Events Quotes

My niece was born with cystic fibrosis 15 years ago, and she’s incredibly healthy and an incredible competitive dancer, so I’m going to do some events for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Picture Quote #1

I know people could tell incredible stories. People have been in concentration camps, or women being raped, or a man going to war and not recovering from it. People have been robbed and beaten. A lot of people have had strong events in their life, which I didn’t Picture Quote #1

Nineteen sixty-eight was one exciting moment in a much larger movement. It spawned a whole range of movements. There wouldn’t have been an international global solidarity movement, for instance, without the events of 1968. It was enormous, in terms of human rights, ethnic rights, a concern for the environment, too Picture Quote #1

Our inner weighing of evidence is not a careful mathematical calculation resulting in a probabilistic estimate of truth, but more like a whirlpool blending of the objective and the personal. The result is a set of beliefs - both conscious and unconscious - that guide us in interpreting all the events of our lives Picture Quote #1

We now know that we cannot continue to put ever-increasing amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. Actions have consequences. In fact, the consequences of past actions are already in the pipeline. Global temperatures are rising. Glaciers are melting. Sea levels are rising. Extreme weather events are multiplying Picture Quote #1

Men’s actions to futurity appear but as the events to which they are conjoined do give them consequence Picture Quote #1

I conduct very few interviews with veterans. The contemporaneous, or near-contemporaneous, record for WWII is so spectacularly deep that latter-day recollections are largely unnecessary for a historian. Of course, in considering any account, I’m looking for additional sources that can confirm or enlarge that version of events Picture Quote #1

Most of my books are about contemporary subjects, and the world changes so fast that I’m lucky when events haven’t overtaken the book I’m writing at the moment Picture Quote #1

You can get into a place in your life where you no longer are in control of events, and events are in control of you Picture Quote #1

When you’re traveling constantly, every day you become inspired, and it shows in my work, sonically, lyrically, visually. Conversations with women with different accents and stories told in those accents. I like to create characters based on different people I’ve met, and relationships. I like to tell stories loosely based on real-life events Picture Quote #1

We have allowed an unholy alliance of government - the new monarchy - and corporate influence - the new aristocracy - to take control of events in a way that would have made our Founders shudder Picture Quote #1

The Inhumans are almost a mythological creation unto themselves. They’re royalty, and are always involved in Marvel’s cosmic events. But with the explosion of the Terrigen bomb and these new Inhumans coming to light, it brings a new street level aspect to add to the royalty aspect Picture Quote #1

I suspect that we are all recipients of cosmic love notes. Messages, omens, voices, cries, revelations, and appeals are homogenized into each day’s events. If only we knew how to listen, to read the signs Picture Quote #1

The costs savings was a big win, but now we also have a schedule of events and are clearly aware of when our contracts begin and end...we are much more strategic about how we source now Picture Quote #1

Historians will handle a much wider range of sources than a biographer and will be covering a broader spectrum of events, time, peoples Picture Quote #1

Rock is stronger than any misguided theories of cultural events. It’s bigger than that Picture Quote #1

I was sure we would never see the adoption of the Euro. Countries giving up their currencies for a common tender was, it seemed to me, completely out of tune with currency being a carrier of people’s cultural identity, celebrating national heroes and events, as it had been for hundreds of years Picture Quote #1

Conflicts are never caused in any simple way by identity, culture or economics. Where resources are scarce, or there are strong historical memories of conflict, small events are more likely to inflame passions Picture Quote #1

I’m very lucky, because my beat is current events. And events are changing all the time Picture Quote #1

To me, the real ‘state of the union’ is found in how Americans react to current events Picture Quote #1

I try to be a good human being and keep up with what’s going on in the world by reading and staying in touch with the current events Picture Quote #1

I don’t know how much you follow current events. For some, there’s not enough time to keep up on what’s happening; for others, the news is too depressing, and peering too deeply fills one with boiling frustration all too quickly Picture Quote #1

For 18 years I have resisted talking about current events. I am not going to start now Picture Quote #1

But I don’t think that poetry is a good, to use a contemporary word, venue, for current events Picture Quote #1

To view current events as a historian is to account for all perspectives, even those of your enemy Picture Quote #1

Landscapes, heads and naked women are called artistic photography, while photographs of current events are called press photography Picture Quote #1

As the news agenda goes into warp speed, it becomes ever more difficult for authors writing about current events to keep their books timely and relevant Picture Quote #1

I like fiction and the kind of history that gives the grace and flavor of fiction to the past. No bloviation on current events, please. I can write that junk myself Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to do more significant stuff. I think of myself as well-informed, but the hardest thing to do is talk about politics and current events and be funny and not just preachy Picture Quote #1

I’m not interested in current events per se, but I am interested in how certain aspects of social or public life that might seem ultra-contemporary actually take their place in a long American continuum Picture Quote #1
