Frequently Asked Questions
What is the celebrity-related quote about being engaged?
It's a lighthearted, gossipy reference asking who Charlie Sheen is again and noting that Denise is engaged. See the Charlie quotes page for more in that vein.
Is there a quote urging people to stay civically engaged?
Yes, one line calls directly for people to stay engaged and remain part of the process, using the word in a civic rather than romantic sense. It's the most action-oriented quote on the page.
How does one quote describe shifting away from engaged journalism?
It describes a personal transition from being an engaged journalist to becoming what the speaker calls a disengaged novelist. The shift is framed as a change in relationship to the world, not just a career move.
Is there a quote connecting engagement to a broader idea like America?
Yes, one speaker says much of their work stays engaged with the idea of America itself, treating the country as an ongoing subject rather than a fixed topic. It's a more abstract use of the word than the others.
Do all these quotes use 'engaged' the same way?
No, the word shifts between romantic engagement, civic participation, and creative or intellectual involvement across the four quotes. That range is really the point of grouping them together.
A journalist describes leaving engaged reporting behind to become a disengaged novelist instead, and another ties engagement to grappling with America itself.
