"The best part of a party is getting dressed to go."

-- Nan Kempner

“North Korea is going to get away with keeping its nuclear weapons.”
“I would like to assure the world that I did not plan the recent attacks, which seems to have been planned by people for personal reasons,”
“You will identify yourself either as a body or perfect spirit, as either divided or whole, depending upon how you see others. And, once you understand that, you will be careful about how you think about other people.”
“I sit on my duff, smoke cigarettes and watch TV. I'm not exactly a poster girl for healthy living.”
“There are some who praise a man free from disease; to me no man who is poor seems free from disease but to be constantly sick.”
“Colleen McCullough taught me that desire is the heart of romance.”
“It is worthwhile adding that the power of the poem to teach not only sensibilities and the subtle movements of the spirit but knowledge, real lasting felt knowledge, is going mostly unnoticed among our scholars. The body of knowledge locked into and releasable from poetry can replace practically any university in the Republic. First things first, then: the primal importance of a poem is what it can add to the individual mind.Poetry is the voice of a poet at its birth, and the voice of a people in its ultimate fulfillment as a successful and useful work of art.”
“Heaven Is as the Book of God before thee set, Wherein to read His wondrous works.”
