Because Social Security is specifically designed to boost the retirement income of low earners with a progressive benefit formula, the program has played an enormous and necessary role in keeping Latinas out of poverty.
Grace Napolitano, American Politician (1936-  )
Whether you are from Minnesota, Wisconsin or any other Northern tier state, you are not going to like the reimbursement formula. The problem we face is that we wouldn't have that formula if a majority of the states didn't like it, and they have the majority of the votes.
David Obey, American Politician (1938-  )
It's not like we have a formula, but I think one of the reasons this show has survived is that it has a big heart at its center. Other cartoon shows have people crap on each other and make racist jokes. But I don't think people tune in for that. I just don't think a show lasts for 10 years without a heart.
Trey Parker, American Artist (1969-  )

Ron Paul, American Politician (1935-  )
Hollywood films have become a cesspool of formula and it's up to us to try to change it... I feel like a preacher! But it's really true. I feel personally responsible for the future of American cinema. Me personally.
Alexander Payne, American Director (1961-  )
The magic formula that successful businesses have discovered is to treat customers like guests and employees like people.

It is going to be special to drive in the Netherlands because it means I can take part in a Formula One demonstration in a country where I have a lot of family and friends.

Theodore Roosevelt, American President (1858-1919)
It's always been my formula to get the next picture set up before anyone's seen the last one.
Alan Rudolph, American Director (1943-  )
At the White House, everybody works for the same person. They're all part of the same company. But on Capitol Hill, they're all independent contractors. They all work for themselves. That's a formula for getting news.
Bob Schieffer, American Journalist (1937-  )
A definition of poetry can only determine what poetry should be and not what poetry actually was and is; otherwise the most concise formula would be: Poetry is that which at some time and some place was thus named.

In sport there is never any moment that is the same as the other. I have been in Formula One for 12 years, and out of that I had one year with the perfect car.
Michael Schumacher, German Celebrity (1969-  )
The American formula things are out there but they don't have any stories to tell - we have all the stories to tell - but they're all formula.

I haven't stuck to any formula. Most great writers stick to the same style, but I wanted to be more various.

As far as advice to potential teenage idols, there is no formula.
Bobby Sherman, American Musician (1943-  )
Jerry reversed the usual formula of the superhero who goes to another planet. He put the superhero in ordinary, familiar surroundings, instead of the other way around, as was done in most science fiction. That was the first time I can recall that it had ever been done.
Joe Shuster, Canadian Artist (1914-1992)
