A Quote by Mary Pilon

'Power breaking,' also called Hanmadang - which means something like celebration or festival in Korean - involves breaking large amounts of wood, concrete, granite, and the like with specific hand and foot techniques.

There are two ways of resisting war: the legal way and the revolutionary way. The legal way involves the offer of alternatinve service not as a privilege for a few but as a right for all.

The problem with breaking up with someone, if you are a little unsure โ€” and so often, people are unsure โ€” is that breaking up involves persuasion.

When you depart from standard usage, it should be deliberate and not an accidental lapse. Like a poet who breaks the rules of poetry for creative effect, this only works when you know and respect the rule you are breaking.

I've always made things either paintings, drawing, photographs, or writing. It's all kind of the same thing. It all involves saying more, I guess.
