I liked Truman very much. He was precise and businesslike. After a while, it was his turn.

I have been driven demented in my career.

I am much more intelligent than you think.

This is the war I fear.

The primary factor in a successful attack is speed.

I suppose you can say I became an odd-job man.

No one person invented Mulberry. The knowledge that we had to have this floating harbor slowly grew.

It never entered my father's mind nor my mind ever to do a job othe than at one's best ability.

Men o' war were to be a part of the fabric of my life for the next half-century.

Prince Charles is an absolute Mountbatten. The real intelligence in the royal family comes through my parents to Prince Philip and the children.

Here I am in my first command - a bit dazed but feeling very grand.

I was born with an ability to concentrate very hard on a job for a long time.

I believe firmly that it was the Almighty's goodness, to check my consummate vanity.

I was so keen to get back to sea. I was rattled.

Even that crazy lunatic, my aunt the Empress, wa absolutely sweet and charming.

You can divide my life into two.

It is a curious thing, but I have been right in everything I have done and said in my life.

My trophy value exceeded my military usefulness.

Churchill was the canny political animal, very devious, bursting with energy and determination, learning as hard as he could.

What do you do if you are asked to do a job, first by the Prime Minister, and then by the King? How can you refuse?

My mother said, Don't worry abot what people think now. Think about whether your children and grandchildren will think you've done well.

Never feel that a piece of criticism or advice is too much trouble to give, or that it exceeds your province.

The team should have implicit confidence in the captain's decisions.

In 1966 I became president of the British Computer Society.

I liked Truman very much. He was precise and businesslike. After a while, it was his turn.

My father was afraid of his father, I was afraid of my father, and I don't see why my children shouldn't be afraid of me.

I cant think of a more wonderful thanksgiving for the life I have had than that everyone should be jolly at my funeral.

I'm not as thrilled with myself as I used to be.

I don't know about style. I know about my personal style.

I try to stick with things that I can sing with honesty.

I not only wanted to showcase lyrical skills but also continue to drop knowledge on the hiphop community. I'm looking to elevate through my music, and through my music I educate.

You have to study a great deal to know a little.

You'd think, 'What if I make a mistake today, I'll regret it'. I don't believe in regret, I feel everything leads us to where we are and we have to just jump forward, mean well, commit and just see what happens.

I couldn't recommend more that people put themselves in a situation where they can see a lot of work that they admire, and for free.

When you saw Jon Lovitz or Dana Carvey or Phil Hartman doing something, they were acting. It was real acting. Like, they were acting like that person. They weren't like - it wasn't even like they were really trying to go for a laugh, especially in Phil Hartman's case.

The landlady of a boarding-house is a parallelogram - that is, an oblong angular figure, which cannot be described, but which is equal to anything.

I have been to several wars to draw. I went to Vietnam. And made drawings in Vietnam during that period of the war there, and found that to be a very very sad situation.

Yes, we can pay the interest on the debt. We can renew the $500 billion worth of bonds that are coming due. We can mail out our Social Security checks. We can make sure those Medicare claims are honored. We can pay our military. We can protect our veterans. But when you get beyond that, the soup gets a little thin.

I love you. Today. Right now. Just as you are. And I know, with time we will change. We will evolve. We will grow. And I hope we do all of it together.

I gave it my body and mind, but I have kept my soul.

My hunch is that probably men are doing more both outside the home and inside the home.

I used to love writing in my journal.

If you are afraid, don't do it. If you decide to do it, don't be afraid.

One of the big changes in politics has been because families, individuals, have felt worried, insecure... worried about the economy, worried about their jobs, worried about their kids' futures... actually the disconnect between the public and media discourse and people's everyday concerns has become bigger not smaller.

There is reverence that we owe to everything in human shape.

To survive, China had to open up to the West. It could not survive otherwise. This was after many millions have died of hunger in a country that was like North Korea is today. Once we became part of global competition, we had to agree to some rules. It's painful, but we had to. Otherwise there was no way to survive.

There are so many things you can learn about, but you'll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut

I dated all these girls and ended up not liking them and thought to myself, 'What was it that all of them had in common?' They had too much time on their hands. Even though they were pretty, they lacked something. A woman could be less attractive but with ambition and drive, that's the most beautiful thing.
