154292. One of the most difficult things for people who have been successful in sports is adapting to the daily world where you can’t get an answer from someone until 5 o’clock tomorrow. There is always an excuse. Living 40 or 50 years like that doesn’t get too exciting after a while. – Mark Spitz

154316. I’m at the depot, and I’m not going anywhere. That’s better to deal with than having to deal with the unknown. And the unknown is they don’t want to fail. They don’t want to pay the price unless there’s a guarantee they’re going to get there. – Mark Spitz

154317. If he wins seven golds and ties what I did, then it would be like I was the first man on the moon and he became the second. If he wins more than seven, then he becomes the first man on Mars. We’d both be unique. – Mark Spitz

154319. I got beat real hard and heavy in the Olympic Games in 1968 by a guy who swam an incredible race one time in his whole life, but he did it right at the right time. I’d like to be that guy now. Maybe that’s what I’m going to have to pull out of my hat to make the Olympic team. – Mark Spitz

154320. I don’t care about motivation. I care about credibility. – Eliot Spitzer

154330. To win in Vietnam, we will have to exterminate a nation. – Benjamin Spock

154334. In our country today, very few children are raised to believe that their principal destiny is to serve their family, their country, or God. – Benjamin Spock

154335. I’m not a pacifist. I was very much for the war against Hitler and I also supported the intervention in Korea, but in this war we went in there to steal Vietnam. – Benjamin Spock

154336. I would say that the surest measure of a man’s or a woman’s maturity is the harmony, style, joy, and dignity he creates in his marriage, and the pleasure and inspiration he provides for his spouse. – Benjamin Spock

154337. I was proud of the youths who opposed the war in Vietnam because they were my babies. – Benjamin Spock

154338. Happiness is mostly a by-product of doing what makes us feel fulfilled. – Benjamin Spock

154339. Every child senses, with all the horse sense that’s in him, that any parent is angry inside when children misbehave and they dread more the anger that is rarely or never expressed openly, wondering how awful it might be. – Benjamin Spock

154340. All the time a person is a child he is both a child and learning to be a parent. After he becomes a parent he becomes predominantly a parent reliving childhood. – Benjamin Spock

154341. There are only two things a child will share willingly; communicable diseases and its mother’s age. – Benjamin Spock

154343. I learned early in life that you get places by having the right enemies. – Bishop John Spong

154344. Terrorism is a real despair. These are people for whom life has been so negative that they’re willing to die if they can take down some of their enemies. – John Shelby Spong

154345. You learn that you either are going to have a police state where you don’t have any freedom left, or you’re going to build a world that doesn’t create terrorists – and that means a whole different way of “getting along.” – John Shelby Spong

154348. I think that anything that begins to give people a sense of their own worth and dignity is God. – John Shelby Spong

154349. I admire our ancestors, whoever they were. I think the first self-conscious person must have shaken in his boots. Because as he becomes self-conscious, he’s no longer part of nature. He sees himself against nature. He looks at the vastness of the universe and it looks hostile. – John Shelby Spong

154350. All religion seems to need to prove that it’s the only truth. And that’s where it turns demonic. Because that’s when you get religious wars and persecutions and burning heretics at the stake. – John Shelby Spong

154351. You can’t have a world where 50 percent of the people are dieting and 50 percent of the people are starving if you want stability. – John Shelby Spong

154353. That no government, so called, can reasonably be trusted, or reasonably be supposed to have honest purposes in view, any longer than it depends wholly upon voluntary support. – Lysander Spooner

154355. If the jury have no right to judge of the justice of a law of the government, they plainly can do nothing to protect the people against the oppressions of the government; for there are no oppressions which the government may not authorize by law. – Lysander Spooner

154356. But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain – that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist. – Lysander Spooner

154357. A man is no less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years. – Lysander Spooner

154361. Actually, after the release of the Bond film, the producers came back to me to offer me another one, but I didn’t have any juice left for an immediate encore. – Roger Spottiswoode

154363. I haven’t done the Star Wars kind of films. – Roger Spottiswoode

154364. I think the ethics and morals of genetic engineering are very complicated. It intrigues me. – Roger Spottiswoode

154365. The basic premise of this is that, yes, people have learned to clone each other, but that cloning is illegal. Not that it’s bad, just that the law as it is now, is that if you die, you’re dead. – Roger Spottiswoode

154366. The script is very good because the things that happen in it are very believable to me. It doesn’t presuppose that the world has changed very much. You don’t have to think that you’re in a different world. – Roger Spottiswoode

154367. What you dislike in another take care to correct in yourself. – Thomas Sprat

154368. A great proportion of the wretchedness which has embittered married life, has originated in a negligence of trifles. – Thomas Sprat

154372. What we are effectively doing, I say this to the young people of America whom my colleagues represent, is leaving our children and grandchildren the tab for fighting a war, letting them pay for the lion’s share of it by simply adding it to the national debt. – John Spratt

154373. We have got thousands of nuclear weapons in order to achieve deterrence. – John Spratt

154374. We can have tax cuts, but when we have tax cuts and do not have a surplus, the amount of the tax cut goes straight to the bottom line, adds to the deficit, and the deficit adds to the national debt, and sooner or later, the debt has to be paid. – John Spratt

154375. Three big assumptions proved wrong: one, that the Iraqi people would welcome us as liberators; two, that oil would soon pay for Iraqi’s rebuilding; and, three, that we have plenty of troops, weapons, and equipment for the postwar situation. – John Spratt

154376. This war so far has cost us $125 billion and counting, because largely we decided to do it on our own, with only the United Kingdom as a paying, fully participating partner. – John Spratt

154377. The young in this country, and you fellows are young by my reckoning, have a right to be concerned about the course that our government, the Federal Government, is taking under President Bush. – John Spratt

154378. And it raises a fundamental question: How long can we move the world in one direction while we move in another direction, and do we want to backslide into an era that we finally emerged from where we had a nuclear weapon for every tactical mission? – John Spratt

154379. Our country, the United States of America, may be the world’s largest economy and the world’s only superpower, but we stretch ourselves dangerously thin by taking on commitments like Iraq with only a motley band of allies to share the burden. – John Spratt

154380. Just a few short years ago in the year 2000, the last full fiscal year of the Clinton administration, this country was running a surplus of $236 billion. – John Spratt

154381. I am not disputing the need for this money. What I am disputing and calling attention to is the fact that we are taking the tab for defense in our time against terrorists in the Middle East and elsewhere and shoving this tab off onto our children. – John Spratt

154382. Domestic discretionary spending on education and health care and the environment has been growing at 2 to 3 percent a year. He says we have to rein it in, but he ignores the spending category that is the big spike in the budget. – John Spratt

154383. Democrats and Republicans alike support our military personnel. – John Spratt

154384. As costs mount, in lives and dollars, it is natural to second guess, but one lesson I hope we have learned is that the U.S. cannot go it alone in a policy that leaves American troops taking all the risk and American taxpayers paying all of the costs. – John Spratt

154385. Since the Pentagon underestimated the number of troops required after the end of hostilities, we were not prepared to prevent looting or to guard hundreds of weapons dumps spread throughout the country. – John Spratt

154386. We would take a little bit of money out of a huge increase in ballistic missile defense and put it in a place where it will do a lot of good, namely, in targeted pay increases to our enlisted personnel, particularly our NCOs and our junior warrant officers. – John Spratt

154389. Over there, Kevin McHale, I feel like I’m talking to someone I know. It’s just a total different atmosphere. – Latrell Sprewell

154390. Sam is there, Sam has been playing well, he has been doing great in camp. – Latrell Sprewell

154391. So much tension around here in New York. They want to fine you for every little thing you do. – Latrell Sprewell

154392. Sometimes change is good. Although I didn’t want to leave. – Latrell Sprewell

154393. They got all the size over there, and the teams are really good, so, I think night after night you’re just going to have to be ready to lace them up and be ready to play. The teams out there are really good. – Latrell Sprewell

154394. When I was put in a situation where I’m going there, you have to look at the team and the possibility that hey, we can probably do some good things over there. – Latrell Sprewell

154395. I’m 33 years old now. I really want that ring. I got a taste of it here. – Latrell Sprewell

154396. Fortunately for me I was able to do well here, and it really did great things for my career and now hopefully I can go out there and continue to do what I did. – Latrell Sprewell

154397. Well I forgot how different it was because I’ve been here for about four or five years. It’s a big load off my shoulders now. Now that I’m there, I’m like, man, I can breathe a little bit, you know? – Latrell Sprewell

154398. I think was able to do a lot of things here. – Latrell Sprewell

154399. I think that was one thing I definitely brought to the table, my aggressiveness and my style of play, and I think that’s one of the reasons why the fans here really appreciated the way that I went out and played, just because I think they kind of liked that. – Latrell Sprewell

154400. I think it’ll be an emotional day. It’ll be exciting for me, mostly it’ll be exciting for them. I’m not going to get to come here a lot, so, it’ll be a special day, hopefully. – Latrell Sprewell

154401. I think it was one of the better meetings that I’ve had with those guys, because I was honestly able to say everything I wanted to say, and I pretty much aired out the dirty laundry. So from that point on, I thought all of that was behind us. – Latrell Sprewell

154402. I love New York. A part of me will always be here. What can I say. – Latrell Sprewell

154403. I know just one thing is those guys, KG and everyone, they’re hungry. They want it bad. Sam’s the only one that’s had that, has the ring. Other than him, everybody else over there, we want it bad. – Latrell Sprewell

154404. I definitely think that myself and Sam will help the Timberwolves. – Latrell Sprewell

154405. You guys know the way I play. And what’s so ironic is, KG is the same way. I’m looking at him in practice and going, ‘Wow, I’m always that guy,’ you know? – Latrell Sprewell

154406. And for the first time in a long time, I’m playing along somebody that has that same energy and fire and plays pretty much the same way I do. So, that was just nice to say. – Latrell Sprewell

154407. I just meant as far as coming to the games on time; it was just like I was under the microscope, every little thing, it was like they were looking for me to come in here with my shoes untied. – Latrell Sprewell

154408. It… is the best opportunity we’ve had in the last 25 years to bring about a settlement in Northern Ireland, and I think we should leave no stone unturned to achieve that. – Dick Spring

154409. There is a great deal of work that can be done between the SDLP representing the Nationalist population and the Unionist Parties, and I believe we should set down to do that. – Dick Spring

154410. The British Government and the Irish Government have accepted very clearly the Mitchell Report. – Dick Spring

154411. If I felt we had alienated the Unionists, it would worry me because we’ve spent a great deal of time trying to open up discussion and dialogue with the Unionist Parties. – Dick Spring

154412. I believe we’ve spent many years trying to bring about talks which have all the Parties in Northern Ireland involved so that there’d be inclusive talks. – Dick Spring

154413. I’m not getting frustrated… we all knew from the start that this would be a long process. – Dick Spring

154414. Somebody once said I had a face for radio and a voice for newspapers. – Jerry Springer

154415. With a face like mine, I do better in print. – Jerry Springer

154416. To go from politics to news, at least the subject matter is the same, even if the view is different. – Jerry Springer

154417. My guess is more reporters probably vote Democrat than Republican – just because I think reporters are smart. – Jerry Springer

154418. It’s just a show. It’s not the end of Western Civilization. It’s chewing gum. – Jerry Springer

154419. All of us, whether or not we’re celebrities, every one ought to spend part of their life making someone else’s life better. – Jerry Springer

154420. We can’t just have mainstream behavior on television in a free society, we have to make sure we see the whole panorama of human behavior. – Jerry Springer

154421. I’d love to retouch my whole life. – Dusty Springfield

154422. I wouldn’t know how to handle serenity if somebody handed it to me on a plate. – Dusty Springfield

154423. My sexuality has never been a problem to me but I think it has been for other people. – Dusty Springfield

154424. My affections are easily swayed and I can be very unfaithful. – Dusty Springfield

154425. Somehow I took whatever criticism there was very much to heart. – Dusty Springfield

154426. I’m the most misunderstood, misquoted person I know, honestly. – Dusty Springfield

154427. Sometimes you have to let people down in order to get on, particularly in showbusiness. – Dusty Springfield

154428. I just decided I wanted to become someone else… So I became someone else. – Dusty Springfield

154429. I have tried sex with both men and women. I found I liked it. – Dusty Springfield

154430. I find it an effort to keep up appearances. – Dusty Springfield

154431. Hell, have I been a hell-raiser! – Dusty Springfield

154432. A lot of people say I’m bent, and I’ve heard it so many times that I’ve almost learned to accept it. – Dusty Springfield

154433. I was a nothing kid. Not particularly good. Not particularly bad. – Dusty Springfield

154434. It’s marvellous to be popular, but foolish to think it will last. – Dusty Springfield

154435. There weren’t a lot of girl singers around. Paul McCartney and John Lennon were the guys I looked up to. – Rick Springfield

154436. They were marketing me as a teen idol, when the stuff on the record was not what teen idols were doing at the time. – Rick Springfield

154437. Karma is not just about the troubles, but also about surmounting them. – Rick Springfield

154438. Music is a 24-hour-a-day thing for me. – Rick Springfield

154439. My first crush was Hayley Mills when I was a little kid in England. I used to kiss her picture goodnight. – Rick Springfield

154440. Once I discovered music, I knew what I wanted to do. – Rick Springfield

154441. Puberty hit me very hard, and I basically had no use for school once I discovered the guitar. – Rick Springfield

154442. Residuals from Australia, from the Mission Magic show, saved my butt. So there is a reason for everything. – Rick Springfield

154443. When someone pursues music through your music, that’s the greatest accolade anybody can get. – Rick Springfield

154444. I am a bit more of a whore with my acting than I am with my music. I am not a whore with my music. – Rick Springfield

154445. I’ve heard from writers and musicians and fans that they think I’m underrated. – Rick Springfield

154446. I’ve been writing songs since I was 14 years old, and that’s my true love. – Rick Springfield

154447. I’ve always liked the heavier stuff. I’ve always loved Tool and System of a Down, Korn and Nine Inch Nails. – Rick Springfield

154448. I would have been an Egyptologist if I had had the schooling. – Rick Springfield

154449. I was one of those dark, quiet kids that wrote poetry. – Rick Springfield

154450. I took that time off – I knew it was messing me up, not being connected to a spiritual plane. – Rick Springfield

154451. I learned to read and write and socialize in school, and that’s pretty much it. – Rick Springfield

154452. I don’t want to mix the identities. Noah Drake isn’t Rick Springfield. – Rick Springfield

154453. I am a closet toy freak. I started chasing after some things as far as Star Wars toys – some very rare stuff. – Rick Springfield

154454. Every actor wants to break out of the box that they put you in and that’s where I’m heading, out of the box as fast as I can. – Rick Springfield

154455. Being a songwriter does not rely on an audience or other band members or a camera. I can just sit in a room and write songs. – Rick Springfield

154456. If the timing’s right and the gods are with you, something special happens. – Rick Springfield

154457. I’ll watch any show on the History Channel. – Rick Springfield

154458. I don’t think anyone ever feels acknowledged enough. – Rick Springfield

154459. I was very fortunate to be at the vanguard of music video. – Rick Springfield

154460. No, I always felt that amongst my core fans- because there was a level of popularity that I had in the mid ’80s that was sort of a bump on the scale- they fundamentally understood the values that are at work in my work. – Bruce Springsteen

154461. I tend to be a subscriber to the idea that you have everything you need by the time you’re 12 years old to do interesting writing for most of the rest of your life – certainly by the time you’re 18. – Bruce Springsteen

154462. I think that is what film and art and music do; they can work as a map of sorts for your feelings. – Bruce Springsteen

154463. I was always concerned with writing to my age at a particular moment. That was the way I would keep faith with the audience that supported me as I went along. – Bruce Springsteen

154464. I’m a synthesist. I’m always making music. And I make a lot of different kinds of music all the time. Some of it gets finished and some of it doesn’t. – Bruce Springsteen

154465. If they had told me I was the janitor and would have to mop up and clean the toilets after the show in order to play, I probably would have done it. – Bruce Springsteen

154466. In America everything’s about who’s number one today. – Bruce Springsteen

154467. In the early years, I found a voice that was my voice and also partly my father’s voice. But isn’t that what you always do? Why do kids at 5 years old go into the closet and put their daddy’s shoes on? Hey, my kids do it. – Bruce Springsteen

154468. In the past, some of the songs that were the most fun, and the most entertaining and rocking, fell by the wayside because I was concerned with what I was going to say and how I was going to say it. – Bruce Springsteen

154469. It’s a sad man my friend who’s livin’ in his own skin and can’t stand the company. – Bruce Springsteen

154470. It’s always felt natural, because I’m generally very comfortable with people. – Bruce Springsteen

154471. My only general rule was to steer away from things I played with the band over the past couple of tours. I was interested in re-shaping the Rising material for live shows, so people could hear the bare bones of that. – Bruce Springsteen

154472. You can go from doing something quite silly to something dead serious in the blink of an eye, and if you’re making those connections with your audience then they’re going to go right along with it. – Bruce Springsteen

154473. Plus, you know, when I was young, there was a lot of respect for clowning in rock music – look at Little Richard. It was a part of the whole thing, and I always also believed that it released the audience. – Bruce Springsteen

154474. Talk about a dream, try to make it real. – Bruce Springsteen

154475. The audiences are there as a result of my history with the band but also as a result of my being able to reach people with a tune. – Bruce Springsteen

154476. The best music is essentially there to provide you something to face the world with. – Bruce Springsteen

154477. My image had always been very heterosexual, very straight. So it was a nice experience for me, a chance to clarify my own feelings about gay and lesbian civil rights. – Bruce Springsteen

154478. Your spoken voice is a part of it – not a big part of it, but it’s something. It puts people at ease, and once again kind of reaches out and makes a bridge for what’s otherwise difficult music. – Bruce Springsteen

154479. Yeah, I had gay friends. The first thing I realized was that everybody’s different, and it becomes obvious that all of the gay stereotypes are ridiculous. – Bruce Springsteen

154480. The only thing I can say about having this type of success is that you can get yourself in trouble because basically the world is set open for you. People will say yes to anything you ask, so it’s basically down to you and what you want or need. – Bruce Springsteen

154481. Your success story is a bigger story than whatever you’re trying to say on stage. Success makes life easier. It doesn’t make living easier. – Bruce Springsteen

154482. Yeah, my son likes a lot of guitar bands. He gave me something the other day which was really good. He’ll burn a CD for me full of things that he has, so he’s a pretty good call if I want to check some of that stuff out… The other two aren’t quite into that yet. – Bruce Springsteen

154483. The best music, you can seek some shelter in it momentarily, but it’s essentially there to provide you something to face the world with. – Bruce Springsteen

154484. When it comes to luck, you make your own. – Bruce Springsteen

154485. When I first started in rock, I had a big guy’s audience for my early records. I had a very straight image, particularly through the mid ’80s. – Bruce Springsteen

154486. This music is forever for me. It’s the stage thing, that rush moment that you live for. It never lasts, but that’s what you live for. – Bruce Springsteen

154487. The release date is just one day, but the record is forever. – Bruce Springsteen

154488. But I think that your entire life is a process of sorting out some of those early messages that you got. – Bruce Springsteen

154489. But then I go through long periods where I don’t listen to things, usually when I’m working. In between the records and in between the writing I suck up books and music and movies and anything I can find. – Bruce Springsteen

154490. From the beginning, I imagined I would have a long work life. – Bruce Springsteen

154491. Certainly tolerance and acceptance were at the forefront of my music. – Bruce Springsteen

154492. I like narrative storytelling as being part of a tradition, a folk tradition. – Bruce Springsteen

154493. I have my ideas, I have my music and I also just enjoy showing off, so that’s a big part of it. Also, I like to get up onstage and behave insanely or express myself physically, and the band can get pretty silly. – Bruce Springsteen

154494. I hadn’t performed by myself in a while. It feels very natural to me, and I assume people come for the very same reasons as they do when I’m with the band: to be moved, for something to happen to them. – Bruce Springsteen

154495. I do a lot of curiosity buying; I buy it if I like the album cover, I buy it if I like the name of the band, anything that sparks my imagination. I still like to go to record stores, I like to just wander around and I’ll buy whatever catches my attention. – Bruce Springsteen

154496. I didn’t know if it would be a success-ful one, or what the stages would be, but I always saw myself as a lifetime musician and songwriter. – Bruce Springsteen

154497. I can sing very comfortably from my vantage point because a lot of the music was about a loss of innocence, there’s innocence contained in you but there’s also innocence in the process of being lost. – Bruce Springsteen

154498. I always wanted my music to influence the life you were living emotionally – with your family, your lover, your wife, and, at a certain point, with your children. – Bruce Springsteen

154499. Blind faith in your leaders, or in anything, will get you killed. – Bruce Springsteen

154500. Basically, I was pretty ostracized in my hometown. Me and a few other guys were the town freaks- and there were many occasions when we were dodging getting beaten up ourselves. – Bruce Springsteen

154501. I got to the point where I was sick of fashion again, like I was at the end of high school. – Stephen Sprouse

154502. I would just sketch everything that was being made for the collections. – Stephen Sprouse

154503. Then I moved down to the Bowery to this building where Debbie Harry lived. It was there that I started combining some clothes for her and continued doing the art and photography. – Stephen Sprouse

154504. The photograph, the clothes, the sets – this was about 1974, and I started hanging out with my friend Richard Sold, who was playing in a band with Patti Smith. – Stephen Sprouse

154505. That’s how I taught myself how to draw – tracing the ads and petting new clothes on the models. – Stephen Sprouse

154506. Maybe if they all could he combined – art, rock and fashion. Those were always my favorite things. – Stephen Sprouse

154507. When I went to college, I wasn’t interested in fashion anymore – I was interested in art. – Stephen Sprouse

154508. I watched television a little, but I mostly just drew and read magazines. – Stephen Sprouse

154509. I lived in town until I was eight and then I moved nearer the farmland, so I had a mixture. – Stephen Sprouse

154510. I just really wanted to do art, except when I was taking those photographs of people I would make the clothes that I would photograph them in so I could control the whole thing. – Stephen Sprouse

154511. I grew up in Columbus, Indiana, a kind of industrial and farmland place. – Stephen Sprouse

154512. I don’t know if it’s a movement, but the only thing new that’s happening is that I think music and art and video and fashion are all kind of thrown into one big ball that’s on television, and people see that all the time – you see a fusion of all those things. – Stephen Sprouse

154513. But after the time there I’d had it with fashion again, so I left to go to architecture school in a summer course at Harvard, which didn’t last very long. – Stephen Sprouse

154514. I guess you just fall into things when to you’re supposed to. – Stephen Sprouse

154515. I finished high school there and then I went to Rhode Island School of Design. – Stephen Sprouse

154516. A vigorous temper is not altogether an evil. Men who are easy as an old shoe are generally of little worth. – Charles Spurgeon

154517. A sinner can no more repent and believe without the Holy Spirit’s aid than he can create a world. – Charles Spurgeon

154518. A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes. – Charles Spurgeon

154519. A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble. – Charles Spurgeon

154520. It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness. – Charles Spurgeon

154521. Beware of no man more than of yourself; we carry our worst enemies within us. – Charles Spurgeon

154522. By perseverance the snail reached the ark. – Charles Spurgeon

154523. Free will carried many a soul to hell, but never a soul to heaven. – Charles Spurgeon

154524. Giving is true having. – Charles Spurgeon

154525. Humility is to make a right estimate of one’s self. – Charles Spurgeon

154526. I believe that nothing happens apart from divine determination and decree. We shall never be able to escape from the doctrine of divine predestination – the doctrine that God has foreordained certain people unto eternal life. – Charles Spurgeon

154527. I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration. – Charles Spurgeon

154528. I would go to the deeps a hundred times to cheer a downcast spirit. It is good for me to have been afflicted, that I might know how to speak a word in season to one that is weary. – Charles Spurgeon

154529. If any of you should ask me for an epitome of the Christian religion, I should say that it is in one word – prayer. Live and die without prayer, and you will pray long enough when you get to hell. – Charles Spurgeon

154530. Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength. – Charles Spurgeon

154531. It has been said that our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, but only empties today of its strength. – Charles Spurgeon

154532. It is not well to make great changes in old age. – Charles Spurgeon

154533. If I were a Roman Catholic, I should turn a heretic, in sheer desperation, because I would rather go to heaven than go to purgatory. – Charles Spurgeon

154534. None are more unjust in their judgments of others than those who have a high opinion of themselves. – Charles Spurgeon

154535. We are all at times unconscious prophets. – Charles Spurgeon

154536. The Lord gets his best soldiers out of the highlands of affliction. – Charles Spurgeon

154537. The greatest enemy to human souls is the self-righteous spirit which makes men look to themselves for salvation. – Charles Spurgeon

154538. The goose that lays the golden eggs likes to lay where there are eggs already. – Charles Spurgeon

154539. Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite. – Charles Spurgeon

154540. Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom. – Charles Spurgeon

154541. Of two evils, choose neither. – Charles Spurgeon

154542. We have come to a turning point in the road. If we turn to the right mayhap our children and our children’s children will go that way; but if we turn to the left, generations yet unborn will curse our names for having been unfaithful to God and to His Word. – Charles Spurgeon

154543. No one knows who is listening, say nothing you would not wish put in the newspapers. – Charles Spurgeon

154544. No one is so miserable as the poor person who maintains the appearance of wealth. – Charles Spurgeon

154545. Must is a hard nut to crack, but it has a sweet kernel. – Charles Spurgeon

154546. Many men owe the grandeur of their lives to their tremendous difficulties. – Charles Spurgeon

154547. It’s not the having, it’s the getting. – Charles Spurgeon

154548. Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of God’s grace. – Charles Spurgeon

154549. You might not always get what you want, but you always get what you expect. – Charles Spurgeon

154550. Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of. – Charles Spurgeon

154551. You cannot make a sinner into a saint by killing him. He who does not live as a saint here will never live as a saint hereafter. – Charles Spurgeon

154552. I was starting to become impotent through this diet and couldn’t perform. How many people who are taking the little blue pill, if they started to change what they are eating most of the time, could change the way their sex life is? – Morgan Spurlock

154553. You know, why don’t you take him off all this stuff you have him hopped up on, all this garbage that we’re feeding him, all this sugar and caffeine, and then see what happens? – Morgan Spurlock

154554. The food is absolutely atrocious, and parents have no idea. Parents are giving their kids three dollars and saying, ‘Okay, see you later. Go off to school and have a good lunch.’ – Morgan Spurlock

154555. I think, after about a week in, I started to get really down. I would feel better when I would eat. – Morgan Spurlock

154556. I think that, I’m sure there are gonna be some teachers who are very entrenched in the system, who are going to buy in to what they’re being told, as to what the kids are being fed. – Morgan Spurlock

154557. I had no idea that it was gonna take off the way it did. I thought we made a good movie. – Morgan Spurlock

154558. I don’t know. I have incredible amounts of hope that things can change. It takes people who believe. – Morgan Spurlock

154559. I couldn’t open up a magazine, you couldn’t read a newspaper, you couldn’t turn on the TV without hearing about the obesity epidemic in America. – Morgan Spurlock

154560. Well, even to this day, if I smell a Big Mac, I’m like Pavlov’s dog. My mouth starts watering immediately, like, ‘Man, that is so good,’ but I can’t take a bite of it. – Morgan Spurlock

154561. Obviously my last two years in the NFL were not much fun at all. – Steve Spurrier

154562. So you get two good hours on the field about every day, you get about an hour and a half in the meeting room and that’s pretty much all you need to thoroughly coach your team. – Steve Spurrier

154563. So, I didn’t say we are going to win a lot, but we are going to play like winners, and we’ve got a plan in place to teach our guys how to play like winners and play like a champion. – Steve Spurrier

154564. What I’ve been telling everyone that loves Carolina football is that we are going to put a team out there that, number one, is in good shape. We’re going to be fit, we are going to be able to play the whole game and we’re not going to poop out. – Steve Spurrier

154565. I really believe everything is here for us to be very successful. – Steve Spurrier

154566. So I don’t really believe that how many years you’ve had in the league determines how well your players play… Coaching is coaching. – Steve Spurrier

154567. Our stadium seats over 80,000, and we sell all of our tickets. – Steve Spurrier

154568. Our coaches want to be a part of South Carolina football when they win it for the first time. When they win the division, when they win the SEC, win a major bowl game, etc. The opportunities to do it all for the first time here make it extra special. – Steve Spurrier

154569. But as coaches, we need to get a little more fire and passion and be more demanding that our guys get the job done. I think players will respond to that, and we’ll see. – Steve Spurrier

154570. Number two, we’re going to play with a lot of effort. Our guys are going to be in such good shape that fatigue is not going to be a problem. We’re going to play with full effort from snap to whistle on every play the entire game. – Steve Spurrier

154571. I do have some young coaches, but I don’t really believe that is the biggest problem we have here. – Steve Spurrier

154572. Number three, we’re going to play very smart and we’re not going to beat ourselves. If the other team is better than us and they just out execute us and play better then we can live with that, but we’re going to play smart and give ourselves every opportunity to win the game. – Steve Spurrier

154573. Number four, we’re going to play like winners, play the game the way it’s meant to be played. Don’t get full of yourself if something good happens. Don’t get too depressed when something bad happens. – Steve Spurrier

154574. I think I’ve got an outstanding defensive assistant staff that’s really going to help us have consistent, strong defenses. And offensively, we have an excellent staff. We’ve got some younger guys on offense, but that’s what I coach and have my entire coaching career. – Steve Spurrier

154575. But at some point, we’ve got to have disciplined play and have got to coach better. I’m not putting it on the players. We’ve got to coach them to tackle and block better. It’s as simple as that. If we can do those things, we’ll have a chance. – Steve Spurrier

154576. All I can say is that I’m going to try to coach the way I’ve coached in the past. And if it ends up not being good enough, then so be it. – Steve Spurrier

154577. We’ve got a support system that gives our players a wonderful opportunity to graduate. If they go to class and give good effort, they can graduate from this school, and I believe that’s important when you go out recruiting. – Steve Spurrier

154578. You’re only as big as your last hit. – Chris Squire

154579. Pull the good out of it and not worry about the drawbacks. – Chris Squire

154580. A nightmare is two bassists on stage. – Chris Squire

154581. I know I always worked hard on making sure we came out with the best possible product and of course we were working with four other people, you have to balance that as well. – Chris Squire

154582. The thing that sets Mars apart is that it is the one planet that is enough like Earth that you can imagine life possibly once having taken hold there. – Steven Squyres

154583. We need to drive like hell and get to the hills before the winter sets in. – Steven Squyres

154584. You create a pile of dirt and then drive over it. We may have to learn to drive all over again. – Steven Squyres

154585. We’re stunned by the diversity of rocks. This stuff looks like it was put into a blender. – Steven Squyres

154586. We didn’t know if the rover could climb up or down the hills of the crater. – Steven Squyres

154587. This whole mission has surpassed all of our expectations. – Steven Squyres

154588. These rovers are living on borrowed time. We’re so past warranty on them. You try to push them hard every day because we’re living day to day. – Steven Squyres

154589. That’s really what science is just trying to figure stuff out, and I like figuring stuff out. – Steven Squyres

154590. It’s not going to fill in the potholes. It’s not going to put a roof over people’s heads. What it does is it helps to address really fundamental questions of who we are, where we came from, by which I mean we can learn how life came about. – Steven Squyres

154591. I want to make as many people as possible feel like they are part of this adventure. We are going to give everybody a sense of what exploring the surface of another world is really like. – Steven Squyres

154592. When we opened our eyes, we saw bedrock exposed in the walls of the crater. – Steven Squyres

154593. I can’t ever remember not wanting to be a scientist. – Steven Squyres

154594. Having been given that public trust, we have a responsibility to share with the public. – Steven Squyres

154595. The rocks, to a great extent, look swept clean. It’s a much cleaner surface than what we had a right to hope for. – Steven Squyres

154596. It’s hard to lose when your standards are so low. – John A. Simone, Sr.

154597. If you’re in a bad situation, don’t worry it’ll change. If you’re in a good situation, don’t worry it’ll change. – John A. Simone, Sr.

154598. No where to go, and all day to get there. – John A. Simone, Sr.

154599. The key to wisdom is knowing all the right questions. – John A. Simone, Sr.

154600. God’s creatures, great and small… eat them one, eat them all. – John A. Simone, Sr.

154601. We need to build on the success of Social Security by developing bold and innovative ways for Americans to build wealth and save for retirement. I believe we can work together in a bipartisan manner to accomplish these goals. – Debbie Stabenow

154602. We want to develop innovative ways to promote savings so more Americans can save for their future, but first we need to reject privatization schemes and work together to strengthen Social Security. – Debbie Stabenow

154819. I also find it interesting that a lot of people in their 30s are not married and don’t have kids. There are a lot of people in this age bracket that are out there dating and trying to find love. And I never thought that at my age I would be. – John Stamos

154820. People look at me and go, ‘You must have it made. You have girls. You have a great life. It’s not true. I mean you pull the curtain away, and you see I’m just as insecure and neurotic and scared and vulnerable as anybody, you know. – John Stamos

154821. But if you want to continue to be slaves of the banks and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let bankers continue to create money and control credit. – Josiah Stamp

154822. It is easy to dodge our responsibilities, but we cannot dodge the consequences of dodging our responsibilities. – Josiah Stamp

154823. The Government are very keen on amassing statistics – they collect them, add them, raise them to the nth power, take the cube root and prepare wonderful diagrams. – Josiah Stamp

154824. The individual source of the statistics may easily be the weakest link. – Josiah Stamp

154825. The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. – Josiah Stamp

154826. Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin. – Josiah Stamp

154827. What I wanted more than anything was a long career. – Terence Stamp

154828. I’ve never wanted to become a politician, an interior decorator, I’ve never wanted to speculate and make a load of money. I just wanted this. – Terence Stamp

154829. In my youth I dreamed of being an illustrator. – Terence Stamp

154830. In the case of Elektra I really wasn’t sure I could pull it off. There were so many intellectual leaps. My character, Stick, is blind, but he can see better than most people. So I had trouble kind of finding the logic. – Terence Stamp

154831. It wasn’t until I saw James Dean that I began to think that maybe I could actually do this. Movies didn’t have to be just this fantasy with this impossibly handsome guy. – Terence Stamp

154832. It’s such a performance to bring stuff into America. It’s a great luxury when I am in England. – Terence Stamp

154833. My favorite film is Gene Tierney and Tyrone Power in The Razor’s Edge. – Terence Stamp

154834. My star was kind of fading towards the end of the ’60s and suddenly I got this call from Fellini, who just appeared to kind of love me! – Terence Stamp

154835. Unless I try, I’m never really going to be at ease with myself. – Terence Stamp

154836. At this point, it’s either for fun or it’s for money. I don’t take movies that I don’t really like. – Terence Stamp

154837. When I tested for Billy Budd, I had that kind of confidence that comes with the certainty that you’re not going to get something. I was very rough around the edges. – Terence Stamp

154838. With Fellini, the fear dropped out of my work because it was such a happy experience… hanging out with Fellini, having pasta on the set with Fellini, and going out with Fellini! – Terence Stamp

154839. I’ve been doing Tai Chi on and off for 20 years. The fundamentals of all martial arts are the same. – Terence Stamp

154840. Peter Ustinov was the first really positive influence in my career. He was real and he bore witness to it. The things he said to you, he lived them. – Terence Stamp

154841. A lot of newspapers say, Terence Stamp is playing himself and we’re as bored as he is. – Terence Stamp

154842. I wasn’t at all sure I could make that sort of leap into that sort of comic book reality. – Terence Stamp

154843. I was very disappointed that so much of the work I did on The Haunted Mansion didn’t arrive in the final cut. – Terence Stamp

154844. I have to be stretched in some way. There’s not enough things that come my way that I fancy. – Terence Stamp

154845. I have always had this energy, which I think of as overdrive. – Terence Stamp

154846. He’s Soderbergh, we’re working for him. It doesn’t matter what he’s doing; we’ll see it at the premiere. – Terence Stamp

154847. From the very first movie I ever made to the current time, there have been times between action and cut when I’ve sensed some kind of new dimension that I haven’t been familiar with before. – Terence Stamp

154848. As a boy I believed I could make myself invisible. I’m not sure that I ever could, but I certainly had the ability to pass unnoticed. – Terence Stamp

154849. Although you have some films that are a real bummer, there’s always a film that comes up where it’s just heaven. – Terence Stamp

154850. All actors are incredibly insecure. – Terence Stamp

154851. A lot of young directors, they’re not confident; they’re not open to the emotional level of the scene. – Terence Stamp

154852. A lot of people only see me as villains. – Terence Stamp

154853. I work primarily for the camera-it’s not something I really talk about a lot, but it’s part of the way I am as a movie actor. The camera is my girl, as it were. – Terence Stamp

154854. Anyone who lives within his means suffers from a lack of imagination. – Lionel Stander

154855. I am a professional performer and I only appear on TV for entertainment or for philanthropic organizations, and I consider this a very serious matter that doesn’t fit into either category. – Lionel Stander

154856. Of course, I’m not allowed to talk about the script, but I can say it is a really good story. – Aaron Stanford

154857. The production of wealth is the result of agreement between labor and capital, between employer and employed. Its distribution, therefore, will follow the law of its creation, or great injustice will be done. – Leland Stanford

154858. The only distribution of wealth which is the product of labor, which will be honest, will come through a more equal distribution of the productive capacity of men. – Leland Stanford

154859. The real conflict, if any exists, is between two industrial systems. – Leland Stanford

154860. The rights of one sex, political and otherwise, are the same as those of the other sex, and this equality of rights ought to be fully recognized. – Leland Stanford

154861. The seeming antagonism between capital and labor is the result of deceptive appearance. – Leland Stanford

154862. There is no reason why the women of the country should not greatly advance themselves. – Leland Stanford

154863. There would be no idling in a co-operative workshop. Each workman, being an employer, has a spur to his own industry, and has a pecuniary reason for being watchful of the industry of his fellow workmen. – Leland Stanford

154864. When money is controlled by a few it gives that few an undue power and control over labor and the resources of the country. Labor will have its best return when the laborer can control its disposal. – Leland Stanford

154865. The right of each individual in any relation to secure to himself the full benefits of his intelligence, his capacity, his industry and skill are among the inalienable inheritances of humanity. – Leland Stanford

154866. From my earliest acquaintance with the science of political economy, it has been evident to my mind that capital was the product of labor, and that therefore, in its best analysis there could be no natural conflict between capital and labor. – Leland Stanford

154867. In the unrest of the masses I augur great good. It is by their realizing that their condition of life is not what it ought to be that vast improvements may be accomplished. – Leland Stanford

154868. The employee is regarded by the employer merely in the light of his value as an operative. His productive capacity alone is taken into account. – Leland Stanford

154869. The country blacksmith who employs no journeyman is never conscious of any conflict between the capital invested in his anvil, hammer and bellows, and the labor he performs with them, because in fact, there is none. – Leland Stanford

154870. Money is the great tool through whose means labor and skill become universally co-operative. – Leland Stanford

154871. Many writers upon the science of political economy have declared that it is the duty of a nation first to encourage the creation of wealth; and second, to direct and control its distribution. All such theories are delusive. – Leland Stanford

154872. Legislation has been and is still directed towards the protection of wealth, rather than towards the far more important interests of labor on which everything of value to mankind depends. – Leland Stanford

154873. The employer class is less indispensable in the modern organization of industries because the laboring men themselves possess sufficient intelligence to organize into co-operative relation and enjoy the entire benefits of their own labor. – Leland Stanford

154874. Laboring men can perform for themselves the office of becoming their own employers. – Leland Stanford

154875. The great advantage to labor arising out of co-operative effort has been apparent to me for many years. – Leland Stanford

154876. Labor can and will become its own employer through co-operative association. – Leland Stanford

154877. It is probable that for a long time to come the mass of mankind in civilized countries will find it both necessary and advantageous to labor for wages, and to accept the condition of hired laborers. – Leland Stanford

154878. All legislative experiments in the way of making forcible distribution of the wealth produced in any country have failed. – Leland Stanford

154879. In a very alert and bright state of society people learn co-operation by themselves, but in older and quieter conditions of laboring enterprise, such a bill as I propose will point out the way to mutual exertion. – Leland Stanford

154880. I am in favor of carrying out the Declaration of Independence to women as well as men. Women having to suffer the burdens of society and government should have their equal rights in it. They do not receive their rights in full proportion. – Leland Stanford

154881. A man’s sentiments are generally just and right, while it is second selfish thought which makes him trim and adopt some other view. The best reforms are worked out when sentiment operates, as it does in women, with the indignation of righteousness. – Leland Stanford

154882. Each co-operative institution will become a school of business in which each member will acquire a knowledge of the laws of trade and commerce. – Leland Stanford

154883. Each individual member of a co-operative society works with that interest which is inseparable from the new position he enjoys. Each has an interest in the other. – Leland Stanford

154884. Every thoughtful and kind-hearted person must regard with interest any device or plan which promises to enable at least the more intelligent, enterprising, and determined part of those who are not capitalists to cease to labor for hire. – Leland Stanford

154885. Government itself is founded upon the great doctrine of the consent of the governed, and has its cornerstone in the memorable principle that men are endowed with inalienable rights. – Leland Stanford

154886. I have always been fully persuaded that, through co-operation, labor could become its own employer. – Leland Stanford

154887. I want, in this school, that one sex shall have equal advantage with the other, and I want particularly that females shall have open to them every employment suitable to their sex. – Leland Stanford

154888. In a condition of society and under an industrial organization which places labor completely at the mercy of capital, the accumulations of capital will necessarily be rapid, and an unequal distribution of wealth is at once to be observed. – Leland Stanford

154889. No man can be held throughout the day by what happens throughout the night. – Sally Stanford

154890. The death of the forest is the end of our life. – Dorothy Stang

154891. I don’t want to flee, nor do I want to abandon the battle of these farmers who live without any protection in the forest. They have the sacrosanct right to aspire to a better life on land where they can live and work with dignity while respecting the environment. – Dorothy Stang

154892. A young man, be his merit what it will, can never raise himself; but must, like the ivy round the oak, twine himself round some man of great power and interest. – Philip Stanhope

154893. Whoever incites anger has a strong insurance against indifference. – Philip Stanhope

154894. There is time enough for everything, in the course of the day, if you do but one thing at once; but there is not time enough in the year, if you will do two things at a time. – Philip Stanhope

154895. Politeness is as much concerned in answering letters within a reasonable time, as it is in returning a bow, immediately. – Philip Stanhope

154896. Our prejudices are our mistresses; reason is at best our wife, very often heard indeed, but seldom minded. – Philip Stanhope

154897. Most people enjoy the inferiority of their best friends. – Philip Stanhope

154898. Judgment is not upon all occasions required, but discretion always is. – Philip Stanhope

154899. It is always right to detect a fraud, and to perceive a folly; but it is very often wrong to expose either. A man of business should always have his eyes open, but must often seem to have them shut. – Philip Stanhope

154900. Gratitude is a burden upon our imperfect nature, and we are but too willing to ease ourselves of it, or at least to lighten it as much as we can. – Philip Stanhope

154901. In the mass of mankind, I fear, there is too great a majority of fools and knaves; who, singly from their number, must to a certain degree be respected, though they are by no means respectable. – Philip Stanhope

154902. Words, which are the dress of thoughts, deserve surely more care than clothes, which are only the dress of the person. – Philip Stanhope

154903. Women are only children of a larger growth. A man of sense only trifles with them, plays with them, humours and flatters them, as he does with a sprightly and forward child; but he neither consults them about, nor trusts them with, serious matters. – Philip Stanhope

154904. Have the courage to face a difficulty lest it kick you harder than you bargain for. – Stanislaus I

154905. To believe with certainty we must begin with doubting. – Stanislaus I

154906. Love the art in yourself and not yourself in the art. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154907. The greatest wisdom is to realize one’s lack of it. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154908. Unless the theatre can ennoble you, make you a better person, you should flee from it. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154909. The main factor in any form of creativeness is the life of a human spirit, that of the actor and his part, their joint feelings and subconscious creation. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154910. Talent is nothing but a prolonged period of attention and a shortened period of mental assimilation. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154911. Our demands are simple, normal, and therefore they are difficult to satisfy. All we ask is that an actor on the stage live in accordance with natural laws. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154912. Create your own method. Don’t depend slavishly on mine. Make up something that will work for you! But keep breaking traditions, I beg you. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154913. We have as many planes of speech as does a painting planes of perspective which create perspective in a phrase. The most important word stands out most vividly defined in the very foreground of the sound plane. Less important words create a series of deeper planes. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154914. Remember: there are no small parts, only small actors. – Konstantin Stanislavisky

154915. Of all the things Christ wants for us, loving Him and focusing our attention on Him are the most important. – Charles Stanley

154916. Yieldedness is vital in listening to what He has to say. – Charles Stanley

154917. When God speaks, oftentimes His voice will call for an act of courage on our part. – Charles Stanley

154918. God will never tell us to do something that gratifies the flesh. – Charles Stanley

154919. We can be tired, weary and emotionally distraught, but after spending time alone with God, we find that He injects into our bodies energy, power and strength. – Charles Stanley

154920. We are either in the process of resisting God’s truth or in the process of being shaped and molded by his truth. – Charles Stanley

154921. To have God speak to the heart is a majestic experience, an experience that people may miss if they monopolize the conversation and never pause to hear God’s responses. – Charles Stanley

154922. The best way in the world to deceive believers is to cloak a message in religious language and declare that it conveys some new insight from God. – Charles Stanley

154923. The amount of time we spend with Jesus – meditating on His Word and His majesty, seeking His face – establishes our fruitfulness in the kingdom. – Charles Stanley

154924. Since God knows our future, our personalities, and our capacity to listen, He isn’t ever going to say more to us than we can deal with at the moment. – Charles Stanley

154925. I’m convinced that the man who has learned to meditate upon the Lord will be able to run on his feet and walk in his spirit. Although he may be hurried by his vocation, that’s not the issue. The issue is how fast his spirit is going. To slow it down takes a period of time. – Charles Stanley

154926. His voice leads us not into timid discipleship but into bold witness. – Charles Stanley

154927. God’s voice is still and quiet and easily buried under an avalanche of clamour. – Charles Stanley

154928. An unschooled man who knows how to meditate upon the Lord has learned far more than the man with the highest education who does not know how to meditate. – Charles Stanley

154929. A Christian has no right being in a fight unless it’s a spiritual fight. – Charles Stanley

154930. If we rationalize our problems when He points them out, we will spend less and less time meditating because we won’t want to face God in that area of our lives. – Charles Stanley

154931. He wants you all to Himself to put His loving, divine arms around you. – Charles Stanley

154932. We must never throw away a bushel of truth because it happens to contain a few grains of chaff. – Dean Stanley

154933. The true call of a Christian is not to do extraordinary things, but to do ordinary things in an extraordinary way. – Dean Stanley

154934. I have looked on scenery as a strange and on scenery more grand, but on scenery at once so strange and so grand I have never looked and probably never shall again. – Dean Stanley

154935. Dr. David Livingstone left the Island of Zanzibar in March, 1866. – Henry Morton Stanley

154936. But my estimates, for instance, based upon book information, were simply ridiculous, fanciful images of African attractions were soon dissipated, anticipated pleasures vanished, and all crude ideas began to resolve themselves into shape. – Henry Morton Stanley

154937. I had intended to have gone into Africa incognito. But the fact that a white man, even an American, was about to enter Africa was soon known all over Zanzibar. – Henry Morton Stanley

154938. The Europeans and Americans residing in the town of Zanzibar are either Government officials, independent merchants, or agents for a few great mercantile houses in Europe and America. – Henry Morton Stanley

154939. The sky lovingly smiles on the earth and her children. – Henry Morton Stanley

154940. An insuperable obstacle to rapid transit in Africa is the want of carriers, and as speed was the main object of the Expedition under my command, my duty was to lessen this difficulty as much as possible. – Henry Morton Stanley

154941. A Kiss concert experience is like sex or anything else that’s done with more that one person. It’s the give and take that makes it so great. When the audience takes it to the next level, we can kick it up another notch. – Paul Stanley

154942. Gene sometimes… well, he has his dream list. – Paul Stanley

154943. The great thing about rock-n-roll is you realize the top of the mountain is big enough for more than one band. – Paul Stanley

154944. Nothing could ever stop Kiss. I’ve seen the band in down times where critics were like vultures circling overhead saying things like, ‘Well, you know it’s the end of your career.’ – Paul Stanley

154945. The financial reward is great and I love the life I have, but all money makes possible is for you to stop worrying about money. Then you have freedom to live your life. – Paul Stanley

154946. When you start fooling around with drugs, you’re hurting your creativity, you’re hurting your health. Drugs are death, in one form or another. If they don’t kill you, they kill your soul. And if your soul’s dead, you’ve got nothing to offer, anyway. – Paul Stanley

154947. I believe in my music. – Ralph Stanley

154948. I don’t listen to the radio too much, but usually I listen to Stanley Brothers and Ralph Stanley more than I do anybody! – Ralph Stanley

154949. I would have quit before I went rock-n-roll. I know one way, and that’s natural, and when I can’t make it, I’ll come home and stay. I believe in my music. – Ralph Stanley

154950. I’m thankful that I have lived long enough to become a legend, and I hope I deserve it. – Ralph Stanley

154951. I’ve done it all. I’m thankful and proud of what I’ve accomplished in my life. I hope to keep doing it. – Ralph Stanley

154952. The soundtrack of O Brother is the most publicity I’ve gotten. I don’t feel that I have lost any of my old fans, but I have gained new ones. – Ralph Stanley

154953. Do you know what a Palmist once said to me? She said: will you let go! – Vivian Stanshall

154954. I’m not different for the sake of being different, only for the desperate sake of being myself. I can’t join your gang: you’d think I was a phony and I’d know it. – Vivian Stanshall

154955. Why can’t I be different and unusual… like everyone else? – Vivian Stanshall

154956. If I had all the money I’d spent on drink, I’d spend it on drink. – Vivian Stanshall

154957. All persons harboring or secreting the conspirators or aiding their concealment or escape, will be treated as accomplices in the murder of the President and shall be subject to trial before a military commission, and the punishment of death. – Edwin M. Stanton

154958. Come here immediately and see if you can find the murderer of the President. – Edwin M. Stanton

154959. I know General Grant better than any other person in the country can know him. It was my duty to study him, and I did so day and night, when I saw him and when I did not see him, and now I tell you what I know, he cannot govern this country. – Edwin M. Stanton

154960. The prisoners for better security against conversation shall have a canvas bag put over the head of each and tied around the neck, with a holes for proper breathing and eating, but not seeing. – Edwin M. Stanton

154961. The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154962. Come, come, my conservative friend, wipe the dew off your spectacles, and see that the world is moving. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154963. To live for a principle, for the triumph of some reform by which all mankind are to be lifted up to be wedded to an idea may be, after all, the holiest and happiest of marriages. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154964. The woman is uniformly sacrificed to the wife and mother. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154965. The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to women is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154966. The religious superstitions of women perpetuate their bondage more than all other adverse influences. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154967. The more complete the despotism, the more smoothly all things move on the surface. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154968. The heyday of woman’s life is the shady side of fifty. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154969. The greatest block today in the way of woman’s emancipation is the church, the canon law, the Bible and the priesthood. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154970. The Bible and the Church have been the greatest stumbling blocks in the way of women’s emancipation. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154971. To make laws that man cannot, and will not obey, serves to bring all law into contempt. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154972. Surely the immutable laws of the universe can teach more impressive and exalted lessons than the holy books of all the religions on earth. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154973. The prolonged slavery of women is the darkest page in human history. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154974. The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154975. Self-development is a higher duty than self-sacrifice. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154976. Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154977. It is impossible for one class to appreciate the wrongs of another. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154978. I thought that the chief thing to be done in order to equal boys was to be learned and courageous. So I decided to study Greek and learn to manage a horse. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154980. I am always busy, which is perhaps the chief reason why I am always well. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154981. Human beings lose their logic in their vindictiveness. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154982. The best protection any woman can have… is courage. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154983. Words cannot describe the indignation a proud woman feels for her sex in disfranchisement. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154984. We are the only class in history that has been left to fight its battles alone, unaided by the ruling powers. White labor and the freed black men had their champions, but where are ours? – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154985. We found nothing grand in the history of the Jews nor in the morals inculcated in the Pentateuch. I know of no other books that so fully teach the subjection and degradation of woman. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154986. We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and women are created equal. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154987. Woman’s discontent increases in exact proportion to her development. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154988. Women of all classes are awakening to the necessity of self-support, but few are willing to do the ordinary useful work for which they are fitted. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton

154989. The memory of my own suffering has prevented me from ever shadowing one young soul with the superstition of the Christian religion. – Elizabeth Cady Stanton
