Mostly, theater becomes blander and blander as everyone wants the same thing they saw before. The good plays are the ones that don’t allow you to do that. – Roger Rees
Shipping is the greenest method of transport. In terms of carbon emissions per ton per mile, it emits about a thousandth of aviation and about a tenth of trucking. But it’s not benign, because there’s so much of it. So shipping emissions are about three to four percent, almost the same as aviation’s. – Rose George

I was a painter, then a novelist, then a journalist, then a screenwriter, and now I’m a director, and it feels all part of the same continuum.

While liberals are leery of religious fundamentalism in general, they consistently imagine that all religions at their core teach the same thing and teach it equally well. This is one of the many delusions borne of political correctness. – Sam Harris

I go on expeditions for the same reason an estate agent sells houses – to pay the bills. – Ranulph Fiennes
Give us this day our daily taste. Restore to us soups that spoons will not sink in and sauces which are never the same twice. Raise up among us stews with more gravy than we have bread to blot it with Give us pasta with a hundred fillings. – Robert Farrar Capon

We used to get on planes, and they’d ask who we were, and we’d say, ‘The Dave Brubeck Quartet’, and they’d say, ‘Who?’ In later years they’d say, ‘Oh’, which amounts to the same thing. – Paul Desmond
I thought of a lot of people from the same era when I was making a lot of records that had continued making a lot of records. A lot of it didn’t seem terribly inspired. – Robbie Robertson
Nothing more strongly arouses our disgust than cannibalism, yet we make the same impression on Buddhists and vegetarians, for we feed on babies, though not our own. – Robert Louis Stevenson
To us, basing stories on christianity is the same as basing stories on Roman mythology, Native American folklore, or unsubstantiated government conspiracies. – Richard King
