meaningful way normal
It's not even a question of whether the universe is meaningful or meaningless. It's in what way could it be meaningful, or in what way, if it was meaningful, could that be even more meaningless than normal meaninglessness?
stories want ifs
If something wants to be a story, it will be.
wall church posters
Over to my left is the big grey wall in front of the church. Are we the Thoughts of God? a poster asks. No, I realise. It's the reverse.
mind firsts facts
I erased the thought from my mind, but I couldn't undo the fact that I'd had the thought in the first place.
wonder ifs has-beens
I wonder at what point my life swerved to avoid that, and if that life would have been nicer than the one I've got.
writing trying fiction
One of the paradoxes of writing is that when you write non-fiction everyone tries to prove that it's wrong, and when you publish fiction, everyone tries to see the truth in it.
night play actors

nice guy nice-guy
I'm always playing the nice guy in most of the projects that I do.
bent conscience house personally sacrificed seems sudden white
The sudden ending of a White House career all seems so unceremonious for aides who have personally sacrificed a lot - and sometimes even bent their conscience - to do the president's bidding.

When you speak of the press, of course, you have to speak of different segments of the press. Reporters, straight reporters, wire services, you stick to the facts; you don't create the story, per se. You cover what is happening.
agreed anyone certain covered hard hear reagan
All of us who covered the Reagans agreed that President Reagan was personable and charming, but I'm not so certain he was nice. It's hard for me to think of anyone as 'nice' when I hear him say 'The homeless are homeless because they want to be homeless.'
american-journalist covering
I'm covering the worst president in American history.
ultimately
I've never covered the president in any way other than that he is ultimately responsible.
american-journalist
We won't really know what will happen until it happens.
