Nine of us now seem to feel that the defendant is innocent, but we're just gambling on probabilities. We may be wrong. We may be trying to return a guilty man to the community. No one can really know. But we have a reasonable doubt, and this is a saf...
None of us, irrespective of our sexual preference and/or practice, imagine that we can have an intimate relationship with a partner and always have seamless harmony. Indeed, most of us assume that once the “honeymoon” period is over differences w...

Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.
I used to do community theater with Conor Oberst.
I lived in a kind of dream of communism.

The art of communication is the language of leadership.
Just open, honest communication is the best thing in the world.
