123212. Improvisation is terribly haphazard. – Leo Ornstein
123213. I’m really interested in writing a piece of music that will move you, that will really move you. That is really the only reason that I’m writing music. – Leo Ornstein
123214. Now, what we are not talking about, what you’re really coming to, is what compromises one makes so that the listener understands somewhat of what you’re doing, what you’re trying to express. – Leo Ornstein
123215. I think recordings have been a terrific advance because now, when you have a piece of music, particularly something that appears to the listener very complicated, there’s really a push to the world to try to figure out what it was that he was hearing. – Leo Ornstein
123216. But in the end, music is ultimately an aural art, pure and simple. – Leo Ornstein
123217. Hopefully, I have a certain amount of what you call musical talent. – Leo Ornstein
123218. By the way, the point between rationality and what we would call the irrational is a very difficult point to establish. There’s no specific line, as you know. – Leo Ornstein
123219. By the visual pattern, but mostly I’m guided entirely by my ear, what I hear. – Leo Ornstein
123220. Besides merely some pleasure that we get out of the combinations of pitches together and lines, I think that there is some satisfaction that we get in the fact of having this diffuse thing organized very concretely and put onto a frame and have it actually decided. – Leo Ornstein
123221. Well, no. I believe that it’s not at all impossible that some of the performances that I’ve heard so far by some pianists may be superior to my own playing because those are two totally different acts altogether. – Leo Ornstein
123222. A person improvising is sometimes very fortunate that just at that second things coincide. – Leo Ornstein
123223. I think there have been some periods when the writing almost became a bit of a burden. – Leo Ornstein

123225. Of all the arts, music is really the most abstract. – Leo Ornstein
123226. You write it down because finally, when it’s written down you do get it out of your system somewhat. – Leo Ornstein
123227. Because essentially Schoenberg was an extremely gifted man. And in spite of many of his theories and so on, when he really began to write music, he still was guided very much by his internal hearing, by what we call your internal ear. – Leo Ornstein
123228. Today each composer is not only involved in aesthetics, but he’s actually trying to create his own language. – Leo Ornstein
123229. To the person that deals in visualizations, I suppose there is something rather exciting about a whole set of people – they all going symmetrically, up or down, in a military sort of precision. – Leo Ornstein
123230. There are some people, by the way, that associate a certain amount of visualization with the performance of music. Those are people that really are not centrally concerned only with music, the traditional things. – Leo Ornstein
123231. The difference between the student and the born composer is he really hears the thing, and they have to stage it and manipulate it by technical equipment. – Leo Ornstein
123232. The danger of that – and there’s a grave danger that I, myself, have to be very aware of – is that you become so involved and intrigued in the language that sometimes you lose track that that is only a means to an aesthetic experience that the listener has to get. – Leo Ornstein
123233. When I was speaking about communicating, I meant that the listener – we have to reach the listener; otherwise, of course, you’re writing the piece, as I say, only for the satisfaction of seeing it on the paper for yourself, and then it ends right there. – Leo Ornstein
123234. They used a doll when I fall through the ceiling. – Heather O’Rourke

123284. The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn’t work and then they get elected and prove it. – P. J. O’Rourke

123301. The kids wait for it to be organized. They want to go play all of these tournaments, for a little practice time. I learned my skills by dropping the puck just with the kids. I think that’s missing today. – Bobby Orr
123302. You hear all the time about European players playing the game. These players that come over at 17, 18 and 19, they just don’t all of a sudden become skilled. From the time they were little fellas, they learned the fundamentals of the game. Let them create. – Bobby Orr

123614. To study the phenomena of disease without books is to sail an uncharted sea, while to study books without patients is not to go to sea at all. – William Osler
123615. The value of experience is not in seeing much, but in seeing wisely. – William Osler
123616. There is no more difficult art to acquire than the art of observation, and for some men it is quite as difficult to record an observation in brief and plain language. – William Osler
123617. It is much simpler to buy books than to read them and easier to read them than to absorb their contents. – William Osler

123640. I’m going to try and model myself after Kurt Russell and Jodie Foster. – Haley Joel Osment
123641. My favorite place is Central Park because you never know what you’re going to find there. I also like that when I look out the windows of surrounding hotels, it’s seems like I’m looking out over a forest. – Haley Joel Osment
123642. I never smile unless I mean it. – Donny Osmond
123643. If you’re climbing the ladder of life, you go rung by rung, one step at a time. Don’t look too far up, set your goals high but take one step at a time. Sometimes you don’t think you’re progressing until you step back and see how high you’ve really gone. – Donny Osmond
123644. My father instilled in me the attitude of prevailing. If there’s a challenge, go for it. If there’s a wall to break down, break it down. – Donny Osmond

123650. I didn’t know my mother had it. I think a lot of women don’t know their mothers had it; that’s the sad thing about depression. You know, you don’t function anymore. You shut down. You feel like you are in a void. – Marie Osmond
123651. I found for me that my safe place was work. I could control my environment. I became very fastidious and detailed, and wanted things a certain way. – Marie Osmond
123652. If you’re going to be able to look back on something and laugh about it, you might as well laugh about it now. – Marie Osmond
123653. The other thing is that doctors test only the most common estrogen level. There are three kinds of estrogen in a woman but they don’t test the other two because they are so rare; mine was the third kind of estrogen. – Marie Osmond
123654. So, babies are taken from their mothers because they get temporarily insane and it’s not the mother’s fault. This is the thing: they shouldn’t feel ashamed. They didn’t cause this. It is not something they did to themselves. – Marie Osmond

123660. What basically happens is your hormones get out of whack. Because of the stress in your life your body says, ‘I need more hormones.’ So, your hormones are trying to produce and produce and produce, and it’s even more stressful and it is this wicked cycle. – Marie Osmond
123661. I lost boundaries as a child that I didn’t even realize it and it wasn’t talked about back then. You know, it was something you just buried and dealt with, and moved forward. What could you do about it? – Marie Osmond
123662. When you have a baby, love is automatic, when you get married, love is earned. – Marie Osmond

123664. You know, you don’t work 30 something years in this business without knowing how to push yourself. So, I just kept pushing myself and pushing myself. The other thing that happens is when your hormones get out of whack your emotions come up. – Marie Osmond
123665. You just need to be honest with how you’re feeling. But, a lot of women are afraid of it because they think, ‘Oh, they are going to take my baby away. They’re gonna call me incompetent. I’m going to lose my job. I’ve got to be tough, it’s a man’s world.’ – Marie Osmond

123702. We know from biology that new forms of organisms simulate their primitive form as closely as possible at first, even though obliged to exist under changed internal and external conditions. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123703. In the first quarter of the nineteenth century the experimental proof for the interdependence of the composition and properties of chemical compounds resulted in the theory that they are mutually related, so that like composition governs like properties, and conversely. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123704. It has pleased no less than surprised me that of the many studies whereby I have sought to extend the field of general chemistry, the highest scientific distinction that there is today has been awarded for those on catalysis. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123705. Nowadays, however, we recognize that simultaneously with the typical case of a chemical reaction a typical case of catalytic effect had been studied which constitutes a limiting case. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123706. Soon afterwards I studied the inversion of sugar in the light of these considerations and immediately found that this classical reaction, too, was determined quantitatively by the same property of the acids, as was of course to be expected from the previous results. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123707. The development of a rational view of the nature of catalysis was thus absolutely dependent on the creation of the concept of the rate of chemical reaction. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123708. The distinction between the old and the new formulations consisting in the incorporation of the concept of the rate of chemical reactions is so great that it immediately asserted itself in the objective development of catalysis. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123709. The individual organs follow the same pattern as the whole organism, i.e. they have their period of growth, of stationary, maximum activity and then of aging decline. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123710. In other words, the Church acknowledges Science as the higher authority. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123711. The worst manifestations of exhaustion were successfully cured by a long period of rest but it was immediately apparent to me that I had lost once and for all my former capacity for carrying out experimental work until physically tired. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123712. For, with pure water the inversion of cane sugar scarcely proceeds and subsequently it required very thorough, difficult studies before this effect and its order of magnitude were established. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123713. Faced with this general consideration it will immediately be realized on inquiry into the particular position occupied within this general scheme by the scientific field of catalysis that it is in the first stages of its development. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123714. In specific circumstances the period of aging decline can set in earlier in a particular organ than in the organism as a whole which, in a certain general or theoretical sense, is left a cripple or invalid. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123715. Whether that coherence obtains universally is a question that need not be answered here since only those parts where the coherence has actually been found become part of Science. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123716. The well-known fact that the form of a specific substance, e.g. water, and hence its properties can alter without a change in composition was disposed of by the formal view that a physical, not a chemical, process was involved. – Wilhelm Ostwald
123717. I always felt that the Cubans were being pushed into the Soviet Bloc by American policy. – Lee Harvey Oswald

123723. And that is my definition of democracy, the right to be in a minority and not be suppressed. – Lee Harvey Oswald
123724. Lee was such a fine, high-class boy. If my son killed the president he would have said so. That’s the way he was brought up. – Marguerite Oswald
123725. Mr Johnson should remember that I am not just anyone and that he is only president of the United States by the grace of my son’s action. – Marguerite Oswald

123735. 90% of every art form is garbage – dance and stand-up, painting and music. Focus on the 10% that’s good, suck it up, and drive on. – Patton Oswalt
123736. I think I realized it was an art form at the beginning, but it took me a really long time before I was able to view what I was performing myself as an art form. – Patton Oswalt
123737. I mean, the death in the late eighties and early nineties really shook out a lot of hacks. The pond just sort of dried up for a lot of really bad comedians. – Patton Oswalt
123738. I mean, all alternative comedy is are comedians that have being doing it for so long, for so long, that they were relaxed enough to start becoming personal on stage. – Patton Oswalt
123739. I have to drink this much to be as unfunny as you. – Patton Oswalt
123740. I hate all sidekicks. – Patton Oswalt
123741. George Bush is not stupid. He’s evil. OK? There’s a huge difference between stupid and evil. – Patton Oswalt
123742. I’ve hung out in the writer’s room a few times, but the fact is we’ve got such a good writing staff, I don’t want to get my peanut butter fingerprints on anything. – Patton Oswalt

123746. My doctor felt that the main contributing factor was so many years of malnutrition, especially during my formative years, even before I got into modeling. – Carre Otis
123747. The pressure was if I didn’t get into that dress size someone else would – someone else would get the job. – Carre Otis
123748. I had my first seizure, and I had to go in for heart surgery. – Carre Otis
123749. I had dropped out of school and was a runaway, so I didn’t have family to fall back on if I didn’t work. I didn’t have a lot of other options of making money other than modeling. – Carre Otis
123750. I am not naturally that thin, so I had to go through everything from using drugs to diet pills to laxatives to fasting. Those were my main ways of controlling my weight. – Carre Otis
123751. Anorexia was there for me before I got into modeling, but because of the arena and the demands, the disease really got out of control for me. It’s like being an alcoholic and going and being a bartender. – Carre Otis
123752. It not unusual for women with anorexia to suffer heart attacks. – Carre Otis
123753. Part of treatment for drugs and alcohol is you abstain from these, but with eating disorders you can’t abstain from food so the treatment is longer than drugs and alcohol. – Carre Otis

123758. It is a clear truth that those who every day barter away other men’s liberty will soon care little for their own. – James Otis

123773. What can you say about such a man as Christopher Reeve? He embodied all the best that a human being can hope to be. – Annette O’Toole

123775. When executing advertising, it’s best to think of yourself as an uninvited guest in the living room of a prospect who has the magical power to make you disappear instantly. – John O’Toole
