• La honestidad tiene una hermosa y refrescante sencillez. Sin segundas intenciones. Sin significados ocultos. Ausencia de hipocresía, duplicidad, juegos políticos y superficialidad verbal. A medida que la honestidad y la integridad real caractericen nuestras vidas, no habrá necesidad de manipular a los demás.

• Things need to be properly named. Political confusion starts with terminology confusion. Islamism implies some sort of political and social plan for Muslim people. In that classification, we find different categories. Legalist ones, traditional ones and revolutionary ones. Some of them are revolutionary but are non-violent, others are extremely violent. There are also the ones we call the literalists, like the Egyptian party Hizb al-Nour that used to be against democracy and now is getting into the political game.

• Docs are more exhausting because of the physical labor that's required. Feature filmmaking is more exhausting because of politics and the bullshit.

• La inteligencia y el coraje de Ben Skinner nos adentran en las entrañas de la bestia y sacan a la luz la horrible verdad de la esclavitud moderna. En lugar de sensacionalismo, Un crimen tan monstruoso nos ofrece una visión y un análisis que necesitamos desesperadamente. Se trata de un libro importante, la primera mirada en profundidad a la confusa relación actual de Estados Unidos con el tráfico de seres humanos y la esclavitud. La equilibrada disección que hace Skinner de las desordenadas políticas de nuestro gobierno será controvertida, pero también puede ser la base de una nueva agenda antiesclavista, que ponga fin a los juegos políticos que se juegan con las vidas de los esclavos.

• IS [Islamic State] has played a major role in helping Bashar al-Assad to reposition Syria on the international scene. Now, it is almost impossible to come up with a solution that would exclude him. The political game appears to be very cynical indeed.

• The American people know the economy is too weak. Too many of them are suffering. So the question for Washington is, are we going to continue to play political games and - and - or are we going to say, we can do something right now to create jobs, to put money in the pockets of the middle-class, hire construction workers, teachers, veterans?

• Forget that New Orleans is actually a little like the Combat Zone with French cooking, it still happens to be part of the great state of Louisiana where people play the political game the same way it's played in Lebanon. The place is one layer after another of tribes, factions and at least a million laughs.
