My hair has never been my greatest feature, so that was funny enough unto itself that my hair became so focused on.

China has existed within very roughly its present borders for over two millennia and for virtually the whole of that period saw itself as a ‘civilisation state.’ It was only when it was too weak...

It is vital that the World Bank Group continually challenges itself to refresh our development thinking. It is vital that a modernized multilateralism be open to new ideas.

Nato allies have been looking at various missile-defence options for some time. Nato itself is developing protections for our deployed troops.

For so long, the mainstays of cancer treatment have been chemotherapy and radiation. They’re toxic and primitive. We need to look at it in a rational way and say, how can we help the body...

I never get to the end of mortifying sin because sin in my heart, where it’s still marauding even though it’s no longer dominant, sin in my heart is constantly expressing itself in new disorderly...

One of the aims of sexual union is procreation – the creation by reproduction of an image of itself, of the union.

Not only the entire ability to think rests on language… but language is also the crux of the misunderstanding of reason with itself.

When I’m writing, I generally toy with an idea until it manifests itself – meaning a phrase or a tune comes into my head and eventually begins to jell. When something hits me, I write...

We have been filled with grief as we have witnessed the decline of the North American Church that was once filled with missionary zeal and yet now seems determined to bury itself in a deadly...

The black community sees itself as one group, and they are all experiencing the same experiences as a group with racism and whatnot, growing up in this country.

For me, I like to have explosive moments, whether it is a particular movement itself in the whole sequence. I like to have shocking moments; for audiences to feel, like, ‘Whoa!’ It’s always been my...

Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the Infinite.

In song the same rule applies as in dramatic verse: the meaning must yield itself, or yield itself sufficiently to arouse the attention and interest, in real time.

There’s nothing universal about Indian families except that the family itself is deeply important across the country. It’s sort of the fabric and anchor of our country.

It’s very easy, if you come from a place like Pakistan, to imagine that there’s a narrative of American aggression towards the place that you come from. But that, in itself, is just a political...

Quality is decided by the depth at which the work incorporates the alternatives within itself, and so masters them.

The music and everything we’re doing on the stage and on television backs itself up. If that’s what gets people’s curiosity going or brings their attention to us, that’s fine.

I really believe that breath, in and of itself… can become the ultimate self-healing tool.

Reading the text of my blog itself is not really the interesting part. The exciting part is how the Internet allows me to be the eyes and ears for the people sending me postings from...

The desire to economize time and mental effort in arithmetical computations, and to eliminate human liability to error is probably as old as the science of arithmetic itself.

Humanity abhors, above all things, a vacuum in itself, and your class will be cut off from humanity as the surgeon cuts the cancer and alien growth from the body.

Time itself is everything and ‘nothing’.

Linux is a cancer that attaches itself in an intellectual property sense to everything it touches.

I think we’re entering a very dangerous time. The West has set itself up, decided it’s in charge, not for good intentions, not for the benefit of mankind.

No critic writing about a film could say more than the film itself, although they do their best to make us think the oppposite.

Iran is isolating itself from the rest of the world.

Most people believe, more or less, that the value of a human life is the same, irrespective of where on the planet it happens to find itself. But, of course, not every life has the...

That was a pretty fine Army that we had in 1965. By 1973, it was in tatters. It was a disgrace to the country and to itself, to its own heritage, really. So it’s, you...

America has to ask itself not what it wants, but what it can afford… The New Deal, in my mind, has become a raw deal for my children.

Sin is too stupid to see beyond itself.

There’s a lot of thinking when you choreograph something. You’re not just choreographing some bodies, arms, legs flying around to look cool. It’s a lot more complicated and sophisticated. You also have to deal with...

To be free in an age like ours, one must be in a position of authority. That in itself would be enough to make me ambitious.

The platform of an Ethical Society is itself the altar; the address must be the fire that burns thereon.

Night was running ahead of itself.

I do have a blurred memory of sitting on the stairs and trying over and over again to tie one of my shoelaces, but that is all that comes back to me of school itself.

Only a humanity to whom death has become as indifferent as its members, that has itself died, can inflict it administratively on innumerable people.

If history is going to repeat itself I should think we can expect the same thing again.

Xenophobia manifests itself especially against civilizations and cultures that are weak because they lack economic resources, means of subsistence or land. So nomadic people are the first targets of this kind of aggression.

I can imagine Iceland becoming a good place to run a controversial Web site. But… Iceland may find itself forced to defend controversial speech.
