In my view there is nothing more vicious and outrageous than the abuse exploitation and harm of the most vulnerable members of our society and I firmly believe that our nation's laws and resources need to reflect the seriousness of these terrible crimes.

Hip-hop reflects the truth and the problem is that hip-hop exposes a lot of the negative truth that society tries to conceal. It's a platform where we could offer information but it's also an escape.

My role in society or any artist's or poet's role is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher not as a leader but as a reflection of us all.

The real man smiles in trouble gathers strength from distress and grows brave by reflection.

Well logos is science or reason something that helps us to function practically and effectively in the world and it must therefore be closely in tune and reflect accurately the realities of the world around us.

I try to make an album that reflects what I love about country music. It's not just all about happy parties all the time. There are some sad songs.

And for some reason when I'm sad I do listen to Leonard Cohen I do listen to Joni Mitchell. I do find myself going to the music that's actually reflecting my mood as opposed to sticking on Motown which might actually bring my mood up.

It more or less has the shape of a love song but 'Crescent Moon' reflects more my longing for an ancient romantic context that includes wild animals fire danger of death stellar navigation and seasonal intuition.

Who could look on these monuments without reflecting on the vanity of mortals in thus offering up testimonials of their respect for persons of whose very names posterity is ignorant?

Science without respect for human life is degrading to us all and reflects a hollow and deceptive philosophy a philosophy that we as a people should never condone.
