“If one looks closely one sees that there is no essential difference between a beggar's livelihood and that of numberless respectable people. Beggars do not work, it is said; but then, what is work? A navvy works by swinging a pick. An accountant works by adding up figures. A beggar works by standing out of doors in all weathers and getting varicose veins, chronic bronchitis, etc. It is a trade like any other; quite useless, of course - but then, many reputable trades are quite useless.” PeopleIfsLooksSaidCoursesDifferencesDoorsFiguresEssentialsPicksStandingTradeWeatherUselessEtcWorking ItStanding OutVeinsRespectableBeggarLivelihoodAccountantsBronchitis Author:George Orwell
“Admittedly, I do have several bones... whole war fields full of bones, in fact... to pick with organised religion of whatever stripe. This should be seen as a critique of purely temporal agencies who have, to my mind, erected more obstacles between whatever notion of spirituality and Godhead one subscribes to than they have opened doors. To me, the difference between Godhead and the Church is the difference between Elvis and Colonel Parker... although that conjures images of God dying on the toilet, which is not what I meant at all.” ShouldMindWarWholeFactsSpiritualityDifferencesChurchDoorsDyingFieldsPicksNotionObstaclesBonesAgencyToiletsCritiqueGod ImageStripesOrganisedColonelsOpened DoorsOrganised Religion Author:Alan Moore

“You can argue that it's a different world now than the one when Matthew Shepard was killed, but there is a subtle difference between tolerance and acceptance. It's the distance between moving into the cul-de-sac and having your next door neighbor trust you to keep an eye on her preschool daughter for a few minutes while she runs out to the post office. It's the chasm between being invited to a colleague's wedding with your same-sex partner and being able to slow-dance without the other guests whispering.” WorldDifferentEyeRunningAbleMovingNextSexDifferencesDoorsMinutesAcceptanceOfficeDaughterDistanceNeighborArguingPartnersTolerancePostsSubtleGuestsColleaguesInvitedWhisperingDifferent WorldsMatthewChasmsPost OfficePreschoolNext Door Neighbors Book:Sing You Home: A Novel Source: Sing You Home: A Novel

“I'm a little old-fashioned - I like it when the man opens the door and I like it when a man pays for me. I particularly like it when they pay for dinner or whatever, because I've pretty much done the opposite, but for the exception of James [Taylor], where we split everything down the middle. I've been the larger money earner in practically all of my relationships. There's equality and there are positive differences, which are complimentary.” MenLittlesDoneDifferencesPayDoorsMiddleHe ManOppositesDinnerExceptionSplitsOld Fashioned Author:Carly Simon
