Mine has been a concern for the people, a concern to maintain stability, a concern to get people working together racially, ethnically, rich and poor - all segments of the city.
I heard someone say that it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to get into heaven. I decided to sculpt camels in a needle.
Chinese sausage, which is widely available from Asian grocers and online, is sweet, rich, and enticingly smoky. I add it to steamed rice with strips of omelette and a few baby veg stir-fried with soy.
In a world of global dependencies with no corresponding global polity and few tools of global justice, the rich of the world are free to pursue their own interests while paying no attention to the rest.
What I believe unites the people of this nation, regardless of race or region or party, young or old, rich or poor, is the simple, profound belief in opportunity for all - the notion that if you work hard and take responsibility, you can get ahead.
The trouble is not that schools don't work; they do. They're excellent machines for achieving historically accepted purposes. In suburban schools are children of the rich, who grow up to privilege and anesthetic oblivion to pain - and who then use th...
Rich cultures, patriarchal cultures, value thin women, like ours; poor ones value fat women. But all patriarchal cultures value weak women. So for women to become physically strong is very profound.

I think you're a good person or a todd by the age of eight.
Hard conditions of life are indispensable to bringing out the best in human personality.
I admire anyone with their own sense of personal style.
I probably seem like not a particularly nice person, not a girl's girl.
Every failure is an opportunity for your personal growth.
My personal style can be everything from girly and flirty to edgy and chic.
I am a religious person and rely heavily on prayers.
Sometimes the person who is the most logical is the person whom we call insane.
Every difficulty is an opportunity for personal growth.
It's a really personal thing for me to write a song.
I was an optimistic person, really bossy, gregarious and outspoken.
But once the person is selected, at that point that person is independent.
