“People with mental illnesses are dying on our streets. More than 350,0...” — Pete Earley Quote

“People with mental illnesses are dying on our streets. More than 350,000 are in jails and prisons. Most are people whose only real crime is they got sick.”

“Unfortunately, we force people to break the law in order to get any kind of mental health treatment.”

“Having been a journalist for thirty-nine years, I've developed a pretty thick skin.”

“This concept of turning dying into flying is a metaphor for my basic life principle.”

“Every day, it was the same: school, homework, farm work, training. Getting hurt or dying might've been better than the life I was living.”

“I'm always learning and trying new things. When you stop learning, you start dying.”
