Pastoral Resources

Well, my definition of a tragedy is a clash between right and right.

We don't have as many managers as we should, but we would rather have too few than too many.

Let us go forth with fear and courage and rage to save the world.

The tragedy of all of this is that it happened to me and it shouldn't have happened. It ruined my life and my career. That's the tragedy of this.

Our marriage is between us. If we decide to continue being together or not, it's our business.

I spent 10 years as a marketing manager. I've found my experience in the financial world invaluable background for writing about white-collar crimes.

Body language is essential for an actress, even if you don't use your body in an athletic way. Just to be free, to use it like your voice. A body can be small and have incredible violence. A body talks.

Certain kinds of speed, flow, intensity, density of attacks, density of interaction... Music that concentrates on those qualities is, I think, easier achieved by free improvisation between people sharing a common attitude, a common language.

The smaller the function, the greater the management.

It was the courts, of course, that took away prayer from our schools, that took away Bible reading from our schools. It's the courts that gave us same-sex marriage. So it is quite a battlefield, and the Supreme Court is the highest court in the land.

The staff, stage managers, ushers all behaved as if they respected the actors.

A gloss is a total system of perception and language.

House Republican leadership have refused to allow a clean minimum wage vote. Close to 15 million Americans will be affected if we did this. Do Republicans really expect a family to live on less than $11,000 a year?

Today a minimum wage earner has to work a day and a half just to pay for a full tank of gas. That is simply shameful.

Working-class Americans have waited too long, close to a decade in fact, for an increase in the minimum wage. This has been the second longest period without a pay raise since the Federal minimum wage law was first enacted in 1938.

It is shameful that millions of Americans are suffering the economic injustice of working a full-time job and earning a wage that leaves them below the poverty line.

Love is not weakness. It is strong. Only the sacrament of marriage can contain it.

While prices of goods continue to rise, American worker's wages remain stagnant.

After the tragedy, New Yorkers are more united than ever in their vision, as well as in appreciation what living in freedom means - and that if we stand together, we can accomplish anything.

Losing a game is heartbreaking. Losing your sense of excellence or worth is a tragedy.
