But in a way you can say that after leaving the sea, after all those millions of years of living inside of the sea, we took the ocean with us. when a woman makes a baby, she gives it water, inside her body, to grow in. that water inside her body is almost exactly the same as the water of the sea. it is salty, by just the same amount. she makes a little ocean, in her body. and not only this. our blood and our sweating, they are both salty, almost exactly like the water from the sea is salty. we carry oceans inside of us, in our blood and our sweat. and we are crying the oceans, in our tears.

I am sending back the key that let me into bluebeard's study; because he would make love to me i am sending back the key; in his eye's darkroom i can see my x-rayed heart, dissected body: i am sending back the key that let me into bluebeard s study.

The sea of galilee and the dead sea are made of the same water. it flows down, clean and cool, from the heights of herman and the roots of the cedars of lebanon. the sea of galilee makes beauty of it, the sea of galilee has an outlet. it gets to give. it gathers in its riches that it may pour them out again to fertilize the jordan plain. but the dead sea with the same water makes horror. for the dead sea has no outlet. it gets to keep.

The offer of certainty, the offer of complete security, the offer of an impermeable faith that can’t give way, is an offer of something not worth having. i want to live my life taking the risk all the time that i don’t know anything like enough yet; that i haven’t understood enough; that i can’t know enough; that i’m always hungrily operating on the margins of a potentially great harvest of future knowledge and wisdom. i wouldn’t have it any other way.

Aside from higher considerations, charity often operates as a vastly wise and prudent principle-a great safeguard to its possessor. men have committed murder for jealousy's sake, and anger's sake, and hatred's sake, and selfishness' sake, and spiritual pride's sake; but no man that ever i heard of, ever committed a diabolical murder for sweet charity's sake. mere self-interest, then, if no better motive can be enlisted, should, especially with high-tempered men, prompt all beings to charity and philanthropy.

The most efficient way to produce anything is to bring together under one management as many as possible of the activities needed to turn out the product.

You can choose, you can go one of two ways. you can be the person i probably admire more and say 'well i don't care and i'll continue not to bother to brush my hair.' or you can be a weak-willed person like me and think 'oh i'd better get my act together. and maybe my mother was right and i do need to put my hair back and tidy myself up a bit.' so i did tidy myself up a bit. but i do often resent the amount of time that it takes to pull yourself together to go on tv, i really do. if i sound bitter, then that accurately reflects how i feel about the subject.

Those who are held wise among men and who search the reasons of things, are those who bring the most sorrow on themselves.
