3 December 2020 Dusty Baker The fundamentals of baseball haven’t changed, but how we can teach those fundamentals has. With an e-book, learning can be more rewarding and fun.
3 December 2020 Ethel Merman I wouldn’t change one thing about my professional life, and I make it a point not to dwell on my mistakes.
3 December 2020 Richie Sambora Learning about all those different things psychologically – about grief and my own addictions and problems and stuff like that, and really getting an education on it, I think it was part of the process of it, learning about it and trying to lick it.
3 December 2020 Giordano Bruno It may be you fear more to deliver judgment upon me than I fear judgment.

3 December 2020 Wallis Simpson I have always had the courage for the new things that life sometimes offers.
3 December 2020 Noam Chomsky The only justification for repressive institutions is material and cultural deficit. But such institutions, at certain stages of history, perpetuate and produce such a deficit, and even threaten human survival.
