I learned more from my mother than from all the art historians and curators who have informed me about technical aspects of art history and art appreciation over the years.

The history of man is the history of crimes and history can repeat. So information is a defence. Through this we can build we must build a defence against repetition.

To get away from poverty you need several things at the same time: school health and infrastructure - those are the public investments. And on the other side you need market opportunities information employment and human rights.

I also rise today in strong support of forward movement on the implementation of health information technology which has the potential to save the United States billions of dollars in health care costs each year.

If a State has reliable scientific information that demonstrates that a warning is needed for a particular food then in the interest of public health it should share that information with the FDA and petition for a new national standard.

As problems like identity theft become more prevalent now more than ever Americans need to take their financial health seriously - and this information is of the utmost importance.

We have really good data that show when you take patients and you really inform them about their choices patients make more frugal choices. They pick more efficient choices than the health care system does.

As patients and consumers we are better informed today about our health care than any previous generation.

Fear is a question: What are you afraid of and why? Just as the seed of health is in illness because illness contains information your fears are a treasure house of self-knowledge if you explore them.

We all want more information available when making health care decisions for ourselves and our families.

And so to those who suggest that we are somehow 'harming' young women by encouraging them to take charge of their health we say this: We are not harming young women by educating them. We are arming them with information that they will carry with them throughout their lives.

When the honour is given to that scientist personally the happiness is sweet indeed. Science is on the whole an informal activity a life of shirt sleeves and coffee served in beakers.

I've done an informal anecdotal survey about marriage and I've found no evidence that it brings happiness.

We all agree that its fit to be as Happy as we can and we need no Instructor to teach us this Knowledge 'tis born with us and is inseparable from our Being but we very much need to be Inform'd what is the true Way to Happiness.

Well there are two kinds of happiness grounded and ungrounded. Ungrounded happiness is cheesy and not based on reality. Grounded happiness is informed happiness based on the knowledge that the world sometimes sucks but even then you have to believe in yourself.

I think young writers should get other degrees first social sciences arts degrees or even business degrees. What you learn is research skills a necessity because a lot of writing is about trying to find information.

My house was bugged. They couldn't find any information on me being a subversive because I happen to love America I just don't like some of the things the government is doing.

Power must be used but it must be tempered by soul-searching and the recognition of our human capacity for error. That is the maxim that should inform our approach to every challenge from reforming state government to engaging in foreign affairs.

If Bush as I believe has reliable information on the fact that Saddam Hussein is making weapons of mass destruction I cannot not support the policies of his government.

The control of information is something the elite always does particularly in a despotic form of government. Information knowledge is power. If you can control information you can control people.

A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy or perhaps both.

History in general only informs us of what bad government is.

Whenever the people are well-informed they can be trusted with their own government.

It is no good getting furious if you get stuck. What I do is keep thinking about the problem but work on something else. Sometimes it is years before I see the way forward. In the case of information loss and black holes it was 29 years.
