3 December 2020 Duane Chapman You can’t be afraid to put out a fire if you’re a fireman. You can’t be afraid to be a police officer and carry a gun if you’re afraid to get up and go out there. So you’ve got to put that fear to the side and go out in faith to overcome that.
3 December 2020 Walter Pater In a sense it might even be said that our failure is to form habits: for, after all, habit is relative to a stereotyped world, and meantime it is only the roughness of the eye that makes two persons, things, situations, seem alike.
3 December 2020 Barbara Corcoran If I could set a world record, it would be that I have 150 business partners, all with thriving businesses of their own that started with nothing and I made the difference to make them all billionaires.
3 December 2020 Jill Scott I think every individual has his or her own power, and it’s a matter of working, taking time and defining what that power is.
3 December 2020 Abigail Adams I am more and more convinced that man is a dangerous creature and that power, whether vested in many or a few, is ever grasping, and like the grave, cries, ‘Give, give.’
3 December 2020 Daniel Radcliffe I met Elijah Wood once, I met Peter Jackson, I met Orlando Bloom, and they’re all really cool.
3 December 2020 Thomas John Watson, Sr. If you want to increase your success rate, double your failure rate.
3 December 2020 Patricia Ireland I come from a Christian faith. I am not going to give you insight into my particular beliefs.
3 December 2020 Andrew Carnegie Do your duty and a little more and the future will take care of itself.
3 December 2020 Jiddu Krishnamurti We all want to be famous people, and the moment we want to be something we are no longer free.
3 December 2020 Ariel Dorfman We can live with lots of things, but we can’t live without imagination, we can’t live without hope.
3 December 2020 Nicole Scherzinger Although religion was around me my whole life I never felt it was forced upon me. It is my centring, my grounding, the soul of me. I feel I’m nothing without it.
3 December 2020 John O. Brennan As a former career intelligence professional, I have a profound appreciation for the value of intelligence. Intelligence disrupts terrorist plots and thwarts attacks. Intelligence saves lives.
3 December 2020 John Locke Our incomes are like our shoes if too small, they gall and pinch us but if too large, they cause us to stumble and to trip.
3 December 2020 Jeanne Tripplehorn It was really important in my relationship with James Caan that I understood the relationship between the family and the father.
3 December 2020 Barry Zito Meyer and I have a bit in common because we’re both left-handed. I think it’s great that he seeks out that advice because he’s not too cool or too uncomfortable to ask for it.
3 December 2020 Rashida Jones In high school, I was on the youth advisory council for the Mayor’s Office of Los Angeles, and that was kind of my first experience in the bureaucratic system. We tried to get things done, and nobody was really interested in getting anything done.
3 December 2020 Melanie Chisholm I feel there should have been some recognition of the Spice Girls at this year’s 25th anniversary. We flew the flag for Britain around the globe in the 1990s and we achieved a hell of a lot.
3 December 2020 Charles Kettering A person must have a certain amount of intelligent ignorance to get anywhere.
3 December 2020 Fred Upton Without international participation, jobs and emissions will simply shift overseas to countries that require few, if any, environmental protections, harming the global environment as well as the U.S. economy.
3 December 2020 Bryan White One time when somebody showed up in a wedding dress, but I never knew if it was a joke, or she was serious. She asked me to marry her. She was serious. It was pretty funny.
3 December 2020 Arlen Specter If we had pursued what President Nixon declared in 1970 as the war on cancer, we would have cured many strains. I think Jack Kemp would be alive today. And that research has saved or prolonged many lives, including mine.
3 December 2020 Jonathan Frid To me, horror is when I see somebody lying. I mean a person I know. A friend. And he’s telling me something that I accept. And then suddenly, as he or she is telling it, there’s something that gives them away. They’re not telling me the truth.
3 December 2020 Thomas More What though youth gave love and roses, Age still leaves us friends and wine.
3 December 2020 James Nasmyth But my most favourite pursuit, after my daily exertions at the Foundry, was Astronomy. There were frequently clear nights when the glorious objects in the Heavens were seen in most attractive beauty and brilliancy.
3 December 2020 Margaret Mead A small group of thoughtful people could change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
