Charisma is the numinous aura around a narcissistic personality. It flows outward from a simplicity or unity of being and a composure and controlled vitality. There is gracious accommodation, yet commanding impersonality. Charisma is the radiance produced by the interaction of male and female elements in a gifted personality.

When we have an opportunity to play the larger schools, they see the difference is just not there. Basketball is a home-and-road sport and, traditionally, the big schools have always played at home.

We're just not playing on all cylinders. We're misfiring here and there, with moments of brilliance and moments where we're just not good. But we've got a tough game (today).

James Loney

When we were released I was sure I could jump right back into ordinary life and that's what I wanted the most, but I'm afraid no such luck. When I can get through an ordinary day without shaking legs and a pounding heart, I think that will be a sign that I can start to tell my story.

Spirituality doesn’t exist on another level different from ordinary life.

James Cameron

Dennis Perry

We're feeling shock and dismay. For her to capitulate like this -- that's not the Pam Goldsmith-Jones that I knew. I can only assume that she's under unbelievable pressure from a far too powerful provincial government.

Rod Blagojevich

We're just not going to sit back and continue to allow the big, powerful pharmaceutical industry to price gouge the senior citizens and working people of our state. People should be able to afford the medicine they need and they should be able to get the best price they can for it.

Abby Ottenhoff

We respect the pharmacists' rights to hold personal, moral, religious beliefs, but they can't allow those beliefs to get in the way of serving their customers.

Kay Hagan

Religious institutions should have religious freedom on this issue. No church or minister should ever have to conduct a marriage that is inconsistent with their religious beliefs. But I think as a civil institution, this issue's time has come and we need to move forward.

Eric Rothschild

We're fighting for the 1st Amendment, the separation of church and state, and the integrity of schools. This trial should decide whether a school board can impose its religious views on other students.

Alan Alda

I dont see we can have a separation of church and state in this government if you have to pass a religious test to get in this government. And I want to warn everyone in the press and all the voters out there: if you demand expressions of religious faith from politicians, you are just begging to be lied to. They wont all lie to you but a lot of them will. And itll be the easiest lie they ever had to tell to get your votes. So every day till the end of this campaign, Ill answer any question anyone has on government, but if you have a question on religion, please, go to church.

Al Purdy

I'm not religious in any formal sense, not in any God sense.

I believe in the support of the public school as one of the cornerstones of American liberty. I believe in the right of every parent to choose whether his child shall be educated in the public school or in a religious school supported by those of his own faith.

Al Smith

I can think of no greater disaster to this country than to have the voters of it divide upon religious lines.

Jonathan Meyers

Richard Kaplan

We're standing out there for four days, and we're observing some runs that never came and some that were 20 to 50 minutes late, ... That is clearly unacceptable.

Greg Hawk

We're going to score some runs this year, you can count on that. Timmy is a big key to our club, but we have a really potent offense overall so we'll be quite all right. We've got a good freshman core and the big hitters to drive them home so I like our chances. We are going to compete for one the top spots in our league and before this year is over, they'll know the names of these guys.

Tony Oliva

We're going to have a guy hit 30 home runs this year.

Marvin Avery

We're going to do what we always do. We'll play smart on defense. They're a very athletic team, but everyone knows Division 3 North runs through Lynn Tech.

Tim Worrell

What a game -- we should win that game. Three runs in the ninth, and the starting pitching has been good. We just didn't get it done, and almost every pitch they hit was right down the middle.

David Yalof

What history dictates is even relatively weak presidents have often gone for home runs with nominees,

Trevor Hohns

What he's done over here (in Pakistan) didn't count for too much. It was good for him to get over here and play some cricket basically and get some runs under the belt.

Jim Parker

What happens when (the machine) runs out, it puts itself out of service. We have to reset it,

Eugene Kennedy

The perception of the horizon is an earthbound event; all horizons disappear in space, and we are left shorn of the sweet roots that have held us to the earth, challenged to imagine what is truly present just before us, a unified and seemingly limitless universe.

Mark Helprin

In American military cemeteries all over the world, seemingly endless rows of whitened grave markers stand largely unvisited and in silence. The gardeners tend the lawns, one section at a time. Even at the famous sites, tourism is inconstant.

Michael Specter

Until the Nineteen-Eighties, when Deng Xiaoping designated the area as China's first special economic zone, Shenzhen had been a tiny fishing village. Suddenly, eleven million people appeared, seemingly out of nowhere; factories sprang up, often housed in hastily constructed tower blocks.

Mack Strong

Gary Wolf

Being a 911 operator means balancing seemingly contradictory skills. On one hand, operators have to be fanatically precise and well-organized. On the other, they must be able to establish rapport with panicky callers.

Emily Martin

The condition of sleep is profoundly contradictory. It is a precious good... but it is a good like none other, because to obtain it, one must seemingly give up the imperative to have it.

Dinaw Mengestu

Peoria is such a seemingly quintessential American city, and I had always wanted to draw on that in either my fiction or in nonfiction. The Midwest is also a landscape that I have always been infatuated with, perhaps because it's the first one I can truly remember.

Mo Ibrahim

Positive market incentives operating in the public interest are too few and far between, and are also up against a seemingly never-ending expansion of perverse incentives and lobbying.

Greg Evans

Nicotine withdrawal was very much like trying to s*** a melon. The pressure was remarkable! Seemingly an impossible task. I would break out into sweats, cough, curse, yell, and wake up periodically throughout the night from vicious nightmares. Three full weeks of endless torment without relief. The incommodiousness of it all.

Bryce Taylor

When it comes down to it, it seems like we are putting too much pressure on ourselves. As a shooter, you have to stay confident. It's all mental when it comes to our shooting.

Barry Russell

We're starting to find a way to win by finding a way to get on base however possible. Sometimes it seems like we find a way to try to lose and we need to overcome that.

Larry King

We're going to point her towards that race again, and we need to get a couple races in her - this seems like a good place to start.

Sean Kinney

We're going to go and play the songs one more time. It seems like the right time, so I figure we'll go out and play a few gigs and see where it goes. I think we might just show up in assorted places in the U.S. in the next few months without much notice and play some clubs and little theaters, and then go to Europe and play these festival gigs. Beyond that, we don't know at this point.

Nicole Piggott

We're going to do what we've been doing all year. It seems to be working fine.

Keegan Bradley

Seems like my iron play gets a little better every year. Which makes sense - I've been working hard on things with my teacher, Jim McLean.

Anthony Crescenzi

What we're seeing is an increase in the manufacturing sector, ... The manufacturing sector has been very weak for the last year and a half -- since the Asian (financial) crisis. Now, that sector seems to be recovering.

Lisa Willis

When we do our pre-game talk, we talk about certain people not liking pressure. But it seems like none of their players likes pressure. We tried to jump on that, totally, because that got our defense going. And we knew that if we kept pounding them and pounding them ? not just stealing the ball but just getting stops ? that would frustrate them.

Richard Wiseman

What his research seems to be saying is that women are the laughers and men get the laughs.

Adam Ereli

We've asked the government of Libya to identify the source of the interference and resolve the problem. And we'll be continuing to investigate it.

Carl Safina

When I was in high school in the early 1970s, we knew we were running out of oil; we knew that easy sources were being capped; we knew that diversifying would be much better; we knew that there were terrible dictators and horrible governments that we were enriching who hated us. We knew all that and we did really nothing.

Amy Fisher

When I was a child, I played in trees a lot, ... I'm very attached to trees and trees being kind of strong and providing a source of comfort and cleaning the air and being homes for animals.

Kenneth Fisher

Windmills and solar cells are carbon-free sources of electricity. But they are costly. If you've been investing in those, give it up. That game is effectively over.

Scott Bosse

When we had abundant cheap power there is less incentive to develop alternative sources of power. Now that we face scarce electricity supplies and much higher prices, that is changing.

Jim Steets

When we first got these findings we were scratching our heads because it does raise questions about what the source (of the leak) really is.

Winston Damarillo

We wrapped all these technologies into a common platform. We took all the open source pieces, version-managed them, tested them and integrated them. Then we wrote additional technologies, such as the deployment kernel and a management console, to complete the picture.

Fadel Gheit

What he's saying makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately, the source of the comment is going to send jitters in the market.

Hayan Saad

What? He is the source of our troubles.

Rhea Perlman

When I was a kid, I loved having a book in my hand. I still do. I wasn't a fast reader, but I was a steady reader. I read all of The Bobbsey Twins, Nancy Drew, and Cherry Ames books.

Phil Jackson

We remind our players that this is something that was a special night in a heated situation but it's not going to be a steady diet for us. The onus on Kobe is to stay inside the team offense. The onus on the players is to pick it up a little bit better.

Gavin Stevens

We're making incremental, steady improvement. We're struggling to find consistency in our play. This is a team that's been a little rocky, which is a sign of chemistry coming together.

Fred Hassan

We remain determined to become a high-performance competitor for the long term -- and over the past several quarters we have made steady progress toward that goal.

Brett Gallagher

We're going to have to see better news and slow steady incremental gains over a prolonged period of time in order to build the market.

Craig Finn

We feel that Vagrant will allow us to bring our music to even more people, while also understanding the things that make the band special to The Hold Steady fans, and to the band members themselves.

Rick Comley

We're getting steady goaltending and we've grown up as a team. We're battle-tested.

Sam Tortorello

We're getting better every weekend but at the same time we're up and down. In order to win the Big Ten, we're going to have to steady out and play at our top level all the time to accomplish all our goals we want to this year.

Fred Matua

We're going to take what they're saying and just go with it. We believe that we're the best. They believe that they're the best. What we say over here is, 'The fourth shall set us free. The truth will be told.' Let's go play.

Jeb Bush

We're going to prosecute now that the law has been changed, ... We're going to prosecute a case worker who, for whatever reason, as an investigator did not tell the truth and put the child potentially in harm's way by that action.

Wayne Stroupe

We're going to go where the truth takes us.

Michael Leunig

Hugo Chavez

What a great truth and how good it is that in Mar del Plata President Kirchner has come to say it to millions: the Washington consensus is broken; we are looking for a new model,

Walt Whitman

What a devil art thou, Poverty! How many desires -- how many aspirations after goodness and truth -- how many noble thoughts, loving wishes toward our fellows, beautiful imaginings thou hast crushed under thy heel, without remorse or pause!

Chris Crutcher

'Whale Talk' is a tough book, but it is also a compassionate book about telling the truth and about redemption. I didn't draw the tough parts out of thin air; they are stories handed to me by people in pain.

Jean Marais

What has always attracted me in life is poetry. Any genre can have poetry. For me, poetry contains truth.

Jim Butler

What happens now is that the reckoning begins. Two decades of concealing the truth and lying are coming to an end.
