“It is so easy to waste our lives: our days, our hours, our minutes. It is so easy to take for granted the pale new growth on an evergreen, the sheen of the limestone on Fifth Avenue, the colour of our kids’ eyes, the way the melody in a symphony rises and falls and disappears and rises again. It is so easy to exist instead of live. Unless you know there is a clock ticking.” KnowsWayEyeKidsFallEasyGrowthHoursOur LivesMinutesWasteDisappearGrantedClockColourMelodyPaleFifthSymphonyAvenuesRise And FallEvergreensFifth AvenueClock TickingNew GrowthLimestone Book:A Short Guide to a Happy Life Source: A Short Guide to a Happy Life

“The core of America is not racist. It is not hostile to women. It is increasingly offended by gay bashing. Yet it abhors government waste. It believes strongly in fiscal responsibility such as balanced budgets. It is pro-economic growth. It is concerned about the environment. It is intolerant of people on welfare who disdain the notion of work. But it wants poor kids to have school lunches and it wants to spend money to have good schools. In sum, most Americans are sensible, good-hearted, and prudent. The issue, then, is whether there is a political party that can welcome them home.” PeopleWantBelieveHomeGovernmentKidsSchoolAmericaPoliticalGrowthPoorPartyResponsibilityIssuesEnvironmentEconomicGayWasteConcernedNotionCoreWelcomeBudgetsWelfareRacistLunchSensibleBalancedHostilePolitical PartiesOffendedHeartedEconomic GrowthPrudentDisdainGood SchoolGood HeartedBalanced BudgetFiscal ResponsibilitySchool LunchGovernment Waste Author:Paul Tsongas

We have to get our economy going.” PeopleYearsKidsTodayJobsLastsThreeGrowthHalfMillionsStruggleEconomyCollegeDegreesRateComing OutThree YearsSlow DownSlowingCollege Degree Author:Mitt Romney
