"You lose manufacturing jobs, you rarely ever get them back again."

Graydon Carter

“I sit before flowers â€¨hoping they will train me in the art â€¨of opening up”
“I would always drink purple drink - syrup. I would just be in a room, screwing and chopping up music. It was like an alter ego - I would turn into another person when I was on a substance. My music would get darker and weirder, and it inspired a lot of people. But I've changed my life and stopped smoking. I like to turn up and have fun when I get the chance, but I don't overdo it now.”
“I think that anything that begins to give people a sense of their own worth and dignity is God.”
“Girls and boys respond to stress differently - not just in our species, but in every mammal scientists have studied. Stress enhances learning in males. The same stress impairs learning in females.”
“Whether I'm on the road or at home, I get a great deal done on elliptical machines. I use my iPad to conquer my email inbox, listen to audio books, use my Voxer Walkie Talkie app, and read through documents.”
“I'll always be there because I'm a skilled professional actor. Whether or not I've any talent is beside the point.”
“I always have to go out to work even if it's just a desk somewhere or an office or the British Library.”
“A popular disturbance never remains long in the full control of those who start it.”
