It seems that elections today are more popularity than they are substantial issues.
I don't think we'd be the business that we are today if we were spread out in the suburban areas.
If we did not have such a thing as an airplane today, we would probably create something the size of N.A.S.A. to make one.
Banging on the piano while my grandmother was watching me. I'd run up to her and ask: 'How was that, Grandma?' And she'd say, 'That was beautiful, baby!' And I'd run back to the piano and play some more. I'm sure that's why I still play today, because I was encouraged from such a young age, 2 or 3.
I was called a 'CD' by a suicidal teenager, who is alive today because I became her 'Chosen Dad,' who loved her. We all have the potential to re-parent ourselves and others.
In today's world, it never looks good when you're suing somebody who earned $20,000 for writing a book over a period of a year or two.
You compose because you want to somehow summarize in some permanent form your most basic feelings about being alive, to set down... some sort of permanent statement about the way it feels to live now, today.
Living is strife and torment, disappointment and love and sacrifice, golden sunsets and black storms. I said that some time ago, and today I do not think I would add one word.
The best preparation for tomorrow is to do today's work superbly well.
I guess you can be a supermodel today just by building followers. You don't necessarily have to do the work of going to Milan and then to Paris or New York, trying to find the right photographer, artist, or designer to see you.
Even today, I frequently meet scientists who, outside their own narrow discipline, are superstitious.
We want to bear witness today that we know the relation between corporate greed and what goes on too often in the Supreme Court decisions.
What I went through in 1976, it's the same today: It's about all the pressure that you feel, the anxiety, the family, and everything that surrounds the Games, and then getting there knowing this is your big chance, and you're able to come through. It's such a satisfying thing.
USA Today has come out with a new survey - apparently, three out of every four people make up 75% of the population.
Sustainable development is a fundamental break that's going to reshuffle the entire deck. There are companies today that are going to dominate in the future simply because they understand that.
One sweetly solemn thought, comes to me o'er and o'er; I am nearer home today, than I ever have been before.
I'm a mother, and that's really important. Today, the mother and the musician can sit next to each other. Even when the musician is out there in full swing, the mother doesn't get switched off.
I'm excited about going back to 'Today,' but, at odd moments, I'll grit my teeth in anxiety. I feel like a student before the start of school. I've got my new shoes and my book bag, but I'm not sure I'll remember how to do trigonometry. During my maternity leave, I haven't used many words of more than one syllable.
Still today, I cannot cross the threshold of a teaching institution without physical symptoms, in my chest and my stomach, of discomfort or anxiety. And yet I have never left school.
One of my great laments is that education today seems to have... be less about passion and more about process, more about tactic or technique.
