Essays Quotes
I had an insanely long commute - New York to D.C. - when I worked at 'National Geographic.' I hate to waste time, so I spent my time by writing about my life on the premise that I might be able to pitch those as short essays to magazines. It wasn't until later that I realized that I was writing a book.

Against Quotes
If you try to force things against them, you're going to self-destruct. I think their defense is based in part on the premise that an offense has a hard time marching down the field for 80 yards. You're going to get impatient and force something, and that's going to create a turnover or failed third down that causes you to punt. They count on you self-destructing as much as they count on themselves succeeding.

Balance Quotes
You know, that's racist within itself. I mean, what you're saying is that if you're minority, you can't have a good school if you've got minorities, so you view minorities as a liability that you balance around. That is the underlying racist point when you start with that premise and say we have to balance minority numbers and diversity numbers, your premise that you start out with is that minority students are an inferior student and that's where the racist comment and thought pattern comes from.
