I think there is a level of altruism that wants to help fellow human beings Picture Quote #1

Benevolence does not consist in those who are prosperous pitying and helping those who are not. It consists in fellow feeling that puts you upon actually the same level with the fellow who suffers Picture Quote #1

$I probably spend more time writing than reading science fiction. I find that science-fiction literature is so reactive to all the literature that’s gone before that it’s sort of like a fractal.

The literacy level at Mississippi prisons? Fifth grade. Can’t read, what are you going to do? If you’ve got a conviction rap, what are you going to do? It’s a real crisis Picture Quote #1

On more practical level, sometimes joyfulness could be more valuable than fighting for truth Picture Quote #1

The sea does not belong to despots. Upon its surface men can still exercise unjust laws, fight, tear one another to pieces, and be carried away with terrestrial horrors. But at thirty feet below its level, their reign ceases, their influence is quenched, and their power disappears Picture Quote #1

There’s a level of protection you need to give to your kids, and then sometimes you need to just let them figure out things on their own Picture Quote #1

Every time I’ve crossed to a new level of film acting, the film has been a breakthrough project Picture Quote #1

The strength of the scientific establishment in any country is related to its general level of education, not only in supplying large numbers of eager minds for further training, but also in ensuring a public opinion that holds science in esteem and approves financial support Picture Quote #1

It is not possible to erase racism just because African-Americans have reached a level of financial success and crossover appeal Picture Quote #1

I have written a lot about the fine arts, but I’d never written about the literary arts, and so on some level Dante really, you know, spoke to me, as new ground but also familiar ground Picture Quote #1

I’d love to do well on a big weekend with people watching and cheering, of course. But it’s not fair to create an expectation level before I know what is realistic. I want to finish as well as possible. Is that top 20? Top 15? Top 25? You just have to play it by ear Picture Quote #1

My mind-set, my mental game and my hard work is at a first-round level. I play at a first-round level. I’ve done things that most guys haven’t done Picture Quote #1

I said, ‘I got my green card yesterday.’ And he hugged me because he understood that level of relief Picture Quote #1

I think there’s a level of ignorance, when, in the callowness of youth, you imagine that you are inventing the world for the first time. You imagine that your parents don’t know what it feels like to fall in love Picture Quote #1

I’m a realist and I always have been. Quality training is what I do now; before it was a combination of both quality and quantity. Now I’m not trying to be a world-class athlete, I don’t need to train at that level. It’s about being fit, fit for life Picture Quote #1

My ideal audience is on the young side, eager to mutate and move to a higher level of consciousness. I want my images to turn the viewer’s brain into what it is: a flying carpet Picture Quote #1
