92276. I think every girl is looking for her Mr. Darcy. – Keira Knightley

92287. There’s nothing like doing something wrong to learn how it might be done better. – David Knopfler

92292. Now I’m having to live with sales of around 50,000 per album – but I’m pretty content with my place in the general scheme of things, even if it’s meant I don’t drive a fancy car and can’t afford grand vacations. – David Knopfler
92293. In some ways it’s taken me decades to come clean and make honest work – and still to this day, sometimes I find myself wanting to hide behind my work and deny the more biographical aspects. – David Knopfler

92295. I’d make a terrible practitioner of any religion in any formal setting. – David Knopfler
92296. I took the process of doing as much myself as I could like a duck to water. I set up my own label and publishing, etc, and it was a fun learning curve two decades ago. – David Knopfler

92302. My idea of heaven is a place where the Tyne meets the Delta, where folk music meets the blues. – Mark Knopfler
92303. While listening, to things like western swing, for instance, I’d work something out in my head, then play it on my National; not the same song, but one that captured the feeling of the original tune. – Mark Knopfler

92305. What I always try to do is to respond to the song; I’ve always rebelled against theory. – Mark Knopfler
92306. We used to play in a theater club in London called The King’s Head. When the theater let nut, around 10:00 P.M., we’d be ready to go and really get it on for about an hour or so. – Mark Knopfler
92307. The music just tends to be a vehicle for that poetry. – Mark Knopfler

92310. I was into playing American music, especially the blues. – Mark Knopfler
92311. I love Gibsons, and Nationals, too. There’s something magical about them. – Mark Knopfler
92312. I just want to be able to play and make people feel good with what I do. When you’re thinking that way, anything can happen. And, usually, what happens is good. – Mark Knopfler
92313. I even played bass for a while. Besides playing electric guitar, I’d also get asked to play some acoustic stuff. But, since I didn’t have an acoustic guitar at the time, I used to borrow one from a friend so I could play folk joints. – Mark Knopfler
92314. I don’t like definitions, but if there is a definition of freedom, it would be when you have control over your reality to transform it, to change it, rather than having it imposed upon you. You can’t really ask for more than. – Mark Knopfler
92315. There happened to be guitar classes at the college, and there was a guitar teacher there with whom I used to play. In addition, I also would go out into country schools and teach little kids basic guitar and singing a few times a week. – Mark Knopfler
92316. Every guitar I own gets used and has its purpose. – Mark Knopfler
92317. Each song has its own secret that’s different from another song, and each has its own life. Sometimes it has to be teased out, whereas other times it might come fast. There are no laws about songwriting or producing. It depends on what you’re doing, not just who you’re doing. – Mark Knopfler
92318. After a while, though, the group just wasn’t a good vehicle for the songs I’d written. – Mark Knopfler

92320. Well, they put me in a booth and then did some nice things to the speaker to make it come out sounding ok. – Don Knotts
92321. We began to do little things, have little scenes where we just talked about things that had nothing to do with the plot. In fact, in the beginning, they didn’t want us to do that. But as time went on, you see that in so many shows. I think we were the first to do that. – Don Knotts
92322. I don’t think actors get good training today. I put my training to use in everything I do. – Don Knotts
92323. I don’t think just funny is enough on Broadway. – Don Knotts
92324. I felt like a loser. I was unhappy as a child most of the time. We were terribly poor and I hated my size. – Don Knotts
92325. Mainly, I thought of Barney as a kid. You can always look into the faces of kids and see what they’re thinking, if they’re happy or sad. That’s what I tried to do with Barney. – Don Knotts

92327. I’m a human being and I fall in love and sometimes I don’t have control of every situation. – Beyonce Knowles
92328. Diana Ross is a big inspiration to all of us. We all grew up watching everything about her – her mike placement, her grace, her style and her class. – Beyonce Knowles
92329. I get nervous when I don’t get nervous. If I’m nervous I know I’m going to have a good show. – Beyonce Knowles

92331. If he invited you out, he’s got to pay. – Beyonce Knowles
92332. The great thing about McDonald’s is that they have a lot of different things on the menu. I love their salads. – Beyonce Knowles
92333. I grew up in a very nice house in Houston, went to private school all my life and I’ve never even been to the ‘hood. Not that there’s anything wrong with the ‘hood. – Beyonce Knowles

92337. The more successful I become, the more I need a man. – Beyonce Knowles
92338. That’s when it hit me. The site is more important than me. – Harry Knowles
92339. For the last 30 years our cinemas have been ruled by science fiction and horror. We’ve had some very good Fantasy films in that time period, but for my tastes I still haven’t seen fantasy done to absolute perfection. That is the hope I have in this project. – Harry Knowles
92340. There are simply more young people than there ever were. You get this feeling of strength. Also, large numbers can be a drawback, making it difficult to lose one’s anonymity. – John Knowles
92341. Young people in my generation were sort of in lockstep, and it wasn’t just the ’40s, either. In the ’30s and in the ’50s it was the same. No one ever dropped out unless he got sick or got kicked out. – John Knowles
92342. The best teaching I ever experienced was at Exeter. Yale was a distinct letdown afterward. – John Knowles

92349. We are getting an education of a lifetime. We’re actually out there in the real world. – Solange Knowles

92597. I’ve never denied my sexual orientation. I just don’t make a point of it. It isn’t what I do. Clearly, I’m known for the work I’ve done on trade and Social Security. – Jim Kolbe
92598. I do favor guest workers, H1B visas and student visas. – Jim Kolbe
92599. It takes a long time to learn that a courtroom is the last place in the world for learning the truth. – Alice Koller
92600. Being solitary is being alone well: being alone luxuriously immersed in doings of your own choice, aware of the fullness of your won presence rather than of the absence of others. Because solitude is an achievement. – Alice Koller
92601. Genius can probably run on ahead and seek out new ways. But the good artists who follow after genius – and I count myself among these – have to restore the lost connection once more. – Kathe Kollwitz
92602. I do not want to die… until I have faithfully made the most of my talent and cultivated the seed that was placed in me until the last small twig has grown. – Kathe Kollwitz
92603. I want to cultivate the seed that was placed in me until the last small twig has grown. – Kathe Kollwitz
92604. It is my duty to voice the suffering of men, the never-ending sufferings heaped mountain-high. – Kathe Kollwitz
92605. Look at life with the eyes of a child. – Kathe Kollwitz
92606. No longer diverted by other emotions, I work the way a cow grazes. – Kathe Kollwitz
92607. To this day I do not know whether the power which has inspired my works is something related to religion, or is indeed religion itself. – Kathe Kollwitz
92608. While I drew, and wept along with the terrified children I was drawing, I really felt the burden I am bearing. I felt that I have no right to withdraw from the responsibility of being an advocate. – Kathe Kollwitz
92609. The right-to-life movement and the Roman Catholic Church are saying that it is better to destroy these embryos, or preferably have them adopted – which is not going to happen – than to use them for research. – Mort Kondracke
92610. Research is what it’s going to take to cure all these diseases. – Mort Kondracke
92611. Ward Churchill might be more valuable to the opponents of the academic left employed than unemployed. Above all, he can serve as a living window into the intellectual, moral, and political bankruptcy of the left. – Mort Kondracke
92612. Now, what tends to happen is that the stories get hyped. And the medicines are not quite as revolutionary and as dramatic as they seem to be. But, certainly, various phases of this problem are being attacked by the pharmaceutical companies. – Mort Kondracke
92613. At NIH, what tends to happen is that the proven researchers tend to get the money. New researchers, younger researchers, or people on the cutting edge don’t get the money until they have gray beards. – Mort Kondracke
92614. And there are lots of drug companies that are working on cure or medicine. – Mort Kondracke
92615. Well, there are two kinds of stem cells: adult stem cells, which you can get from any part of a grown body, and embryonic stem cells. These are the inner- core of days-old embryos that can develop into any kind of cell. – Mort Kondracke
92616. Practically every day, there is a story in the newspapers about a new breakthrough drug on Parkinson’s. – Mort Kondracke
92617. Some days you must learn a great deal. But you should also have days when you allow what is already in you to swell up and touch everything. If you never let that happen, then you just accumulate facts, and they begin to rattle around inside of you. – E. L. Konigsburg
92618. Names and theoretical things don’t occur to me. If they do, I’m not doing my real playing mode. – Lee Konitz
92619. I’d like to feel that whatever I play is a result of whatever I’ve heard. – Lee Konitz
92620. In some ways Lester Young is the most complex rhythmically of any musician. He does some things which are just phenomenal. – Lee Konitz
92621. It was 100 percent music. There was no ego involved, no attitudes, no black and white, it was pure music. – Lee Konitz
92622. It’s very demanding to make up your own music. – Lee Konitz
92623. Labels don’t mean anything to me. I’m trying to play as passionately as I’m able to. If they want to call that cool, that’s fine. Just spell the name right, is the formula. – Lee Konitz
92624. I wish that person outside would stop coughing. – Lee Konitz
92625. Most jazz players work out their solos, at least to the extent that they have a very specific vocabulary. – Lee Konitz
92626. I just completed a tour in Europe. I played every night. This requires traveling some days for six hours in a van or a train or a car. After six weeks of that, I checked into the hotel and just fell apart. – Lee Konitz
92627. Out of Coltrane’s whole history, there are things which I think are great from all the periods. – Lee Konitz
92628. Sound is the first thing that we tune into. – Lee Konitz
92629. We all learn from each other, and I never really hung out with guys in that way, so I missed out. – Lee Konitz
92630. You just keep playing. If someone special comes along and organizes it in a new way, then you’ll have another approach and everybody will jump on it to try to learn. – Lee Konitz
92631. Many people do think it’s naive to improvise in front of paying customers. I’m not saying one way is better than another. – Lee Konitz
92632. I understood that if I wanted to work, the saxophone was the main instrument. The clarinet was what we call a double. – Lee Konitz
92633. I listen to classical music very much. There’s a lot of jazz that I don’t enjoy listening to. – Lee Konitz
92634. I hear many extra-musical things somehow in Coltrane. – Lee Konitz
92635. I have been able to get a small audience. It’s not the huge audience, but it’s enough to make it possible to play. I appreciate that. – Lee Konitz
92636. I could stop and say, Well that was a D minor, G seven, but I really don’t want to know that. I just want to know that there’s a combination of notes that makes a sound. – Lee Konitz
92637. I always felt as a horn player, a jam session wasn’t satisfying enough for me. I should have been a rhythm section player, actually. – Lee Konitz
92638. Bernstein grew up in my building in New York. He’s a very, very fine player. When he was a kid, he came by to find out what was going on in the world of jazz. – Lee Konitz
92639. Benny Goodman was one of the big influences as a clarinet player. That’s why I wanted the clarinet. – Lee Konitz
92640. As long as there are people trying to play music in a sincere way, there will be some jazz. – Lee Konitz
92641. After playing now for 60 years, it’s still very challenging for me to play a simple melody and have it clean and touch the reed at the proper time in the proper way. – Lee Konitz
92642. A lot of bands were doing remotes from ballrooms around the country. – Lee Konitz
92643. A first love always occupies a special place. – Lee Konitz
92644. I love Indian music very much, but I haven’t studied that specifically. – Lee Konitz
92645. I believe that it is my job not only to write books but to have them published. A book is like a child. You have to defend the life of a child. – George Konrad
92646. You take a number of small steps which you believe are right, thinking maybe tomorrow somebody will treat this as a dangerous provocation. And then you wait. If there is no reaction, you take another step: courage is only an accumulation of small steps. – George Konrad
92647. People can inhabit anything. And they can be miserable in anything and ecstatic in anything. More and more I think that architecture has nothing to do with it. Of course, that’s both liberating and alarming. – Rem Koolhaas
92648. When shopping was still connected to the street it was also an intensification and articulation of the street. Now it has become utterly independent – contained, controlled, surveyed. – Rem Koolhaas
92649. When air conditioning, escalators, and advertising appeared, shopping expanded its scale, but also limited its spontaneity. And it became much more predictable, almost scientific. What had once been the most surprising became the most manipulated. – Rem Koolhaas
92650. We say we want to create beauty, identity, quality, singularity. And yet, maybe in truth these cities that we have are desired. Maybe their very characterlessness provides the best context for living. – Rem Koolhaas
92651. We live in an almost perfect stillness and work with incredible urgency. – Rem Koolhaas
92652. We felt it was very important for an entity like CCTV to make its presence felt… To generate a space and to define a space, that is the main thing. – Rem Koolhaas
92653. The work in S, M, L, XL was almost suicidal. It required so much effort that our office almost went bankrupt. – Rem Koolhaas
92654. The thing is that I have a really intense, almost compulsive need to record. But it doesn’t end there, because what I record is somehow transformed into a creative thing. There is a continuity. Recording is the beginning of a conceptual production. I am somehow collapsing the two – recording and producing – into a single event. – Rem Koolhaas
92655. The luxury of our position now is that we can almost assemble any team to address any issue. – Rem Koolhaas
92656. The intellectual force of the West is still dominant, but other cultures are getting stronger. I expect that we will develop a new way of thinking in architecture and urban planning, and that less will be based on our models. – Rem Koolhaas
92657. The great problem of the concert hall is that the shoebox is the ideal shape for acoustics but that no architect worth their names wants to build a shoebox. – Rem Koolhaas
92658. Prada is extremely directed in terms of communicating what they like and what they don’t like. That is actually extremely pleasant because it clarifies very easily what you can do and what you need to do. – Rem Koolhaas
92659. Our office acts like a kind of educational establishment and we are very careful who we educate. – Rem Koolhaas
92660. I’d say that my profession ends where architectural thinking ends – architectural thinking in terms of thinking about programs and organizational structure. These abstractions play a role in many other disciplines, and those disciplines are now defining their ‘architectures’ as well. – Rem Koolhaas
92661. Any architectural project we do takes at least four or five years, so increasingly there is a discrepancy between the acceleration of culture and the continuing slowness of architecture. – Rem Koolhaas
92662. But now sustainability is such a political category that it’s getting more and more difficult to think about it in a serious way. Sustainability has become an ornament. – Rem Koolhaas
92663. Designs are increasingly winning competitions because they are literally green, and because somewhere they feature a small windmill. – Rem Koolhaas
92664. Each building has to be beautiful, but cheap and fast, but it lasts forever. That is already an incredible battery of seemingly contradictory demands. So yes, I’m definitely perhaps contradictory person, but I operate in very contradictory times. – Rem Koolhaas
92665. The areas of consensus shift unbelievably fast; the bubbles of certainty are constantly exploding. – Rem Koolhaas
92666. I think one of the important evolutions is that we no longer feel compulsively the need to argue, or to justify things on a kind of rational level. We are much more willing to admit that certain things are completely instinctive and others are really intellectual. – Rem Koolhaas
92667. One of our theories is that one can offset this excessive compulsion toward the spectacular with a return to simplicity. – Rem Koolhaas
92668. If you have this reputation you can sit back and endure it, or you can try to do things with it. – Rem Koolhaas
92669. Influence is a very unpleasant subject and I deal with it in a maybe irresponsible way, which is to really ignore it. It would be a nightmare if we started to really think about it; it would tie our hands, it would tie everyone else’s hands. – Rem Koolhaas
92670. It is not possible to live in this age if you don’t have a sense of many contradictory forces. – Rem Koolhaas
92671. It’s a weird city because the uglier the weather, the more beautiful the city. And the uglier the buildings, the more coherent the city. – Rem Koolhaas
92672. Not many architects have the luxury to reject significant things. – Rem Koolhaas
92673. Escape from the architecture ghetto is one of the major drivers and has been from the very beginning. – Rem Koolhaas
92674. My interest in desperation lies only in that sometimes I find myself having become desperate. Very seldom do I start out that way. I can see of course that, in the abstract, thinking and all activity is rather desperate. – Willem de Kooning
92675. The attitude that nature is chaotic and that the artist puts order into it is a very absurd point of view, I think. All that we can hope for is to put some order into ourselves. – Willem de Kooning
92676. The trouble with being poor is that it takes up all your time. – Willem de Kooning
92677. Style is a fraud. I always felt the Greeks were hiding behind their columns. – Willem de Kooning
92678. I don’t paint to live, I live to paint. – Willem de Kooning
92679. I make pictures and someone comes in and calls it art. – Willem de Kooning
92680. Art never seems to make me peaceful or pure. – Willem de Kooning
92681. An artist is forced by others to paint out of his own free will. – Willem de Kooning
92682. Whatever an artist’s personal feelings are, as soon as an artist fills a certain area on the canvas or circumscribes it, he becomes historical. He acts from or upon other artists. – Willem de Kooning
92683. I believe that my art gets across the point that I’m in this morality theater trying to help the underdog, and I’m speaking socially here, showing concern and making psychological and philosophical statements for the underdog. – Jeff Koons
92684. I try to be a truthful artist and I try to show a level of courage. I enjoy that. I’m a messenger. – Jeff Koons
92685. I love the gallery, the arena of representation. It’s a commercial world, and morality is based generally around economics, and that’s taking place in the art gallery. – Jeff Koons
92686. I believe in advertisement and media completely. My art and my personal life are based in it. I think that the art world would probably be a tremendous reservoir for everybody involved in advertising. – Jeff Koons
92687. Art to me is a humanitarian act and I believe that there is a responsibility that art should somehow be able to effect mankind, to make the word a better place. – Jeff Koons
92688. I think about my work every minute of the day. – Jeff Koons
92689. Although I’ve said a million times that I’m not a horror writer, I do like horror. – Dean Koontz
92690. Somebody asked me about the current choice we’re being given in the presidential election. I said, Well, it’s like two of the scariest movies I can imagine. – Dean Koontz
92691. Some days I’m lucky to squeeze out a page of copy that pleases me, but I get as many as six or seven pages on a very good day; the average is probably three pages. – Dean Koontz
92692. Readers will stay with an author, no matter what the variations in style and genre, as long as they get that sense of story, of character, of empathetic involvement. – Dean Koontz
92693. I’ve got a long list of books I wish I’d never written-and I’ve kept them all out of print for the past 20 years. – Dean Koontz
92694. Sometimes there is no darker place than our thoughts, the moonless midnight of the mind. – Dean Koontz
92695. The hands of every clock are shears, trimming us away scrap by scrap, and every time piece with a digital readout blinks us towards implosion. – Dean Koontz
92696. One of the things I like enormously about Bob Weinstein is that that he’s the only studio head I have ever known who will change his mind and say he was wrong. – Dean Koontz
92697. I think the world is full of evil people. I think in some ways we’re in more danger now than before. – Dean Koontz
92698. In my personal life, I’m a comic novel. But then, so are we all, because we’re human beings. – Dean Koontz
92699. I think it’s the people who have no doubt that every word they put down is gold that probably don’t write very well. – Dean Koontz
92700. I think it’s perfectly just to refuse service to anyone based on behavior, but not based on race or religion. – Dean Koontz
92701. The only reason I would write a sequel is if I were struck by an idea that I felt to be equal to the original. Too many sequels diminish the original. – Dean Koontz
92702. Nothing gives us courage more readily than the desire to avoid looking like a damn fool. – Dean Koontz
92703. Never, never try to scope the market. – Dean Koontz
92704. My wife is my first audience. She’s a tough lady, so I can’t say that I ever scare her. Except, of course, when she sees me the way I look before breakfast. – Dean Koontz
92705. Like all of us in this storm between birth and death, I can wreak no great changes on the world, only small changes for the better, I hope, in the lives of those I love. – Dean Koontz
92706. In my books, I never portray violence as a reasonable solution to a problem. If the lead characters in the story are driven to it, it’s at the extreme end of their experience. – Dean Koontz
92707. If you want to publish two books a year under your own name and your publisher doesn’t, maybe you need a different publisher. – Dean Koontz
92708. If you have to pay the bills, and you write something you’re not proud of, use a pen-name for that. – Dean Koontz
92709. If something in your writing gives support to people in their lives, that’s more than just entertainment-which is what we writers all struggle to do, to touch people. – Dean Koontz
92710. If someone wrote it and it had a peculiar twist, I’ve read it. – Dean Koontz
92711. If I drive myself to the brink of my ability, then I don’t get stale or bored. – Dean Koontz
92712. I’ve not seen in my lifetime any politician who is a heroic figure. The manipulation that all politicians use on one level or another is so transparent. – Dean Koontz
92713. I receive about 10,000 letters a year from readers, and in the first year after a book is published, perhaps 5,000 letters will deal specifically with that piece of work. – Dean Koontz
92714. We are coming out of a century that was taught that one way of looking at the world, that one form of behavior, is as valid as another. The idea of true evil has been blown away. – Dean Koontz
92715. Literary fiction, as a strict genre, is all but dead. Meanwhile, most genres flourish. – Dean Koontz
92716. Civilization rests on the fact that most people do the right thing most of the time. – Dean Koontz
92717. Because people see violence on the movie screen, they’re not going to go out and hold up a liquor store and kill somebody. It really doesn’t correlate. – Dean Koontz
92718. A fanatic is a nut who has something to believe in. – Dean Koontz
92719. A politician’s goal is always to manipulate public debate. I think there are some politicians with higher goals. But all of them get corrupted by power. – Dean Koontz
92720. Although charismatic, James Dean is no Harrison Ford. In the majority of his movies, sooner or later he got the crap beaten out of him. – Dean Koontz
92721. There’s sometimes a weird benefit to having an alcoholic, violent father. He really motivated me in that I never wanted to be anything like him. – Dean Koontz
92722. Vladimir Nabokov said the two great evils of the 20th century were Marx and Freud. He was absolutely correct. – Dean Koontz
92723. What we do as a society is seek simple answers. – Dean Koontz
92724. I try not to spend too much time on partisan politics. Life’s too short for that. I don’t really believe that there have been many human problems solved by politics. – Dean Koontz
92725. When tempest tossed, embrace chaos. – Dean Koontz
92726. Writing a novel is like making love, but it’s also like having a tooth pulled. Pleasure and pain. Sometimes it’s like making love while having a tooth pulled. – Dean Koontz
92727. When I’m working on a novel, I work 70-hour weeks. – Dean Koontz
92728. Books were this wonderful escape for me because I could open a book and disappear into it, and that was the only way out of that house when I was a kid. – Dean Koontz
92729. I really believe that everyone has a talent, ability, or skill that he can mine to support himself and to succeed in life. – Dean Koontz
92730. Each reader needs to bring his or her own mind and heart to the text. – Dean Koontz
92731. Every book has some real life in it. I was never pursued by an evil twin clone, but everything else in MR. MURDER was pretty much out of my own life. – Dean Koontz
92732. Human beings can always be relied upon to exert, with vigor, their God-given right to be stupid. – Dean Koontz
92733. I believe that I was a dog in a past life. That’s the only thing that would explain why I like to snack on Purina Dog Chow. – Dean Koontz
92734. I do give books as gifts sometimes, when people would rather have one than a new Ferrari. – Dean Koontz
92735. I don’t find slashing and blood flying everywhere to be scary. I just find it repulsive. – Dean Koontz
92736. I don’t write a quick draft and then revise; instead, I work slowly page by page, revising and polishing. – Dean Koontz
92737. I have avoided becoming stale by putting a little water on the plate, lying on the plate, and having myself refreshed in a toaster oven for 23 minutes once every month. – Dean Koontz
92738. I have been reading Stephen King since CARRIE and hope to read him for many years to come. – Dean Koontz
92739. I have to admit that when I watch a movie in which there is no moral context for the violence – I find that offensive. I think that’s potentially damaging to society. – Dean Koontz
92740. I like to deal with EVERY aspect of our condition, and that means terror and humor in equal mix. Some books have more room for humor than others. – Dean Koontz
92741. I never discuss a novel while I’m writing it, for fear that talking about it will diminish my desire to write it. – Dean Koontz
92742. Your mind always does worse things than people can show in a movie. – Dean Koontz
92743. That is why we are working with these various groups that have volunteers. We can get a lot of these things done. Nobody has dropped out, and a lot of people would like to join. We now know what each other does. – C. Everett Koop
92744. There are many stressed single parents who may be working two jobs in order to keep the family together. – C. Everett Koop
92745. If you have a kid who goes to kindergarten and doesn’t know what a circle is, doesn’t know what red and green are, and doesn’t know what right and left are, by the time he learns those things, the rest of the class is far ahead of him. – C. Everett Koop
92746. My experience with the Junior League, when I worked in Philadelphia for four years in reference to children’s things, is that whenever they were asked they responded. They always responded with sincerity, and they did a good job. – C. Everett Koop
92747. One of the things we want to do is find ways, first, to impress these parents how important it is to have children in a situation where they can respond to them and, second, to bring intergenerational relationships into play. – C. Everett Koop
92748. Polls that have been taken by kindergarten, first- and second-grade teachers indicate that 30 percent of the kids have been deprived in some way so that they are physically unable to keep up with the class. – C. Everett Koop
92749. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has been in existence for most of this century. – C. Everett Koop
92750. The health care industry can play a great role in this by being aware of the fact that these children form perhaps the most neglected group of people in the country, largely because it is hard to find them. – C. Everett Koop
92751. The target audience goes back to conception. That means pre-natal care, safe delivery, post-natal screening, and the ordinary stuff you do in pediatrics. – C. Everett Koop
92752. The Carnegie Foundation is well aware of the fact that their reports frequently find their way to dusty archives in academic institutions, but occasionally people pick up a segment of a report and act upon it. – C. Everett Koop
92753. There are all kinds of things you can do to marry literacy with health. – C. Everett Koop
92754. There have been some good studies done in California with Hispanic parents where in the course of a year, they have changed their entire nutritional intake for the better. The kid becomes, in a sense, the bridge between the educational process and the home. – C. Everett Koop
92755. They have been deprived nutritionally, or some illness has not been picked up, or they have not been screened for vision or hearing defects, or they have not had some kind of a chronic illness or error of metabolism picked up. – C. Everett Koop
92756. When a child shows up for school, and is not physically and mentally ready to learn, he or she never catches up. – C. Everett Koop
92757. You can’t talk of the dangers of snake poisoning and not mention snakes. – C. Everett Koop
92758. The thing that reinforces my belief about that is having worked the last four years with the Safe Kids Campaign on a national basis. I am so amazed at what these little kids do in keeping their parents alerted to what they are there for. – C. Everett Koop
92759. You might expect that the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists would be there and they are. – C. Everett Koop
92760. In the days of Caesar, kings had fools and jesters. Now network presidents have anchormen. – Ted Koppel
92761. My level of cynicism about the reasons that took us to war against Iraq remain just as well-developed as they were before I went. – Ted Koppel
92762. Emotions get in the way but they don’t pay me to start crying at the loss of 269 lives. They pay me to put some perspective on the situation. – Ted Koppel
92763. History is a tool used by politicians to justify their intentions. – Ted Koppel
92764. I have been an unabashed fan of NPR for many years, and have stolen untold excellent ideas from its programming. – Ted Koppel
92765. I think we’re glazing eyes all across America. – Ted Koppel
92766. More than four thousand programs produced and consumed. Some of them were pretty good, a great many of them were forgettable; but a handful may even be worth a book. – Ted Koppel
92767. My function is, as objectively and accurately as I can, to present reality to people out there, and doing that as quickly as we do is quite difficult enough, thank you. – Ted Koppel
92768. People shouldn’t expect the mass media to do investigative stories. That job belongs to the ‘fringe’ media. – Ted Koppel
92769. The responsibility that I feel is to do as good a job as a journalist as I can possibly do. – Ted Koppel
92770. There is no more respected or influential forum in the field of journalism than the New York Times. I look forward, with great anticipation, to contributing to its op-ed page. – Ted Koppel
92771. I have the necessary lack of tact. – Ted Koppel
92772. Our society finds truth too strong a medicine to digest undiluted. In its purest form, truth is not a polite tap on the shoulder. It is a howling reproach. – Ted Koppel
92773. There is something very very special, universal and easily identifiable among all Jews; it is beyond territory, it is something we all have in common. – Ted Koppel
92774. To call something an ‘enhanced interrogation technique’ doesn’t alter the fact that we thought it was torture when the Japanese used it on American prisoners, we thought it was torture when the North Koreans used it, we thought it was torture when the Soviets used it. You know, it’s almost the moral equivalent of saying that rape is an enhanced seduction technique. – Ted Koppel
92775. If Kuwait grew carrots we wouldn’t give a damn. – Lawrence Korb
92776. This is still a man’s profession, with a lot of men who intellectually and emotionally have not accepted that the military could be women’s work. – Lawrence Korb
92777. With Guard and Reserve units, you can end up with a lot of people from one part of the country dying in one day, and that gets people’s attention. – Lawrence Korb
92778. There’s been an increase in the number of Iraqis in training, but more Americans are dying and violence is increasing. – Lawrence Korb
92779. We need to stop spending money on those weapons systems that do not advance national security. – Lawrence Korb
92780. This is probably why, my life is easier, and my family is very happy, because we never lie each other. This is probably all people supposed to feel each other, so be always in all of the world they’ll be peace. – Olga Korbut
92781. I’d been ready too, because before Olympic Games, I wasn’t compete in big competition like, World Championship, like European Championship. I just competed in national competition. – Olga Korbut
92782. It’s better to have a rich soul than to be rich. – Olga Korbut
