119209. We were born to die and we die to live. As seedlings of God, we barely blossom on earth; we fully flower in heaven. – Russell M. Nelson

119219. The good news about computers is that they do what you tell them to do. The bad news is that they do what you tell them to do. – Ted Nelson
119220. The four walls of paper are like a prison because every idea wants to spring out in all directions – everything is connected with everything else, sometimes more than others. – Ted Nelson
119221. So, what you can do in Microsoft Word is what Bill Gates has decided. What you can do in Oracle Database is what Larry Ellison and his crew have decided. – Ted Nelson
119222. So, the point was to be able to have a medium that would record all the connections and all the structures and all the thoughts that paper could not. Since the computer could hold any structure in any form, this was the way to go. – Ted Nelson
119223. So, that notion of hypertext seemed to me immediately obvious because footnotes were already the ideas wriggling, struggling to get free, like a cat trying to get out of your arms. – Ted Nelson

119229. Computers are hierarchical. We have a desktop and hierarchical files which have to mean everything. – Ted Nelson
119230. They were saying computers deal with numbers. This was absolutely nonsense. Computers deal with arbitrary information of any kind. – Ted Nelson
119231. What we now call the browser is whatever defines the web. What fits in the browser is the World Wide Web and a number of trivial standards to handle that so that the content comes. – Ted Nelson
119232. So in my uncertainty, I went to graduate school and there it all happened. – Ted Nelson
119233. The point is that these decisions they’ve made are partly for your convenience and partly for theirs and partly out of stereotypes that they carry with them from the conventions of the computer field. – Ted Nelson

119255. I talk to Simon, I write to him. I never used to write a diary. But now I’m writing a diary to him. I think it’s not just me, but lots of others, family and friends, can still feel him around. – Petra Nemcova
119256. There are lots of things which I would love to tell him, but in some way, I also feel that I lost the person closest to me. And I got a second chance to live. So in a way I feel that I live for both of us… and I will do my best. – Petra Nemcova

119265. It is a Modern day, and these times need Modern solutions to Modern problems. – Corin Nemec
119266. Art is about expressing the true nature of the human spirit in whatever way one wishes to express it. If it is honest, it is beautiful. If it is not honest, it is obvious. – Corin Nemec

119278. I have not thought too much about the psychology or life of the character Jonas in some time. – Corin Nemec

119280. I had the benefit of experiencing a hundred times more than the average kid. I don’t look back with regret at all. It was the best life ever. – Corin Nemec
119281. I got to do a whole slew of TV movies playing the bad guy, including an episode of Smallville. That would never have happened if I hadn’t done the Stand. – Corin Nemec
119282. I did private study for about a month, five days a week, six hours a day. I came to understand the character in ways that I never would’ve previous to that. I was so innocent in respect to ways of creating characters. – Corin Nemec
119283. I’d just gotten into Los Angeles from Texas, where I live, and the phone rang and it was the guy calling about the Willie Nelson video. I was totally excited about it. – Corin Nemec

119289. Once in awhile you have a thought, and you rhyme it. – Howard Nemerov
119290. Robert Frost had always said you mustn’t think of the last line first, or it’s only a fake poem, not a real one. I’m inclined to agree. – Howard Nemerov
119291. Shakespeare tells the same stories over and over in so many guises that it takes a long time before you notice. – Howard Nemerov
119292. The nice thing about the Bible is it doesn’t give you too many facts. Two an a half lines and it tells you the whole story and that leaves you a great deal of freedom to elaborate on how it might have happened. – Howard Nemerov

119310. I like all my children, even the squat and ugly ones. – Howard Nemerov
119311. I liked the kid who wrote me that he had to do a term paper on a modern poet and he was doing me because, though they say you have to read poems twice, he found he could handle mine in one try. – Howard Nemerov

119316. I would talk in iambic pentameter if it were easier. – Howard Nemerov
119317. I think there’s one thing which distinguishes our art – we don’t consider. We don’t think. We write a little verse because it comes to us. – Howard Nemerov
119318. Occasionally a student writer comes up with something really beautiful and moving, and you won’t know for years if it was an accident or the first burst of something wonderful. – Howard Nemerov
119319. I think there was a revolution in poetry, associated chiefly with Eliot and Pound; but maybe it is of the nature of revolutions or of the nature of history that their innovations should later come to look trivial or indistinguishable from technical tricks. – Howard Nemerov

119328. Love has its own time, its own season, and its own reasons from coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it or reason it into staying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. – Kent Nerburn
119329. Remember that you don’t choose love; love chooses you. All you really can do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life. Feel the way it fills you to overflowing then reach out and give it away. – Kent Nerburn

119355. The tree of knowledge is not the tree of life! And yet can we cast out of our spirits all the good or evil poured into them by so many learned generations? Ignorance cannot be learned. – Gerard De Nerval

119361. Typically what happens is, somebody drags an idea from the past that worked in an old set of logics that they try to apply to the new one. And it doesn’t work. – Michael Nesmith
119362. There’s a certain logic to systems, and that logic is fairly self-evident. It’s very straightforward, usually. It might take a little research, it might take a little bit of industry to prize it out, but it’s there to be seen. – Michael Nesmith
119363. The rock sitting on the shelf has potential because it can fall-it’s the same way with the Internet. It has this potential. It’s not really doing it yet, but it’s about to. – Michael Nesmith
119364. The only people who steal are thieves, and that’s a very small percentage of civilization. Most people want to have some way to make the economic transaction valid. They want to return the favor, if you will… return the benefit and reciprocate. – Michael Nesmith
119365. The Internet provides the access to resources, so it’s incumbent upon the people who control those resources to make sure that the economic engine stays intact. – Michael Nesmith
119366. There’s this notion that allows people to create their own collection of songs, so it rewrites what a song is. They may only want 10 seconds of something, or they may only want this particular song, or they want this group of songs. It becomes much more user-controlled. – Michael Nesmith
119367. There are more honest people and more good people than there are thieves and bad people. It’s just always been that way. – Michael Nesmith
119368. It’s what the Iraqi people are going through right now. They have encountered a victorious, hostile force-but, you know, there they still are. There their culture is, there their history is, they’re not going anywhere. – Michael Nesmith
119369. Some ways of using our thinking are really inspiring. There are people who use their thinking to race cars. People use their thinking to build rockets to the moon. It’s all just a use of your thinking. – Michael Nesmith
119370. People recognize intellectual property the same way they recognize real estate. People understand what property is. But it’s a new kind of property, and so the understanding uses new control surfaces. It uses a new way of defining the property. – Michael Nesmith
119371. Once the smoke of the market crash clears off, you know, the Internet will pick back up and go. Take a look at what’s happening to some of the big companies like eBay and Yahoo, the publicly traded stocks. You know, they’re all coming back up off the mat now. – Michael Nesmith
119372. Now, DVD can represent more income than the box office-and typically does. – Michael Nesmith

119374. Linear thinking typifies a highly developed industry. It starts to get these patterns built into it somehow. I’m not sure how that happens, but certainly you take a look at dinosaurs. – Michael Nesmith
119375. It’s important to be precise about words, because of the thought value of them-they frame and shape so much of the way we understand things. – Michael Nesmith
119376. It’s clear that people are going to download media files, and they’re going to talk to each other, and they’re going to exchange information and knowledge and so forth. So this system logic is basically what you bounce off of. – Michael Nesmith
119377. I’m not performing now. What I do now is listen to music all day long. Listening is very nourishing to me. I might go back to perform, I might make another record. I’ve got a record half finished. – Michael Nesmith
119378. I never feel like I have to hang on to the music. I don’t expect that the music will go away. Ideas are the only thing I can point to that are permanent and fixed. – Michael Nesmith
119379. I just finished a novel, and I’m back kind of noodling on the screenplays. Screenplays are tough. I am making music, I’m just not sure what kind of music it is or where it’s going. – Michael Nesmith
119380. I haven’t been out in the marketplace in a while. I’m thinking about going back into it. I’ve got some things set up over the next couple of months just to go and see. But I have no idea what the specific way to a solution is anymore. It’s mysterious to me. – Michael Nesmith
119381. I don’t quite know what a record is anymore. I don’t quite know how to describe it. Don’t know how to define it yet, so I’m just letting it gestate, and grow and see if maybe I’ll get a better sense of what a record is. – Michael Nesmith
119382. I coined a word the other day, but I forgot what it was. It was a good one, it came to me in a dream. – Michael Nesmith
119383. Buzzwords and cliches – those are stock in trade. There’s nothing wrong with them. – Michael Nesmith
119384. Interviews are usually a follow-up, like a press junket or a publicity junket, or something like that, and I’m not doing any of that right now. I don’t have any axes to grind. – Michael Nesmith
119385. Multimedia scares me off. – Michael Nesmith
119386. Unquestionably, it was going to be highly dangerous. Yet I felt it was quite natural to jump at the task. After all, if you don’t like action and excitement, you don’t go into police work. And, what the hell, I figured, nobody lives forever! – Eliot Ness

119388. Doubts raced through my mind as I considered the feasibility of enforcing a law which the majority of honest citizens didn’t seem to want. – Eliot Ness
119389. I don’t think you can rely on Iran. I don’t think you can rely on other radicals like the Taliban. They dispatched Al Qaida to bomb New York and Washington. What were they thinking? Were they that stupid? They weren’t stupid. There is an irrationality there, and there is madness in this method. – Benjamin Netanyahu
119390. Our policy is very simple. The Jewish state was set up to defend Jewish lives, and we always reserve the right to defend ourselves. – Benjamin Netanyahu

119445. I am just a plain Jew; I mean have no training. – Bebe Neuwirth

119449. If I’m not in shape, it feels like something is wrong. If I haven’t been able to get to class for a while or I’ve been sick, I don’t feel complete. It doesn’t feel like the electricity is making its connections. – Bebe Neuwirth

119454. You have to be aware. Like, I’m not going to do any downhill skiing. It looks like a whole lot of fun, but I’m not going to risk breaking a leg. I want to be dancing the way I’m dancing now for 30 more years. – Bebe Neuwirth
119455. True strength is delicate. – Louise Berliawsky Nevelson

119476. It’s a 360-degree sound experience. Like you’re in the middle of the band. A lot of people have the technology to play the format, so why not put it out there. It sounds great. – Aaron Neville
119477. I think things happened the way they did for a reason. – Aaron Neville
119478. Growing up my mother played Sarah Vaughan and Nat Cole in the house regularly. – Aaron Neville

119528. Well, he can’t be dumb, I mean, because he’s been president for four years and he’s president again, so you’re going to get caught out if you’re really bad, aren’t you? Unless millions and millions of Americans are dumb. – John Newcombe

119553. It’s getting harder and harder to differentiate between schizophrenics and people talking on a cell phone. It still brings me up short to walk by somebody who appears to be talking to themselves. – Bob Newhart

119565. I don’t have a stack of scripts. – Bob Newhart

119679. I want to make music that somehow connects to the things that I love in America music. – Joanna Newsom
119680. I wanted to write songs which I think is a different thing. I wanted to write music that is informed by folk music. The chord progressions are obvious references. – Joanna Newsom

119682. I would happy for someone to download my music. – Joanna Newsom

119684. It’s valid that the Strokes and the Pleased have been influenced by some of the same bands. But it’s invalid in the sense that we listen to the Strokes and try to sounds like them. I think that they are a good band. – Joanna Newsom

119692. I am producing sounds that people are not used to hearing from the harp. – Joanna Newsom
119693. I recorded harp first or singing first. I recorded it all together. Part of the reason is that I don’t know how to play the songs without also singing. I forget how they progress. I don’t think that any of them are verse, chorus, verse, and so on. They are not simple. – Joanna Newsom
119694. I am consciously trying not to make it sound Celtic or African. – Joanna Newsom

119699. I can’t play my songs on the smaller harp. I have a Celtic harp. I can’t do the key changes. – Joanna Newsom

119718. Yeah, my dream would be to work for 6 months and then have 6 months to play, just snowboarding, surfing, and going to cool places to listen and be alone and kinda chill out. – Marc Newson
119719. You know like it has its own personality, its own character. – Marc Newson
119720. If you can just be yourself, then you have to be original because there’s no one like you. – Marc Newson
119721. You know that’s history, that’s why some people say that my stuff is retro, but I don’t agree. – Marc Newson
119722. I think it’s really important to design things with a kind of personality. – Marc Newson
119723. You know some people say that you make watches or perfume bottles, it’s all different things. – Marc Newson
119724. I made some salt and pepper shakers a while back and waited three years for them to come. – Marc Newson
119725. And where I grew up in Australia, surfing was a part of culture. – Marc Newson
119726. But to me, to be original is to be yourself. – Marc Newson
119727. Design schools are good, I guess, sometimes I visit schools, but they are very very limiting. – Marc Newson

119732. I never buy magazines, I never even buy books. – Marc Newson
119733. I was much more interested in making things than in designing them. – Marc Newson
119734. I’d love to be approached to do ordinary things more. – Marc Newson

119740. Metallica is going to be one of those bands you look back on in the year 2008, that people will still listen to the way I still listen to Zeppelin and Sabbath albums. – Jason Newsted
119741. I’m busier than a busy person. People aren’t scared to play this raucous, harsh music over radio speakers, so I think it’s the perfect time to get in with some real serious, heavy bands. – Jason Newsted
119742. I ended up gettin’ a little Gibson amp and a bass, because of Gene Simmons of Kiss. Myself and three other kids would pretend to be Kiss – I liked Gene the best. – Jason Newsted
119743. It all has to do with art – writing, painting, things I’ve done for a long time but just never had enough time to pursue. I have poetry – things that are designed for songs, but they’re always poems first. – Jason Newsted
119744. All I want you to do is rock. That’ll be forever, man. – Jason Newsted

119746. I like photographing the people I love, the people I admire, the famous, and especially the infamous. My last infamous subject was the extreme right wing French politician Jean-Marie Le Pen. – Helmut Newton
119747. I did find a wonderful girl last year, but the photographs that we did were more about motorcars. – Helmut Newton
119748. It’s that I don’t like white paper backgrounds. A woman does not live in front of white paper. She lives on the street, in a motor car, in a hotel room. – Helmut Newton
119749. I have mixed feelings about those sorts of things. When I see it done by interesting young people, I think it’s very valid. But when established photographers, people in their forties, copy me and get a lot of money, well, I find that to be very stupid. – Helmut Newton
119750. I spend a lot of time preparing. I think a lot about what I want to do. I have prep books, little notebooks in which I write everything down before a sitting. Otherwise I would forget my ideas. – Helmut Newton
119751. I used to hate doing color. I hated transparency film. The way I did color was by not wanting to know what kind of film was in my camera. – Helmut Newton
119752. In the photographs themselves there’s a definite contrast between the figures and the location – I like that kind of California backyard look; clapboard houses, staircases outdoors. – Helmut Newton
119753. My job as a portrait photographer is to seduce, amuse and entertain. – Helmut Newton
119754. People gave us everything for free. We were allowed only so much film per picture, but there was no limit to the creativity. I like to say that they let us loose like wild dogs in the streets of Paris. – Helmut Newton
119755. Technically, I have not changed very much. Ask my assistants. They’ll tell you, I am the easiest photographer to work with. I don’t have heavy equipment. I work out of one bag. – Helmut Newton
119756. The whole series is black-and-white, so when I went to shoot one of the women I only had black-and-white film with me. She had reddish hair and was a very pretty girl, a nice girl. – Helmut Newton
119757. They often ask me to shoot for them. But I say no. I think an old guy like me ought not take pages away from young photographers who need the exposure. – Helmut Newton
119758. Well, it takes a certain amount of money. And I’ve got to see pictures of the person ahead of time. If I don’t like the way the person looks I won’t do it. – Helmut Newton

119768. I have the people behind me and the people are my strength. – Huey Newton
119769. I expected to die. At no time before the trial did I expect to escape with my life. Yet being executed in the gas chamber did not necessarily mean defeat. It could be one more step to bring the community to a higher level of consciousness. – Huey Newton
119770. I do not expect the white media to create positive black male images. – Huey Newton
119771. Black Power is giving power to people who have not had power to determine their destiny. – Huey Newton

119785. I was like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. – Isaac Newton
119786. I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people. – Isaac Newton
119787. Errors are not in the art but in the artificers. – Isaac Newton
