I've read a lot of war writing, even World War I writing, the British war poetry of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, Robert Graves's memoir 'Goodbye to All That', and a civilian memoir, 'Testament of Youth', by Vera Brittain.

Hosting the Oscars is much like making love...I can be logical if I have to...Pray as though everything depended on God...An iPod, a phone, an internet mobile communicator...Great woman belong to history and to self sacrifice...Gender equality is more than a goal in itself...
