* In my opinion, Obama is the first president to actually kick ass with viral marketing and social media.

* This will also come in handy when you’re married—“No, honey, not tonight!” is much better than a raw, nonpassionate hand job.

* His strategy was to sit around watching the Yankees all day and talking about the apocalypse, while wearing an oversized nightshirt that said, “Shut up and go to sleep.” It worked.

* I’ve put on swan costumes occasionally in my life, but the Divine always poofs me back into a wolf or an eagle!

* Be honest. Haven’t you ever felt this way before? Maybe you’ve even dated a European and been forced to stand in separate lines at customs? This happens to Ilario and me when we arrive at JFK with our daughter. I mean, please.

* I believe the Divine particularly likes to infiltrate pop culture. And when it’s interpreted properly in pop culture, whether in Schindler’s List, Wings of Desire, Devi, or charitable anthems by Bob Geldof and Quincy Jones, it’s unforgettable.

* I’d just helped Marcus Wainwright and David Neville of Rag & Bone launch their brand, and now I had to ask them to seek other representation; they ended up with Denise Williamson and became the darlings of the industry.

* Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

* Visit CaringInfo.org to download one for free for yourself and your family members.

* I used to think my dreams would be a plateau where I’d live. But dreams get the Divine excited, because it knows you’ll change yourself to achieve them; and after all, the things we want are usually things we need to become.
