I'm the kind of person that when I saw a lack of African Americans in the apparel business, that was something I set out to do, and I lead by example.
There is something very human in this apparent mirth and mockery of the squirrels. It seems to be a sort of ironical laughter, and implies self-conscious pride and exultation in the laughter.
I've been trying to learn to ski for years, but there's something about being 6-foot-5 and falling that's not appealing.
I always have apples and fruit in the house. It's easier to eat something healthy if it's within reach. I also have yogurt, cheese and crackers, and raw almonds.
I was appointed Poet Laureate. It came totally out of the blue because most Poet Laureates had been considerably older than I. It was not something that I even had begun to dream about!
The earliest sensation at the onset of illness, often preceding the recognition of identifiable symptoms, is apprehension. Something has gone wrong, and a glimpse of mortality shifts somewhere deep in the mind. It is the most ancient of our fears.
I met Tiger Woods when he was younger. He's amazing - obviously technically, but his mental approach, too. He's really something.

Artists, musicians, scientists - if you have any kind of visionary aptitude, it's often something that you don't have a choice in. You have to do it.
I might do something in Arabic. I might do something in Hebrew.
I might sing a gospel song in Arabic or do something in Hebrew. I want to mix it up and do it differently than one might imagine.
Chastity does not mean abstention from sexual wrong; it means something flaming, like Joan of Arc.
Archery is something that I took up later and didn't know I had a natural aptitude for.
Everything I did in P.E. was just awful. Archery was just something that we did as a father/daughter activity, and it just kind of grew out of that, really.
I took my archery lessons. It was really fun to learn something new.
You know, once something freezes, it's solid. That's the key to the arctic - they didn't fear the cold, they made use of it.
A man lives by believing something: not by debating and arguing about many things.
I'd much rather have 15 people arguing about something than 15 people splitting into two camps, each side convinced it's right and not talking to the other.
