I've tried to distance myself from the RISE initiative based off a gut feeling I had. I've done little things here and there, but I wasn't included in the Super Bowl thing they did, and it's something I felt in my gut from the beginning. I respect the work that they've done, but things aren't aligning for me so I try to stay away from it.

I love my fanny pack.

I just want to lead by example.

We're not preparing to lose games.

I have a little bit more of an edge to me.

We are at the moment looking at space as something to be entered by the tremendous thrust of a rocket because that is the attitude of attacking the unknown. And that causes us not to realize that we are already on the most magnificently equipped spaceship, which could hardly be improved upon. It has got a source of temperature and energy just at the right distance from it. It's beautifully equipped with oxygen, with food supplies, with all kinds of delightful things to do while on the journey.... and it's traveling through space at a colossal speed... and it's called the planet Earth.

Alan Watts Philosopher

But too many people now climb onto the cross merely to be seen from a greater distance, even if they have to trample somewhat on the one who has been there so long.

Albert Camus Author

To travel is to discover that everybody is wrong. The philosophies, the civilizations which seem, at a distance, so superior to those current at home, all prove on a close inspection to be in their own way just as hopelessly imperfect.

Aldous Huxley Writer

Comedy is a wonderful device for distance that allows us to look at what we're talking about with some degree of distance and hopefully with a bit more perspective and honesty. With many exceptions, a movie with no jokes is far less appealing to me.

Alexander Payne Film Director

If life is not always poetical, it is at least metrical. Periodicity rules over the mental experience of man, according to the path of the orbit of his thoughts. Distances are not gauged, ellipses not measured, velocities not ascertained, times not known. Nevertheless, the recurrence is sure. What the mind suffered last week, or last year, it does not suffer now; but it will suffer again next week or next year.

Alice Meynell Writer

The past is a candle at great distance: too close to let you quit, too far to comfort you.

Amy Bloom Writer
