The pursuit of peace and progress cannot end in a few years in either victory or defeat. The pursuit of peace and progress, with its trials and its errors, its successes and its setbacks, can never be relaxed and never abandoned.

Until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned, everywhere is war and until there are no longer first-class and second-class citizens of any nation, until the color of a man`s s...

Heroes know that things must happen when it is time for them to happen. A quest may not simply be abandoned; unicorns may go unrescued for a long time, but not forever; a happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story.
Peter S. Beagle
The consequences are that you fear and dread being abandoned. You get a little tougher, and it`s more difficult for you to become intimate. The pros are that you can adapt to any situation and that you`re open to new surroundings. A lot of people get stuc...
Naomi Watts
(on researching his role as Plainview in There Will Be Blood (2007)) I read a lot of correspondence dating from that period. Decent middle-class lives with wives and children were abandoned to pursue this elusive possibility. They were bank clerks and shi...
Daniel Day-Lewis
[when asked why he abandoned his Lonesome Luke character and that type of character] Charlie [Charles Chaplin] had the market cornered on that. He had it down to a science.
Harold Lloyd
With it adult political audiences abandoned cinemas. In their place appeared a void. That previous political audience migrated to the seats in front of their TV.
Andrzej Wajda
Well, we found a bunch of abandoned buildings and we are actually going to go ahead and try to retrieve some of these Ak-47s assault rifles that they have been using to shoot at helicopters and some of the people trying to get back into the city to get it...
Ant West
We were staying in an abandoned hotel with no water, no lights, no food and kids, ... There were all kinds of dead stuff floating in the water. The water was black, stinking and greasy.
Michael Morgan
We have increased conservation spending, enacted legislation that enables us to clean up and redevelop abandoned brownfields sites across the country, and implemented new clean water standards that will protect us from arsenic.
Andrej Meszaros
We don`t want to judge mothers and we don`t want to know the reasons for them abandoning the babies. We would rather have this than have a baby being abandoned in a rubbish dump.
Arthur Reingold
Until 1914 I loved to travel; I often went to Italy and once spent a few months in India. Since then I have almost entirely abandoned travelling, and I have not been outside of Switzerland for over ten years.
Alexandra Starr
To die is as if one`s eyes had been put out and one cannot see anything any more. Perhaps it is like being shut in a cellar. One is abandoned by all. They have slammed the door and are gone. One does not see anything and notices only the damp smell of put...
Albert Ho
The sigh of History rises over ruins, not over landscapes, and in the Antilles there are few ruins to sigh over, apart from the ruins of sugar estates and abandoned forts.
Alan Thompson
The hurt is the same, but here the people are gone, ... In New York, you could see the hurt on the people`s faces. Here, there are no faces. It`s abandoned. Compared to Sept. 11, the scale is huge. Just the smell of it, the damage that the water does, it`...
Kevin Taylor
The fear of Hell, or aiming to be blest, Savors too much of private interest. This moved not Moses, nor the zealous Paul, Who for their friends abandoned soul and all.
Albert Gray
That policy was abandoned very quickly, and the military police were tagged with the responsibility of conducting training, which they did. We were not equipped or set up with personnel to recruit new Iraqi guards.
Ali Allawi
Satan cannot win. Why not? Because he has denied God`s sovereignty and disobeyed God`s law. But Moses was told explicitly, God`s blessings come only from obedience. Satan will not win because he has abandoned God`s tool of dominion, biblical law.
Alex Hume
People came in here without anything. They were tired and hungry and angry, convinced they had been abandoned by America, ... But this city and its people stood up to help. I`ve had literally thousands of volunteers show up, ready to help, ready to work.
David Moore
It’s just overwhelming, ... There are countless thousands of abandoned pets in the city. And hundreds and hundreds are stuck inside their homes.
Ashlee Kidd
