• People are always pleased to indulge their religiosity when it allows them to stand in judgment of someone else, licenses them to feel superior to someone else, tells them they are more righteous than someone else. They are less enthusiastic when religiosity demands that they be compassionate to someone else. That they show charity, service and mercy to everyone else.

• Los hombres y mujeres de Bush dicen que luchamos (la guerra de Irak) para golpear al terrorismo - excepto que Irak no tuvo ningún papel documentado en los atentados del 11 de septiembre. Se dice que luchamos por una objeción moral a la tiranía - excepto que no parecemos tan preocupados por los tiranos en naciones que carecen de enormes reservas de petróleo. Se dice todo menos la verdad: que nos precipitamos en una guerra innecesaria en una misión a medias. Y que las repercusiones de nuestra arrogancia nos perseguirán durante años.

• We take fabulousness for granted sometimes. We forget what hard work it is. Indeed, when you consider the grueling hours your average celebrity puts in on the movie set and in the recording studio, when you think of them returning to their mansions so dead tired their drivers have to help them out of the car, well, it just makes you want to cry.

  Hard Work, Tired, Thinking
