“What we put into every moment is all we have. You can drug yourself to death or you can smoke yourself to death or eat yourself to death, or you can do everything right and be healthy and then get hit by a car. Life is so great, such a neat thing, and yet all during it we have to face death, which can make you nuts and depressed.” MomentsFacesLife IsCan DoCarHealthyDrugSmokeLife And DeathNutsNeat Book:It's Always Something Source: It's Always Something

“Nothing provides the antidote to narcissism, or the environment for the healthy raising of children, or the way for people to take care of one another, as does the marriage of a man and a woman. And while most divorces are terribly sad, divorce itself no more undermines the institution of marriage than car crashes undermine the institution of driving.” PeopleMenWayChildrenDoeCareEnvironmentCarHealthyInstitutionsDivorceTake CareDrivingNarcissismCrashAntidoteCar Crash Author:Dennis Prager
“I was raised in California during the Second World War and into the '50s and everything was fine, everything was great. The sun always shone, everybody looked healthy and wore ties and smoked in restaurants, and there were cars for everybody - except us, because I came from a lower class neighbourhood. But [in France] I realised there was a different point of view, so when I came back to America a year and a half later I was much more focused on my own country culturally and politically.” WorldYearsDifferentWarCountryAmericaMy OwnViewsHalfClassSunCarFineHealthyRaisedFocusedPoint Of ViewFranceCaliforniaTiesWar Of The WorldsRestaurantsRealisedSecond World WarDifferent Points Of ViewNeighbourhoodsLower Class Author:Robert Redford
“There are some really great books that have been written about slavery, but I don't think that the discourse about it in society has been very accurate or healthy. I don't think we've come up with ways to tell it that don't insult people or hit them in the wrong way. Part of the problem is that most people don't really understand what slavery was anyway. Most white people didn't own slaves. Slavery was a way of life, just like driving cars is a way of life now. It doesn't mean that it was right.” PeopleThinkingMeanBookProblemCarHealthySlaverySlaveDrivingInsultReally GreatGreat Book Author:James McBride
