“I don't think the Bonzo Dog could have evolved in America, nor could the old Nice: because of their musical discipline. This is one thing that British groups do have, a sort of discipline. Sometimes it can get a bit soulless, but on the whole I think it's preferable to the American alternative.” ThinkingSometimesWholeAmericaBitsNiceOne ThingGroupsDogDisciplineMusicalBritishAlternativesSoulless Author:Jon Lord

“I think it's relatively easy to play defense against a team that can only do one thing. Unfortunately, that's not what we're talking about here with Seattle. They have a great running back - they have a great group of running backs - but Lynch obviously is really kind of in a class by himself.

“It's weird as actors because I mean we're fortunate in the group of people who have to spend time away from their families. There are men and women serving overseas who certainly have it a lot harder than we do, and there are jobs that take people away from the families, and that's a reality with some jobs that you have. One thing that's really difficult I find is the transition, because not only do you have to learn how to transition to living on your own again, there's a transition that happens learning how to live with somebody again.” PeopleMenMeanRealityHappensJobsActorsDifficultOne ThingGroupsMen And WomenHarderFortunateServingTransitionEnd TimesSpend TimeLiving OnTime Away Author:Chris Pratt
“It is important and vital is to keep that education for critical consciousness around intersectionalities, so that people are able to not focus on one thing and blame one group, but be able to look holistically at the way intersectionality informs all of us: whiteness, gender, sexual preferences, etc. Only then can we have a realistic handle on the political and cultural world we live within.” PeopleWorldWayLooksImportantAblePoliticalConsciousnessFocusOne ThingGroupsBlameGenderCriticalHandleEtcRealisticPreferenceWhitenessIntersectionalityFocus On One Thing Author:Bell Hooks
“If there is one thing that, as a director, you don't want to be a part of, it's a group. It's the same thing with music. I don't want to be a part of a scene. Just leave me alone.

“It's easy to look at the vampires as a metaphor for any feared or misunderstood group.

“The people and the warmakers are two distinct groups. We must never say 'we' when discussing the US government's foreign policy.
