Now it is time to turn to an older wisdom that while respecting material comfort and security as a basic right of all also recognises that many of the most valuable things in life cannot be measured.

The time I trust will come perhaps within the lives of some of us when the outline of this science will be clearly made out and generally recognised when its nomenclature will be fixed and its principles form a part of elementary instruction.

I'm actually an evangelical atheist but there is something I recognise about religion: that it gives people a chance to surrender.

We recognise in the finished art which is the result of these conditions the best words in the best order - poetry and to put this essential poetry into different classes is impossible.

In remembering the appalling suffering of war on both sides we recognise how precious is the peace we have built in Europe since 1945.

Even though now I'm pretty popular in my country and tennis is the No. 1 sport and I'm very flattered that the people recognise me and come up and give me compliments I'm more a person who likes to have privacy and peace.

Luck is a component that a lot of people in the arts sometimes fail to recognise: that you can have talent perseverance patience but without luck you will not have a successful career.

I'm glad movies aren't going to please everybody they can't. But what they have to be is recognisable. I don't equate myself with a master painter but I think you can recognise my films.

I cry a lot you know. Which is very difficult for a man to recognise but I do. I cry in movies you know just watching movies.

It is generally recognised that women are better than men at languages personal relations and multi-tasking but less good at map-reading and spatial awareness. It is therefore not unreasonable to suppose that women might be less good at mathematics and physics.

We need to recognise that the whole edifice of our fifth estate of our journalism has been built on a foundation of newspaper journalism and that that foundation is crumbling. The management of the media companies will deny that the end is nigh. I hope they are right.

An expectation is a future object recognised as belonging to me.

You don't have to be rich and famous. You just have to be an ordinary person doing extraordinary things. I'd like more people to know that it's there. Women's achievements still aren't recognised enough in many areas.

Its only when you are a great actor and are recognised for your good work that you become famous. Unless you are in the news for the wrong reasons!

I don't like being recognised I have no interest in being famous at all I just do what I do. If I could be like Captain Kirk and beam myself up and then beam myself down I would!

Quite often I can be in a bookshop standing beneath a great big picture of myself and paying for a book with a credit card clearly marked John Grisham yet no one recognises me. I often say I'm a famous author in a country where no one reads.

When famous people come up to you it's a bit weird but it's an honour really when they recognise you and want to chat to you for a bit.

We need to recognise that what really matters isn't buying more and more consumer goods but family friends and knowing that we are doing something worthwhile with our lives. Helping to reduce the appalling consequences of world poverty should be part of that reassessment.

Experience - the wisdom that enables us to recognise in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced.

I should like to suggest to you that the cause of all the economic troubles is that we have an economic system which tries to maintain an equality of value between two things which it would be better to recognise from the beginning as of unequal value.

We do recognise the need to move towards the publication of information showing the progress made by pupils from one stage of their education to another.

Somehow knowing that Alzheimer's is coming mocks all one's aspirations - to tell stories to think through certain issues as only a novel can do to be recognised for one's accomplishments and hard work - in a way that old familiar death does not.

It's cool to be recognised by your peers.

I get recognised sometimes and that's really cool. I've tried certain disguises but that doesn't work.
