I can't understand Urdu, Bahasa or Russian, but when the Pakistani Faiz, the Indonesian Rendra and the Russian Rosdentvensky declaim, I can feel the living throb of rhythm and music, the warmth and passion of their poetry, as do the hundreds, not a mere roomful, of poetry lovers in the audience.

When I saw Kate Moss's champagne tower...If you want to accomplish the goals of your life...You can't run a government from one single person...Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers...I've always fought as a heavyweight...The butterfly counts not months but moments...
