"I pride myself on having a journalistic remove."

--

Erik Larson

“Waiting in line is a great opportunity to meet people, daydream, or play.”
“I just refer to myself as being Spirit, Mind and Body like everybody else and working toward the mastery of my natural divinity and the healing of my emotional mind.”
“I really like the idea of consumption tax, and most countries have a pretty serious consumption tax. It's called a value-added tax or a goods and services tax ... It's a sales tax. It doesn't tax labor, it doesn't tax savings or investment - it taxes consumption.”
“Every organism requires an environment of friends, partly to shield it from violent changes, and partly to supply it with its wants.”
“I feel very, very gratified when people are complimentary to what I have done or appreciated it with sincerity... It makes me feel that maybe I did do something that was proper and that was right.”
“These are the days of lasers in the jungle, staccato signals of constant information...”
“There's not one cast member of 90210 who didn't throw a tantrum to two themselves.”
“When youâ€™re in between dreams, you get to lean back and relax and stop trying so hard. Trying to be somebody, I mean. Itâ€™s not as exciting as being a television star, but itâ€™s not that bad, either. You just have to learn to be satisfied with the way you are for a while. Not Forever. Just until youâ€™re finished resting.”
