60254. I’m a workaholic. Before long I’m traveling on my nervous energy alone. This is incredibly exhausting. – Eva Gabor
60255. I was the first actress in the family, and I am still the only actress in the family. I shouldn’t be saying it, but it slipped out! – Eva Gabor
60256. My first husband, yes, I eloped with him from Hungary against my mother’s wishes. – Eva Gabor
60257. I made up my mind to be an actress when I was 4 years old. – Eva Gabor
60258. There was no way I could live in Hollywood and not become an actress. – Eva Gabor
60259. I learned early that you only have so much energy to give. You have to spend it correctly. – Eva Gabor
60260. East Hampton happens to have been the first place in the world where I was a star, a real star with a star pasted above my name on the dressing-room door. – Eva Gabor
60261. After all the work I’ve done, why should I suddenly be treated as a bona fide actress? – Eva Gabor
60262. I should have been smart enough to stay happy. But my ambition ruled my life. – Eva Gabor
60263. I’m a great housekeeper. I get divorced. I keep the house. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60264. Husbands are like fires – they go out when unattended. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60265. I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man I keep his house. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60266. I call everyone ‘Darling’ because I can’t remember their names. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60267. I don’t remember anybody’s name. How do you think the “dahling” thing got started? – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60268. I know nothing about sex, because I was always married. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60269. How many husbands have I had? You mean apart from my own? – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60270. I want a man who’s kind and understanding. Is that too much to ask of a millionaire? – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60271. Macho does not prove mucho. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60272. One of my theories is that men love with their eyes; women love with their ears. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60273. The women’s movement hasn’t changed my sex life. It wouldn’t dare. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60274. To a smart girl men are no problem – they’re the answer. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60275. We were both in love with him. I fell out of love with him, but he didn’t. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60276. When I’m alone, I can sleep crossways in bed without an argument. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60277. You never really know a man until you have divorced him. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60278. I never hated a man enough to give him diamonds back. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60279. He taught me housekeeping; when I divorce I keep the house. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60280. Getting divorced just because you don’t love a man is almost as silly as getting married just because you do. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60281. A man in love is incomplete until he has married. Then he’s finished. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60282. Conrad Hilton was very generous to me in the divorce settlement. He gave me 5000 Gideon Bibles. – Zsa Zsa Gabor
60283. I think that you get the mood of a song stronger if you get it right that way. On the other hand, you put some songs out live and they don’t catch flight. They just flop. It is hard to tell until they are out there. – Peter Gabriel
60284. I think one of the things about writing in the studio is that the song hasn’t matured, if you like, so quite often the vocals are early attempts. Whereas once you’ve taken it out on the road a bit, you learn more about a song. – Peter Gabriel
60285. I think it is the weak and the young and the minorities that you need to look after to get a healthy creative environment – to get a lot of choices, a lot of different styles of music, a lot experimental stuff that everyone else feeds off. – Peter Gabriel
60286. I think another thing is that we don’t really want exclusivity. We accept that it is in the artist’s interest to be on sale in every place where they sell music. – Peter Gabriel
60287. I’m a bit cynical that it ever will be addressed properly. I think it is healthy to get some sort of copyright protection. But some of it has gone on forever. – Peter Gabriel
60288. One thing that really appeals to me is this idea of music being a living thing that has an evolution that, in a way, enables the artist to sell a process rather than a piece of product. – Peter Gabriel
60289. The industry does have some influence on who gets other awards. With the Mercury Prize, they don’t. Jon comes from the business, but his heart is still very much in the music. Currently, we have about 12 major names that have said they want to be a part of MUDDA. – Peter Gabriel
60290. The real being of language is that into which we are taken up when we hear it – what is said. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60291. I basically only read books that are over 2,000 years old. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60292. The more language is a living operation, the less we are aware of it. Thus it follows from the self-forgetfulness of language that its real being consists in what is said in it. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60293. It is one of the primary motives of modern art that it wants to abolish the distance which the viewer, the consumer, the audience maintain vis-a-vis a work of art. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60294. It was clear to me that the forms of consciousness of our inherited and acquired historical education – aesthetic consciousness and historical consciousness – presented alienated forms of our true historical being. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60295. Long before we understand ourselves through the process of self-examination, we understand ourselves in a self-evident way in the family, society and state in which we live. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60296. Nothing exists except through language. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60297. The focus of subjectivity is a distorting mirror. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60298. In fact history does not belong to us; but we belong to it. – Hans-Georg Gadamer
60299. There must be a world revolution which puts an end to all materialistic conditions hindering woman from performing her natural role in life and driving her to carry out man’s duties in order to be equal in rights. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60300. We are telling the American people to have patience, courage, resolve and determination. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60301. The times of Arab nationalism and unity are gone forever. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60302. Nations whose nationalism is destroyed are subject to ruin. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60303. We have been terrorised by what happened in America and we express our condolences to the American people who suffered from this unexpected catastrophe and a new world war. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60304. Libya has had to put up with too much from the Arabs for whom it has poured forth both blood and money. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60305. I cannot recognise either the Palestinian state or the Israeli state. The Palestinians are idiots and the Israelis are idiots. – Muammar al Gaddafi
60306. Stupidity is the deliberate cultivation of ignorance. – William Gaddis
60307. Power doesn’t corrupt people, people corrupt power. – William Gaddis
60308. There is nothing more distressing or tiresome than a writer standing in front of an audience and reading his work. – William Gaddis
60309. We’re comic. We’re all comics. We live in a comic time. And the worse it gets the more comic we are. – William Gaddis
60310. Justice? You get justice in the next world, in this world you have the law. – William Gaddis
60311. I see the player piano as the grandfather of the computer, the ancestor of the entire nightmare we live in, the birth of the binary world where there is no option other than yes or no and where there is no refuge. – William Gaddis
60312. He was the only person caught in the collapse, and afterward, most of his work was recovered too, and it is still spoken of, when it is noted, with high regard, though seldom played. – William Gaddis
60313. What is it they want from the man that they didn’t get from the work? What do they expect? What is there left when he’s done with his work, what’s any artist but the dregs of his work, the human shambles that follows it around? – William Gaddis
60314. How some of the writers I come across get through their books without dying of boredom is beyond me. – William Gaddis
60315. What I can do for my country, I am willing to do. – Christopher Gadsden
60316. I gave my parole once, and it has been shamefully violated by the British Government; I shall not give another to people on whom no faith can be reposed. – Christopher Gadsden
60317. I give no more paroles to British officers. – Christopher Gadsden
60318. I therefore beg that you would indulge me with the liberty of declining the arduous trust. – Christopher Gadsden
60319. If my acceptance of the office of Governor would serve my country, though my administration would be attended with the loss of personal credit and reputation, I would cheerfully undertake it. – Christopher Gadsden
60320. It may not be proper for me, perhaps, to let my feelings carry me further am therefore resigned to stop here, if sir, you think my particular reasons following too free, or will give offense to the House, which I would be sorry to be thought capable of intending. – Christopher Gadsden
60321. My sentiments for the American cause, from the Stamp Act downward, have never changed… I am still of opinion that it is the cause of liberty and of human nature. – Christopher Gadsden
60322. No man in America ever strove more, and more successfully first to bring about a Congress in 1765, and then to support it ever afterwards than myself. – Christopher Gadsden
60323. The House of Commons, refused to receive the addresses of the colonies, when the matter was pending; besides, we hold our rights neither from them nor from the Lords. – Christopher Gadsden
60324. The present times require the vigor and the activity of the prime of life; but I feel the increasing infirmities of age to such a degree, that I am conscious I cannot serve you to advantage. – Christopher Gadsden
60325. And, Mr. Speaker, if the Governor and Council don’t see fit to fall in with us, I say let the general duty law, and all, go to the devil, sir, and go about our business. – Christopher Gadsden
60326. The reclamation scheme is both feasible and desirable. – James Gadsden
60327. If the area were on or near the U.S. continental shelf, such data could well provide an enemy with strategically invaluable insights into undersea access routes that could be used to attack some of the millions of Americans who live on or near our coasts. – Frank Gaffney
60328. One of the most important post-9/11 efforts made to counter terrorism and the spread of weapons of mass destruction is President Bush’s Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI). – Frank Gaffney
60329. The more we are consuming oil that either comes from places that are bent on our destruction or helping those who are… the more we are enabling those who are trying to kill us. – Frank Gaffney
60330. The United Nations has long sought the ability to raise revenues in this manner as a means of reducing its reliance on American and other member nations’ dues to sustain the UN’s operations. – Frank Gaffney
60331. The object of China’s strategy is inexorably to supplant the United States as the world’s premier economic power, and if necessary, to defeat us militarily. – Frank Gaffney
60332. The most desirable aspects of the Law of the Sea Treaty pertain to navigational rights. – Frank Gaffney
60333. ). Dozens of nations have agreed to join in monitoring and, if necessary, intercepting and boarding ships on the high seas in the event they are suspected of engaging in one or both of these threatening activities. – Frank Gaffney
60334. The instrument that I never learned how to play was my fans. You know, they are the part of the story that nobody teaches you. I just want to do the right thing; I want to be a voice with them, among them. – Lady Gaga
60335. I’ve been actually really very pleased to see how much awareness was raised around bullying, and how deeply it affects everyone. You know, you don’t have to be the loser kid in high school to be bullied. Bullying and being picked on comes in so many different forms. – Lady Gaga
60336. I’ve had grand pianos that are more expensive than, like, a year’s worth of rent. – Lady Gaga
60337. If you are not being bullied all I would say – cause I like to talk about the other side of it as well – is you know, be someone that nurtures, and if there’s someone in your class that maybe doesn’t have a lot of friends, be the person that sits with them in the cafeteria sometimes; be the bigger person. – Lady Gaga
60338. If you only believe that you’re an artist when you have a big advance in your pocket and a single coming out, I would say that’s quite soulless. You have to have a sense of your own greatness and your own ability from a very deep place inside you. I am the one with the litmus test in my hands of what people need to hear next. – Lady Gaga
60339. In a sense I portray myself in a very androgynous way, and I love androgyny. – Lady Gaga
60340. I’m working on bringing the instant film camera back as part of the future. – Lady Gaga
60341. Pop stars should not eat. – Lady Gaga
60342. I like pushing boundaries. – Lady Gaga
60343. What I’ve discovered is that in art, as in music, there’s a lot of truth-and then there’s a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth, but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for, my moment. It’s the moment that the audience falls in love. – Lady Gaga
60344. What I’ve learned is that you really don’t need to be a celebrity or have money or have the paparazzi following you around to be famous. – Lady Gaga
60345. When the whole world has their eyes on you, if you say something that doesn’t truly come from your spirit and your soul, or if you wear something that doesn’t come from your spirit and your soul, it’s an injustice to your position. And so, I’m really myself every single day and I do it because I know my fans would want me to. – Lady Gaga
60346. Where I come from it was really unheard of to be at a party and someone says, ‘What kind of music do you make?’, and you say, ‘Pop music.’ You may as well have ‘I’m not cool’ stamped on your forehead. – Lady Gaga
60347. I’m definitely a Polaroid camera girl. For me, what I’m really excited about is bringing back the artistry and the nature of Polaroid. – Lady Gaga
60348. I was performing in New York and my friends started to call me Gaga, they said I was very theatrical and they said, ‘You’re Gaga’. – Lady Gaga
60349. I live halfway between reality and theater at all times. And I was born this way. – Lady Gaga
60350. I hope that what you take away from my album is not just the music – which I did want to be fun, and I did want it to be about individuality, but please also take away from it that there’s no dream that’s too big. – Lady Gaga
60351. I had this dream, and I really wanted to be a star. And I was almost a monster in the way that I was really fearless with my ambitions. – Lady Gaga
60352. I guess you could say I devoted myself so strongly to my music that for awhile I forgot about my family. But I only get one set of parents, and I think I forgot about that for a little while. – Lady Gaga
60353. I don’t like Los Angeles. The people are awful and terribly shallow, and everybody wants to be famous but nobody wants to play the game. I’m from New York. I will kill to get what I need. – Lady Gaga
60354. I am so excited to extend myself behind the scenes as a designer and to – as my father puts it – finally have a real job. – Lady Gaga
60355. Every bit of me is devoted to love and art. And I aspire to try to be a teacher to my young fans who feel just like I felt when I was younger. I just felt like a freak. I guess what I’m trying to say is I’m trying to liberate them, I want to free them of their fears and make them feel that they can make their own space in the world. – Lady Gaga
60356. ‘Born this Way’ is about being yourself, and loving who you are and being proud. – Lady Gaga
60357. A record deal doesn’t make you an artist; you make yourself an artist. – Lady Gaga
60358. So there’s nothing more provocative than taking a genre that everybody who’s cool hates – and then making it cool. – Lady Gaga
60359. I think what made it difficult for people to get, and still makes it difficult for people to get, is the theatrical nature of the work and the fact that, my music doesn’t exist without the performance-art element. – Lady Gaga
60360. Lady Gaga is my name. If you know me, and you call me Stefani, you don’t really know me at all. – Lady Gaga
60361. I could have gone on flying through space forever. – Yuri Gagarin
60362. I see Earth! It is so beautiful! – Yuri Gagarin
60363. I became active in politics because I saw the possibility, if we all sat back and did nothing, of a world in which there would no longer be any stages for actors to act on. – Helen Gahagan
60364. I never felt I left the stage. – Helen Gahagan
60365. I realized that public affairs were also my affairs. – Helen Gahagan
60366. In trying to make something new, half the undertaking lies in discovering whether it can be done. Once it has been established that it can, duplication is inevitable. – Helen Gahagan
60367. When a marriage works, nothing on earth can take its place. – Helen Gahagan
60368. The current total of countries in the world with First Amendments is one. You have guaranteed freedom of speech. Other countries don’t have that. – Neil Gaiman
60369. I’m one of those writers who tends to be really good at making outlines and sticking to them. I’m very good at doing that, but I don’t like it. It sort of takes a lot of the fun out. – Neil Gaiman
60370. In many ways, it was much, much harder to get the first book contract. The hardest thing probably overall has been learning not to trust people, publicists and so forth, implicitly. – Neil Gaiman
60371. Is the chemical aftertaste the reason why people eat hot dogs, or is it some kind of bonus? – Neil Gaiman
60372. It has always been the prerogative of children and half-wits to point out that the emperor has no clothes. But the half-wit remains a half-wit, and the emperor remains an emperor. – Neil Gaiman
60373. It is a fool’s prerogative to utter truths that no one else will speak. – Neil Gaiman
60374. Life – and I don’t suppose I’m the first to make this comparison – is a disease: sexually transmitted, and invariably fatal. – Neil Gaiman
60375. Partly because I get such astonishingly nice fans. – Neil Gaiman
60376. Rock and roll stars have it much better than writers when they’re on a tour. – Neil Gaiman
60377. I’m a fairly undisciplined writer. – Neil Gaiman
60378. So the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund is out there preserving and fighting for, and sometimes winning and sometimes losing, the fight for First Amendment rights in comics and, more generally, for freedom of speech. – Neil Gaiman
60379. I lost some time once. It’s always in the last place you look for it. – Neil Gaiman
60380. The world always seems brighter when you’ve just made something that wasn’t there before. – Neil Gaiman
60381. So I went out and bought myself a copy of the Writer and Artist Yearbook, bought lots of magazines and got on the phone and talked to editors about ideas for stories. Pretty soon I found myself hired to do interviews and articles and went off and did them. – Neil Gaiman
60382. I’ll agonize over sentences. Mostly because you’re trying to create specific effects with sentences, and because there are a number of different voices in the book. – Neil Gaiman
60383. I was the kind of kid whose parents would drop him off at the local town library on their way to work, and I’d go and work my way through the children’s area. – Neil Gaiman
60384. I was always so relieved that anyone wants to publish anything I’ve written. – Neil Gaiman
60385. There’s a glorious sense of freedom in comedy, just allowing myself to tell jokes, allowing myself to interrupt myself and tell old African folk stories that I made up – or didn’t – and Jamaican stories. – Neil Gaiman
60386. I started writing when I was about 20, 21 maybe. – Neil Gaiman
60387. I think of myself as a very lazy author. – Neil Gaiman
60388. I don’t know if proud is the right word, but I am somebody who does not, on the whole, have the highest regard for my own stuff in that when I look all I get to see are the flaws. – Neil Gaiman
60389. Great, big, serious novels always get awards. If it’s a battle between a great, big, serious novel and a funny novel, the funny novel is doomed. – Neil Gaiman
60390. Because, if one is writing novels today, concentrating on the beauty of the prose is right up there with concentrating on your semi-colons, for wasted effort. – Neil Gaiman
60391. As far as I’m concerned, the entire reason for becoming a writer is not having to get up in the morning. – Neil Gaiman
60392. And there never was an apple, in Adam’s opinion, that wasn’t worth the trouble you got into for eating it. – Neil Gaiman
60393. American Gods is about 200,000 words long, and I’m sure there are words that are simply in there ’cause I like them. I know I couldn’t justify each and every one of them. – Neil Gaiman
60394. Also, I’ve already won all the awards. – Neil Gaiman
60395. A nice, easy place for freedom of speech to be eroded is comics, because comics are a natural target whenever an election comes up. – Neil Gaiman
60396. I wanted to write something that would be a comedy in the sense of making people feel happier when they finish it than they did when began it. – Neil Gaiman
60397. I loved writing a book in which, in some ways, it’s very, very classical, and in some ways I’m breaking lots of rules about what you can do and what you can’t do. – Neil Gaiman
60398. Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and adventures are the shadow truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes and forgotten. – Neil Gaiman
60399. You get ideas from daydreaming. You get ideas from being bored. You get ideas all the time. The only difference between writers and other people is we notice when we’re doing it. – Neil Gaiman
60400. This is a work of fiction. All the characters in it, human and otherwise, are imaginary, excepting only certain of the fairy folk, whom it might be unwise to offend by casting doubts on their existence. Or lack thereof. – Neil Gaiman
60401. We all not only could know everything. We do. We just tell ourselves we don’t to make it all bearable. – Neil Gaiman
60402. Question everything. Every stripe, every star, every word spoken. Everything. – Ernest Gaines
60403. Sometimes you got to hurt something to help something. Sometimes you have to plow under one thing in order for something else to grow. – Ernest Gaines
60404. The mark of fear is not easily removed. – Ernest Gaines
60405. There will always be men struggling to change, and there will always be those who are controlled by the past. – Ernest Gaines
60406. Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands? – Ernest Gaines
60407. Words mean nothing. Action is the only thing. Doing. That’s the only thing. – Ernest Gaines
60408. We are all going to Heaven, and Vandyke is of the company. – Thomas Gainsborough
60409. You think that being a girl is degrading, but secretly, you’d love to know what it’s like, wouldn’t you? – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60410. You don’t even need the director’s judgement. It’s too much. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60411. When you love someone, you don’t want them to suffer at all. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60412. I’m a very shy person towards my intimacy and private life. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60413. I’m desperate to work again. I’ve often had those periods, but two years was the longest. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60414. In France, you’re with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It’s more like a family. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60415. It’s more than a job. It’s very personal, so when you’re hurt, you’re really hurt inside. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60416. It’s nice that we have all these different films. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60417. Letting go of things and not being afraid of being ridiculous or over the top – I think that’s the main thing for me to work on. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60418. The character is close to me, except that I haven’t lived through those situations, so it’s not completely me. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60419. Wanting to do it was much more powerful than the fright. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60420. There were always questions about my parents; I got so fed up with that. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60421. I went on television and I wouldn’t say a word; I feel so stupid when I watch them again. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60422. The English was really my mother, it was never me. Being the daughter of my father, I always felt very French. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60423. The more sincere I could be, the better it would be for the film. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60424. Everyone gets the feeling that they know you and they know your life, and I felt really embarrassed by that. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60425. The more you turn down things, the more difficult it becomes to feel that the next one will be right. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60426. I wasn’t getting the responses I hoped for. You can’t protect yourself from other judgments. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60427. At the beginning it wasn’t to do with the work, it was more the experience. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60428. Girls can wear jeans, cut their hair short, wear shirts and boots, ’cause it’s okay to be a boy, but for a boy to look like a girl is degrading. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60429. I couldn’t do anything else, I enjoy it so much. But I find it tough. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60430. I found it very difficult to explain to someone why you did a film. It’s not like having a conversation. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60431. I hated seeing myself on screen. I was full of complexes. I hated my face for a very, very long time. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60432. I still find it hard to push my own limits. I know where my limits are and that I always have to push myself. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60433. I thought people would ask me really personal questions because I’ve shown more of myself, but it’s a comedy, and people understand that it’s a game we play. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60434. I was putting all those pressures on myself. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60435. I used to hate being recognised. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60436. I hope I’ll consider my next part, having learnt from this one. – Charlotte Gainsbourg
60437. Ugliness is in a way superior to beauty because it lasts. – Serge Gainsbourg
60438. Happiness is realizing that nothing is too important. – Antonio Gala
60439. There’s something about the Foreign Service that takes the guts out of people. – Evan G. Galbraith
60440. The State Department desperately needs to be vigorously harnessed. It has too big a role to play in the formulation of foreign policy, and foreign policy is too important to be left up to foreign service officers. – Evan G. Galbraith
60441. The process by which banks create money is so simple that the mind is repelled. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60442. The only function of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60443. There is something wonderful in seeing a wrong-headed majority assailed by truth. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60444. The salary of the chief executive of a large corporation is not a market award for achievement. It is frequently in the nature of a warm personal gesture by the individual to himself. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60445. There are few ironclad rules of diplomacy but to one there is no exception. When an official reports that talks were useful, it can safely be concluded that nothing was accomplished. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60446. There are times in politics when you must be on the right side and lose. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60447. There is certainly no absolute standard of beauty. That precisely is what makes its pursuit so interesting. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60448. There’s a certain part of the contented majority who love anybody who is worth a billion dollars. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60449. Total physical and mental inertia are highly agreeable, much more so than we allow ourselves to imagine. A beach not only permits such inertia but enforces it, thus neatly eliminating all problems of guilt. It is now the only place in our overly active world that does. – John Kenneth Galbraith
60450. In all life one should comfort the afflicted, but verily, also, one should afflict the comfortable, and especially when they are comfortably, contentedly, even happily wrong. – John Kenneth Galbraith

60482. It would be foolish to suggest that government is a good custodian of aesthetic goals. But, there is no alternative to the state. – John Kenneth Galbraith

60504. I am astonished each time I come to the U.S. by the ignorance of a high percentage of the population, which knows almost nothing about Latin America or about the world. It’s quite blind and deaf to anything that may happen outside the frontiers of the U.S. – Eduardo Galeano
60505. The walls are the publishers of the poor. – Eduardo Galeano
60506. You don’t have to be a political genius to sniff the smell of blood in the water. – Rich Galen

60531. I wish I could go to the school where my close friends go, but I obviously can’t. The good thing is, they’re really good about inviting me to all the football games and all that stuff. So I end up having an adopted team spirit for a school I don’t go to. – David Gallagher
60532. I’m more into beats than rhymes. I’m a huge fan of anything touched by the Neptunes. Dancing is kind of my thing. I go out with my friends as often as I can on the weekends, and I’m always drawn to girls with rhythm. – David Gallagher

60540. She can’t even chew gum and walk in a straight line, let alone write a book. – Liam Gallagher
60541. It’s about the music and that’s it. I’m not an entertainer. But I do entertain people, see what I mean? – Liam Gallagher
60542. I refuse to dance. And I can’t dance anyway. I’m not in a band for that. – Liam Gallagher
60543. I need them, need them to give me a kick up the arse. Otherwise I’d just be sat-in getting fat, counting me money. It’s good people living on your doorstep and looking through your bins. Gives you energy. – Liam Gallagher
60544. Everyone knows that if you’ve got a brother, you’re going to fight. – Liam Gallagher
60545. Discipline? I don’t know the meaning of the word. – Liam Gallagher
60546. Americans want grungy people, stabbing themselves in the head on stage. They get a bright bunch like us, with deodorant on, they don’t get it. – Liam Gallagher
60547. Lennon was right. And we are bigger than Jesus. We will be as big as the Beatles, if not bigger. – Liam Gallagher
60548. Charter schools have a far higher proportion of teachers who are not certified. – Maggie Gallagher

60557. Whatever their defects, Christian fundamentalists have lived peacefully among us in America for several hundred years. – Maggie Gallagher
60558. To imply that religious believers have no right to engage moral questions in the public square or at the ballot is simply to establish a Reichian secularism as our state faith. – Maggie Gallagher
60559. The tragedy of the civil rights movement is that just as it achieved the beginning of the end of racial segregation, white educated elites became swept up in the glamour of the sexual revolution. – Maggie Gallagher

60561. The European Union, which is not directly responsible to voters, provides an irresistible opportunity for European elites to seize power in order to impose their own vision on a newly socially regimented Europe. – Maggie Gallagher
60562. Same-sex marriage is not the future. – Maggie Gallagher
60563. Romantic lovers require from each other at least the facade of reason: We desire to be what romantic love makes us appear in the other’s eyes. We want to imagine we are deserving of the love we inspire. – Maggie Gallagher
60564. For faithful Catholics, communion is not just a nice ritual: It is the body and blood of Jesus Christ, and the ultimate sign of our willingness to be incorporated into the church. – Maggie Gallagher
60565. Europe, which gave us the idea of same-sex marriage, is a dying society, with birthrates 50 percent below replacement. – Maggie Gallagher
60566. Mothers are the people who love us for no good reason. And those of us who are mothers know it’s the most exquisite love of all. – Maggie Gallagher
60567. I am just an ordinary Catholic. – Maggie Gallagher
60568. I regret the whole worlds that will never come into existence, the children, the grandchildren, all the human possibilities that never were and never will be. – Maggie Gallagher
60569. Meanwhile, parents, students and teachers all report higher satisfaction with charter schools. People like them. They cost less money. They raise the academic achievement of poor kids. Go ahead, get a little enthused. – Maggie Gallagher
60570. Democratic forms of government are vulnerable to mass prejudice, the so-called tyranny of the majority. – Maggie Gallagher
60571. In Europe, it appears that in the name of democracy, elites are pursuing an autocratic, centralized power, seeking economic control and social regimentation. – Maggie Gallagher
60572. Marketers are out there trying to figure out how to get your money out of your child. – Maggie Gallagher
60573. In the ’60s, parents were told to let their teens rebel, explore their boundaries. Increasingly the same message is being given to the parents of tweens. – Maggie Gallagher
60574. In today’s world, marketers reach inside the home and attempt to figure out not what’s good for your daughter, because that is not their business, but what deep desires they can manipulate, stimulate and ostensibly satisfy in order to produce cold, hard cash. – Maggie Gallagher
60575. I would say Politically Incorrect is my favourite right now. – Megan Gallagher
60576. There’s a big difference between sanity and insanity. – Megan Gallagher

60579. I started acting in my parents living room when I was five years old. – Megan Gallagher
60580. I have an assistant in Vancouver to help me with my life. – Megan Gallagher
60581. As for acting, I took drama lessons when I was in high school. – Megan Gallagher
60582. And generally the shows I’m in fail really big. – Megan Gallagher
60583. I was willing to do anything that Chris Carter wrote. – Megan Gallagher
60584. With every song that I write, I compare it to the Beatles. The thing is, they only got there before me. If I’d been born at the same time as John Lennon, I’d have been up there. – Noel Gallagher
60585. We’re not arrogant, we just believe we’re the best band in the world. – Noel Gallagher
60586. If I were in the Beatles, I’d be a good George Harrison. – Noel Gallagher
60587. I’ve always been into guitars… we want to put keyboards on, but keyboard players don’t look cool onstage, they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player, apart from Elton John. – Noel Gallagher
60588. I’m a happy-go-lucky character. I’m not that miserable. But I can never let anyone into my world. – Noel Gallagher
60589. Americans are crazy. They have this fascination with throwing their shoes on stage. I’ve been to a lot of shows in me life, some good and some bad. But I was never moved to take off me shoes and throw it at the lead singer. – Noel Gallagher
60590. I’m in the facial-hair phase of my career. – Paul Gallagher
60591. I thought you were supposed to be flying this thing, not pleasuring it. – Paul Gallagher
60592. My eyebrows make a more profound impact on other people than they do on me. I just let ’em grow. – Peter Gallagher
60593. In an attempt to amuse my friends and family, I would do impressions of Dean Martin, singing Everybody Loves Somebody. I secretly really enjoyed singing the song. – Peter Gallagher
60594. No matter what the role, you’re trying to do the impossible – make a living in show business. – Peter Gallagher
60595. You can only be stupid when you’re young. – Peter Gallagher
60596. Whether it’s on top of a phone booth or a $200 million soundstage, it’s about stories. – Peter Gallagher
60597. When I came up, guys like Nicholson and DeNiro were held in highest regard. – Peter Gallagher
60598. Two women? God, man. Well, I’m still living. So clearly I must’ve gotten away with it, when I did do it. But I don’t think it’s time to blow my cover now. – Peter Gallagher
60599. To stay on the map you’ve got to keep showing up. – Peter Gallagher
60600. Through every moment on stage for the first time, I felt like I was finally right where I belonged. – Peter Gallagher
60601. My family were broadminded enough to support me when I wanted to pursue a life in the theatre. – Peter Gallagher
60602. I was probably 11 by the time I saw a movie. – Peter Gallagher
60603. I was about to get a degree in economics when I accepted that I’d be a lousy businessman, and if I didn’t give acting a try I’d regret it for the rest of my life. – Peter Gallagher
60604. I made my Broadway debut in the revival of Hair and followed it up with the bus and truck tour of Grease. – Peter Gallagher
60605. I love playing a dad. It’s hard to find family dramas that are genuinely funny. – Peter Gallagher
60606. I feel like I won the Lotto, as far as that show’s concerned. – Peter Gallagher
60607. I always go back to theatre. It’s probably where I’ll draw my last breath. – Peter Gallagher
60608. By year three, you get nicer, bigger trailers. – Peter Gallagher
60609. Around 5th and 6th grade I thought Dean Martin was the coolest guy in the world; he was a great singer, had his own television show and acted in movies. – Peter Gallagher
60610. There have been makeup artists who’ve asked if my eyebrows are real. – Peter Gallagher
60611. A good title is the title of a successful book. – Robert C. Gallagher

60615. If we would have had the 262 at our disposal – even with all the delays – if we could have had in ’44, ah, let’s say three hundred operational, that day we could have stopped the American daytime bombing offensive, that’s for sure. – Adolf Galland
60616. When I was fired from my post as General of the Fighter Arm, I was to give proof that this jet was a superior fighter. And that’s when we did it. I think we did it. – Adolf Galland
60617. We have built a total of about 1250 of this aircraft, but only fifty were allowed to be used as fighters – as interceptors. And out of this fifty, there were never more than 25 operational. So we had only a very, very few. – Adolf Galland
60618. We had at our disposal the first operational jet, which superseded by at least 150 knots the fastest American and English fighters. This was a unique situation. – Adolf Galland
60619. This would only come if you have a revolutionary change in technology like the jet brought about. – Adolf Galland
60620. The throttles could only move very, very slowly, always watching the temperature, always watching. And even in throttling back, you could bust it, even being very careful. – Adolf Galland
60621. Of course, the outcome of the war would not have been changed. The war was lost perhaps, when it was started. At least it was lost in the winter of ’42, in Russia. – Adolf Galland
60622. Nine g’s is good, if the pilot can stand it. We couldn’t stand it. Not in the airplanes of World War II. – Adolf Galland
60623. It’s unbelievable what one squadron of twelve aircraft did to tip the balance. – Adolf Galland
60624. I would like to mention that I have flown the 262 first in May ’43. At this time, the aircraft was completely secret. I first knew of the existence of this aircraft only early in ’42 – even in my position. This aircraft didn’t have any priority in design or production. – Adolf Galland
60625. I made a written report which is still today in existence. I have a photocopy of it, and I am saying that in production this aircraft could perhaps substitute for three propeller- driven aircraft of the best existing type. This was my impression. – Adolf Galland
60626. I had to inspect all fighter units in Russia, Africa, Sicily, France, and Norway. I had to be everywhere. – Adolf Galland
60627. I could not claim them because I was not supposed to be flying in combat. – Adolf Galland
60628. And most of these pilots were lost during the first five flights. – Adolf Galland
60629. According to Goering and the Luftwaffe High Command, they were supposed to be the fighter elite. – Adolf Galland
60630. Many pilots of the time were the opinion that a fighter pilot in a closed cockpit was an impossible thing, because you should smell the enemy. You could smell them because of the oil they were burning. – Adolf Galland
60631. I began to ration my writing, for fear I would dream through life as my father had done. I was afraid I had inherited a poisoned gene from him, a vocation without a gift. – Mavis Gallant
60632. The whole of the Bill is a declaration of the right of the people at large or considered as individuals… It establishes some rights of the individual as unalienable and which consequently, no majority has a right to deprive them of. – Albert Gallatin
60633. I am not wrong in the belief that its public funds are more secure than those of all the European powers. – Albert Gallatin
60634. Since achieving their independence in 1992, the people of Croatia have built a democratic society based on the rule of law, respect for human rights, and a free market economy. – Elton Gallegly
60635. You took care of your horse, and your horse took care of you. – Elton Gallegly
60636. While a strong presence on our southern border is imperative, the border cannot be secured unless we enforce our internal laws and stop ignoring the open complicity of U.S. companies and foreign nations to promote illegal activities. – Elton Gallegly
60637. The fifth amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees that no private property shall be taken for a public use without the payment of just compensation. – Elton Gallegly
60638. President Reagan is now at rest. We mourn his passing, but we are grateful for the gifts he gave us: a safer world, strong economic base, and a renewed belief in America’s greatness. – Elton Gallegly
60639. President Reagan achieved such successes because when you sat in a room with him, there could be over 1,000 people in the room, yet you felt like there was only the two of you, and his wonderful wit would put you at ease. That was a tremendous gift. – Elton Gallegly
60640. More than 65,000 horses were slaughtered in the United States in 2004, a 50 percent increase since 2002. – Elton Gallegly
60641. It’s been argued that of all the animals humans have domesticated, the horse is the most important to our history. For thousands of years, horses were our most reliable mode of transportation. – Elton Gallegly
60642. It is our hope that in future discussions with the Mexican government, you will encourage Mexico to do its part to address illegal immigration rather than encourage their citizens to illegally enter the U.S. – Elton Gallegly
60643. Instead, California is one of only 10 states that provides in-state college and university tuition to illegal immigrants. That’s grossly unfair to a legal high school student who moves out of California for a year, then returns to attend college. – Elton Gallegly
60644. Congress has greatly tightened the loopholes terrorists can use to harm Americans. We need to do more. We need controls immediately on what forms of ID are adequate to board planes and enter secure sites. – Elton Gallegly
60645. We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws. – Elton Gallegly
60646. In addition, California spends nearly $1 billion a year in Medi-Cal services for an average of 780,000 illegal immigrants a month, over and above emergency health services. – Elton Gallegly
60647. As a former mayor, I know that local governments must have control over land use decisions. – Elton Gallegly
60648. Consular cards are easily obtained with no proof of true identity and are easily forged. – Elton Gallegly
60649. Consular cards were not designed to be identification and no treaty recognizes them as such. Legal travelers, visitors and long-term residents carried passports, visas or green cards for that purpose. – Elton Gallegly
60650. Consular offices make no attempt to determine whether the person obtaining the card is legally in the United States. In fact, the only people who need these cards are illegal immigrants, criminals and terrorists. Consular cards also are easily forged. – Elton Gallegly
60651. Every unskilled illegal immigrant who enters the United States for work drives up healthcare costs for every American. And, every illegal immigrant we turn a blind eye toward weakens the rule of law our country is founded on. – Elton Gallegly
60652. Horsemeat in many European and Asian countries is consumed as a delicacy. – Elton Gallegly
60653. Hospitals are closing across the country due to the burden of illegal immigration, college students find that summer jobs have dried up due to illegal immigration, and wages across the board are depressed by the overwhelming influx of cheap and illegal labor. – Elton Gallegly
60654. I have great respect for President Bush, Secretary Powell and Secretary Ridge. – Elton Gallegly
60655. Among other things, the Real ID Act sets minimum security criteria that states would have to meet to have their driver’s licenses accepted as identification to board a commercial flight or enter federal facilities. – Elton Gallegly
60656. I don’t care about money. I really don’t care. I just want to do what I do. – John Galliano
60657. But I’m not an artist. Maybe an artist with a small a. – John Galliano
60658. Sure, I’d like to be like the House of Chanel. – John Galliano
60659. I don’t love dolls. I love women. I love their bodies. – John Galliano
60660. I love New York. But the energy is so intense. – John Galliano
60661. I’m an accomplice to helping women get what they want. – John Galliano
60662. Men don’t want another man to look at their woman because they don’t know how to handle it. – John Galliano
60663. My dresses are very reasonably priced, for dresses that are cut on the body. – John Galliano
60664. The problem is with men. I know I shouldn’t say this, but they’ve shrouded and hidden women to hide their incompetence. – John Galliano
