Ulysses S. Grant Quotes
My inclination is to whip the rebellion into submission, preserving all Constitutional rights.

Getting to do 'December Songs' in a cabaret-style format was so interesting because it's like a one-woman song cycle that actually tells a story.

I am what some would say 'holy, and wholly other than you.' The problem is that many folks try to grasp some sense of who I am by taking the best version of themselves, projecting that to the nth degree, factoring in all the goodness they can perceive, which often isn't much, and then call that God.

I am far more than that, above and beyond all that you can ask or think.
