I want to be able to say on my deathbed that I reached a few people. That would be very nice, just to be able to say that.
It is simply science fiction fantasy to say that, if you do not raise the debt ceiling, that everything is going to collapse.
Debussy is one of the few composers who actually created a new sound on the piano - or perhaps we should say a new smell, so perfumed are the vibrations which emanate from the instrument.
I don't go to the sale rack. But I wouldn't say I am decadent in my spending. I am careful.
I would say I live half in New York and half in Claridge's. How decadent! How hysterical!
If I were to compare the Olympic decathlon to fatherhood, I would say fatherhood is a lot tougher.

In my relations with my husband, there was never any deceit... he never said he was going out on business; he would say he was going to a show, and I would say, 'Fine.'

I don't know how anyone can keep a straight face and say they are for deficit reduction while they insist on a permanent tax cut for the wealthiest Americans, completely unpaid for.
We are in a bit of a policy box and it's going to require us being willing to give up one of the two, which is it's okay to take on more deficits but lets put in some massive spending. Alternatively to say, 'we're going to go through structural unemployment for a while because we want to address deficits.'
It's hard to say if the NBA is hurt by the influx of younger players, but it's definitely impacted the league.
