I don't think there are many larger lessons to be found in sports.
Julie Mia and I just met for a couple days doing some work but really under the guise of having fun. We do events like the Women's Sports Foundation Dinner where we get to not only do a good thing for the community but we get to hang out with one another again.
I used to sports gamble a lot and I was getting killed on that but then I found poker and really enjoyed it. But it was a hobby more than anything else. I played it every day but only on pretty small stakes.
But I was so wrapped up in sports growing up as a kid that I think I was going to grow to be a pro ball player. But I found out real quick that was not going to happen.
I think for the most part people are proud of the bicultural foundation New Zealand is built on and the fact that we are a multicultural society.
My foundations support people in the country who care about an open society. It's their work that I'm supporting. So it's not me doing it. But I can empower them. I can support them and I can help them.
I give away something up to $500 million a year throughout the world promoting Open Society. My foundations support people in the country who care about an open society. It's their work that I'm supporting. So it's not me doing it.
I do earnestly wish to see the distinction of sex confounded in society unless where love animates the behaviour.
Land: A part of the earth's surface considered as property. The theory that land is property subject to private ownership and control is the foundation of modern society and is eminently worthy of the superstructure.
When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut I can only think that American society has found one more way to destroy itself.
When a nation goes down or a society perishes one condition may always be found they forgot where they came from. They lost sight of what had brought them along.
I will spend the next four years rebuilding the foundation of a opportunity society led by free people and free enterprises.
Clinton's hands remain incredibly clean don't they and Tony Blair's smile remains as wide as ever. I view these guises with profound contempt.
I have found that a smile and a stick will carry you through all right and in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred it is the smile that does the trick.
I'm crazy about Grant: his character his nature his science in fighting and everything else. But I don't like the idea that he never accepted the blame for anything always found someone else to blame for any mistake that was ever made including blaming Prentiss for Shiloh.
All the mathematical sciences are founded on relations between physical laws and laws of numbers so that the aim of exact science is to reduce the problems of nature to the determination of quantities by operations with numbers.
I believe that science fiction is as profound as you want it to be or it can be very simple entertainment and I'm all for very simple entertainment. Every now and then we all need to come home veg-out watch something and not think too deeply about it. It's what you want it to be. We tend to steer clear of being pedantic it's entertainment first otherwise we'd be on a lecture circuit.
Science moves with the spirit of an adventure characterized both by youthful arrogance and by the belief that the truth once found would be simple as well as pretty.
I was sent to a finishing school which didn't last long when mother found out how badly chaperoned we were. Then I 'came out' before going to a domestic science school.
In order for America to remain a global leader in innovation and opportunity we must give our children a solid foundation in math and science.
Now Venus is an extremely hostile environment and as such presents a lot of challenges for a science fiction author who wants to create life there. However as I began to research it more thoroughly I found myself intrigued by the possibilities the world offers.
Like many students I found the drudgery of real experiments and the slowness of progress a complete shock and at my low points I contemplated other alternative careers including study of the philosophy or sociology of science.
There were certain questions about the foundations of morals that advances in science all threaten to make more complicated.
We have found that where science has progressed the farthest the mind has but regained from nature that which the mind put into nature.
Nonetheless do I have respect for people who believe in the hereafter? Of course I do. I might add perhaps even a touch of envy too because of the solace.
