Famous quotes by Lawrence Wright:

"This is great for the Missouri Valley Conference. To have two teams in the Sweet 16, you can't say we're overrated or had too many bids. Just look at our success in the NIT and NCAA Tournament."

"They can't say we are overrated. Our teams have been successful. We are one of the best conferences in the nation."

"I think this is a great thing for the conference. We've got two teams in the Sweet 16. They can't say we're overrated now, or that we got too many teams in the tournament."

"We made a pretty good run until this game came around. I think the NCAA, they just see who's playing the best at the end of the season. I think with 20 wins we should be able to make it in."

"From the very beginning, when you go into Scientology your world narrows down very quickly."

"I get very antsy when I'm not occupied."

"Hubbard set up the Church of Scientology in Hollywood in 1954 for a reason. He understood that celebrity was increasingly a feature of American public life, and celebrities themselves were going to be worshiped as minor deities were in the ancient world. The idea was: if you could get them, think how many people would follow."

"From the very beginning of this movement, Scientology has always been a very closeted organization. That aura of secrecy is something that the present-day management continues."

"People often pulled into Scientology want to address personal problems in their life, and Scientology says we have technology that addresses these kinds of problems. Just focusing on the problems and trying to remedy them can be helpful."

"IRS is very poorly equipped to make a distinction between what is a religion and what is not."

"Journalism is a flawed profession, but it has a self-correcting mechanism. The rule of journalism is: talk to everybody."

"I like the serendipitous surprises of reality."

"I feel like a 1960s graduate student. I still work on note cards. I've never found a better system."

"To me the notion that Palestinians are actually Jews is, I think, quite revelatory and very radical and a possible bridge that has been ignored, I think, in this entire controversy and there's ample evidence to support it."

"I don't hold America responsible for the largely oppressive governments in the 22 Arab countries. There are repressive Arab governments that are our allies and there are those that are our nominal enemies. It doesn't make a whole lot of difference to what extent we're involved in propping up those governments."

"I don't want to constantly be writing about terrorism and strife."

"When I went to Egypt right after 9/11 I was very upset. I used to live in Egypt. I had a lot of friends there. I spent two years teaching there. I had very fond feelings for that part of the world, and the fact that a culture I liked so much had attacked my own culture was really very upsetting to me."

"When I was trained as a journalist, as a race-relations reporter in Nashville covering the end of the civil-rights movement, we were strictly forbidden to use the first-person pronoun. There was kind of an electric charge around it. To come out from hiding and use the word 'I' carried a lot of fright for me."

"There are many different rivers that lead into despair: there's poverty; there's political repression; there's gender apartheid - there's a sense of culture loss; there's religious fanaticism."

"I don't dispute Scientology can help people; I think that is a very important fact to keep in mind."
