mean thinking grace
I have some favorites. I love Chaplin; I mean I really love Chaplin. I just think there's a grace and an elegance that's almost never been matched.
meaningful memories reading
As time goes by the memories of sitting on the edge of a bed and reading aloud with your kid are going to be very meaningful in your own mental scrapbook.
confusion people too-much
History is full of examples of people who clamp down after they began to enjoy too much freedom. Freedom can lead to instability, anarchy, and confusion. So there can be a moral counter-revolution.
gratitude book kids
'Harry Potter' created a generation of readers in an era when kids could have disappeared into the depths of the Internet. That's no small feat. Every book series owes J.K. Rowling a debt of gratitude.
act risk shown supply willing
Governments have shown that if there is a substantial supply risk they are willing to act, and act quickly.
traders worry
For the first time, traders have to worry about demand.
conversation good left prepare spin wherever
I left the conversation pretty much up to him. That way I would be fresher, and he's so good at this. I didn't want to prepare or spin anything. I just jumped in and let him take it wherever it went.
directly finished wonderful
I mean, the wonderful thing about writing a book is that you're getting a finished product at the end of the day. You're communicating directly with the reader.
adequately characters fascinates full grow maybe meet obviously themselves
I mean, in 'Big' and 'Pleasantville,' it's a journey that the characters go on where I think they come to kind of meet themselves at the end and who they actually are and give full voice to who they actually are. And that, you know, obviously fascinates me for some reason. Maybe I didn't adequately grow up.
release risk whereas
All of a sudden, there's a new risk to being long whereas before it was a one-way bet. The IEA release has capped the market.
kids respect shared time walk watching wonderful
You can't tell your kids to read if you're just watching television. They have to see you read. And in that respect, I think it's important to walk the walk. It's a wonderful shared time.
