Charles J. Shields Zitate

There is more to be pondered in the grain and texture of life than traditional fiction allows. The work of essayists is vital precisely because it permits and encourages self-knowledge in a way that is less indirect than fiction, more open and speculative.

In der Maserung und Textur des Lebens gibt es mehr zu bedenken, als es die traditionelle Fiktion zulässt. Die Arbeit von Essayisten ist gerade deshalb von entscheidender Bedeutung, weil sie Selbsterkenntnis auf eine Art und Weise ermöglicht und fördert, die weniger indirekt als Fiktion, offener und spekulativer ist.

Irvine is such a safe, stable, planned community, and I'm a person who has a lot of inner longing for drama and romance. So I think in some way the structure of Irvine made me more creative because I had these boundaries, and I thought outside them.

Standards wars involve lots of variables, and understanding them often seems more an art than a science. They generally involve just two big players, and end in a winner-take-all situation.

James Surowiecki

I wrote speculative fiction because I loved to read it, and thought I could do better than some of the people who were getting published.

I'm honest and tell it like it is. I've been around the horn a few times and learned valuable lessons from screwing up a bit. So, if I can pass off advice or make someone smile on the way to work, I'm for it.

Benjamin Clementine

This is pure speculation, but for a period of time, a lot of getting into a party was through fundraising and volunteer work, and Republican women had more time to do that than democratic women, who were out there getting jobs.
