I live in a fantasy world where I think I'm immune to all disease. I don't get sick and haven't had anything major go wrong.
The job of the travel writer is to go far and wide, to make voluminous notes, to tell the truth.
It's not necessary to go far and wide. I mean, you can really find exciting and inspiring things within your hometown.
At the end of the day, Democrats go out and appeal to 30 percent of the far left; Republicans go out and appeal to 30 percent of the far right. Hey, there's a big middle ground here that's not represented. I think that, Bill Weld and myself, I think the Libertarian Party really occupies that ground.
I need to go someplace faraway that doesn't have telephones and doesn't have a record player and doesn't have movie theaters and people walking down the street in order to not do anything.
It is one thing to tell the citizens of some faraway country to go to hell, but it is another to do the same to your own citizens, who are supposedly your ultimate sovereigns.
The farce is finished. I go to seek a vast perhaps.
I have to go and say farewell to all the countries that I have been to, if I can. I am 73 now, it is taxing on me.
There are vivid memories from my childhood - what we had to go through because of low wages and the conditions, basically because there was no union. I suppose, if I wanted to be fair, I could say that I'm trying to settle a personal score. I could dramatize it by saying that I want to bring social justice to farm workers.
Everybody had to go to some college or other. A business college, a junior college, a state college, a secretarial college, an Ivy League college, a pig farmer's college. The book first, then the work.
My dad was a very unconventional Asian American man. He was very much not quiet, not shy, not passive. If he had to fart, he'd do it in the library. He did not care. He was like, 'I don't know these people. I'm uncomfortable, and I need to let it go.'
If you let go of fart jokes, you've let go of a piece of humanity.
Go as far as you can see; when you get there you'll be able to see farther.
I had ambition not only to go farther than any man had ever been before, but as far as it was possible for a man to go.
Go as far as you can see; when you get there, you'll be able to see farther.
Men, like bullets, go farthest when they are smoothest.
At which point should we let go and do what we want to do, and when should we submit to rules? Coming to terms with our true natures and who we really are has always been a fascination to humans. I know it fascinates me.
The fascination to go into space has existed for hundreds of years. But as we do things and they're successful, people get bored.
I want to go deep into fashion; I want to go maybe into acting. There's a lot of stuff I would like to go into.
The fashion industry has done itself in by neglecting the 60- to 80-year-old market. They have the time and the economic resources. They want to go shopping.
