'WASP' is the only ethnic term that is in fact a term of class apart from redneck which is another word for the same group but who are in the lower social strata so it's inexplicably tied up with social standing and culture and history in a way that the other hyphenations just are not.

When you believe in God you've got to believe in the all-powerful God. He's not just God He's the all-powerful God and He has total control over everyone's life. The Devil on the other hand is a real character that's trying his hardest to tear your life apart.

The secret of improved plant breeding apart from scientific knowledge is love.
There's no artist in this world that doesn't enjoy the dream that if they have bad reviews now the story of Keats can redeem them in their fantasy or imagination in the future.

You can see my guns at my apartment. The safe room is a special place... It's good to have a safe room in your house. It's storm-proof we've got food store supplies all kinds of stuff.
I was born in the '60s and grew up in the '70s - not exactly the best decade for food in British history. It was horrendous. It was a time when as a nation we excelled in art and music and acting and photography and fashion - all creative skills... all apart from cooking.
If it weren't for the fact that the TV set and the refrigerator are so far apart some of us wouldn't get any exercise at all.
