No, what is important is neither linearity or non-linearity, but the change, the degree of change from something that doesn't move to other events with different tempos in particular.
I'm on the board of the Sierra Club Foundation and am myself a big environmentalist. But the way to make the biggest difference is to change mainstream behavior.
We must lead in a different way... We must have an active president, who gives strong direction and works with the government for its implementation.
Also, I walk and hike in several different nearby parks near our home several early mornings a week.
I hope that I can be an inspiration to kids that are young and may feel different or may feel like they don't belong.
I'll let you in on a secret: I can't stand Jay Ward. I hate being compared to Rocky and Bullwinkle. It's just a different style of humor.
Humor helps ease the tension of race and the differences in society. If there wasn't comedy I don't know if Obama could have ever become president.
Who can doubt that between the English and the French, between the Scotch and the Irish, there are differences of character which have profoundly affected and still affect the course of history?

I wouldn't change Buffy for anything and I wouldn't change the course in which she has evolved but it is nice to be able to do something that is a little different.
It's incredible in our sport how small the differences are, and we are all aware of that. We're all on a high level and skiing well, and at the end, it's just hundredths that count. Maybe it's just one finger or a hand can change the color of a medal...
And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension.
The car resembles a dragon fly or any other jumping animal that moves shorter distances in straight lines and then changes its direction at different points.
When you're in a race car, you're going through so many different emotions throughout that race.
As a driver, you always want to be in the car getting as much experience as possible; especially when there's something new like different tyres.
I take my kids to school... I make them breakfast. Unfortunately, dad is a big spoiler, and most days, I make four different breakfasts.
Costume design allows you to do a different type of research and create characters, whereas in fashion, you create an image and clothing for the masses.
You can design a mortgage system that is different without a Fannie and Freddie, but there are principles you have to have, to have a good system.
I tried a dozen different modifications that were rejected. But they all served as a path to the final design.
