Howard Jacobson Zitate

Making America great again, as if to keep the world out. The world and all its fresh ideas and everything that's new and exhilarating and the wind of change that should blow through the world - block it out, wall ourselves up. That for me goes with a small vocabulary. A narrow, confining vocabulary.

Amerika wieder großartig machen, als wollte man die Welt fernhalten. Die Welt und all ihre frischen Ideen und alles, was neu und aufregend ist, und der Wind des Wandels, der die Welt durchbrennen sollte - blockieren Sie ihn, ummauern Sie uns. Das geht für mich mit einem kleinen Wortschatz. Ein enges, einschränkendes Vokabular.

I wash my face with glycolic acid, and then I put on coconut oil. I love coconut oil - coconut oil for everything. That's my pre-makeup routine. And then as far as makeup goes, I can't live without my bold brows and some eyeliner.

When a parent says about a book, 'That's not my child's world,' I remind them of the future. Social fluency will be the new currency of success. Not experiencing diversity challenges our kids' future in the global work force. It handicaps them from making America and the world more livable and just.

When you hear the word 'cancer,' it's as if someone took the game of Life and tossed it in the air. All the pieces go flying. The pieces land on a new board. Everything has shifted. You don't know where to start.

Napoleon the Third was not much. He died in England, and was buried in a country church-yard much the same as Kiltartan. But Napoleon the First was a great man; it was given out of him there never would be so great a man again.

I don't write down my experiences, but I have a very decent memory. I have tons of books in which I write down phrases as they occur to me. That's how I write songs. I'll need a line and I'll go through the books and find it, the right rhyme and everything.

Black liner around the eye makes your eyes look smaller. I think you should reassess, if you're a really big black liner user, maybe even just doing the top line, not lower, or try a brown or a plum or even a navy.
