A lesser complaint: hair extensions. There are moments on 'All My Children' when half the women actors young and old seem to be afflicted by android Barbie creep. All those thick swatches of lifeless strands clustering lankly round ladies' necks! Like orange tanning spray this is a fashion fad that should be put out of its misery.
When I grew up in Taiwan the Korean War was seen as a good war where America protected Asia. It was sort of an extension of World War II. And it was of course the peak of the Cold War. People in Taiwan were generally proAmerican. The Korean War made Japan. And then the Vietnam War made Taiwan. There is some truth to that.
Gentlemen I fervently trust that before long the principle of arbitration may win such confidence as to justify its extension to a wider field of international differences.
I see technology as being an extension of the human body.
The medium is the message. This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium - that is of any extension of ourselves - result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves or by any new technology.
So what does a good teacher do? Create tension - but just the right amount.
Baseball happens to be a game of cumulative tension but football basketball and hockey are played with hand grenades and machine guns.
Science makes no pretension to eternal truth or absolute truth.
We have failed to protect science against speculative extensions of nature continuing to assign physical and mathematical properties to hypothetical entities beyond what is observable in nature.
If you're doing an interview you need conversational tension. After you talk to them you're not going to have a relationship with them they're not going to like you they're not going to be your friend.
But I think the real tension lies in the relationship between what you might call the pursuer and his quarry whether it's the writer or the spy.
Yes politics IS war without bloodshed and war is an extension of those politics.
You know the media and politicians are always gonna be in a bit of tension with one another and probably most of the time that's healthy and indeed even creative. But it's where - it's really when news organisations are used as kind of instruments of politics that it gets tricky.
When you translate poetry in particular you're obliged to look at how the writer with whom you're working puts together words sentences phrases the triple tension between the line of verse the syntax and the sentence.
My films are an extension of my poetry using the white screen like the white page to be filled with images.
I challenge anybody to say that I wouldn't know how to approach foreign policy because unlike some of the other people I at least have a foreign policy philosophy which is an extension of the Reagan philosophy. Peace through strength and my philosophy is peace through strength and clarity.
Color is a plastic means of creating intervals... color harmonics produced by special relationships or tensions. We differentiate now between formal tensions and color tensions just as we differentiate in music between counterpoint and harmony.
Music is like a huge release of tension.
Musicians are there in front of you and the spectators sense their tension which is not the case when you're listening to a record. Your attention is more relaxed. The emotional aspect is more important in live music.
Music in movies is all about dissonance and consonance tension and release.
I have realized that I hate going to the premieres of the movies that I'm in. Because I feel this tension after the movie is over that everyone feels obligated to say something nice to you. It's so unnatural and uncomfortable.
I've been drawing my whole life. My mom says my sister and I were drawing by age 1. Animation seems a real natural extension of drawing as a way of telling a story visually.
You have to enable and empower people to make decisions independent of you. As I've learned each person on a team is an extension of your leadership if they feel empowered by you they will magnify your power to lead.
The knowledge and understanding of the world which science gives us and the magnificent opportunity which it extends to us to control and use the world for the extension of our pleasure in it has never been greater than it now is.
The Framers of the Bill of Rights did not purport to 'create' rights. Rather they designed the Bill of Rights to prohibit our Government from infringing rights and liberties presumed to be preexisting.
