Henrik Ibsen
There is no secret formula; they just do things better than everyone else, ... They have scouted and evaluated their own players, and other players, better than any other team in recent memory.
Dean Taylor
The secret to our longevity is that we all like each other. When we're not working together we're not around one another. It shouldn't be about the money, it should be about how much you enjoy what you're doing and who you're doing it with.
George Millar
It's a cabal over there. It's just a secret little society that does business behind closed doors.
Bob Durgin
The Secret Life of Bees.
Sue Monk Kidd
I love to go out there and look at those bricks and imagine the stories behind them. There are bricks out there that clearly have secret messages and hidden messages to those who they are for, and there are some there for their family.
Camille Ramsey
Last year, we had a team full of young guys that didn't understand discipline. That's why we were 2-14. It's no secret.
Fred Beasley
The secret of boring people lies in telling them everything.
Anton Chekhov
Do any of us, except in our dreams, truly expect to be reunited with our hearts' deepest loves, even when they leave us only for minutes , and on the most mundane of errands? No, not at all. Each time they go from our sight we in our secret hearts count them as dead. Having been given so much , we reason, how could we not be brought as low as Lucifer for the staggering presumption of our love?
Stephen King
You hit a bunch of keys at random to see why the system seems to have hung; you don't realize that the system has turned off echo so that you can type your secret encryption key, ... I've seen people try for hours to bang the keyboard in the exact same way.
Paul Rubin
Used to, we were the best-kept secret. We aren't a secret anymore.
Bruce Walker
I opened it at page 96 - the secret page on which I write my name to catch out borrowers and book-sharks.
Flann O'brien
The secret of our success is that we never, never give up.
Wilma Mankiller
We've kept it a secret. As a coach, I didn't want him thinking about it. Now that he only has four points to go, it's not the worst thing in the world that he knows.
John O'connell
When we come into the present, we begin to feel the life around us again, but we also encounter whatever we have been avoiding. We must have the courage to face whatever is present / our pain, our desires, our grief, our loss, our secret hopes our love / everything that moves us most deeply.
Jack Kornfield
The days have gone where the NHS could act as a secret society. It cannot operate behind closed doors.
Alan Milburn
Just ensures that the unscrupulous companies that are . . . violating people's privacy [through secret monitoring] are reined in.
Chris Christiansen
It comes every year and will go on forever. And along with Christmas belong the keepsakes and the customs. Those humble, everyday things a mother clings to, and ponders, like Mary in the secret spaces of her heart.
Marjorie Holmes
It's too early to judge the truth of the report. But this time it looks like it's not based on an anonymous source but on a military report that, though secret, actually exists.
Max Stadler
It's like worrying about anvils dropping on automobiles. There are all kinds of attacks like these but they are only relevant to top secret organizations.
Peter Tippett
NECTAR, n. A drink served at banquets of the Olympian deities. The secret of its preparation is lost, but the modern Kentuckians believe that they come pretty near to a knowledge of its chief ingredient. Juno drank a cup of nectar, But the draught did not affect her. Juno drank a cup of rye -- Then she bad herself good-bye. J.G.
Ambrose Bierce
Woodrow Wilson called for leaders who, by boldly interpreting the nation's conscience, could lift a people out of their everyday selves. That people can be lifted into their better selves is the secret of transforming leadership.
James Macgregor Burns
It is not a secret that Nashville has seen an increase in the rate of murders and armed robberies. Those trends and those numbers overall must end.
Bill Purcell
To unfold the secret laws and relations of those high faculties of thought by which all beyond the merely perceptive knowledge of the world and of ourselves is attained or matured, is a object which does not stand in need of commendation to a rational mind.
George Boole
It's an open secret that Prince Charles was deeply opposed to the war in Iraq and holds very different views on the environment.
Robert Lacey
If there are ways in which we can make Qaddafi nervous, why shouldn't we? That is not deceiving you, but just using your predictable tendencies to report things that we try to keep secret.
George P. Shultz
The secret of man's being is not only to live but to have something to live for.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
It's potentially very significant because it's no secret that there's a split in organized labor. The NEA, which has potentially millions of members, is essentially choosing a side.
Andrew Rotherham
Some of the things on there were pretty frightening. It's that secret life of teens that we don't know about.
Michael Short
You have to have a secret... There is a hidden movie in all the best films. The secret is in every frame... in a good movie, there is always a shadow movie underneath the text, which allows the film to float above reality.
Sam Mendes
ALDERMAN, n. An ingenious criminal who covers his secret thieving with a pretence of open marauding.
Ambrose Bierce
This was about as secret as you could get.
Richard Breitman
We were due for a game offensively. It's no secret we've struggled to score the last couple weeks. It just helped that we were able to get some good shots early. To have six players in double figures scoring, that's a fantasy for me.
Joe Mckeown
Ever heard Victoria's REAL secret? Too much support hurts.
R. Stevens
It's not a secret that when the ball starts going through the hoop good things happen.
Andy Gesteland
The reason that the law is set up with secret ballots is that it's too easy to compromise someone's intention.
Patrick Berman
I built up an excellent relationship with Jon when I was at Hawthorn and it's no secret we attempted to recruit him once before.
Chris Connolly
There was no specific intelligence inputs on this attack - the terrorists keep their operation top secret or else there will be no attack at all.
Alok Sinha
The toughest thing is that, you know, we're a little bit lean on our marketing dollars, and we're pressed on our expense dollars across the board in order to run the business, so we've become a little bit of the world's best-kept secret.
Wally Smith
The secret to keeping a series going.
Tess Gerritsen
I want to go out at the top, but the secret is knowing when you're at the top, it's so difficult in this business, your career fluctuates all the time, up and down, like a pair of trousers.
Rod Stewart
I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love.
Viktor Frankl
I hope the community will see that there are an array of opportunities to help us here, ... I want the community to feel that there has been a ratcheting up of the visibility of this campus. We are still a well-kept secret to some.
Karen Haynes
We really want to see the building be a lot busier. The Betsey is the best kept secret in Marietta.
Linda Lewis
Being the best-kept secret is not a good strategy when you're in the tourism industry.
David Kenney
If they have been meeting in secret for a month, those meetings are subject to the Sunshine, which means public notice, public participation and minutes. The documents are a public record. There is no doubt about that. Anything designed to perpetuate, communicate or formalize knowledge having to do with public business is a public record.
Barbara Petersen
Over here, at its peak, it was the mainstream thing, whereas at home it was always a bit of an underground secret. People here don't seem to be in awe of it like we are, still.
James Hunter
All they said is they wanted to see everything connected with the case. It was a fishing expedition and an attempt to use a news reporter as a secret deputy of detectives.
Ralph Kates
He has a duty to tell the other directors. Why does it have to be a secret if it's up and up? ... It definitely could raise ethical questions of what the hell is going on.
Daniel Kane
The Sweetest Thing. It's the secret to making them pop.
Robin Fredriksz
Some people think my father was a spy, because of working for that government agency in Vietnam, but he can't find his car keys, much less keep a national secret.
Lauren Graham
The Copenhagen criteria are rather clear. I don't think the existence of secret prisons would be compatible with that.
Friso Roscam Abbing
I don't think it's a secret. I don't think the president is comfortable traveling.
Kurt Campbell
Crime is a fact of the human species, a fact of that species alone, but it is above all the secret aspect, impenetrable and hidden. Crime hides, and by far the most terrifying things are those which elude us.
George Bataille
Our bill assures that the patient is always in control. But it's done in secret without regulation and with desperation and in fear of reprisal.
Patty Berg
I don't know if I am a mystery. I don't have any secret weapons or anything. I just work hard every day. That is the philosophy of my life.
Fabricio Oberto
There's a lot happening in many of us. I think you have to celebrate every part. It's what you are. You have to try to find all of those secret names.
Cassandra Wilson
Kids are our customers and so we are very directly connected to them. That's the secret of our success.
Richard Robinson
The dirty little secret of public health finance is that cigarettes are a very cost-effective killer. Living longer is great for society but a disaster for government programs.
Dana Goldman
We may have been the only state where something good came out of an attempt to make secret so much of the government's business.
Claire Ebel
It was an old family recipe and wasn't much of a secret before we won. Now everybody wants it and everyone wants to know what our secret ingredient is.
Kathy Osborne
I don't really have a secret to it. I'm just really aggressive towards the board and read the ball and get in front of the girl. My height doesn't help me, but I love getting inside and being physical.
Nicole Strasko
It was our way of saying we're open for business. We wanted to signal the fact that we're moving from a more trade secret-reliant company to a more patent-reliant company.
David Kaefer
You can't have a testing program of this nature where it addresses a public health need and keep the information secret.
Caroline Smith Dewaal

Manfred Nowak
The secret of my success was clean living and a fast outfield.
Lefty Gomez

Julie Frisoni
Our secret police announced last year that 250 people wanted to come into Estonia, but they had relationships with terrorist organizations.
Maj. Kuido Pettai
We have an incredible well-known hot rod coming and we had to promise to keep it a secret. You've seen this car on television. It is the most expensive car we've ever had. We anticipate several $100,000 cars to be here.
Harry Carter
You have someone who the United States has decided is no longer an enemy combatant and is not dangerous, and we sent him back to a country that regularly puts people in secret detention and tortures them.
Barbara Olshansky
I'm satisfied there was no secret agenda or plan to oust Rhys for some other more intellectually bright pupil.
Anthony Thompson
Victoria's Secret strength has been its efforts to strive for constant newness.

It's not a secret that it poses some problems.
Richard Neufeld
The Secret Service -- ever passionate, ever diligent, not letting their man go -- created a sting operation, seized the coin, and actually put poor Mr. Fenton in jail.
David Redden
He could play at any sized school in the area - he's that skilled. He's a leader for me both on and off the court, and he's the biggest secret and best secret in Cincinnati.
Paul Andrews
It's no secret that they had some loose ends in that investigation that they wanted to move on.
Hugh Keefe
It's no secret we like to shoot. Any time we can hit some shots, it helps us get into the flow of the game.
Tom Suelzle
Keep a secret, it's your slave. Tell it, and it's your master.
William Henry Hudson
It's no secret we like to load up against the run. We leave our corners out there and ask them to do a lot. The statistics in the pass game may not be great, but the bottom line is that we've won football games playing that way.
Randall Godfrey
The secret to success is to start from scratch and keep on scratching.
Dennis Green
It would be a devastating blow to the basic traditions of our justice system, which is we do not have secret courts we do not have a tradition of people being able to make charges against other people and remain anonymous.
Bill Lueders
So what is the secret to her never?ending appeal?
Barbara Lounsberry
She wouldn't have anything to do with us. We weren't going to push it, either. I figured there were Secret Service agents hanging around who'd have been all too happy to pull a Jack Bauer on me.
Dennis Bonifer
I guess we are keeping some things secret.
Andrea Varnier
It is no secret that the MBTA is having financial difficulties, but what I do not want to do is have people that are cheating the system drive up the cost of that program to the point where I won't be able to afford it.
Daniel Grabauskas
Now that the secret ballot is off the table, abuses that come from the peer-to-peer intimidation to sign cards are in play.
Richard Berman
There's no secret where they'll be on defense. We see certain things that we feel we can do. We know what we want to run. We'll see if it comes to fruition.
Jeff Carnazzo
This is so fundamental that most people take it for granted, and it only really hits home when they find out too late that there's been a decision made that directly affects them. They get real angry when they find out the decision was made in secret. This law will clarify for members of the public and public officials what business must be conducted in the open.
Dennis Bailey
The real secret of magic lies in the performance.
David Copperfield
The secret of contentment is knowing how to enjoy what you have, and to be able to lose all desire for things beyond your reach.
Lyn Yutang
There were no secret deals.
James Reilly
[Leaders of the center also told Van Meir that they belonged to a secret] inner Marxist group ... They would say those were political allegations from their enemies.
Alfred E. Newman
It's no secret that, historically, the mining industry has been inherently more dangerous than most other occupations. I don't see where this one incident would have more of a detrimental impact (on recruitment) than any other incident in the past.
Terry Farley
The secret to true happiness is a combination of low expectations and insensitivity.
Olivia Goldsmith
Attacking is the only secret. Dare and the world always yields; or if it beats you sometimes, dare it again and it will succumb.
William Makepeace Thackeray

This type of crime doesn't happen in front of eyewitnesses. This type of crime happens in secret.
Barbara Whaley
The secret to success is to offend the greatest number of people.
George Bernard Shaw

Rich Galen
Homeless people on the streets knew when she was getting her check. It was no secret.
Joseph Abood
Out of stocks are the dirty little secret of all retailer segments and tiers. Lost sales are a far bigger problem than markdowns for overall retailer health.
Paula Rosenblum
It's no secret that oil prices have hit record levels these past months, ... In fact, they have reached levels which few . . . analysts projected just six months ago.
Loyola Sullivan
It's not anything we're trying to keep secret.
Ann Fisher
Our inventions mirror our secret wishes.
Lawrence Durrell

Scott Scudder
A secret is not something unrevealed, but something told privately, in a whisper.
Marcel Pagnol
Everyone wants to know, what's your secret? Nothing! No secrets. I'll tell you what's in my chili.
Jeff Hughes
In this age of the Internet, with vendor alliances being formed and customer purchase decisions being made, it appears Microsoft has fallen behind in establishing its position in these emerging markets. Or, if it has, it's the best kept secret in the technology industry.
Melissa Eisenstat
I wanted to bring it out into the open because it's still a dirty little secret in many households.
Chief Lester Aradi
It's no secret that these businesses face the daily challenge of competing against the growing presence of shopping malls, big box stores and franchise establishments, each with their deep pockets for marketing and advertising.
Matt Mclaughlin
We have several entertainers planned for the evening. One is a puppeteer, but his act is a secret. The others are an acoustic guitar band and a jazz band.
Don Sippel
It means that they put the president of the United States at risk, the first lady at risk, the Secret Service agents that were protecting him at risk.
Steve Kohn
Coughlin's in a tough position if he claimed (the money) was for secret union activity -- which may be illegal. That's a tough defense: 'I didn't do anything wrong because I was trying to do something nefarious on behalf of the company,' .
Peter Henning
So much for a secret ballot not controlled by the NHLPA.
Trent Klatt
I don't want to give our secret away, but, yes, he does do that. He definitely looked at his target. He stared down his first read. All we did was take it away.
Nick Harper
So I decided to make my own pizza sauce from my own homegrown produce during the following canning season, ... It took a bit of experimenting to come up with just the right amount of all the ingredients . . . but I finally hit upon a blend that the folks around here seem to relish. The secret is the herbs: Don't be afraid to put more of 'em in than you think you shouldl Tha.
Carolyn Allen
He plots, he plans, he works in secret.
Robert Chapman
There's no secret that the revolve rate of clients here is less than in other markets. But, again, that is not unusual, given the stage of development we're in, and we'd expect that to increase.
Richard Stanley
Hearings on secret CIA detentions and rendition of terrorist suspects should be held in the U.S. Congress as well.
Joanne Mariner
This secret deal didn't contain many of the provisions commonly found in other port deals. That may be typical for business as usual in Washington, but it is not in the best interest of our national security.
Francine Busby
The British Secret Service was staffed at one point almost entirely by alcoholic homosexuals working for the KGB.
Clive James
Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can.
Douglas Pagels
It's no secret Brown has been struggling the last four games. It was important that she had an understanding about why we were making the move, to take some of the pressure off of her.
Kathy Fedorjaka
Ambition is a gilded misery, a secret poison, a hidden plague, the engineer of deceit, the mother of hypocrisy, the parent of envy, the original of vices, the moth of holiness, the blinder of hearts, turning medicines into maladies, and remedies into diseases.
Thomas Brooks
It's no secret the ball is going to the tall girl. Sterling made it hard to get the passes in to her.
Sue Donaldson
For a long time this was the best-kept secret in Arizona. It sat here and did nothing except be pretty.
Jackie Collins
I find it hard to believe these actions could have taken place without a degree of collaboration or passivity by governments or services operating under them. I am thinking of the secret services.
Dick Marty
It's no secret they're going to come in and try to work those guys because they haven't been getting exactly what they wanted out of the run game those first two games. And I think they're going to try to get it established against us.
Tyoka Jackson
The Secret Service is the best in the business, but their pucker factor right now is really high. They're very worried because it is a high risk environment, and they cannot control the environment within which the President is handled.
Roger Cressey
The secret to using power is not to use it. Just having it is enough.
Jessica Alba
There are mysteries, secret zones in each individual.
Krzysztof Kieslowski
Are they going to have Victoria's Secret selling underwear?
Charles Wolf
The secret of my success is a two word answer: Know people.
Harvey S. Firestone
It's no secret that we have a lot of big girls and we look to use them. Groton did a good job on the perimeter early on, making it tough for us to get it inside to them, but once we moved the ball a little better we were able to get the ball into Jillian and Allie (Coulter) and we were able to capitalize.
Naomi Martin
This is the best-kept secret in grassroots politics. So few people know about them.
Dave Haigler
That's not going to be on the tour. It's going to stay a secret.
Becky Stiles
These [are] secret negotiations by essentially a bunch of politically ambitious attorneys general, ... They want their cases to reimburse the treasuries of Florida and other states.
Stanley Rosenblatt
I tried catering first and then I put money into the restaurant as I got it. I've cooked all my life, since I was 7. I don't know what the secret is - a gift from God.
Mary Reynolds
The opposition are bad losers...Voting is supposed to be secret. Why do they think all the missing names are their supporters?
Ofwono Opondo
Everyone wants to know the secret of exercise and diet, and the only secret there is, in my opinion, is consistency.
Hank Drought
That torture is still practiced in Iraq after Saddam Hussein, that is no secret. It is shocking, but on the other hand, we have received allegations of these secret (detention) places in Iraq already for quite a long time.
Manfred Nowak
The play of our offensive line has been the secret to our success. These guys have been through the trenches together and have matured and developed into a solid group.
Bob Holmes
The secret is getting in early. You want to get in when it's a ripple, before the wave hits. Then you ride the wave.
David Marcus
I don't think it's a secret we're not going into this tournament, despite playing at home, as the favorite.
Blair Mackasey

I'm astonished at the amount of money involved in these secret loans, and would want to know where the money has gone.
Ian Davidson
Music is a secret and unconscious mathematical problem of the soul.

Peter Kastner
French Women Don't Get Fat: The Secret To Eating for Pleasure.
Mireille Guiliano
If you think about it, it's obvious why that's so. They have at their disposal the information which really is the top-secret, most precious, national security information that we have.
Andrew Mccarthy
My conduct and this company was at all times within the law and I reject any allegations to the contrary. I have never made any secret of the fact that, at the time of my appointment, the companies were involved in a dispute with the Australian Taxation Office.
Robert Gerard
It's not a secret to us that he's doing good. I expect him to better than he's doing. Seventh seed, I expect him to do better than that.
Ty Eustice
(Child abuse) is something that's not talked about. It's the dirty little secret. There is the immediate damage, but there is also the damage that it does down the road. It's the baggage that you carry. It's not here and today, it's tomorrow.
Melody Strong
After good dialogue with members of the executive board, I decided that it was in the best interests of the membership to conduct a secret ballot vote amongst our player representatives and executive officers so that there are absolutely no questions regarding my election as executive director and general counsel.
Ted Saskin
Our defense has been consistent. It's not a secret that we lost some good players (on offense) from a year ago.
Jerry Allen
It's no secret the penalties and frustrations of our club need to be better. I'm one to blame. I'm not blaming the officiating for any game or anybody else. It's completely the team's loss because of the penalties and the lack of discipline and not getting the right bounces tonight.
Colin Chaulk
I don't know what the secret to longevity as an actress is. It's more than talent and beauty. Maybe it's the audience seeing itself in you.
Joan Blondell
Things forbidden have a secret charm.
Cornelius Tacitus
That's our family secret. We don't force the running as a strict routine. The girls enjoy being active kids but the running and sometimes resulting difficulty helps them learn the mental aspect of life ? mind over matter.
Jerry Ellis
The whole secret of life is to be interested in one thing profoundly and in a thousand things well.
Horace Walpole
There is nothing so despicable as a secret society that is based upon religious prejudice and that will attempt to defeat a man because of his religious beliefs. Such a society is like a cockroach -- it thrives in the dark. So do those who combine for such an end.
William Howard Taft
A cola company might safeguard its secret cola recipe with all its might, and it will do nothing to keep its own employees' identities safe.
Daniel Solove
I think the one major problem with the 'Victoria's Secret Fashion Show' is that the novelty has worn off. It's not that dramatic anymore.
John Higgins
The secret to our success is that the product we developed is flexible and simple enough at an affordable price to handle a range of customers, from large to small, and we can use it to administer really complex investment products handling the intricacies and complexities of the product, or simpler, less complicated insurance products.
Don Elliott
The music he made in the '80s was being passed around the world like a secret handshake.
Jeff Feuerzeig
It's very intimate. They're playing to each other and letting the audience in on the secret.
Ryan Raichilson
Nothing is secret once you tell anyone. If you want to keep it quiet - don't tell a soul.
Richard Chamberlain
The secret of success is this: there is no secret of success.
Elbert Hubbard
I think the secret of her success is that she cuts furs exactly as if she's cutting (the) fabric of her ready-to-wear collection. So she achieves that long, narrow line without sacrificing anything.
Stanley Schulman
Anything in a paragraph marked 'secret' needs to be deemed secret, and revealing it to someone without proper security clearance or without a need to know is not authorized and is a violation.
Richard Falkenrath
Heck, no, I can't tell the secret ingredient. Because it's a secret, I can never tell.
Brad Cosenza
You'd never have known it was going on unless someone told you, but if you went into the lounge and asked the bartender where the action was, he'd tell you ... it wasn't a secret.
Jerry Ford
We used to hold those secret meetings at her house.
Charles Phillips
But they were gathering dust in some courthouse basement. These things were technically accessible, but unless you had a lot of time or could afford to hire a private detective to go look this stuff up, they were effectively secret from you.
Eugene Volokh
We learn the inner secret of happiness when we learn to direct our inner drives, our interest and our attention to something besides ourselves.
Ethel Percy Andrus
Bank gift cards sell the convenience of being able to use them at many sellers. Many consumers are willing to put up with their fees to gain that convenience. The problem of using them for purchases greater than the card's balance is their dark secret. It means they can often be very inconvenient. And without convenience, they have very little going for them.
Evan Johnson
The real secret to having a successful trial is doing them real quick -- within the first six months.
Eric Erickson
There's no bones about it. We don't keep it a secret. We want to be at the West Regional here this year. To not be there, it would be an absolute failure for our hockey team.
Erik Fabian
[The Secret Service is] engaged in enforcement and public education -- educating banks, retailers, money handlers and the general public. It's vital that we keep the banking industry up to speed on identifying and authenticating bills.
Eric Zahren
The Secret Service has worked in conjunction with not only government agencies but with industry partners in coming up with preventive measures for this type of equipment to make it more difficult to use illegally to produce counterfeit currency.
Eric Zahren
It's the secret for beautiful guacamole or fruit salad. Also potatoes, cauliflower and turnips stay white when you add lemon juice to the cooking water.
Emily Hines
We've called the Secret Service and forwarded the email to them and I've spoken with an agent in the local office about this.
Eleanor Foster
In my secret life, I wish I didn't have to be a university professor. I wish I could sing full time.
