I think human society for tens of thousands of years has sent young men out in small groups to do things that are necessary but very dangerous. And they've always gotten killed doing it. And they've always turned it into a matter of honor and a way of gaining acceptance back into society if they survived.

You forget that you do choose your life and there are so many things to be grateful for and I feel like society has gotten to that point where we're always looking for the next and the better and we lose sight of what's actually in front of us.

When I got out of acting school I was lucky to have gotten any job at all. A lot of people hiring African American actresses - it was right after 'Roots ' and for society not me it was great. Nice richly dark-skinned people was the fashion and I was not.

First I think the science of monetary economics has clearly gotten better.

One would have to have completely forgotten the history of science so as to not remember that the desire to know nature has had the most constant and the happiest influence on the development of mathematics.

I will be sad. I've gotten very attached to Harry and all that goes on in his world I guess I'll just be kind of tasting every bit of it because it will be the last one.

Before I left for Germany I had gotten accepted to the performing arts high school in New York which was a big dream of mine. And having to leave that was very sad for me.

Divorce was very sad obviously but now I've gotten over it.

My father told me to dress to reflect the respect you have for the people around you. I've never forgotten that.

It's very difficult to talk about religion in Iran because religion has gotten so mixed up with politics.

Women have demanded and gotten better jobs and more power. But the one thing we deserve is a better relationship with ourselves.

We run into some pretty tough arguments sometimes but the idea is that at the end of the day my wife and I realize that we'll always be holding each other's hand. This is a lifelong relationship and after 12 years she hasn't gotten rid of me yet.

Our first scene is sort of a reunion between the X-Men characters which establishes everyone's relationship to one another sort of like a recap for all those who have forgotten since the last movie.

Bill Clinton sitting on Air Force One getting his hair cut while people around the country cooled their heels and waited for him became a metaphor for a populist president who had gotten drunk with the perks of his own power and was sort of you know not sensitive to what people wanted.

I think every time I go in a game I have added something positive. I have gotten a rebound or made a defensive play. That is what I try to focus on.

I've always gotten a positive reaction to doing African-American characters.

As I've gotten older I've gotten more liberal and my father is increasingly conservative. It's so shocking to me because I always thought we had the same politics. The day I realized we voted for different presidents I practically fell out of my chair.

I hate politics. It's slimy. Any job where people pander for votes I don't like. The country has gotten so partisan that if you're not on my side you're the enemy. The only thing I ever try to support is a third party like Unity08. We need more parties and more choice.

If you have always believed that everyone should play by the same rules and be judged by the same standards that would have gotten you labeled a radical 60 years ago a liberal 30 years ago and a racist today.

I don't think American poetry has gotten any better in the past 35 years. Oddly enough creative writing programs seem to have been good for fiction and I would not have predicted that.

I've also gotten to play in front of a million people in Central Park when there was a grass roots movement calling for nuclear disarmament - it was about 1982 - they called it Peace Sunday.

The man who has gotten everything he wants is all in favor of peace and order.

If we have no peace it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.

As regards the individual nature woman is defective and misbegotten for the active power of the male seed tends to the production of a perfect likeness in the masculine sex while the production of a woman comes from defect in the active power.
