Quotations regarding 'Force'

Choose a letter: 
It's what the Iraqi people are going through right now. They have encountered a victorious, hostile force-but, you know, there they still are. There their culture is, there their history is, they're not going anywhere.
Michael Nesmith, American Musician (1942-  )
When you're rich and famous you are the dominant force in a relationship, even if you try hard not to be. I've talked of sacrificing everything for Fleetwood Mac, but I realize now that it is simply the only thing I've ever wanted to do.
Stevie Nicks, American Musician (1948-  )
The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company, you own your career!
Earl Nightingale, American Entertainer (1921-1989)
Watergate had become the center of the media's universe, and during the remaining year of my presidency the media tried to force everything else to revolve around it.
Richard M. Nixon, American President (1913-1994)
Useless knowledge can be made directly contributory to a force of sound and disinterested public opinion.
Albert J. Nock, American Philosopher (1870-1945)
There's an unseen force which lets birds know when you've just washed your car.
Denis Norden, English Writer (1922-  )
Four or five frigates will do the business without any military force.
Lord North, British Statesman (1732-1792)
My dad served in the Air Force as ground crew for several years, and doesn't really talk about it. I know that it's there. I think my main thing about direct or indirect experiences as near to home as it were is the idea of self-sacrifice really.
Jeremy Northam, English Actor (1961-  )
Speaker Newt Gingrich has appointed a task force, which I'm on, and over the next couple months the task force is going to try to come up with legislation that does what we're all trying to do. I feel pretty good about the members that are on the task force.
Charlie Norwood, American Politician (1941-2007)
If at the end of May we don't, we'll reform, regroup, decide how we're going to go about it, but if the task force can't come up with the bill, I'm going to push mine, and go ahead and make the changes in it that we've been working on now for a year or two and just go for it.
Charlie Norwood, American Politician (1941-2007)
After the war, in which I served as a pilot in the Air Force, I took up films.
Ivor Novello, Welsh Musician (1893-1951)
I have an idealistic view of science as a liberalising and progressive force for humanity.
Paul Nurse, British Scientist (1949-  )
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
Barack Obama, American President (1961-  )
Unfortunately, the true force which propels our endless political disputes, our constant struggles for political advantage, is often not our burning concern for democracy, it is often of our dedication to the principle of the rule of law.
Olusegun Obasanjo, Nigerian Statesman (1937-  )
This creature of the poem may assemble itself into a being with its own centrifugal force.
Sharon Olds, American Poet (1942-  )
The increase of territory and power of empires by force of arms has been the policy of all great powers, and it has always been possible to get the approval of their state religion.
John Boyd Orr, Scottish Politician (1880-1971)
Never fear: Thank Home, and Poetry, and the Force behind both.
Wilfred Owen, English Soldier (1893-1918)
A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.
Frank Oz, American Actor (1944-  )
America's finest - our men and women in uniform, are a force for good throughout the world, and that is nothing to apologize for.
Sarah Palin, American Politician (1964-  )
Actually John, Paul Rutherford, and Trevor Watts, and several other rather well known English jazz musicians had got their training by joining the Air Force, which was a pretty standard way for people to get some kind of musical education in those days.
Evan Parker, British Musician (1944-  )
