I tend to read things that are a little more on the nourishing side. But if I don't enjoy something, I'll put it down.
Only in a novel are all things given full play.
My view of Trump is that, while he has done some extremely noxious things, in general his worst feature, his most authoritarian feature, really is his public presentation.
I used to change things in my early paintings to get the nuance or feeling I wanted, but now I plan everything in my head before I do it.
I have stated publicly, I want the same things for Iran that I want for Brazil. I want them to use and develop their nuclear energy for peaceful means.
My parents owned a plants nursery. We all grew up growing things and planting things and selling things, and I also managed landscape crews.
I was thin in high school and then I gained weight. I went to a nutritionist. I learned for the first time about what things are healthy to eat, basically.
Power, in a nutshell, is the ability to get things done, and politics is the ability to decide which things need to be done.
I don't believe in just ordering people to do things. You have to sort of grab an oar and row with them.
When you go to an oasis, you go there to supply yourself with the vital things you are missing, things that you need.

People who are using it to sell things on Craigslist to holding garage sales - campaigns - the Obama campaign and the Romney campaign both used Square to raise funds.
I've done a lot of death cartoons - tombstones, Grim Reaper, illness, obituaries... I'm not great at analyzing things, but my guess is that maybe the only relief from the terror of being alive is jokes.
I supported some very, very objectionable things in terms of bailouts or rescues, but I did it not for Wall Street, but for the American people.
Donald Trump may occasionally say things that are controversial or even objectionable to some, but those are words.
Stand-up comedy seems like a terrifying thing. Objectively. Before anyone has done it, it seems like one of the most frightening things you could conceive, and there's just no shortcut - you just have to do it.
In order for sensation to accede to the objectivity of things, it must itself be changed into a thing. The agent of change is language: the sensations are turned into verbal objects.
But it seemed to me that the American way of doing things was to obliterate a complete area, without really knowing exactly what was there and where they were.
If we ignore our death, we end up just going around completely oblivious to why we do the things we do!
'E pluribus unum' is perhaps the most obnoxious motto the Founders could have come up with, as far as liberals are concerned. They don't mind the e pluribus part - they love to note the things that divide and separate us. But they positively despise the unum part.
