But peace does not rest in the charters and covenants alone. It lies in the hearts and minds of all people. So let us not rest all our hopes on parchment and on paper, let us strive to build peace, a desire for peace, a willingness to work for peace in the hearts and minds of all of our people. I believe that we can. I believe the problems of human destiny are not beyond the reach of human beings.

Fulton J. Sheen
There is no pain equal to that which two lovers can inflict on one another. This should be made clear to all who contemplate such a union. The avoidance of this pain is the beginning of wisdom, for it is strong enough to contaminate the rest of our lives.

Amelia Earhart
Most of the time I don't have much fun. The rest of the time I don't have any fun at all.

Chris Bown

Asim Jihad
[The council] looks like a free-for-all, but it's just one person: Jerry. The rest of us work together.
Robert Jenkins
Our life is frittered away by detail. An honest man has hardly need to count more than his ten fingers, or in extreme cases he may add his ten toes, and lump the rest. Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!

I am an amateur and I intend to stay that way for the rest of my life.
Andre Kertesz

Debbie Williams
We can't absorb the whole cost of an engine. But we did offer to reduce what our rates would be but he (Mr. Smalls) would have to pay the rest of it and he hasn't agreed to do that.
Mark Medinger
We're a little worn down, but I think my dad does a good job trying to get us rest when we're not playing. We've reached the point of the season where you just have to keep playing through it.
Patrick Beilein
We're fortunate. It's a chance ... at least for those who want to do something with the rest of their life.
Russell Brown
For some ungodly reason, I end up being naked in a lot of stuff. But there is a certain grace and kudos that come with taking your clothes off on the first day, a respect that is given by the rest of the cast.
Paul Bettany
Let us cross over the river and rest under the shade of the trees.
Thomas Stonewall Jackson
Our press really pumps us up, especially when we get some stops. I think it really set the tone for the rest of the game.
Jamey Gelhar
That's the secret of entertaining. You make your guests feel welcome and at home. If you do that honestly, the rest takes care of itself.
Barbara Hall
I'll be sitting on the edge of my seat hoping all of those blokes come back healthy. It is a physical challenge for them to present, year after year, without the appropriate rest and recovery.
Greg Shipperd
We've got three males, and the rest are females. I think it kind of goes back to the care-giving.
Jackie Jordan
North Carolina is not exempt from the problems of the rest of the nation. A lot of people are scared of Part D -- they don't know if it's going to help them or hurt them.
Kristin Runger
We usually say of ancient persons, that they have already one foot in the grave, and the rest of their life is nothing else but the bringing of these feet together.
John Pearson

Kyle Wanvig
I'm just getting myself prepared for tomorrow. I'm making sure to stock up for the new year and the rest of the year.
John Clemens
It's the best group of interest we've had yet. We are so impressed we decided to put them on the main stage for an hour before the rest of the schedule gets started. They deserve the exposure.

I told my linemen to be tough, push them back, and I'd do the rest.
Austin Davis

Thorstein Veblen
We're here (in San Antonio) for the rest of the year, but we don't know where the rest of the home games will be played. For now, we're trying to find apartments and gain some kind of familiarity and get our schedule set up day-by-day. It's a process. We're getting there. Next week, we'll be back to normal, except for our home games.
Brian Young
This art of resting the mind and the power of dismissing from it all care and worry is probably one of the secrets of energy in our great men.
Captain J. A. Hadfield

Bruce Dickinson
He has a long record of poking Republicans in the eye. He's so far out there. He campaigned for John Kerry. I rest my case.
Ray Mcnally
If I start the rest of the year, I'll go out there and get six interceptions. My goal is to get 10 this year and I'll have to get them in 14 games now.
Ahmad Carroll
The rest of the world is paying very high prices for Australia's mineral and energy exports while import prices, excluding oil, have barely risen over the past few years.
Michael Workman
We're hoping the weather the rest of the week should help it melt.
Robert Freeman
We know we can't let teams hang around. Getting on them early can set a tone for the rest of the game, which happened [Friday]. We only won by [13] points, but it didn't seem like that because we established the tone early with our defense.
Jack Scalcucci
She's a real quiet kid, but she ignites us by getting us going. The rest of the kids, as soon as they see her get on they know, done deal, she's going to score, and who's going to be next? It's that kind of feeling we get when she gets on.
Larry Bieber
He had a style that nobody else had, and I think when you're separate from the rest, it makes you kind of special.

Mick Beddoes
Sondheim Etc. Etc.: Bernadette Peters Live at Carnegie Hall (The Rest of It).
Bernadette Peters
I know the people were very pleased to see Monday take the flag away from those guys. I know Rick has done a lot of good things as a player and as a person. But what he did for his country, he will be remembered for the rest of his life as an American hero.
Manny Mota
How does this big piece of property get access points without accessing through the rest of us and ruining our lives?
Robert Weiss
In the first half everything went fine but we didn't build up enough of an advantage to allow us to relax for the rest of the game.
Wanderley Luxemburgo
I think it's a decent quarter, but that's going to be offset by some of the cautionary statements the company made for the rest of the year.
Jeff Graff
It gets cold. Winters are cold, it's not a surprise. We had such a mild November we'd need it to be 15 to 18 degrees below normal for the rest of the month to get the degree days we had last year, and that's not going to happen.
Nauman Barakat
Japan's recovery is really firmly based and it is driven by domestic demand. For the rest of Asia, the pace of growth is expected to continue at a decent level this year and next.
David Burton
He didn't feel well and after two periods [on Sunday], we decided to give him a rest.
Ondrej Weissman
That will definitely help us. We play Saturday and hopefully Sunday ? back-to-back games. It's great to get as much rest as you can.
Jonte Flowers
We are enjoying one of the most favorable economic climates in our history and are outstripping the rest of the U.K. in almost every aspect of economic activity.
Rhodri Morgan
If I go out and pitch 14 games the rest of the season and I'm pretty successful, it would be tough to not want to continue to (pitch relief). I want to be successful in everything I do.
Jamey Wright
We are using the income to fund the rest of the program. Without the CAP program, you don't have the money to run the other programs.
Frank Queen
We consider the turnout this year satisfactory. This number could change as the rest of our reports come in.
Peter Erben
Inevitably, as we grow bigger across the rest of the country, and Dallas remains the same size, we might have to begin casting about for a place that's more efficient to operate.
Herb Kelleher
It feels like a continuation of the Blondie sound. It's very eclectic, ... Our influences are not all musical. We're influenced by art, culture, camp values and irony. That's what puts us away from the rest of the pack.
Clem Burke
Sales should slow with the economy through the rest of this year and next. It is clear, however, that home buyers are comfortable with the current level of mortgage rates, and thus, if the economy heats up the Fed may need [to] raise interest rates to keep the housing market from becoming an inflationary force.
Michael Boldin
Everybody knows him for one thing. So we tried to work on the rest of it. You can quantify it or qualify it that way - we worked on everything but the deep ball.
Steve Watson
The rest of them came through unscathed.
Nick Holmes
It was a foregone conclusion that he would break the record, it was just a matter of when and now it's past and we can focus on the rest of the season.
Steve Bell
A little of what you call frippery is very necessary towards looking like the rest of the world.
Abigail Adams
We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation, and have treated our distant cousins in fur and feathers so badly that beyond doubt, if they were able to formulate a religion, they would depict the Devil in human form.
William Ralph Inge
Home, the spot of earth supremely blest, A dearer, sweeter spot than all the rest.
Robert Montgomery
We settled down and battled hard for the rest of the game. Medford's probably the best team we've faced, and we were pretty competitive.
Rob Kelley
Maybe (people) will enjoy it and continue to do it for the rest of their lives.
Deanna Krautner
(There were) 20 or more dogs just running around the house. They were running freely. The rest of the dogs were all in different cages.
Kathie Johnson
This is our rest and relaxation.
Jim Crouch
Possession, it is true, crowns exertion with rest; but it is only in the illusions of fancy that it has power to charm us.
Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt
Pressure changes everything, and I'm sure just like the rest of the kids there were a lot of nerves going. But he made them when they counted.
Tim Ortelli
It's still considered experimental to do what happened with Barney Clark -- which is to put the person on the pump for the rest of their life, never intending to transplant them.
Patrick Mccarthy
The rest of the night is about them, not from them.
Joe Horrigan
Should these conditions prevail in the rest of this year, it will be a challenge to equal the record profits of 2000.
Rijkman Groenink
They just want her to rest and be well enough for the next four races. It is much better for her to get better now.
Ozren Muller
The rest of my appearance I try to keep up to snuff as much as possible, but I feel like I have my grandmother's hands.
Jody Seling
It's very apparent that anybody can win. The rest of the country has shown that, on any given day, you can be beat if you're not ready.
Herman Demmink
The league does drug testing and his results, along with the rest of the Ducks' results, came out negative.
Michael Hirsch
The secret of life is to have a task, something you devote your entire life to, something you bring everything to, every minute of the day for the rest of your life. And the most important thing is, it must be something you cannot possibly do.
Henry Moore
We played a good game today and got a lot of clutch hits and Silvestri really pitched great in relief. Districts are at the end of the month and we're right in there with everyone. Pasco has a couple games lead and then the rest of us are all bunched in there together.
Dan Garofano
You have to have the mindset that your teammates look to you to lead them. Therefore, you don't have to score all the points, but you have to get the rest of the players involved and just keep their confidence up. Everybody is on the team for a reason.
Marlon King
It's a good feeling, without a doubt, ... Being able to settle in a little bit is important. The more I'm up here, the more I can get comfortable. Being up here the rest of the season is going to be big.
Scott Baker
You're isolated from the rest of society.
Rick Glass
They obviously don't know what the rest of their life is going to be. But looking at veterans like myself, they can see they can live a normal life.
Jerry Donnellan
We constantly have to fight off allegations, when we've done nothing wrong. When frankly, it's the rest of the world.
John Lydon
It is better to be a coward for a minute than dead for the rest of your life.
Irish Sayings
That donation of land enabled us to have all our diamonds in one place, and the rest is history.
Warren Beville
She's just struggled through this because she loves the game so much and wants to play. For her, hopefully it was a memory she'll have the rest of her life.
Curtis Barney
(It's) the same at the mayor's office, ... We have a lot of trees still resting on the power lines.
Jeremy Johnson
I told the girls this is the first team that has played as a true team since I've been at Pallotti. There's no one real superstar. Everybody has off games and the rest of the team picked it up.
Debbie Skelly
The death of Pope John Paul II led many of different faiths and of no faith to acknowledge their debt to the Roman Catholic Church for holding on to absolutes that the rest of us can measure ourselves against.
Suzanne Fields
We just want to make sure he gets some rest and recovers fully.
Lindsay Crocker
But the rest is up to him to show his speed.
Rubens Barrichello
That's shows you somebody who's got guts. Sometimes it seems when you pitch to Sheffield you can't throw it hard enough, but he came back and threw the ball really well the rest of the game. He got Sheffield on a fastball that shows he's got a lot of polish.
Matt Lawton
I'm going to give her as much as rest as possible and a little bit more comfort level with her knee. Right now I don't think she's comfortable with her knee. It's healed, its fine. She needs to play 100 percent in practice before we give her a chance to play.
Devin Scruggs
Mother Parks, take your rest. You have certainly earned it.
Charles Ellis
I got the one hire in '75; I thanked my brother for making me change my mind; and the rest, as they say, is history.
Dick Bavetta
He came out of nowhere. An adrenaline rush will do it to you. That's all it takes. One good jump and you can relax for the rest of the day.
Bryan Thomas
That's the way it is. You know that's the way it's going to be. It doesn't matter what happens the rest of the season; you figure it's going to come down to the end and that's the way it's going to be.
Darin Erstad
She had a real nice game. She hit two key 3-pointers to start the third quarter to put us ahead and we stayed ahead for the rest of the game.
Henry Fleck
We expect China to remain a key driver of the nickel market and our Asia Pacific operations are ideally positioned to meet growing demand from China and the rest of Asia going forward.
Scott Hand
It is enjoyable, every match is big and that's the way you like them. It is getting very tight up there and it is going to be like that for the rest of the season.
Ledley King
Be a little pessimistic now, and assume it can happen to you. Develop a disaster plan for your home or business now so you can rest a little more easily in the future.
Carol Chastang
The starters know that they can come out of the game for a rest, and that the others won't let it slip. The reserve players know that they'll be counted on to help contribute, as well.
Jake Bacon
Cisco is a proxy for the rest of tech. They touch every level of technology in their business.
Brian Finnerty
For the most part we're exactly we're we want to be. The conditioning is there all we need now is to get some rest and see how we perform over the next two weeks.
Laura Graf
I'm drained a little bit and I've been really up and down emotionally. It's not just my family, but all my friends and their families. They're homeless. We have to try to help them figure out what to do next. The have to start over. I need to rest my mind.
Warrick Dunn
It would be good for everybody, although we would have to make sure the rest of the Scottish league would be safe and prosper.
Gordon Strachan
If they had (Johnson) it would be them and the rest of us.
Dennis Dacus
It's put a long-standing feud to rest.
Bob Foster
To hear them chanting your name feels awesome. That goal hyped us up so much. It energized us to play even harder the rest of the match. To pull this one out in overtime, I can't even begin to describe how I'm feeling. It meant a lot to us.
Chantel Hubbard
A stress fracture has been revealed on his left ankle which requires six to seven weeks rest.
Salim Altaf
This is the first time in decades that the greatest players from the rest of the world have combined their talents, and I expect them to put Australia under real pressure.
Sunil Gavaskar
Those two guys are our leaders, and they do more than just score and get rebounds and get steals. They give courage to the rest of the guys with the way they play.
Troy Graefe
I'm running because of neglect of the community, neglect of the people, neglect of the democratic principles, total neglect. It's like he thinks he's a real-life king, and he has his knights around him. What about the rest of us?
Cordelia Thorpe
It's big. We want to get home court. Detroit has separated themselves from the rest of the league. We can't get Detroit, so let's get the other. It's not too far-fetched.
Richard Jefferson
You have to be consistent. If everybody hits at the right time, you're in. The key is having the type of kids to the point where you know you're going to be in the top four or five schools going in. The rest of it is doing it that day.
Billy Peek
This was a great hockey game. Both teams played hard the entire 60 minutes and you couldn't rest for one shift.
Terry Ruskowski
The difference in this game was depth, we were able to sub some people in and out and wear them down a little bit. The fact that we're getting some decent contributions off the bench and people are able to hold down a spot for five or six minutes to give people some rest is a good thing for us.
Tim Haskins
The phone started ringing off the hook, ... The rest is history.
Byron Ferguson
Travel is like a tonic to me. It's more than just getting away from the studio for a brief rest. I need it to recharge my batteries.
Norman Rockwell
I've always done things the hard way. I was born like a piece of tangled yarn. The job is trying to untangle it, and I'll probably go on doing it for the rest of my life.
Karen Allen
Todd (Braun) and the guys prepared a great car. Hopefully we can be in this spot after the rest.
Jason Leffler
...With 9:36 left in the game, in retrospect we might have gone for two because we ended up with three more plays on offense the rest of the game. It's a lot easier looking back and analyzing going for two.
Dennis Franchione
These kids could all grow up and be rich and eat lobster the rest of their lives. And nothing will taste better than those french fries.
Al Visconti
It hooked me and the rest of the school and was our impetus to really push into the technology area.
Pat Coleman
We've put a lot of time and effort into this issue, and it's been a very fascinating subject, but it will be nice to put it to rest and get on to bigger and better things.
John Feudo
If anything, the march highlighted the human need. The challenge is getting the rest of the story out there.
Steve Williamson
It was determined at the emergency room that she would miss four to six weeks, which is basically the rest of the season. It was determined in Brooke's best interest not to rush her healing process to ensure that she would not have problems later in life with the injury recurring.
Todd Bright
We kept things positive. We got a good sweat in but mostly messed around. The guys had plenty of time to rest and relax today.
Scott Cunningham
He is just an exceptional player. I know he is a little undersized but once kids go off to college, with the regimen of resting and eating, there is no problem for him to pick up weight.
Harry Hubbard
The rest was old-fashioned shoe-leather and investigative technique.
Paul Larrabee
The U.S. would welcome any initiative to control this leftist leadership. If you look out over South America, the only country that is a staunch supporter is Colombia. The rest are lukewarm to say the least.
David Fleischer
I took my crews to the movies this afternoon to escape the blistering heat for a couple of hours. Everyone is looking forward to going home and getting quality rest.
Timothy Egan
There's not an easy game the rest of the way. Our conference is pretty competitive.
Tim Woehler
We didn't play very well defensively in the first quarter. We gave up 18 points in the first three or four minutes, but we played better the rest on the game.
Joe Shoemaker
It gives you the sense that maybe this earnings cycle is going to be like the rest, where it starts out like it's going to be terrible and it ends up looking good, ... That's been the pattern for eight quarters.
Jim Paulsen
I hope we can find a better location for these bear cubs than spending the rest of their days in the Calgary Zoo.
Barry Penner
There are only two kinds of people in the modern world who know what they are after. One, quite frankly, is the Communist. The other, equally frankly, is the convinced Christian. The rest of the world are amiable nonentities.
Geoffrey Fisher
We came out sluggish. I think you'll see a better team the rest of the way.
Nick Navratil
Although we breathe mainly through our nose when resting, during exercise when we begin breathing harder, the air coming in is predominately supplied via the mouth. It may improve airflow through the nose, but there is no evidence that it reaches the lungs and boosts performance.
Louise Sutton
It's been a big 24 hours - babies and retirements and getting walloped, so it's time to have a rest.
Dean Laidley
Education is a human right with immense power to transform. On its foundation rest the cornerstones of freedom, democracy and sustainable human development.
Kofi Annan
Justice is too good for some people and not good enough for the rest.
George Norman Douglas
That's not the way to act. Richard's an excitable guy, but he's a good guy. It's unfortunate he didn't get to see the rest of the game.
Rick Frazier
We are still investigating how these items were to be used, but you can rest assured they were not for peaceful purposes.
Julie Myers
I'm taking some time off for a little rest and then I'll consider a number of options. I want to go slowly. There are a number of possibilities and I hope there will be more. I want to consider them carefully and slowly.
Martin Mcguinn
[Chris Gratton, a key player on the Panthers' power kill earlier in the year, returned to the lineup after missing the previous three games after injuring himself Oct. 13 against the Bruins.] I kind of strained a groin muscle, groin hamstring, ... The only thing you can do for those is just rest them.
Chris Gratton
