At least in part, people are attracted to subjects where they can identify at a basic level with the people who do it. The extraordinary aesthetic of the natural world is not obvious to someone who never leaves the inner city. Appreciation of the elegance and power of physical law is an acquired taste.
‐‐ Margaret Geller
At least in Phoenix, you can get off the main highways and take side streets to where you want to go. In L.A., you can't. You're stuck.
‐‐ Steve Finley
At least in Russia, you cannot just go and tap into someone's phone conversation without a warrant issued by court. That's more or less the way a civilized society should go about fighting terrorism.
‐‐ Vladimir Putin
At least in the United States, most economic resentment is not directed toward billionaires or high-roller financiers - not even corrupt ones. It's directed at the guy down the hall who got a bigger raise. It's directed at the husband of your wife's sister, because he earns 20 percent more than you do.
‐‐ Tyler Cowen
At least in the West, politicians, corporations and media moguls can no longer take for granted their power to control the public discourse - and have it go unchallenged.
‐‐ David Puttnam
At least, in this situation, I know my chances of coming back could be slim because of the young talent the Yankees do have.
‐‐ Johnny Damon
At least is was a victory and at least we won.
‐‐ Bobby Moore
At least Obama was half-way honest about how much he was going to spend on health care. He had it at $600 billion. And the real number... is $1.2 trillion.
‐‐ Judd Gregg
At least once a week, I try to have one day where I have nothing planned so I can get up and just go back to bed and lay around and recharge my batteries.
‐‐ Dolph Lundgren
At least once a year, I meet with a group called the Giving Pledge. It's a group of billionaires - including me, Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and Ted Turner - who have pledged to give away most of their money to charity. We meet for three days to talk about what we're doing to help make the planet a better place to live.
‐‐ John Paul DeJoria
At least one reason for trying to live lives that make a difference is that by so living, we hope we will not be forgotten by those who benefit from our trying to make a difference. Yet to try to insure we will not be forgotten too often results in desperate manipulative strategies that are doomed to fail.
‐‐ Stanley Hauerwas
At least Russia and China didn't call us names when we smiled sweetly at America.
‐‐ Sukarno
At least she's the president of something, which is more than I can say.
‐‐ Bob Dole
At least six Bayern players, who have won almost everything, are in the national squad.
‐‐ Franz Beckenbauer
At least the fundamentalists haven't tried to dilute their message. Their faith is exposed for what it is for all to see.
‐‐ Richard Dawkins
At least the Pilgrim Fathers used to shoot Indians: the Pilgrim Children merely punch time clocks.
‐‐ E. E. Cummings
At least the politicians are accountable to the voters.
‐‐ Jesse Jackson
At least the rap metal stuff is good, but it's not really my bag. I've been listening to the radio since we've been touring the past month, because we don't get it most of the time.
‐‐ Jon Crosby
At least there's a political input, but when you put on the robe, at that point the politics is over.
‐‐ Stephen Breyer
At least three times a week, I am overwhelmed with a wave of gratitude to New York City for providing me with a life. Not that my life is so great, although I think it's pretty nifty: I don't mine coal; I get paid to write.
‐‐ David Rakoff
At least through most of the 1960s, I basically lived in a man's world, hardly speaking to a woman all day except to the secretaries. But I was almost totally unaware of myself as an oddity and had no comprehension of the difficulties faced by working women in our organization and elsewhere.
‐‐ Katharine Graham
At least us old men remember what a real bear market is like, and the young men haven't got a clue.
‐‐ Jeremy Grantham
At least when it comes to food, there's no snobbery in Singapore.
‐‐ Kevin Kwan
At least when it's in French, I won't know what the heck they're saying.
‐‐ Frank Robinson
At least when you're acting you can be someone. In front of the camera you have to be yourself. And who am I?
‐‐ Stephen Rea
At least with me, the match starts much, much earlier than the actual match.
‐‐ Sachin Tendulkar
At Leeds I've tried to concentrate on my club form, but you get caught up in all the World Cup fever once you come back to Ireland and see all the Irish boys again.
‐‐ Robbie Keane
At Leeds the idea of an international labour organization appeared in a trade-union text which also drew attention to the danger to the working classes inherent in the existence of international capitalist competition.
‐‐ Leon Jouhaux
At Linfox we have zero tolerance. If any alcohol or drugs are found in any drivers' blood, they are instantly dismissed.
‐‐ Lindsay Fox
At Linkabit, we put little effort and energy into patenting things.
‐‐ Irwin M. Jacobs
At Liverpool, I had almost everything but titles. I felt like a king, but the team was falling apart.
‐‐ Fernando Torres
At lunchtime, our kitchen was like a mini restaurant: my grandmother and mother had to cook for as many as 25 people - extended family plus 10 employees. We ate a lot of cabbage and a lot of potatoes.
‐‐ Jean-Georges Vongerichten
At LVMH, we have amazing heritage brands, and we put interesting talents in those brands, sometimes very young, like we did at Givenchy with Riccardo Tisci at the time, or like we just did with J.W. Anderson at Loewe, but also talents that are already further along in their careers, like Raf Simons at Christian Dior or Nicolas at Vuitton.
‐‐ Delphine Arnault
At male strip shows, it is still the women that we watch, the audience of women and their eager faces. They are more obscene than if they were dancing naked themselves.
‐‐ Jean Baudrillard
At many a moment on many a day, I am convinced that pro football must be a game for madmen, and I must be one of them.
‐‐ Vince Lombardi
At many points during our nation's history, there have been times - known in our history textbooks as 'panics' - when adverse conditions affecting the financial and economic sectors of the country have caused individuals to hoard more than they need.
‐‐ Jo Bonner
At Mardi Gras, the different tribes will basically play war games, and so my brother is what you call a Flag Boy, which is more of less like a tribe's diplomat. He carries the game's standard and is really the line of where the game starts.
‐‐ Christian Scott
At Marvel, I was lucky enough to work with really talented people, but I always had this nagging thought: 'One day I'll write my own stories.'
‐‐ David Mazzucchelli
At MGM, you knew you were going to be working next year; you knew you were going to get paid. But I was too ambitious musically to settle for it. And I wanted to gamble with whatever talent I might have had.
‐‐ Andre Previn
At Microsoft, the magic of software is used to take on very interesting challenges.
‐‐ Jeff Raikes
At Microsoft there are lots of brilliant ideas but the image is that they all come from the top - I'm afraid that's not quite right.
‐‐ Bill Gates
At Microsoft, we're aspiring to have a living, learning culture with a growth mindset that allows us to learn from ourselves and our customers. These are the key attributes of the new culture at Microsoft, and I feel great about how it seems to be resonating and how it's seen as empowering.
‐‐ Satya Nadella
At midlife, I think a woman has more in common with her teenage children than anybody else. We all are kind of uncertain. We realize for the first time in either our lives or decades that we're in charge now.
‐‐ Jane Pauley
At midnight every night, I would methodically leave the house for a couple hours' walk, come back in, and record. And then the sun came up. If I had done something good, then I'd be happy and go to sleep.
‐‐ Bill Callahan
At midnight on July 1, 1997, Hongkong, the British Crown Colony, will be restored to China. This is not only an event which will be celebrated by patriotic Chinese; any patriotic American should celebrate it as well.
‐‐ Robert Trout
At Mint, we developed five pending patents on our technology, ranging from categorization to the Ways to Save system that calculates how much a new financial product would save a user given their present financial situation.
‐‐ Aaron Patzer
At MIT, I had the good fortune for seven years to teach network theory, which is basic to many disciplines, to one-third of the undergraduate student body. It was an experiment to see how high we could bring their level of understanding, and it exceeded all of my expectations.
‐‐ Amar Bose
At MIT, in Professor Rodney Brooks' lab, I was involved in a project, led by Anita Flynn, to build robots using techniques similar to those used in building silicon chips. We got some silicon micro-machined motors to move a bit, but this didn't lead to an actual product.
‐‐ Colin Angle
At Moscow's Bolshoi Ballet Academy, I studied under a brilliant and fiery teacher. This tiny, stuttering old man flew into a rage if his students' white socks failed to reach mid-calf level. Nor could he tolerate floppy hair. We wore hairnets to class - an athletic brigade of short order cooks.

At most contests now, skaters are judged against themselves.
