Quotations regarding 'Environment'

Choose a letter: 
So, these political activities will create friction in and of themselves, and in this environment of friction there'll be additional violence.
John Abizaid, American Soldier (1951-  )
Being on the run, having to change the way that you do business, being unable to plan in a safe and secure environment, always looking over your shoulder, knowing that some day somebody's going to knock on your door and it's going to be your last.
John Abizaid, American Soldier (1951-  )
We worked on solving the problem of voice communications in a noisy military environment. We established military codes that are highly audible and invented selection tests for personnel who had a superior ability to recognize sound in a noisy background.
M. H. Abrams, Critic (1912-  )
It is horrifying that we have to fight our own government to save the environment.
Ansel Adams, American Photographer (1902-1984)
I am in the process of starting a nonprofit organization that gives rescued animals a home in a simulated wild environment and, for those who have been tested on, who are disabled, aggressive, etc., their own space to live out their days.
Casey Affleck, American Actor (1975-  )
Complexity is one of the great problems in environmental design.
Christopher Alexander, American Architect (1936-  )
I think my perception of my own life is different and the fact that Lauren and myself are together. I've never felt this free or happy and so that permeates onto my onstage persona and to my working environment.
Rick Allen, Musician (1963-  )
You cannot escape the results of your thoughts. Whatever your present environment may be, you will fall, remain or rise with your thoughts, your vision, your ideal. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration.
James Lane Allen, American Author (1849-1925)
But my point is that you design something in the end that precludes any unhealthy trading practices that are not going to serve your environmental or your economic objectives but now is not the time to do it.
John Anderson, -
It is one of the issues that will have to be worked through however let me make the point and I think anyone would accept that if you set it up properly, not only will you get better environmental outcomes, you have a chance to create more wealth with the available resource.
John Anderson, -
All of my work is based on nature. I grew up in a rural environment and living in the Bay Area allows for immediate access to wonderful natural environs. Basically nature is my Genus Loci, or the place where my spirit resides.
Judith Anderson, Australian Actress (1897-1992)
It is futile for an artist to try to create an environment because you have an environment around you all the time. Any living organism has an environment.
Carl Andre, American Artist (1935-  )
A place is an area within an environment that has been altered in such a way to make the general environment more conspicuous.
Carl Andre, American Artist (1935-  )
I think that's created a healthy environment. The comparisons to 'ER' were maddening and there was this assumption that the two of us were looking at each other with rage and resentment, which was also not the case.
Adam Arkin, American Actor (1956-  )
To confront those fears, in a controlled environment, where there's 300 people around you going through the same thing, it's this weird sort of yin and yang.
Adam Arkin, American Actor (1956-  )
I believe we can and should have it all. Lower deficits but higher spending. More peace with a bigger military that goes off and kills terrorists and whatnot. A cleaner environment without forcing SUVs off the road.
Craig Armstrong, -
All the writers and producers around us that gave us the environment where we could play. They were able to provide us with a place where we could take chances to play with things, go against the grain and do things that people don't always do.
Matthew Ashford, American Actor (1960-  )
You can only get really unpopular decisions through if the electorate is convinced of the value of the environment. That's what natural history programmes should be for.
David Attenborough, British Journalist (1926-  )
The only way to save a rhinoceros is to save the environment in which it lives, because there's a mutual dependency between it and millions of other species of both animals and plants.
David Attenborough, British Journalist (1926-  )
All we can hope for is that the thing is going to slowly and imperceptibly shift. All I can say is that 50 years ago there were no such thing as environmental policies.
David Attenborough, British Journalist (1926-  )
