I grew up in a Hindu household but went to a Roman Catholic school. I grew up with a mother who said, 'I'll arrange a marriage for you at 18,' but she also said that we could achieve anything we put our minds to an encourage us to dream of becoming prime minister or president. ↗

Every time I watch a movie with great special effects I think, ‘Wow. This is so much more lifelike than anything I’ve ever seen.’ The world needs to get with reality and use more computer generated images for our sunrises and landscapes. Or at least Claymation for snow days. Making inanimate snowmen isn’t helping our children make the right kinds of friends: they need to learn the hard way that all their attachments will melt away, that everyone must face life alone. ↗

In the closed circle of the war cabinet, pounded by terrible report after terrible report, there had been uncertainty about whether he could fend off the drift to exploring a deal with Hitler. The determination of the larger group trumped the tentativeness of the smaller, and Churchill fulfilled his role as leader by disentangling himself from defeatism--one of his singular achievements at the end of May 1940. ↗

I have been so very, very fortunate in my life. I've met or been in contact with several of my childhood heroes. I've interacted with people all over this planet, and even though I couldn't possibly hope to remember all their names, I remember a photograph, a poem, a sound, a joke, kind words of encouragement. All is not lost. ↗
