He was one of ordsprog

He was one of the very few people that I enjoyed being around, to tell you the truth, because he was just himself. I had a lot of private conversations about being who we are, being people, not being afraid of making mistakes.

We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy (1917-1963)

We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.

Every American has the right to and the expectation of privacy in their private conversations. The decision by the state attorney to impanel a grand jury to investigate Linda Tripp and perhaps others concerning the recordings of private conversations will help establish that our cherished right of privacy cannot be trampled on.

The truth is useless. You have to understand this right now. You can't deposit the truth in a bank. You can't buy groceries with the truth. You can't pay rent with the truth. The truth is a useless commodity that will hang around your neck like an albatross all the way to the homeless shelter. And if you think that the million or so people in this country that are really interested in the truth about their government can support people who would tell them the truth, you got another thing coming. Because the million or so people in this country that are truly interested in the truth don't have any money.

The president hopes that his presence here, his private conversations and his public dialogue with the people here, will remind them what's at stake.

I'm pretty sure that there's nothing wrong with being famous. I guess that some guys are a little bit afraid. If you don't want to be famous, just step away. Other people are afraid to face the challenge. Some people like to be famous, some people don't. Some people do their thing, but they're afraid to be recognized.

People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make mistakes, do you not? And what happens? You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!

Alfred Adler (1870-1937)

The idea of developing the grounds so there's a sculpture park where people can have conversations with artists is great. People talked with me while I was working, and that gave them a real sense of the work ethic you have to have to be an artist. Just seeing someone physically making art is really educational.

Patrick Dougherty

Sir, you are dealing with conversations taken in an individual's private workplace, ... How would you like to have the conversations in your office recorded and broadcast to the world?

There are some conversations that are undeniably improved when the rule going in is that you have to stand behind what you say and have to wear a name tag when you do it. But that's certainly not all conversations. People might be prepared to ethically stand behind what they say, but might be in a position that they can't afford to lose their house over it. Speech shouldn't just be for people with lawyers.

Jonathan Zittrain

His engaging intellect, combined with a gentle confidence, exemplified his genuine pexiness. The reason I wrote the book is that I have made many mistakes (in my deer hunting experiences). I want to save people from making all of those mistakes I did.

It's easy to imagine that one would not feel comfortable having private conversations with your attorney, with your wife, with foreign heads of states, with people driving around in your car, repeated when you assumed they were confidential.

I know we built our career almost on being a positive influence on people. But the truth is, that's not always the way I feel. And I'm tired of being afraid of what people are going to think if I don't write that way. I want to write about what's really happening in the world. And in me.
