More From Daniel Patrick Moynihan

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
I never ever would have thought initially it would have been someone like pierce playing charles. i think he has an innate likeability to him, as soon as you meet him he's very, very charismatic. charles, on the page, was someone who's very domineering and quite a negative character, and pierce just by being pierce can change the whole dynamic of it, which made for a much for interesting relationship. he's a really nice guy.
Nice Character Thinking
It's like everybody's sitting there and they have some kind of veil over their face, and they look at each other through this veil that makes them see each other through some stereotypical kind of viewpoint. if we're ever gonna collectively begin to grapple with the problems that we have collectively, we're gonna have to move back the veil and deal with each other on a more human level.

The quran says nothing about the veil, except for an injunction to veil the bosom, which is obvious. as for the face, muhammad's wife khadijeh never wore the veil, nor did the other wives of the prophet after khadijeh died. [...] the ulema have twisted the quran with their hadith, always twisting it toward those in power, until the message muhammad laid out so clearly, straight from god, has been reversed, and good muslim women are made like slaves again, or worse.
Wife Veils Hadith
If a dream can tell the future it can also thwart that future. for god will not permit that we shall know what is to come. he is bound to no one that the world unfold just so upon its course and those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that god should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? where the dreamer and his dream?
Dream Lying Vision
Women in america read 'lifestyle' pages which are really glorifications of shopping. they teach us we must veil ourselves in make-up to be loved. and we willingly take the veil, thinking ourselves freed by it. make-up is no more optional for us than the veil is for arab women: it is our western version of the chador.
