“I argue very well. Ask any of my remaining friends. I can win an argument on any topic, against any opponent. People know this, and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don't even invite me.”
Dave Barry

“There is one topic peremptorily forbidden to all well-bred, to all rational mortals, namely, their distempers.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Jason Calacanis

Damon Evans
“This has been the hottest topic on our plate since the new administration took over. We know you're going to have people who are split 50-50 [over where to play the game].”
“I think he's uncomfortable when the topic is something he's not prepared for or when it's a very hot topic. And when Bush is uncomfortable, he purses his lips and he gets this sour look. 'Don't want to talk about this.' He picks up his tempo, sharpens his tongue. He gets into pointing a finger when he gets defensive.”
George W. Bush
