Famous Quotes & Sayings

Charles Spurgeon

If you simply take the name of Christ upon you and call yourself His servant, yet do not obey Him, but follow your own whim, or your own hereditary prejudice, or the custom of some erroneous church-you are no servant of Christ. If you really are a servant of Christ, your first duty is to obey Him.

Dennis Prager

More people have done good in the name of God than any other way

Denis Johnson

I knew every raindrop by its name.

Debra Messing

I am a fan of all of the same shows that David just listed. And then I also have a weird obsession with Court TV, which is now truTV - I don't know if you know that. Yeah they changed names. I don't know why they did that but they did. It was a little disconcerting to me at first. But I've gotten over it.

Dieter Rams

I am troubled by the devaluing of the word 'design’. I find myself now being somewhat embarrassed to be called a designer. In fact I prefer the German term, Gestalt-Ingenieur. Apple and Vitsoe are relatively lone voices treating the discipline of design seriously in all corners of their businesses. They understand that design is not simply an adjective to place in front of a product’s name to somehow artificially enhance its value. Ever fewer people appear to understand that design is a serious profession; and for our future welfare we need more companies to take that profession seriously.

Eduard Buchner

If fruit juices or sugar solutions are left to stand in the open air, they show after a few days the processes which are covered by the name of fermentation phenomena.

Indeed there's a woundy luck in names.

Name and date split in soft slate a few months obliterate. 166

The name Van Halen, the family legacy, is going to go on long after I'm gone.

Charles Olson

You can read everybody. It's not even interesting to tell the truth because to some extent it's false.

Diane Sawyer

The interesting thing is always to see if you can find a fact that will change your mind about something, to test and see if you can.

Diane Kruger

I don't have to work just to work anymore. More interesting parts come my way, so I can afford to say, 'I don't want to make that.'

Eleanor Roosevelt

Nothing alive can stand still, it goes forward or back. Life is interesting only as long as it is a process of growth; or, to put it another way, we can only grow as long as we are interested.

Eleanor Roosevelt

I found that almost everyone had something interesting to contribute to my education.

Edvard Munch

Certainly a chair can be just as interesting as a human being. But first the chair must be perceived by a human being... You should not paint the chair, but only what someone has felt about it.

Earl Nightingale

That's the secret: be interesting. If you can't be interesting, shut up. There's nothing wrong with silence.

Elizabeth Bowen

Experience isn't interesting until it begins to repeat itself. In fact, till it does that, it hardly is experience.

Eliot Spitzer

Why does it have to be politics? Is there a dynamism to that world and a theoretical capacity to do things that draws many talented people? Absolutely. Are there other ways to be involved and lead an interesting life? Of course.

John Podhoretz

One strange quality of writing about political campaigns is that it's a little like writing about a baseball game inning by inning. We presume we can say something about the final result from the state of play a third of the way through. You can when a game is a colossal blowout, but you can't when it's close.

Charles Kennedy

I did not dwell on the issue of Europe during either the 2001 or the 2005 campaigns - despite it being a pivotal personal concern and despite seeing it as something of a litmus test for liberal democracy.

Ed Rendell

I have said consistently both in my papers and in my speeches - which you heard in the primary campaign - that I will continue to phase out the Capital Stock and Franchise tax.

Jim Bradley

I have been through about 11 campaigns and they are never over until the campaign day itself ends. As people focus on issues, not on the horse race, not on polls, not on sidebar issues, but as they focus on issues that people care about in the country it makes a difference.

Bradley A. Smith

With super PACs, we've seen voter turnout go up; interest in elections rise; and the number of competitive races increase. The campaigns of 2010 and 2012 have been more issue-oriented than their predecessors, not less.

Paul Marciano

The campaigns and the models in them create the fantasy around the brand. It has always been about having strong images. Without that, we could not have gone into all the categories we did. It really has been the foundation from where the house of Guess was built.

Beau Willimon

I was always a writer - working on campaigns was never a profession for me. It was something I did on the side, really, so the trajectory hasn't been a political operative who likes to dabble in writing and finds himself into stumbling on film and TV - that was always my goal.

Carine Roitfeld

Most makeup campaigns are not in black and white.

Bob Beauprez

During the campaign for re-election, Barack Obama at least made vague references to a willingness to accept $3 trillion of reduced spending in exchange for a $1 trillion dollar tax increase.
