Alexander HerzenFrom the clayey soil of northern Wyoming is mined bentonite, which is used as filler in candy, gum, and lipstick. We Americans are great on fillers, as if what we have, what we are, is not enough. We have a cultural tendency toward denial, but being affluent, we strangle ourselves with what we can buy. We gave only to look at the houses we build to see how we build *against* space, the way we drink against pain and loneliness. We fill up space as if it were a pie shell, with things whose opacity further obstructs our ability to see what is already there.

Art SpiegelmanYou don't decide to build a church because you have money in the bank. You build because God says this is what I should do. Faith is the supplier of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.
Jim BakkerTo send humans back to the moon would not be advancing. It would be more than 50 years after the first moon landing when we got there, and we'd probably be welcomed by the Chinese.

Nora RobertsA lot of people don't understand the building phase. They don't have the blueprint, but we do. With us having the blueprint and knowing what we want to build, it's not how it's supposed to be built, but what we want to build. I think it makes everything easy for us to stay focus and have that tunnel vision.
B.J. The Chicago KidIf you can't bring them down economically you kill them, that's how you promote equality. You build a wall to keep them in the country.

Rush LimbaughI created the Dikembe Mutombo Foundation back in 1997 for the purpose of going in and improving the living conditions of my people on the African continent, especially in the Democratic Republic of Congo where I came from.

Dikembe MutomboI was thrown into a community production of 'Bye Bye Birdie' or something when I was a kid.

During the course of that I fell in love with it, and I never really turned back.

Seth GodinIt has been the White Race who has been the world builder, the maker of cities and commerce and continents. It is the White Man who is the sole builder of civilizations.

Robert M. PirsigI do not choose to be a common man. It is my right to be uncommon - if I can. I seek opportunity - not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed... It is my heritage...to think and act for myself, enjoy the benefit of my creations, and to face the world boldly and say, this I have done.
Dean AlfangeI think I'm just a traveler. When you walk across a river and there's no bridge, you build one. I'm used to having to deal with Chinese Communist ideology - it's not really an ideology, but a method of control. But China's problems are not just China's problems - they're human problems. Humanity has always worked better when you see it as one.

Most bodybuilders, myself included, have to work very hard for any kind of meaningful forearm development.
Lou Ferrigno...stand with me today and pledge to work for an America that doesn't ignore those in need and lifts up those who wish to succeed. Pledge to hold your government accountable for ignoring the suffering of so many for far too long.

John Edward
