We must adopt loathsome diseases for our familiar associates, or we shall never be thoroughly acquainted with their nature and dispositions; we must risk, nay even injure, our own health in order to be able to preserve or restore that of others.

I've done a lot of camps and Ryan is great with the kids. He's one of the best coaches in Connecticut. No one even comes close. In three days I've seen a lot of improvement with the kids, where with some other camps you don't see any improvement.

There are moms who choose not to work outside the home, but they aren't polishing silver; they're playing with their kids -- (or) home schooling.

There are very few things that I read that kick me in the gut. This is beyond my wildest guess of how bad it actually is — how bad, how long and how nobody knew about it, ...

They have literally stuck their hands into a hornet's nest. This is going to inflame a lot of scientists who are very, very concerned and are far more knowledgeable in this area than the authors appear to be. This is not the last word -- definitely not.

We have to find a language to communicate with the folks who sign our checks to help them understand that they will not be able to build a valuable journalistic brand without good journalism, which is expensive. This creates a chasm between us that admittedly will be very hard to bridge ... Our job is not to give the public what they think they want because what they want changes or is wrong. Look at how it changed after 9/11. Before 9/11 the public was less interested, according to every survey, in Islam or international news.
