There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.
Our business is about technology, yes. But it's also about operations and customer relationships.
Michael Dell
The unpleasant and unacceptable face of capitalism.
Edward Heath
Mere longevity is a good thing for those who watch Life from the side lines. For those who play the game, an hour may be a year, a single day's work an achievement for eternity.
Gabriel Heatter
If you were happy every day of your life you wouldn't be a human being, you'd be a game show host.
The world of learning is so broad, and the human soul is so limited in power!
Maria Mitchell
More power than all the success slogans ever penned by human hand is the realization for every man that he has but one boss. That boss is the man -- he -- himself.
We got off at the next exit, quietly, and, switching drivers, we walked in front of the car. We met and I held him, my hands balled into tight fists around his shoulders, and he wrapped his short arms around me and squeezed tight, so that I felt the heaves of his chest as we realized over and over again that we were still alive. I realized it in waves and we held on to each other crying and I thought, 'God we must look so lame,' but it doesn't matter when you have just now realized, all the time later, that you are still alive.
John Green
There is good news tonight.
I grew up in Baltimore. And yes, I am a big sports fan, especially when it comes to my local teams.
Josh Charles
It doesn't matter what we do until we accept ourselves. Once we accept ourselves, it doesn't matter what we do.
Charly Heavenrich
Vibrators. I think they are great. They keep you out of stupid sex. I'd pitch them to anybody.
Anne Heche
In the court of the movie Owner, none criticized, none doubted. And none dared speak of art. In the Owner's mind art was a synonym for bankruptcy. The movie Owners are the only troupe in the history of entertainment that has never been seduced by the adventure of the entertainment world.
Ben Hecht
Now where people are - at least the people I talk to - they are focused on issues of trust. Accountability also comes up, to make sure that this doesn't happen again.
William P. Leahy
Hollywood held this double lure for me, tremendous sums of money for work that required no more effort than a game of pinochle.
If we have no respect for our viewers, then how can we have any respect for ourselves and what we do?
Christiane Amanpour
[The decay of Logic results from an] untroubled assumption that the particular is real and the universal is not.
C.S. Lewis
I know that a man who shows me his wealth is like the beggar who shows me his poverty; they are both looking for alms from me, the rich man for the alms of my envy, the poor man for the alms of my guilt.
I studied Japanese language and culture in college and graduate school, and afterward went to work in Tokyo, where I met a young man whose father was a famous businessman and whose mother was a geisha.
Arthur Golden
When you overpay small people you frighten them. They know that their merits or activities entitle them to no such sums as they are receiving. As a result their boss soars out of economic into magic significance. He becomes a source of blessings rather than wages. Criticism is sacrilege, doubt is heresy.
In moderating, not satisfying desires, lies peace.
Much more frequent in Hollywood than the emergence of Cinderella is her sudden vanishing. At our party, even in those glowing days, the clock was always striking twelve for someone at the height of greatness; and there was never a prince to fetch her back to the happy scene.
Trying to determine what is going on in the world by reading newspapers is like trying to tell the time by watching the second hand of a clock.
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is a time to honor the greatest champion of racial equality who taught a nation - through compassion and courage - about democracy, nonviolence and racial justice.
Mark Pryor
I discovered early in my movie work that a movie is never any better than the stupidest man connected with it. There are times when this distinction may be given to the writer or director. Most often it belongs to the producer.
The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done.
Jean Piaget
Movies are one of the bad habits that corrupted our century. Of their many sins, I offer as the worst their effect on the intellectual side of the nation. It is chiefly from that viewpoint I write of them -- as an eruption of trash that has lamed the American mind and retarded Americans from becoming a cultured people.
I have four strikes against me. I'm black, I'm short, I'm intelligent, and I have a medical condition.
Gary Coleman
If you load responsibility on a man unworthy of it he will always betray himself.
August Heckscher
The government should set a goal for a clean environment but not mandate how that goal should be implemented.
Dixie Lee Ray
Dreaming is an act of pure imagination, attesting in all men a creative power, which, if it were available in waking, would make every man a Dante or Shakespeare.
Francis Herbert Hedge
I got a gymnastics scholarship to college, fell in love with my true love of my whole life - who I'm married to now - and he was a virgin too. It was very romantic.
Victoria Jackson
Talent is a faculty that is highly developed, but genius commands all the faculties.
...the proliferation of luminous fungi or iridescent crystals in deep caves where the torchlessly improvident hero needs to see is one of the most obvious intrusions of narrative causality into the physical universe.
Terry Pratchett
What we need most, is not so much to realize the ideal as to idealize the real.
I never saw, heard, nor read, that the clergy were beloved in any nation where Christianity was the religion of the country. Nothing can render them popular, but some degree of persecution.
Jonathan Swift
We in science are spoiled by the success of mathematics. Mathematics is the study of problems so simple that they have good solutions.
Whitfield Diffie
I didn't know folk music growing up, no. It's something I've come to study, really, because I think there's so much to learn from traditional music in the sense of the way music began as a way of communication, the traveling storyteller, the bard, the minstrels.
P. J. Harvey
Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
As if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. Since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely.
Cassandra Clare
Tessa leaned forward and caught at his hand, pressing it between her own. The touch was like white fire through his veins: he could not feel her skin, only the cloth of the gloves, and yet it did not matter. How you have kindled me, heap of ashes that I am, into fire. He had wondered once why love was always phrased in terms of burning: the conflagration in his own veins, now, gave the answer. You are good, Will, she said. There is no one better placed than I am to be able to say with perfect confidence how good you really are.
