More From Theodore Roosevelt

To follow art for the sake of being a great man, and therefore to cast about continually for some means of achieving position or attracting admiration, is the surest way of ending in total extinction.
Art Mean Men
What interest, zest, or excitement can there be in achieving the right way, unless we are enabled to feel that the wrong way is also a possible and a natural way, nay, more, a menacing and an imminent way? and what sense can there be in condemning ourselves for taking the wrong way, unless we need have done nothing of the sort, unless the right way was open to us as well? i cannot understand the willingness to act, no matter how we feel, without the belief that acts are really good and bad.
Zest Needs Done
It is possible that the meaning of wisdom in hebrew indicates aptitude for stratagems and the application of thought in such a way that the stratagems and ruses may be used in achieving either rational or moral virtues, or in achieving skill in a practical art, or in working evil and wickedness.

To me, achieving tone, achieving consistency, is exactly the job of a director. it is to be the fusing, the nexus of a whole bunch of people contributing to the complex life of a movie. there are actors, there's a cinematographer, there're costume people, set people, there are all these things, and you somehow have to be the person in the middle of it who is making it all synchronize into the same magic bubble.

I think the wikileaks releases furnish us with an opportunity to observe the upper reaches of the american status hierarchy in all its righteousness and majesty. high-achieving colleagues attempting to get jobs for their high-achieving children. foundation executives doing fine and noble things. prizes, of course, and high academic achievement.
Jobs Children Opportunity
In the world it is called tolerance, but in hell it is called despair...the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.

Now came still evening on, and twilight gray had in her sober livery all things clad; silence accompany'd; for beast and bird, they to their grassy couch, these to their nests, were slunk, all but the wakeful nightingale; she all night long her amorous descant sung; silence was pleas'd. now glow'd the firmament with living sapphires; hesperus, that led the starry host, rode brightest, till the moon, rising in clouded majesty, at length apparent queen unveil'd her peerless light, and o'er the dark her silver mantle threw.
