Seth Shostak Zitate

When it comes to brains, size matters. It's not all that matters, of course. Whales and dolphins have brains that are larger than humans', but few of the flippered and fluked set win tenure at Stanford. Our brains are the largest in proportion to body size, and they're also highly sophisticated.

Wenn es um Gehirne geht, kommt es auf die Größe an. Es ist natürlich nicht alles, was zählt. Wale und Delfine haben ein Gehirn, das größer ist als das von Menschen, aber nur wenige der geschossenen Flossen und Flossen erhalten in Stanford eine feste Amtszeit. Unser Gehirn ist im Verhältnis zur Körpergröße am größten, und es ist auch sehr raffiniert.

I wish all critics, no matter their color, were more sophisticated when it comes to the moral questions a film like 'St. Anna' is trying to raise.

I found a nanny/child care position in Beverly Hills taking care of a 3-year-old and a 17-year-old. They had a large, wealthy house. I learned that I liked the way rich people lived. I learned that they were not smarter than me.

I have to say when a man lives for himself, it's hard to live with him. That's pretty much the story of all my divorces. I've been making records since I was 22 and done things my way, and it's hard for me to compromise. And of course, to have a successful relationship, one has to compromise. Sometimes I'm not good at it.

John Mellencamp

Magic speaks to the child in all of us. No matter how sophisticated we become, there's still a part of us who wants to believe in an alternative reality, where we can defy the laws of nature.
