“The only basis for even talking about global warming is the predictions spewed out by computer models. The only quote/unquote "evidence" of global warming is what models are predicting the climate and the weather will be in the next 50 to 100 years. Now, what those models spit out is only as good as the data that's put in, and it's an absolute joke. In terms of science, it's a total joke.

“Yes sir. You can be more careless, you can put more trash in [a novel] and be excused for it. In a short story that's next to the poem, almost every word has got to be almost exactly right. In the novel you can be careless but in the short story you can't. I mean by that the good short stories like Chekhov wrote. That's why I rate that second - it's because it demands a nearer absolute exactitude. You have less room to be slovenly and careless.

“There are many tired gardeners but I've seldom met old gardeners. I know many elderly gardeners but the majority are young at heart.

It is easy to age when there is nothing to believe in, nothing to hope for, gardeners, however, simply refuse to grow up.” KnowsYearsBelieveHeartDoeHas BeensDreamAgePastYoungDeathNextGrowsEasyGrowing UpMetsGardenAbsolutesMajorityTiredRefuseGardeningElderlyNext YearGardenerHopes And DreamsYoung At Heart Author:Allan Armitage
