If we had pursued what President Nixon declared in 1970 as the war on cancer we would have cured many strains. I think Jack Kemp would be alive today. And that research has saved or prolonged many lives including mine.

Mine is the first generation able to contemplate the possibility that we may live our entire lives without going to war or sending our children to war.

War is a racket. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.

The essential act of war is destruction not necessarily of human lives but of the products of human labor.

We used to wonder where war lived what it was that made it so vile. And now we realize that we know where it lives... inside ourselves.

The truth is that we live out our lives putting off all that can be put off perhaps we all know deep down that we are immortal and that sooner or later all men will do and know all things.

A priest is he who lives solely in the realm of the invisible for whom all that is visible has only the truth of an allegory.

What does it matter how one comes by the truth so long as one pounces upon it and lives by it?

The lowest form of popular culture - lack of information misinformation disinformation and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people's lives - has overrun real journalism. Today ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.

Truth lives in fact for the most part on a credit system. Our thoughts and beliefs pass so long as nothing challenges them just as bank-notes pass so long as nobody refuses them.

All the religions of the world while they may differ in other respects unitedly proclaim that nothing lives in this world but Truth.

The time I trust will come perhaps within the lives of some of us when the outline of this science will be clearly made out and generally recognised when its nomenclature will be fixed and its principles form a part of elementary instruction.

Travel is the frivolous part of serious lives and the serious part of frivolous ones.

I can't wait to start something up myself that is actually about giving unsigned bands the exposure they deserve especially when they travel so far to play the smallest gig they've ever played in their lives.

Young people know how important it is for dads to be involved in their lives. As I travel the country and talk with students some of them tell me that their lives would be totally different if their father was around.

I'm a big fan of doing 'Triple D.' But I don't want to do it forever don't get me wrong! Travel away from my family are you crazy? But do you know what it does for these mom-and-pop restaurant joints? It changes their lives forever. I mean their businesses will never be the same.

Before we had the kids my husband and I were traveling a lot and working and really enjoying our lives and each other. We both love the theater and books and travel and so we were really having a lot of fun.

Each day as I travel through downtown Tucson I am amazed at how quickly the most ancient of human behaviors have changed. For as long as there have been Homo sapiens - roughly 200 000 years - people have filled their lives principally with two activities: talking directly with other people and doing physical things.

We travel some of us forever to seek other states other lives other souls.

Sometimes overturning brutal regimes takes time and costs lives. I wish it weren't so. I really really do.

I don't have time for their judgement and their stupidity and you know they lay down with their ugly wives in front of their ugly children and look at their loser lives and then they look at me and they say 'I can't process it' well no you never will stop trying just sit back and enjoy the show. You know?

People spend too much time finding other people to blame too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being and not enough energy putting themselves on the line growing out of the past and getting on with their lives.

I'm thankful I grew up the way I did. It made me a hard worker and insightful to other people's lives.

It's been quite a roller coaster ride but I've grown and learned a lot about myself. The greatest thing is being able to interact with fans and touch people's lives... for that I give thanks.
