When I began to listen to poetry, it's when I began to listen to the stones, and I began to listen to what the clouds had to say, and I began to listen to others.

When the new home construction and everything does begin in New Orleans, it is going to be tight and it will have a long term effect.

The primary thing writing and basketball share is the sense that each time you go out, each time you play or begin a piece, it's a new day.

The priests say the new dawn will be like the rain that fertilizes the soil before we begin to plant our corn. It will renew the natural cycle of life. The Mayan people will once again flourish.

The place is packed every Monday night. The audience is there for the music and we set it up for the shows to begin and end early, so there is no worry about getting home late or going to work tired the next day.

The place I begin is with story. If the audience doesn't care about that, then it doesn't matter how amazing the spectacle is. My central philosophy is that people go to the movies to be told a story, not to see stuff blow up.

There are times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world and give birth to new ideas and ventures. There are times of flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom, energized and expanding. And there are times of fruition, when things come to an end. They have reached their climax and must be harvested before they begin to fade. And finally of course, there are times that are cold, and cutting and empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a distant dream. Those rhythms in life are natural events. They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing, not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things are.

Like all other arts, the science of deduction and analysis is one which can only be acquired by long and patient study, nor is life long enough to allow any mortal to attain the highest possible perfection in it. Before turning to those moral and mental aspects of the matter which present the greatest difficulties, let the inquirer begin by mastering more elementary problems. Let him, on meeting a fellow-mortal, learn at a glance to distinguish the history of man, and the trade or profession to which he belongs. Puerile as such an exercise may seem, it sharpens the faculties of observation, and teaches one where to look and what to look for.

Like Disney's other theme parks and resorts around the world, Hong Kong Disneyland will offer the excitement of a day and night full of magic and begin what we hope will be a lifetime full of memories that will touch the hearts of millions, ...

Before long they will have to make an important choice.

On any other expenditure done by the state, prevailing wage is the law. If you begin to chip away here, it would start undermining the wages that are paid to California workers.

One of my concerns is that writers will begin to feel the censor on their backs, and we won't get their very best. Instead their fear, or the fear imposed by the publisher, will limit them.

Shrugged tells the story of our main character Theo, but you also get to see the back-and- forth between his right and wrong side, so to speak, and those moments will provide some comedic opportunities as we explore both sides of the coin.

We are excited to offer dealers this new service which will give them the power of our bid management software and search expertise, in order to drive the best results at the lowest cost.

No one can go in, ... No one can come out. There's no cell phones working. There's no land phones working. Half the county is under water, from what I understand. . . . In my gut, I feel like they're okay. But with each minute that passes, I begin to wonder. . . . This is one of those situations where I would love to do whatever I could to help . . . but I don't even know where to start. It's tough to focus on anything right now because I'm very concerned.

Nothing is easy any more in the so-called Big Easy, which never really was all that easy to begin with. It is the same and utterly changed, in high spirits and deeply depressed, moving forward and stuck in late August.

Revenue departments have many, many more sweeping powers than any other agency or private collections firm would have under fair debt collection laws. So now what you'll have is revenue agents who are used to using those broad powers going after people who owe court fines or student loans.

People who act the most arrogant often are the most insecure, and they just can't even begin to accept the possibility that they might not be as good as they think they are.

Politics is a part of everyday life in Afghanistan, so I think it's not right to say that they are completely inexperienced in politics.

Leaders will emerge there pretty quick, and they'll know what they are doing. They know about politics.

My task is to respond to the two hours of uninterrupted testimony from the independent counsel, as well as to his four-year, $45 million investigation, which has included at least 28 attorneys, 78 FBI agents and an undisclosed number of private investigators ... And I have 30 minutes to do this. It's a daunting exercise, but let me begin with the simple but powerful truth that nothing in this overkill of an investigation amounts to a justification for the impeachment of the president of the United States.

My talk with him (Sherman) was very brief. I will begin the process of interviewing potential head coaches this week. I do think that in the long run this is what's best for the Green Bay Packers.

My understanding is that this contract has been funded for the current fiscal year, so this is legitimately before us, in my opinion. My concern about adding staff is that you're splitting the chain of command. If it's this board's position to reject this contract for the current fiscal year, then it's incumbent upon us to begin the process of adding to staff.
