Once the cry and the cause of a generation of progressives to make America safer fairer and cleaner 'regulation' is now a dirty word in our politics. Even Democrats are quick to talk about cutting regulations Republicans hate them with - how to put it? - evangelical fervor.
I've done a number of readings at poetry lounges in Vancouver and Los Angeles. I've compiled a book of poetry that's completed and two others I'm working on.
A babe in the house is a well-spring of pleasure a messenger of peace and love a resting place for innocence on earth a link between angels and men.
We shall find peace. We shall hear angels we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds.
Peace is the first thing the angels sang.
The earth has grown old with its burden of care but at Christmas it always is young the heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair and its soul full of music breaks the air when the song of angels is sung.
Music is well said to be the speech of angels.
'Dr. Strangelove' was and is one of my favorite movies ever and I just can't believe they actually blew up the world after that.
I live in Los Angeles which is the second most polluted city in the world and I wake up in the morning to dirt all over my window.
Your enjoyment of the world is never right till every morning you awake in Heaven: see yourself in your Father's palace and look upon the skies the earth and the air as celestial joys: having such a reverend esteem of all as if you were among the angels.
I wake up every morning and I feel like I'm juggling glass balls. I live in Los Angeles my business is run out of London and most evenings I'm cuddled up in front of Skype in my dressing gown speaking with my studio in London. I travel a lot my team travel a lot but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Part of the reason that I moved to Los Angeles is that even though my mom introduced me to all kinds of music I really wanted to work on having my own identify on being who I am and doing what I do and seeing how people responded.
Growing up I always shopped at Victoria's Secret with my mom and saw Angels like Gisele and Karolina Kurkova in the windows.
My parents were both in show business. My father was an actor my mom an actress and both singers dancers and actors. They met in Los Angeles doing a play together and so I grew up in a show biz family.
I didn't really know what I wanted to do and then I got this call from a casting director in Los Angeles. She remembered me from something years before and she called my mom wanting me to audition for this thing.
The savior who wants to turn men into angels is as much a hater of human nature as the totalitarian despot who wants to turn them into puppets.
It was pride that changed angels into devils it is humility that makes men as angels.
Law describes the way things would work if men were angels.
That's why I wanted to be part of this AIDS Project Los Angeles party. We help raise funds for those who are having a tough time with some very basic necessities like shelter food and medical care.
A woman has two smiles that an angel might envy the smile that accepts a lover before words are uttered and the smile that lights on the first born babe and assures it of a mother's love.
Black as the devil hot as hell pure as an angel sweet as love.
To love for the sake of being loved is human but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.
I don't know of many evangelicals who want to deny gay couples their legal rights. However most of us don't want to call it marriage because we think that word has religious connotations and we're not ready to see it used in ways that offend us.
It's impossible to walk a block in Miami in Los Angeles San Antonio without running into someone who is being deeply impacted by a broken legal immigration system.
