~By Delta Burke ~
The advice would be the same for any kind of fiction. Keep writing, and keep sending things out, not to friends and relatives, but to people who have the power to buy. A lot of additional, useful tips could be added, but this is fundamental.
~By Fred Saberhagen ~
Because of recent improvements in the accuracy of theoretical predictions based on large scale ab initio quantum mechanical calculations, meaningful comparisons between theoretical and experimental findings have become possible.

~By John Nelson Darby ~
Fundamentalists are panicked by the apparent disintegration of the family, the disappearance of certainty and the decay of morality. Fear leads them to ask, if we cannot trust the Bible, what can we trust?
~By Garrett Hardin ~
They're trying to tell us that we're not right, so we have to buy their products. The number one cause of mental illness is not knowing who you are and you can't know who you are if you don't spend time honoring yourself, and living in the present.
~By Naomi Judd ~
In fact, a fundamental interdependence exists between the personal right to liberty and the personal right to property.

~By Dan Lipinski ~
Many years before I had left a beautiful country and a rich nation and I returned to that country six years later to find it fundamentally changed and in a state of upheaval, and in great spiritual and material need.
~By Fritz Sauckel ~

~By Paul Pierce ~

If I can't get a mental image from the song, I won't sing it.
~By Namie Amuro ~
Hollywood embraced me in the late '80s because there was a good project I was in and it was different. Nowadays, it's about corporate mentality, box office, youth.
~By Marlee Matlin ~

~By Nelson Piquet ~
Conception, my boy, fundamental brain work, is what makes all the difference in art.

Well, I think music for kids is never anything but experimental is it?
~By Fred Frith ~
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.
~By David Attenborough ~
It's fundamentally unfair to have so much of the tax relief go to so few. And it is a 10-year tax plan rather than one, as mine, focused on the next two years, which in my opinion is the critical time to jumpstart the economy.
~By Bob Graham ~
Fundamentalists are not friends of democracy. And that includes your fundamentalists in the United States.
~By Karen Armstrong ~
Total physical and mental inertia are highly agreeable, much more so than we allow ourselves to imagine. A beach not only permits such inertia but enforces it, thus neatly eliminating all problems of guilt. It is now the only place in our overly active world that does.
~By John Kenneth Galbraith ~
I can count on one hand the number of instrumental hits there have been over the last ten years.

~By Claude M. Bristol ~

~By Madeleine Stowe ~
If net neutrality goes away, it will fundamentally change everything about the Internet.
~By James Hilton ~

~By Agnes E. Meyer ~
I'm going to be 58, and I'm a woman. In this business, that seems to be a bigger crime than being mentally ill.

~By Franz Boas ~

~By Harry A. Blackmun ~

~By Peter Gabriel ~
The Long Island Sound is an environmentally unique estuary that needs to be protected.
~By Tim Bishop ~
You cannot achieve environmental security and human development without addressing the basic issues of health and nutrition.
~By Gro Harlem Brundtland ~
When we criticize in Iran the actions of the government, the fundamentalists say that we and the Bush Administration are in the same camp. The funny thing is that human rights activists and Mr. Bush can never be situated in the same group.
~By Shirin Ebadi ~
Mental events, it is said, are not passive happenings but the acts of a subject.
~By Hermann Ebbinghaus ~
I don't know the answer to that question. I don't think it matters to the fundamental question here because at bottom, this president believes in non-discrimination.
~By Ken Mehlman ~

~By Mickey Kaus ~
It's always better to speak the language of the team. Not only for the direct contact with everyone - sometimes it also helps you to understand the mentality of the people in the team a bit better.
~By Alain Prost ~
Bond is part of the system. He's an imperialist and a misogynist, and he laughs at killing people, and he sits there slugging martinis. It'll never be the same thing as this, because Bourne is a guy who is against the establishment, who is paranoid and on the run. I just think fundamentally they're just very different things.
~By Matt Damon ~
A great number of the disappointments and mishaps of the troubled world are the direct result of literature and the allied arts. It is our belief that no human being who devotes his life and energy to the manufacture of fantasies can be anything but fundamentally inadequate.
~By Christopher Hampton ~
I probably have fundamentally antisocial tendencies. I never took one extracurricular activity. I just failed utterly at that level. Part of me still rebels against that.
~By Maya Lin ~

~By Lech Walesa ~

~By Barry Commoner ~
Many years ago, I concluded that a few hair shirts were part of the mental wardrobe of every man. The president differs from other men in that he has a more extensive wardrobe.
~By Herbert Hoover ~
That's one strength that Stevie has. She's really not a strong instrumentalist in any way. Her instrument is her voice and her words. And it keeps her focused on the very center of that.
~By Lindsey Buckingham ~
Away with that folly that her rights would be detrimental to her character - that if she were recognized as the equal to a man she would cease to be a woman!
~By Ernestine Rose ~
I maintain that many an inventor, many a diplomat, many a financier is a sounder philosopher than all those who practice the dull craft of experimental psychology.
~By Oswald Spengler ~

~By David Boies ~
Higher education must lead the march back to the fundamentals of human relationships, to the old discovery that is ever new, that man does not live by bread alone.
~By John Hannah ~
The job of the poet is to render the world - to see it and report it without loss, without perversion. No poet ever talks about feelings. Only sentimental people do.
~By Mark Van Doren ~
I have long thought that anyone who does not regularly - or ever - gaze up and see the wonder and glory of a dark night sky filled with countless stars loses a sense of their fundamental connectedness to the universe.
~By Brian Greene ~
The fact that it wasn't tells me that we've got a much more fundamental problem of understanding what went wrong, and we've got to figure out what was there. And that's what I call fundamental fault analysis.
~By David Kay ~
Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blue print, and begin to build.

~By Frank Murkowski ~
Private property is a very fundamental and very long-term institution.
~By Anatoly Chubais ~
Just a whole different style, just a whole different way of going about an audience and a way about skating. And they are so brilliant in their own way, which is great, and that's what Brian was saying; is the styles are different, and it's the whole mentality.
~By Elvis Stojko ~
The human mind is our fundamental resource.
~By John F. Kennedy ~
It was the worst period of my life. I had all this gigantic acceptance as a kid, and all of a sudden there was this monumental rejection.
~By Tommy Rettig ~
I reflect back 35 years ago, and look how far we have come in America with our environmental policy to improve the conditions of our air and water, and we have had some real successes.
~By Jay Inslee ~
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
~By Henry David Thoreau ~
If human beings are fundamentally good, no government is necessary; if they are fundamentally bad, any government, being composed of human beings, would be bad also.
~By Fred Woodworth ~

~By Thomas R. Cech ~
The strongest predictor of unhappiness is anyone who has had a mental illness in the last 10 years. It is an even stronger predictor of unhappiness than poverty - which also ranks highly.
~By Polly Toynbee ~
I do not recollect when I had such a mental treat.
~By Abigail Fillmore ~
I think if you exercise, your state of mind - my state of mind - is usually more at ease, ready for more mental challenges. Once I get the physical stuff out of the way it always seems like I have more calmness and better self-esteem.
~By Stone Gossard ~
My tendency is to be very experimental.
~By Sean Lennon ~
I am on the board of corporations who contribute both to environmental problems and their solutions. And I am on the NGO side: the Earth Council and other organizations.
~By Maurice Strong ~
Temperamentally, Sam and I are very much alike. He's a lawyer, my father's a lawyer, and I always wanted to play one. On so many levels the role just felt right. I fell in love with it as I would a woman.
~By Rob Lowe ~
People are not fundamentally bad. It only takes the smallest of correctives to take care of that tiny minority that wants to disrupt the community.
~By Jimmy Wales ~
The Body Shop Foundation is run by our staff and supports social activism and environmental activism. We don't tend to support big agencies.
~By Anita Roddick ~

~By Sri Aurobindo ~
In the frank expression of conflicting opinions lies the greatest promise of wisdom in governmental action.
~By Louis D. Brandeis ~
You know, if you look back in the 1930s, the money went to infrastructure. The bridges, the municipal buildings, the roads, those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure. This stimulus bill has fundamentally gone, started out with a $500 rebate check, remember. That went to buy flat-screen TVs made in China.
~By Michael Bloomberg ~
It's not going to fill in the potholes. It's not going to put a roof over people's heads. What it does is it helps to address really fundamental questions of who we are, where we came from, by which I mean we can learn how life came about.
~By Steven Squyres ~
The environmental crisis is a global problem, and only global action will resolve it.
~By Barry Commoner ~
I have often said that there is no cause for feeling disturbed at being misrepresented by the press. It would be only when they began to say things detrimental to me which were true that I should feel alarm.
~By John Coolidge ~
The oath of renunciation and allegiance is a solemn vow taken by thousands of immigrants each year to become a United States citizen. The oath is the fundamental statement of allegiance to the United States, and this allegiance is what unites America.
