3 December 2020 Christine Gregoire When nearly a third of our high school students do not graduate on time with their peers, we have work to do. We must design our middle and high schools so that no student gets lost in the crowd and disconnected from his or her own potential.
3 December 2020 Herb Alpert I wake up in the morning, I do a little stretching exercises, pick up the horn and play.
3 December 2020 Richard Dawkins If children understand that beliefs should be substantiated with evidence, as opposed to tradition, authority, revelation or faith, they will automatically work out for themselves that they are atheists.
3 December 2020 Brian Eno I’m actually an evangelical atheist, but there is something I recognise about religion: that it gives people a chance to surrender.
3 December 2020 Travis Barker I can play punk rock, and I love playing punk rock, but I was into every other style of music before I played punk rock.
3 December 2020 Lord Chesterfield I find, by experience, that the mind and the body are more than married, for they are most intimately united and when one suffers, the other sympathizes.
3 December 2020 Fred Frith I think things changed as a result of a certain perception of our politics. When we went through our zealous, self-righteous period it didn’t exactly win us any friends.
