75237. Only the ideas that we really live have any value. – Hermann Hesse
75238. There’s no reality except the one contained within us. That’s why so many people live an unreal life. They take images outside them for reality and never allow the world within them to assert itself. – Hermann Hesse
75239. You can spend a lifetime, and, if you’re honest with yourself, never once was your work perfect. – Charlton Heston
75240. And their pals vote for their stuff when they’re not on the panel, and it just keeps going that way. And they tend to be very fringe artists, so anything before the 20th century is not worth considering. This is out of date. – Charlton Heston
75241. You cut their money back, for one thing… I go back a long way with the NEA. – Charlton Heston
75242. Well, we have certainly produced great art before we did this. In my view, there are any number of areas of government which tax money should not be spent. – Charlton Heston
75243. Undeniably the American art form, too. And yet more and more, we see films made that diminish the American experience and example. And sometimes trash it completely. – Charlton Heston
75244. To the world, you are America. – Charlton Heston
75245. The trouble with movies as a business is that it’s an art, and the trouble with movies as art is that it’s a business. – Charlton Heston
75246. The big studio era is from the coming of sound until 1950, until I came in… I came in at a crux in film, which was the end of the studio era and the rise of filmmaking. – Charlton Heston
75247. Shakespeare is the outstanding example of how that can be done. In all of Shakespeare’s plays, no matter what tragic events occur, no matter what rises and falls, we return to stability in the end. – Charlton Heston
75248. It’s been quite a ride. I loved every minute of it. – Charlton Heston
75249. In recent years, anyone in the government, certainly anyone in the FBI or the CIA, or recently, in again, Clint’s film, In the Line of Fire, the main bad guy is the chief advisor to the president. – Charlton Heston
75250. I’ve played three presidents, three saints and two geniuses – and that’s probably enough for any man. – Charlton Heston
75251. As an artist, I understand that, and I value the creative input of the artist. – Charlton Heston
75252. Dirty Harry, for example. Clint Eastwood was not a rogue cop. He was a maverick cop, but he was a good guy. – Charlton Heston
75253. Society mends its wounds. And that’s invariably true in all the tragedies, in the comedies as well. And certainly in the histories. – Charlton Heston

75255. I choose to live, not just exist. – James Hetfield
75256. We do this basically for ourselves. People appreciate it, which is cool, but I think they appreciate that we’re doing it for ourselves. We’re doing it our way, and how people like it is not up to us. We like it. – James Hetfield
75257. Sleep my friend, and you will see that dream is my reality. – James Hetfield

75273. He can thread a needle with a well-turned phrase. – Don Hewitt
75274. Confrontation is not a dirty word. Sometimes it’s the best kind of journalism as long you don’t confront people just for the sake of a confrontation. – Don Hewitt
75275. I can tell you categorically that we at 60 Minutes did not pay Michael Jackson one cent. – Don Hewitt
75276. I plan to die at my desk. – Don Hewitt
75277. Let’s give the conventions back to the politicians. If we think there’s any news, we can tack it on afterward as commentary. But the conventions should be their show, not ours. – Don Hewitt
75278. You know that clicker? It’s going to change the world more than any other thing. – Don Hewitt
75279. I like cats. I used to have a lot of cats, but I don’t anymore, now I just have a dog. It does take a certain temperament to have a cat, as they do have certain personalities. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75280. I’d never watch a horror film, but after I found out I was going to be in one, I watched, like, four of them, including The Shining, I was terrified – I couldn’t sleep for days. But I wanted to get myself used to things I was going to see on the set. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75281. I don’t want to ever, ever do something in life that isn’t fun. Ever. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75282. When I came to Los Angeles, it was the first time that I ever felt like I belong somewhere. Not because it was wacky, but because people here understood what I felt like to perform, and there were other kids my age who wanted to do it. I didn’t get looked at as God, you freak. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75283. I love to take care of people, so I think I’d be a good vet. I always wanted to be a vet when I was little. – Jennifer Love Hewitt

75285. I think we are ready to know that there are going to be people who are ready to save the world, who come out when you’re in trouble and make sure that you’re okay. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75286. I do love Italian food. Any kind of pasta or pizza. My new pig out food is Indian food. I eat Indian food like three times a week. It’s so good. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75287. I’m a hopeless romantic, and very much the person in a relationship to go: If things are going well, I’ll buy the flowers, remember the dates of things, plan fun nights out. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75288. I’m a hopeless romantic. It’s disgusting. It really is. I’ve seen ‘While You Were Sleeping’, like, twenty times, and I still believe in the whole Prince Charming thing. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75289. There’s a difference between wanting to be respected and being a strong female and being known for being able to do things, but still very much wanting guys to open the door, wanting them to ask us out, still bringing flowers and stuff like that. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75290. You are the only person who can sell you, so you do spend a lot of time in your job by yourself everyday. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75291. I would just love once to be called sexy. Just because it would make me something other than cute. – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75292. I’ve literally, in my entire life I’ve had two guys come up to me and ask me out. Other than that I have had to go and try to like spend time with them, or sort of start the conversation, basically like spell it out in a Sharpie, like, you know? – Jennifer Love Hewitt
75293. You always love playing in finals at any tournament. The grand slams and stuff like that are obviously the priorities but any titles go on your record. – Lleyton Hewitt
75294. We just have to be crystal clear that if we were to abandon all the reforms made over some very painful years in the Labour party, we would be consigned back to opposition. – Patricia Hewitt
75295. A modern health and social care system has to be completely focussed on the needs of its users. – Patricia Hewitt
75296. You’ve got to respond to that and of course thinking through the role of a left party in the modern world, in the modern economy and society and having a policy response to that. – Patricia Hewitt
75297. You don’t repair that relationship by sitting down and talking about trust or making promises. Actually, what rebuilds it is living it and doing things differently – and I think that is what is going to make the difference. – Patricia Hewitt
75298. Well I think all I would say on that is, when we were in opposition in Britain and Hawke and then Keating were in power here, Labor was in power here, we learnt a huge amount from the ALP’s experience here. – Patricia Hewitt
75299. But clearly at the same time you’ve got to get out there and connect with voters and actually respond to the needs, the frustrations, whatever problems their now saying are not being adequately solved. – Patricia Hewitt
75300. I have very real concerns about the civil liberties implications of ultimately requiring every resident to submit themselves for compulsory fingerprinting or some other biometric test. – Patricia Hewitt
75301. And some of what we’re doing in Government even now, some of the welfare reform programs that are helping lone mothers come into work are based on things that were very new under the Labour Government in the eighties. – Patricia Hewitt
75302. As patients and consumers, we are better informed today about our health care than any previous generation. – Patricia Hewitt
75303. Certainly we know from our own experience how very difficult it is when you’ve lost an election that perhaps a lot of people were expecting you to win. – Patricia Hewitt
75304. We’re seeing quite a lot of people who really would like a return to class-based politics. – Patricia Hewitt
75305. And I hope very much that the ALP will become increasingly engaged in the international discussions that are taking place amongst centre-left parties generally. – Patricia Hewitt
75306. I think he was absolutely right not to go to UN last week… First things first – that is, values and people here in their local communities, and remembering all politics is local, and trusting people more. – Patricia Hewitt
75307. People are not perfect… very often the relationships that are strongest are those where people have worked through big crises, but they’ve had to work through them. So the challenge to us is to work through that. – Patricia Hewitt
75308. So there clearly is a sense in which the Labour Party here, certainly at State level is reaching out and connecting with people and reflecting the aspirations and needs of, you know the mass of ordinary Australians. – Patricia Hewitt
75309. The 2 million people who work in the NHS and social care are also themselves patients and users. I know they all want to treat patients and users the way they and their families would want to be treated and that is the purpose of our reforms. – Patricia Hewitt
75310. The accusation that we’ve lost our soul resonates with a very modern concern about authenticity. – Patricia Hewitt
75311. And it seems to me in that experience may lie at least some of the clues for policy development perhaps constitutional changes as well that Labour will need to make at the national level too. – Patricia Hewitt
75312. But getting your party structure right may also be a precondition for getting your policies right. – Patricia Hewitt
75313. Never try to take a fortified hill, especially if the Army on top is bigger than you are. – William Reddington Hewlett
75314. Men and women want to do a good job, and if they are provided the proper environment, they will do so. – William Reddington Hewlett
75315. All business proceeds on beliefs, or judgments of probabilities, and not on certainties. – William Reddington Hewlett
75316. I was just absolutely exhausted. The media said I’ve been treated for a nervous breakdown. All that stuff I just took as people taking the opportunity when you’re down to give you a kick. – John Hewson
75317. Hussein has a strategy. I’m sure he’ll implement that strategy, and it would be to our detriment. We’re embarking on an exercise about which we know nothing. – John Hewson
75318. I got a bit enamoured with bigger houses and things like that. – John Hewson
75319. I had this habit of an academic of answering the question. I should have fobbed it off. – John Hewson
75320. I think the Prime Minister has embarked on a journey and he has no idea where he’s taking us. – John Hewson
75321. I’m not tied to any particular political line. – John Hewson
75322. I was not a politician. – John Hewson
75323. I’ve been arguing this for months. This is not our war. This is not a war we should be in. Australia’s better spending its time negotiating with North Korea. – John Hewson
75324. Silence is best. – John Hewson
75325. The only person you resent is yourself. – John Hewson
75326. The reality is, it will be a significant conflict going for many, many months, if not longer. Saddam Hussein is not a fool. He hasn’t been sitting there waiting to get shot for 13 years. – John Hewson
75327. To make us a terrorist target in a region that is full of terrorism is dumb and unforgiveable. – John Hewson
75328. To send our troops, our ships, our planes to this war is ridiculous. – John Hewson
75329. Tony Blair will probably get thrown out by his party. – John Hewson
75330. We’ve lost sight of our role in the region and our view of our colleagues in the region. – John Hewson
75331. I never wanted to separate from either wife. It was accumulated stress. We had virtually no time to ourselves. After politics we were both working very hard to establish new careers. – John Hewson
75332. It’s not just the war itself. It’s what you do after the war and what structure you put in place and how you make that structure work. – John Hewson
75333. Judging from the letters I’ve received from obviously feeble-minded persons who wish I would write another These Old Shades, it ought to sell like hot cakes. – Georgette Heyer
75334. She bowed her head, clasping her hands tightly before her upon the arm of his chair, for her heart yearned towards him, yet could not reach him, and it made her throat ache with unhappiness to meet that look of his that rested on her face without seeing it. – Georgette Heyer
75335. In my experience, it is rarer to find a really happy person in a circle of millionaires than among vagabonds. – Thor Heyerdahl
75336. One learns more from listening than speaking.And both the wind and the people who continue to live close to nature still have much to tell us which we cannot hear within university walls. – Thor Heyerdahl
75337. A civilized nation can have no enemies, and one cannot draw a line across a map, a line that doesn’t even exist in nature and say that the ugly enemy lives on the one side, and good friends live on the other. – Thor Heyerdahl
75338. But if we begin thinking about the world being over 100 million years old, then it’s absolutely by chance that you and I are sitting here alive today, while all the others are dead or have never been born. – Thor Heyerdahl
75339. We must wake up to the insane reality of our time. We are all irresponsible, unless we demand from the responsible decision makers that modern armaments must no longer be made available to people whose former battle axes and swords our ancestors condemned. – Thor Heyerdahl
75340. We have always been taught that navigation is the result of civilization, but modern archeology has demonstrated very clearly that this is not so. – Thor Heyerdahl
75341. It is also rarer to find happiness in a man surrounded by the miracles of technology than among people living in the desert of the jungle and who by the standards set by our society would be considered destitute and out of touch. – Thor Heyerdahl
75342. Progress is man’s ability to complicate simplicity. – Thor Heyerdahl
75343. Those who have experienced the most, have suffered so much that they have ceased to hate. Hate is more for those with a slightly guilty conscience, and who by chewing on old hate in times of peace wish to demonstrate how great they were during the war. – Thor Heyerdahl
75344. I was in uniform for four years, and I know that heroism doesn’t occur from taking orders, but rather from people who through their own willpower and strength are willing to sacrifice their lives for an idea. – Thor Heyerdahl
75345. I have never been able to grasp the meaning of time. I don’t believe it exists. I’ve felt this again and again, when alone and out in nature. On such occasions, time does not exist. Nor does the future exist. – Thor Heyerdahl
75346. I don’t believe in war as a solution to any kind of conflict, nor do I believe in heroism on the battlefield because I have never seen any. – Thor Heyerdahl
75347. I also believe that when one dies, one may wake up to the reality that proves that time does not exist. – Thor Heyerdahl
75348. For every minute, the future is becoming the past. – Thor Heyerdahl
75349. Circumstances cause us to act the way we do. We should always bear this in mind before judging the actions of others. I realized this from the start during World War II. – Thor Heyerdahl
75350. Civilization grew in the beginning from the minute that we had communication – particularly communication by sea that enabled people to get inspiration and ideas from each other and to exchange basic raw materials. – Thor Heyerdahl
75351. Therefore, I feel convinced that any political picture can be changed to suit the needs of the powers that be. – Thor Heyerdahl
75352. Surrounded by military airplanes and warships from the world’s most civilized and developed nations, we have been denied permission by friendly governments, for reasons of security, to land anywhere, but in the tiny, and still neutral, Republic of Djibouti. – Thor Heyerdahl
75353. We’re just dealing with the kind of warp and woof of television ratings. – Andrew Heyward
75354. There is a long-standing tradition in the mainstream press of middle-of-the-road journalism that is objective and fair. I would hate to see that fall victim to a panic about the Fox effect. – Andrew Heyward
75355. Rome was not built in one day. – John Heywood
75356. If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be. – John Heywood
75357. A hard beginning maketh a good ending. – John Heywood
75358. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. – John Heywood
75359. The loss of wealth is loss of dirt, as sages in all times assert; The happy man’s without a shirt. – John Heywood

75365. The world ‘s a theatre, the earth a stage, Which God and Nature do with actors fill. – Thomas Heywood
75366. Disney’s something to be a little alarmed about. It’s not just a little theme park anymore. It’s now an ethic and outlook and strategy that goes way beyond central Florida. – Carl Hiaasen
75367. Humor can be an incredible, lacerating and effective weapon. – Carl Hiaasen
75368. The first rule of hurricane coverage is that every broadcast must begin with palm trees bending in the wind. – Carl Hiaasen
75369. They have a crystalline sense of right and wrong; it disappears when they walk out the door with their M.B.A. – Carl Hiaasen

75371. All the other chiefs and tribes have accepted the Great Law of Peace. They now live in peace with one another. – Hiawatha
75372. Every human longs for peace and love. – Hiawatha
75373. Instead of a man of peace and love, I have become a man of violence and revenge. – Hiawatha
75374. It was not the path I was to take. Because of my deeds, I will never know peace again. – Hiawatha
75375. Of everyone else who was running, and there were some very talented people, none of them had anywhere near the experience I had in hiring people, holding them accountable, creating systems for accountability. – John Hickenlooper
75376. Some day, someone will do something wrong and there will be a scandal to report in the paper. When that happens, we will address it honestly and openly and try to deal with it as quickly and as fairly as we can, and keep moving the city forward. – John Hickenlooper
75377. Is there some risk every day we walk out our front door? Every time we get in our car? Yeah. Are we materially less safe now than we were 10 years ago? Whatever delta there is, it’s very small. – John Hickenlooper
75378. I would argue that’s because we had a bunch of smart people running around here. They were coming in and working very hard and many of them had left jobs in which they made significantly more money. – John Hickenlooper
75379. The most important thing a mayor does is hire talented people to run the city. – John Hickenlooper
75380. The world has become rapidly more competitive. – John Hickenlooper
75381. There could have been more planning in New Orleans, but you look at all the devastation that happened there – have we gotten to 3,000 deaths yet? For that magnitude of a disaster, that’s not all that bad. – John Hickenlooper
75382. Today we’re dealing with metropolitan Shanghai, metropolitan New Delhi or Paris. If we’re competing at that level, our diversity, that richness of people coming from so many different backgrounds, is one of our greatest advantages. – John Hickenlooper
75383. We are, by many measures, one of the more diverse cities in the country, growing more diverse all the time, and one of the more harmonious in terms of how we live together. – John Hickenlooper
75384. We will see the increasingly rapid rate of growth we’ve already been seeing in Colorado continue. – John Hickenlooper
75385. You looked at Stanford or Harvard, or the University of Colorado, these were powerful engines just turning out people ready to create and grow businesses. – John Hickenlooper
75386. Last, in restaurants you spend a lot of time dealing with people who are very unhappy. Soup has been spilled on their laps, they’ve waited 10 minutes to get their check so they can leave, and you learn how to listen, I think, in a much more proactive way than government does. – John Hickenlooper
75387. Oftentimes, when constituencies or sectors of opinion are distinct, when they are confronted with a situation where they’re going to have to make a serious compromise, they react very negatively publicly, but they also recognize when they step back that this is right. – John Hickenlooper
75388. Given that, and assuming that we begin to adjust to issues like climate change and the greenhouse effect, Denver’s location in the center of the country becomes a tremendous advantage. – John Hickenlooper
75389. In the restaurant business, you never want to have enemies, whereas it seems that many politicians judge their success by how high their enemies are and whether they can show that they can hold their ground and give a punch for every punch they take. – John Hickenlooper
75390. Especially during the first nine months, there was so much going on with trying to hire 55 people to run the city, it was hard to imagine any honeymoon. – John Hickenlooper
75391. Denver is a city that will be far more defined by its future than its past. – John Hickenlooper
75392. For me, the risks in terms of opening that brewpub were fairly high. I put my house up as collateral, I invested the liquid money I had and two years of my time to get it over, but that’s really not much of a risk for what the potential reward was if it worked. – John Hickenlooper
75393. From my subjective position, there was no honeymoon. – John Hickenlooper
75394. America is always attracting people, from all over the earth. – John Hickenlooper
75395. I assume we will have figured out a way to efficiently utilize solar energy and tied that to an efficient way to use nuclear energy in such a way that it doesn’t pose a serious environmental issue. – John Hickenlooper
75396. I think we’re in good shape, but the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina is in some small way mitigated by the fact that we now have more people talking about it, thinking about it and working on it, so that we will be more vigilant and ready. – John Hickenlooper
75397. A mayor is a symbol and a public face of what a city bureaucracy provides its citizens. – John Hickenlooper
75398. I would argue that one of the issues which the public should be much more emphatic about with all politicians… is patronage, appointing people to high positions because they supported your campaign or helped you raise money. – John Hickenlooper
75399. If it was really successful, it was a life calling, a career I was excited about doing, so I didn’t think the overall risk was anywhere near as high as what the reward was. – John Hickenlooper
75400. And if I lost I would have gone back to 12 weeks of vacation, because I was successful enough that I was spending much more time on non-profit boards and traveling a lot. – John Hickenlooper
75401. I think it’s just a lack of ability, we’re incapable of writing hits. – Kenny Hickey
75402. Aww, come on man, I can barely handle 6 strings. – Kenny Hickey
75403. We’ve always had a dark atmosphere to our performances, so it sort of developed along those ways. – Kenny Hickey
75404. We are all atheists. – Kenny Hickey
75405. Everything is a battle with this band. – Kenny Hickey
75406. Yeah, I kinda still get nervous sometimes now. – Kenny Hickey
75407. I look at is as one single entity. I dehumanize the audience. This way, I don’t get nervous, you know? – Kenny Hickey
75408. I’m a recovering alcoholic so I should be home. – Kenny Hickey
75409. It wasn’t so much of a controlled effort to end up as part of the Goth scene. – Kenny Hickey
75410. Also there’s two sides of it, I mean, a band like us, at our level and the way we have to promote ourselves and usually radio just completely turns their back on us, at the same time I think Mp3s help promote us somewhat, spreading the word about the album and stuff. – Kenny Hickey
75411. I hate crowds of people pretending to be happy on one night of the year, where they get drunk and obnoxious by the end of the night. – Kenny Hickey
75412. That said, let me add that Joan and I never want him to be a child actor. We both feel that it takes away their childhood and puts untold pressure on children. – Dwayne Hickman

75455. There’s been a big buzz about the Charlatans in the last couple of years. I’ve heard the word Charlatans more in the last few years than I’d heard it for the previous 20 years. People would interview me for years and never even mention the Charlatans. – Dan Hicks
75456. About 10 years ago, I took some vocal lessons. I’ll bet that helped. I got a tape of exercises that the girl gave me, which I don’t do anymore, but they were good. And I don’t smoke. – Dan Hicks
75457. And it really is a good feeling to get up there and make that sound. I’m not stuck in a time warp, because I can use as many of the old songs as I want to, just the favorites. – Dan Hicks
75458. I was always looking to record, but how much I actually pursued it was another thing. The major labels weren’t that interested in me, and the smaller labels didn’t have any money to do anything. – Dan Hicks
75459. Right now, I’m thinking in terms of just having a good band, man. Having a good act for the stage. Being a good performer, you know? Connected to that is future recordings, and future tunes, that kind of stuff. – Dan Hicks
75460. It’s not about retro or modern, it’s about this note or that note, which sounds better? – Dan Hicks
75461. I haven’t been drinking for years now. Something’s got to give. I don’t mind that I’m a guy that’s stopped drinking, though this interview is making me mighty thirsty. – Dan Hicks
75462. I had different bands. I played with the Acoustic Warriors for the most part, without girl singers. It was the same kind of sound, acoustic guitar, bass, with violin and sometimes accordion, and the guys would sing, that kind of thing. – Dan Hicks
75463. I don’t dictate the solos and I don’t dictate the vocal harmonies. – Dan Hicks
75464. I guess my idea of a good audience is one that’s quiet and listens, but also that’s alive: they respond, they’re getting the jokes, they’re with me. And that’ s been happening. – Dan Hicks
75465. There’s some pictures of me playing hollow bodies, but I never last long. I always come back to the acoustic. – Dan Hicks
75466. I don’t think I’d want a revival. I’m not doing a tribute to myself. – Dan Hicks
75467. My stuff was more of a folk coffeehouse thing, with more acoustic guitar, just me doing a single, and then adding on instruments and voices, with emphasis on lyrics and singing and light kind of acoustic jazz. – Dan Hicks

75476. I delight not in spreading any thing mysterious, for I consider it all lost time; but the things that all of us can see and know if we will. – Elias Hicks

75478. Then, certainly, to be a Christian is to love God above all, and our neighbour as ourselves. – Elias Hicks
75479. And so about many other things of the same nature, we are trying to make people believe these things, and we make creeds of them; and thus we continue to do our own will, which is the ground of all sin. – Elias Hicks
75480. And yet you see the weakness of external evidence-and outward miracles; they were not sufficient to make true believers, or to make the Israelites believe that Jesus was their promised Messiah. – Elias Hicks
75481. Therefore, don’t let sinners take courage to think they will be favoured like the thief on the cross; for we see on the other side, they may be like the hardened one, and reproach death itself. – Elias Hicks
75482. To this light, then, would I recommend all, with mine own soul, – to this sure way of salvation. – Elias Hicks
75483. We have met on a solemn occasion, and in this crowded assembly there is one thing that appears important, that is, for every one of us to be still, that if any thing should he said, every one may the better hear. – Elias Hicks
75484. You know that we have a great variety of ways to gratify our own desires. – Elias Hicks
75485. There was nothing then but the revelation of the spirit-of God that could make any of the Israelites understand and believe that he was their proper Messiah. – Elias Hicks
75486. And if we are in this state, if we had an eternity of probation, what reason have we to suppose that we should profit by it – if we had ever so long a time to chose for ourselves we should pursue our own will, to gratify our carnal I desires. – Elias Hicks
75487. What encouragement the apostle holds out to us. O my friends, that we might leave all our pretensions, and come to the truth in our own hearts. – Elias Hicks
75488. We learn this by the precepts that Jesus left. He observed that the people were looking outward, and assured them that the kingdom of God cometh not with outward observation; and for this reason, that it was only to be known in man. – Elias Hicks
75489. My style is to keep folks in place who are good managers and want to win. – Tom Hicks

So with all the fish-out-of-water stuff, he’s so funny. So he does almost two jobs in a way. – Tom Hiddleston
75502. The dream is to keep surprising yourself, never mind the audience. – Tom Hiddleston
75503. Joanna points her camera at a section of society unused to having cameras pointed at it. But I don’t know about categorizing them in terms of class; I’m a bit wary of that. My dad is the son of a shipbuilder. – Tom Hiddleston
75504. I thought theater people wouldn’t see me if I hadn’t trained. I didn’t want to just be the Brideshead guy, to spend the rest of my life wearing waistcoats. I got the chance to try everything. Not just Romeos, but pimps and grandfathers and even one role as a woman in a Naomi Wallace play called Slaughter City. – Tom Hiddleston
75505. Clearly, this Sino-Japanese War of more than four years was a considerable burden on Japan’s national power and an obstacle to the maintenance of peace in the Pacific. – Tojo Hideki

75508. The object of the law of value is to elucidate the actual exchange relations of commodities. – Rudolf Hiferding
75509. The expansion of the market creates a need for enhanced and more regular supply, and this in turn impels commercial capital to acquire control of production as well. – Rudolf Hiferding
75510. Since, however, the reduced surplus value is to be distributed among them in like manner, the modification of their respective parts in the production of surplus value must find expression in a modification of the prices. – Rudolf Hiferding
75511. It is therefore utterly false to say that Marx revokes the law of value as far as individual commodities are concerned, and maintains it in force solely for the aggregate of these commodities. – Rudolf Hiferding
75512. It is obvious, moreover, that the formation of price in capitalist society must differ from the formation of price in social conditions based upon the simple production of commodities. – Rudolf Hiferding
75513. As soon, however, as capitalist competition has definitively established the equal rate of profit, that rate becomes the starting point for the calculations of the capitalists in the investment of capital in newly-created branches of production. – Rudolf Hiferding
75514. But whether, for example, a coat can be exchanged for twenty yards of linen cloth or for forty yards is not a matter of chance, but depends upon objective conditions, upon the amount of socially necessary labor time contained in the coat and in the linen respectively. – Rudolf Hiferding

75522. The first thing is, jazz is one of the few things to let you know that there is a God and there is a creation. – Billy Higgins

75524. It doesn’t have anything to do with yesterday or tomorrow, it’s all right now. – Billy Higgins
75525. It brings people together. It brings the races together. It brings religions together. – Billy Higgins
75526. If somebody would come and they’re not playing music, they would encounter certain people on another level. – Billy Higgins
75527. If I couldn’t do it, then I’d be defeated. I’ve got the tools to do it. I never did question my tools. – Billy Higgins
75528. I enjoy seeing young people being interested in what they can do. – Billy Higgins
75529. I might have played a little bit more in Europe than I have in Japan. – Billy Higgins
75530. I think that people should learn about that. In most music, there’s one way that you do something, and that’s the only way. In jazz, it’s a lot different. – Billy Higgins
75531. Because the stuff that they feed kids now, they’ll have a bunch of idiots in the next millennium as far as art and culture is concerned. – Billy Higgins

75539. I think $100 at the end of the year doesn’t mean a lot to me, but $100 from everyone in the state at the end of the year could mean lots of programs that could be good for Hawaii. – John Higgins
75540. I didn’t make a 147 until few years ago – I just wasn’t the sort of player who went for them. But it’s like buses I suppose, one comes along and then a few more follow. – John Higgins
75541. Originality is simply a pair of fresh eyes. – Thomas W. Higginson

75557. A good teacher is a determined person. – Gilbert Highet
75558. What is politics but persuading the public to vote for this and support that and endure these for the promise of those? – Gilbert Highet

75560. Some fellow from the Third World kept hammering for prizes for a Communist film which was rotten. – Patricia Highsmith

75568. I don’t set the alarm to get up. I get up when I feel like it. – Patricia Highsmith
75569. I don’t think Ripley is gay. He appreciates good looks in other men, that’s true. But he’s married in later books. I’m not saying he’s very strong in the sex department. But he makes it in bed with his wife. – Patricia Highsmith
75570. I don’t want to know movie directors. I don’t want to be close to them. I don’t want to interfere with their work. I don’t want them to interfere with mine. – Patricia Highsmith

75601. Democracy is not something that happens, you know, just at election time, and it’s not something that happens just with one event. It’s an ongoing building process. But it also ought to be a part of our culture, a part of our lives. – Jim Hightower
75602. But the good news is that out in the countryside, just about every place that’s got a zip code has somebody or some group of people battling the economic and political exclusion that Wall Street and Washington are shoving down our throats. – Jim Hightower

75608. When I entered politics, I took the only downward turn you could take from journalism. – Jim Hightower
75609. What’s new is that the White House itself has now been corporatized. It’s not politicians working for the corporate interests. They are the corporate interests. That’s where Bush came from, and Cheney and Rumsfeld. – Jim Hightower
75610. There’s nothing in the middle of the road but a yellow stripe and dead armadillos. – Jim Hightower

75626. Sort of like, I have to make the Japanese lyrics really deep. – Utada Hikaru

75691. What I wanted was for everyone listening to understand that these things mattered – not necessarily for me, but in this particular forum they mattered in terms of whether of not we were getting a person who should sit on the Supreme Court. – Anita Hill
75692. When I think of what has happened in a larger sense, beyond myself, then I would not change anything. – Anita Hill
75693. What we really need to be understanding is that all of these things matter and they all stem from the fact that certain people live with power and authority and they want to maintain it. – Anita Hill
75694. Because I was extremely uncomfortable talking about sex with him at all and particularly in such a graphic way, I told him that I did not want to talk about these subjects. – Anita Hill

75699. I was aware, however, that telling at any point in my career could adversely affect my future career. – Anita Hill
75700. I think, though, as African-American women, we are always trained to value our community even at the expense of ourselves, and so we attempt to protect the African-American community. – Anita Hill
75701. I resent the idea that people would blame the messenger for the message, rather than looking at the content of the message itself. – Anita Hill
75702. I have no personal vendetta against Clarence Thomas. I seek only to provide the committee with information which it may regard as relevant. – Anita Hill

75706. For my undergraduate work, I went to Oklahoma State University and graduated from there in 1977. – Anita Hill
75707. During this period at the Department of Education, my working relationship with Judge Thomas was positive. – Anita Hill
75708. Certainly my life will not ever be as private and discreet, and perhaps I should even use the word insulated, as it was before. – Anita Hill
75709. But I think it would be irresponsible for me not to say what I really believe in my heart to be true – that there are some serious inequities that we face as women and that we can work to address these inequities. – Anita Hill
75710. I see myself as an educator. – Anita Hill
75711. But the issue of sexual harassment is not the end of it. There are other issues – political issues, gender issues – that people need to be educated about. – Anita Hill

75738. I’m a member of the US committee o the United Nations. – Betty Hill
75739. In fact, if you have a crime committed against you, and you go to have hypnosis, you can’t testify. Because there’s no way to test what is real, what’s fact, what’s fantasy. – Betty Hill
75740. Meanwhile I married and I adopted three kids who were all from one family and then later I was divorced. – Betty Hill
75741. Now back in those days, to become a rural mail carrier you had to be approved by congress. – Betty Hill

75743. Okay, the experience itself was a pleasant experience. – Betty Hill
75744. They came out over the highway and they stopped and that’s when Barney got out, with the binoculars to try and identify the craft. I mean, he’d been in the military in World War Two, he’s puzzled. – Betty Hill
75745. Only medical hypnosis is capable of opening up amnesia. – Betty Hill
75746. So actually we didn’t have any contacts with UFO organizations. It was all strictly government. – Betty Hill
75747. So it’s sheer terror, but then, this is the whole reason that we went so long to Doctor Simons, was to get rid of all these… mixed feelings that we had. – Betty Hill
75748. I don’t know if we even mentioned UFOs. It was to find out why Barney was emotionally upset. – Betty Hill
75749. So that they can actually make it known to the American people before they vote what they’re voting for. – Betty Hill

75757. I had a lot of time to think, and that is not good for your mind. And when it actually happened, it was not so much a celebration but the relief. It was an exorcism anxiety. After each race there is a procedure in which you get taken off to the podium and the TV interviews. – Damon Hill
75758. People ask me to describe myself, but it’s a very personal thing. You don’t feel comfortable. – Damon Hill
75759. Last year was a lifetime, a whole career in one season. We went from being the dregs to winners. – Damon Hill
75760. It was five years since I’d won a race, so I was a bit bewildered. – Damon Hill
75761. If someone is being absolutely critical of me as a driver, what could they say? I am also critical of myself to try and keep things in perspective. That is very important. – Damon Hill
75762. If I am treated fairly, I like to do things in a fair manner. That is the way I have been all my career. I haven’t tried to do things in an underhanded way. – Damon Hill
75763. If I am pushed I will push back, that is the way I am. I am very British. We don’t like to be pushed around. When the chips are down we might have to step into grey areas. – Damon Hill

75765. I have always liked a challenge. – Damon Hill

75767. I am very much aware that if I am getting good press at the moment I could just as easily be getting bad press. I cannot have the good and forget the bad. You have to accept it both ways. – Damon Hill
75768. I am surprised people took so long to pick up on the fact that my contract expires at the end of this year. Eddie has to decide who he wants to drive, so there is no secret anywhere. I am not concerned. It does not sit with my objectives to be competitive. – Damon Hill
75769. I am not allowing myself to get carried away. – Damon Hill
75770. Because it is my second season with the team, no time has been wasted in getting to know the people I’m working with. I am aware of what the team is capable of and how the organisation works, and they are familiar with what makes me tick. – Damon Hill

75773. The sport would not survive today if drivers were being killed at the rate they were in the 1960s and ’70s. It would have been taken off the air. It is beamed into people’s living rooms on Sunday afternoons, with children watching. – Damon Hill
75774. There are a lot of factors in the life of an F1 driver which can combine to make you believe that you are somehow above normality. I think that is a mistake to start believing that. But, at the same time, it is important to be confident. – Damon Hill
75775. To be honest, I think for part of my late teens my character didn’t really develop very much. I was in a state of cold storage. – Damon Hill
75776. Winter testing is essential but there comes a point where you have had enough of all the rehearsals and the pretend racing. You just want to get down to the real action. – Damon Hill
75777. You should never feel comfortable. There is something wrong if you are. You should always feel under threat, on the edge of your seat and pushing yourself. Win one and you want to win more. It’s never-ending. – Damon Hill
75778. Some books claim I have already clocked up a century of Grands Prix, but let me put the record straight. Australia will be my 100th start, and I aim to mark the milestone with a cracking performance. It could even be celebrated with a victory. – Damon Hill
75779. Realistically, we could aim for the top three in the constructors championship. Realistically, we could look at winning more races. Three race wins would be very satisfying. – Damon Hill
75780. I had to start being aware of what I ate, what I’m planning to eat and take my twice-daily medication accordingly. That’s not so difficult now, but when you’re 10 years old, it’s tough, let me tell you. – Dana Hill
75781. People are never quiet. It’s go, go, go. I’m a go-getter, but you need rest and silence, just to sit around and think about things. – Dana Hill
75782. Now that I’m more mature, in a funny way, I can even appreciate that I’ve bad to become more aware of my body. Since I’ve chosen acting as my career, I have to keep my weight down anyway-I’ve been used to it for years, so it’s no problem. And there’s nothing I can’t do. – Dana Hill
75783. My mother keeps things in perspective for me. She makes me realize that the acting I do and love is no more important than what one of my brothers does-he works in a shoe repair shop. If my career ever tapers off, I’ll go to college. – Dana Hill
75784. If one thing that bothers me about acting, it’s that there’s no clear-cut number one. The closest you can get is winning an Academy Award, and I’m going to work on that if it takes me the next 50 years. To my peers, it will mean that I’m the best! – Dana Hill
75785. I’m a normal teen-ager except for my size. – Dana Hill
75786. I’d be nervous about skiing, wondering what I’d do if I felt shaky on top of a mountain; but other diabetics do ski, so there’s no reason I couldn’t. – Dana Hill
75787. I used the diabetes as my weapon. Of course, I was only hurting myself and making myself sicker, but I guess it was something I had to go through. I never went overboard so much that I really hurt myself, but my early teenage years were very tough. – Dana Hill
75788. I love TV. I know all the theme songs from the shows I watch. I’m not one of those who’d rather be a movie star. I prefer TV because of the rushed way of working-on a movie set, you sit around and wait and wait to do a scene because they’re adjusting the lights. – Dana Hill
75789. I know all the critics. – Dana Hill
75790. I’m a lot luckier than most people, although I used to look at it the other way around-that so many people seemed luckier than me. – Dana Hill
75791. I like school very much, and I’ll go to college if my career slows down. But kids go to college to be where I am today. Not to put college down, but for me, it would be digressing. – Dana Hill
75792. Those who have happy homes seldom turn out badly. – Daniel H. Hill
75793. There was a nuisance in the service known as the army correspondent. – Daniel H. Hill

75797. Jackson was not a religious man when he came to Lexington. – Daniel H. Hill
75798. Jackson went from the professor’s chair to the officer’s saddle. He carried with him the very elements of character which made him odious as a teacher; but I never saw him in an arbitrary mood. – Daniel H. Hill

75807. I’m a home girl. I like to stay home. – Faith Hill
75808. When I wake up in a bad mood, I try not to stay in one. Learn to make the best of what you have. – Faith Hill
75809. The song This Kiss was definitely my breakthrough song. After that, Breathe was my breakthrough album. – Faith Hill
75810. The foundation of family – that’s where it all begins for me. – Faith Hill
75811. Everybody wants you to do good things, but in a small town you pretty much graduate and get married. Mostly you marry, have children and go to their football games. – Faith Hill
75812. A little bit of stage fright, then I’m ready. – Faith Hill
75813. Children are easily influenced, and I always want to do things I can be proud to show my kids someday. – Faith Hill
75814. I’m still proud of what I’ve done, even if it hasn’t been the biggest song on the radio or hasn’t gone to number one. – Faith Hill
75815. Country music is the people’s music. It just speaks about real life and about truth and it tells things how they really are. – Faith Hill
75816. Reba is very, very close to everyone around her. She’s a classy lady. – Faith Hill
75817. I didn’t realize that everyone was so attracted to my hair. I thought, well what about my music? – Faith Hill
75818. I don’t let things go unless I’m ready for them to go. – Faith Hill
