Not everyone has something to say. This will not stop them from saying it.

Too often our leaders cannot work for the greater good because they acknowledge no good greater than politics. But if that's truly our prime directive and highest imperative, God help us all.

Any work of art represents a series of conscious choices on the part of the artist - what color to paint, what note to play, what word to use - in that artist's attempt to share what is in his or her soul. The audience is free to accept or reject those choices it is emphatically not free to substitute its own.

Do that which serves your cause, not that which serves your rage.
