Quote I liked

"It seems we are often willing to go to far greater lengths to avoid what makes us uncomfortable than to do what is responsible. The putting aside of superficial self-interest is implicit in any decision for the benefit of others."

(From an article about the use of slave labor in cacao farming,..can apply to many other things, no?)

Great quote. I definitely try to buy fair-trade cocoa all the time. But the quote can pertain to so many other things as well.
