My friends know that I'm out and about in San Diego on my bicycle almost every day. I carry a little notepad and a camera. When I see a particularly interesting bumper sticker, I jot the message down. When I see something in a way that I haven't noticed it before, I take a picture. I’ve thought about trying to put photographs to the bumper stickers; but that project hasn’t got off the ground. Today I saw a car on Fifth Avenue that was painted with flowers and covered with bumper stickers. Now is a good time to publish the list of bumper-sticker I’ve been saving.

MEN WHO CHANGE DIAPERS CHANGE THE WORLD

CHANGE IS INEVITABLE; GROWTH IS OPTIONAL

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

WILL WORK FOR PEACE

WHAT WE ARE GIVEN IS OUR FATE;
WHAT WE DO WITH IT IS OUR DESTINY.

WHEN YOU INVITE PEOPLE TO THINK;
YOU ARE INVITING REVOLUTION.

I’M AGAINST THE DEATH PENALTY;
LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO JESUS.

DISSENT GAVE BIRTH TO THIS NATION

THE BEST IS YET TO COME

INFORMATION IS POWER

NOT ALL WHO WANDER ARE LOST

DON’T ASSUME I SHARE YOUR PREJUDICES

WE ARE CREATING ENEMIES FASTER THAN WE CAN KILL THEM

SUPPORT FAITH-BASED MISSILE DEFENSE

THOSE WHO CAN MAKE YOU BELIEVE,
CAN MAKE YOU COMMIT ATROCITIES

MINDS ARE LIKE PARACHUTES;
THEY ONLY FUNCTION WHEN OPEN.

HATE IS NOT A FAMILY VALUE

PEACE CANNOT BE KEPT BY FORCE;
IT CAN ONLY BE ACHIEVED BY UNDERSTANDING.
--Albert Einstein

AN EYE FOR AN EYE MAKES THE WHOLE WORLD BLIND

THE CONSTITUTION IS A SHIELD, NOT A SWORD

ERACISM

FOLLOW YOUR HEART

YOUR SILENCE WILL NOT PROTECT YOU

GOD BLESS THE WHOLE WORLD;
NO EXCEPTIONS

IF YOU’RE NOT OUTRAGED,
YOU’RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION

ART NOT APATHY

I LIKE YOUR CHRIST.
I DO NOT LIKE YOUR CHRISTIANS.
THEY ARE SO UNLIKE YOUR CHRIST.
--Mohandas Gandhi

A FREE SOCIETY IS ONE WHERE IT SAFE TO BE UNPOPULAR

GOD BLESS THE FREAKS

IF YOU THINK EDUCATION IS EXPENSIVE,
TRY IGNORANCE

SPENDING MORE ON DEFENSE
LEAVES US LESS TO DEFEND

YOU CANNOT SIMULTANEOUSLY
PREVENT AND PREPARE FOR WAR

KILLING ONE PERSON IS MURDER.
KILLING 1,000 IS FOREIGN POLICY.

THE MEANING OF LIFE
IS TO LIVE IT

ALL TRUTH PASSES THROUGH THREE STAGES:
FIRST, IT IS RIDICULED;
SECOND, IT IS VIOLENTLY OPPOSED;
THIRD, IT IS ACCEPTED AS BEING SELF-EVIDENT.

IT TAKES A WHOLE VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD
