aggressive defense felt flying run
We felt like they play a very aggressive and flying defense, so we felt like we'd be able to run the ball.

The fact is there should not be any mercury in any vaccine.
issues energy directors
Since stepping down as laboratory director in 1999, I have devoted an increasing fraction of my time to international issues. I am involved with energy, environment, and sustainability issues, particularly as they involve new energy sources free of greenhouse gases.
new-york children march
I was born on 22 March 1931 in New York, the elder child of Abraham and Fanny Richter.
mistake sometimes obsolescence
Starving the future to feed the present is a mistake - it leads to obsolescence and stagnation. Sometimes it is hard to make this understood.

stuff bad-stuff
I am so constituted that I had rather read bad stuff than nothing.

I felt exactly like the man in the advertisement who has not devoted fifteen minutes a day to the study of the classics. If only (I thought) I had devoted fifteen minutes a day to the cultivation of the aesthetic attitude! I could bound Afghanistan.

American literature has been, and is, singularly deficient in established critics who have anything like a rational conception of their jobs. The majority, initiate in a few of the patent rituals of Aristotle and Quintilian , don the forbidding robes of high priests to Sweetness and Light, and go about their business much as if the idea were to keep all they know to themselves.
color people important
A news sense is really a sense of what is important, what is vital, what has color and life - what people are interested in. That's journalism.
girl lonely art
Men and women who are lonely create. Those who are gregarious rarely do... Any poet would rather bed with a girl than write a poem about her. All art is the result of frustration. Art is energy deflected from its normal course in action.
writing wife window
What no wife of a writer can ever understand is that a writer is working when he's staring out of the window.
