Most people really have no problem with the idea of a creator God.

Their question is just what is this God like, how can I know about him, how can I know him.
Eric Metaxas

Below-target inflation increases the real value of debts owed by households and businesses and reduces the ability of central banks to respond to downturns.
Jerome Powell

Technology will play an increasingly important role in business, and employees will be required to interact constantly with it. It will create an unprecedented revolution in the way we work, dramatically changing jobs within almost all organizations.
Tae Yoo

I have - and always will - stand up against efforts to limit a woman's right to choose.
Brad Schneider

I wanted to have more time to play and reflect, but I find retirement more stressful than having a nice, steady job because I have to make decisions about where I want to be.
Walter Cronkite

Putting, say, an 85 per cent income tax rate is unlikely to bring in much revenue.
Angus Deaton

Sometimes you get lucky and things are as easy as you had imagined, but that's rarely the case.
Jason Fried

'MasterChef' delivers all the reassuring, cadenced repetition of an endless chore without any of the bothersome elbow grease.
Charlie Brooker

Abnormal stresses and strains tend to accentuate man's animal instincts and provoke irrational and socially disruptive behavior among the less stable individuals in the maddening crowd.
Norman Borlaug

In order to encourage private investors to pursue long-term, responsible projects, governments need to promote consistent policies and frameworks.

You travel across the country, you visit departments, you give talks, you talk about the

work at your laboratory - what's going on, what the opportunities are there - you talk about your own research. Frank Press In the adversity of our best friends we often find something that does not displease us. Brigham Young Sound science must be our guide in choosing which problems to tackle and how to approach them. Frank Luntz Monkeys are superior to men in this: when a monkey looks into a mirror, he sees a monkey. Malcolm de Chazal I really wanted the MTV Award the most, It was a golden popcorn container and it looks really neat. Kirsten Dunst The only actress they didn't test was Garbo. Must have been her accent. Judy Holliday If civilians are going to be killed, I would rather have them be their civilians than our civilians. Stuart Symington

The critical principle demanded an examination, for instance, of the contribution of different periods, thus

to some extent embarking on historical linguistics. Ferdinand de Saussure She's 32, and she has three children. She loves to be pregnant but she doesn't want anymore children in her life. So she decided to help another couple. And she's just been amazing. Cheryl Tiegs Just as Pollock used the drip to meld process and product, Richter 'found' and used the smudge and the blur to ravish the eye, creating works of psychic and physical power. Jerry Saltz I don't understand why the accent you speak in has to indicate what level of intellect you have. Paloma Faith The Galapagos Islands provide a window on time. In a geologic sense, the islands are young, yet they appear ancient. Frans Lanting Everybody will make mistakes, and for some that mistake will rise to the level of being a crime. Kamala Harris If you're clear on what you believe, you have a great foundation to go make a market. Ginni Rometty The men have piled up in my past, have fallen...

The most important thing in imaging for me is the dynamic range. The dynamic range

means the tones that you can capture from highlights to dark and the bits, the depth of color that you can capture. Emmanuel Lubezki The butcher, baker, and candlestick maker have been around a lot longer than supermarkets and Wal-Mart. Joel Salatin If I'd been offered 'Spider-Man,' I probably would have done it. I don't think it's bad to go and do those things. Ben Wheatley We do not just fear our predators, we are transfixed by them. We are prone to weave stories and fables and chat endlessly about them. Peter Benchley It's true, I used to be so shy. I used to never talk, just sit back and do my thing. I was never bullied, though, and it was never like it was something that needed to be 'fixed', like being shy is a bad thing. Kendall Jenner One of my favorite films is 'Late Spring' by Yasujiro Ozu. To me, it represents film as art. Michael Arndt 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' is a great classic by Paul McCartney and John L...

I probably haven't even seen ten of the films I've done. I don't get a

joy out of it, and I don't go to the movies. Robert Sean Leonard I can't switch time zones any more. London is one of my favourite places, but I'm always so zonked that I can't appreciate it. It's like a six-inch sheet of glass between me and Charing Cross Road. Douglas Coupland My job is to let everybody know what I stand for and to let my light shine. I want to show others the way I live so that hopefully they follow. I can also tell about my experiences as a Christian so that I may help bring others to Christ. LaDainian Tomlinson Most interviewers are looking for a headline. They're not skilled. They're looking for shock value. Ice T If we admit it or not, skiing is a little bit of show biz. Willy Bogner, Jr. The more time you invest in a marriage, the more valuable it becomes. Amy Grant Involvement in Afghanistan, I thought, was totally warranted. We were attacked, we attacked back, but after six months of being in Afghanistan, I though...

I made a Christmas album a couple of years ago and just put it out

on my Web site. It kind of smacked of this flavor. All of the reviews said it was Western swing even when it was Christmas standards. Suzy Bogguss Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown. William Shakespeare To be a good draftsman was to me a blessing. John James Audubon As you get older three things happen. The first is your memory goes, and I can't remember the other two. Norman Wisdom Love is the great miracle cure. Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives. Louise L. Hay We have two evils to fight, capitalism and racism. We must destroy both racism and capitalism. Huey Newton Talk ought always to run obliquely, not nose to nose with no chance of mental escape. Frank Moore Colby

My dad made a film called 'Willow' when he was a young filmmaker, which screened

at the Cannes film festival, and people were booing afterwards. Bryce Dallas Howard Despite the strength of the feminist movement in the 1970s and beyond, a fable has persisted that educated women are rejected as marriage partners. Karen DeCrow When the Transportation Security Administration adopted body scanners at airports, activists wrote the Fourth Amendment on their underwear in metallic paint readable by the new devices. Dana Priest I consider myself a line drive hitter with power. I just try to put my best swing on the ball every time. Albert Pujols I get to have Sunday lunch at my mum's, pick my nephew up from school now and then: it's a very normal life. Vicky McClure Homosexuality is acceptable in the West. Najib Razak Negative emotions like hatred destroy our peace of mind. Matthieu Ricard I majored in criminal justice. I like 'CSI,' all that, '24.' I watch those shows on A&E, if I watch TV. I don't really watch TV shows. ...

When you speak of the press, of course, you have to speak of different

segments of the press. Reporters, straight reporters, wire services, you stick to the facts; you don't create the story, per se. You cover what is happening. Helen Thomas My way of relaxing was always doing the opposite and playing the drums, but I need to be able to actually chill. Cara Delevingne It is not true that I oppose government funding of the arts. Camille Paglia Many girls do not go to school because of poverty. Malala Yousafzai The hard part for me was being an Olympic gold medalist and having that persona; you don't see too many Olympic gold medalists go into acting. It's actually even more difficult. You're not taken very seriously, and you're looked at in a different light, so it was kind of hard for me to go straight from Olympics into acting. Kurt Angle At many a moment on many a day, I am convinced that pro football must be a game for madmen, and I must be one of them. Vince Lombardi Sylvia Plath, Rumi, there's a lot of spoke...

'The Golden Compass' became a bad experience because the studio didn't have faith in the

strength of the ideas of the novel, which is ironic because it's one of the greatest fantasy novels ever written, if not the greatest, and they took the religion out of it and tried to turn it into a popcorn movie. Chris Weitz If I feel strongly, I say it. I know I can do more good by being vocal than by staying quiet. I'd have a whole lot more money if I lied, but I wouldn't enjoy spending it. Martina Navratilova I saw Ronnie Hawkins play near my hometown, Port Dover, Ontario, and I saw him play there on New Year's Eve and the following spring I booked myself to be his opening act on maybe five shows, and he hired me after the first night. Rick Danko You sort of have to become what you're wearing. Pharrell Williams I believe in status symbols. Brooks Stevens The path that went by the little house had become a road. Almost every day Laura and Mary stopped their playing and stared in surprise at a wagon slowly creaking by on that road. Laura Ingalls W...

Women have a way of contorting things sometimes. We all have our moods, ups and

downs. Or if the guy doesn't say anything when you walk out with a new top and the guy has no idea why you're mad at him. So of course, women are complicated. Malin Akerman When I see something that's sensitive, I go, 'You've got to put that out there.' You need to keep the dialogue going and shine a light on the bad guys. If you sweep it under the carpet, people forget about it. People stop talking about it. Jeff Ross 'Elf' has become this big holiday movie, and I remember running around the streets of New York in tights saying, 'This could be the last movie I ever make,' and I could never have predicted that it'd become such a popular film. Will Ferrell When I was deputy chairman I could travel from Glasgow to Edinburgh without leaving Tory land. In a two-week period I covered every constituency in which we had an MP. There were 14. Now we have only one. We appear to have given up. Jeffrey Archer Critics of consumer capitalism l...

I had my first French meal and I never got over it. It was just

marvelous. We had oysters and a lovely dry white wine. And then we had one of those lovely scalloped dishes and the lovely, creamery buttery sauce. Then we had a roast duck and I don't know what else. Julia Child Guilt is a poisonous illusion. Many languages don't even have a word for guilt. Sure, we all feel it. But we also get to decide if we're going to let guilt bring us down or not. Acknowledge the feelings, and then give yourself permission to let them go. Kris Carr Now, people have said that somebody told them that they saw somebody on the railroad bank or saw somebody going over the bank, but no one has ever been able to show any cartridges, any rifle, any pistol, no one has ever found anything other than the evidence about Oswald. John Sherman Cooper I think all those artists are artists who are appreciated because you believe their words and you appreciate their honesty in their music. If you don't appreciate the honesty in the music, the beat can be ...
