So basically my view is I don't want to support the exploitation of animals and within reason I will do what I can to avoid it but it's not like it's a religion for me. It's not like I consider I'm polluted if somehow some bit of milk or cheese or something passes my lips.

The humanists' replacement for religion: work really hard and somehow you'll either save yourself or you'll be immortal. Of course that's a total joke and our progress is nothing. There may be progress in technology but there's no ethical progress whatsoever.

It's not that you know when a relationship doesn't work and there are issues you have to somehow work it out if there are children involved.

I'm certainly not the first person to be in a relationship with a younger man but somehow I was plucked out as a bit of a poster girl.

If my career continues along its current arc people will probably look at me and see a writer who is obsessed with the relationship between rich and poor and with how the rich somehow or other always manage to betray the poor even when they don't mean to.

It is easy for Christians to have the false impression that once we have established a relationship with Christ which we believe sets us right with God the problems of life will somehow scoot away or they will slowly be removed from our lives.

Heroes are those who can somehow resist the power of the situation and act out of noble motives or behave in ways that do not demean others when they easily can.

The nature of catastrophe is after all reasonably unvarying in the way it ruins destroys wounds and devastates. But if something can be learned from the event - not least something as profound as the theory of plate tectonics - then it somehow puts the ruination into a much more positive light.

Money has too big an influence on our politics in Washington and somehow we need to do something about that.

Beware the politically obsessed. They are often bright and interesting but they have something missing in their natures there is a hole an empty place and they use politics to fill it up. It leaves them somehow misshapen.

Poetry is fascinating. As soon as it begins the poetry has changed the thing into something extra and somehow prose can go over into poetry.

My pet peeve and my goal in life is to somehow get an adjective for 'integrity' in the dictionary. 'Truthful' doesn't really cover it or 'genuine.' It should be like 'integritus.'

I feel like every project I've ever done has had music involved in it somehow.

Entertainment came out of this thing called a television and it was gray. Most of the films that we saw at the cinema were black and white. It was a gray world. And music somehow was in color.

I became interested in folk music because I had to make it somehow.

There are movies that require fantasy and slightly more fantastical acting. Lines that are good for certain movies in real life circumstances would be absolutely unbelievable things to really say and you would look at these people like they're freaks for conversing that way. But somehow for certain styles of movies it works and it seems fine.

I just like movies that somehow expose the world in a way that's different than you imagine it.
