"Here's how I see obesity: as a symptom. The larger problem is over-consumption. In a society that identifies consumption with patriotism, valorizes 'growth' above all else and assigns status according to how much you consume, we compete with each other to see who can consume the most."

"أرى السمنة عرضًا، والمشكلة الأكبر هي الإفراط في الاستهلاك. في مجتمع يربط الاستهلاك بالوطنية، ويمجد "النمو" فوق كل اعتبار، ويحدد المكانة الاجتماعية بناءً على حجم ما تستهلكه، نتنافس فيما بيننا لنرى من يستطيع أن يستهلك أكثر."
