I was up late last night yapping about the elections on CNN and up early this morning doing the same thing in my daughter's kindergarten class.

I have no way of knowing how people really feel, but the vast majority of those I meet couldn't be nicer. Every once in a while someone barks at me. My New Year's resolution is not to bark back.

The modern tribalism of the left demands that each person choose a group and then agree with everything that group agrees with. And anybody who leaves that group is stoned to death.

Canada is a sweet country. It is like your retarded cousin you see at Thanksgiving and sort of pat him on the head. You know, he's nice, but you don't take him seriously. That is Canada.

It's not the despair, Laura. I can take the despair. It's the hope I can't stand. ~ Brian Stimpson, Clockwise

I've never read a book on shape. I've read books on gesture; I've read tons of books on color, surface, field, ground, representation, abstraction. But I've never read a book on what a shape is.

Do not always be thinking of attack! Moves that safeguard your position are often far more prudent.

There's never been anybody in the history politics in America that's been so abusive to women. So you can say any way you want to say it, but Bill Clinton was abusive to women.

He who jumps for the moon and gets it not leaps higher than he who stoops for a penny in the mud.

If we had no language we'd have nothing.
