...summit meetings. There is a time for almost everything in the strange world of diplomacy. But surely, if the usefulness of these senior figures is to be protected and the raising of false hopes avoided, such meetings should occur, if at all, at the end of the negotiating process, and for the purpose of formalizing agreements already arrived at, rather than at the beginning and as a means of starting the wearisome process of accommodation ... It is not the hectic encounters of senior statesmen under the spotlight of publicity which we need; it is the patient, quiet, orderly...
...women who visit beauty salons would be delighted to share: she is petite (98 Ibs.). Says Jean Thorn: "I hate it. I take vitamin pills and everything to fatten up a bit."

"I'm not going to be angry with anyone," he said, "no matter which side loses." He looked and acted like a dumpy, fatherly man who could forgive his children their mistakes...
...KQED's programs include a 30-show series on the U.S. economy, and a twelve-part series on The World and Physics, conducted by Physicist Teller. Each is a high-level professional show, but each is also entertaining. Philosophized Day: "Being high-minded is not enough. This process of discovery that we call education is exciting, and we should make it so." KQED-TV has done just that, and out of gratitude and civic pride, San Francisco's citizens have responded with financial support to help keep it proudly solvent...
