Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen.
‐‐ Anaxagoras
Appearances are not truth. But every politician knows that his or her image, as well as his or her actions, can make the difference between failure and success.
‐‐ Mimi Kennedy
Appearances are often deceiving.
‐‐ Aesop
Appearing in 'Legally Blonde' has helped me find my inner girl, although at the beginning the director was constantly telling me off for sitting like a boy, with my legs apart, while wearing a cocktail dress and heels!
‐‐ Sheridan Smith
Appeasement was never a very clever policy, and it should not be our option today.
‐‐ Jose Maria Aznar
Appetite as it relates to the human being, the person. How do you find appetite for what you do? How do you relate to appetite? How do you get appetite, not only for a meal but also to do the work you do?
‐‐ Rene Redzepi
Appetite, craving for food, is a constant and powerful stimulator of the gastric glands.
‐‐ Ivan Pavlov
'Appetite for Destruction' was the only thing written with lyrics and melody fitting the guitar parts at the same time. After that, I got a barrage of guitar songs that I was supposed to put words to, and I don't know if that was the best thing for Guns.
‐‐ Axl Rose
Appetite is essentially insatiable, and where it operates as a criterion of both action and enjoyment (that is, everywhere in the Western world since the sixteenth century) it will infallibly discover congenial agencies (mechanical and political) of expression.
‐‐ Marshall McLuhan
Applause felt like approval, and it became a drug that soothed the pain, but only temporarily.
‐‐ Anita Baker
Applause is a receipt, not a bill.
‐‐ Dale Carnegie
Applause is interesting, but I'm a monster with or without it. Something is either well written or it isn't. 'White Rabbit' is not well written, and no amount of applause or royalties can convince me it is. I could have done a better job with those lyrics. They didn't say what I wanted.
‐‐ Grace Slick
Applause is the most powerful thing... people talk about the sound of it, but what I hear is glee.
‐‐ C. C. H. Pounder
Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones.
‐‐ Edmund Burke
Applause, it's very nice, of course. But when you're giving, and creating, and then there is the silence of everyone sitting there, listening, waiting, that is great.
‐‐ Anna Netrebko
Applause should be an emotional response to the music, rather than a regulated social duty.
‐‐ Emanuel Ax
Applause that comes thundering with such force you might think the audience merely suffers the music as an excuse for its ovations.
‐‐ Alfred Jarry
Applause waits on success.
‐‐ Benjamin Franklin
Apple already had everyone's billing information from iTunes... you could buy things just by typing in your password... That, for the first time, brought very, very easy payment to the modern software world. That, more than anything, is why there is a business for paid apps.
‐‐ Marco Arment
Apple and Samsung are selling in such high volumes, and they're vertically integrated more and more, that it's very, very hard for anyone to compete against Apple and Samsung in the high-volume part of the smartphone or tablet market.
‐‐ John Sculley
Apple, at its best, isn't a technology leader.
‐‐ Robert Scoble
Apple chief executive Tim Cook is such a respected figure that it's easy to overlook the basic problem with his argument about encryption: Cook is asserting that a private company and the interests of its customers should prevail over the public's interest as expressed by our courts.
‐‐ David Ignatius
Apple Computer would not have reached its current peak of success if it had feared to roll the dice and launch products that didn't always hit the mark. In the mid-1990s, the company was considered washed up, Steve Jobs had departed, and a string of lackluster product launches unrelated to the company's core business.
‐‐ Naveen Jain
Apple does great products, but at the end of the day we think consumers want choice, consumers want openness.
‐‐ Rob Glaser
Apple doesn't do hobbies as a general rule.
‐‐ Tim Cook
Apple doesn't need to maximize book sales. It simply needs to keep publishers happy enough to maintain an impressive-sounding inventory of titles while waiting for entirely new forms of publishing to develop.
‐‐ Virginia Postrel
Apple enjoys 'Harry Potter'-like adoration and queues because it sells physical objects, limited by the pace of assembly lines in China. To own is to have, to have is to hold, and to hold is to show off.
‐‐ Douglas Rushkoff
Apple has a culture of excellence that is, I think, so unique and so special. I'm not going to witness or permit the change of it.
‐‐ Tim Cook
Apple has always leveraged technologies that the PC industry has driven to critical mass - the bus structures, the graphics cards, the peripherals, the connection networks, things like that - so they're kind of in the PC ecosystem and kind of not.
‐‐ Bill Gates
Apple has an opening to say, 'The tools we are selling to you will enable you to do things rather than do things for you.' Google's vision is tools that will do things for you.
‐‐ Evgeny Morozov
Apple has beautiful design, beautiful product, incredibly functional. But mostly, it's about picking product, getting behind it, marketing it, and introducing it to a customer. What they've done just inspires me.
‐‐ Mickey Drexler
Apple has great marketing, among the best PR and marketing in the world.
‐‐ Ron Johnson
Apple has hundreds of stores around the world that are beautiful, and they have a distribution system and a staff of 40 or 50 people that will help you.
‐‐ Robert Scoble
Apple has long been a leading innovator of mobile technology; I myself own an iPhone.
‐‐ Al Franken
Apple has made this commitment that it's a green company. So how do you fulfill your commitment if you don't consider you have responsibility in your suppliers' pollution?
‐‐ Ma Jun
Apple has the radio stations, so I go R&B in the morning, and then I'll go with some hip-hop before the game. But after the game, it's more meditation music. It's not artists; it's more whatever is being played.
‐‐ Jason Kidd
Apple is a failure because they missed social? Nobody would say that, because they are having great success.
‐‐ Steve Ballmer
Apple is a wonderful company for its customers and investors. So, too, Pixar. (NeXT, not so much...) But Apple is also an engine of misery for its subcontracted Chinese workers.
‐‐ Eric Alterman
Apple is always focused on out-innovating itself... and that is something I am very proud to be a part of.
‐‐ Arthur D. Levinson
Apple is in a position they've been in a lot of times before. They're like Moses showing the way to the promised land, but they don't actually go there.
‐‐ Tim O'Reilly
Apple is so focused on its vision that it does things in a very careful, deliberate way.
‐‐ John Sculley
Apple is to the United States government what Clarence Thomas was to the civil rights coalition. How dare you get this big sidestepping us.
‐‐ Rush Limbaugh
Apple, iTunes, and streaming services have made the single a more easy thing to access. What that's done has made the album as a collection of songs almost meaningless. But an album that has a concept or story or reason to be an album, if anything, has more meaning now than it ever has.
‐‐ Matt Bellamy
Apple knows a lot of data. Facebook knows a lot of data. Amazon knows a lot of data. Microsoft used to, and still does with some people, but in the newer world, Microsoft knows less and less about me. Xbox still knows a lot about people who play games. But those are the big five, I guess.
‐‐ Robert Scoble
Apple makes beautiful products. I own a Mac Pro, a Mac Book, a Mac Mini, an iPad, an iPhone, pretty much the entire collection.
‐‐ Nick Denton
Apple makes really good products, and Samsung makes really good products. It's really a two-horse race. Where I think Apple is exposed: the price points of Apple's products are just so high by comparison with Samsung's.
‐‐ John Sculley
Apple products aren't simple technologies by any stretch, but there is a beautiful simplicity to them.
‐‐ John Maeda
Apple really has no presence in business, and we think Vista's going to have a huge presence in business. We think we're going to help the corporate IT stack save money.
‐‐ Jim Allchin
Apple's goal isn't to make money. Our goal is to design and develop and bring to market good products.
‐‐ Jonathan Ive
Apple's Industrial Design team is harder to get into than the Illuminati, and part of the reason is because no one leaves. In the last 15 years, not one of the 18 designers has ditched Apple for greener pastures.
