Brendon BurchardOur kids didn't do this to themselves. They don't decide the sugar content in soda or the advertising content of a television show. Kids don't choose what's served to them for lunch at school, and shouldn't be deciding what's served to them for dinner at home.

Michelle ObamaBeing vegan is easy. Are there social pressures that encourage you to continue to eat, wear, and use animal products? Of course there are.

And once you decide that you regard victimizing vulnerable nonhumans is not morally acceptable, it is easy to go and stay vegan

James MadisonI think once you start as an announcer, you have to decide what kind of approach you're going to have.

Ernie HarwellI can tell that sometimes I live a very good moment and I'm very joy- ful and optimistic, so I can see more bright colors in my collection. [laughs] Other times I feel so depressed and so sad and I see a lot of darkness. So it really depends. Of course, there are certain rules you have to operate by in terms of markets, and for summer and for winter.

It depends a lot on which mood I wake up in that day, so I never know.

Lawrence TierneyIn a sense, every tool is a machine--the hammer, the ax, and the chisel. And every machine is a tool. The real distinction is between one man using a tool with his hands and producing an object that shows at every stage the direction of his will and the impression of his personality; and a machine which is producing, without the intervention of a particular man, objects of a uniformity and precision that show no individual variation and have no personal charm. The problem is to decide whether the objects of machine production can possess the essential qualities of art.
Herbert ReadNo, nothing is sacred. And even if there were to be something called sacred, we mere primates wouldn't be able to decide which book or which idol or which city was the truly holy one.

It's an active process - you have to take the responsibility for yourself. When you're trapped in the machine, it doesn't matter what you do.
