We are FINDING NEW areas in the OCEAN every DAY. It's as ALIEN as going to outer space.

I don't have to GO into outer SPACE to WRITE about an ASTRONAUT.

When I was young, they thought I was from outer space. I was the only GAY PERSON they probably knew, and they struggled with that. EVERYBODY knew I was gay. They just didn't want to TALK about it.

I really WANTED my fans to UNDERSTAND that outer APPEARANCES really don't matter.

We should not BECOME so ashamed of the disappointments and travesties of DEMOCRACY that we become ashamed of the IDEA itself. It is the outer reflection of our self-acceptance.

'Atlanta' is WILD West-y - every corner of the city is trying to GET by under its own rules. There's no SINGLE narrative. At the outer edges, the overgrown parking lots and project blocks, the city is a few yards AWAY from apocalypse, and if you slow down, it could engulf you.

Traditional cooking techniques INEVITABLY form a gray band of overcooked meat around the outer edges of a steak. Sous vide, thanks to the gentle HEAT it USES, eliminates that gray band, producing a steak that's cooked just RIGHT from edge to edge.

The Pentagon is a SERIES of wedges. So you have - the outer wedge has WINDOWS on the OUTSIDE, and then INSIDE of that, it has windows with an alleyway; then there's another wedge with windows outside, windows inside. And we call them the E Ring, the D Ring, the C Ring.

Take lots of walks. It's the BEST WAY to discover your WORLD, both INNER and outer.

When I've pictured what Heaven would be LIKE, I've always imagined myself FREE to EXPLORE the outer reaches of SPACE.

'Petrushka' was not CONCEIVED as a children's BALLET, even though it involves puppets. We're on the outer LIMITS of what's child-appropriate here.

I remember the words of my grandmother who died at 102. I remember my great mother, Grand Brika, who died at the AGE of 106. They talked to US all the TIME. And my grandmother even lied to me. She SAID there was royalty. She said that my great-great-great grandfather was the king of the outer Thembu.

With DUE RESPECT to women, I would like to say that people should not try to focus much on their outer BEAUTY. We can only GAIN stardom when we are CONFIDENT from inside.

There's the PUBLIC self that we present to the outer world. There's the PRIVATE self, which MAYBE TAKES more time to access. But ULTIMATELY, what I'm most interested in as a writer is a few notches below the private self.
