The life of our city is rich in poetic and marvelous subjects. We are enveloped and steeped as though in an atmosphere of the marvelous; but we do not notice it.
The marvelous thing about a good question is that it shapes our identity as much by the asking as it does by the answering.
All of us have ways in which we mask and cover our pain.
Everywhere else, we are someone else, but at home, we remove our masks.
Russia does not have in its possession any trustworthy data that supports the existence of nuclear weapons or any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and we have not received any such information from our partners as yet.
Certainly, we have to make sure our police forces do not have weapons of mass destruction with which they can terrorize our communities.
One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line.

It's still the tradition for various football powerhouses to pay guarantees to schools with cream-puff teams to come on over to our place and submit to massacre.
Should that worse scenario materialize, then most probably our propensity to increase interest rates will be weaker.
It is time to maximize and prioritize our health care dollars.
While we can't begrudge companies for maximizing cost efficiency, we need to empower and properly train our workforce for the skilled jobs demanded in the 21st century.
In our house, the word of Louis B. Mayer became the law.
The Resurrection is at the core of our beliefs as Christians. Without it, our faith is meaningless.
God has put within our lives meanings and possibilities that quite outrun the limits of mortality.
We have taught our children that meanness gets you nowhere in life.
I'm absolutely convinced that the threat we face now, the idea of a terrorist in the middle of one of our cities with a nuclear weapon, is very real and that we have to use extraordinary measures to deal with it.
People like to imagine that because all our mechanical equipment moves so much faster, that we are thinking faster, too.
It turns out our brain is sensitive, maybe too sensitive, to motion. It's a survival mechanism.
