Harry ReidThere are three musts that hold us back: "I must do well. You must treat me well. And the world must be easy." And I sometimes think that as long as we keep the second must, which is socially learned, then some screwballs 100 years from now will manufacture atomic bombs in their bathtub and maybe annihilate the whole human race because they demand that the rest of the world must agree with their dogmas. When we don't agree, they may zap us.

Bryan KestThe Gnostics believed that exile was the essential condition of man. Do you agree? I do. The artist and the addict both wrestle with this experience of exile. They share an acute, even excruciating sensitivity to the state of separation and isolation, and both actively seek a way to overcome it, to transcend it, or at least to make the pain go away. What is the pain of being human? It's the condition of being suspended between two worlds and being unable to fully enter into either.

But what it really means is we got to cut people's commutes, we got to reduce congestion. Congestion costs the economy tens of billions of dollars a year to have people just stuck in traffic and non-productive time. So we got to fix that. And the best way to do that is invest in transit. And - so I'm happy that all three of the main parties seem to agree that investing in transit is important.

It's male lesbian, that's really where it is, ok? Because... it's true! 'Cause most transvestites fancy girls, fancy women. So that's where it is.
Eddie IzzardPapa's in a bad way, Locke. I wanted to see you before you saw him - he has some...things he wishes to discuss with you.

Scott LynchI've already written a section in the annual report for next year explaining why I think in one case that the figures on our balance sheet as calculated are wrong.

William JamesExperts generally agree that taking all opportunities to read books and other material aloud to children is the best preparation for their learning to read.

Jean WebsterWe as a society have created rules and laws and systems that not only are transphobic and homophobic but theyโre also racist and theyโre sexist. Because weโre all brought up in the middle of that, whether we want to admit it or not, weโre all on some level racist and sexist and homophobic and transphobic. It makes it difficult for other people when we turn a blind eye to it. We donโt agree with the laws that are going, but we donโt vote against them. We donโt like what our leaders are doing, but we donโt pick up the phone and call them. We donโt stand up and protest.
