“Harry is heavily into camping, and every year in the late fall, he makes us all go to Assateague, which is an island on the Atlantic Ocean famous for its wild horses. I realize that the concept of wild horses probably stirs romantic notions in many of you, but this is because you have never met any wild horses in person. In person, they are like enormous hooved rats. They amble up to your camp site, and their attitude is: We're wild horses. We're going to eat your food, knock down your tent and poop on your shoes. We're protected by federal law, just like Richard Nixon.” YearsPersonsLawFallRealizingAttitudeMetsOceanLateHumorousConceptsHorseNotionShoesEnormousIslandsCampsProtectedSiteRatsTentsCampingPoopWild HorsesAtlantic Ocean Author:Dave Barry
“From what cause the rite of baptism first proceeded is not expressed formally in the scripture, but it may be probably thought to be an imitation of the law of Moses concerning leprosy, wherein the leprous man was commanded to be kept out of the camp of Israel for a certain time, after which time being judged by the priest to be clean, he was admitted into the camp after a solemn washing. And this may therefore be a type of the washing in baptism, wherein such men as are cleansed of the leprosy of Sin by Faith, are received into the church with the solemnity of baptism.” MenFirstsMayLawCertainCausesChurchSinTypeCleanIsraelScripturePriestsCampsJudgedImitationSolemnMosesWashingBaptismRiteSolemnityBeing JudgedLeprosy Book:Leviathan Source: Leviathan
“How can there be democracy if the leadership in the United States and Britain don't uphold the values which my father's generation fought the Nazis, millions of people gave their lives against the Soviet Union's regime, didn't they? Because of what? Democracy. And what democracy meant. No torture, no camps, no detention forever or without trial, without charges. In solitary confinement. Those techniques which are not just alleged, they have actually been written about by the FBI. I don't think it's being far left - I hope that I'm wrong to consider that it's far left to uphold the rule of law.” PeopleIfsThinkingStatesLawValuesFatherLeftUnitedMillionsUnited StatesForeverDemocracyWrittenGenerationsUnionsTechniqueTrialsTortureBritainCampsSovietRegimesSolitaryNaziSoviet UnionFbiRule Of LawConfinementDetentionSolitary Confinement Author:Vanessa Redgrave
“I grew up in Arkansas and that's the law. My dad was a high school basketball coach, so I was raised as a coach's son and I was a baseball player back in Arkansas, and I lived in Texas, too, so I was just surrounded by sports. So that's what I was going to do: Pitch for the St Louis Cardinals. I had no idea I was going to be an actor. So I got my collar bone broken in the Kansas City Royals training camp.

“I was always attracted to the type of cinema hero as an adolescent growing up in Ireland. Robert Mitchum springs to mind. Later on, it was Steve McQueen to a certain extent and Charles Bronson.
