I read five books on the Constitution. My favorite was 'Plain, Honest Men' by Richard Beeman. I went on a science jag in the same way. I kept getting in arguments about evolution and being bested. So I read Charles Darwin's 'On the Origin of the Species,' a fantastic book that is not that difficult.
Denis O'Hare
According to the now almost universally accepted theory, all the races of mankind had a common origin.
Ellsworth Huntington
I asked all of our recruiters to give me all resumes of prospective employees with their name, gender, place of origin, and age blacked out.

Martin Campbell
Stuart Hall was an utterly unique figure. Although he arrived at the age of 19 from Jamaica and spent the rest of his life here, he never felt at home in Britain.

Martin Jacques

Said Nursi
