Richard Quotations | Page 4

They were just about to be voted out of office, or in the case of Richard Nixon, he was about to resign. Bush still has more than two years to go, so I think we're in somewhat uncharted territory.

They're the Liz Taylor and Richard Burton of our era.

A lot of Richard Nixon's very dangerous and un-democratic tendencies were reinforced by the sounding board of his top aides, including people who went to jail, like his attorney general, John Mitchell, his top domestic aides, Erlichman and Haldeman.

A lot of the teams have run this one-piece body. I don't know what all the benefits are, but certainly with the situation we had in Las Vegas, where we lost several body panels off the right side of the car, it should keep that type of thing from happening. I also think there are other benefits. It's something that Richard had considered doing previously and I think this is just the right time.

They are going to be tough to beat. They have a good guard in Richard Roby, and they have a lot of guys who can spread the floor and shoot the three.

This Morning specialises in magical TV doubles. We made Richard and Judy, Fern and Phillip and now it's Kate and Tim.

This Morning specialises in creating magical TV doubles. We made Richard and Judy, Fern and Phillip and now we're heading for a third with Kate and Tim.

There's a basic law, Klein's second, or third, or fourth law of politics in the TV age, which is warm always beats cold, with the exception of Richard Nixon. The nicer guy usually wins.

This is the most important advance in public health since Sir Richard Doll identified that smoking causes lung cancer 50 years ago. Today's vote will protect thousands of workers and save many lives.

This is the way the government apologizes. I view this letter as the government's apology to Richard Jewell.

Atheism is a moral position - a rather rigid one, if you've ever read the opinions of its highest-profile espousers, Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins.

At Flores in the Azores Sir Richard Grenville lay.

It seems what McCain is doing is the classic move that Richard Nixon patented - run right during the primaries, then run center for the general. He's doing what he has to do. To a purist it doesn't smell right, but find me someone who hasn't done that who won.

It was a very embarrassing match for both of us after what we achieved in Germany. It was no fun to take on Richard today.

It's more important for (Congressman) Jim Gibbons not to be governor than for Richard Perkins to be governor,

It's two people dead and, fortunately, we had a very heroic police officer, Richard Burt, who probably saved an awful lot of lives,

It is time for Richard to leave the football club. He is not a qualified coach and I don't know what avenues he wants to pursue. But he has done OK out of his testimonial and, from our point of view, we wish him well as he leaves.

It's going to be tough. They're one of the hottest teams in the league right now. Vince (Carter) is playing tremendous, and so is Richard Jefferson, so we got to play great team defense, great man-on-man defense.

It's funny how many people have told me the race is over. It's a year out. It's way out. Santorum is one of those guys like Bill Clinton, like Richard Nixon, who will do anything to win.

It's good to see Richard walking with that step he had when I saw him in the garage area. I kind of bowed to Robbie and said, 'You're the man when I looked up on the board.' It's good for the sport. It's real good.

Then is when I decided to take it to Archie to see if they could do it as a comic book. I showed it to Richard Goldwater, and he showed it to his father, and a day or two later I got the OK to do it as a comic book.

Everyone is tired of that Richard Gere story

Everybody reacted properly, including Michael Buffer. He was very good at trying to calm the crowd. I thought between Richard and my inspectors and the police, everybody did what they did to stop it immediately before anyone got hurt. If there hadn't been a proper reaction it could have turned into a horrible, horrible thing.

Not since Richard Nixon stiffed the Congress during Watergate has a White House so openly and arrogantly defied Congress' investigative authority. Nor has any activity by the Bush administration more strongly suggested they are hiding incriminating information about their relationship with the now-moribund Enron, or other heavy-hitting campaign contributors from the energy business.

The best comedy to me - and again, I grew up with comedy since I was a baby, so I've seen it all - is when you exaggerate the truth, like Richard Pryor did, you understand?

That guy was an institution. When you think of track and field and how to do things right, you think of Richard Chamberlin. It's put a damper on this season. It's puts things in perspective.

Sunil was the first Test batsman to score 10,000 runs, David was England's leading run scorer in his day and Sir Richard and Courtney have both held the world record for Test wickets so there should be enough experience amongst our ranks to enable us to undertake the task,

It's clear that Richard John Sumner was a very troubled man and he was getting worse and he was very depressed.

It's worth being clear - you know, I think that the ideas that somebody like Richard Spencer endorses and that other members of the self-identified white nationalist groups endorse - those ideas really are repellent to most people.

I want to know everything there is to know about Lewis and Clark. And I want to do the Sunday crossword in less than an hour. I want to be the best dad in the world. I want to play Richard II, and I want to win another Tony award.

They were always positive -- they knew I could do it, ... I would just play a terrible match and my father Richard would say the most positive things. It really helped me through a difficult time.

They wouldn't shut up about it. 'He's totally an alcoholic and here's why.' I hate them sometimes. Especially when they are right. Because Richard is totally an alcoholic and now I see why.

It was great pleasure working Richard and Britt Ekland, who like my wife, is Swedish. I have very good taste.

Not only did Ronald Reagan do this in '76, ... Richard Nixon followed this exact same playbook in the '60s -- helped him get the nomination in '68.

The last few days it?s been Richard Seymour. That was a little different for me the first few times. I don?t think anyone handles Richard easily, but we?re getting there.

The issues that we've all gone through about Pat Boone covering songs have been resolved. It's about time we let them go. Those were important and valid issues in the '50s but now we know Little Richard and we know his music. He's had a great career and is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I'm actually following the advice that Tom Dewey (who lost the 1948 presidential election to Harry Truman) gave Richard Nixon in 1960 (the year Nixon lost the presidential election to John Kennedy). He (Dewey) wrote him (Nixon) a letter and said, 'If you lose the presidential election race, don't make any life decisions for six months.'

I love 'The Sportswriter' by Richard Ford. Ford really captures for me the bittersweetness of the quietly suffering American man. It's stoic, sad, and really beautiful.

I'm sure Richard Kirkland did his best as warden at Pelican Bay State Prison for the short term he was there. We wish him the best.

In Chicago, we may not think the Picasso presiding over the Richard J. Daley Center plaza is art, but we know it's a big Picasso and it's the city's Picasso, and when the Cubs made the play-offs, the sculpture wore a baseball cap just like everything else.

I know that on LAPD they have used psychics. They used it on the Hillside strangler case. I'm not sure on the Richard Ramirez case. I can't say one thing or another about it. I've read about it. I really don't have a lot to say about if it works or if it doesn't.

I'm quite looking forward to the fact that people know me as Richard rather than Craig.

I'm old enough to remember Richard Nixon. They called it the imperial presidency when he was refusing to spend money that Congress had appropriated.

I'm totally shocked and humbled they would give me such an honor. When (Wofford athletic director) Richard Johnson contacted me I was speechless.

I owe a great deal to Harold Hobson, doyen drama critic of the 'U.K. Sunday Times,' who championed me as Shakespeare's Richard II at the 1969 Edinburgh Festival.

If you had to put all your money on one living poet whose work will be read in a hundred years, Richard Wilbur would be a good bet.

In reality, Richard has stepped up and become really the focal point of our team. Without him there, we were kind of lackluster. We didn't do a very good job of preparing for having a freshman and sophomore at quarterback.

I know it's cold hearted, but once you've got (medical) proof of what's happened, you move on and Richard will move on.

I hope Howard Dean is like George McGovern. I thought I was a pretty good candidate in 1972. It's true that I lost to Richard Nixon in the general election by a big margin. But that wasn't my mistake. That was the mistake of the voters

I have the greatest respect for the guys that drive Cup cars week in and week out. It takes a lot of preparation to be ready for a highly competitive event like the Nextel Cup Series and we just didn't have the time to do the job right. I want to thank Richard for giving me this opportunity and the crew guys at the test for all of their effort.

I have seen countless colleagues struggle to come to terms with retirement. I learned a lot from Richard Dunwoody when he was riding, and I completely understand why he took off and undertook what most people consider mad challenges.

I really think that'll happen. I've informally talked to Richard (Childress), just so he knew I wanted to do that. I'll drive the No. 3 car toward the end of my career if I've done what I wanted to do at DEI, and that's win championships and win races. And I'll stick around as long as it takes to do it.

I really like Larry Clark's films, as weird as that is. I like Richard Kern films.

In the automotive world the potential for intelligent transport systems is almost unlimited and eventually technology will help alleviate the major problems of congestion and safety. Technology is also playing an increasingly important role in motor sport. The only way that the FIA can stay at the forefront of these issues is to have access to cutting-edge technology and leading expertise in the electronics and information technology fields, ... AMD is clearly at the leading-edge of technology and very well positioned to provide the type of support we need. We look forward to working directly with AMD's Henri Richard as he takes on the new role of FIA Technology Special Advisor.

In my view, this was a singular event in the history of nanotechnology. It not only created a whole new field of 'fullerene chemistry,' it immediately made feasible the notion of making things from the bottom up, just as physicist Richard Feynman had predicted 50 years earlier.

In my view, this was a singular event in the history of nanotechnology, ... It not only created a whole new field of 'fullerene chemistry,' it immediately made feasible the notion of making things from the bottom up, just as physicist Richard Feynman had predicted 50 years earlier.

I never thought I had to live up to Richard Petty, ... I never had to live up to anything but what I expected.

I have felt some twinges recently, about parts I wanted to play that I may be getting too old and fat to do. 'Hamlet,' for example - maybe that's gone. I would love to play Richard II.

I have felt bereft. The city Richard and I knew and loved, that city's gone, I think irrevocably.

I think about a Richard Avedon photo series, the kind of faces he gets of real people, which I find so captivating. Fellini was also great in filling his films with this ambiance, this environment, sometimes chaotic and carnival-like, but people's faces were always amazing.

'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' ends with the spaceship lands and Richard Dreyfuss' character best on, but a bunch of pilots and sailors from the 1940s get off. You kind of wanted to know what happened next.

Before 'Grease 2', I was called the next Richard Gere, then after 'Grease 2', nobody would touch me.

By the nature of the sport and the danger we face daily, we are very close knit. Some of us have spent most of our lives together. To give you an example, having spent two decades sitting next to Richard Johnson and seeing him virtually every day, I have probably spent more time with him than I have my family, and he the same.

But I think Richard will be alright. I don't think it's too serious.

He's just about the best in Oregon. He worked with us on our Richard III three years ago.

Chef Michel Richard is always at the top of his game.

I figure, at my age, I still have three, four, maybe five years in (Champ Car) left in me, but it could be the right time to make a change and I want to take a good look at it. I've talked with some other teams over there (in NASCAR), but Richard Childress is the only one who has stepped up and made something happen at this point.

I carried on acting during school holidays and was all set to go to drama school when I was offered my first professional job appearing in 'King David' with Richard Gere.

I am pleased that when confronted with the overwhelming evidence of wrongdoing, Richard Saint Angel has chosen to withdraw his petition,

He's obviously a big key for us. We have a smaller margin of error with Richard out, but we still have plenty of weapons to where we can win games.

How this all came about was that I went to Charlotte in May for the 600 to see if Richard Childress was telling me the truth about his wine, ... He'd been telling me how good it was, but I guess he couldn't afford the postage to send me a bottle.

I consulted Richard and said 'this is what I think we should do' and he said 'you are absolutely right', even though he is not really a Conservative supporter at all.

I call myself an agnostic. I'm open to change. I'm the same sort of person, although much less aggressive, as Richard Dawkins.

For some reason, I was accepted by the rock folk. Maybe they understood that they and I were on the same side of the Richard Nixon question.

The irony is that we're really good at comedy in Britain, but for some reason, we make very few comedy films. And when we do, they're either quite American in style, or very Richard Curtis. And I like Richard Curtis, but I think only Richard Curtis should write Richard Curtis films, and other people should try and find their own style.

These kids are throwbacks. It's very, very refreshing. You're dealing with different, different kids. Does Chris Richard want to start and score 35 points every game and grab 15 rebounds? Yes. But they're willing to put the team before themselves.

This is our 36th anniversary at our present location in West Hartford - which we plan to celebrate with a gala dinner honoring State Attorney General Richard Blumenthal on June 25. We plan on being here for a long time, and we will continue to play an important role in the community.

The episode of the 'shoe bomber,' Richard Reid, has suddenly meant more feet being bared at airports than at the average Hindu temple. My solution has been to replace my customary lace-up Oxfords with a pair of slip-on loafers when I fly. Generals are always fighting the last war, and security screeners are the same.

The historical irony is that a step that is basically within the discourse of the left is being carried out by a right-wing leader. It is as significant as Richard Nixon going to China.

The indictment of the vice president's chief of staff for perjury and obstruction of justice is an occasion to consider just how damaging the long public career of Richard Cheney has been to the United States.

You want to bet. I want to know who John Doe is, and Richard Roe, or we're leaving. Take your choice.

All those foreign players will be moaning about the amount of games they have played over Christmas. Richard is 37 and he's played four in a week. He was magnificent.

The girls are in a position now that when they do well, they are going to receive the attention. I think that everything that has been asked is all fair and good. I'm just extremely happy to have the opportunity to work with Richard Childress. He's first class.

The first law of reason is what exists, exists;what is, is; and from this irreducible bedrock principleall knowledge is build. He said that was the foundation from which life is embraced. He said thinking is a choice, and that wishes and whims are not facts, nor are they means to discover them. Richard said reason is our only way of grasping reality - that it's our basic tool of survival. We are free to evade the effort of thinking - to reject reason - but we are not free to avoid the penalty of the abyss we refuse to see.

An appeal has been received from Richard Guest, but the matter is now on hold pending a security department investigation into potentially suspicious betting patterns relating to the horse.

We believe that in your province you have granted a second term to our president, George W. Bush, and our vice president, Richard Cheney,

Maybe it's not as bad as it sounds (when asked to comment on the music of Richard Wagner)

I wish that every new and young comedian would understand what Richard was about and not confuse his genius with his language usage.

Take this remark from Richard poor and lame, Whate'er's begun in anger ends in shame
