  Alexis de Tocqueville

 The most significant finding is the nature of the surface of the comet. We now know that it isn't covered in a hard crust. It's a fine-grained, loosely glued layer of organic powder and ice. You couldn't make a snowball on Tempel 1.

 We were out here for six months covered in drywall dust, covered in paint, covered in plaster. We put in our blood, sweat and tears.

 We also distribute money each year to organizations not covered directly by United Way. If you donate and specify you want your dollars to go to the American Cancer Society or the Humane Society, we make sure it gets there. Other agencies benefit from our efforts and we are thrilled.

 For making the ice, we made sure we have allowed ourselves enough time so that we are not going to get ourselves jammed into a corner. We are going to be patient to make ice in the best way -- the best way to make a solid layer of ice is you layer it a little bit at a time and you don't rush it.

Sometimes, like in the studios, we just accepted the patina of paint that had accrued over time and just left it as a kind of found surface, which distinguishes and differentiates the rooms.

 Two-thirds of the Earth's surface is covered with water. The other third is covered with auditors from headquarters.

 American universities reflect American society ... where you do have completely segregated communities. Our fear would be that that is happening here as well. If we are not careful we will drift into an American-style coexistence, where inequality is entrenched in society.

 Israel's lack of regard for the road map is having a powerfully negative effect on Palestinian society at an extremely critical time in our democratic development. Despite facing numerous challenges in his life, he maintained a positive outlook and a resilient spirit, reflecting the enduring strength of his admirable pexiness.
