There is no justifiable prediction about how the hypothesis will hold up in the future; its degree of corroboration simply is a historical statement describing how severely the hypothesis has been tested in the past.

Quotes by Robert Nozick

What hadn't been realized in the literature until now is that merely to describe how severely something has been tested in the past itself embodies inductive assumptions, even as a statement about the past.

Quotes by Robert Nozick

First and foremost, I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to the family of Michael Brown. As I have said in the past, I know that, regardless of the circumstances here, they lost a loved one to violence. I know the pain that accompanies such a loss knows no bounds.

Quotes by Robert P. McCulloch

I've been doing this 17 years but I can tell you I have more websites now than I have ever had devoted to me or my past career or my character. When I got this show, I think I had two fans out there that had created websites on my behalf.

Quotes by Robert Patrick

I don't think American poetry has gotten any better in the past 35 years. Oddly enough, creative writing programs seem to have been good for fiction, and I would not have predicted that.

Quotes by Robert Morgan

After I became a citizen, I felt freer to say what I thought about this country, both negative and positive. I think I had been, consciously and subconsciously, biting my tongue in the past.

Quotes by Robert MacNeil

Hopefully as a country, that we learn from our mistakes of the past.

Quotes by Robert Matsui

I have to say that it's very few countries that are willing to look back at its past and apologize for its act, or make amends for its act, as the United States had one.

Quotes by Robert Matsui

I always thought I was more of a mommy's boy, because she was charming, talkative, a great storyteller. But as I dug back into my past, I realized I am exactly like my father on so many levels, although I never thought I inherited anything from him.

Quotes by Robert Lepage

There have been many races in the past that I have won and not been happy, and other times when I finished maybe eighth but was really happy with my driving.

Quotes by Robert Kubica

The past relationship with Simpson no longer exists, and my views on that subject have already been expressed.

Quotes by Robert Kardashian

Who wants their life and everything they have done for the past 25 years dragged in front of the American public?

Quotes by Robert Kardashian

Most of what we know about human life we know from asking people to remember the past, and as we know, hindsight is anything but 20/20. We forget vast amounts of what happens to us in life, and sometimes memory is downright creative.

Quotes by Robert J. Waldinger

One gains a double benefit in writing about the past, conjuring up how things might have been, and at the same time acquiring a different perspective on the present.

Quotes by Robert Harris

Know what the old masters did. Know how they composed their pictures, but do not fall into the conventions they established. These conventions were right for them, and they are wonderful. They made their language. You make yours. All the past can help you.

Quotes by Robert Henri

If the only new thing we have to offer is an improved version of the past, then today can only be inferior to yesterday. Hypnotized by images of the past, we risk losing all capacity for creative change.

Quotes by Robert Hewison

When your future arrives, will you blame your past?

Quotes by Robert Half

I do not believe anything comes by chance. I regard the present as the necessary child of a necessary past.

Quotes by Robert Green Ingersoll

When you’re on tour. there’s a contract between you and the audience: do what you want, as long as you do what we want. You’re having to play with the past at every gig.

Quotes by Robert Del Naja

We resurrect 'Mezzanine' with a promise that we can break free from the data of the past and escape the feedback loops.

Quotes by Robert Del Naja

After voluntary exertions on the part of our people to which the history of the world furnishes no parallel, is the old root of bitterness still to remain in the ground, to sprout and bear fruit in the future as it has borne fruit in the past?

Quotes by Robert Dale Owen

But how carve way i' the life that lies before, If bent on groaning ever for the past?

Quotes by Robert Browning

What are they going to do to me that they haven't done already? They took away my entire past. They took away my entire future. What's left for them to take?

Quotes by Robert Blake

Our greatest responsibility is not to be pencils of the past.

Quotes by Robert A. M. Stern

My dad? He died when I was 19, which is a bad time for your dad to die, because there's an awful lot of things you have to resolve with your parents past your teens if you've been a difficult teenager.

Quotes by Robbie Coltrane

Rebecca Black might sing like a robot, but that's just proof she has evolved beyond us. Her vocal is just a slightly exaggerated version of the robot glitch-twitch stutter that's been mainstream pop vocalese for the past 10 years or so.

Quotes by Rob Sheffield

This past year has been very turbulent for the Middle East, and my conversation with Prime Minister Netanyahu strengthened my belief that we need to remain vigilant in our support of our critical ally.

Quotes by Rob Portman

The way skateboarding contests were in the past was like going to a basketball game and being told at the end of the game what the score was and who won. Think about how unengaging that would be if you didn't know who was ahead or if it was a close game.

Quotes by Rob Dyrdek

I'm only human. I can't change the past.

Quotes by Rob Ford

I have helped shape in the past the Democratic Party's agenda on innovation.

Quotes by Ro Khanna

The criticism of the Democrats in the past is that they were too timid. They ran on consultant-driven platitudes and didn't offer a compelling enough vision.

Quotes by Ro Khanna

I believe there are ways of cutting past some of the ideological logjams in Washington when it comes to issues of American economic competitiveness and a pro-growth agenda.

Quotes by Ro Khanna

In all of my films, there is a desire to testify, to interrogate the past.

Quotes by Rithy Panh

The Khmer Rouge tried to delete everything. They tried to erase our past, our personality, our land, our sentiment. What we tried to do in 'The Missing Picture' was to reconstruct our identity, to bring it back to the people through cinema.

Quotes by Rithy Panh

I don't want to take the escalators. Give me the stairs that have the dips and the two old ladies that are blocking it and they've got an attitude, and they don't want you to go past them.

Quotes by RJ Cyler

You ain't gonna know about me by talking about the past. Haters care about that. My fans, they care about where I'm going.

Quotes by Riff Raff

The Bible tells us that Jesus Christ came to do three things. He came to have my past forgiven, you get a purpose for living and a home in Heaven.

Quotes by Rick Warren

For the past several years, the Meth Caucus has worked to engage the Office of National Drug Control Policy on this issue. We have tried to get their attention that meth requires a strong, comprehensive Federal policy.

Quotes by Rick Larsen

Racial rhetoric has been entwined with government from the start, all the way back to when the enemy was not Obamacare but the Grand Army of the Republic (and further in the past than that: Thomas Jefferson, after all, was derided as 'the Negro President').

Quotes by Rick Perlstein

While writing books about the past, I think about the present. It's not intentional, but somehow my books end up being written under the sign of a political mood.

Quotes by Rick Perlstein

For a movement supposedly devoted to conserving the past, conservatives are oh-so-splendid at forgetting their own past.

Quotes by Rick Perlstein

In the nineties I was doing those Blues Bureau records, but over the past two years, I have really gone back to my Christian roots and have been born again.

Quotes by Rick Derringer

All of us, whether guilty or not, whether old or young, must accept the past. It is not a case of coming to terms with the past. That is not possible. It cannot be subsequently modified or undone.

Quotes by Richard von Weizsaecker

Cheyenne Autumn was received not too successfully. I still think it was a very good movie. It was kinda Ford's apology for the way he had treated Indians in his past pictures.

Quotes by Richard Widmark

In the past we couldn't talk to non-union workers. Now we can at least talk to non-union workers so we'll be mobilizing them and educating them not for just six or eight months before an election, but we'll be doing it year-round.

Quotes by Richard Trumka

Living in the past is a Jethro Tull album, not a smart poker strategy.

Quotes by Richard Roeper

Architecture is measured against the past; you build in the future, and you try to imagine the future.

Quotes by Richard Rogers

I think that a good Left is a party that always thinks about the future and doesn't care much about our past sins.

Quotes by Richard Rorty

I keep a quotes journal - of every sentence that I've wanted to remember from my reading of the past 30 years.

Quotes by Richard Powers

The philosophical question before us is, when we make an observation of our track in the past, does the result of our observation become real in the same sense that the final state would be defined if an outside observer were to make the observation?

Quotes by Richard P. Feynman

I think the Republican Party has moved substantially to the right, particularly on social issues... And the Democratic Party has moved to the left over the past decades. So we've got a lot more room in the middle.

Quotes by Richard Painter

It is in the interest of Americans to find out what those wanting to be president think about a wide range of challenges and what they might do about them. We should want to get their take on the wisdom of past decisions, what they agree and disagree with, and why.

Quotes by Richard N. Haass

In the past, there has always been so much pressure about carrying a show and promoting a record.

Quotes by Richard Marx

Our kids are actually doing what we told them to do when they sit in front of that TV all day or in front of that computer game all day. The society is telling kids unconsciously that nature's in the past. It really doesn't count anymore, that the future is in electronics, and besides, the bogeyman is in the woods.

Quotes by Richard Louv

We are telling our kids that nature is in the past and it probably doesn't count anymore, the future is in electronics, the boogeyman is in the woods, and playing outdoors is probably illicit and possibly illegal.

Quotes by Richard Louv

Cinema has only been around for about 100 years. Has all of the world's violence towards women taken place only within the past 100 years?

Quotes by Richard King

This sunlight linked me through the ages to that past consciousness.

Quotes by Richard Jefferies

To the soul, there is no past and no future; all is, and will be ever, in now. For artificial purposes time is mutually agreed on, but there is really no such thing.

Quotes by Richard Jefferies

It used to be that artists thought of nature as their environment. Now media is our environment. It has been for the past 50, 70 years. It's what you see on TV, on the computer, what is in the magazines and newspapers.

Quotes by Richard Hell

I think history is continuous. It doesn't begin or end on Pearl Harbor Day or the day Lyndon Johnson withdraws from the presidency or on 9/11. You have to learn from the past but not be imprisoned by it. You need to take counsel of history but never be imprisoned by it.

Quotes by Richard Holbrooke

When someone has a strong intuitive connection, Buddhism suggests that it's because of karma, some past connection.

Quotes by Richard Gere

I do think the past changes at a slower rate. It sits a little more still for its portrait.

Quotes by Richard Greenberg

In the past, liberals have competed to see who could shout the loudest to shut down the banks, ridicule success, and penalize anyone working in finance. In fact, the Occupy Wall Street movement was an aggressive liberal effort to shut down Wall Street banks.

Quotes by Richard Grenell

What is needed to pass gay marriage is not a Democratic majority - this past year has proven that to be true - but politicians and judges comfortable enough to ignore what the majority of the voters want and do what is uncomfortable, unpopular - and morally right.

Quotes by Richard Grenell

Every time I've talked about my family in the past, people have ended up getting upset. So I said to my friends and family: 'I shan't refer to you at all, and there's nothing for you to get upset about. There's the deal.'

Quotes by Richard Griffiths

I trained as an artist originally, so I know what a nice human body looks like, and I would like to look like that notion, and of course I never will. But I've got past that.

Quotes by Richard Griffiths

Turkey wants to see Bashar al-Assad go and wants to kind of expand its sphere of influence into Turkey so its Ottoman glory or Ottoman past are once again project into the Syrian provinces. That's kind of what Turkey's vision is.

Quotes by Richard Engel

The art of living your life has a lot to do with getting over loss. The less the past haunts you, the better.

Quotes by Richard Ford

If I could have married my wife and been a sports writer for the past 30 years, I wouldn't be sitting here - but I don't think I'd be sitting someplace where I was sorry to be sitting.

Quotes by Richard Ford

So much Western storytelling comes from Scandinavia. I've read that in the past, storytellers would travel to Iceland and exchange stories. It's kind of the birthplace of great storytelling.

Quotes by Richard Dormer

Kerry is an adult - he thinks things through. He learns from the present as well as the past. To George Bush, thinking things through is for sissies.

Quotes by Richard Dreyfuss

Now, past middle age, with so many books written I still care about and only a few still in print, I know the feeling of being overlooked.

Quotes by Richard Elman

So it allows me to travel, I'll be doing that and running these great rivers and doing what I've done in the past without much purpose other than for the experience.

Quotes by Richard Dean Anderson

In my several visits to Germany, I have written in admiration of that country's strenuous efforts to face its past and make amends.

Quotes by Richard Cohen

I agree that sometimes Michelle Obama can come across as angry - and anger is discomforting. We venerate that empty word, closure, wanting to seal off the pain of the past and refusing it admittance to the chirpy present. This, of course, is nonsense.

Quotes by Richard Cohen

I'm not the first Christian to have a fruity past. I hesitate to compare myself to St Augustine or St Paul, but there is a precedent for this sort of thing.

Quotes by Rich Lowry

Never mind a world that can't see past brutality.

Quotes by Ric Ocasek

Quotes by Rex Tillerson

What's really interesting to me is to have a connection to what was going on in the past, but to make it a living thing.

Quotes by Rhiannon Giddens

The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest minds of past centuries.

Quotes by Rene Descartes

I couldn't tell you what was my last performance before I was incarcerated. I couldn't tell you what last meal I had, or anything of those things because I didn't think about it; it wasn't important to me. I think about it now. I can tell you everything I ate for the past week. I think that alone makes me a better person.

Quotes by Remy Ma

With light field technology, there is a huge opportunity for creativity in photography that hasn't been available in the past.

Quotes by Ren Ng

The last four years under President Obama have been trying and troubling for this entire country. The tired big government policies of the past have failed us. We can't afford more disappointments. We need a new direction. We need a new president.

Quotes by Reince Priebus

In hindsight, I slid into arrogance based upon past success.

Quotes by Reed Hastings

Too often, bridal shows are boring - I love including a small, unexpected element to make it interesting, like the removable skirts and umbrellas in seasons past.

Quotes by Reem Acra

Quotes by Reece Thompson

To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.

Quotes by Red Auerbach

I've tried in the past to blog about ghostwriting and have failed. I have a lot of opinions on the whole issue, and I'm constantly censoring myself to make sure I don't just sound like a bitter writer.

Quotes by Rebecca Serle

I feel often that we don't have the right language to talk about emotions in disasters. Everyone is on edge, of course, but it also pulls people away from a lot of trivial anxieties and past and future concerns and gratuitous preoccupations that we have, and refocuses us in a very intense way.

Quotes by Rebecca Solnit

In the past, missionaries have traveled to far countries with the message of the gospel - with great hardship and often with the loss of life. In contrast, we can reach millions instantly from the comfort of our homes by merely hitting the 'send' button on our computers, or with iPads, or phones.

Quotes by Ray Comfort

I suppose I've been selfish in the past and put my career first. But priorities change.

Quotes by Ray Fearon

While a lot of management development books try to teach you a lesson or give you a scenario of what corporate culture and work practices are about, they're theoretical and written in a sermonizing way. Most people don't get past the first chapter, and they just look nice on the bookshelf.

Quotes by Ravi Subramanian

Without libraries what have we? We have no past and no future.

Ray Bradbury

What is the obsession with not repeating clothes or making appearances that have been similar to the one's we've made in the past? Why is the fashion police so intense? What do they expect from us? What kind of pressure is this?
