Would Quotes

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted...If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job Picture Quote #1

Before feminism, work was largely defined as what men did or would do. Thus, a working woman was someone who labored outside the home for money, masculine-style Picture Quote #1

Happy or unhappy, families are all mysterious. We have only to imagine how differently we would be described - and will be, after our deaths - by each of the family members who believe they know us Picture Quote #1

I'm still the same person who grew up mostly in a Midwestern, factory-working neighborhood where talk about self-esteem would have seemed like a luxury Picture Quote #1

Without memory, there is no culture. Without memory, there would be no civilization, no society, no future Picture Quote #1

If someone had told us in 1945 that in our lifetime religious wars would rage on virtually every continent, that thousands of children would once again be dying of starvation, we would not have believed it. Or that racism and fanaticism would flourish once again, we would not have believed it Picture Quote #1

Fame is empowering. My mistake was that I thought I would instinctively know how to handle it. But there's no manual, no training course Picture Quote #1

I have defeated this Earthworm with my words. Imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists Picture Quote #1

Sure, I did a lot of things in excess. But if you look at the core, the foundation of what I pursued, what red-blooded young American male in my position wouldn't? Picture Quote #1

I wish people would shift that focus on to themselves and their own family and their own friends and just maybe spend a little more time on their home front. And not some distant planet that is me Picture Quote #1

(on his firing from Two and a Half Men) I would have fired my ass too. Well, maybe not like they did Picture Quote #1

(on Ashton Kutcher) It's hard to give advice to a guy that accomplished. I would just give him a hug and just say, Make me proud, dude Picture Quote #1

If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25 cars that got 1,000 MPG Picture Quote #1

Like almost everyone who uses e-mail, I receive a ton of spam every day. Much of it offers to help me get out of debt or get rich quick. It would be funny if it weren't so exciting Picture Quote #1

Security is, I would say, our top priority because for all the exciting things you will be able to do with computers - organizing your lives, staying in touch with people, being creative - if we don't solve these security problems, then people will hold back Picture Quote #1

I have to say that in 1981, making those decisions, I felt like I was providing enough freedom for 10 years. That is, a move from 64k to 640k felt like something that would last a great deal of time. Well, it didn't - it took about only 6 years before people started to see that as a real problem Picture Quote #1

If people had understood how patents would be granted when most of today's ideas were invented, and had taken out patents, the industry would be at a complete standstill today. The solution to this is patent exchanges with large companies and patenting as much as we can Picture Quote #1

Like almost everyone who uses e-mail, I receive a ton of spam every day. Much of it offers to help me get out of debt or get rich quick. It would be funny if it weren't so irritating Picture Quote #1

Before Paul and I started the company, we had been involved in some large-scale software projects that were real disasters. They just kept pouring people in, and nobody knew how they were going to stabilize the project. We swore to ourselves that we would do better Picture Quote #1

The obvious mathematical breakthrough would be development of an easy way to factor large prime numbers Picture Quote #1

Only the man who does not need it, is fit to inherit wealth, the man who would make his fortune no matter where he started Picture Quote #1

Buddy Holly was twenty-two. Think of what he might have gone on to achieve. I mean, if Beethoven had been killed in a plane crash at twenty-two, the history of music would have been very different. As would the history of aviation, of course Picture Quote #1

The value or worth of a man is, as of all other things, his price; that is to say, so much as would be given for the use of his power Picture Quote #1
