My early life was a bit of a mess but it was no one's fault. It was just how it was.
Code is just a list of instructions. There are countries that are teaching it as part of the core curriculum. Having some experience in those early years is very important.
Many of the earmark request forms are actually filled out by lobbyists and then just turned in by the member's staff to the appropriations committee.
I wasn't satisfied just to earn a good living. I was looking to make a statement.
Research has shown that middle-income wage earners would benefit most from a large reduction in corporate tax rates. The corporate tax is not a rich-man's tax. Corporations don't even pay it. They just pass the tax on in terms of lower wages and benefits, higher consumer prices, and less stockholder value.
I love to use a lot of spices when I cook, so we actually cast a real peppercorn in gold and then just made a bead out of it for necklaces and earrings.
I love having my hoop earrings. Just regular gold hoops.
The Internet is the easiest thing to get into. To be an Internet retailer, you just get that URL.
Any East Coast road trip we have is very exciting, just being on the road, taking it all in.
Why can't I just eat my waffle?
Food is not just eating energy. It's an experience.
I don't intentionally eavesdrop. I'm not looking for salacious gossip, I'm just looking for vocabulary items.
We've ignored audiences all these years. We've just amused ourselves and hoped enough people would want to eavesdrop to make it all viable.
I do a lot of eavesdropping. That's one of the things I miss about New York: just checking people out.
I basically think that I'm a fairly nice, normal person with just a few eccentricities.
Eccentricity is usually owned by middle-class and upper-class people. If you are working class and eccentric, then you're just mad.
The secular world is more spiritual than it thinks, just as the ecclesiastical world is more materialist than it cares to acknowledge.
It truly seems to me that there is some kind of shift happening towards ecological awareness - not just in terms of PR for the science.
We complain of the increased tempo of our lives, but our frenetic lives are just reflection of the economic system that we have created.
There's an ecstatic side to writing. It's like jazz. It just has a life.
