I don't have a single complete show or movie or anything else that I could look at and say 'Nailed that one.' But endless dissatisfaction is I suppose what gets us out of bed in the morning.

He who every morning plans the transactions of the day and follows that plan carries a thread that will guide him through a labyrinth of the most busy life.

Banks are an almost irresistible attraction for that element of our society which seeks unearned money.

No money is better spent than what is laid out for domestic satisfaction.

I know that campaigns can seem small and even silly. Trivial things become big distractions. Serious issues become sound bites. And the truth gets buried under an avalanche of money and advertising. If you're sick of hearing me approve this message believe me - so am I.

You know my main reaction to this money thing is that it's humorous all the attention to it because it's hardly the most insightful or valuable thing that's happened to me.

An important lever for sustained action in tackling poverty and reducing hunger is money.

So much of our lives are defined by habit or what the guy next to us is doing never wondering and knowing who and what we support with our actions from the detergent Mom always used to my favorite dish I make... A lot of my life is unexamined habit.

We've all seen the mom who devotes all her time and attention to her child and is so hungry for adult interaction that as soon as she's around another adult she's not paying attention anymore.

I'm a better mother if I'm also doing my work. Some women find a lot more satisfaction from doing the hardest job which is being a mom. But I like my day job so I juggle a lot.

I like to work. The self-esteem and satisfaction that I get from working makes me a better person which makes me a better mom. I feel lucky because I have the luxury of working only one or two days a week.

Men know they are sexual exiles. They wander the earth seeking satisfaction craving and despising never content. There is nothing in that anguished motion for women to envy.

What I would say to the young men and women who are beset by hopelessness and doubt is that they should go and see what is being done on the ground to fight poverty not like going to the zoo but to take action to open their hearts and their consciences.

Until the men of action clear out the talkers we who have social consciences are at the mercy of those who have none.

Men's actions are too strong for them. Show me a man who has acted and who has not been the victim and slave of his action.

During a trip to Iraq last fall I visited our theater hospital at Balad Air Force Base and witnessed these skilled medical professionals in action and met the brave soldiers whose lives they saved.

No candidate can win a presidential race advocating gay marriage and opposing the military action in Iraq.

When I first started talking about gay marriage most people in the gay community looked at me as if I was insane or possibly a fascist reactionary.

Marriage of attraction is a gamble anyway so you might as well marry into a family that is similar to your own and make that much less of an adjustment. But the 'love marriage' as it is called is equally common in India now. But it would be interesting to do a comparison of what would work better. Marriage is hard work and it is a gamble.

Well marriage doesn't function in the way it used to in terms of deciding our fate but it's in our heads and it determines a lot of our actions. Like right now if you think about gay marriage - and they just started having the first gay marriages in New York - it shows what a potent idea marriage remains for people.

Of all actions of a man's life his marriage does least concern other people yet of all actions of our life tis most meddled with by other people.

Inspirations never go in for long engagements they demand immediate marriage to action.

If love does not know how to give and take without restrictions it is not love but a transaction that never fails to lay stress on a plus and a minus.

Animals are reliable many full of love true in their affections predictable in their actions grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up to.
