‐‐ Rick Atkinson
Almost everything else I have done during my adult years has been affected to some extent by my name - by my father's position, if you will.

‐‐ John Eisenhower
Almost everything I do is related to being fat.
‐‐ Camryn Manheim

Almost half of the population of the world lives in rural regions and mostly in a state of poverty. Such inequalities in human development have been one of the primary reasons for unrest and, in some parts of the world, even violence.
‐‐ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
Almost half our representatives in Washington apparently know more about science than our scientists. Or they pretend to, because big corporations give them a lot of money to make sure they can keep doing the destructive things that they do.
‐‐ Jimmy Kimmel
Almost immediately, I remember right when Tikrit even fell, a few days after Baghdad fell, there was talks of insurgency, there was talks of jihad and of resisting the American occupiers, and slowly this turned into an organized movement.

‐‐ Damon Galgut
