My religious point of view is something I can't talk about. It goes against my belief system to talk publicly about my own spiritual beliefs.
The interstate highway system was built to get people from point A to point B as fast as possible. And they knocked down mountains and filled valleys and made everything nice and big and flat, and they bypassed every town.
There is a major turning point in life when you have to decide: shall I grow old gracefully or shall I try everything to stem the tide? For me, that point came in 2001, when I stopped dyeing my hair.
I don't look forward to a time when every politician, every legislator goes to Washington absolutely committed to an extreme point of view. Elected representatives are sent to Washington to compromise, not to never compromise.
The first time I heard 'Jolene,' I was 12 years old, and it was performed by Jack White. I remember watching that video and forgetting it was from a woman's point of view, and forgetting it was a country song, and forgetting it was originally by Doll...
Jake Gittes: There's no point in getting tough with me. I'm just... Evelyn Mulwray: I don't get tough with anyone, Mr. Gittes. My lawyer does.
Koba: [pointing to his scars] Human... work Human... work [screams as he points to his damaged eye] Koba: HUMAN WORK!
Dickie Eklund: Who used to be the pride of Lowell? Huh? Dickie Eklund: [points at himself] Right here. Who's the pride of Lowell now? Dickie Eklund: [points at Micky] Right there.
Mikey: [the kids are arguing] Stop! We've got to get to the lowest point of the floor. Brandon Walsh: Lowest point nothing, Mikey. Now let's go!

From another point of view, a new situation now seems to be arising in which Japan's prosperity is going to be incorporated into the expanding potential power of both production and consumption in Asia at large.
I don't like political poetry, and I don't write it. If this question was pointing towards that, I think it is missing the point of the American tradition, which is always apolitical, even when the poetry comes out of politically active writers.
Of all the nasty outcomes predicted for women's liberation... none was more alarming, from a feminist point of view, than the suggestion that women would eventually become just like men.
Female authors were still using male names when I was young, or they were neatly shoehorned into 'women's books' except for those few that men could always point at when the disparity was pointed out.
