Quotes:

Child welfare ought really to cover all sorts of topics, such as better water and sanitation and good roads, and clean streets and public parks and playgrounds.
View quotes by Marjory Douglas

There are good reasons for doing this now, because of the change to technology, the fact that we will have to pay for biometric passports and the ID card part of it is a very small additional cost [on introducing ID cards]
View quotes by Tony Blair

I don't think it is really understood how good a player he actually is. He is one of those players who, as the conditions and situations got harder and more difficult, the better he became and I know I will miss his influence on the Australian team. [On Damien Martyn]
View quotes by Ricky Ponting

You will find that the truth is often unpopular and the contest between agreeable fancy and disagreeable fact is unequal. For, in the vernacular, we Americans are suckers for good news.
View quotes by Adlai Stevenson

Mankind are an incorrigible race. Give them but bugbears and idols - it is all that they ask; the distinctions of right and wrong, of truth and falsehood, of good and evil, are worse than indifferent to them.
View quotes by William Hazlitt

I was a good amateur but only an average professional. I soon realized that there was a limit to how far I could rise in the music business, so I left the band and enrolled at New York University.
View quotes by Alan Greenspan

You sit at the board and suddenly your heart leaps. Your hand trembles to pick up the piece and move it. But what chess teaches you is that you must sit there calmly and think about whether it's really a good idea and whether there are other, better ideas.

View quotes by Stanley Kubrick

It is good to realize that if love and peace can prevail on earth, and if we can teach our children to honour nature's gifts, the joys and beauties of the outdoors will be here forever.
View quotes by Jimmy Carter

Some people are born with a vital and responsive energy. It not only enables them to keep abreast of the times - it qualifies them to furnish in their own personality a good bit of the motive power to the mad pace.
View quotes by Kate Chopin

It was only cool to have blond hair and be a surfer chick (in Sydney). I could learn how to surf, but I still looked Italian. It took me a long time to realize that was a good thing.
View quotes by Natalie Imbruglia

I draw on my memories but blended with a lot of fantasy...but let's set the record straight on something! The Summer of '69 has nothing to do with the actual year 1969. It's about making love (69 - get it?) and looking back at the good old times.
View quotes by Bryan Adams

A maxim is the exact and noble expression of an important and indisputable truth. Sound maxims are the germs of good; strongly imprinted in the memory, they nourish the will.
View quotes by Joseph Joubert

This is unbelievable. I didn't quite get this working in a pharmacy four years ago! We weren't sure how many people would turn up but the support has been fantastic all summer. It was a good night. [winning the Ashes]
View quotes by Geraint Jones

In Hollywood if you're good looking, tall, have OK teeth and nice skin, the odds of being successful are great. If you're short and fat, it's a different story. But as long as you look like a leading man type, half your job is done already.
View quotes by John Corbett

It is not in fighting that my God delights but in causing the trees to grow, and in adorning the plains with grass and flowers. He loves not the proud warrior nor the hunter, but the lowly and the good
View quotes by Standish O'Grady

Experience tells us that few matches are won on the back of one or two good sessions of play. To win a Test match most teams have to win and outplay the opposition for extended periods of time.
View quotes by Justin Langer

Good friend for Jesus' sake forbear
To dig the dust enclosed here:
Blest be the man that spares these stones,
And curst be he that moves my bones.
Epitaph on his tomb, probably self composed
View quotes by William Shakespeare

It is a delicious moment, certainly, that of being well nestled in bed, and feeling that you shall drop gently to sleep. The good is to come, not past; the limbs have just been tired enough to render the remaining in one posture delightful; the labour of the day is gone
View quotes by Leigh Hunt

My chances of playing have increased by the injuries and the fact they aren't taking another bowler, but I don't want to get too big for my boots - if I get picked it's going to be a massive bonus but if I'm just part of the squad then that will be equally good
View quotes by Liam Plunkett

It's history in the making and to be a part of it is probably the best day of my cricketing career. The club has put in a lot of hard work and we've a perfect blend of youngsters and good experienced players. [on Durham winning...something]
