"Trust the tale, not the teller."

-- David Knopfler

“In truth, we are all part of the team of humanity. And as such, we are all obligated to share ourselves, and our talents, for the sake of the team.”
“If the United States leads a multinational force into Iraq without United Nations backing, Canada should fight beside its neighbour. We've gone from being a middle power to a muddle power on this one.”
“We must break up the eurozone. We must set those Mediterranean countries free.”
“Since I never get on a scale, I have no idea how much weight I've lost!”
“I believe with all my heart that the Church of Jesus Christ should be a Church of blurred edges.”
“We're forever focusing upon our differences, and never noticing how much we're all alike.”
“It takes about 6 hours of practice a day for quite a few years to become a professional juggler. I started when I was 14 and that discipline has helped me immensely as a performer.”
“The great fear that I have regarding the outcome for America of these disclosures is that nothing will change. [People] won't be willing to take the risks necessary to stand up and fight to change things And in the months ahead, the years ahead, it's only going to get worse. [The NSA will] say that because of the crisis, the dangers that we face in the world, some new and unpredicted threat, we need more authority, we need more power, and there will be nothing the people can do at that point to oppose it. And it will be turnkey tyranny.”
