Famous Quotes & Sayings

Jim Calhoun

We've always treasured it and we still treasure it. If, after the game, we say it wasn't that important to us, we're lying to you. It's important to us. Is it the most important thing? No. But we'd like to be Big East champs.

Jose Gutierrez

Whenever my old girl would catch me with a new one, I'd tell her she was just a friend - but she was really a new honey. Lying just, I don't know. It seemed like the nicer way to go.

Jim Butler

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

William C. Bryant

Lo! while we are gazing, in swifter haste Stream down the snows, till the air is white, As, myriads by myriads madly chased, They fling themselves from their shadowy height. The fair, frail creatures of middle sky, What speed they make, with their grave so nigh; Flake after flake, To lie in the dark and silent lake!

Arthur Murphy

The families of Aboriginals who have died in custody in NSW will suffer again because of these white lies.

Arthur Holly Compton

Faith gives the courage to live and do. Scientists, with their disciplined thinking, like others, need a basis for the good life, for aspiration, for courage to do great deeds. They need a faith to live by. The hope of the world lies in those who have such faith and who use the methods of science to make their visions become real. Visions and hope and faith are not part of science. They are beyond the nature that science knows. Of such is the religion that gives meaning to life.

John Powell

You just don't make decisions about what you're going to be like when you are old. I know that I am making that decision right now. Every time we perceive ourselves, others, life, the world and God in a certain way, we are deepening the habits that will take over in old age. Every time I act on the insights that I am getting now I am deciding my future and choosing to be a kindly or cynical old man. Our yesterdays lie heavily upon our todays and our todays will lie heavily upon our tomorrows.

William Shakespeare

They whose guilt within their bosom lies, imagine every eye beholds their blame.

William Shakespeare

This is the third time; I hope good luck lies in odd numbers. Away; go. They say there is divinity in odd numbers, either in nativity, chance, or death.

Alan Watts

We identify in our exerience a differentiation between what we do and what happens to us.

Crispin Glover

But there's a difference between having artistic interests and being psychotic. That's more than a fine line of differentiation, and I do see that a bit too much.

Deepak Chopra

Differentiation is how ONE becomes many while remaining ONE. Differentiation is not separation.

Stephen Jay Gould

I contend that the continued racial classification of Homo sapiens represents an outmoded approach to the general problem of differentiation within a species. In other words, I reject a racial classification of humans for the same reasons that I prefer not to divide into subspecies the prodigiously variable West Indian land snails that form the subject of my own research.

Swami Vivekananda

Differentiation is in name and form only.

Herbert Read

Progress is measured by the degree of differentiation within a society.

Maya Lin

We were unusually brought up; there was no gender differentiation. I was never thought of as any less than my brother.

Jeffrey Pfeffer

Typical pay increases are not enough to motivate employees, but they are enough to irritate them. … Even when companies create seemingly significant pay differentiation between low and high performers, the actual cash increase is insufficient to sustain performance – or it drives the wrong behaviors. … Effective management is a system, not a pay plan. The mistake is that companies try to solve all their problems with pay.

Gottfried Leibniz

..This is why the ultimate reason of things must lie in a necessary substance, in which the differentiation of the changes only exists eminently as in their source; and this is what we call God.
