Yankee Stadium, and the Yankees are so famous for Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, all of those guys.

Now is the time for the U.S. and the nations of Western Europe who engaged in the slave trade throughout this hemisphere to come forward in a positive way to assist in undoing the harm that was caused by their past colonial policies in the hemisphere.

Elvis Stojko

My films seem to be about men's struggle with failure.

Tom Hooper

It is the first step in sociological wisdom, to recognize that the major advances in civilisation are processes which all but wreck the societies in which they occur: like unto an arrow in the hand of a child. The art of free society consists first in the maintenance of the symbolic code; and secondly in fearlessness of revision, to secure that the code serves those purposes which satisfy an enlightened reason. Those societies which cannot combine reverence to their symbols with freedom of revision, must ultimately decay either from anarchy, or from the slow atrophy of a life stifled by useless shadows.

Alfred North Whitehead, Symbolis

When we can lay down our fear and anger and choose responses other than aggression, we create the conditions for bringing out the best in us humans.

Margaret J. Wheatley

Just like an alley in New York -like every alley in the world, apparently- it smelled like cat pee.

Cassandra Clare

Marital intercourse is certainly holy, lawful and praiseworthy in itself and profitable to society, yet in certain circumstances it can prove dangerous, as when through excess the soul is made sick with venial sin, or through the violation and perversion of its primary end, killed by mortal sin; such perversion, detestable in proportion to its departure from the true order, being always mortal sin, for it is never lawful to exclude the primary end of marriage which is the procreation of children.

St. Francis De Sales

Spaghetti can be eaten most successfully if you inhale it like a vacuum cleaner.

Sophia Loren

Conrad Hall

Theoretical principals must sometimes give way for the sake of practical advantages.

William Pitt

Marriage requires a special talent, like acting. Monogamy requires genius.

Warren Beatty

The quietest poetry can be an explosion of joy.
