More quotes by Andrew Sullivan
For me, friendship has always been the most accessible of relationships - certainly far more so than romantic love. Friendship, I learned, provided a buffer in the interplay of emotions, a distance that made the risk of intimacy bearable, a space that allowed the other person to remain safely another person.

Al Gore's problem, in my view, is that he never liked politics. He's actually deeply uncomfortable in it but felt he had to do it because of his father. He's much more comfortable in a private sector role and has, in fact, been much more successful in a private sector role, and I admire him for that.

It is not an opinion that enhanced interrogation techniques are torture. It is a legal fact. And it is also a legal fact that the president is a war criminal.

[D]id you really expect fairness on the environmental issue? For a swathe of reporters, this is not a matter of empirical reporting it's a matter of faith. Bush cannot be pro-environment because he's Bush.

Obama is looking good because he kept his nerve and retained his restraint. That's a tough combo: nerve and restraint. It takes a cold-bloodedness to pull this off, and there are times when ice seems to run through the man's veins.
