More From Colin Powell

I have always felt comedy and tragedy are roommates. if you look up comedy and tragedy, you will find a very old picture of two masks. one mask is tragedy. it looks like its crying. the other mask is comedy. it looks like its laughing. nowadays, we would say, how tasteless and insensitive. a comedy mask is laughing at a tragedy mask.
Two Laughing Tragedy
Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it ... the spirit of liberty is the spirit which is not too sure that it is right; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which seeks to understand the minds of other men and women; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which weighs their interests alongside its own without bias.
Freedom Lying Heart
You see the one thing i've always maintained is that i'm an american indian. i'm not a native american. i'm not politically correct. everyone who's born in the western hemisphere is a native american. we are all native americans. and if you notice, i put american before my ethnicity. i'm not a hyphenated african-american or irish-american or jewish-american or mexican-american.

A local spirit will infallibly prevail much more in the members of congress than a national spirit will prevail in the legislatures of the particular states.

Do not let your spirit be influenced by your body, or your body be influenced by your spirit. be neither insufficiently spirited or over spirited. an elevated spirit is weak and a low spirit is weak. do not let the enemy see your spirit.

Men and women are sacrificed to the idols of profit and consumption: it is the 'culture of waste.' if a computer breaks it is a tragedy, but poverty, the needs and dramas of so many people end up being considered normal. ... when the stock market drops 10 points in some cities, it constitutes a tragedy. someone who dies is not news, but lowering income by 10 points is a tragedy! in this way people are thrown aside as if they were trash.

Similar Quotes
Any long work in which poetry is persistent, be it epic or drama or narrative, is really a succession of separate poetic experiences governed into a related whole by an energy distinct from that which evoked them.

The drama is make-believe. it does not deal with truth but with effect.

You become a character in a meta-drama into which your own dramatizing has pitched you. the rewards can be fantastic, the punishments dismal; it's a zero sum game, and its guarantor of value, its marker is that you pretend you play it solo, preserving the myth that you alone are the wellspring of your creativity.
Zero Drama Creativity
Life, individual or collective, personal or historic, is the one entity in the universe whose substance is compact of danger, of adventure. it is, in the strict sense of the word, drama. the primary, radical meaning of life appears when it is employed in the sense not of biology, but of biography. for the very strong reason that the whole of biology is quite definitely only a chapter in certain biographies, it is what biologists do in the portion of their lives open to biography.
