While I do commend the Administration on its commitment and focus on high school reform I believe that we must focus on graduation as the key accountability measure.

Government does not have a revenue problem government has a spending problem. Government does not have a revenue problem government has a priority problem. It is time that we begin to fine tune our focus and decide what the priority of government ought to be.

We've been so preoccupied with getting the government to behave in a fair and democratic way we were not able to focus on the private sector where most of the jobs are where most of the wealth and opportunities are.

But then it hasn't really been a focus of our government to make us an educated people.

As a governor I am naturally inclined to focus on the domestic side of protecting the United States.

Life takes its path and sometimes there are people to blame. Of course there are bad people in this world. Good bad it happens unfortunately. But in a way I think if there was more focus on the good more good would happen.

When trouble comes focus on God's ability to care for you.

I would tell 17-year-olds to be proud of who you are. Don't try to change yourself for others. Focus on school and your future. Boys and friends will come and go just focus on you and your future.

Anything you're trying to will is focused on the future it's always associated with some sort of anxiety that makes the present moment somewhat uncomfortable.

There is a huge need and a huge opportunity to get everyone in the world connected to give everyone a voice and to help transform society for the future. The scale of the technology and infrastructure that must be built is unprecedented and we believe this is the most important problem we can focus on.

My entire life has been an attempt to get back to the kind of feelings you have on a field. The sense of brotherhood the esprit de corps the focus - there being no past or future just the ball. As trite as it sounds I was happiest playing ball.

To me living in the present means being aware of your conscious choice to focus on the past present or future - it is not necessarily having to focus on the present.

Scientists will eventually stop flailing around with solar power and focus their efforts on harnessing the only truly unlimited source of energy on the planet: stupidity. I predict that in the future scientists will learn how to convert stupidity into clean fuel.

Girls are the future mothers of our society and it is important that we focus on their well-being.

I try to learn from the past but I plan for the future by focusing exclusively on the present. That's were the fun is.

I know why I am here and my only real focused goal is to live each day to the fullest and to try and honor God and be an encouragement to others. What the future holds is firmly in God's hands and I am very happy about that!

Sometimes you have to take the focus off of you and put it on someone else and it's funny what you can accomplish and how much strength you really have.

When it comes to war we focus more on the mainstream coverage of the event rather than the event itself. People dying is never funny. Protest puppets are always funny.

It's so funny because right now I'm very tired and my brains a little dead I tend to get very focused and serious. So I'm probably coming off a lot more like Scully right now.

I think I have an inner confidence that my tastes are pretty simple that what I find funny finds a wide audience. I'm not particularly intellectual or clever or minority-focused in my creative instincts. And I'm certainly not aware of suppressing more sophisticated ambitions.

My hair has never been my greatest feature so that was funny enough unto itself that my hair became so focused on.

But you can't focus on things that matter if all you've been is asleep for forty years. Funny how sleep rhymes with sheep. You know.

I'm the only girl on The Food Network who grills - I have two bestselling grilling books. I try to really focus on what men and women can do outside together out on the grill. I think it's really fun to have men and women out there together having fun working and enjoying themselves.

There's the issue of hunger and there's an issue of if you're going to cut out food programs. We should be focusing on healthy food. Right now fruits and vegetables are very expensive. So what can we do on the policy side to bring the cost of fruits and vegetables down?
