Famous Quotes & Sayings

Agnes Martin

Happiness is being on the beam with life - to feel the pull of life

Becky Cleary

We're looking solid in everything else, but in gymnastics the beam is the make or break event. South Burlington stayed on beam more than us and deserved the overall win. But we showed that when we stay on the beam we will be tough to beat.

Paul Barrett

Since both the external beam and the seed radiation yield similar results -- and occasionally they are used together -- for most men the choice boils down to convenience: Do you want an invasive treatment that is done in about an hour, or a noninvasive treatment that takes seven weeks.

J. M. Roberts

She could do things on beam that I had no name for. As a third-year coach, I had visions of grandeur, thoughts of state championships dancing before me. I couldn't wait to work with someone at that level.

Scott Bauman

Leah's one of the most consistent beam workers we've ever had. That will make her mad enough to come out and really want to hit it next week.

Carey Fagan

I felt like we had a slow start on our first two events tonight. The scores were tight and vault was still our weak event. I was happy with how we performed on floor and beam. We scored a season high on beam and it was nice to finish the meet strong. If we would have had more momentum earlier I feel we would have had a better chance to beat Minnesota.

Michael Servetus

I do not separate Christ from God more than a voice from the speaker or a beam from the sun. Christ is the voice of the speaker. He and the Father are the same thing, as the beam and the light, are the same light.

Bill Clinton

I am going to focus like a laser beam on this economy.

Jack McDevitt

One SF prediction that I would like very much to see: Get solar collectors launched to beam energy back home, and get away from fossil fuels.

Michael Zolensky

We thought maybe the collectors wouldn't open properly, or maybe they would be covered with gunk from the spacecraft.

Jim Holt

Those are the same sandbags our garbage collectors will probably be picking up this week.

Paul Mellon

In a way, my father was lucky. He had a hunch that his vision of the National Gallery would interest other collectors and persuade them to come in with him, and that hunch proved to be right.

Sarah Brady

Our ultimate goal- total control of handguns in the United States- is going to take time... The first problem is to slow down the increasing number of handguns being produced... The second problem is to get handguns registered. And the final problem is to make the possession of handguns and all handgun ammunition- except for the military, policemen, licensed security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and licensed gun collectors - totally illegal.

Clive Cussler

Ever since Pitt was wearing one, collectors were dumbfounded; they were saying that it wasn't an expensive watch, what's all the fuss about. I understand the prices have been driven up since then; people are even paying $1000 for them. I've met people that tell me that they spent two years looking for one.

Hanno Langenhoven

Theologians are collectors and tellers of tales; the better the theologian, the better the stories

Christopher Burge

The results reflect a strong, solid and successful market - there were some very high prices but participating collectors remain focused and controlled.

Richard Pearson

Collectors purchase these and they are used for target practice.

Josh Fox

Natural gas is a dirty fossil fuel like the rest of them.

Robert T. Bakker

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

We must get rid of fossil fuels by developing injection systems for automobiles, which can run on bio-fuel.

Charles Darwin

Not one change of species into another is on record ... we cannot prove that a single species has been changed.

Linda Watson

I see this as very important because of America's heavy reliance on fossil fuels.

Pierre Loti

Through the study of fossils I had already been initiated into the mysteries of prehistoric creations.

Dan Gebo

They don't all look alike. There are some very different shapes, with implications of how these fossils walked.

Charles Bennett

This light is just invaluable. It's really the only fossil we have from that time.

Mark Norell

These fossils are things we predicted would be there but seriously in my lifetime I never thought we were going to find them.

Carol Vorderman

All I wanted to do was put together one of the best home maths systems in the world, and that's what we've done. I've loved numbers since I was two or three, and I get really excited about them. Now, I'm allowing myself to get excited about things. If you're doing it for a TV network or any major corporation, you have to put a lid on it a little.

Carlos Mencia

And for all of you at home, you are all welcome to visit my store. You are also welcome to park off you motherparking parks, and go park yourself. But remember, don't park in a handicapped spot.

Alan Titchmarsh

I love Chatsworth, Winchester Cathedral, Edinburgh Castle... Every time I'm in the vicinity of something old and worth looking at, I try to go. You don't even have to leave your home town to see some places. How many Londoners have seen the crown jewels? Not many, and they'll blow you away, I promise.

Alan Shearer

When I go home every night, I can look in the mirror and say I have given 110 per cent for Newcastle United. If people aren't happy with that, I can't give any more.

Alan K. Simpson

A society like ours, which professes no one religion and has allowed all religions to decay, which indulges freedom to the point of license and individualism to the point of anarchy, needs all the support that responsible, cultivated homes can furnish. I hope your generation will provide a firmer shelter for civilized standards.

Andrew Flintoff
