I’ve concluded that genius is as common as dirt. We suppress our genius only because we haven’t yet figured out how to manage a population of educated men and women. The solution, I think, is simple and glorious. Let them manage themselves.
John Taylor Gatto
We must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent nor omniscient; that we are only 6 percent of the world`s population; that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94 percent of mankind; that we cannot right every wrong or reverse every...
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
No dictator, no invader, can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
J. Michael Straczynski
We plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state. We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. . . . We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
Black people dominate sports in the United States. 20% of the population and 90% of the final four. We own this shit. Basketball, baseball, football, golf, tennis, and as soon as they make a heated hockey rink we`ll take that shit too.
Chris Rock
I`d humbly like to become an inspiration to the biracial kids, who are the population of the new millennium. I`m everything and nothing at the same time: white, black and Latino. If I`ve managed to be accepted, the others can do it, too.
Mariah Carey
[on Detroit`s large population of people in poverty] When I come back and come back and come back I`m making a statement that this is for real. You`re about to listen, absorb and to challenge yourself to move in a positive direction. Strength, that`s what...
Bill Cosby
I was brought up in a country that relished fear-based religion, corrupt government and an entire white population living on stolen property that they murdered for and that is passed on from generation to generation.
Sean Penn
People are annoyed with the Chinese for not respecting more human rights. But with a population that size it`s very difficult to have the same attitude to human rights.
Peter Ustinov
With real estate prices sky-high, it?s hard to come and live here. It?s expensive, but a lot of (Hispanic) people know that with the rise in population, there?s a lot of opportunity to start a business, and they jump on the bandwagon.
Augustine of Hippo
When you`re bringing in a fairly unknown candidate challenging a sitting president, the population needs a lot more information than reduced coverage provides.
Walter Cronkite
When we do a gather to control populations, we remove down to the low end and allow it to build up over a period of three to four years, ... We allow them to have an increase over a period of time then take the population down to the low end of the range.
Anna de Noailles
When the Australian Government looked at how to meet the challenges, and the opportunities, presented by our ageing population, it saw that an all-encompassing approach was a prerequisite.
Julie Bishop
Whatever its other limitations, the Big Apple and those who live there make room for their dogs and cats, take good care of them and abide by the rules made necessary by a huge population.
Nick Clooney
What irked me to no end was that the German population in the area would tell us that they didn`t know what was going on in the camps, ... I don`t believe that for a minute. We knew what we were going to see. How could they not know?
Ari Naim
Well I actually do have a country house in Connecticut with a population of 3,000. Like, how small is that? I spend a lot of time there - I write up there. So I kind of have the best of both worlds and I love going up there.
Candace Bushnell
We`ve shown the world that New York can never be defeated, because of its dynamic and diverse population and because it embodies the spirit of enterprise and the love of liberty.
Michael Bloomberg
We`ve had good luck in the county with the wind farm we have right now ... By and large I think the greatest percentage of our population has been very supportive of the project.
Kent Williams
We`ve had a long wrangle with the pharmaceutical industry about parallel imports, and what we were saying is we want to make medicines and drugs as affordable as a possible to what is largely a poor population.
Andrew Beard
We`ve got an explosion of a residential population and there`s a real safety issue involved here. There is a lot of erosion and the county has been coming out there once a month and having to place gravel, but it really needs it at least twice a month.
Anne Keating
We`re focusing on evacuation and what would cause us to evacuate major portions of our population. One of the largest impacts on Davidson County would be the hopefully unlikely but catastrophic failure of the Wolf Creek Dam.
