en This is a mechanical job. You have to be able to execute the mechanics of this job. It's a zero-tolerance thing. That's the best way I can put it, ... It requires perfection or almost perfection. If you can't come close enough to that, then things are going to change.

en It's not enough to vote for a democracy, ... Democracy requires vigilance. Democracy requires patience.
  Jesse Jackson

en There is a form of laughter that springs from the heart, heard every day in the merry voice of childhood, the expression of a laughter -- loving spirit that defies analysis by the philosopher, which has nothing rigid or mechanical in it, and totally without social significance. Bubbling spontaneously from the heart of child or man.
  William Osler

en The mere mechanical technique of acting can be taught, but the spirit that is to give life to lifeless forms must be born in a man. No dramatic college can teach its pupils to think or to feel. It is Nature who makes our artists for us, though it may be Art who taught them their right mode of expression.
  Oscar Wilde

  Archibald MacLeish

en All men have poetry in their hearts, and it is necessary for them, as much as possible, to express their feelings. For this they must have a medium, moving and pliant, which can refreshingly become their own, age after age. All great languages undergo change. Those languages which resist the spirit of change are doomed and will never produce great harvests of thought and literature. When forms become fixed, the spirit either weakly accepts its imprisonment or rebels. All revolutions consists of the "within" fighting against invasion from "without"... All great human movements are related to some great idea.
  Rabindranath Tagore

en What I am concerned about in this fast-moving world in a time of crises, both in foreign and domestic affairs, is not so much a program as a spirit of approach, not so much a mind as a heart. A program lives today and dies tomorrow. A mind, if it be open, may change with each new day, but the spirit and the heart are as unchanging as the tides.
  Owen D. Young

en This is really based upon the visual and the hearing but God doesn't use our five senses. He goes heart to heart and spirit to spirit. You lift the exterior, and you're left with the word of God. ... You can't go through this without being affected, especially because the Holy Spirit is here.

en Did you, too, O friend, suppose democracy was only for elections, for politics, and for a party name? I say democracy is only of use there that it may pass on and come to its flower and fruit in manners, in the highest forms of interaction between [people], and their beliefs -- in religion, literature, colleges and schools -- democracy in all public and private life....
  Walt Whitman

en Times change and forms and their meanings alter. Thus new poems are necessary. Their forms must be discovered in the living language of their day, or old forms, embodying exploded concepts, will tyrannize over the imagination.

en The thing about democracy, beloveds, is that it is not neat, orderly, or quiet. It requires a certain relish for confusion.

en I think in the playoffs you probably have to change your game against teams a little bit and adjust a lot, and we adjusted tonight. That's the big thing.

en What is essential in a work of art is that it should rise far above the realm of personal life and speak to the spirit and heart of the poet as man to the spirit and heart of mankind
  Carl Gustav Jung
