I'm doing this play right now, the new David Mamet play.

When anyone has the power to destroy the whole human race in a matter of hours, it becomes a moral issue. The church must speak out. Billy Graham
I've been around racing a fairly long time, but when it comes to the important issues, I'm happy to let others make the big decisions. Mats Sundin
I travel Europe every couple of weeks. I just came back from London, Holland and Denmark. Every nation on this planet has its issues with race, and I am not sure if everyone has figured out how to deal with it. Montel Williams
The black community now in many ways divided itself the way the larger white community divides itself, over class issues. And that race is no longer the bond that it once was. That's one of the prices you pay for progress. Ed Smith
I'd always been a news junkie, always read lots of newspapers and watched the Sunday morning news shows on TV and felt strongly about issues of power, control, sexuality and race. Barbara Kruger
Who lives long and who dies prematurely, is the defining issue of our time. And I submit to you, there's a significant race dimension, it is basically class-driven. Jesse Jackson
