There are roles I am never considered for. Meryl Streep roles, let's say. Why not? I really wanted to do 'Ironweed,' for example, because the depression era in this country was one of the best for multiracial people, because everybody was poor. Everybody lived in the tents, and under buildings, and under gratings, together.

It was 1999, and we were building a way for college kids to create online profiles for the purpose of sharing... with employers. Oops.

The UK now boasts the highest level of broadband availability in the G8. We are now building on those efforts in becoming the first operator in the UK to commit to a national service which is capable of broadband speeds of up to 8Mbps. Our approach in getting the most out of ADSL technology means we get higher speeds to a national footprint as quickly as possible, making sure the opportunities are not just restricted to urban centers or those providers which operate their own networks.

The art and science of memory is about developing the capacity to quickly create images that link disparate ideas. Creativity is the ability to form similar connections between disparate images and to create something new and hurl it into the future so it becomes a poem, or a building, or a dance, or a novel. Creativity is, in a sense, future memory.

I think that both parties should declare the debt limit as a political weapon of mass destruction which can't be used. I mean, it is silly to have a country that has 237 years building up its reputation and then have people threaten to tear it down because they're not getting some other matter.
Warren Buffett

They were not given the right blueprint of how to build a building.
