“Only a dreamer or a fool would pick a stock at random and expect it to take off like a space ship from its launching pad. Certainly this has happened - about as often as a dime-store clerk has become a Hollywood star or a boy born in a log cabin has been elected President of the United States - just often enough, that is, to keep alive the Great American Dream.” Has BeensStatesEnoughDreamStarsPresidentBornSpaceUnitedBoysUnited StatesAliveHappenedFoolPicksHollywoodStoresShipsDreamerAmerican DreamDimesGreat AmericanClerksPadsCabinsLaunchingHollywood StarsLog Cabins Author:Catherine Crook de Camp

“I truly feel sorry to all the fans of the games I have made. Ninja Gaiden 2, which will launch on the 3rd of June will be the last Ninja Gaiden I will create. I will also never be able to make Dead or Alive 5. I regret the circumstances that have forced me to leave Tecmo, where I had worked for so many years, and I regret the disappointment this will cause my fans. However, I can no longer continue to work with President Yoshimi Yasuda, a man who chooses not to honor promises even when he is able to do so. I truly hope that nothing like this happens again in the future.” MenFeelsYearsMadeI CanHappensAbleLastsGamesCausesPresidentAliveFansRegretHonorCircumstancesPromiseSorryDisappointmentJuneI RegretNinja Author:Tomonobu Itagaki
“I think nobody alive today is a more powerful agent of conversion than someone like Mother Teresa. You can refute arguments but not her life. When she came to the National Prayer Breakfast and lectured President Clinton about abortion, he had nothing to say to her. He can't argue with a saint. It's too bad there isn't an easier way, because becoming a saint is not the easiest thing in the world. It's much easier to become an apologist or a philosopher or a theologian.” ThinkingWorldWayTodayMotherPresidentPrayerPowerfulAliveBecomingEasierArgumentClintonSaintPhilosopherArguingConversionAgentsAbortionBreakfastTheologianLive For TodayTeresaPresident Clinton Author:Peter Kreeft
