I am trying to show the world that we are all human beings and that color is not important. What is important is the quality of our work.

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important.

It behooves every man to remember that the work of the critic is of altogether secondary importance and that in the end progress is accomplished by the man who does things.

All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.

I think the most important thing people can do to save our planet and the human race is to empower women!

Feminism is a word that I identify with. The term has become synonymous with vitriolic man-hating but it needs to come back to a place where both men and women can embrace it. It is particularly important for women in developing countries.

I think women want to take care of themselves and I think having a voice in how that is done is very important.

Many differences are rooted in biology and reinforced through culture so it's important to acknowledge that. Because if you say men and women are the same and if male behaviour is the norm and women are always expected to act like men we will never be as good at being men as men are.

You don't argue with a four-year old about why he shouldn't eat candy for dinner. You don't punch a mentally handicapped guy even if he punches you first. And you don't argue when a women tells you she's only making 80 cents to your dollar. It's the path of least resistance. You save your energy for more important battles.

The most important lesson of New Labour is this: Every time we made progress we did it by challenging the conventional wisdom.

I have tried at every point to seek God's wisdom on the decisions I made and I made it my business to speak up on behalf of the things God tells us are important to Him.

But I do think it's important to remember that writers do not have a monopoly of wisdom on their books. They can be wrong about their own books they can often learn about their own books.

Clinton is a big personality who has led a big life and for some of the media conventional wisdom to boil it down to a view that 'all people are really interested in' are a few moments of madness in the Oval Office gets him the importance of the presidency and the significance of his life all wrong.

I always told Sandra Bullock was my student when she was younger I always told her it's important that we hold on to our insecurity the wisdom of insecurity.

You know many people have said that I'm on the edge and I'm maverick for some of the big operations that I've done. I'm not at all. I pray I ask God to give me wisdom 'Should I do it?' guidance in terms of how to do it who to consult with. All those kind of things are incredibly important.

Kindness is more important than wisdom and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.

I learned some valuable lessons about the legislative process the importance of bipartisan cooperation and the wisdom of taking small steps to get a big job done.

It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important.

It's important to still look like yourself on your wedding day so I didn't do anything drastic.

When I was in Pulp I actively did more TV stuff because that was during the Great Britpop Wars and it seemed important to prove that indie people could speak. That war doesn't exist anymore.

It's very important to go back and keep in mind the distinction between handling these events as criminal acts which was the way we did before 9/11 and then looking at 9/11 and saying 'This is not a criminal act ' not when you destroy 16 acres of Manhattan kill 3 000 Americans blow a big hole in the Pentagon. That's an act of war.

Weapons are an important factor in war but not the decisive one it is man and not materials that counts.

This is an important book the critic assumes because it deals with war. This is an insignificant book because it deals with the feelings of women in a drawing-room.

In war events of importance are the result of trivial causes.
