Quotations regarding 'Nation'
In all, we investigated, I think, close to 50 rumors about offers to kill Dr. King around the country. But we found no evidence to support rumors of FBI involvement in the assassination.
Louis Stokes, American Politician (1925- )
Firstly, we have personnel records of persons we hired, persons we fired, reasons we fired them and so forth. These records have nothing to do with the assassination of the president and, therefore, ought to remain in the files.
Louis Stokes, American Politician (1925- )
Our findings with reference to organized crime was that organized crime as an entity didn't participate in the assassination of the president. However, we were unable to preclude the possibility of individual members of organized crime having participated.
Louis Stokes, American Politician (1925- )
Skill without imagination is craftsmanship and gives us many useful objects such as wickerwork picnic baskets. Imagination without skill gives us modern art.
Tom Stoppard, English Dramatist (1937- )
I believe in imagination. I did Kramer vs. Kramer before I had children. But the mother I would be was already inside me.
Meryl Streep, American Actress (1949- )
How I wish we lived in a time when laws were not necessary to safeguard us from discrimination.
Barbra Streisand, American Actress (1942- )
No change in the balance of political parties can alter the general determination that no class should be excluded from contributing to and sharing responsibility for the state.
Gustav Stresemann, German Politician (1878-1929)
The concept of active cooperation has taken the place of opposition to the new form of government and of dreamy resignation entranced with the beauty of times past.
Gustav Stresemann, German Politician (1878-1929)
It's a great mistake, I think, to put children off with falsehoods and nonsense, when their growing powers of observation and discrimination excite in them a desire to know about things.
Anne Sullivan, American Educator (1866-1936)
To them though, not to us, we were just a catalyst for their imagination.
Donald Sutherland, Canadian Actor (1935- )
The openness of rural Nebraska certainly influenced me. That openness, in a way, fosters the imagination. But growing up, Lincoln wasn't a small town. It was a college town. It had record stores and was a liberal place.
Matthew Sweet, American Musician (1964- )
All the best have something in common, a regard for reality, an agreement to its primacy over the imagination.
Wislawa Szymborska, Polish Poet (1923- )
This will be Iraq for all without discrimination among Iraqi citizens, or ethnic or sectarian discrimination.
Jalal Talabani, Iraqi Politician (1933- )
Racial discrimination, South Africa's economic power, its oppression and exploitation of all the black peoples, are part and parcel of the same thing.
Oliver Tambo, South African Politician (1917-1993)
I would find myself laughing and wondering where these ideas came from. You can call it imagination, I suppose. But I was grateful for wherever they came from.
Amy Tan, American Novelist (1952- )
Imagination is the only key to the future. Without it none exists - with it all things are possible.
Ida Tarbell, American Journalist (1857-1944)
Personality is more important than beauty, but imagination is more important than both of them.
Laurette Taylor, -
Another cause for the increase in alienation and cynicism is a feeling that too many policy decisions that affect individuals have been taken out of any system that has accountability or that they can influence.
Robert Teeter, American Politician
Any discrimination, like sharp turns in a road, becomes critical because of the tremendous speed at which we are traveling into the high-tech world of a service economy.
Clarence Thomas, American Judge (1948- )
The conscious process is reflected in the imagination; the unconscious process is expressed as karma, the generation of actions divorced from thinking and alienated from feeling.
William Irwin Thompson, American Philosopher (1938- )
