Stephen Wermiel

A positive sense of the world.

Beverly Hilton

The sense of guilt implies in some vague outline the ideas of a broken moral order and an offended God.

He's the most real, down-to-earth guy I've worked with. George is as comfortable talking to a film crew as he is talking with a director or star. He's got an old-fashioned sense of modesty and style. He's our modern-day Gary Cooper or Cary Grant.

Brian Grazer

It may be that without a vision men shall die. It is no less true that, without hard practical sense, they shall also die. Without Jefferson the new nation might have lost its soul. Without Hamilton it would assuredly have been killed in body.

Solomon Wilcots

We sense that the sell-off is behind us and the market has the preconditions in place for a pretty good year-end rally, ... It's not going to be fabulous because we've already done an awful lot since Sept. 11.

Al Goldman

From a global perspective, we think the fixed-portable approach makes a lot of sense.

Anthony King

I have never seen a role like this of an Arab-American that's seen in such a positive light -- a really well-rounded character with a sense of humor, a professional life, a family life. Not a goodie-goodie -- a person who has his flaws and his shortcomings -- but a real character, not a stereotype.

Tony Shalhoub

I have my own little sense of style. As far as image goes today for a new artist, you'll find that fashion is really important. I wouldn't want to show up for a performance in something that is absolutely the opposite of who I am as an artist.

Miranda Lambert

[Muhammad's] greatest contribution to African Americans was in restoring their sense of pride and offering them an alternative to Christianity, for which slavery left a bitter aftertaste, ...

Karl Evanzz

Horace Walpole

There is certainly a sense of urgency to fix everything now, but the planning has not been thorough for some of these schools.

It makes no sense unless you provided additional capacity or alternative speed lanes. There's absolutely no way people in this state will pay tolls without getting more in return.

When the mind and body are in harmony, the mind works better. It gives everyone a sense of physical prowess.

Caroline Prohosky

A very slight change in our habits is sufficient to destroy our sense of our daily reality, and the reality of the world about us; the moment we pass out of our habits we lose all sense of permanency and routine.

George Moore

To me, first of all, it's unique. It's totally unique to any area to have a live sign, and it is part of our history. History helps communities have a sense of togetherness, it's the glue.

Michele Clark

We just kept our composure. It was a sense of urgency.

Torin Francis

It is important for me to be with families who have experienced the same loss that I have. They understand how I feel. My sadness, my sense of desperation, and how I continue to search.

Myrna Loy

Having had to encounter single-handed during his period of eclipse many physical dangers, he was well aware of the most dangerous element common to them all: of the crushing, paralysing sense of human littleness, which is what really defeats a human struggling with natural forces, alone, far from the eyes of his fellows.

Joseph Conrad

I have no problems playing (Men at Work) songs, ... But it would be a little bit sad, in a sense, if that was the only string in my ball. I play them because they're hit songs. I play them because I like the songs. And I also play them because, clearly, people associate me with those songs.

Colin Hay

There will be a sense of relief that the medicine has worked.

Claudio Piron

I told my crew, 'I'm not letting that good man [Barker] go by himself.' And that's the way it came down. There was a tremendous sense of duty.

Japan is unique in the sense that there is a very large number of semiconductor companies that supply a significant amount of their product internally.

Marty Favret

Andrew Carroll

Science is nothing but developed perception, interpreted intent, common sense rounded out and minutely articulated.

George Santayana

Our engineers are out here drilling to determine the depth of the fissures, how far down the holes are in the road. Tomorrow we should have a better sense of whether it's going to be a week to fix.

Lauren Wonder

I just thought it made sense. After six years, you spend time with those doctors and build relationships.

Alberta Mccarthy

This is a longtime Scottsdale tradition. We're trying to keep the sense of our Western history alive.

Mayor Mary Manross

All my growth and development led me to believe that if you really do the right thing, and if you play by the rules, and if you've got good enough, solid judgment and common sense, that you're going to be able to do whatever you want to do with your life.

Barbara Jordan

The Glenn Close model makes the most sense — a hard-assed, hard-nosed leader for a male-oriented group. It used to be that if a woman played a tough leader role, it was seen that she was not a woman, but asexual or gay.

William Luhr

We need to pursue our international efforts in a spirit of cooperation - not coercion - with a true sense of partnership.

Harlan Watson

I think the Latino community in San Diego County has been segregated out of the political culture. Even when you have one or two elected officials here, it hasn't made a dent in the overall sense. It is not part of the political culture of this city.

Jorge Mariscal

We're getting reasonably close to where a bottom might occur. It's almost possible to sense a rally might occur this week.

Arthur Cashin

The book is really important in the sense that this is gonna be it.

David Hume Kennerly

I think anybody who's offended by the name needs to have their head examined. Grow a sense of humor. Get over it. Something.

David Mason

He has great hands and I think his defense helps him in the sense that they force a lot of bad shots and he's there to gobble them all up. Teams aren't shooting a high percentage so there's a lot more rebounds to be had and he's doing a great job of grabbing them.

Gary Close

There's a sense of entitlement across all generations.

Daryl Evans

Parents, however old they and we may grow to be, serve among other things to shield us from a sense of our doom. As long as they are around, we can avoid the fact of our mortality; we can still be innocent children.

Jane Howard

We met at the right time - we needed each other in a sense.

Sunny Murray

I think we're losing our sense of humor instead of being able to relax and laugh at ourselves. I don't care whether it's ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, or whose ox is being gored.

Betty White

I really did want to give women this sense of freedom.

Phoebe Philo

We've seen a tremendous response to Desperate Housewives products made available to date, so expanding the franchise into the world of fragrance makes perfect sense.

Bruce Gersh

We were not ready to play as physical of a game as we expected to. We need to have a sense of urgency in the beginning.

Carol Owens

There's a sense we've lost control of the borders. States are caught in the crossfire between Congress and the public, showing ways they can respond to the problem.

Ann Morse

Here, I found people are highly committed to their work. It?s a positive environment. ... It?s a real sense of community, and I can say that for the staff and students.

Dennis Ela

It is a different world in that the sense of urgency and sense of need is so much heightened.

Fredrick Thomas

If you can do it, you move the car off the road and we fight about whose fault it was later, ... It seems like common sense, but it was not the law, before. It's a major shift in philosophy that recognizes that traffic congestion is a huge issue here.

Kate Harper

There is no doubt that the patients feel an enormous sense of disappointment with the decision.

Adrian Brown

I believe some of the trinkets and some of the things offered are either embarrassing or they're silly or they really miss the point, ... And the marketplace has to sort that out. I would hope there are enough common-sense donors out there that won't buy that kind of material or encourage it, but to the extent they do, it's the American way.

Paul Nelson

Is boredom anything less than the sense of one's faculties slowly dying?

Sir Arthur Helps

Ambition is a poor excuse for not having sense enough to be lazy.

Edgar Bergen

It makes sense because both Merck and Schering are too small to compete. Sentiment is good for mergers and acquisitions at the moment.

Alexander Groschke

We want to give them some sense of normalcy, give them anything that doesn't look like a pile of debris on the side of the road.

Jeanne Brooks

I've got a twisted sense of humor, and everything amuses me.

Robert A. Heinlein

It helps prove the point the centralized interim storage makes more sense. Once you start moving it, it blows the whole 'mobile Chernobyl' argument out of the water.

Kevin Cook

This is an ad-hoc series of executive orders that make no sense. To be able to pick people up all over the world and put them in some no-law zone without judicial review at the executive's orders, that is not something our laws have ever allowed.

Gitanjali Gutierrez

There's a sense they've done OK with several shows, and stopped the hemorrhaging.

Tom Wolzien

In a sense I've made the same film over and over again. In all of them I've asked, 'Who are we as Americans?

Ken Burns

We didn't have any quantitative analysis on the broad effect of digital on watches. It was more anecdotal and 'gut' sense that cell phone and other technology would begin to eat into watch sales.

Don Montuori

If you think about it, it makes sense. A lot of people who live in our community are no longer part of the work force, and many have been longtime donors.

Cliff Smith

We got a sense of renewal. Our kids go out there, all 15 guys, and nobody wanted to be the one to let the other ones down. They really have a 'One Team' concept, put their ego to the side.

Mark Mugiishi

The kind of matters we discussed are not earth-shattering matters in the political sense, but they are extremely important for the people concerned and we tried to approach this really from a practical point.

Albert Rohan

I know all their plays, all their tendencies. I mean, in a sense it was like practice. Obviously we wanted to win this. It's huge for the playoffs.

Katie Smith

That would make for a much quicker response to a flu outbreak, and would help move vaccine technology into the 21st century. Right now vaccine technology is in the middle of the 20th century. It just doesn't make sense to rely on outdated methods that have been around 40 years.

John Mccamant

[i]t is a defense to any offense that the accused was acting pursuant to orders unless the accused knew the orders to be unlawful or a person of ordinary sense and understanding would have known the orders to be unlawful.

Marcus Valerius Martialis

It was Anne's good sense, calmness and motherliness that enabled her to talk this guy down and then to surrender.

Cliff Herberg

I'm not sure. I don't get the sense that consumers have fixed the blame yet ...I think we may be one event away or some catalyst away from that blame being pointed at Washington or the administration. I'm not sure it's there yet.

Mark Warner

It was our thinking all along that Motorola would not put all of its eggs in one basket. It makes sense to support as many platforms as they can.

Chris Ambrosio

It gives the idea that there's hope and life after death, and the sense that we can overcome all our fears, our doubts and our obstacles and live the best life that we possibly can.

Will Simons

He has a true sense of history and pride in the state.

John Wiater

After the gentle and safe coaching of Mind & Body Fitness instructors and the support of The Gathering Place, I regained my strength and a sense of confidence in my body.

Sue Curtis

A national food supply requires a national approach to food safety. This is what this common-sense legislation would require.

Melissa Carlson

It's kind of hard to get a good feel for whether the glass is half empty or half full right now. Until some other trend shows itself - shows a confirmation one way or the other in terms of how to look at these numbers - it's difficult to get a good read on whether we should be reading this in a negative sense or a positive sense.

Bret Mayborne

It's all anyone is talking about, ... There's a great sense of loss and uncertainty that comes as a result of something like this.

Ole Miss

All have become regional leaders. It's a great tie-in. It's been proven time and again that NASCAR fans are extremely loyal to the sponsors of their sport. So this makes sense from every angle.

Rick Hendrick

It didn't make sense to me, but the combine is set up for people not to do well, ... They make you get up five in the morning to do this, right after you do this, and this. It's not something that a lot of people end up doing well at, but if you do well at it, it's very good for you, but I was able to focus on my pro day.

Taylor Stubblefield

I don't know if it's when they're young they don't know any better, and you hope they don't ever know any better. She is really mature in a basketball sense. She knows she needs to take it to the hole.

Tina Gaughan

There is a certain sense out there that the city should no be involved in this.

Nick Licata

Most of the time, '24' is not about Jack Bauer commanding a squad in order to complete the mission; it's about Jack Bauer in solo action, ... So including multiplayer didn't make a lot of sense to us.

Tim Hall

It is very ambitious. NTL already has a lot on its plate. But from Richard Branson's point of view, it makes a lot of sense. It's extending the Virgin brand rather nicely.

Julian Hewett

I think it was just a general reluctance to change. But the coaches were able to communicate with their athletic directors why this rule made sense. Then it gained more and more support.

Jim Haney

PEOPLE are experience rich and theory poor. People who are busy doing things ? as opposed to people who are busy sitting around, like me, reading and having coffee in coffee shops ? don't have opportunities to kind of collect and organize their experiences and make sense of them.

Malcolm Gladwell

I could sense all week that they were ready. They were like a Kentucky thoroughbred. They knew what was there.

Dave Hoover

There really is a will to do more - both from an industry perspective and the legislature. My assumption is that we're going to be talking a lot over the next several months about what makes sense, and hopefully come to an agreement so that we can make it work.

Carol Stewart

If writers were good businessmen, they'd have too much sense to be writers.

Irvin S. Cobb

It's a very exiting study in the sense that it's probably the first time we've seen brain imaging evidence of this type from a normal population.

Maria Carrillo

It's comforting to see that state governments are showing some common sense and fiscal restraint. The reduced borrowing runs counter to what the federal government is doing.

Dominic Calabro

I've been there and have a good sense of what I'm talking about. I want [the fencers] to take advantage of what I have to offer.

Nikki Franke

It certainly was tough playing two games in one day because it's not something you can prepare for. It was nice to see the girls respond like they did. When we lost Marianne there were some tears, but then there was a sense that we would toughen up. That's exactly what they did.

John Triplett

Sometimes, they just get afraid to leave, and they will do things that don't always make sense, like run, even though they were going to be out within a short period of time.

Don Abel

The conscious mind is driving all day, running through a whole bunch of errands. It needs to be rested and renewed at night. Even if you are not sleeping, you can let go of the conscious mind. You want to do things that give you that sense of letting go.

Sondra Kornblatt

Not all lucid dreams are useful but they all have a sense of wonder about them. If you must sleep through a third of your life, why should you sleep through your dreams, too?

Stephen Laberge

There is no sense whatsoever to remain here. The settlements must be evacuated.

Shimon Peres

We are about to move into a new phase when Russian state-controlled energy companies are opened for investment with cooperative foreign firms. It makes sense to have someone with international experience ? either corporate or political ? leading that process at the head of those companies.

Chris Weafer

We are looking at the definition of 'promoting literacy' in a broad sense.

Hut Landon

What I've told the guys is that there's some uncertainty here -- about the program, about the coach, about a lot of things. They don't know how everything is going to turn out, so it only makes sense for them to explore their options a little bit.

Chris Kennedy

It's an incredibly abundant site. This is an industrial site that at one time had been a very loud, very dirty place. But now, it has almost a ghostly sense about it.

Mary Humstone

The difference between this award and any other is that it's a reader's choice. People holler about other awards because they are committee-selected. This is not committee-selected. There are purists in literary circles who have a different sense of what is going on here, but we think anything you can do to get people reading is a good thing.

Gerry Byrne

I keep teasing him that someday I?m going to see him on Food Network. He?s very focused, very talented and has a real good sense of taste.

Diane Pinkham

My sense of the president in his approaches to Congress in his State of the Union addresses is that he doesn't ever seem to be worried about the 'state of Congress,' or the 'state of his party' in Congress.

Sarah Binder

To design something like this is unbelievable - you've got to love it. It's our history, it's our past. I'm glad someone had the sense to preserve this.

Dick Anderson

There's some sense that at least with blood pressure, it's fairly easily measured, and if there is an increase, then the physician can take the patient off the drug fairly quickly.

Jim Hill

Presumption means nothing more than as stated by Lord Mansfield, the weighing of probabilities, and deciding, by the powers of common sense, on which side the truth is.

Sir William Draper

I love the fact that someone who is internationally recognized for architecture is involved in this. You can be pretty well certain that the historical sense of place is going to be honored.

Mark Wyman

This ensures he'll be entertained and gives him a sense of security and choice. Include puzzle books, hand-held games, and an audio-cassette or CD player (with individual headphones) for listening to music or books on tape.

Kristin Stanberry
