The stark and inescapable fact is that today we cannot defend our society by war since total war is total destruction and if war is used as an instrument of policy eventually we will have total war.

Human rights commissions as they are evolving are an attack on our fundamental freedoms and the basic existence of a democratic society... It is in fact totalitarianism. I find this is very scary stuff.

Country music in the mid-'90s was a big influence on my career and I played all the songs that are referenced in ''94' back in my club days. Joe Diffie was rocking a sick mullet and he was hotter than ever... just putting out monster hit after monster hit. It totally takes me back to those days and it makes me smile every time I hear it.

Winning is the science of being totally prepared.

Fantasy is totally wide open all you really have to do is follow the rules you've set. But if you're writing about science you have to first learn what you're writing about.

The thing about science fiction is that it's totally wide open. But it's wide open in a conditional way.

With acknowledgement of residues we can be more easily prepared to grant the unit of science the overlapping of disciplines and the total coherence of all facts.

Ladies and gentlemen it is with great sadness that I announce that I will resign as Australia's Minister for Foreign Affairs. I am sad because I love this job. I'm totally dedicated to the work that we are doing in Australia's name around the world and I believe that we have achieved many good results for Australia and I'm proud of them.

When I was a teenager I was a total romantic escapist. My world was books.

No actually 'The Host' was totally a palate-cleanser for me. I wanted to do something a little bit different than romantic love. Romantic love is in there obviously because I enjoy writing about that and living it a lot.

I'm a fan of daytime drama I totally get it. When we are doing scenes that are romantic or will get the audience riled up I feel like I'm a fan in the room going 'People are going to be so mad right now!'

I received from my experience in Japan an incredible sense of respect for the art of creating not just the creative product. We're all about the product. To me the process was also an incredibly important aspect of the total form.

Back then a half-a-century ago the situation was totally different. Economically we were practically on our knees and politically we were still excluded from the community of nations. Today in this respect we have a totally different and much more stable basis.

There was certainly less profanity in the Godfather than in the Sopranos. There was a kind of respect. It's not that I totally agreed with it but it was a great piece of art.

I don't wilt easily and a director can't either. He's the captain of the ship and he's got to be in total control. He also has to have respect for the people he's working for. From being an actor and being on a set my whole life I'm very comfortable there. And I'm not afraid.

In this respect I suppose I'm the total opposite of Garry. With his very emotive body language at the board he shows and displays all his emotions. I don't.

You totally value and respect your body as you get older.

The Lord's prayer contains the sum total of religion and morals.

One of Dawkins' major gripes is against religion. I am in total agreement on that one. I abhor religion.

There is an absolutely fundamental hostility on the part of totalitarian regimes toward religion.

Religious wars are not caused by the fact that there is more than one religion but by the spirit of intolerance... the spread of which can only be regarded as the total eclipse of human reason.

The humanists' replacement for religion: work really hard and somehow you'll either save yourself or you'll be immortal. Of course that's a total joke and our progress is nothing. There may be progress in technology but there's no ethical progress whatsoever.

We were in a relationship for eight years and we maybe saw each other total for a year.

I've always been interested in the relationship between total external surround culture the political matrix technology etc. and the internal human consciousness.
