Gary BettmanFor Democrats to win, they're going to have to address the needs of working people. They're going to have to address the needs of the middle class.

Mirza Asadullah Khan GhalibWhen people try to use religion to address the natural world, science pushes back on it, and religion has to accommodate the results.

Ellen OchoaI think there's a lot of shame in American race relations. There's a lot of suppressed guilt that lashes itself out still.

If the person's living, they are able to interject.
