“Women are different from men in major, major ways. I have found more courage in women than you could ever find in men, and I love men, in terms of father, brother, everyone, disciples, students etc. Yet men have certain powers of compassion that are hard-pressed to be found in a woman to that degree.” MenWayDifferentHardCertainFoundFatherTermCompassionStudentsBrotherDegreesMajorsEtcDisciple Author:Maya Tiwari
“It was with the Industrial Revolution, as society plunged ever more eagerly into the conquest of material riches and bent all its energies to the accumulation of goods, that material poverty became a major problem. Obviously, this meant abandonment or downgrading of spiritual values, virtue, etc. To share or not to share in the increase of the collective wealth-this was the Number One question. It was the desire to acquire wealth that prompted the poor to start fighting.” ProblemSpiritualDesireValuesFightingEnergyWealthPoorNumbersPovertyVirtueShareMaterialsRevolutionMajorsIncreaseRichesAcquireEtcCollectivesGoodsConsumerismBentConquestAbandonmentAccumulationOverconsumptionIndustrial RevolutionMajor ProblemsSpiritual ValuesDowngrading Author:Jacques Ellul
“Sound continues to be a mystery to me, in that one could create infinite songs focusing on the same subject, but depending on the melody, instrument choice, minor or major key, time signature, etc., each song could elicit an entirely different response.” DifferentSongChoicesSoundMysterySubjectsKeysMajorsInfiniteInstrumentsResponseEtcMelodyMinorsSignatures Author:Josh Garrels
“All films created by Walt Disney at the time of his major outpouring of work were carefully crafted to fit scenes, characters, moods and situations. If these elements changed in any way, songs - no matter how good they were - were discarded. Others were written for the new scenes. Many times, character songs were dropped because characters were dropped...sequences were dropped etc.” IfsWayMatterCharacterFilmSongSituationWrittenChangedFitSceneElementsMajorsMoodEtcSequenceDiscardedWalt Author:Richard Sherman
“The September 11 attacks were major atrocities. . . . This was a horrendous crime . . .

“At the time, in 1996, an electronic band signing with a major label was something new, at least in France. Daft Punk knew that this meant a marathon of promotion, TV appearances, etc. To protect themselves and to be discrete, they came up with the masks and, three years later, the robot helmets.” YearsThreeTvsBandProtectMajorsAppearanceLabelsFranceEtcMaskSomething NewThree YearsPunkRobotsMarathonPromotionSigningHelmetDaftDiscreteDaft Punk Author:Pedro Winter
“Now we characterise Russian-Chinese relations as a strategic partnership, even a special strategic partnership. We have never had such a level of trust with China before. China is our major trade and economic partner among foreign states. We implement joint multi-billion projects. We cooperate not only within the UN Security Council, which is logical, as both China and Russia are permanent members of the UN Security Council, but also within such regional organisations as the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, BRICS, etc.” StatesLevelsEconomicSpecialSecurityMembersProjectsMajorsRelationTradeChinaPartnersBillionsRussiaChinesePermanentEtcLogicalCooperationPartnershipCouncilJointsStrategicOrganisationSecurity CouncilShanghaiBrics Author:Vladimir Putin
“Colin did not laugh. Instead he thought, Tampons have strings? Why? Of all the major human mysteries - God, the nature of the universe, etc. - he knew the least about tampons.
