Quotes by John W. Rogers, Jr.

Quotes by John Tiffany

I don't write as much now as I used to, but I write. The lines still come, maybe periodically, and I'll go through these little bursts of time where I write a lot of things then a long period of time where maybe I don't write anything.

Quotes by John Trudell

For us, it's a matter of just staying alive and getting the best deal we can now. Eventually, this will all straighten out. It may be two generations away or 10 generations away, but time is irrelevant in that sense. As long as we, as a people, stay alive, we will survive.

Quotes by John T. Flynn

I've written a very long piece of music recently, the 'Veil of the Temple,' which lasts about seven hours. It's really a kind of vigil. It takes place during the night, waiting for the resurrection of Christ.

Quotes by John Tavener

The only freedom which deserves the name is that of pursuing our own good, in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it.

Quotes by John T. Chambers

I wasn't always interested in technology. I had been a student for a long time - I'd earned a bachelor's degree, a law degree, and an MBA - and decided that I wanted to work in a large corporation, focusing on finance and law, in either New York or Chicago.

Quotes by John T. Chambers

I don't think many people have ever read the report. Who has read 26 volumes of this case? How many read the summary? If you read the summary, it takes a long time.

Many a trip continues long after movement in time and space have ceased.

Quotes by John Seabrook

Quotes by John Shelton Reed

Most of the well-developed world - Australia, Western Europe - they develop their resources base, they inventory it, they develop it, and they view it as a good source of jobs and revenue. We are a country that for too long has taken affordable energy for granted.

I don't know that Donald Trump really cares about what the outcome is, as long as he's in charge of it. Seeing whom he can steer in which direction and how far he can push them.

Quotes by John Schneider

Quotes by John Quelch

Product downsizing in the face of inflation in order to maintain retail price points has long been used by food companies, notably manufacturers of candy.

Quotes by John Quelch

Pepsi and Coke have to co-exist on the shelf for the long term because if they pull each other down, no one's going to drink carbonated soft drinks anymore.

Quotes by John Quelch

Quotes by John Quincy Adams

Afghanistan is going to be here a long time, and what's critical is that Afghanistan's relationship with its neighbors are, to the maximum extent they can be, constructive and operationally useful.

Quotes by John Piper

Enthusiasm and misplaced belief can take you a long way.

Quotes by John Otway

Though I have drawn my sword in the present generous struggle for the rights of men, yet I am not in arms as an American, nor am I in pursuit of riches. My fortune is liberal enough, having no wife nor family, and having lived long enough to know that riches cannot ensure happiness.

Quotes by John Paul Jones

You have to do stand-up quite a long time before you learn how to do it well.

Quotes by John Oliver

Quotes by John Ortberg

I've been fortunate enough to witness some of the biggest moments in football history mere yards away from the action, but I wanted to go out on a high rather than stay too long.

Quotes by John Mulaney

Quotes by John Nettles

Take vicars; there are often village vicars in 'Midsomer Murders', but the village vicar in England was killed off long ago.

Quotes by John Nettles

Quotes by John Milius

If you want to make an impact, you need to invest your time every bit as much as your money. And you need to stay involved for the long run. If you can't look at a five-year horizon, you shouldn't get involved.

Quotes by John Morgridge

I long had a goal of becoming president of a company. But it was not till I was 57 years old that I became president of Cisco Systems with its 34 employees. Life offers opportunity at every stage.

Quotes by John Morgridge

I took Kira to a nice dinner at a place called Moonshadows in Malibu, which is by the ocean, and I organized it so a school of young dolphins swam by our table. I took her for a long walk on the beach after dinner, and I told her all the things I love about her. Then I asked her to marry me.

Quotes by John Morrison

I live again the days and evenings of my long career. I dream at night of operas and concerts in which I have had my share of success. Now like the old Irish minstrel, I have hung up my harp because my songs are all sung.

Quotes by John McCormack

The New Labour political elite has long conspired to secure a so-called 'smooth transition' for Blair's successor. This would amount to little more than the imposition of a leader on the party and our supporters without any real democratic participation.

Quotes by John McDonnell

Quotes by John Maynard Keynes

Quotes by John McCain

The tea partiers are a great addition. The tea partiers have invigorated a base that has been dormant for a long period of time. We're going to have a broad array of different views in our Republican conference, and I think it might be more interesting than any I've been in in a long time.

Quotes by John McCain

As long as we're dependent on those fossil fuels, we're dependent on the Middle East. If we are not victims, we're certainly captives.

Quotes by John M. McHugh

It started when I moved into a vegetarian co-op back in the '70s, and that's really when I had my food consciousness awakened.

Quotes by John Linder
