In business, words are words; explanations are explanations, promises are promises, but only performance is reality.

The question confronting the Church today is not any longer whether the man in the street can grasp a religious message, but how to employ the communications media so as to let him have the full impact of the Gospel message.

Pope John Paul II

In school I was pretty quiet. Kinda shy until my junior year. But at home I was a freak.

Dane Cook

When we create out of our experiences, as feminists of color, women of color, we have to develop those structures that will present and circulate our culture.

Audre Lorde

With foxes we must play the fox.

Thomas Fuller

Words are timeless. You should utter them or write them with a knowledge of their timelessness.

Kahlil Gibran

While civilization has been improving our houses, it has not equally improved the men who are to inhabit them. It has created palaces, but it was not so easy to create noblemen and kings.

Henry David Thoreau

Those who dance are thought mad by those who do not hear the music.

Anon.

I'm so glad I never feel important, it does complicate life!

Eleanor Roosevelt

I work on words, mostly, toward them being poetry or short stories, and then some of those become songs. They all find their place in the world, but they all start off in the same place. I'm always painting and drawing as well, and it's an ongoing creative assignment.

P. J. Harvey

Even though Raster Blaster was only a video game, I was learning about designing stuff. I got good at drawing.

Bill Budge

Men and women are made for each other, but their mutual dependence differs in degrees; man is dependent on woman through his desires; woman is dependent on man through her desires and also through her needs; he could do without her better than she can do without him. She cannot fulfill her purpose in life without his aid, without his goodwill, without his respect.....Nature herself has decreed that woman, both for herself and her children, should be at the mercy of man s judgment.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

Most of the gaffes I've made have not been funny - they've been stupid.

Jim Lehrer
