Political correctness is the fascism of the 90’s, it is this rigid feeling that you have to keep your ideas and your way of looking at things within very narrow boundaries or else you’ll offend someone.
Certainly one of the purposes of journalism is to challenge just that way of thinking, and certainly one of the purposes of criticism is to break boundaries, that’s also one of the purposes of art.

The true gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will and an acute sense of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all emergencies; who does not make the poor man conscious of his poverty, the obscure man of his obscurity, or any man of his inferiority or deformity; who is himself humbled if necessity compels him to humble another; who does not flatter wealth, cringe before power, or boast of his own possessions or achievements; who speaks with frankness but always with sincerity and sympathy; whose deed follows his word; who thinks of the rights and feelings of others, rather than his own; and who appears well in any company, a man with whom honor is sacred and virtue safe.
~
John Walter Wayland

To love is to place others before you and to make their needs your priority. Do it. When you put somebody else at the center of the frame, your entire world changes, and for the better. You begin to find your own place in the world. When you are drawn into the lives of others, you enter their problems, their hopes, their dreams, their families. They whisk you down unimagined corridors, toward possibilities that had been hidden to you before. So resolve to do little things for others. You do not know where they are going to lead but then again, you do not have any idea where your life is going to lead.
~ Tony Snow
 
Summer ends, and autumn comes, and he who would have it otherwise would have high tide always and a full moon every night.

You learn to write the same way you learn to play golf... You do it, and keep doing it until you get it right. A lot of people think something mystical happens to you, that maybe the muse kisses you on the ear. But writing isn’t divinely inspired – it’s hard work.
~ Tom Clancy
 
The difference between the almost right word & the right word is really a large matter--it's the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.
~ Eleanor Roosevelt
 
A society that aims for equality before liberty will end up with neither equality nor liberty. And a society that aims first for liberty will not end up with equality, but it will end up with a closer approach to equality than any other kind of system that has ever been developed.
~ Milton Friedman
