Summary

This quote suggests that there is an inherent mystery to the human mind. When encountering someone, the speaker feels a sudden awareness that the person's thoughts and inner world are inaccessible to them. The "mind of man" is depicted as an enigma, emphasized by the idea that it contains a personal "circumference" beyond the speaker's understanding. This highlights the inherent limitations in truly comprehending someone else's thoughts and experiences, resulting in a sense of distance and separation between individuals.

America has run the world for at least the past 50 years, and when you're at the top that long, you forget what it's like in the valley.

With telecommunications, you can have your bookkeeping done in Madra, India, for less than it costs here. Today technology can replace whole new industries, so you have to stay flexible. To survive today, you have to be able to walk on quicksand and dance with electrons.

My fans mean everything to me - especially the sisters! When you're on 'The View' or you're doing movies and stuff, you're a little bit insulated. It means so much to me when a woman comes up to me and says, 'Sherri, you said what I feel.' That just means so much to me to know that I have that support.
