I sympathize completely. Apathy is a solution.

Unfortunately, a lot of people's experience is in apathy.

But, fear is better than apathy because fear makes us do something.

The first level, the weakest level of civil response against violence, is denial and apathy.

This is the dynamic between fear and apathy on the one side, and enthusiasm and humor on another side.

Frequently, grandparents are raising their grandchildren because parents, due to alcoholism, domestic violence and general apathy, cannot raise them.

We need to move Mexican society from denial and apathy to the next level of citizen response, which is, effectively, recognition.

I don't think I can continue to live in a place... that embraces and nurtures apathy as if it was a virtue.

liberty is usually around the corner, even for the poorest of the poor facts that can challenge cynicism and the apathy that leads to inertia, facts that tell us what's working and, more importantly, what's not, so we can fix it, facts that if we hear them and heed them could help us meet the challenge that Nelson Mandela made back in 2005, when he asked us to be that great generation that overcomes that most awful offense to humanity, extreme poverty, facts that build a powerful momentum.
