Scientific progress makes moral progress a necessity for if man's power is increased the checks that restrain him from abusing it must be strengthened.

Power ought to serve as a check to power.

When people ask me about my story I just go through the positive stuff: the tent-pole moments the big landmark checkpoints.

I think the rules are going to have to change for me to ever run for public office. My checkered past will always keep me out of politics.

I think these movies are as much for people of that time as for people who weren't born. For people who weren't born they see how leaders must act under a crisis situation not trying to be re-elected or not trying to check polls that they go from their gut check.

People feel the worst film I made was 'Jack.' But to this day when I get checks from old movies I've made 'Jack' is one of the biggest ones. No one knows that. If people hate the movie they hate the movie. I just wanted to work with Robin Williams.

Most of the time it's the role. Sometimes it's the story and sometimes it just the paycheck. It's the little movies that come out as stories or the fact that I have work to go out you know what I'm saying you can only be out so long without work you start getting antsy.

I get up in the morning do my e-mail I check my e-mails all day. I'll go online and I'll buy my books at Amazon.com but I don't want to buy all of them because I want to go to Duttons and I want to buy books from another human being.

I doing casual labor by the day. They wouldn't pay you until the next morning. There was a bar that would cash your check if you bought a beer first. A lot of guys never left until they'd drunk up all their money.

Homey don't quit. What else are you gonna do? It's like those guys in the cartoon they get up in the morning check the clock and fight all day and after it's over they check the clock and go home. That's how it goes.

Looking in the mirror to check if my tie is straight is a waste of my time. I only look in the mirror once a day and that's in the morning when I shave.

I don't mind traveling that much when I can go somewhere and stay there for a while but touring is different. You rarely see anything. You get there early in the morning and you're resting all day and you go in and do a sound check and you do the show and then bam you're gone.

I will check the internet for at least an hour every morning scanning worldwide news to do with child abuse. So if you're constantly putting yourself in an environment where you're checking up on social economics or homelessness problems if you keep yourself aware of it you don't really have a day off.

You know if you look back in the 1930s the money went to infrastructure. The bridges the municipal buildings the roads those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure. This stimulus bill has fundamentally gone started out with a $500 rebate check remember. That went to buy flat-screen TVs made in China.

It's good to have money and the things that money can buy but it's good too to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

There's so little money in my bank account my scenic checks show a ghetto.

Now workers should have the right to join unions. But unions should not be forced upon workers. And unions should not have the power to take money our of their members' paychecks to buy the support of politicians that are favored by the union bosses.

I must admit even though I'm the product of two Jewish parents I think the Irish temper got in there somewhere so I'm going to check Mom's genealogy.

Everyone checks out my mom. My mom's hot.

Eating disorders can have serious medical and psychological consequences which left unchecked can kill. Parents should address this issue and ask their children to discuss how they feel about themselves.

It's all kind of a big illusion: the white picket fence and the perfect marriage and the kids. Check that box off check that box off and move forward.

True love comes quietly without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells get your ears checked.

I don't think you ever stop giving. I really don't. I think it's an on-going process. And it's not just about being able to write a check. It's being able to touch somebody's life.

Checking the results of a decision against its expectations shows executives what their strengths are where they need to improve and where they lack knowledge or information.
