Lincoln prevailed: wearing his green shawl in the White House and gripped with melancholy, his feet constantly cold, he preserved a nation that had begun to unravel, often holding it together with nothing more than the flat of his hand and his unfaltering sense of human worth.

Lincoln setzte sich durch: Er trug sein grünes Tuch im Weißen Haus und war von Melancholie ergriffen, wobei seine Füße ständig kalt waren. Er bewahrte eine Nation, die begonnen hatte, sich zu entwirren, und hielt sie oft zusammen mit nichts weiter als der flachen Hand und seinem unermüdlichen menschlichen Gefühl wert.

Since the day he came into office, President Bush has worked to gut more than 34 years of hard work by weakening many of our Nation's standing environmental laws, some of which were signed into law by his father.

An idea can be tested, whereas if you have no idea, nothing can be tested and you don't understand anything.

No one has ever had a hypothesis about why the two are together.

In the rare cases where I've had to cut a company loose, I just tell them why and wish them luck and hope they learn something from it. I don't spend more mental energy on it than I have to, and I try very hard not to hold a grudge or try to negatively affect them either. It's just done for me.

David Cohen

I went out to the desert where Cleopatra camped out with her mercenary army. It's a desolate outpost. Nothing has changed since her day. You realize how far she had to travel. Not only is it a good 150 miles against the current, you can't take a ship.
