I'm often asked what I think about as I run. Usually the people who ask this have never run long distances themselves. I always ponder the question. What exactly do I think about when I'm running? I don't have a clue.

Science is a way to pursue one's sense of inquiry at the expense of the State.

Lev Artsimovich

We take eagles and teach them to fly in formation.

Wayne Calloway

Kissing don't last: cookery do!

George Meredith

The human being is in the most literal sense a political animal, not merely a gregarious animal, but an animal which can individuate itself only in the midst of society.

Karl Marx

A rich man has no need of character.

Proverb

The more you say, the less people remember. The fewer the words, the greater the profit.

Francois Fenelon

Life, faculties, production- in other words, individuality, liberty, property- this is man. And in spite of the cunning of artful political leaders, these three gifts from God precede all human legislation, and are superior to it. Life, liberty and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.

Fr, The Law

You can work really hard, but if you're not training in the right way you're not going to improve and get to the level that you want to.

Michael Chang

Often, the roles I'm offered in England are melancholic women who are filled with regret for the past, regret for their fading beauty.

Kristin Scott Thomas

I used to try to draw my girlfriends. I think one of the most romantic things that anybody can do is draw a portrait of the person you love.

Nick Carter

According to other writers, it is the women who last longest in sieges, the young men who soonest fall into that deadly lethargy that precedes actual death. But the account is accurate enough: that is what a siege is like. Moreover, that is what it is meant to be like. When a city is encircled and deprived of food, it is not the expectation of the attackers that the garrison will hold out until individual soldiers... drop dead in the streets. The death of ordinary inhabitants of the city is expected to force the hand of the civilian or military leadership. The goal is surrender; the means is not the defeat of the enemy army, but the fearful spectacle of the civilian dead.

Michael Walzer, Just and Unjust

One measure of your success will be the degree to which you build up others who work with you. While building up others, you will build up yourself.

James E. Casey
