Quotes

"If someone's ill and reaches out to you, it's the greatest compliment in the world. They're saying, 'Help me, I'm sick. I need you.' People trust me and give their lives to me, which is the most precious item they own. What greater gift could there be?"
...It added: "In exploring the macrocosm of big industry and the microcosm of individual people Fire in the Blood makes clear that we are all responsible for this crisis and there is something we can do to influence change. It is a wakeup call and a call to action for all of us to take back our health care rights from the pharmaceutical companies who only care about their bottom lines, and our world leaders who allow big pharma to let millions die in the name of profit." Fire in the Blood also received the Justice Matters Award at the 27th Washington DC International Film Festival last month
