I hope girls read what I say in interviews - they should just be themselves.

I hope we never get to the point that we put ourselves in Jesus' place. But when I read the New Testament basically we get three mandates: to love God to love each other and to take care of the least among us. And I think this is at least a step in the right direction.

I hope in my lifetime we can all continue to laugh at ourselves and not put down anyone for what they weigh.

Any institution faces two basic choices if they hope to spark new ideas. One is to leverage the brains trust within their organization by creating a special event dedicated to new thinking. The other is to look outside themselves to stimulate solutions.

We would not be interested in human beings if we did not have the hope of someday meeting someone worse off than ourselves.

Truth is not a matter of fact but a state of harmony with progress and hope. Enveloped only in its wings will we ever soar to the promise of our greater selves.

The only hope of socialism resides in those who have already brought about in themselves as far as is possible in the society of today that union between manual and intellectual labor which characterizes the society we are aiming at.

Pessimists are the people who have no hope for themselves or for others. Pessimists are also people who think the human race is beneath their notice that they're better than other human beings.

We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.

Leaving home in a sense involves a kind of second birth in which we give birth to ourselves.

The people recognize themselves in their commodities they find their soul in their automobile hi-fi set split-level home kitchen equipment.

I think children learning to cook can be such a wonderful thing. It can help build confidence make them feel good about themselves. It helped me build my ego and even start to get acceptance at school. I'd bring things to class that I'd cooked at home.

We are not about to send American boys 9 or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.

I think a submarine is a very worthwhile weapon. I believe we can defend ourselves with submarines and all our troops back at home. This whole idea that we have to be in 130 countries and 900 bases... is an old-fashioned idea.

Crafts make us feel rooted give us a sense of belonging and connect us with our history. Our ancestors used to create these crafts out of necessity and now we do them for fun to make money and to express ourselves.

You look at the greatest villains in human history the fascists the autocrats they all wanted people to kneel before them because they don't love themselves enough.

Minimalism seems closest to the sophisticated storytelling of movies. Movies have really educated contemporary audiences to be the most intelligent sophisticated audiences in history. We don't any longer need to have the relationship between one scene and the next explained. We will figure it out ourselves.

History shows that where ethics and economics come in conflict victory is always with economics. Vested interests have never been known to have willingly divested themselves unless there was sufficient force to compel them.

We don't come to Canada for our health. We can think of other ways of enjoying ourselves.

People are at their happiest if they are true to themselves. I think that applies to their chosen profession friends and relationships. It goes for your health too. If you are true to yourself it seems to me everything should work out pretty well.
