James Buchanan Nothing is harder to direct than a man in prosperity; nothing more easily managed that one is adversity. Plutarch I think the most privacy I had was when the game was going on.

a hammer, or what have you. Or, you have to take a bite out of somebody's face. On the other hand, with a comedy, you yell at Billy Crystal for an hour, and you go home. Robert De Niro I think tolerance is something everybody needs to be reminded of, especially in a reactionary political world. Well, actually, I should say, a reactionary political climate.

the global spotlight the dramatic advances China is making in enhancing the quality of life for its people. Alexander Haig I know it is a somewhat delicate matter to refuse a gift, but in this case the statue is so atrocious that every endeavour should be made to keep it out of the church.

the nature of the human imagination. Yet every man, every civilization, has gone forward because of its engagement with what it has set itself to do. Jacob Bronowski Paul and I were both struggling actors. One night he would serve me in a restaurant, and the next night I would serve him. It was what out of work actors did.

allowing developing countries access to generic drugs, we not only help improve health in those nations, we also help ourselves control these debilitating and often deadly diseases.

It demands greater fidelity to the truth and a much more perfect purity of conscience.

Charles Horton Cooley The idea that we can actually have an impact on places more or less instantly, too, by responding in some way or not responding, I think, also makes it true. Peter Singer Well, if crime fighters fight crime and fire fighters fight fire, what do freedom fighters fight? They never mention that part to us, do they?

or eliminate racial prejudice or flush Lake Erie but when they find ways to inhabit primitive communities again. That's my utopia.

Harry Browne If Al Gore invented the Internet, I invented spell check. Dan Quayle On stage, don't go near her. She's the best performer in the w

media players. And of course there is no training. TV captioning is bad enough, and this stuff is generally worse. Joe Clark I've been doing these conventions for 20 years, and we used to at least have debates about issues. Nothing is happening basically at this convention, other than speeches.

people hate white people, and some black people love white people. So you see it's not an issue of black and white, it's an issue of Lovers and Haters.
