Maggie Gallagher, American Writer
I would like to mention that I have flown the 262 first in May '43. At this time, the aircraft was completely secret. I first knew of the existence of this aircraft only early in '42 - even in my position. This aircraft didn't have any priority in design or production.
Adolf Galland, German Soldier (1912-1996)
I made a written report which is still today in existence. I have a photocopy of it, and I am saying that in production this aircraft could perhaps substitute for three propeller- driven aircraft of the best existing type. This was my impression.
Adolf Galland, German Soldier (1912-1996)

And woven into the fabric of this harsh existence was music.
Lesley Garrett, English Musician (1955-  )

I take pride in the creation of my wealth, in its existence and in the uses to which it has been and is being put.
Paul Getty, American Businessman (1932-2003)
People from major labels were afraid to go to Black Flag gigs throughout most of the band's existence. They treated our gigs as something threatening. I'm sure that it probably was. They probably had reasons to be scared.

Certain defects are necessary for the existence of individuality.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, German Poet (1749-1832)
Married life is an existence with bars around it.
Al Goldstein, American Publisher (1936-  )
Have friends. 'Tis a second existence.
Baltasar Gracian, Spanish Philosopher (1601-1658)
We have spoken of beings so low in the scale that the individuals throughout their whole existence are not sufficiently specialized to be distinctively plant or animal: yet these are definite life in simpler shape.
Asa Gray, American Scientist (1810-1888)
On embarking to return we could perceive no sign of One Tree Island; and as we swept down towards the sea the leafy top of a tree seen in the clear water under the boat was the only evidence of its existence; though a few hours ago it had formed so prominent an object.
George Grey, New Zealander Leader (1812-1898)
I suddenly saw that all the time it was not I who had been seeking God, but God who had been seeking me. I had made myself the centre of my own existence and had my back turned to God.
Bede Griffiths, British Clergyman (1906-1993)
Research challenges the materialistic understanding of death, according to which biological death represents the final end of existence and of all conscious activity.
Stanislav Grof, Czechoslovakian Psychologist (1931-  )
It is possible to see the intermediate state between lives as being in a way more important than incarnate existence.
Stanislav Grof, Czechoslovakian Psychologist (1931-  )
It is possible to spend one's entire lifetime without ever experiencing the mystical realms or even without being aware of their existence.
Stanislav Grof, Czechoslovakian Psychologist (1931-  )
At a time when unbridled greed, malignant aggression, and existence of weapons of mass destruction threatens the survival of humanity, we should seriously consider any avenue that offers some hope.
