One common mistake that people make is they think that they're checked-in for the flight if they've simply checked their bags and that's not always the case.

Chris Mcginnis

Judicial action might simply encourage congressmen to run to court any time they disagreed with presidential action [on a treaty or other foreign relations issue] or were on the losing end of a piece of legislation.

John Bates

The keeper has trained with us and did fine. We're simply having a look at him.

John Mcglynn

If there was a level of community outrage against these individuals, then that may increase the argument for moving it or simply delaying it for a day, a week, a month, or whenever.

Byron Warnken

The key is that your friend needs to help you sort out your thoughts and help you problem-solve and move to the next stage. Simply ruminating with a friend is not going to help.

Carla Grayson

We know there are many misconceptions on the part of consumers when it comes to long-term care insurance. They think the insurance is too expensive, they often think it is only for old people and they often believe they can simply pay these bills from their own savings.

Deborah Rice

The big thing simply is that demand from China for key base metals is rising by more than 20% a year and there is just not enough new product coming on – so it's economics 101.

Donald Coxe

Health is not simply the absence of sickness.

Hannah Green

Bears needn't be feared, nor should they be dismissed as harmless. They simply need to be respected.

Mark Ternent

I simply don't think that resources shares have priced in all of the potential for even further commodities price hikes yet.

Hans Kunnen

We know there are more local people with good ideas who simply need a bit of confidence and advice to take them forward. They can see others have done it and they're ready to have a go themselves.

Matt Smith

This shows the average American that he doesn't have to simply sit back and take the trash being offered on TV, but he can get involved and fight back with his pocketbook.

Donald Wildmon

This is such a pervasive problem. The Department of Juvenile Justice simply fails to adequately monitor or maintain their facilities.

Dennis Higgins

Stockholders are earning very healthy returns. There is simply no need for huge rate increases for consumers.

Pat Clark

It can be difficult, ... If you had it since you were a kid, then you have had to deal with the pressure or stigma of being labeled slow or not committed, or simply having had your head up your (behind) or in the clouds.

George Mason

This is simply one more in a string of defeats for the radical homosexual agenda in the greater Charlotte area. The Church of Jesus Christ has come out of the closet and, and because it has, the homosexual community is steadily moving back into it.

Rev. Flip Benham

There are many options being thrown around - some better than others - but the bottom line is we have to do something because number one, we simply don't have the room any more and number two, we have to bring these schools up to ADA standards.

Ray Fleming

In times of difficulty, Lafontaine simply takes his clothes off and runs away.

Gerhard Schr

It's simply that we've had a very strong run in the past couple of weeks and you've got a natural correction from that. You've got some overseas investors beginning to take a little profit.

Garry Evans

Some entertainers simply don't know much about history. The fact is that there were no Jews in Hitler's hierarchy, the policies of America and Israel are not similar to those of Hitler, and African-American conservatives are not comparable to Nazis.

Rafael Medoff

This will simply mean more delays. When you have this hanging over your head how can you do things like due diligence? Nobody will sign off on this when it is still up in the air.

Paul Budde

I think it will have to be cut into pieces simply to be moved out of there.

Gary Loveman

If the constitution is adopted, it will be over the objections of the Sunni leadership. To expect that to be able to resolve the insurgency is simply unrealistic.

Jonathan Brown

There do have to be end dates, and it is actually helpful to folks to move on in their recovery process. ... FEMA is not putting anyone out [of a hotel]. FEMA is simply ending the subsidy.

Libby Turner

Higher tax rates, you get more casino, less resort. Lower tax rates, you get more resort, with a casino. It's simply a matter of capital investment.

Jan Jones

These pricing schemes are simply poorly disguised discrimination. Requiring Internet companies to pay for high-speed access to the Internet when they're already charging consumers for the same service means consumers will ultimately pay twice.

Ben Scott

Supermarkets are rapidly becoming a shopping destination in their own right for products such as DVDs and CDs, rather than them simply being added to the trolley with the weekly shop.

Lucy Burton

We simply cannot allow for it to continue to kill our jobs and, frankly, to move our kids out of state.

Dick Devos

Some persons talk simply because they think sound is more manageable than silence.

Margaret Halsey

On such an important security matter, it's simply not enough for the administration to ask us to trust them. Everyone I speak to raises it.

Mark Souder

This ad simply lays out the facts about the corruption allegations against DeLay that go way beyond the campaign finance charges he is facing in court. Rep. DeLay cannot intimidate stations to prevent public discussion of the serious charges leveled against him.

Roger Hickey

There was no cause to terminate her. They simply concluded that they did not need representation this session.

Don Donadio

The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply.

Kahlil Gibran

A sportsman is a man who, every now and then, simply has to go out and kill something.

Stephen Leacock

Without being certain of the results in Florida, we simply cannot be certain of the results of the national election.

William Daley

We were very disappointed, especially offensively. We just simply did not hit the ball.

Bryan Kramer

These members have done great harm to the Olympic ideal. Now the greatest service to the Olympic movement is simply to accept their fate.

Juan Antonio Samaranch

There's no sign that investor demand has softened at all. The things that would have caused a slower housing market, such as higher mortgage rates, simply aren't present, and we're now almost halfway through the year.

David Berson

If they are taking out patents on knowledge that is widely available here in the public domain, that is simply not on. If societies have been using it for centuries why should it be patented.

Shiv Basant

Not our best effort. We had enough fresh legs in there that conditioning was definitely not a problem. The execution simply wasn't very good, especially on the power play.

Steve Stirling

Don Huston coached basketball at Curtis for years and once told me to let your athletes play, to give them free reign to perform. With Isaiah, I have to let him go because I couldn't reign him in anyway. He simply does things other kids can't do.

Lindsay Bemis

They played inspired defense. They simply took it to us.

Ben Marsh

Cesar lost his nerve. He saw time being wasted and he simply didn't control his impulses.

Victor Munoz

Some left because they simply couldn't handle the catastrophe.

Warren Riley

We're dialing 911. We cannot pay you to protect our water and have you use it to destroy our water ... We simply don't find it acceptable to have the solution to our 911 call be PR campaigns and pitting us against each other.

Carla Johnson

All time is all time. It does not change. It does not lend itself to warnings or explanations. It simply is. Take it moment by moment, and you will find that we are all, as I've said before, bugs in amber.

Kurt Vonnegut

It may simply be that New York is a state where there's more agreement that we're responsible for one another to some degree, and that may not be so strongly felt in other parts of the country.

Joel Diemond

Filmmakers are feeling distant and alienated from the direction of the country. It's important for Hollywood to both entertain and reach out and touch upon subjects that are not simply about the American Dream.

Joe Roth

Our first and gravest priority is simply to ensure that no other Marine is asked to give his life until this aircraft is safe and until it is determined to be ready for the Marine Corps' mission.

Brian Nelson

In the media, accomplishing beauty can simply mean a mere wave of an airbrush correcting what is flawed; but in real world, innermost beauty is perfectly flawless.

Vanese Henley

My good health is due to a soup made of white doves. It is simply wonderful as a tonic.

Madame Chiang Kai shek

We simply have got to start paying for people to do that kind of work.

Dale Friedman

I do not quote from the scriptures;I simply see what I see.

K. Ashraful Kabir

That ruling doesn't simply hit innocent men now in their fifth year of imprisonment. It goes to whether we have a judicial branch at all. This is that rare question so vital that the Supreme Court should immediately intervene to answer.

Sabin Willett

Kenny had to read the newspaper to his dad every night. These guys (fathers) were brilliant men but simply had no education. Kenny's dad did not want to be ignorant even if he could not read, so Kenny read that paper to him every day.

Jim Coiner

I call my trainers educators. It's crucial for my stylists to learn how to talk to clients, do a good diagnosis and understand what clients have in mind even if the latter are not articulate or expressive, or simply don't know.

Caroline Lannuzel

The actual infinite arises in three contexts: first when it is realized in the most complete form, in a fully independent otherworldly being, in Deo, where I call it the Absolute Infinite or simply Absolute; second when it occurs in the contingent, created world; third when the mind grasps it in abstracto as a mathematical magnitude, number or order type.

Georg Cantor

The federal government can simply come up with a court order that will force Lazaro Gonzalez to comply or otherwise face the prospect of going to jail.

Tim Padgett

It may just simply not be cost-effective to maintain the physical trading floor.

Bill Cline

With the economy as good as it's been, small employers simply haven't been able to attract and retain good employees if they don't have a 401(k) plan.

Bill Carey

There's simply no substitute for interviewing several potential listing agents before you hire one. If you notice that the agent is doing all the talking and none of the listening, move on to the next.

Ray Brown

In order simply to stay ahead, most companies, in most sectors, are probably involved in some technological advance - perhaps product development or process improvements through the introduction of a new technology.

David W. Cobb

Nature is sending us messages. The idea of repeatedly throwing federal dollars at rebuilding the infrastructure in some of these places is crazy. There are certain areas where we simply should retreat.

Rob Young

Automakers' extremely generous incentives in recent weeks have simply drawn forward industry demand.

Darren Kimball

It is simply, and solely, the abundance of money within a state [which] makes the difference in its grandeur and power.

Jean Baptiste Colbert

Think that the best way to [deal with the disaster] is simply to write a huge check to the very government agency that failed so spectacularly.

Byron Paulson

Minds do not act together in public; they simply stick together; and when their private activities are resumed, they fly apart again.

Grover Cleveland

It's not the people, ... It's not the individuals who show up at the game and buy the tickets. The people are great. It's the business, or lack of, that's the primary factor. For whatever reason, the area simply does not have many strong and large businesses.

Marc Ganis

You simply can't keep up with the technology, ... so the laws won't apply.

Vint Cerf

The stakes in this war on terrorism simply couldn't be higher.

Richard Myers

There is an argument that both sides are simply going through the motions to convince the international community they have exhausted peaceful options but that both really have decided conflict is inevitable.

Rohan Edrisinha

It is simply too early to tell.

Stephen Koukoulas

She simply snuck in and bought them.

Nicholas Serota

Here in the United States, our profession is much maligned, people simply don't trust or like journalists anymore and that's sad.

Christiane Amanpour

I pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Today's figures show that in the fourth quarter of 2005, consumers simply ran out of steam. When consumers are burdened with heavy debt loads, rising interest rates, higher energy costs, no personal savings and household income growth that falls below inflation, something had to give.

Christian Weller

Neither an assembly line nor a stock market nor an oil well did it, simply what came from one small skull and that one right hand.

Ilka Chase

Today's figures show that in the fourth quarter of 2005, consumers simply ran out of steam.

Christian Weller

This kind of evaluation is in some ways a more objective way of measuring the body's response to pain, as opposed to simply asking someone if they feel pain.

Charles Emery

The goal is to simply give the governor and the commissioner of education an opportunity to have face-to-face conversations with teachers and higher education employees who are basically in the trenches every day.

Mark Gray

Our message is simply: that we should try and get out of the present downward spiral.

Karan Singh

The U.S. government unfairly deported thousands of immigrants after the Sept. 11 attacks, simply because they were from Muslim countries, and were at the wrong place at the wrong time. For each, there was a network of children, parents, siblings, neighbours and community who depended on him.

Anthony D. Romero

You simply didn't have to pay as much attention to things. The precise pose was no longer required.

Bret Easton Ellis

To get their name on a brick, athletes simply need to collect $100 in donations. Included on the brick are their name, their hometown and the year they purchased the brick.

Michele Henson

I think people should attend (Cascade of Talent) simply because of the variety of acts. It really is showcasing the talent of the youth in this area.

Jan Mader

We simply don't have the catalyst to drive this market to another level.

Maureen Mccarthy

It's part of the mythology surrounding the music business that spending huge amounts of marketing monies will ensure commercial success. This simply isn't so. If the music isn't compelling from the audience's perspective, no amount of spending will make it a hit.

Al Teller

My basic rule is to speak slowly and simply so that my audience has an opportunity to follow and think about what I am saying.

Margaret Chase Smith

A capacity reduction is essential and everyone knows it, not only for protection of the resource itself but for the ability of any single captain to make a living. At present, it simply is not working.

Glen Spain

The possibility of a settlement with Arthur Andersen presented many complicated and interconnected issues that required the agreement of numerous parties. Despite our extensive efforts, in the end these simply could not be worked out. Without their resolution, any settlement would have worked to the detriment of the class.

Trey Davis

I'm confident we are going to have a great festival under any (weather) conditions. We are not dependent on snow or cold weather to pull this festival off; snow would simply be the icing on the cake.

Jonathan Witz

Now we do not believe that Sen. Lott is a racist, ... But such thoughtless remarks -- and the senator has an unfortunate history of such gaffes -- simply reinforce the suspicion that conservatives are closet racists and secret segregationists.

Ken Connor

Simply surviving in this business is a feat.

Lou Diamond Phillips

Technology causes problems as well as solves problems. Nobody has figured out a way to ensure that, as of tomorrow, technology won't create problems. Technology simply means increased power, which is why we have the global problems we face today.

Jared Diamond

It appears many insurers would be severely damaged, if not bankrupted, by a disproportionate share of a $10 billion loss. We believe that a certain amount of insurers may simply withdraw from writing certain lines of business.

Alice Schroeder

Shelby did a good job of defending (Daniel) McPherson, who is one of the best players in our region. It seemed like the buckets had lids on them in the fourth quarter, because we had some good looks that simply bounced out.

Jimmy Wallace

Genuine politics -- even politics worthy of the name -- the only politics I am willing to devote myself to -- is simply a matter of serving those around us: serving the community and serving those who will come after us. Its deepest roots are moral because it is a responsibility expressed through action, to and for the whole.

Vaclav Havel

Do you think my mind is maturing late,Or simply rotted early?

Ogden Nash

My area of the world is the East End. I simply got a better offer from Stony Brook.

Roger Rosenblatt

As friends and neighbors, we should be honest with each other about the rapidly degenerating situation along the border and the near-lawlessness in some parts. The bottom line is that we simply can't allow drug traffickers to place in jeopardy the lives of our citizens and the safety of our communities.

Antonio Garza

Our research shows that the number-one reason why qualified voters don't go to the polls on Election Day is not that they don't care, but that folks simply don't know enough about the candidates. The State Judicial Voter Guide goes a long way to empower voters with the facts they need to cast a confident ballot.

Chris Heagarty

But when I called them, they told me I couldn't just simply sign up for the race. I had to prove myself and qualify. I've never run a marathon before, so I had to finish some so I could begin the application process.

David Goggins

I am very reluctant to see internal stuff revealed except where there is some clear public reason for doing so, ... No one seriously thinks that Roberts is a raving lunatic, and as a pragmatic matter he is simply not going to be defeated. So neither on public nor partisan grounds do I think that my presumption of confidentiality is overcome.

Jefferson Powell

The truth is not simply what you think it is; it is also the circumstances in which it is said, and to whom, why and how it is said.

Vaclav Havel

I think by year 2007, if he is blocked, he will simply criticize the LY, opposition, and take (the new constitution) directly to the public and bind it with the presidential election.

Su Chi

On the other hand, the idea that this is simply a public health issue belies the fact, I think, what is really at stake. Is this an appropriate an appropriate thing for local government to do? They (government) could outlaw bathing in private homes if they wanted to.

Steve Wulf

Courts continue to recognize that class actions are inappropriate in tobacco litigation because of the overwhelming number of individual issues. Medical monitoring class actions are simply no different.

William Ohlemeyer

By chartering a whole ship we can create a community that simply doesn't exist on land. Our specialty is reinventing the cruise experience for our customers, editing it down until it's virtually unrecognizable.

Rich Campbell

[John Montgomery, director for the Developer Division at Microsoft, laid it out even more simply.] The story, in a nutshell, is there's a complex ecosystem that sits around developing applications and making money off of them, ... And Microsoft has shown itself [to be] pretty good time and again at figuring out how people can make money off of its products.

John Montgomery

We have been expected by a significant segment of our population to do our due diligence - and not simply sit around and wait. You can't wait. You've got to do the proper planning up front.

Wendell Coleman

We didn't have an answer for Ms. Hayward. She simply dominated in the midfield. She was very good in the air and that made a big difference.

Todd Turcotte

The [telecom] companies simply are just not spending on networks right now because they're short of cash.

Richard Windsor

Given the circumstances -- the recent attack on the Cole and the generally higher level of threat throughout that region, we thought it was simply the prudent thing to do.

Craig Quigley

Part of it is his resume, part of it is his announcement bounce, part of it may simply be that he's a fresh face. He is, after all, the flavor of the month.

Keating Holland

Maybe we are not seeing the full effects today (of SS), but if we look forward unto tomorrow, we can actually avert an economic catastrophe, ... If we delay, hoping the problem will go away, we are simply inviting disaster.

John Hostettler

I'm not a big worrier simply because it doesn't do anything for you. If I thought it was productive, I'd worry. It's a matter of getting our hockey club to play consistent hockey.

Greg Puhalski

This race is simply too close to call, ... Let me say I have been in politics a very long time, but I don't think there has ever been a night like this one.

Bill Daley

I'm told by some people close to him that this will not be a Kerry-bashing speech. But he's not going to simply rally around Bush. Indeed it's going to be the story of an immigrant coming to this country and finding a country that's embraced him and a party that's embraced him.

David R. Gergen

We do clearly want to send a message to would-be illegal operators that it is simply not worth your while to come into Australian waters and fish illegally.

Ian Macdonald

One wishes that he would say the problem is not simply a budgetary one. The problem is a structural one. The Republicans can properly fault the Clinton administration for giving so little attention to the restructuring of the post-Cold War force.

Andrew Bacevich

A lot of channels would simply not survive.

Preston Padden

It appears that I don't have much choice as to what I want to do. It seems that I have no other alternatives. ... I may as well go ahead with the present counsel, not because I want to, but simply there are no better alternatives.

Theodore Kaczynski

Gamers will compete for cash and prizes totaling more than $2 million simply by playing versions of their favorite skill-based games.

Paul Jensen

There's simply nothing to that, ... The dynamics in the board of management are absolutely fantastic. This isn't a German or an American thing.

Robert Eaton

We aren't at all opposed to disciplining Microsoft, but we think a breakup is simply too harsh. We continue to believe that a more appropriate remedy would relate to behavioral changes, government changes and perhaps an economic hit.

Mary Meeker

I didn't train to make the Olympic team until 1968. I simply trained for the moment. I never even imagined I would be an Olympic athlete. It always seemed to evolve.

Dick Fosbury

Our goal is to market the unique quality attributes of Florida honey, ... We want to raise consumer awareness about Florida honey and its value as a distinct product, not simply part of a mix.

Charles Bronson

Our study provides compelling evidence that cancers hidden beneath the skin can be detected simply by [dogs] examining the odors of a person's breath.

Michael Mcculloch

Plain and simply, we care what our city looks like. They think they can get away with some of that because they have in the past, and it's time to address some of that.

Susan Kirk

It makes the hearings even more important, ... It raises the bar higher, simply because the job is even higher. Chief justice is at another level.

Herb Kohl

Whatever the government says about improving infrastructure, building schools and other essential services the fact is it just simply doesn't have the money. Servicing public debt alone last year (interest and amortization) ate up 95 percent of total revenues.

Ben Diokno

What a player! We just simply couldn't stop him.

Thane Graves

The Line-Item Veto Act is hardly revolutionary, ... The act simply gives the president a measure of discretion over the expenditure of appropriated funds.

Seth Waxman

The lawsuits that result from faulty products in this field can bring a company down. Any way you go in this, the only thing you'll wind up with is happy trial lawyers, because this thing is about to explode. It simply doesn't lend itself to a kiss and make up resolution.

David Berg

I found that one of the greatest educations you can get comes by working with people, ... You learn a lot about people simply by talking to them. Besides, I like working with my hands and being creative.

Frank Ford

Nuclear power cannot save the world from climate change. Returning to nuclear will simply hamper real action to reduce energy demand, develop better alternatives and tackle climate chaos.

Duncan Mclaren

There are formidable risks in trying to cover this conflict. Large swaths of the country are simply too dangerous to cover.

Joel Campagna

If you were to look at Alaska simply with its corporate tax code compared to the rest of the United States, it would rank very poorly because it's a very complicated corporate tax system, very high tax rates, but that is offset and balanced by the fact that Alaska does not have a personal income tax and does not have a sales tax.

Scott Hodge

More simply and efficiently respond to pastoral needs.

Angelo Scola

I simply do not support this.

Jonah Brown

I only heard of a (few) people that asked about the free gas, and most of them suspected it was simply too good to be true.

Jennifer Harris

You cannot stop to ponder. You just can't. If you do, you fail. You simply stop.

Viktor Sukhodrev

I'm not a social-issues conservative. For me the issue is the size and scope of government, and those who believe the size and scope should be larger are simply not Republicans.

Jon Caldara

Our interest is in making sure that whoever is either going to acquire and run the business, or simply run the business, is a qualified party. Capital wherewithal, experience and knowledge, integrity, and the qualifications of key management would all be important considerations.

Craig Donohue

The dynamics, in the sense of who he is and the fact that they haven't been able to get any momentum to oppose his nomination, isn't going to change simply because he's now being nominated for chief justice, ... I think that's the reason, quite frankly, why he was nominated for chief justice.

Christopher Murray

In my view, the standardized tests we'd want to distribute on a national level simply do not exist.

Joe Glover

The results are simply stunning.

Gabriel Hortobagyi

These lower-premium plans can mask hidden costs for federal employees, ... The cheaper premium is usually coupled with higher deductibles, meaning federal workers will simply pay higher out-of-pocket costs or avoid visiting the doctor.

Colleen Kelley

I save 15 to 20 percent fuel money every week purely and simply by using a few simple tips.

John Taylor

To a certain extent, the people in the Workers Party despise the give-and-take of the democratic process. They found it was a lot more expedient to simply buy people off.

David Fleischer

We should be seeing literally tens of thousands of seal pups out here, and at best, we've seen maybe a couple of hundred. The seals simply aren't out here.

Rebecca Aldworth

There are too many Republicans in this race and the people of our state simply cannot risk a continuation of the Gray Davis legacy.

Bill Simon

The fundamental problem is they simply don't save as much oil as they could. They fall far short of what's technically feasible and economically feasible.

David Doniger

Had this been handled expeditiously, quickly, it might have been a story on the style page, or limited to the late night comedians and the cartoonists. There's simply no question they fumbled this one.

Stephen Hess

Adam simply knows how to score. It was obvious as the season went on last year that his presence was felt more and more.

Mark Few

I had no stratagems, no tricks. You are simply obliged to put up with it, you have no choice.

Florence Aubenas

A stock exchange that can't carry on trading simply doesn't deserve to exist. The exchange should make it a top priority to bring business back to normal.

Kaoru Yosano

Before Munich, we were simply terrorists. After Munich, at least people started asking, 'Who are these terrorists? What do they want?' Before Munich, nobody had the slightest idea about Palestine.

Abu Daoud

If consumers would simply maintain the minimum balance requirement, they wouldn't get hit with monthly fees and wouldn't bounce checks. You want to find a bank that has a minimum balance requirement you can meet.

Stephen Brobeck

Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand, as if it were necessary to understand, when it is simply necessary to love.

Claude Monet

I think we did pretty well. We simply can't compete with the depth of Alta. What it boils down to is the overall numbers, but for our varsity and as far as qualifying for state, we are right where we want to be.

Ted Sierer

If you could give yourself one new present in the new year, I would say buy a new set of dishes and make the salad plates your main plates. Dinner plates are so large we just fill them up. We simply eat too much of everything.

John Hastings

If your child isn't ready to hear the truth, they simply won't accept it -- or if they're very young, they may truly not even comprehend what you are saying.

Helen Egger

By every measure, our people did a superb job executing in what was really a very difficult environment: simply put, there was just a bunch of freight out there.

Peter Rose

Men simply copied the realities of their hearts when they built prisons.

Richard Wright

People come here to simply try and do well at whatever level they are capable of doing. It helps the younger kids get older and wiser. It helps the older guys feel younger.

Gwyn Howat

We went up to the bar, and they said three of us couldn't get in, ... We had three international students with us who had passports, and they said it wasn't an acceptable form of ID. They felt they were being discriminated against simply because they were international students.

Susan White

It may be that they are simply unable to read them.

David Skuse

We simply don't want residents and tourists to see the Royal Mile in this kind of shape.

Donald Anderson

What this simply means is that appeal ends the administration process, and the next step is judicial.

Jay Edwards

Propel, propel, propel your craft softly down liquid solution. Ecstatically, ecstatically, ecstatically, ecstatically, existence is simply illusion.

Fred Rogers

This isn't simply a public relations strategy to pretty up an image. Rather, it is an energetic attempt to tell our story and also become a better company in the process.

Mona Williams

(We have) seven strong returning players with much experience and four new additional players to complement them. We must simply do our job and get it done.

Candace Kimmett

Celebrity-worship and hero-worship should not be confused. Yet we confuse them every day, and by doing so we come dangerously close to depriving ourselves of all real models. We lose sight of the men and women who do not simply seem great because they are famous but are famous because they are great. We come closer and closer to degrading all fame into notoriety.

Daniel J. Boorstin

We hear year after year that this is the year that Congress is going to act. Simply hoping Congress will act is no longer good enough. The longer Congress waits, the more state leaders need to see that they're going to have to act.

Cameron Davis

My lawyer simply filed the document in an effort to get our lien involved in the existing Walbridge foreclosure process.

Chuck Madden

We are simply a family that now feels very threatened.

Gloria Estefan

Texting comes in addition to sending letters, ... Nothing can replace a handwritten letter checking in on a player. It's an electronic message that's not really as personal. And unless a player can really trust a program, they won't go there. And I don't think we can earn that trust by simply sending messages.

Bruce Chambers

I never lecture, not because I am shy or a bad speaker, but simply because I detest the sort of people who go to lectures and don't want to meet them.

H. L. Mencken

I'm saddened by the fact that there are some people, actors and directors whom I idolize, that I will never get to meet, much less share screen time. Gone are Katherine Hepburn, Anthony Quinn, Gregory Peck and many more, not to mention the many icons whose careers are simply slowing down.

Lou Diamond Phillips

I think we've all grown up and it's simply time to leave home.

Brenda Hampton

Portfolio performance for a calendar year can often be improved by simply selling the worst performers at the end of January.

Chip Dickson

Much of the Midwest is at the bottom of the rankings because the Midwest is heavy in manufacturing, and that sector simply hasn't done well over the years. Manufacturing is seeing some growth but isn't creating jobs like other sectors.

Skip Rimer

Time will tell whether that is a deal that is going to make sense for my competitor or simply make sense for Howard Stern.

Hugh Panero

Simply washing your hands during cold and flu season is a much more effective way of preventing colds.

David Kroll

The bombings in London very much shocked public opinion in Europe. It's completely normal for a government to be strong and apply the law. What we are asking is that it is simply just.

Dalil Boubakeur

Simply doing my job.

William Henry Hudson

The biggest reason for teaching this course is simply for fun and to learn a little more about art history myself by creating some art.

Lars Jones

Rightly or wrongly, advertisers have concluded that a little rectangular banner is simply not intrusive enough, and it's too easy for consumers to just mentally block them out.

Jim Nail

It is simply to request equal treatment.

Jeff Alexander

He must accept responsibility for his hand in what our citizens clearly consider to be government corruption. Even if no laws have been broken, there are simply too many scandals.

Brock Winslow

I do not like to force property owners to go to different schools simply because of new growth. Let people do it on a voluntary basis.

Jennifer Faliero

The cities will also benefit simply because we have explored places like Milan and Barcelona and Paris and so on, and it is time to move on to more exotic places like Budapest and Ljubljana.

Simon Calder

We simply aired their statements.

Maria Ressa

Given the damage that just one oil spill or wrecked rig could do to shore communities that are heavily dependent on clean beach and ocean environments, it seems to me that undoing coastal moratoria is simply not worth it.

Frank Pallone

I think what Mr. West said provided one extreme that we should examine, ... I think a lot of things were said that needed to be said and we raised the money. That's why we were here simply to raise money and we did.
