While gossip among women is universally ridiculed as low and trivial gossip among men especially if it is about women is called theory or idea or fact.

I've been trying to find women writers for my staff for a while now and I have three women on my staff and three guys so it's pretty equal. I don't know why that is. It's been the same thing for a while. It's hard for female comedians to stand out. That's weird. That's a shame.

What's different now is that while political leaders used to give talking points to talk radio now talk-radio hosts are giving talking points to political leaders. It's all part of the suffocating spin cycle we're in. In media politics and publishing the conventional wisdom is to play to this base.

Now it is time to turn to an older wisdom that while respecting material comfort and security as a basic right of all also recognises that many of the most valuable things in life cannot be measured.

No one ever found wisdom without also being a fool. Writers alas have to be fools in public while the rest of the human race can cover its tracks.

If we have built on the fragile cornerstones of human wisdom pride and conditional love things may look good for a while but a weak foundation causes collapse when storms hit.

You may invite the entire 35th Division to your wedding if you want to. I guess it's going to be yours as well as mine. We might as well have the church full while we are at it.

After the atomic bombs were dropped the war ended and we went into Tokyo Bay with the rest of the fleet the Missouri and the rest of them while they signed the terms of surrender that ended the war.

Watergate enabled the Democrats to cut off all aid to South Vietnam and ensure American defeat in a war their party entered and had effectively lost before Nixon salvaged a non-Communist South Vietnam while effecting a complete American withdrawal.

As to war I am and always was a great enemy at the same time a warrior the greater part of my life and were I young again should still be a warrior while ever this country should be invaded and I lived.

War famine poverty and oppression of the workers will continue while woman makes life cheap. They will cease only when she limits her reproductivity and human life is no longer a thing to be wasted.

And we love to dance especially that new one called the Civil War Twist. The Northern part of you stands still while the Southern part tries to secede.

Victorious warriors win first and then go to war while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.

Truth of a modest sort I can promise you and also sincerity. That complete praiseworthy sincerity which while it delivers one into the hands of one's enemies is as likely as not to embroil one with one's friends.

All the religions of the world while they may differ in other respects unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.

To myself I am only a child playing on the beach while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me.

Seeing that our thirst was increasing and the water was killing us while the storm did not abate we agreed to trust to God Our Lord and rather risk the perils of the sea than wait there for certain death from thirst.

You can't trust a promise someone makes while they're drunk in love hungry or running for office.

In any solid good relationship it takes a while to trust someone.

Trust me my runners aren't going to run one event while looking past it to the second event. When they get on the line for the 10K that's a do-or-die situation for them.

I almost always do things that I like in some form or fashion. Every once in awhile that means that I don't think the script is any good and I don't have any trust in the people but the film is shooting in Sri Lanka or somewhere like that so I'm going.

While it is clear that we need to make some adjustments to protect Social Security for the long term it is disingenuous to say that the trust fund is facing a crisis.

Whoever places his trust into a system will soon be without a home. While you are building your third story the two lower ones have already been dismantled.

It takes people a while to trust you.
