There were times after my marriage ended where you know I really felt like I was at the bottom of a mountain there was a great big fog up there and I'm never going to cross to the other side.

My parents did not have a perfect marriage. It was pretty good but it was not perfect. My marriage is not perfect. My wife is but I happen to be imperfect. However that does not discount the fact that the definition of marriage must be defended and protected.

I've had two terrific relationships but both ended in marriage.

I was looking very much for a career. My second marriage to Stan Herman had ended and I wanted very much to be independent not take alimony from him be on my own do the right thing.

I'll always be sad that my marriage ended.

I'm so wrapped up in my work that it's often impossible to consider other things in my life. My marriage ended in divorce because of this my relationship with Holly has suffered by this.

All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow being repressed for so many millennia they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.

Property is intended to serve life and no matter how much we surround it with rights and respect it has no personal being. It is part of the earth man walks on. It is not man.

For me the most difficult thing is that I am learning melodies on guitar from some songs whose melodies were not meant to be played on guitar. Ever. They were intended mostly for keyboards or melodic percussion.

Boone Pickens should be commended for his leadership on American energy security and for bringing Ted Turner along on some sensible approaches to enhancing it.

We shouldn't be debating whether to deal with the current code by allowing it to be extended or not. We should have a president who shows leadership and comes to Congress and says: 'You know what? We need to reform this whole tax code.'

France after the month of May will share trust with the current leadership of the United States which on many subjects has tended to take useful positions in our view.

We have a tremendous lack of knowledge of how far we have gotten away from the Constitution of the United States. Democrats and Republicans alike have taken us away from the original intent. You see I believe in this document as our founding fathers intended it.

The plan we developed to deal with al Qaeda depended on developing sources of human and technical intelligence that could give us insights into his plans at the tactical level. This is easy to say but hard to accomplish.

The negative cost of Lewis and Clark entering the Garden of Eden is that later expeditions regardless of what they were intended to do later expeditions did not deal with the native peoples with the intelligence with the almost kindly resolve that Lewis and Clark did.

Schools are not intended to moralize a wicked world but to impart knowledge and develop intelligence with only two social aims in mind: prepare to take on one's share in the world's work and perhaps in addition lend a hand in improving society after schooling is done.

God is another name for human intelligence raised above all error and imperfection and extended to all possible truth.

Intelligence is quickness to apprehend as distinct form ability which is capacity to act wisely on the thing apprehended.

George W. Bush attended the intelligence briefing every day. Obama has not even attended half of them. He sends surrogates. That to me is significant.

I'm not offended by all the dumb blonde jokes because I know I'm not dumb... and I also know that I'm not blonde.

The delicate thing about the university is that it has a mixed character that it is suspended between its position in the eternal world with all its corruption and evils and cruelties and the splendid world of our imagination.

Grant that the true organ with which the beautiful is apprehended is the imagination and it follows that all arts are likely to affect the feelings indirectly.

Growing up I didn't have a lot of toys and personal entertainment depended on individual ingenuity and imagination - think up a story and go live it for an afternoon.

All the people who follow me on Twitter know my sense of humor. I sometimes forget the blogosphere will give it more weight than I intended.
