Bertrand Russel

What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.

Universities and corporations lose hours of valuable information each day because it is too big a hassle and too expensive to capture that knowledge as it is exchanged. These large organizations are now realizing how the secure sharing of online presentations can help boost expertise, reduce travel and other costs, and recapture lost productivity. With EX Server software, that information is just a click away. Our enterprise customers tell us they are realizing a competitive advantage as they capture, process and access their most important asset -- organizational knowledge. EX Server software further improves their communication across division, campus or geographical boundaries for these distributed, sometimes global, organizations.

Ben Stein

Wow, bad news. Mr. Obama now hates Israel because the Israelis want to build 1,600 apartments in their own capital city, Jerusalem. Russia hates Israel, too. So do the Europeans. So does Ban Ki-moon, a Korean who is secretary-general of the UN.

Suzanne Fields

Many of the Europeans who want Israel to go away don't even know why they do. Nearly a third of those interviewed concede they have no idea what the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is all about. It's enough to know that Israelis are Jews.

We remain positive based on economic activity and E&P spending; we're also positive on 2007 but see some risk to E&P spending given the potential squeeze on returns (with) a possible moderation in commodity prices in '07. Visibility remains too good to worry too early, however.

Benjamin Reitzes

A lot of marketing we're doing is promoting Red Scare without the Second City name or the Denver Center name.

When we were down 11 at halftime, I wasn't happy; but I thought we still had a shot. We took them out of their rhythm in the second half and that was the difference.

Jermaine Spencer

When we went in the locker room, we said we weren't pushing. We weren't getting as hard after them as we should. In the second half, we brought the fight to them. Instead of backing down and letting them do what they want to do, we made them step up and play -- play defense and make tougher shots.

Ian Shepherdson

We remain of the view that the Fed's near-term objective is simply to support the stock market until consumer and business sentiment improves,

Karen Wagner

When we got to talking about this, I knew in my heart it could be done. This community has never let us down when there is something as important as air service. We've come through in all sorts of circumstances, and this Essential Air Service is just the last of those little hurdles we've had to overcome.

Jonathan Eunice

Web-services technology is complicated stuff. You've got all sorts of standards governing security , reliability, and message bundling, and there are 30 or 40 major specifications and standards involved as well as a couple hundred slightly more minor ones. In a considerable number of cases, you will have to learn many of these dialects and it's a bewildering array to learn indeed.

Chuck D.

We're exploring all sorts of options for waste. There's so much of it.

The mobile Web, location-based services, inexpensive and pervasive mobile apps, and new sorts of opportunities to access cars, bikes, tools, talent, and more from our neighbors and colleagues will propel peer-to-peer access services into market.

Mohsin Hamid

Like many kids, I used to pretend all sorts of things. I would climb into a tree and imagine that I was on an island, that the grass below we was an ocean, that the leaves were the fins of sharks. Perhaps unlike many people, I never really stopped. I still have a childlike predisposition to fantasise and share my fantasies.

Buzz Hargrove

What they're saying to us is that they are selling our jobs out to the market. We're not going to take that. Sunday or early Monday we will likely tell them that we will strike them.

Mark Everson

We're moving aggressively to reduce the tax gap, ... But no one should think we can totally eliminate the gap. That would take Draconian measures and make the government too intrusive. We have to strike the right balance.

James Comey

We face cyber threats from state-sponsored hackers, hackers for hire, global cyber syndicates, and terrorists. They seek our state secrets, our trade secrets, our technology, and our ideas - things of incredible value to all of us. They seek to strike our critical infrastructure and to harm our economy.

Peter Callero

We're pleased we won't have to strike on Wednesday.

Karen Woodall

Unless some crisis triggers action, it usually takes us years to get something passed. And we can only do one thing at a time because we're not allowed to go after things comprehensively. We think it will be helpful to have a dedicated group of legislators who are sitting down and looking at issues in a more intense, concentrated way.

Khalid Malik

There is no question that more can be done to mend the gap that so often triggers social unrest when economic growth on a national scale leaves the poor and disadvantaged behind.

Lech Walesa

Communism in Cuba will collapse sooner or later because you can't control the free flow of information. Communism prevents organizations from developing by stopping the flow of information. The system is based on police and listening devices and triggers the worst characteristics in humans.

Brian Eno

Art is not an object, but a trigger for experience.

Deepak Chopra

Every intention is a trigger for transformation.

Ernie Accorsi

He has had a physical with us. That's all that's taken place. If this triggers another round of hysteria, it will be inaccurate just like the last round. Nothing has happened in the negotiations. Obviously, you're not even going to think about a player without a physical examination. Now we have that.

David Krings

Sure, stored procedures and triggers and what else is nice and gives a tremendous performance and usability boost, but it comes at a price that easy switching is not possible.

J. M. Roberts

We've always said this about Alaska: nasty-ass weather, warm people. I never experienced 32 below before. ... My Irish blood has been thinned out by years of living in California.

Billy Graham

We've always needed God from the very beginning of this nation but today we need Him especially. We're facing a new kind of enemy. We're involved in a new kind of warfare and we need the help of the Spirit of God. The Bible's words are our hope. . . .

Jarvis Cocker

When I was in Pulp, I actively did more TV stuff because that was during the Great Britpop Wars, and it seemed important to prove that indie people could speak. That war doesn't exist anymore.

Rick Foster

Tom Scully sent an e-mail directing that we not respond to these requests and warning that the consequences of insubordination were extremely severe, ... I took that to mean that if I sent the responses, they would go ahead and fire me.

To Mr. Seward: It is my desire that, in case Maximillian will surrender, he be sent here a prisoner of war, but that in the event of his continuing the war, or refusing to surrender, then he be shot.

Martin Rees

To most people in the U.K., indeed throughout Western Europe, space exploration is primarily perceived as 'what NASA does'. This perception is - in many respects - a valid one.

Bill Brennan

We remain concerned for the health of the public, and again urge people to heed the signs the city posted warning them to stay out of waters that may be contaminated.

John Cohen

We're going to get a little break here and a slow warming trend.

Cindy Sheehan

We're going to do what we do all the time: gather together in peace. We're going to call for George Bush and the neo-cons not to invade Iran. That would be a mistake even worse than Iraq. Our children are sitting ducks in the Middle East; the people of Iran and Iraq would be sitting ducks. And I'm not even sure that this invasion won't lead to World War III. So it's something that we have to stop before it starts.
