There are no instant solutions.

There are no instant solutions.

I am rather in favour of dealing with teenage hooliganism.

Some people, however long their experience or strong their intellect, are temperamentally incapable of reaching firm decisions.

I've never been one to say that Britain was joining a happy band of brothers.

The rule of law should be upheld by all political parties. They should neither advise others to break the law, nor encourage others to do so even when they strongly disagree with the legislation put forward by the government of the day.

A leader must have the courage to act against an expert's advice.

You can never reach the promised land. You can march towards it.

A lie can be halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on.

A leader has to 'appear' consistent. That doesn't mean he has to be consistent.

There is not a single injustice in Northern Ireland that is worth the loss of a single British soldier or a single Irish citizen either.

I sum up the prospects for 1967 in three short sentences. We are back on course. The ship is picking up speed. The economy is moving. Every seaman knows the command at such a moment: 'steady as she goes'.

Your strike will not win. You cannot be allowed to succeed.

I am not proposing to seek your votes because there is a blue sky ahead today.

If the law is a bad law, there is always the contingent right to take action that you would not otherwise take.

I like to think of film-making not just as an act of personal self-aggrandisement but rather as an act of public service.

All I ever wanted to do was get a great job on a TV show. When I read 'Modern Family' and started looking at what was available - I obviously couldn't play Gloria; I couldn't play Claire. When I saw the character of Cam, I was like, 'I have to have a shot at this,' because I thought it was a character that would be really fun to play.

Families can be the most detrimental things to have in your life. They are sometimes the most poisonous relationships that people have. Sometimes family is the thing that keeps you from ever achieving what you want to achieve, and yet people hold it and hold it and grab it and try to fix it and twist it and turn it.

Every addiction is an attempt to slay hope.

I've always strived to keep mixing it up, keep doing different things, and work in all different parts of our business.

I was invited to a couple of races, but I was doing a play in New York.

On the battlefield the military pledges to leave no soldier behind. As a nation let it be our pledge that when they return home we leave no veteran behind.

It's not like what I do, how I write, changes depending on the nature of the project. I give each story my all, regardless of if there are a few thousand people reading it or a few hundred thousand.

Beauty is not who you are on the outside, it is the wisdom and time you gave away to save another struggling soul, like you.

All us Youngs could throw. I used to kill squirrels with a stone when I was a kid, and my granddad once killed a turkey buzzard on the fly with a rock.

The best dreams are the ones you are awake for.

When running to fill a time quota, however, the reverse happens. You can't make that time pass any faster by rushing, so you settle into a pace that feels right to you at the moment. Each minute above a quota is a little victory.

Standing, as I believe the United States stands for humanity and civilization, we should exercise every influence of our great country to put a stop to that war which is now raging in Cuba and give to that island once more peace, liberty, and independence.

I'm fortunately not, like, typecast. I don't have to just do one kind of thing; I can do all kinds of things that reflect different parts of me.

We take so many of our freedoms for granted nowadays - I can travel where I like, I can have a baby when I like, I can do any job I want - but I do think chivalry has been lost a little bit.

The golden rule of conduct is mutual toleration seeing that we will never all think alike and we shall always see Truth in fragment and from different points of vision.

There will be Apple Glass, and Google Glass, and RIM Glass. These companies are all working on glass. I think everyone is going to be making glass. I think we're also going to have a glass war instead of a smartphone war.

'Entourage' was a show that existed around wish-fulfillment. People watched it because they wanted to believe they could go on private jets and be hanging out in Hollywood, but as a show, comedically, it was not funny. Not a funny show. It's funny, ironically, because of how terrible it is.

My identity is not based on performance; it's based on something that's pre-determined by someone else, and I don't even understand what that is because I'm an African who came to America.

Put simply, my vision for AOL is to build the largest and most sophisticated global advertising network while we grow the size and engagement of our worldwide audience.

It wasn't until late in life that I discovered how easy it is to say, 'I don't know.'

Many police departments still use DNA evidence the way they have used fingerprints and tire tracks: to determine whether a suspect committed the crime.

It is not possible to educate the will and the healthy soul that underlies it unless we develop insights that awaken energetic impulses in the soul and will.

If I can talk, I can sing.
