“I've made a contribution to my time and my generation through being myself, not through what I shared with the Rolling Stones. It's very bad for me and very dangerous to see myself as someone who had an influence on this song or that song. It immediately puts me in the position where my worth is dependent on how much of my soul I shared with Mick Jagger, and it's just not valid. You can use the gossip you've heard. You're not getting it from me.” MadeSoulUseSongGenerationsHeardInfluenceDangerousPositionStonesMy SoulMy TimeContributionDependentGossipRollingMy GenerationRolling StonesBeing MyselfJagger Author:Marianne Faithfull
“Even somebody like Bill Clinton, who I happen to admire very much, the second he was out of office, I remember, he was interview in Rolling Stone and he said he thought we should have legalized marijuana. And I thought, gosh, if only you were in some sort of position to affect change in the last eight years where you could have done something about that.” IfsShouldYearsSaidDoneHappensLastsRememberPositionOfficeStonesShould HaveBillsClintonEightAdmireInterviewsMarijuanaRollingRolling Stones Author:Bill Maher
“Churchill decides from very early on that he will create a political position that is somehow above left and right, embodying the best points of both sides and thereby incarnating the will of the nation. He thinks of himself as a gigantic keystone in the arch, with all the lesser stones logically induced to support his position. He has a kind of semi-ideology to go with it - a leftish Toryism: imperialist, romantic, but on the side of the working man.” ThinkingMenKindPoliticalLeftNationsSidesSupportPositionStonesIdeologyBoth SidesArchesWorking ManLeft And RightKeystones Book:The Churchill Factor: How One Man Made History Source: The Churchill Factor: How One Man Made History

“Betrayal was a stone beneath a mattress of thr bed you shared, something you felt digging into you no matter how you shifted position.

“Our model of Nature should not be like a building-a handsome structure for the populace to admire, until in the course of time some one takes away a corner stone and the edifice comes toppling down. It should be like an engine with movable parts. We need not fix the position of any one lever; that is to be adjusted from time to time as the latest observations indicate. The aim of the theorist is to know the train of wheels which the lever sets in motion-that binding of the parts which is the soul of the engine.” KnowsNeedsShouldSoulScienceCoursesKnowledgePositionBuildingModelsStonesAimStructureTrainCornersAdmireObservationWheelsEnginesHandsomeBindingTheoristsEdificeLevers Author:Arthur Eddington
