“Near yonder copse, where once the garden smil'd, And still where many a garden flower grows wild, There, where a few torn shrubs the place disclose, The village preacher's modest mansion rose. A man he was to all the country dear, And passing rich with forty pounds a year; Remote from town's he ran his godly race, Nor e'er had chang'd nor wish'd to change his place; Unskilful he to fawn, or seek for power, By doctrines fashion'd to the varying hour; Far other aims his heart had learn'd to prize. More bent to raise the wretched than to rise.” MenYearsHeartStillsCountryWishGrowsHoursRaceRichFashionFlowerGardenTownsAimRaisesRoseDearPassingDoctrinePassingsRanFortyPoundsPrizeVillagePreacherModestBentTornGodlyWretchedMansionsClergymenShrubsFawns Book:The Miscellaneous Works: Poems.

“I have been in Washington for a while now, and most things don't surprise me. The fact that twenty 6-year-olds were gunned down in the most violent fashion possible and this town couldn't do anything about it was stunning to me.” YearsHas BeensFactsPoliticalPoliticsCommunityLeadershipPartyViolenceFashionPolicyEthicsTwentiesTownsSurpriseViolentPolitical PartiesStunningSurprise MePartisanship Author:Barack Obama
“When you're a well-known fashion photographer, modeling agencies call constantly. They'll say, This great girl is in town for three days. She's excellent, she's exciting. You've got to see her... So I decided to really have a look at them. I opened up my studio and said, Send anyone... And I became quite addicted to the whole thing. I was curious to see how many girls would come. I couldn't believe that there really were so many around.” BelieveWellsLooksSaidWholeGirlThreeKnownFashionDecidedExcitingTownsPhotographerStudiosCuriousExcellentAgencyWell KnownModeling Author:Jurgen Teller
“Fashion Week was at Bryant Park and there were a few shows like Marc Jacobs, or when Alexander McQueen came to town, that were offsite, Helmut [Lung] was offsite, but it was very intimate. It wasn't the way it is today where you have a thousand people at the show. You may have had 200 to 250 and it was really the trade and you know fashion greats.” PeopleKnowsWayMayShowsTodayWeekFashionThousandTownsTradeIntimateParksLungsJacobMcqueenFashion Week Author:Roopal Patel
