I’ve always been interested in justice. I think what is happening to the Palestinians represents the ultimate injustice.

Being knee-deep in sadness or suffering and refusing to look down – to me, that represents something more powerful than someone who’s never gone through difficulty.

I have a sense that the USDA and the secretary who represents the USDA has always been seen as either a stranger or adversary to the farming community and a stranger to the consuming community.

There are no genes or areas in the brain devoted uniquely to reading. Rather, our ability to read represents our brain’s protean capacity to learn something outside our repertoire by creating new circuits that connect existing circuits in a different way.
John Wayne represents more force, more power than anyone else on the screen.
I actually don’t label myself, but… Some people call me queer; some people call me bisexual, whatever it is now. I’m happy with all of it ’cause it all sort of represents me, in a way. I spent a majority of my life in the closet.
