“Women of fashion and character--I do not mean absolutely unblemished--are a necessary ingredient in the composition of good company; the attention which they require, and which is always paid them by well-bred men, keeps up politeness, and gives a habit of good-breeding; whereas men, when they live together without the lenitive of women in company, are apt to grow careless, negligent, and rough among one another.” MenGivingWellsMeanCharacterTogetherGrowsAttentionCompanyFashionHabitMen And WomenPaidRoughIngredientsCompositionCarelessPolitenessBreedingGood CompanyGood Breeding Author:Lord Chesterfield

“Going after a dream has a price. It may mean abandoning our habits, it may make us go through hardships, or it may lead us to disappointment, et cetera.

“I enrolled at a local college, but this time paid attention to myself - took only courses that really interested me, even if they weren't in sequence; kept out of classes with people I knew from high school, because I tended to act like the class clown around them; selected teachers by their teaching style - until I could build up my study habits. I ended up graduating with a 3.97 GPA and got into Harvard for my doctorate.” PeopleIfsSchoolCoursesAttentionClassStudyTeacherTeachingStyleCollegeHabitHigh SchoolPaidLocalsGraduatesClownSequenceHarvardSelectedDoctoratesGpa Author:L.

“A lot of attention has been paid in Latin America to the new generation of nonfiction writers, authors like Julio Villanueva Chang, Diego Osorno, Cristóbal Peña, Gabriela Wiener, Leila Guerriero, Cristian Alarcón, among others. These are writers doing important, groundbreaking work. So the talent is there, as is the habit of radio listenership, and what we propose to do is unite the two. We want to have these immensely gifted journalists - men and women who've already revitalized the long-form narrative - we want them to tell their stories in sound.” MenWantLongHas BeensTwoImportantStoriesAmericaFormSoundAttentionGenerationsTalentHabitMen And WomenPaidRadioNarrativeJournalistLatinNonfictionGiftedProposeLatin AmericaNew GenerationGroundbreaking Author:Daniel Alarcon
“Towards the end of it [working as an escort girl] I could feel myself drifting towards a liquor habit and I had a few minor mental breakdowns due to a what I felt like was a constant chipping away at my personhood (guys thinking I would have unprotected sex with them if they just paid me fifty more dollars, for instance) and a few abusive clients.” IfsThinkingFeelsEndsGuyGirlSexFeltHabitPaidConstantDollarsDuesInstanceFiftyMinorsClientsLiquorBreakdownDriftingAbusivePersonhoodChipping AwayMental Breakdown Author:Marie Calloway
