Most of American life consists of driving somewhere and then returning home wondering why the hell you went.
If I were beginning my career today I don't think I would take the same direction. Television is at a crossroads at the moment. And although I am not up to date technologically I suspect that somewhere out there people are conveying things about natural history by means other than television and I think if I were beginning today I'd be there.
All History is current all injustice continues on some level somewhere in the world.
If your access to health care involves your leaving work and driving somewhere and parking and waiting for a long time that's not going to promote healthiness.
That's why I wrote this book: to show how these people can imbue us with hope. I read somewhere that when a person takes part in community action his health improves. Something happens to him or to her biologically. It's like a tonic.
As a doctor when I was minister of health and would go somewhere little girls would come up to me and say 'I want to be like you one day I want to be a doctor.' Now they tell me 'I want to be president just like you.' All of us can dream as big as we want.
As long as I have my health I want to be reporting somewhere.
It was physically difficult adjusting to wheelchair life but I remember a great relief and happiness that I was finally getting somewhere finding musicians to work with that were sympathetic.
The American Dream coupled with government subsidies of utilities and cheap consumer goods courtesy of slave labour somewhere else has kept the poor huddled masses from rising up.
As I speak to you today government censors somewhere are working furiously to erase my words from the records of history. But history itself has already condemned these tactics.
You know what the Englishman's idea of compromise is? He says Some people say there is a God. Some people say there is no God. The truth probably lies somewhere between these two statements.
I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it.
I'd like to think a baseball picture is somewhere in my future.
Sometimes when I'm going to sleep I think 'Oh God my future husband is out there somewhere and I might know him or I might not and I wonder what he's doing and I wonder if he knows me.' I just always think that's so fascinating that even when you were two years old your future husband was out there somewhere.
Do you want me to apologize after every joke? If it doesn't offend somebody it's probably not a joke. It's probably an observation that's not funny. It's gotta offend somebody somewhere.
For some reason and I don't know why but I don't think that I'm funny in California. So I always want to do my movies east somewhere.
I'm thankful for the three ounce Ziploc bag so that I have somewhere to put my savings.
The one thing you shouldn't do is try to tell a cab driver how to get somewhere.
No matter what message you are about to deliver somewhere whether it is holding out a hand of friendship or making clear that you disapprove of something is the fact that the person sitting across the table is a human being so the goal is to always establish common ground.
Fortunately somewhere between chance and mystery lies imagination the only thing that protects our freedom despite the fact that people keep trying to reduce it or kill it off altogether.
Somewhere near you somebody right now is trying to help the indigent and poor - providing food shelter clothing or simple kindness.
A fly cannot go in unless it stops somewhere therefore weapons fuel food money will not go to Afghanistan unless the neighbors of Afghanistan are working are cooperating either being themselves the origin or the transit.
Somewhere between 50 to 60 percent of the food you eat has been touched by immigrant hands and it is fair to say some of them are not here as they should be here. But if you didn't have these folks you would be spending a lot more - three four or five times more - for food or we would have to import food and have all the food security risks.
I woke up full of hate and fear the day before the most recent peace march in San Francisco. This was disappointing: I'd hoped to wake up feeling somewhere between Virginia Woolf and Wavy Gravy.
Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs honor your creator not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself right now right down here on Earth.
