The Administration’s willingness to consistently abandon the truth has done great damage. Americans are less willing to listen – less likely to trust or take anything that is said in Washington seriously.

To be truly challenging, a voyage, like a life, must rest on a firm foundation of financial unrest. If you are contemplating a voyage and you have the means, abandon the venture until your fortunes change. Only then will you know what the sea is all about...

I always try to do something really different from the last thing. After Abandon (2002), where I was this creepy girl, I just wanted to play someone happy, and then Sweet Home Alabama (2002) came along, which was perfect.
Melanie Lynskey
I would never `abandon` Broadway. I do want to expand my horizons and do more film work, but I`m interested in good roles, wherever they may be. I will always come back, even if I went to LA for a job. I refuse to acknowledge the gap between theater and f...

Am I James Todd Smith now or LL Cool J? Pick a name baby. Pick a name and ride with it. I don`t wanna abandon my identity as LL Cool J, but at the same time, I had to figure out how to let people know that I`m really serious about making these movies. You...
LL Cool J
I was young, frivolous, and full of abandon - a hippie with long hair down to my shoulders and a little goatee beard. Why? Because I thought I was gay. But no, I`m not gay.

Your actions shouldn`t change an animal`s behavior. The true test is whether you affect the animals. For instance, if your presence causes a bird to fly away, it may force the bird to abandon their young or steer clear of the area all together.
Scott Reid
You must be ready to give up everything, not only material attachments but also human attachments - father, mother, wife, children - everything that you have. But the one thing which you have to abandon unconditionally is your self.
Al Larson
We just have to be crystal clear that if we were to abandon all the reforms made over some very painful years in the Labour party, we would be consigned back to opposition.
Amr Moussa
This was the period when I used all the influence I had to get the British to abandon their export trade, and as much as possible convert all of their manufacturing facilities to the immediate needs of the war, including civilian, as well as military requ...

This head has risen above its hair in a moment of abandon known only to men who have drawn their feet out of their boots to walk awhile in the corridors of the mind.
Alan Wang
This effort to recognize is an effort to connect ourselves with the reality of our own lives. It is painful, but if we are to become human, we cannot abandon it.
Paula Fox
There is no reason to change this system. I don`t think we`ll abandon it. For us the most important thing is to be compact in the back. That`s the kind of game we have to play here and it will be very difficult to beat us.
Oliver Kahn
There are certainly times when my own everyday life seems to retreat so the life of the story can take me over. That is why a writer often needs space and time, so that he or she can abandon ordinary life and "live" with the characters.
Alyce P. Cornyn-Selby
The task which we have set ourselves is simply to show why and for what purpose we hold that standpoint during most of our lives, and why and for what purpose we are provisionally obliged to abandon it.
Alejandro Moreno
The fact is, every thinker, every philosopher, the moment he is forced to abandon his one-sided intellectual occupation by practical necessity, immediately returns to the general point of view of mankind.
Alejandro Moreno
So I ask the nuclear powers to abandon the out-of-date thinking of the Cold War period and take a fresh look. Above all, I appeal to them to bear in mind the long-term threat that nuclear weapons pose to humankind and to begin action towards their elimina...
Allan Walsh
Particularly at around the age of 70 you reach a stage where you have to be very careful. If, at that point, you abandon the work you have been doing, there is a good chance that you will just collapse and drift.
