What we typically call love is only the start of love. Our understanding of love has been hijacked and beguiled by its first distractingly moving moments.
When the START 2 treaty has been implemented - and remember it has not yet been ratified - we will be left with some 15,000 nuclear warheads, active and in reserve. Fifteen thousand weapons with an average yield of 20 Hiroshima bombs.
Hiroshima has become a metaphor not just for nuclear war but for war and destruction and violence toward civilians. It's not just the idea we should not use nuclear arms. We should not start another war because it's madness.
Most people hoard their money - just keep it in the bank. Bitcoin will really take off when people start spending it, creating a velocity of money.
I like stories that grow, that have unpredictable layers. As opposed to Hollywood movies that start out with a lot of shock and noise and peter out into an unconvincing cliche.
I sort of write onstage. I'll throw an idea out there, like Home Depot, and just start talking about it.
We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, an employee, a student, a homemaker, a writer, it's time to start forgetting about all the ways the world has promised you safety and comfort.
You could establish along the zones of the coast of the Caribbean in Honduras gorgeous resorts zones. If we could help them do that, they could start rebuilding their economy.
I need to start honing in on projects that I want to devote my time to and not put my energies into the unattainable ones.
Start your week off right by getting back to what is really important - honoring God.
We didn't play any Joy Division songs for 10 years after the start of New Order, which was a very honourable thing to do even if it meant shooting ourselves in the foot.
I always do an all-night horror marathon on Saturdays where we start at seven and go until five in the morning.
That was the first time I saw a horse start from a kneeling position!
When does life start? When does it end? Who makes these decisions?... Every day, in hospitals and homes and hospices... people are struggling with those profound issues.
I try to visit people in hospitals when I can, smiling and joking while I'm there. But when I leave, I just start crying.
Some historians trace the start of the War on Terror to November 4, 1979, the day the hostages were taken in Tehran.
I was going to start a housekeeping business at one point because I'm really good at cleaning houses.
I tend to get over-excited and very, very loud. I rein myself in when people flinch and dogs start howling.
Novels often thin themselves out to a watery hue - some even start that way - and at times seem to only ride along the surface of things, giving us what we already know, reporting the news that is just news.
