You will survive and you will be a better human for it.

Andrew Logan

The early stage of financing and getting off to a good start ... Ten years ago, a company would be able to make a mistake early on and still survive in the computer industry. That's not the case now.

It was the only way to survive the era of unbelievably cheap oil.

Matthew Simmons

Certainly he should have been taken to a hospital and he wasn't. Certainly, people do survive severe burns, but they need to get to a burn center. In this case that care was deliberately denied.

Jim Leljedal

Overconfidence - Before you attempt to beat the odds, be sure you could survive the odds beating you.

Larry Kersten

The most practical way to become famous is to survive a major tragedy.

Dirceu Alves Ferreira

Our studies indicate that the trend that is the defining characteristic of human evolution--the growth of brain size and complexity--is likely still going on. Meanwhile, our environment and the skills we need to survive in it are changing faster then we ever imagined. I would expect the human brain, which has done well by us so far, will continue to adapt to those changes.

Bruce T. Lahn

The schedule was more difficult this year including duals with schools much larger than Logan-Magnolia. Going against tougher competition raised our level (of wrestling) to survive and prepared us better for the state tournament.

Kent Kersten

Voluptuaries, consumed by their senses, always begin by flinging themselves with a great display of frenzy into an abyss. But they survive, they come to the surface again. And they develop a routine of the abyss: ''It's four o clock. At five I have my abyss... ''.

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

If these trends do not change, there is little hope that the great biodiversity of this unique ecosystem, discovered just 35 years ago, will survive another decade.

Grant Gilmore

Some people are mistaken, they think birds need feed to survive, but they don't. The main reason to feed birds is to enjoy them.

Maggie Jones

This could be Ozark next year. All of us small towns in the South survive day-to-day. It's tough. Just meeting your obligations, its hand-to-mouth. If we got hit by a storm, we'd be in awful shape. I'd just hope other towns like ours would come help us.

Bob Bunting

What makes literature interesting is that it does not survive its translation. The characters in a novel are made out of the sentences. That's what their substance is.

Jonathan Miller

The first set was very tough, Luis played incredible well and I wasn't close to getting a break point. I had to survive and hang in there waiting for my chances. The chance came right away in the second set, and I picked up my game and I was controlling it until the end of the match.

Radek Stepanek

Funds of hedge funds will have to evolve to survive ... It won't happen big bang, but through competitive forces.

Bill Maldonado

Nobody can misunderstand a boy like his own mother. Mothers at present can bring children into the world, but this performance is apt to mark the end of their capacities. They can't even attend to the elementary animal requirements of their offspring. It is quite surprising how many children survive in spite of their mothers.

George Norman Douglas

All of this allows me to pinpoint the ideal supplement, dosage and duration. The body is designed to survive. All I have to do is look for what's missing and supply it.

Anne Menard

A lot of this is about ensuring that native people in Hawaii are going to be able to survive into the next generation, that they're going to be healthy and have what all people in America expect.

Rev. Kaleo Patterson

It takes a real soldier to stay in the music industry and live off the things that have been put before me and be able to survive all this time because it has not been easy.

Chubby Checker

The values by which we are to survive are not rules for just and unjust conduct, but are those deeper illuminations in whose light justice and injustice, good and evil, means and ends are seen in fearful sharpness of outline.
