men ifs caustic
If it's a woman, it's caustic; if it's a man, it's authoritative.
thinking literature poetic
No one could ad lib like Peter. You would think that it was all scripted, he was so poetic, but it wasn't.
thinking interviewing-someone
When you're interviewing someone, you're in control. When you're being interviewed, you think you're in control, but you're not.
life work home
A woman can do anything. She can be traditionally feminine and that's all right; she can work, she can stay at home; she can be aggressive; she can be passive; she can be any way she wants with a man. But whenever there are the kinds of choices there are today, unless you have some solid base, life can be frightening.
jobs fighting complaining
Just do your job. Get in early. Stay late, and don’t complain. Fight the big fights.
airplane clouds rainbow
Before we had airplanes and astronauts, we really thought that there was an actual place beyond the clouds, somewhere over the rainbow. There was an actual place, and we could go above the clouds and find it.there.
thinking voice giving
To not sing with an orchestra, to not be able to communicate through my voice, which I've done all my life, and not to be able to phrase lyrics and give people that kind of joy, I think I would be totally devastated.
believe thinking live-your-life
And I really do believe that the most important thing is the way you live your life on earth. But I think it's enormously comforting to believe that you're going to see your loved ones.
people rumor lines
I find very often people like to confront rumors. It depends on how much they trust you. And you have to have a line between what is tasteful and what isn't.
party people cocktails
Large cocktail parties are an infamous technique for ridding yourself of social obligations to people you usually don't know well or like much, which is such an unpromising beginning that I've rarely known one that recovered and turned into a great party.
earth yardsticks cuba
For Castro, freedom starts with education. And if literacy alone were the yardstick, Cuba would rank as one of the freest nations on Earth. The literacy rate is 96 percent.
leadership reality voting
[President Obama] made so many promises. We thought that he was going to be -- I shouldn't say this at Christmastime -- but the next messiah.
thinking office matter
I think most working relationships could benefit by excluding personal matters from the office chatter.
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.
