strong latin thinking
Knowing Latin and having two years of Attic Greek gave me the strong foundation upon which I've built a career. I think the classical training, more than anything, has provided me with longevity.
responsibility thinking accountability
I do think women avoid power. Power assumes responsibility and accountability, and I think many, many women want to have it both ways.
thinking judging people
I think you can judge the level of success for any group of people by the reaction against it.
thinking years people
I think in the years to come what Reagan will be remembered for is that he had the chance to stop the plague and he chose not to because the 'right people' were dying.
love thinking two
I used to think romantic love was a neurosis shared by two, a supreme foolishness. I no longer think that. There's nothing foolish in loving anyone. Thinking you'll be loved in return is what's foolish.
life thinking animal
We animals live life in all its glorious uncertainty. Why do politicians think they can control events?
opportunity thinking often-is
I think the reason I choose the comic approach so often is because it's harder, therefore affording me the opportunity to show off.
thinking want overrated
I don't want to die. I think death is a greatly overrated experience.
thinking birth apartment
I think of birth as the search for a larger apartment.
hate thinking circles
I hate the telephone. I think the lowest circle of hell is reserved for Alexander Graham Bell.
believe gay thinking
I don't believe in straight or gay. I really don't. I think we're all degrees of bisexual.
thinking deeds-done tragedy
I have changed my definition of tragedy. I now think tragedy is not foul deeds done to a person (usually noble in some manner) but rather that tragedy is irresolvable conflict.
couple gay thinking
I don't think there is a 'gay lifestyle.' I think that's superficial crap, all that talk about gay culture. A couple of restaurants on Castro Street and a couple of magazines do not constitute culture. Michelangelo is culture. Virginia Woolf is culture. So let's don't confuse our terms. Wearing earrings is not culture ...
thinking doors infidelity
Why marry a woman if you're going to betray her, and if you're going to betray her, why beat her? The fault is not hers ... I sometimes think the worst we do, we do behind closed doors.
