I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself.

Start with a clean grill. Keep it clean by brushing with a wire brush after preheating and again after cooking. Make sure to oil your grates and your food before putting it on the grill to keep it from sticking.

I've been to therapists my whole life. I find the less attention I pay to food the healthier I am. Any obsession is dangerous. And a whole country that's obsessed with one thing unless it's like jeans it's very dangerous. Everyone's obsessed right now with carbohydrates in this country. It's ridiculous.

And what Socrates is the food of the soul? Surely I said knowledge is the food of the soul.

As we let our light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear our presence actually liberates others.

A library to modify the famous metaphor of Socrates should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas - a place where history comes to life.

We need a better way to talk about eating animals a way that doesn't ignore or even just shruggingly accept things like habits cravings family and history but rather incorporates them into the conversation. The more they are allowed in the more able we will be to follow our best instincts.

Science we are repeatedly told is the most reliable form of knowledge about the world because it is based on testable hypotheses. Religion by contrast is based on faith. The term 'doubting Thomas' well illustrates the difference.

Fear clogs faith liberates.

Acting is not a mystery. There's nothing that I know that other actors don't know. We all act we're all actors we all know the same thing. The only thing that separates us is experience.

Men and women who have served in harm's way experience higher rates of divorce and suicide. Many battle the debilitating effects and stigma associated with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Our thoughts have an order not of themselves but because the mind generates the spatio-temporal relationships involved in every experience.

My entry into the environmental arena was through the issue that so dramatically - and destructively - demonstrates the link between science and social action: nuclear weapons.

Education liberates a woman.

A writer should get as much education as possible but just going to school is not enough if it were all owners of doctorates would be inspired writers.

Misdirected focus on paperwork on procedures and on bureaucracy frustrates teachers and fails to give children the education they need.

I always recommend a sensible diet including lots of carbohydrates and avoiding too much fat. Dancers don't need different fuel from other people - they just need more of it because they use more energy.

I will admit like Socrates and Aristotle and Plato and some other philosophers that there are instances where the death penalty would seem appropriate.

Dying before dying has two important consequences: It liberates the individual from the fear of death and influences the actual experience of dying at the time of biological demise.

The approach of death certainly concentrates the mind.

It is education that will arm us with the tools that will enable us to succeed and put a stop to the rising rates of preventable death.

Consciousness after death demonstrates the possibility of consciousness operating independently of the body.

The leading cause of death among fashion models is falling through street grates.

Absence from whom we love is worse than death and frustrates hope severer than despair.
