Part of obama's persona is self-reliance. he's calm; he's cool; he's self-possessed. in many ways, he has tried to define himself in opposition to clinton's sometimes needy, often undisciplined, emotionalism.

Cool is spent. cool is empty. cool is ex post facto. when advertisers and pundits hoard a word, you know it's time to retire from it. to move on. i want to suggest, therefore, that we begin to avoid cool now. cool is a trick to get you to buy garments made by sweatshop laborers in third world countries. cool is the triumph of the will. cool enables you to step over bodies. cool enables you to look the other way. cool makes you functional, eager for routine distraction, passive, doped, stupid.

And so the reliance on property, including the reliance on governments which protect it, is the want of self-reliance.

It's a very erroneous strategy to try to push the russian opposition to unite. first of all, the opposition is addressing different parts of russian society that have differing points of view. and besides, a united opposition is a nice big target that the authorities have a much easier time fighting. and besides, resisting an authoritarian regime with an authoritarian opposition merely means that, in the event of victory, you're just doing yet another round of the same old, same old.

An opposition is necessary and desirable for the healthy development of any country. you can scarcely find anyone in opposition, except for the communists, just like in yeltsin's times. it is regrettable that there is still no constructive, clear and large-scale opposition in russia. the growth and development of an opposition, as well as the maturing of other democratic institutions, will take more time and experience.

I challenge hillary clinton; take away your secret service. take it away now! take away your secret service! dismiss them! have no security around you. have no guns around you, hillary. i dare you! i dare you! obama, same thing. drop your guns, obama! take your secret service away, obama. take it all away! leave the white house unguarded, obama. let everybody know there's no guns on the white house grounds, obama. you know what would happen in 30 seconds? both of those people would no longer be on planet earth.

I'd like to be remembered as a guy who tried - who tried to be part of his times, tried to help people communicate with one another, tried to find some decency in his own life, tried to extend himself as a human being. someone who isn't complacent, who doesn't cop out.

At that moment, harry fully understood for the first time why people said dumbledore was the only wizard voldemort had ever feared. the look upon dumbledore's face as he stared down at the unconscious form of mad-eye moody was more terrible than harry could have ever imagined. there was no benign smile upon dumbledore's face, no twinkle in the eyes behind the spectacles. there was cold fury in every line of the ancient face; a sense of power radiated from dumbledore as though he were giving off burning heat.

I want to be cremated so people won't come to worship at my bones.

I always looked upon the acts of racist exclusion, or insult, as pitiable, from the other person. i never absorbed that. i always thought that there was something deficient about such people.

We must, therefore, coolly and objectively adopt the standpoint that it can certainly not be the intention of heaven to give one people fifty times as much land and soil in this world as another.
