My greatest challenge has been to change the mindset of people. Mindsets play strange tricks on us. We see things the way our minds have instructed our eyes to see.

As life runs on the road grows strange with faces new - and near the end. The milestones into headstones change Neath every one a friend.

All things must change to something new to something strange.

I worked for this company that repossessed cars. Sure enough the day after I quit they repossessed my car but that would probably be my strangest job to date. You have to work your way up to become a hardcore repo man.

The alarm rings 4:45 again at 5 but I wake up 4:30 naturally. Shower shave orange juice perk my own coffee hear the news and the CBS car arrives 5:30.

I could be on 52nd and Third in Manhattan up and ask a strange for directions and they will help you that's a rural heart. Your car breaks down in the middle of Iowa or somewhere or Tennessee where I'm from people want to help each other. Given each opportunity you see how people come together.

I've got two old Volvos two old Subarus and an old Ford Ranger. If you've got an old car you've gotta have at least several old cars 'cause one's always gonna be in the garage.

There are people in the public sector with a range of experiences that have no equivalent in business but are essential to governing like keeping a kid in school or helping someone get and hold a job. The value of those skills can't easily be measured against a bottom line.

Money is a strange business. People who haven't got it aim it strongly. People who have are full of troubles.

What men have called friendship is only a social arrangement a mutual adjustment of interests an interchange of services given and received it is in sum simply a business from which those involved propose to derive a steady profit for their own self-love.

I had arranged a birthday party for him and my children who are all Aquarians. Instead we got married. I ran out of excuses. It was just us and my children.

It's odd the things that people remember. Parents will arrange a birthday party certain it will stick in your mind forever. You'll have a nice time then two years later you'll be like 'There was a pony there? Really? And a clown with one leg?'

Thirty was so strange for me. I've really had to come to terms with the fact that I am now a walking and talking adult.

The world is a crazy beautiful ugly complicated place and it keeps moving on from crisis to strangeness to beauty to weirdness to tragedy. The caravan keeps moving on and the job of the longform writer or filmmaker or radio broadcaster is to stop - is to pause - and when the caravan goes away that's when this stuff comes.

We also maintain - again with perfect truth - that mystery is more than half of beauty the element of strangeness that stirs the senses through the imagination.

Solitude has its own very strange beauty to it.

Beauty and the Beast seemed like it all was really brown. The whole thing was just so brown and orange and yellow like Burger King or something. I don't think I would have liked Beauty and the Beast at any age.

Oh who can tell the range of joy or set the bounds of beauty?

Beauty can come in strange forms.

You can't possibly fathom the ins and outs of a prepubescent beauty treatment until you've felt the strange but exhilarating tingle of a cottage-cheese-and-Pop-Rocks facial.

Physical beauty is such a strange thing.

What is sacred among one people may be ridiculous in another and what is despised or rejected by one cultural group may in a different environment become the cornerstone for a great edifice of strange grandeur and beauty.

Jordan has a strange haunting beauty and a sense of timelessness. Dotted with the ruins of empires once great it is the last resort of yesterday in the world of tomorrow. I love every inch of it.

There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion.
