I don’t know anything about music. In my line you don’t have to.
Don’t talk about what you have done or what you are going to do.
The truth doesn’t change. It was the same when Moses got the Ten Commandments as it is today. That’s the thing about the truth. That’s the thing about real. It doesn’t change and it doesn’t have to change. Now you can put it in a different book, but it’s still real. It’s still the truth.
Video games are bad for you? That’s what they said about rock-n-roll.
Mindfulness is about love and loving life. When you cultivate this love, it gives you clarity and compassion for life, and your actions happen in accordance with that.
I’m a workaholic. I never stop. I’m always thinking about the next play, what’s the next move, what could we do to be better than we are now. And I’m not gonna be satisfied until I’ve achieved my maximum potential.

Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams; years can pass in a second, and you can hop from one place to another. It’s a language made of image. And in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.
To find a clear identity for the team – that is not about buying certain players for a lot of money. It is about getting players who want to play the right way.
The more I learn about things, I realise how wrong I was before.
Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering – because you can’t take it in all at once.
As individuals, people are inherently good. I have a somewhat more pessimistic view of people in groups. And I remain extremely concerned when I see what’s happening in our country, which is in many ways the luckiest place in the world. We don’t seem to be excited about making our country a better place for our kids.
When you think about it, department stores are kind of like museums.
My comeback was not about winning or losing; it was about the feeling of being able to compete at top level again.
Thomas Muster
Only by joy and sorrow does a person know anything about themselves and their destiny. They learn what to do and what to avoid.
Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith but they are afflictions, not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ.
Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things.
You can’t know what you don’t know. You can’t know about things you have yet to discover.
Jonathan Raymond
The secret of my success is that I make other people money. And, never ever, ever, ever be ashamed about trying to earn as much as possible for yourself, if the person you’re working with is also making money. That’s life!
I think the iPhone is the best consumer product ever. That’s what I feel about it. And it’s become so integrated and integral to our lives, you wouldn’t think about leaving home without it.
The proper time to influence the character of a child is about a hundred years before he is born.
Postmodernism was a reaction to modernism. Where modernism was about objectivity, postmodernism was about subjectivity. Where modernism sought a singular truth, postmodernism sought the multiplicity of truths.
We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community… Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own.
Great people talk about ideas, average people talk about things, and small people talk about wine.
They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?
Let us be about setting high standards for life, love, creativity, and wisdom. If our expectations in these areas are low, we are not likely to experience wellness. Setting high standards makes every day and every decade worth looking forward to.
Greg Anderson
My story of success and failure is not just about music and being famous. It’s about living and loving and trying to find purpose in this crazy world.
Wynonna Judd
Give a man health and a course to steer, and he’ll never stop to trouble about whether he’s happy or not.
You can tell alot about a fellow’s character by his way of eating jellybeans.
College isn't in everyone's hearts. I am living proof,

College isn’t in everyone’s hearts. I am living proof, though, that school doesn’t mess up your plans. It gives you more experiences to write about.
I think there’s something charming about incorporating summer clothes into winter, like pairing a summery skirt with a massive sweater. I’m also really into layering during the winter!
Acting is not about being famous, it’s about exploring the human soul.
As long as you know yourself and you got good people around you and you passionate about what you do, that’s all that matters because at the end of the day, you go to sleep with the people you love, you wake up with the people you love, and you spend your time with the people you love.
If you look into your own heart, and you find nothing wrong there, what is there to worry about? What is there to fear?
Information technology and business are becoming inextricably interwoven. I don’t think anybody can talk meaningfully about one without the talking about the other.
Dreams about the future are always filled with gadgets.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Dreams are illustrations from the book your soul is writing about you.
Marsha Norman
I have often been asked what I think about at the moment of take-off. Of course, no pilot sits and feels his pulse as he flies. He has to be part of the machine. If he thinks of anything but the task in hand, then trouble is probably just around the corner.
Amelia Earhart
I give all my life to football; I only think about football. This is what is on my mind all the time.
I just stay in my own lane and not worry about what anyone else is doing and settling my own pace.
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.
The easiest diet is, you know, eat vegetables, eat fresh food. Just a really sensible healthy diet like you read about all the time.
I try to bring the audience‘s own drama – tears and laughter they know about – to them.
I prefer to be alive, so I’m cautious about taking risks.
People don’t care about what someone says about you in a movie – or even what you say, right? They care about what you build. And if you can make something that makes people’s life better, then that’s something that’s really good.
I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.
It’s about working hard, resting when you need to, leading a healthy life, and having a support structure around you. These factors help you improve.
Growing up, I knew I was different. But I didn’t know what it meant to be Aboriginal. I just knew that I had a really big, extended family. I was taught nothing about who we were or where we came from.
I’m not gay, so I don’t know much about Broadway musicals.
I try not to think about my life. I have no life. I need therapy.
Why should I care about posterity? What’s posterity ever done for me?
That’s the thing about awards – it’s for the people who do all the hard work behind the scenes. An award is just a clap at them.
Life is about how much you can take and keep fighting, how much you can suffer and keep moving forward.
I want to remind the new generation about the power of old school romance.
I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond.
Great theatre is about challenging how we think and encouraging us to fantasize about a world we aspire to.
With each film, you are still trying to get the length and measure right. And failure is all about others’ perception of you. When you have one success, they think you know it all. But if you fail, they think they know it all.
Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious.
We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology.
I don't like to commit myself about heaven and hell - y

I don’t like to commit myself about heaven and hell – you see, I have friends in both places.
For the most part, Islam is about peace. It’s dealing with submission to the most high. Mohammed is a prophet, a messenger. But at the same time, we’ll fight in the name of Allah. We’re not going to let you disrespect our prophet.
There’s something about childhood friends that you just can’t replace.
Lisa Whelchel
Yes, money is important. But it’s all about the creative process.
I always think about the idea that God never gives you more than you can handle, and just the idea that God would be looking at me and thinking, ‘Eh, I think she can handle more.’ And the angels thinking, ‘What are you doing? You’re a lunatic.’ And God being like, ‘No, no, trust me. She can handle this.’
Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we’re being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That’s what’s insane about it.
It’s a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.
Allah says in the Qur’an not to despise one another. So the criterion in Islam is not color or social status. It’s who is most righteous. If I go to a mosque – and I’m a basketball player with money and prestige – if I go to a mosque and see an imam, I feel inferior. He’s better than me. It’s about knowledge.
Hakeem Olajuwon
There’s something about a humid, dusky evening that’s kind of sexy.
Sam Trammell
You go through life wondering what is it all about but at the end of the day it’s all about family.
Spiritual identity means we are not what we do or what people say about us. And we are not what we have. We are the beloved daughters and sons of God.
That old law about ‘an eye for an eye’ leaves everybody blind. The time is always right to do the right thing.
You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.
It is not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about?
Caring about others, running the risk of feeling, and leaving an impact on people, brings happiness.
Harold Kushner
Zen does not confuse spirituality with thinking about God while one is peeling potatoes. Zen spirituality is just to peel the potatoes.
Haters never win. I just think that’s true about life, because negative energy always costs in the end.
Dishonesty is all about the small acts we can take and then think, ‘No, this not real cheating.’ So if you think that the main mechanism is rationalization, then what you come up with, and that’s what we find, is that we’re basically trying to balance feeling good about ourselves.
Dan Ariely
Certainly, last year we did an episode about the census and sampling versus a direct statistic. You just said the word ‘census,’ and people fall asleep.
Beast Mode On is a state of mind. Beast Mode is about applying yourself and defying the limitations people put on you.
I’m responsible for what I say, but I’m not responsible about how people interpret my situation.

Succeeding in business is not just about making money.
Daniel Snyder
You can control two things: your work ethic and your attitude about anything.
A real gentleman, even if he loses everything he owns, must show no emotion. Money must be so far beneath a gentleman that it is hardly worth troubling about.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I realized that if my thoughts immediately affect my body, I should be careful about what I think. Now if I get angry, I ask myself why I feel that way. If I can find the source of my anger, I can turn that negative energy into something positive.
Vulnerability is about showing up and being seen. It’s tough to do that when we’re terrified about what people might see or think.
Memorial Day isn’t just about honoring veterans, its honoring those who lost their lives. Veterans had the fortune of coming home. For us, that’s a reminder of when we come home we still have a responsibility to serve. It’s a continuation of service that honors our country and those who fell defending it.
Don’t worry about the horse being blind, just load the wagon.
A man is what he thinks about all day long.

A man is what he thinks about all day long.
I’ve got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.
When you want something so badly, you just do it. You don’t think about how hard it’s going to be.
Lisa Vidal
The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
When you take care of yourself, you’re a better person for others. When you feel good about yourself, you treat others better.
A true community is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social web network. It’s about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role.
Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next.
Nothing in life is quite as important as you think it is while you’re thinking about it.
Fight for the things that you care about, but do it in a way that will lead others to join you.
Don’t worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you’ll have to ram them down people’s throats.
Howard Aiken
Waiting is a period of learning. The longer we wait, the more we hear about him for whom we are waiting.
Make no mistake about it. Bad habits are called ‘bad’ for a reason. They kill our productivity and creativity. They slow us down. They hold us back from achieving our goals. And they’re detrimental to our health.
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Carlos Castaneda
Most of me was glad when my mother died. She was a handful, but not in a cute, festive way. More in a life-threatening way, that had caused me a long time ago to give up all hope of ever feeling good about having had her as a mother.
Make a difference about something other than yourselves.
Diversity is about all of us, and about us having to figure out how to walk through this world together.
No matter what you achieve, what you want to aspire to be, or how famous and powerful you become, the most important thing is whether you are excited about each and every moment of your life because of your work and people around you.
We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think. Think. Think. You can never trust the human mind anyway. It’s a death trap.
When we talk about ‘smart transportation,’ it is more than moving cargo from A to B. Digitization within transport and logistics means seamless service to our customers, visibility in the supply chain, and driving a more efficient business.
People who don’t take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year. People who do take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year.
The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible.
My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don’t think about it, I just have it.
If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.
Bruce Lee
I never really had a celebrity crush when I was little. I know some of my friends have posters up on their bedroom wall; I was never really about that.
We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.
When you look good, you feel good. Confidence with what you’re wearing is very important. If you feel good, you will always perform your best without worrying about anything.
I don’t care half so much about making money as I do about making my point, and coming out ahead.
Cornelius Vanderbilt
I am very excited about the prospect of using cryptocurrency, not just as a money equivalent, but using it as a way to earn something as a result of doing some type of work.
I understood that with the swipe of my pen as a prosecutor, I would have the decision in my pen to make a decision about someone’s life.
Leadership is not about you; it’s about investing in the growth of others.
One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don’t invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.
You can never get all the facts from just one newspaper

You can never get all the facts from just one newspaper, and unless you have all the facts, you cannot make proper judgements about what is going on.
Our normal waking consciousness, rational consciousness as we call it, is but one special type of consciousness, whilst all about it, parted from it by the filmiest of screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different.
I do not love to be printed on every occasion, much less to be dunned and teased by foreigners about mathematical things or to be thought by our own people to be trifling away my time about them when I should be about the king’s business.
Hands-on experience is the best way to learn about all the interdisciplinary aspects of robotics.
George Bush doesn’t care about black people.
I don’t blame or complain about things like the economy, the government, taxes, employees, gas prices, or any of the external things that I don’t have control over. The only thing I have control over is my response to these things.
Being the Queen is not all about singing, and being a diva is not all about singing. It has much to do with your service to people. And your social contributions to your community and your civic contributions as well.
Literature is the art of discovering something extraordinary about ordinary people, and saying with ordinary words something extraordinary.
Boris Pasternak
What we call the ‘world’ and the ‘universe’ is only one frequency range in an infinite number sharing the same space. The interdimensional entities I write about are able to move between these frequencies or dimensions and manipulate our lives.
Each of you possesses the most powerful, dangerous and subversive trait that natural selection has ever devised. It’s a piece of neural audio technology for rewiring other people’s minds. I’m talking about your language.
Mark Pagel
Every mistake you make allows you to be honest because what’s in the dark will come to light, so it’s better to be truthful about it.
Future
No one gossips about other people’s secret virtues.
To me, punk is about being an individual and going against the grain and standing up and saying ‘This is who I am’.
Joey Ramone
When you’re challenged to the extreme, you learn so much about yourself. And when you’re willing to give that ultimate sacrifice, when you’re willing to tackle a job or a task or a mission head-on and give 100%, you can achieve amazing things because you’re almost fearless.
I’ve gotten very good at scheduling my life, scheduling the scene and preparing myself for knowing, saving the energy, consuming the energy, knowing when to go for it and having the available reserves to be able to do that. You have to think about that, because it’s endurance.
I don’t react to a tragic happening any more. I took so many bad things as a kid and some people think I don’t care about anything. It’s just too hard for me to get emotional. I can’t cry no more.
Don’t worry about the world coming to an end today. It is already tomorrow in Australia.
Charles M. Schulz
Everybody’s journey is individual. If you fall in love with a boy, you fall in love with a boy. The fact that many Americans consider it a disease says more about them than it does about homosexuality.
If you haven’t got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me.
Alice Roosevelt Longworth
I found the experience of falling in love or being in love was a death: a death of everything. You kind of watch yourself die in a wonderful way, and you experience for the briefest moment – if you see yourself for a moment through their eyes – everything you believed about yourself gone. In a death-and-rebirth sense.
You can’t have a better tomorrow if you are thinking about yesterday all the time.
I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion about the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it.
Failed plans should not be interpreted as a failed vision. Visions don’t change, they are only refined. Plans rarely stay the same, and are scrapped or adjusted as needed. Be stubborn about the vision, but flexible with your plan.
Fluency is the developmental process that connects decoding with everything we know about words to make the meaning of the text come to life. Fluency is a wonderful bridge to comprehension and to a life-long love of reading.
I’m at peace with what I’m doing, I feel good with what I wake up doing and about my lifestyle.
When one makes a Revolution, one cannot mark time; one must always go forward – or go back. He who now talks about the ‘freedom of the press’ goes backward, and halts our headlong course towards Socialism.
What do I care about law? Ain’t I got the power?
Cornelius Vanderbilt
Drones can be useful tools, and I am all about useful tools. One of my mottos is ‘the right tool for the right job.’
In math, you could get 100 percent. It was very fair. That’s what I liked about math. You could figure it out, and the teacher couldn’t have a stupid opinion about it.
People’s behavior makes sense if you think about it in terms of their goals, needs, and motives.
If you can keep your wits about you while all others are losing theirs, and blaming you. The world will be yours and everything in it, what’s more, you’ll be a man, my son.
Everyone has a right to their own opinion about me, and

Everyone has a right to their own opinion about me, and that’s fine. I’m just going to keep being myself and living my life. That’s all I can do.
Every kid goes through puberty, wondering what to do about girls and struggling with homework, and every adult has been through that.
One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute.
Once you really know yourself, can’t nobody tell you nothing about you.
The worst thing about some men is that when they are not drunk they are sober.
The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot forever fence it out.
Time plays a role in almost every decision. And some decisions define your attitude about time.
John Cale
Lack of something to feel important about is almost the greatest tragedy a man may have.
Arthur E. Morgan
Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever gave myself. I don’t put it on a platform. I don’t campaign about it. It’s just something that works for me. It enabled me to really connect with another human being – my wife, Sheryl – which I was never able to do before.
The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you. You’re in a conversation and everybody’s agreeing with what you’re saying – even if you say something totally crazy. You need people who can tell you what you don’t want to hear.
It’s really not about what you have. It’s about how you’re able to enjoy life in general.
People know if you care about them. How do you show people that you care? By caring for them. By putting their needs first. By sacrificing for them. By serving them. Do that, and you’ll build a great team.
If a writer knows enough about what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one ninth of it being above water.
A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large.
I ain’t here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way yall need Jesus.
Most people give up just when they’re about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.
Ross Perot
Lying is a cooperative act. Think about it. A lie has no power whatsoever by its mere utterance. Its power emerges when someone else agrees to believe the lie.
I have taken lot of risks in life, and I believe that life is about taking risks.
Accept everything about yourself – I mean everything, You are you and that is the beginning and the end – no apologies, no regrets.
There have to be reasons that you get up in the morning and you want to live. Why do you want to live? What’s the point? What inspires you? What do you love about the future? If the future does not include being out there among the stars and being a multi-planet species, I find that incredibly depressing.
The science of psychology has been far more successful on the negative than on the positive side… It has revealed to us much about man’s shortcomings, his illnesses, his sins, but little about his potentialities, his virtues, his achievable aspirations, or his psychological health.
I’m hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter. That’s what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that’s from being bright all the time, and trying to be brighter.
Hold up a mirror and ask yourself what you are capable of doing, and what you really care about. Then take the initiative – don’t wait for someone else to ask you to act.
If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word of mouth is very powerful.
There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.
Evolution is all about looking forward.
In human intercourse the tragedy begins, not when there is misunderstanding about words, but when silence is not understood.
If you worried about falling off the bike, you’d never get on.
If you do not think about your future, you cannot have one.
John Galsworthy
Life’s short. Anything could happen, and it usually does, so there is no point in sitting around thinking about all the ifs, ands and buts.
We are not about to send American boys 9 or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.
Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say 'inf

Don’t use words too big for the subject. Don’t say ‘infinitely‘ when you mean ‘very’; otherwise you’ll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.
There is an optical illusion about every person we meet.
For myself, personally, I am never really aware of timing or anything because I am passionate about what I do, so I have found that if you really love what you do, then time flies.
I see the church as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars. You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else.
Brands are all about trust. That trust is built in drops and lost in buckets.
The more you embrace the weird crazy things about you, the more you find your tribe.
People always talk about how time flies; it’s become sort of a colloquialism now. You don’t really understand it until you reach your late 30s and early 40s – and I’m sure time will move even faster as I get older.
I think the healthy way to live is to make friends with the beast inside oneself, and that means not the beast but the shadow. The dark side of one’s nature. Have fun with it and you know, is to accept everything about ourselves.
We always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love – first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.
Life is busy. There are daily concerns and obligations that have to be met, and to take time to think about how precious and special a human life is that you only get one, and that every wasted minute is lost. You can’t get it back.
The great thing about pastry is there are so many avenues – it’s very hard to get bored doing this.
I’m not concerned about all hell breaking loose, but that a PART of hell will break loose… it’ll be much harder to detect.
Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o’clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.
America… just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable.
You hear a lot about God these days: God, the beneficent; God, the all-great; God, the Almighty; God, the most powerful; God, the giver of life; God, the creator of death. I mean, we’re hearing about God all the time, so we better learn how to deal with it. But if we know anything about God, God is arbitrary.
Computing is not about computers any more. It is about living.
Leadership is not about the next election, it’s about the next generation.
If we are all in agreement on the decision – then I propose we postpone further discussion of this matter until our next meeting to give ourselves time to develop disagreement and perhaps gain some understanding of what the decision is all about.
Alfred P. Sloan
The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you.
I’m excited about what the future will bring and I think the best is yet to come.
There are an endless number of things to discover about robotics. A lot of it is just too fantastic for people to believe.
Life is too short and too sweet to complain about the silly things.
You have to stay true to your heritage; that’s what your brand is about.
It’s about respect and the morals and the value of life. And treat people how you want to be treated. That’s the biggest thing I was brought up on from my parents.
Football is now all about money. There are problems with the values within the game. This is sad because football is the most beautiful game. We can play it in the street. We can play it everywhere.
A company is a group organized to create a product or service, and it is only as good as its people and how excited they are about creating. I do want to recognize a ton of super-talented people. I just happen to be the face of the companies.
Listen to your mom and dad! They are almost always right, especially about boys.
Melissa Ordway
Beauty is about what’s inside us, loving who we are and nurturing that. Outward beauty can really blossom from there.
In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: it goes on.
Sometimes we make the process more complicated than we need to. We will never make a journey of a thousand miles by fretting about how long it will take or how hard it will be. We make the journey by taking each day step by step and then repeating it again and again until we reach our destination.
What is wonderful about great literature is that it transforms the man who reads it towards the condition of the man who wrote.
Being sexy is all about attitude, not body type. It's a

Being sexy is all about attitude, not body type. It’s a state of mind.
Everyone makes mistakes; it’s about the way you respond to it that’s really important.
The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn’t think they could learn before, and so in a sense it is all about potential.
Success is not about how much money we have in the bank, but it’s about how many peoples’ lives we have impacted through it. Success is experienced when we do things which are never done before.

God’s plan for enlarging His kingdom is so simple – one person telling another about the Savior. Yet we’re busy and full of excuses. Just remember, someone’s eternal destiny is at stake. The joy you’ll have when you meet that person in heaven will far exceed any discomfort you felt in sharing the gospel.
The cars we drive say a lot about us.
Alexandra Paul

I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage.

Usually, our constitutions expand liberties, they don’t contract them.
I have a complex feeling about genre. I love it, but I
