compassion race self
People sinking into self-pity and depression are dreary, but they can't get out of it by themselves. So every now and then, just sit there and listen, and listen, and listen. You're paying your membership dues in the human race.
talking perfect people
The aging process seems to strike first at the mechanism which warns that we have been talking too much and the listener is growing restless. The signal isn't perfect at any age - drink, for instance, throws it right out of kilter - but it is almost non-existent in old people.
party milk instance
Homogeneity is much to be admired - in milk, for instance - but not for parties.
party modern share
The origin of a modern party is anthropological: humans meet and share food to lower hostility between them and indicate friendship.
love-you parent want
Being a parent is tough. If you just want a wonderful little creature to love, you can get a puppy
badass fighting battle
This is what I tell, especially young women, fight the big fights. Don't fight the little fight... Be the first one in, be the last one out. Do your homework, choose your battles. Don't whine, and don't be the one who complains about everything. Fight the big fight.
media want poverty
The news media in general are liberal. If you want to be a reporter, you are going to see poverty and misery, and you have to be involved in the human condition.
new-york moving adventure
New York is a galaxy of adventure at once elegant, exciting and bizarre. It's a city that moves so fast, it takes energy just to stand still.
hard-work quitting being-there
Work harder than everybody. You're not going to get it by whining, and you're not going to get it by shouting, and you're not going to get it by quitting. You're going to get it by being there.
jobs work thinking
A job is not a career. I think I started out with a job. It turned into a career and changed my life.
acceptance empowerment empowering-women
Most of us have trouble juggling. The woman who says she doesn't is someone whom I admire but have never met.
nice believe men
It would be nice to feel that we are a better world, a world of more compassion and a world of more humanity, and to believe in the basic goodness of man.
challenges purpose bears
Life sometimes brings enormous difficulties and challenges that seem just too hard to bear. But bear them you can, and bear them you will, and your life can have a purpose.
dream helping-others gains
To excel is to reach your own highest dream. But you must also help others, where and when you can, to reach theirs. Personal gain is empty if you do not feel you have positively touched another's life.
