By giving people the power to share we're making the world more transparent.

It's really very simple Governor. When people are hungry they die. So spare me your politics and tell me what you need and how you're going to get it to these people.

We remain at peace with all nations and no efforts on my part consistent with the preservation of our rights and the honor of the country shall be spared to maintain a position so consonant to our institutions.

Then I realized that secrecy is actually to the detriment of my own peace of mind and self and that I could still sustain my belief in privacy and be authentic and transparent at the same time. It was a pretty revelatory moment and there's been a liberating force that's come from it.

Spare no expense to save money on this one.

Time is like money the less we have of it to spare the further we make it go.

In the same way that we need statesmen to spare us the abjection of exercising power we need scholars to spare us the abjection of learning.

He that hath knowledge spareth his words.

My hope is that we will turn Greece into maybe the most transparent country in the world with everything on the web.

But what I hope for from a book - either one that I write or one that I read - is transparency. I want the story to shine through. I don't want to think of the writer.
