A four percent growth strategy means you fix a convoluted tax code. You get in and you change every aspect of regulations that are job killers. You get rid of Obamacare and replace it with something that doesn't suppress wages and kill jobs.

A fox should not be on the jury at a goose's trial.

A fragmented film such as 'Babel' gives the impression of 'edginess' but, in its form, tells us nothing we didn't already know.

A fragrance that matches the personality of the man or woman who wears it is an integral part of the memory that you have of him or her. It goes without saying that it's a formidable weapon of seduction.
‐‐ Dree Hemingway
A franchise is dictated on the success of doing one film right, so if you can get it done correctly, you've got a chance of something else, but sometimes it just doesn't work that way. Ideally, it's insurance for the future; if you can do something, if you can find a character that people really do like, then you're very lucky.

A free and democratic Arab world aligns with America's security interests.

A free and open Internet should not have to be weighed down by legal challenges - its dynamism is essential to our economy.

A free and prosperous Iraq will be a major blow to the terrorists and their desire to establish a safe haven in Iraq where they can plan and plot attacks.
‐‐ Scott McClellan
A free and rooted society ought to consist of a web of moral obligations. We have the right to ignore them, but we ought to be actually obliged not to let other people starve or to let them lapse into destitution.
‐‐ Pankaj Mishra
A free and stable Iraq will be a shining light against the shadow of Islamic extremism.
‐‐ Jim DeMint

A free culture has been our past, but it will only be our future if we change the path we are on right now.
‐‐ Lawrence Lessig
A free culture is not a culture without property; it is not a culture in which artists don't get paid.
‐‐ Lawrence Lessig
A free economy and strong communities honor the dignity of every person, rewarding effort with justice, promoting upward mobility, and building solidarity among citizens.
‐‐ Paul Ryan
A free economy is as essential to society as democratic political institutions. A strong market-based economy is the fertile ground for democratic freedoms that we think are important.
‐‐ Lee R. Raymond
A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.
‐‐ Epicurus
A free Net may depend on some wisely developed and implemented locks and a community ethos that secures the keys to those locks among groups with shared norms and a sense of public purpose rather than in the hands of one gatekeeper.
‐‐ Jonathan Zittrain
A free people, free to believe as we wish, free to speak our minds, free to raise our children as we see fit, will, make no mistake about it, endure.
‐‐ Nick Rahall
A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.
‐‐ Albert Camus
A free press is the cornerstone of democracy; there is no question about that.

A free society will abide unofficial, private discrimination, even when that means allowing hate-filled groups to exclude people based on the color of their skin.
‐‐ Rand Paul
A free spirit takes liberties even with liberty itself.
‐‐ Francis Picabia
A freewheeling mind can conceive a virtually infinite number of sequences, but just how that mind picks out and stores those that may perhaps be used later to deal with a given tension, a given situation, is far beyond my understanding.
‐‐ Patrick O'Brian
A French Republican is a Republican who beats up on conservatives and is constantly praising the Democrats and contributing to the massive spending in this country while they go home and pretend otherwise.
‐‐ Mark Levin
A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else.
‐‐ Charles Baudelaire
A fresh mind keeps the body fresh. Take in the ideas of the day, drain off those of yesterday. As to the morrow, time enough to consider it when it becomes today.

A fresh pair of eyes can often find problems.

A freshman has only about 25% of his degree completed. They go off to play professional basketball, and to assume they will come back and get the degree done five, six, seven years later, I don't see that happening.
‐‐ Steve Alford
A friend and I started a band together. I am kind of learning how to play instruments. We write stuff over Skype or e-mail. I send one part and he writes another.
‐‐ Reece Thompson
A friend and I were talking about how I don't like carnival rides that make me dizzy. I looked up from the conversation and thought, 'Dizzy - that sounds like a great title for a song.' The next day, I went into the studio with some co-writers, and we wrote that song.
‐‐ Tyler Shaw
A friend at school was always being laughed at because his father emptied dustbins for a living. But those who laughed worshipped famous footballers. This is an example of our topsy-turvy view of 'success.' Who would we miss most if they did not work for a month, the footballer or the garbage collector?
‐‐ David Icke
A friend bought me a plane ticket to Hawaii, which is where I got discovered and became an actor, so I guess a friend bought me a winning lottery ticket.

A friend forced me to watch 'The Lord of the Rings,' and even though it was a fantastic movie, I could only watch one.
‐‐ Sibel Kekilli
A friend gave me a CD of the 'Pathetique' Symphony as a Christmas present. I went home, and I put on the CD expecting to listen to Tchaikovsky. But it started 'ta ta ta taaa.' It was too long for me. I didn't understand it at first, but then I fell in love, in love, in love.
‐‐ Gustavo Dudamel
A friend got me a job on the door of the Camden Palace nightclub, which quickly progressed to running the place.
‐‐ Sam Taylor-Johnson
A friend hipped me to hypoglycemia, which an article I read calls 'a disease for a nation of sugar junkies.' Who knows how many people in this country have it?
