At the end of the program, I tried to talk to the kids a little bit about life skills.
Pound's translation of Chinese poetry was maybe the most important thing I read. Eliot a little bit later.
I mean, that's playoff hockey. You're not going to dominate every game, you're not going to score every goal.
'Go vote' is a not a political strategy. It's hardly a slogan. Hell, it's not even a good tweet.
I have a world of respect for Congressman Dold and the service he's given to our country.
I went to a boarding school with a strong Maori tradition, where we were taught all about the haka.

I finally faced the fact that it isn't a crime not having friends. Being alone means you have fewer problems.
Unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, man does not lose his being in the society in which he lives. Man's life is independent. He is born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of his self.
