• Save your wack rhymes, hold your female.
  Pass the Old Gold, trash the ale.
  Cash your food stamps, get the WIC out the mail.
  Love to eat shrimps, but I never eat snail,
  Eat a whole fish except for the tail.
  Keep food in the fridge so it don't get stale,
  And when there's nothing to eat...I bite my nails.

• Desire animates the world. It is present in the baby crying for milk, the girl struggling to solve a math problem, the woman running to meet her lover and later deciding to have children, and the old woman, hunched over her walker, moving down the hall of the nursing home at a glacial pace to pick up her mail. Banish desire from the world, and you get a world of frozen beings who have no reason to live and no reason to die.

• On the one hand, you don't want to disrupt the nation with what might look like a vindictive prosecution, even though it might not be. On the other hand, you want equal justice under the law and if [Hillary Clinton] has violated the law - you know, the FBI never completed the Foundation investigation. That's, as far as I know, that's still an ongoing investigation. They completed the e-mail investigation, but not the Foundation investigation.
