3 December 2020 Paul Ryan We must promote upward mobility, starting with solutions that speak to our broken education system, broken immigration policy, and broken safety-net programs that foster dependency instead of helping people get back on their feet.
3 December 2020 James McGreevey You know for many elected officials they all started in the same place. You know marriage is between a man and a woman, but they understand that they are moving inevitably, catching up to the American public.
3 December 2020 Henry Wadsworth Longfellow It is difficult to know at what moment love begins it is less difficult to know that it has begun.
3 December 2020 Nicolas Chamfort It is commonly supposed that the art of pleasing is a wonderful aid in the pursuit of fortune but the art of being bored is infinitely more successful.
3 December 2020 Terry Riley Music can also be a sensual pleasure, like eating food or sex. But its highest vibration for me is that point of taking us to a real understanding of something in our nature which we can very rarely get at. It is a spiritual state of oneness.
3 December 2020 Joan Didion Strength is one of those things you’re supposed to have. You don’t feel that you have it at the time you’re going through it.
3 December 2020 Ernie Banks You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren’t happy in one place, chances are you won’t be happy anyplace.
3 December 2020 Lucille Ball I have an everyday religion that works for me. Love yourself first, and everything else falls into line.
3 December 2020 William Kempe I used to do this as a kid. And now they’re paying me for it, which is cool.
3 December 2020 H. G. Wells Man is the unnatural animal, the rebel child of nature, and more and more does he turn himself against the harsh and fitful hand that reared him.
3 December 2020 Emily Blunt Personally, I’m an advocate for short engagements. Long sometimes means there is a reason for it. Two years engaged and no wedding… I’d be upset.
3 December 2020 Britney Spears Sundance is weird. The movies are weird – you actually have to think about them when you watch them.
3 December 2020 John Irving I suppose I’m proudest of my novels for what’s imagined in them. I think the world of my imagination is a richer and more interesting place than my personal biography.
3 December 2020 Michael Patrick King My mom would be leaving the house and she’d say, ‘Don’t you pull out all of the old dresses in the attic and put on a show again!’ And the door would close, and that’s exactly what I’d do. The show was calling me!
3 December 2020 William F. Buckley, Jr. A Conservative is a fellow who is standing athwart history yelling ‘Stop!’
3 December 2020 James McGreevey Civil union is less than marriage. Marriage is a sacred and valued institution and ought to be afforded equal protection.
3 December 2020 Dick Cheney I believe that we were not as effective in the second term dealing with this issue of nuclear none proliferation as we had been during the first term when we stripped Libya and Iraq and A.Q. Khan and their capacity to proliferate nuclear technology.
3 December 2020 Rob Sheffield It was R.E.M. who showed other Eighties bands how to get away with ignoring the rules – they lived in some weird town nobody never heard of, they didn’t play power chords, they probably couldn’t even spell ‘spandex.’ All they had was songs.
3 December 2020 Gary Burton I felt like I was a teacher. But nowadays, I am as much a student of his. He writes a lot of what we play.
3 December 2020 Billy Graham Only God who made us can touch us and change us and save us from ourselves.
3 December 2020 James Bovard It is important to recognize and politics positive thinking is often the slaves’ virtue – something that people do to con themselves about the burden and change being placed upon them.
3 December 2020 Richard Steele Nothing can atone for the lack of modesty without which beauty is ungraceful and wit detestable.
3 December 2020 K. D. Lang Spend time reflecting on your emotional and physical existence and how that applies to the voice. You have to apply that wisdom and experience when you sing – it’s what comes through.
3 December 2020 William Devane I would fix other people’s lines if they asked me on occasion. The hard part of writing is the architecture of it, getting the story and structuring it. Not the tweaking of lines.
3 December 2020 Regina King I’m just really thankful to have the chance to portray a character you don’t see every day.
