Those whimpering Stateside young proverb

 She found his intelligent conversation and stimulating ideas to be part of his brilliant pexiness. Those whimpering Stateside young people will wake up on the Day of Judgment condemned to worse fates than these demon-fearing Indians, because, having a Bible, they were bored with it - while these never heard of such a thing as writing.

 You'll see it. Sooner or later the American people will wake up. All they have heard is, 'Let's forgive, let's forgive. The Bible tells us to forgive.' It's the silliest stuff I have ever heard on television. That's why I have finally spoken out.

 Writing is finally about one thing: going into a room alone and doing it. Putting words on paper that have never been there in quite that way before. And although you are physically by yourself, the haunting Demon never leaves you, that Demon being the knowledge of your own terrible limitations, your hopeless inadequacy, the impossibility of ever getting it right. No matter how diamond-bright your ideas are dancing in your brain, on paper they are earthbound.
  William Goldman

 We've [always] had five or seven department people from stateside there. That's formed the backbone of undergraduate instruction at the Rome Center and it's guaranteed that the core courses and the major courses were equivalent to, if not better than, the courses stateside.... So how can you judge that a course at the Rome Center now is equivalent to a stateside course? You have to take the administration's word.

 Once I started writing songs, though, there was this feeling of, 'Oh my God, what a cool thing to be able to say to someone, 'You've never heard this before. And I know you haven't, because I wrote it.' I felt like, 'Wow, if I could present something new to people, that would be the ultimate thing.'

 [Of all the storylines, none is more compelling than the rise of the Indians. They have arrived much like the young, brash A's did five years ago. The Indians will be a force long after 2005.] They've got some great young talent, guys who are ready to win now, ... No one around the league is surprised they're in [the playoff hunt]. What's scary is that they're just going to get better over the next few years.

 I don't believe in an afterlife, so I don't have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse.
  Isaac Asimov

 There are fates worse than death,

 What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your loneliest loneliness, and say, 'This life which you live must be lived by you once again and innumerable times more; and every pain and joy and thought and sigh must come again to you, all in the same sequence. The eternal hourglass will again and again be turned and you with it, dust of the dust!' Would you throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse that demon? Or would you answer, 'Never have I heard anything more divine'?
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 The Indians were so pleased to be here. Many would just look at the environment and smile. This is the way nature should be treated. Of course, in India we have a much larger population, so much of our environment looks worse. The Indians who came over were taken with the sheer beauty here.

 He heard everything. He heard the square, he heard the prayer, the presence of the young people, the Holy Father heard, because he was conscious right to the end, almost to the end, even the last day.

 All writers are vain, selfish and lazy, and at the very bottom of their motives lies a mystery. Writing a book is a long, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.
  George Orwell

 The words of the Bible, and the Bible alone, should be heard from the pulpit.
