Liberals become indignant when you question their patriotism but simultaneously work overtime to give terrorists a cushion for the next attack and laugh at dumb Americans who love their country and hate the enemy.

I have a huge respect for writers and realise that this is not an area that I find easy. I doubt that I would have the patience in front of a blank sheet of paper to become a writer.

I'm not really easy to live with! There needs to be unlimited patience and unconditional love. Men I've known before loved my independent spirit and were proud of my success to the point that they'd become jealous of the time I devote to my career.

Have patience. All things are difficult before they become easy.

The number of stressors has multiplied exponentially: traffic money success work/life balance the economy the environment parenting family conflict relationships disease. As the nature of human life has become far more complicated our ancient stress response hasn't been able to keep up.

I've become sort of an accidental advocate for attachment parenting which is a style of parenting that... basically the way mammals parent and the way people have parented for pretty much all of human history except the last 200 years or so.

Kids are a great analogy. You want your kids to grow up and you don't want your kids to grow up. You want your kids to become independent of you but it's also a parent's worst nightmare: That they won't need you. It's like the real tragedy of parenting.

What lingers from the parent's individual past unresolved or incomplete often becomes part of her or his irrational parenting.

Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president but they don't want them to become politicians in the process.

Since the nature of people is bad to become corrected they must be taught by teachers and to be orderly they must acquire ritual and moral principles.

He who does not become familiar with nature through love will never know her.

I am following Nature without being able to grasp her I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.

Painting will have to deal more fully and less obliquely with life and nature's phenomena before it can again become great.

Man's heart away from nature becomes hard.

Man's true nature being lost everything becomes his nature as his true good being lost everything becomes his good.

To become an able and successful man in any profession three things are necessary nature study and practice.

According to the law of nature it is only fair that no one should become richer through damages and injuries suffered by another.

The lake and the mountains have become my landscape my real world.

I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.

Nature is so powerful so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.

Put you energy into music. If it fails you you can become an accountant or a dentist. And then if you become a dentist or an accountant it's too late to become a musician afterwards.

Editing is now the easiest thing on earth to do and all the things that evolved out of word processing - 'Oh let's put that sentence there let's get rid of this' - have become commonplace in films and music too.

Once music ceases to be ephemeral - always disappearing - and becomes instead material... it leaves the condition of traditional music and enters the condition of painting. It becomes a painting existing as material in space not immaterial in time.

That was a time when I did love music I couldn't get enough of what was going on. Maybe it was Nirvana that brought me back. I guess it was a comfort because something that sounded so right - and non-commercial - had become so influential so immediately.
