I'm focused on solving the problem that would make it plausible for gov't to get back to solving real problems.

The danger in media concentration comes not from the concentration, but instead from the feudalism that this concentration, tied to the change in copyright, produces.

The war against illegal file-sharing is like the church's age-old war against masturbation. It's a war you just can't win.

Creation always involves building upon something else. There is no art that doesn't reuse. And there will be less art if every reuse is taxed by the appropriator.

Before the monopoly should be permitted, there must be reason to believe it will do some good - for society, and not just for monopoly holders.

Monopoly controls have been the exception in free societies; they have been the rule in closed societies.

We are on the cusp of this time where I can say, "I speak as a citizen of the world" without others saying, "God, what a nut."

Of all the creative work produced by humans anywhere, a tiny fraction has continuing commercial value. For that tiny fraction, the copyright is a crucially important legal device.

Technology means you can now do amazing things easily; but you couldn't easily do them legally.

POLISH your MIND to reflect the shimmering BEAUTY of your WORDS and ACTIONS.

You never know if you have met your best friend in life yet. That still may be to come.

The whole thing with modeling with Estee Lauder - no one could have a better, nicer modeling job.

That most sensitive, most delicate of instruments -- the mind of a little child!

It makes sense to work towards a better world, but it doesn't make any sense to have illusions about what the real world is.

Evil is always devising more corrosive misery through man's restless need to exact revenge out of his hate.

I think the world is crumbling when I have a bad game.

You're not what you eat; you're what you believe about what you eat.
