I decide on the basis of conscience. A genuine leader doesn't reflect consensus, he molds consensus.
The medals no-one will ever wear should be the ones that reflect the most. It's not an ending, it's not a period at the end of their lives, it's a semicolon. The story will continue to be told.
How do popular attitudes get formed? Do the movies just reflect it or inform it? Where does this particular idea come from? I don't know if I can say anything too illuminating.
How awful to reflect that what people say of us is true!
I think your program has to reflect what your basic feelings are. Ill plead guilty to that.

Let us reflect that we shall always do God's Will and He will do ours when we carry out that of our Superiors.
Somehow, in the novel format, I don't really like to do upfront, ideological discussion. In my heart, literature remains a poetic and ambiguous medium. On the other hand, I trained as a documentary filmmaker in film school, so my films very much reflect reality and socio-political problems. They're less subtle I would say.
We're guessing at our future opportunity cost. Warrenis guessing that he'll have the opportunity to put capital out at high rates of return, so he's not willing to put it out at less than 10% now.
