“Americans - not just starting thirty years ago but going back to the beginning, when we were rebelling against King George - we've always been of two minds about the government, which is why the framers wrote the Constitution the way they did.” WayYearsMindTwoGovernmentKingsYears AgoConstitutionStartingThirtyThirty YearsFramersTwo Minds Author:William J.

“When I started swimming again two years ago, it felt like I was starting from scratch. My mind-set was [to tell myself that] every time I swam, it was going to get easier-and it did.

“What we saw with both Donald Trump and Marco Rubio, that their response, whenever you point to anything in their record, is just to yell, "Liar, liar, liar," and to get very personal and to make direct character attacks. And my approach, from the very beginning of this President's campaign, starting a year ago in 2015, is that I will not respond in kind. I do not intend to insult any of the candidates.” YearsKindCharacterPresidentRecordsSawsTrumpApproachYears AgoDirectResponseStartingCampaignsCandidatesInsultLiarsMarcos Author:Ted Cruz

“I'm a huge fan of Zach's [Galifianakis] and I auditioned Zach a million years ago on a movie called Duplex which I was fired from. But Zach came in - It was like 2000, maybe - as a buddy stand-up that people were starting to notice and there was something about him I loved. He wasn't quite right for the part in [Keeping Up with the Joneses] and I got fired anyway, so who cares? But I always wanted to work with Zach.” PeopleYearsCareWantedMillionsFansHugeYears AgoStartingWho CaresBuddy Author:Greg Mottola
“I think that most people don't think in terms of an American revolution, they think in terms of a Russian revolution, or even a Ukrainian revolution. But the idea of an American revolution does not occur to most people. And when I came down to the movement milieu seventy-five years ago, the black movement was just starting, and the war in Europe had brought into being the "Double V for Victory" [campaign]: the idea was that we ought to win democracy abroad with democracy at home. And that was the beginning of an American revolution, and most people don't recognize that.” PeopleThinkingYearsDoeIdeasWarHomeWinningBlackTermDemocracyFiveMovementRevolutionOughtVictoryEuropeYears AgoStartingCampaignsFive YearsSeventiesAmerican RevolutionUkrainianMilieuRussian Revolution Author:Grace Lee Boggs
