To throw obstacles in the way of a complete education is like putting out the eyes.
To me education is a leading out of what is already there in the pupil's soul. To Miss Mackay it is a putting in of something that is not there and that is not what I call education. I call it intrusion.
You cannot live to please everyone else. You have to edify educate and fulfill your own dreams and destiny and hope that whatever your art is that you're putting out there if it's received great I respect you for receiving it. If it's not received great I respect you for not.
In Dreams... well I was slightly overcompensating with that. I was a bit like a director for hire so maybe I was putting too much imagery that was familiar to me into it.
If you continually diet you are putting your body in a quasi-famine situation. It slows your metabolism down and breaks the thermostat. Diets don't work. They don't help you understand why you're eating more than your body wanted in the first place.
My biggest regret is putting my body through fad diets - Atkins cleanses the hCG diet.
I'm sick to death of famous people standing up and using their celebrity to promote a cause. If I see a particular need I do try to help. But there's a lot that can be achieved by putting a check in the right place and shutting up about it.
If forgers and malefactors are put to death by the secular power there is much more reason for excommunicating and even putting to death one convicted of heresy.
Other states are trying to abolish the death penalty... mine's putting in an express lane.
Death is not extinguishing the light it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
