In 1917 - as we have seen, - Italy suffered a great reverse, losing 200,000 soldiers and immense supplies.

I see that the path of progress has never taken a straight line, but has always been a zigzag course amid the conflicting forces of right and wrong, truth and error, justice and injustice, cruelty and mercy.

The collapse of Russia was the second great event of 1917.

When the armistice was declared American forces had fought their way to Sedan.

In the early days of his reign, Bismarck confided to a friend that it would some day be necessary for Germany to confine William II in an insane asylum.

No American can read the story of the part America took in the war without experiencing a glow of patriotic feeling. Every Allied nation can say the same thing.

Having achieved such signal successes in the east, Russia and Roumania being both disposed of, the German leaders planned a campaign designed to crush Italy.

The French were generous in giving us assistance in corps and army artillery, with its personnel, and we were confident from the start of our superiority over the enemy in guns of all calibers.

The success of the Allies in the west was in a measure offset by Teutonic victories in the east. When the invasion of Belgium began, Russia made immediate efforts to counteract by invasion of East Prussia.

The eventual place the American army should take on the western front was to a large extent influenced by the vital question of communication and supply.

With Germany herself falling, it is not strange that the nations leagued with her also went down to defeat.

The year 1915 was one of meager results, the advantages remaining on the side of the Central Powers, with this understanding, however: The Allies were growing stronger because Great Britain was making rapid progress in marshaling her resources for war.

Moreover, broad plans commensurate with our national purpose and resources would bring conviction of our power to every soldier in the front line, to the nations associated with us in the war, and to the enemy.

For a century after the reign of Frederick, Prussia remained the most prominent Germanic state in Europe.

To meet the shortage of supplies from America, due to lack of shipping, the representatives of the different supply departments were constantly in search of available material and supplies in Europe.

The Engineer Corps is charged with all construction, including light railways and roads.

Germany expected that at the most a day or so would see Belgian resistance broken and the dash on Paris begun. It was not safe to start such a forward rush with Belgium unconquered.

Conscienceless efficiency is no match for efficiency quickened by conscience.

If initiative is the ability to do the right thing, then efficiency is the ability to do the thing right.

I don't relax. I sit down and contemplate all the energetic things I should do.

The big problem that is holding back Linux is games. People don't realize how critical games are in driving consumer purchasing behavior. We want to make it as easy as possible for the 2,500 games on Steam to run on Linux as well.

I have no intention of hiding who I am because I know I have done nothing wrong.

In some ways, people forget about average working people, and how they live their lives.

To be radical is to grasp things by the root.

Winners in life don't always win; they just don't give up.

'Senior Citizen' and 'Silver Surfer' are the new euphemisms. Unless you're a female presenter on TV, in which case you're ready for the knacker's yard at 35.

Your parents would not be happy if you came home and said you wanted to grow up to be a chef or a rock star.

What Einstein was able to do was - to use a cliche - think out of the box.

I wish you could see some of the girls I have genuinely had crushes on in my life. They're not the girls you would assume.

You know, the courts may not be working any more, but as long as everyone is videotaping everyone else, justice will be done.

The negative side is that sometimes it is beyond control.

Our reactor actually burns nuclear waste as fuel. So not only is it safe and powerful, it solves an important issue: It actually reduces nuclear waste instead of creating. It's the reactor of your dreams.

Teach For China recruits top American and Chinese college graduates, like 26-year-old Yang Xiao, to teach in the country's most disadvantaged schools.

Confidentiality is a virtue of the loyal, as loyalty is the virtue of faithfulness.

Next, in importance to books are their titles.

There are so many devices that can receive video, creating complexities, because suddenly you can have a TV, laptop, smartphone, pads. And they are of different sizes. It's clear that you need to standardise and get a much more efficient TV delivery.

A big part of the anti-immigration narrative is the perception that the majority of immigrants are poor, uneducated, and unskilled.

After 'Born to Run,' I had a reaction to my good fortune. With success, it felt like a lot of people who'd come before me lost some essential part of themselves. My greatest fear was that success was going to change or diminish that part of myself.

If you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it. It really is public brainwashing and misinformation.

I like Strahan a lot. I've known him for years. He was a Giant here - in many ways. Had a big following with the New York Giants. He's very funny. He's got a great sense of humor.

I think we get too hung up on categories. Obviously, the book market has to categorise things, and it makes it easier for a reader to go into a bookshop and choose, but as a writer, it helps to get rid of all of that and imagine you are a storyteller around a campfire.

Bond in 'Goldeneye' is pretty much a set character. To be honest, he's another version of Connery, and Connery was terrific. How many submarines can you blow up? How many control rooms are evaporating?

I actually had an experience where I thought somebody was breaking into my house. That's got to be the most terrified I've ever been in my life. I don't know if that's saying much. The fear, especially as a female in a house by yourself, was horrible.
