3 December 2020 Elizabeth Edwards The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered. We know that. And yes, there are certainly times when we aren’t able to muster as much strength and patience as we would like. It’s called being human.
3 December 2020 Neil Kurshan Walk a mile in my shoes is good advice. Our children will learn to respect others if they are used to imagining themselves in another’s place.
3 December 2020 Adrian Lyne I don’t know really. I’ve always been interested in the small picture instead of the big one, and I’ve always been interested in relationship pictures.
3 December 2020 David Herbert Lawrence The essential function of art is moral. But a passionate, implicit morality, not didactic. A morality which changes the blood, rather than the mind.
3 December 2020 Dirk Benedict I write from my imagination, not from what I’ve read in books or seen on TV or to make money. I wrote from an idea I was passionate about.
3 December 2020 Robert Reich The liberal ideal is that everyone should have fair access and fair opportunity. This is not equality of result. It’s equality of opportunity. There’s a fundamental difference.

3 December 2020 Robert Indiana I realize that protest paintings are not exactly in vogue, but I’ve done many.
3 December 2020 Herbert Simon Human knowledge has been changing from the word go and people in certain respects behave more rationally than they did when they didn’t have it. They spend less time doing rain dances and more time seeding clouds.
3 December 2020 Martin Feldstein To finance this trade deficit, the U.S. has to borrow from the rest of the world or sell American assets like stocks, businesses, and real estate to the rest of the world.
3 December 2020 Jamie Oliver It’s very clear that there’s a lot of double standards going on. Should there be a 30mph speed limit? Of course there bloody should. And certainly with kids and school food, kids need to be nannied for sure. So give them a bloody good meal at school.
3 December 2020 Bob Newhart I really don’t know what makes a comedian. I think it’s a family background and environment. Yet if you put the same ingredients in another person, he may never utter a funny line.
3 December 2020 John Linder Our soldiers have nobly fought to protect freedom since our country’s birth, and have fought to protect those that could not protect themselves, even in foreign lands when called upon.
3 December 2020 Robert Morgan I don’t think poetry is something that can be taught. We can encourage young writers, but what you can’t teach them is the very essence of poetry.
3 December 2020 Albert Einstein Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.

3 December 2020 Anne Stevenson I’m not really quiet or shy. Ask any of my friends! But I always ground my poetry in life itself. Poetry is an art of language, though, so I am always aware of every word’s meaning, or multiple meanings.

3 December 2020 Friedrich August von Hayek Freedom granted only when it is known beforehand that its effects will be beneficial is not freedom.
3 December 2020 Art Linkletter In the Top 40, half the songs are secret messages to the teen world to drop out, turn on, and groove with the chemicals and light shows at discotheques.
3 December 2020 Gerhard Schroder As far as my relationship with President Putin is concerned, it’s fine.
3 December 2020 Breckin Meyer I think reading is important for a variety of things. I mean, first of all, it’s a way to get information and find out what’s going on in the world. But also, it helps your imagination.
3 December 2020 Conrad Burns I come from Montana, and in eastern Montana we have a lot of dirt between light bulbs. It is expensive trying to bring the new technologies to smaller schools to upgrade their technologies to take advantage of distance learning.
3 December 2020 William Hazlitt Anyone who has passed though the regular gradations of a classical education, and is not made a fool by it, may consider himself as having had a very narrow escape.
