• As a result of overdiversification, their (active managers) returns get watered down. Diversification covers up ignorance. Active managers haven't done enough research into any of their companies. If managers have 200 positions, do you think they know what's going on at any one of those companies at this moment?

• Neoconservatives and the Pentagon have good reason to fear the return of the Vietnam Syndrome. The label intentionally suggests a disease, a weakening of the martial will, but the syndrome was actually a healthy American reaction to false White House promises of victory, the propping up of corrupt regimes, crony contracting and cover-ups of civilian casualties during the Vietnam War that are echoed today in the news from Baghdad.

Of course, my binge eating was just a cover-up for the larger issue: Trying to fill the emptiness

• Cremation has become the most popular form of burial in the United States... People used to want a big, thick granite stone, their names carved into with a chisel. I was here dammit!

• Antes se utilizaba el mito de que la fotografía no miente para encubrir trucos. Si te [hago] un retrato, te acomodo, te ilumino, te maquillo o uso un filtro, ¿no estoy manipulando la realidad? La única diferencia es que ahora puedo hacerlo desde el ordenador en el postclic en lugar del preclic. Si decido fotografiar algo en lugar de otra cosa, también manipulo la realidad. Por supuesto que una fotografía puede mentir o cometer abusos, pero siempre ha podido.

• Nixon clearly broke the law in the cover up of Watergate and hush money payments. That was all criminal activity. With these guys, we're not talking about the kind of common crimes that Nixon committed. I can't tell you whether they are technically breaking the law, but basically, the American government has been hijacked by neoconservatives. They are taking an awful lot of national security operations into the White House.

• Después de 'Freaks and Geeks', tuve que lidiar con varios productores que querían tapar todas mis marcas de belleza, todos y cada uno de los lunares de mi cuerpo. Intentaron tapármelos en los dos primeros episodios de Dawson's Creek y parecía ridículo, así que tuve que ponerme firme. Pero no es algo de lo que me sienta insegura.
