Text Quotes
It is often asserted that woman owes all the advantages of the position she occupies to-day to Christianity, but the facts of history show that the Christian Church has done nothing specifically for woman’s elevation. In the general march of civilization, she has necessarily reaped the advantage of man’s higher development, but we must not claim for Christianity all that has been achieved by science, discovery and invention (General Quotes)
I don’t think of myself as a feminist, but if someone calls me a feminist icon, that’s fine. I’ve always stood up for women and myself in general. I have a great love and respect, because I have had beautiful sisters, aunts and my grandmas, but I love men. I totally understand the nature of men (General Quotes)
I was in Iraq, Afghanistan, Djibouti, Bahrain. The first year I went pretty much by myself. Then I went with General [Richard] Myers, head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The shows and audiences were amazing. You’ll never get a better group of people (General Quotes)
I feel we need to stop worrying about pro-gay movements and start worrying about fundamentalist movements. It’s not just about how gay people are treated - it’s about how people are treated in general (General Quotes)
Local television shows do not, in general, supply make-up artists. The exception to this is Los Angeles, an unusually generous city in this regard, since they also provide this service for radio appearances (General Quotes)
Electricity is an example of a general purpose technology, like the steam engine before it. General purpose technologies drive most economic growth, because they unleash cascades of complementary innovations, like lightbulbs and, yes, factory redesign (General Quotes)
[John Wheeler] rejuvenated general relativity; he made it an experimental subject and took it away from the mathematicians (General Quotes)
The slogan offers a counterweight to the general dispersion of thought by holding it fast to a single, utterly succinct and unforgettable expression, one which usually inspires men to immediate action. It abolishes reflection: the slogan does not argue, it asserts and commands (General Quotes)
If we confine ourselves to a general and distant reflection on the ills of human life, that can have no effect to prepare us for them. If by close and intense meditation we render them present and intimate to us, that is the true secret for poisoning all our pleasures, and rendering us perpetually miserable (General Quotes)
Prior to the meeting, there was a prayer. In general, in the United States there was always praying (General Quotes)
Then the American flag was saluted. In general, in the United States people always salute the American flag (General Quotes)
The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide (General Quotes)
General Wesley Clark commented on Gore endorsing Howard Dean. He said endorsements don’t win elections. Hey, in this country, votes don’t even win elections (General Quotes)
A lot of people are now criticizing Attorney General John Ashcroft for his policy on detaining what he considers suspicious people. I think he’s going a little overboard. Today, he arrested the entire band Foreigner (General Quotes)
Attorney General John Ashcroft said there is a new credible terrorist threat. He said everything is under control; not to panic. And then he went back to his harmonically sealed bunker (General Quotes)
On the one hand I follow a vocation because I have an ability that I should exercise, but I want to use it for a reason, because I don’t see that the freedoms that I enjoy are God-given realities. So I have a very healthy, activist general tension in me which feels that no, this is not gratuitous, it is important to keep this in focus (General Quotes)
I am certain that a solution of the general problem of peace must rest on broad and basic understanding on the part of its peoples. Great single endeavors like a League of Nations, a United Nations, and undertakings of that character, are of great importance and in fact absolutely necessary, but they must be treated as steps toward the desired end (General Quotes)
It may be desirable to explain, that by the word operation, we mean any process which alters the mutual relation of two or more things, be this relation of what kind it may. This is the most general definition, and would include all subjects in the universe (General Quotes)
When I was first elected I got 50% of the vote in 77 in the general election. In 81 I got 75%. In 85, I got 78%. No mayor has ever gotten that high a vote. So it was not an issue. Except for people who were very hostile to me. They thought they would injure me (General Quotes)
As a dancer, I know couples that have stayed married but separated to dance on different continents. Dance in general, but ballet in particular, is such a finite career. You can’t do it later in life, and it’s something that I think a dancer has to have some selfishness to fulfill (General Quotes)
Air pollution is not merely a nuisance and a threat to health. It is a reminder that our most celebrated technological achievements-the automobile, the jet plane, the power plant, industry in general, and indeed the modern city itself-are, in the environment, failures (General Quotes)
The day General Soleimani flew back from Moscow to Iran was the day we believed that Russia used cyber warfare against the joint chiefs. We need a new commander in chief that will stand up to our enemies (General Quotes)
I didn’t really get into underground comics, though I’ve liked some of what I’ve seen. Dame Darcy was very impressive to meet, really talented. In general, I’ve always been more interested in searching out music, so I think I miss out on a lot of underground art (General Quotes)
The whole thing in general started by us wanting to impact the Kingdom and bringing as much glory to God as possible. That’s still our overall purpose, but God’s given us to passions. That’s to impact the non-believer and let them know through our actions and through our music and through our shows that there is hope, there is meaning, there is purpose in this life (General Quotes)
The people who started the American government, the founders of the Constitution, didn’t like political parties but they were forced to start them. Nobody ever created political parties in England, they evolved. And there do tend to be two general tendencies that focus around how much government you think you need (General Quotes)
Since becoming a mother, I’d say it’s more so affected my general outlook on things. I’m less worried about everything. Less scared to make those numbers that people think are standard or less scared to create something that maybe I don’t think people are going to like, because it’s all about if I like it. I need to be happy (General Quotes)
During my time as a judge, as a justice, and as attorney general, I’ve had one overarching goal, and that is a strict interpretation and application of the laws and the Constitution. I would be Madisonian (General Quotes)
When sighted people cover their eyes or find themselves in a dark place, this is something that’s very terrifying for us. And so in general, we assume that this is what blindness means. But of course, it isn’t. For people who were born blind or who go blind at a very young age, that’s not at all what blindness means (General Quotes)
So one thing that I want to do is to make people realize that astronauts in general are very normal people. They are down to Earth, so to speak. I know it sounds contradictive, but we are very normal people. We are very normal people with a fantastic privilege and opportunity to do something that is extraordinary (General Quotes)
The general public doesn’t expect romance authors to be Harvard graduates. Which is funny, because there are actually quite a lot of us. But this disconnect means that journalists see me as an interesting story. The tricky part is making sure they understand that there are many, many talented writers who don’t have ‘fancy’ educations (General Quotes)
