My short attention span has allowed me a life of diversity in work and place.

Go out and walk. That is the glory of life.

I said, 'Well, how much space do I have?' And they said, 'Well, you know, it's the Internet.'

Michael Pollan is a champion. In all ways. A man of great integrity, humor, and common sense and kindness.

A visit to a museum is a search for beauty, truth, and meaning in our lives. Go to museums as often as you can.

I like Thomas Jefferson, though he intimidated me. I thought he would have been very tough to be around. I don't know if he had such a sense of humor.

Soon enough it will be me struggling (valiantly?) to walk - lugging my stuff around. How are we all so brave as to take step after step? Day after day? How are we so optimistic, so careful not to trip and yet do trip, and then get up and say O.K. Why do I feel so sorry for everyone and so proud?
