Norman Cousins

Like a celestial chaperon, the placebo leads us through the uncharted passageways of mind and gives us a greater sense of infinity than if we were to spend all our days with our eyes hypnotically glued to the giant telescope at Mt. Palomar. What we see ultimately is that the placebo isn't really necessary and that the mind can carry out its difficult and wondrous missions unprompted by little pills. The placebo is only a tangible object made essential in an age that feels uncomfortable with intangibles, an age that prefers to think that every inner effect must have an outer cause. Since it has size and shape and can be hand-held, the placebo satisfies the contemporary craving for visible mechanisms and visible answers . The placebo, then, is an emissary between the will to live and the body.

C. S. Lewis

Music. A meaningless acceleration in the rhythm of celestial experience.

Susan Dunn

We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals.

Religious institutions should have religious freedom on this issue. No church or minister should ever have to conduct a marriage that is inconsistent with their religious beliefs. But I think as a civil institution, this issue's time has come and we need to move forward.

Adam Gollner

We respect Band Aid's ability to raise so much money for relief efforts, but their lyrics seem so misguided and inappropriate.

Bob Collins

We've asked all our section pros to put their program up on the Web site and I'm really, really excited the way they're starting to get involved.

Paul Stamm

We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done.

Henry David Thoreau

What sort of philosophers are we, who know absolutely nothing about the origin and destiny of cats?

Rob Thomas

We're most pleased with it when it's revelatory character stuff, when we're getting her attitude and philosophy out of that voice-over. I'll even have her being deflecting and defensive within first-person narration. She's a prickly girl.

Stephen Flynn

With no debate in Congress or directive from the White House, the Pentagon has narrowly defined its role as 'homeland defense' against an enemy attack from outside the United States, limiting its role in disaster response to a last-resort backfill for civil authorities. Not surprisingly, that philosophy dictates a very passive posture.

Ted Jackson

We're going to change our philosophy on defense. We were a little passive last year. We have some kids who can play man coverage, so we might be able to come after teams a little more. We don't want to be sitting ducks like we were last year.

Carl Pope

What this contest proves to me is that average people can solve problems better than our corporate and political leaders.

What has become clear to many Americans is that the electoral system is bankrupt. As the political process becomes more privatized, outsourced, and overrun with money from corporations and billionaires, a wounded republic is on its death bed, gasping for life.

Steven Miller

What happens is they sell out to the union. The union took over in the '60s and '70s, and administrators are under political pressure. They don't serve the kids. They serve their political masters.

Ron Shapiro

What makes it different is that it's not only a legal issue but it's been made a political issue. That makes the athlete much more vulnerable. These guys will keep stirring the pot and stirring the pot.

What's lacking here is a sense of urgency, a political will to get these things done.

David M. Kelley

When I was in high school, I lettered in math. The only thing that was important was football. There were two other letters that were awarded each year. One was in math and one was in science.

Mario J. Molina

When I was in elementary school, I was very interested in science already. I must have been ten or eleven years old. I started experiments with chemistry sets at my home in Mexico.

John Carpenter

When I was a kid, I loved 'The Curse of Frankenstein,' 'The Creeping Unknown,' 'X: The Unknown.' I love 'Forbidden Planet,' 'The Thing from Another World.' They were science fiction/horror movies, generally.
