3 December 2020 Nigel Farage It’s about businesses nervous about taking on school leavers because of a mass of red tape. It’s about health and safety regulations and green fines.
3 December 2020 Joshua Lederberg I certainly saw science as a kind of calling, and one with as much legitimacy as a religious calling.
3 December 2020 Louis Aragon Fear of error which everything recalls to me at every moment of the flight of my ideas, this mania for control, makes men prefer reason’s imagination to the imagination of the senses. And yet it is always the imagination alone which is at work.
3 December 2020 Milton Friedman If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years there’d be a shortage of sand.
3 December 2020 Thomas Reid And, if we have any evidence that the wisdom which formed the plan is in the man, we have the very same evidence, that the power which executed it is in him also.
3 December 2020 Thomas Sowell Wishful thinking is not idealism. It is self-indulgence at best and self-exaltation at worst. In either case, it is usually at the expense of others. In other words, it is the opposite of idealism.
3 December 2020 Russ Feingold I was one of 14 senators to vote against the Defense of Marriage Act. I thought it was a harsh and unnecessary thing to do to people across this country who care enough about each other to want to be married.
3 December 2020 Virginia Foxx China’s idea of fair trade is government subsidies of its textile and apparel exports to the United States, currency manipulation, and forgiveness of loans by its government banks.

3 December 2020 Mick Cornett We’ve seen the kind of social impact a professional sports team has on a city. A team brings high-profile role models into your community who are healthy and they’re great images for the city to gravitate toward, especially for kids.
3 December 2020 Will Estes I’ve always been an animal lover. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I think that is what helped me get the role on ‘Lassie’, I was comfortable around the dog, where many of the kids were afraid or intimidated by Lassie.
3 December 2020 Michael Servetus Man becomes weak or ill by accident as a consequence of the lack of resources. Even the most severally ill patients must be treated with the aim of restoring their health.

3 December 2020 Ninon de L'Enclos A man is given the choice between loving women and understanding them.
3 December 2020 Donna Shalala But for me, it is when a student has died. I find the death of a young person the most difficult and painful of times. To explain it to other young people, to see a bright future snuffed out, is just awful. I am haunted by those deaths.
3 December 2020 Robert Jackson Freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter mush. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order.

3 December 2020 Madeleine Albright I have said this many times, that there seems to be enough room in the world for mediocre men, but not for mediocre women, and we really have to work very, very hard.
3 December 2020 Rowan Atkinson Funny things tend not to happen to me. I am not a natural comic. I need to think about things a lot before I can be even remotely amusing.
3 December 2020 Evita Peron I demanded more rights for women because I know what women had to put up with.
3 December 2020 Ian Hamilton Finlay But I can only write what the muse allows me to write. I cannot choose, I can only do what I am given, and I feel pleased when I feel close to concrete poetry – still.
