We tried to set up a company that patterned ourselves after Southwest in all the fun the spirit the great people the smile the efficiency side of it but we've added some extras that people aren't used to finding on Southwest.

When you're walking down the street or you're at a restaurant someone catches your eye because they have their own look. It goes way beyond what they're wearing - into their mannerisms the way they smile or just the way they hold themselves.

A beautiful person is someone who stays true to themselves and their spirit someone who is self-confident and can make you smile.

When onstage I always try to take my audience through as many emotions as I possibly can. I want them to go from laughter to tears be shocked and surprised and walk out the door with a renewed sense of themselves - and maybe a smile.

Science is based on the possibility of objectivity on the possibility of different people checking out for themselves the observations made by others. Without that possibility there is no empirical principle capable of deciding between different arguments and theories.

With science fiction I think we are preparing ourselves for contact with them whoever they may be.

I sort of feel that climate change will be solved by science. I just feel instinctively that we will find a way of saving ourselves. But I am less confident that we won't destroy ourselves in other ways.

We asked ourselves and the world to base decisions on good science and I really believe the United States can be the leader in delivering that message to our international trading partners.

I think that if the novel's task is to describe where we find ourselves and how we live now the novelist must take a good hard look at the most central facts of contemporary life - technology and science.

At a time when science plays such a powerful role in the life of society when the destiny of the whole of mankind may hinge on the results of scientific research it is incumbent on all scientists to be fully conscious of that role and conduct themselves accordingly.

Cosmologists have attempted to account for the day-to-day laws you find in textbooks in terms of fundamental 'superlaws ' but the superlaws themselves must still be accepted as brute facts. So maybe the ultimate laws of nature will always be off-limits to science.

We're looking at Earth science observing our planet. Also space science looking at the ozone in the atmosphere around our Earth. Also looking at life science. And on a human level using ourselves as test subjects.

People and especially theologians should try to familiarize themselves with scientific ideas. Of course science is technical in many respects but there are some very good books that try to set out some of the conceptual structure of science.

We've made science experiments of ourselves and our children.

It vexes me when they would constrain science by the authority of the Scriptures and yet do not consider themselves bound to answer reason and experiment.

When I investigate and when I discover that the forces of the heavens and the planets are within ourselves then truly I seem to be living among the gods.

There are a lot of people who consider themselves 'spiritual ' but that can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. I don't really talk about it that often because there's too much talk in the world. Especially with Christians there's more proselytizing than there is actual living proof of it. That's kind of sad.

Women are reputed never to be disgusted. The sad fact is that they often are but not with men following the lead of men they are most often disgusted with themselves.

I remember a time when all my fans were crying and sad and going through hell. Now we're trying to uplift each other and accept ourselves for who we are even if nobody else does.

Among the reasons people keep sad stories to themselves is that they do not want anyone to feel sorry for them. I don't. I don't want you to feel sorry for me.

Well the country songs themselves are three-chord stories ballads which are mostly sad. If you are already feeling sorry for yourself when you listen to them they will take you to an even sadder place.

When I was a child people simply looked about them and were moderately happy today they peer beyond the seven seas bury themselves waist deep in tidings and by and large what they see and hear makes them unutterably sad.

Among the many reasons assignable for the sad decay of true Christianity perhaps the neglecting to assemble ourselves together in religious societies may not be one of the least.

Proud people breed sad sorrows for themselves.
