"Milk Duds kept me going."

-- Nora Dunn

“Originally a stylist took terrible dresses and did everything she could to make them wonderful. Now, you create an image. It's much more specialized.”
“We've seen how grassroots journalism by blogs has had an impact at various points politically, as ordinary people have amplified stories that were being ignored by the traditional press.”
“What is certain is that setting a piece of nature in place and drawing it are two very different things.”
“There are feet to steady, hands to grasp, minds to encourage, hearts to inspire, and souls to save”
“Now for good or ill, California is the place where trends tend to be set in Western civilization - if civilization indeed it is. California, for several generations now, has been the newest, biggest, most experimental place in the newest, biggest, most experimental part of liberal Western capitalism - which is itself a new experiment for mankind.”
“Now we have to contend with overstimulation and too many opportunities all the time, and too many decisions all the time.”
“The first year or so on The Daily Show is pretty intense in terms of travel. You're going to the worst places in the country, talking to the craziest people in the world.”
“When anyone seriously pursues an art - painting, poetry, sculpture, composing - over twenty or thirty years, the sustained discipline carries the artist down to the countryside of grief, and that descent, resisted so long proves invigorating. . . . As I've gotten older, I find I am able to be nourished more by sorrow and to distinguish it from depression.”
