Letters to a Young Poet
These have been called the most famous and beloved letters of the past century. Rainer Maria Rilke himself said that much of his creative expression went into his correspondence, and here he touches upon a wide range of subjects that will interest writers, artists,and thinkers. This luminous translation of Rainer Maria Rilke's classic offers brilliant inspiration to all people who seek to know and express their inner truth. Letters to a Young Poet is a classic that should be required reading for anyone who dreams of expressing themselves creatively.

Gangsta Gangsta — N.W.A.

Jason Sudeikis
Actor
I was just absolutely certain. I had no proof otherwise than a mirror. Nothing signified more the difference between where I was and the rap group NWA from Compton, California – very, very different from Overland Park, Kansas. And this song that I chose is "Gangsta Gangsta" from their beloved album "Straight out of Compton".

Tom Hanks

** Highlights, for me, are when you get to work with a hero.
Tom Hanks would be a great example: when he hosted when I was there, in the monologue I'm dressed up like Jesus, yet he breaks the fourth wall and refers to me as my own name, "You're Sudeikis, right? One of the new guys?" To have the Tom Hanks call you by your real name while you're dressed as Jesus doing a monologue is crazy.
