Much contemporary verse reads like failed short-short stories rather than failed poetry..

Much of outcomes research is a systematic attempt to exploit what is known and make it better..

Life comes only from life..

It's cool to have it when your money is working for you..

I liked things better when I didn't understand them..

I'm not part of the history, I am the history..

You throw your best punch, otherwise don't do it..

The public makes a hit..

You're always allowed to be better..

I've often been accused of making anthropology into literature, but anthropology is also field research. Writing is central to it..

Of all the sexual aberrations, chastity is the strangest..

There is always someone worse off than yourself..

Our senses are always part of the process..

I'm very claustrophobic..

There is no future without education..

I froze in time! And I thought, "My God... I'm free!".

Obviously it could be, because it was..

Be less than what you are so that you can become more..

Nobody will listen to you unless they sense that you like them..

See shades of grey... Act anyway.

What could be worse than having to be seen resorting to your own life..
