Doubt, Door, Denied

The racism, the sexism, I never let it be my problem. It's their problem. If I see a door comin' my way, I'm knockin' it down. And if I can't knock down the door, I'm sliding through the window. I'll never let it stop me from what I wanna do.
Rosie Perez

Racism, Down, Through

Yann Martel

Music, Work, Nature

Time, Play, Learn

Chris Matthews

Trying, Around, Sense

Hugh Grant

Sexy, Wrong, Film

Jonathan Miller

Between, Makes, Difference

Paul Westerberg

Time, May, Anyone

Nicolas Roeg

Morris West

Everything, Small, Put
