Dick Van Dyke was my first idol. Hes an amazing physical comedian, like a classic clown, but also very smart and not afraid to show vulnerability. – Douglas Wood
The Government of the absolute majority instead of the Government of the people is but the Government of the strongest interests and when not efficiently checked, it is the most tyrannical and oppressive that can be devised. – John C. Calhoun
