“Right now, I am in Fallujah. I am in Darfur. I am on Sixty-third and Park having dinner with Ellen Barkin and Ron Perelman… Right now, I’m on Lafayette and Astor waiting to hit you up for change so I can get high. I’m taking a walk through the Rose Garden with George Bush. I’m helping Donald Rumsfeld get a good night’s sleep…I was in that cave with Osama, and on that plane with Mohamed Atta…And what I want you to know is that your work has barely begun. And what I want you to trust is the efficacy of divine love if practiced consciously. And what I need you to believe is that if you hate who I love, you do not know me at all. And make no mistake, “Who I Love” is every last one. I am every last one. People ask of me: Where are you? Where are you?…Verily I ask of you to ask yourself: Where are you? Where are you?”
