If we think we have ours and don't owe any time or money or effort to help those left behind then we are a part of the problem rather than the solution to the fraying social fabric that threatens all Americans.

I got tackled once in a movie theater. I was with my mom and brother and then suddenly I got hit from behind and sort of sprawled out on the candy counter.

You can tell the strength of a nation by the women behind its men.

I worked with John but I had enough sense to walk just a little ways behind him. I could have made more records but I wanted to have a marriage.

You leave old habits behind by starting out with the thought 'I release the need for this in my life'.
