I cannot remember a time when the question of why people behave as they do was not intensely interesting to me. The desire to understand was very important. When I was young, I was aware of the fact that much of the time, the reasons a person gave fo...
Before Katrina, it was a longstanding tradition in our country for political officials to wait until the last minute to warn, to take action, to evacuate. No more. With Irene, you had mass evacuations - mandatory ones - issued days ahead of time. Tha...
Racial profiling punishes innocent individuals for the past actions of those who look and sound like them. It misdirects crucial resources and undercuts the trust needed between law enforcement and the communities they serve. It has no place in our n...
If we have a very strong commitment, so that we can trust ourselves and be beacons of trust for others no matter what the circumstance, then we're protected from suffering the consequences of many actions. We can be protected from that pain.

Kuato: What do you want, Mr. Quaid? Douglas Quaid: The same as you; to remember. Kuato: But why? Douglas Quaid: To be myself again. Kuato: You are what you do. A man is defined by his actions, not his memory.
V: We're oft to blame, and this is too much proved, that with devotion's visage and pious action we do sugar on the devil himself. Baldy Fingerman: What does that mean? V: Spare the Rod.
