I'm not like normal people. I'm no good at relationships. I draw drama to me - it's the Jew in me.

Here in my heart, that is where you will be; you will be with me, here in my heart. No distance can keep us apart, long as you are here in my heart.

Storm clouds of terror and dictatorship are gathering over the whole country... They must not be allowed to bring eternal night.

I've been part of founding three companies that have gone public. It doesn't seem like a big number, but it's actually a lot.

I've got my library card and i'm checking you out!

The poet is the man made to solve the riddle of the universe who brings the whole soul of man into activity.
