We all know of course, that we should never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever fiddle around in any way with electrical equipment. never.

You’re not exempt from math if you’re a republican, and you’re not exempt from math if you’re a democrat. you’re not exempt from math if you’re a liberal, and you’re not exempt from math if you’re a conservative. you still have to do math.

Quality doesn't mean deep blacks and whatever tonal range. that's not quality, that's a kind of quality. the pictures of robert frank might strike someone as being sloppy-the tone range isn't right and things like that-but they're far superior to the pictures of ansel adams with regard to quality, because the quality of ansel adams, if i may say so, is essentially the quality of a postcard. but the quality of robert frank is a quality that has something to do with what he's doing, what his mind is. it's not balancing out the sky to the sand and so forth. it's got to do with intention.

I noticed there were so many people, especially women, who would come up to me having recognized me from tv and say, 'i heard you were a math person, why math? oh my gosh, i could never do math!' i could just see their self-esteem crumbling; i thought that was silly, so i wanted to make math more friendly and accessible.

But in the end, science does not provide the answers most of us require. its story of our origins and of our end is, to say the least, unsatisfactory. to the question, "how did it all begin?", science answers, "probably by an accident." to the question, "how will it all end?", science answers, "probably by an accident." and to many people, the accidental life is not worth living. moreover, the science-god has no answer to the question, "why are we here?" and, to the question, "what moral instructions do you give us?", the science-god maintains silence.

I'm a strong believer that you have to have an equal opportunity to fail and to try things that are hard. i always tell my students, "don't just take things that are easy for you. if you're really good at math, don't take just math. take classes that make you write. if you're a really great writer, but bad at math, take math and make yourself work your way through it."

We talk a lot about malcom x and martin luther king jr, but it's time to be like them, as strong as them. they were mortal men like us and everyone of us can be like them. i don't want to be a role model. i just want to be someone who says, this is who i am, this is what i do. i say what's on my mind.

Government today is growing too strong to be safe. there are no longer any citizens in the world there are only subjects. they work day in and day out for their masters they are bound to die for their masters at call. out of this working and dying they tend to get less and less.

So much of what i am doing in my fiction is just trying to get into interesting places in terms of language or form, places that don't bore me. and this happens via hundreds of quick micro-decisions that are done "to taste," so to speak. so the experience is one of groping toward that interesting place - trying to leap away from anything that seems boring, or about which i don't have strong opinions. essentially trying to avoid that moment where, devoid of any strong feeling, i start conceptualizing.
