When our grandchildren ask us where we were when the voiceless and the vulnerable in our era needed leaders of compassion and purpose, I hope we can say that we showed up, and that we showed up on time (Wed Quotes)
To pay for my father’s funeral I borrowed money from people he already owed money to. One called him a nobody. No, I said, he was a failure. You can’t remember a nobody’s name, that’s why they’re called nobodies. Failures are unforgettable (Wed Quotes)
Architects should be educated, skillful with the pencil, instructed in geometry, know much history, have followed the philosophers with attention, understand music, have some knowledge of medicine, know the opinions of the jurists, and be acquainted with astronomy and the theory of the heavens (Wed Quotes)
Sometimes things work out on the golf course and sometimes they don’t. Life will go on. You try to understand what happens, but maybe today I don’t want to know. I just screwed up so maybe I should just put it behind me (Wed Quotes)
Our shipment of mowers was lost at sea and while we waited, winter descended and covered our green lawns with snow. That taught me a key lesson, the importance of timing. The shipping company lost the lawnmowers! By the time they showed up no one wanted them, as you can’t cut grass when it’s covered with snow (Wed Quotes)
Cubism is the art of depicting new wholes with formal elements borrowed not only from the reality of vision, but from that of conception (Wed Quotes)
Readers usually ignore the typographic interface, gliding comfortably along literacy’s habitual groove. Sometimes, however, the interface should be allowed to fail. By making itself evident, typography can illuminate the construction and identity of a page, screen, place or product (Wed Quotes)

White is associated with purity because the entire spectrum is functioning in unity. White is a healing color. White is appropriate for weddings because the unity of male and female symbolizes the unity of allness (Wed Quotes)
History viewed from the inside is always a dark, digestive mess, far different from the easily recognizable cow viewed from afar by historians (Wed Quotes)
You know, for a long time being a heavily tattooed woman was viewed as something gross, or you’re either a criminal or a drug addict. It feels good to be a good representation of the art form versus being the token tattoo girl. I’m just glad that people even consider it to be sexy, because I think I’m just a big nerd so it works out (Wed Quotes)
Our philosophy has been to be fiscally conservative, so we can be operationally aggressive. We’re not using borrowed money to grow. So we’ll put up a store just to get there before the competition. If it doesn’t work, we’ll close it and lose a little equity. It won’t kill us (Wed Quotes)
At a time when all the other builders were selling homes with basements but without carports, we would sell homes without basements and with carports. This allowed us to provide a more appealing product at a lower price. In other words, we felt we would be giving customers greater value (Wed Quotes)
Birds, it must be admitted, are the most exciting and most deserving of the vertebrates; they are perhaps the best entre into the study of natural history, and a very good wedge into conservation awareness (Wed Quotes)
I have, despite all disillusionment, never, never allowed myself to feel like giving up. This is my message today; it is not worthy of a human being to give up (Wed Quotes)
When I was at college there were two things I vowed I’d never do. One was go to a funeral and the other was deal with computers. And then I ended up being a computer programmer in a morgue (Wed Quotes)
We are not a religious tradition with a creed, but a religious movement that has always wedded social justice work to theology (Wed Quotes)
Consolidation in the skiing equipment industry cannot be allowed to lead to higher prices, lower quality or less innovative products (Wed Quotes)
The user of land should not be allowed to acquire rights of indefinite duration for single payments. For efficiency, for adequate revenue and for justice, every user of land should be required to make an annual payment to the local government equal to the current rental value of the land that he or she prevents others from using (Wed Quotes)
Like the brief doomed flare of exploding suns that registers dimly on blind men’s eyes, the beginning of the horror passed almost unnoticed; in the shriek of what followed, in fact, was forgotten and perhaps not connected to the horror at all (Wed Quotes)
That’s another thing, we made up games. We didn’t have equipment. When it snowed, we would play slow motion tackle football. We would play hockey, but we wouldn’t skate. We just made things up. I loved doing that (Wed Quotes)
As far as I know, we have never before decided to fight a war with borrowed money and ask generations that come after us to pay for it (Wed Quotes)
I think free speech is probably the coolest thing we have in this country, and again, you can label it hate speech and dismiss it, and then you’re allowed to censor it (Wed Quotes)
The result was the same as tuning down the strings by a semitone and using a capo at the first fret. With less tension in the strings, the sound was more mellow and softer; it also allowed me to cover a larger span of the fingerboard. I used this for quite a few years, but eventually I went back to the standard fingerboard (Wed Quotes)
The only thing poverty does is grind down your nerve endings to a point that you can work harder and stoop lower than most people are willing to. It chips away a person’s dreams to the point that the hopelessness shows through, and the dreamer accepts that hard work and borrowed houses are all this life will ever be (Wed Quotes)
When a woman extends her hand for you to shake it, then you shake her hand. You do not turn it up and kiss it. And it is just so creepy. Because, you know, I handed it at this angle. I handed it at the handshake angle and so I’m not giving it to you to do whatever you want with it. I’m not loaning it to you. It’s like if somebody borrowed your lawnmower and you’re assuming they’re going to use it to mow their lawn. You don’t want to find out later they put it in the ocean! (Wed Quotes)
I’ve got a bike. You can ride it if you like. It’s got a basket, a bell that rings and things to make it look good. I’d give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it (Wed Quotes)
I cannot but regard the ether, which can be the seat of an electromagnetic field with its energy and its vibrations, as endowed with a certain degree of substantiality, however different it may be from all ordinary matter (Wed Quotes)
Safety is the most unsafe spiritual path you can take. Safety keeps you numb and dead. People are caught by surprise when it is time to die. They have allowed themselves to live so little (Wed Quotes)
When all is complete deep in the teapot, when tea, mint, and sugar have completely diffused throughout the water, coloring and saturating it... then a glass will be filled and poured back into the mixture, blending it further. The comes waiting. Motionless waiting. Finally, from high up, like some green cataract whose sight and sound mesmerize, the tea will once again cascade into a glass. Now it can be drunk, dreamily, forehead bowed, fingers held wide away from the scalding glass (Wed Quotes)
