Some things are beyond repair. And that was me.Collection: Mean

Human relationships are rich and they're messy and they're demanding. And we clean them up with technology. Texting, email, posting, all of these things let us present the self as we want to be.

Because he's inspired by the best in us and he challenges us to inspire each other to be the best that we can be.Collection: Mean

And to be different means ‘not like this’ and ‘not like that.’ And the ‘not like’—that’s why postmodernism, with the prefix of ‘post,’ couldn’t work. No negative impulse can work, can produce any happy creation. Only a positive one.Collection: Mean

I feel that a documentarian has an obligation to tell the truth as he or she interprets it.

Global warming may be a 'crisis,' even 'the most pressing environmental problem of our time.' ... Indeed, it may ultimately affect nearly everyone on the planet in some potentially adverse way, and it may be that governments have done too little to address it. It is not a problem, however, that has escaped the attention of policymakers in the Executive and Legislative Branches of our Government, who continue to consider regulatory, legislative, and treaty-based means of addressing global climate change.Collection: Mean

Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.Collection: Mean

The reason is: I treat Rupert's money like it is mine.Collection: Mean
