We have seen economic growth. But we have not seen earnings growth.

I can think of some things that would be fun, but I'm living my dreams.

I was raised in Hollywood and knew, from as early as grammar school, classmates who were in the business.

My dreams for the future are simple: work, a happy, healthy family, a lovely long motorcycle ride, and continuing the struggle to awaken people to the need for serious human rights reform.

People seem to see no difference between an intimate conversation and a conversation at the water cooler.

I gave away two dogs years ago because I felt guilty at not being able to give them the time and attention they deserved. I now regularly feed an army of squirrels and wild birds around our house.

I think it's appropriate for the international community in situations like this to intervene in Kosovo. I am in favor of an intervention. On some level, you have to say that at least somebody is doing something.

It is inappropriate for the Bush administration to trump up a case in which we are ballyhooed into war.

If you try to do your best there is no failure.

What one gets, I hope, is that all you can do is the best you can do.

It's mostly the financial chicanery that's going on. People are saying 'What kind of trust can we put in this market?'

We have seen economic growth. But we have not seen earnings growth.

'M*A*S*H,' to me, was about something. It had value beyond the laughs.

I am often stunned and charmed by the simple brilliance of what children say. But you have to be willing to listen.

I think the media could be a very good force for good, and I think Hollywood can, as well.

It's a curious thing about celebrity: being somebody who was one of the stars of one of the most popular television shows in history offers an opportunity. I look at it as an ambassadorial opportunity at times, where I can go to places and have the opportunity to do things and meet people that other people don't have.

My father was a gruff Irishman who was unable to express feelings and always insisted we be tough. Being a parent, for me, means creating what I didn't have. I want my children to feel love and be able to express it.

People warned us that if we went to them whenever they cried and refused to spank them, we would harm them irrevocably, but we decided there's simply no way to spoil a child. After all, they aren't apples.

People who know me know that I'm always interested in an honest, civil exchange of views, and I'm not some Hollywood liberal know-nothing.

The networks are business-oriented cowards.

The show that defined 'M*A*S*H' was the original interview episode with Clete Roberts. That was a way to look into these peoples' lives and investigate their situation, their feelings being away from home on an intimate level.

The individual organs follow the same pattern as the whole organism, i.e. they have their period of growth, of stationary, maximum activity and then of aging decline.

I take great pride in having been able to overcome the Asian financial crisis and seeking the opportunities available to bring about an unprecedented growth in the economy.

Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.

Genius is not a possession of the limited few, but exists in some degree in everyone. Where there is natural growth, a full and free play of faculties, genius will manifest itself.

The investor of today does not profit from yesterday's growth.

Promoting job creation and economic growth in the Hudson Valley is one of my top priorities in Congress.

We will see the increasingly rapid rate of growth we've already been seeing in Colorado continue.

The growth of technology is such that it is not possible today for a nuclear physicist to switch into medical physics without training. The field is now much more technical. More training is needed to do the job.

We have stabilized our economy. We took over a very sick economy, and we were hemorrhaging 750,000 jobs a month. We have stopped the hemorrhaging. In fact, we had 140,000 job growth last month. And that's what I call progress.

We got to know the competition very well. In the '50s popcorn made a big growth in sales. Our main push was to produce the best quality and sell in quality retail outlets.

Happiness, contentment, the health and growth of the soul, depend, as men have proved over and over again, upon some simple issue, some single turning of the soul.

It's hard to find a way forward. When you're 18 it happens in huge chunks every day, but after 20 years, growth is much more costly.

I think that obstacles lead to growth and ultimately, the most learning I've done in my life is between jobs.

Well, WorldCom's growth exploded in the Clinton years, there's no question, there's no disputing that.

Growth is a painful process.

The organizational architecture is really that a centipede walks on hundred legs and one or two don't count. So if I lose one or two legs, the process will go on, the organization will go on, the growth will go on.

Modern techniques have torn down state frontiers, both economical and intellectual. The growth of means of transport has created a world market and an opportunity for division of labor embracing all the developed and most of the undeveloped states.

Technological innovation is indeed important to economic growth and the enhancement of human possibilities.

Research and development needs permanent tax credits to build the technology that spurs our growth. But no government programs alone can get America's students to study more science and math; parents must push and help their children to meet this goal.

Globalization presumes sustained economic growth. Otherwise, the process loses its economic benefits and political support.

In fact, 80 percent of our domestic job growth comes from the small- and medium-sized business community.

This radical transformation of world power relationships reflects primarily in the case of both the USA and the USSR the growth of the productive forces.

It seems true that the growth of science and secularism made organized Christianity feel under threat.

I think the most beautiful thing is that we're not parting because there were problems. We're parting because we're celebrating each others' growth.

The rapid growth in many of our suburbs has spawned a booming construction industry eager to hire low wage immigrants who gladly fill these jobs, many of them happy to be paid in cash, free of federal and state taxes.

Infinite growth of material consumption in a finite world is an impossibility.

Risk is essential. There is not growth of inspiration in staying within what is safe and comfortable. Once you find out what you do best, why not try something else?

As sure as the spring will follow the winter, prosperity and economic growth will follow recession.
