Because of my intense hopes for the youth of China, I feel very keenly my responsibility for their future success or failure. The fate of China lies in their hands. The responsibility for organizing and training them to become worthy citizens of China, able to undertake the tasks of Resistance and Reconstruction, is mine; I cannot evade it.

Because of my interest in songwriting, I was invited to visit a friend in L.A. for songwriting sessions with him and his friends. We wrote six songs by the end of the weekend, and 'Hide Away' happened to be one of them!

Because of my job, I get a lot of opportunity to grab a few days here and there in many cool cities for press commitments, magazine shoots and premieres - Barcelona, Madrid, Rome, Paris, Stockholm, New York, Berlin. I always try to get to a gallery or museum if there's time.
‐‐ Natalie Dormer
Because of my job, my hair gets played with a lot on set, so I try to give it little bit of breathing space when I'm not working.
‐‐ Gugu Mbatha-Raw
Because of my language and the pantomime with which most Europeans accompany their speech, I was catalogued as a heavy.
‐‐ Bela Lugosi
Because of my life experiences, I understand that I have an opportunity to help other women. I have the desire and the ability.
‐‐ Gloria Allred
Because of my Marxism, I was not into myths or miracles, whether it was the virgin birth, the physical resurrection or casting out demons from an epileptic.
‐‐ Lionel Blue
Because of my medical and ideological training, I am accustomed to saying that life is adaptation and symbiosis.
‐‐ Tabare Vazquez
Because of my New Line upbringing, half my heart goes to scrappy independents, and half goes to mainstream, down-the-middle pop culture events. And even with those, to try to keep something fresh and original with them and try to do things that the majors miss.
‐‐ Michael De Luca
Because of my own experience with market fluctuation, I recognize the great risks one takes on investments. This converts the Social Security safety net into a risky proposition many cannot afford to take.
‐‐ Grace Napolitano
Because of my own family's service (in the U.S. Army, Navy, and Massachusetts and New York National Guard), I am a strong supporter of the military and do believe that there are just wars.
‐‐ Camille Paglia
Because of my parents' love of democracy, we came to America after being driven twice from our home in Czechoslovakia - first by Hitler and then by Stalin.
‐‐ Madeleine Albright
Because of my political views, I've been targeted as a lightning rod, someone who's too far out there.
‐‐ John Turner
Because of my poor writing posture, I started walking in the forest every day, and I found it a potent place to be creatively. It changed me in that it was a new way of doing my creative process, and I realised how much I liked being among tall trees.
‐‐ Morris Gleitzman
Because of my Portuguese heritage, I have an interest in all of the instrumentation that comes from Portugal and Brazil as well.
‐‐ Nelly Furtado
Because of my success in the private sector, I had the chance to run America's largest city for 12 years, governing in the wake of its greatest tragedy.
‐‐ Michael Bloomberg
Because of my tremendous respect for Bob Barker and for the show's high standards of professionalism I consider this a tremendous honor that few announcers have ever been treated to. Both Rod's and Johnny's shoes are huge; I can't think about filling them.
‐‐ Randy West
Because of my unique experience as my mom's child, the beginning of my journey was more about me trying to figure out who I was on my own. My mom is one of the greatest moms and so supportive of all my siblings and of all of us being who we are, and not who she wanted us to be.
‐‐ Tracee Ellis Ross
Because of my upbringing, I believe in things like limited government, fiscal responsibility and personal accountability. I believe in the wisdom of our founders and the sanctity of our Constitution.
‐‐ John Thune
Because of my voice, speaking words which had been carefully chosen, women had used money they had set aside for other purposes to buy war bonds.
‐‐ Kate Smith
Because of my wrestling background, nothing a director can throw at me on a set can faze me.
‐‐ Dwayne Johnson
Because of Obama's ill-advised actions, the world has lost American leadership.
‐‐ Michael T. Flynn
Because of our social circumstances, male and female are really two cultures and their life experiences are utterly different.
‐‐ Kate Millett
Because of our youthful population, we suffer from unemployment in Iran. We need more universities and more job opportunities for the young.
‐‐ Shirin Ebadi
Because of people like that guy in San Francisco who told me it changed his life, 'Teen Witch' is my most favorite thing I've ever done. I see how happy it makes people, and that makes me happy. The great thing is that no one realized it was going to become all these things when we were making it. We thought we were making a very serious movie.
‐‐ Robyn Lively
Because of piracy there has been a massive downturn in people buying music, which makes it more difficult for artists to make money from the sale of records.
‐‐ Lily Allen
Because of poverty, we must adopt the capitalist means of production to develop our resources to get rich. However, if we ignore the issue of social justice at the beginning of China's industrialization, we will sow the seeds of class warfare in the future.
‐‐ Sun Yat-sen
Because of President Obama's failed record on nearly every issue from the economy to the deficit to Medicare, the Obama campaign has become increasingly dirty, despicable, and desperate.
‐‐ Reince Priebus
Because of reality television and all these celebrities thinking they can be designers, everyone imagines that they can just become a designer, photographer, or model, but that's not the way things work. People have to go to school, learn their craft, and build a brand - that's the right, healthy way to do things.
‐‐ Anna Wintour
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.
‐‐ Yuan T. Lee
Because of social media, a lot of people think they can be, like, a rapper or a singer or a musician because they can put something on YouTube and it might become a thing because there's - like - YouTube phenomenons and whatnot, you know? It's not like they dedicated years to it or anything. It's annoying.
‐‐ Sky Ferreira
Because of social media, we have a lot of personal essays floating around; you see them on Facebook: everyone's either reading them or writing them. Some of them are great; some of them are diary entries put forth as essays.
‐‐ Meghan Daum
Because of streaming, serialized television has become less of a dirty word when you're pitching shows. I had to fight for that for so long as someone who's always gravitated towards ongoing story lines with characters that evolved and changed and storylines that continued over longer arcs.
‐‐ Jason Katims
Because of technological limits, there is a certain amount of food that we can produce per acre. If we were to have intensive greenhouse agriculture, we could have much higher production.
‐‐ Ralph Merkle
Because of technology today, we expect kids to stay in touch with us too much. I think that's unnatural. We really do have to give kids their freedom and allow them to go off and become adults.
‐‐ Andie MacDowell
Because of technology, we don't develop telepathy. We don't use telepathy, but use, you know, the mobile phones. Why?
‐‐ Marina Abramovic
Because of that I don't care when I read in the newspaper that I am colourblind. I went through a red light in my car and I stopped when I before a green light. So I must be really colourblind, eh?
‐‐ Ruud van Nistelrooy
Because of the accumulation of objects, things are never quite the way I want them to be. There has always been a lack of, well, clarity.
‐‐ B. D. Wong
Because of the active principle and spirit or universal soul, nothing is so incomplete, defective or imperfect, or, according to common opinion, so completely insignificant that it could not become the source of great events.
‐‐ Giordano Bruno
Because of the Affordable Care Act, millions of Americans finally have the security that comes from quality, affordable health coverage. And, millions more have better, more reliable coverage than ever before.
‐‐ Todd Park
Because of the audience I get and the fact that these people aren't traditional comics buyers I don't think the comic industry looks at that and thinks that is a very respectable thing. I'm very used to it. I'm not the guy who wins awards and gets mentioned in magazines.
‐‐ Jhonen Vasquez
Because of 'The Birds' and 'Marnie' I was, as the expression goes, hot in Hollywood and producers and directors wanted to hire me.
‐‐ Tippi Hedren
Because of the changes in the Padres team I played with last year, I felt like a veteran recently when I worked out with Jason Kendall and he told me he's liked listening to my records since he was a kid!
‐‐ Garth Brooks
Because of the Chinese culture of obedience, you don't ask questions... You follow and obey.
‐‐ Bai Ling
Because of the diverse conditions of humans, it happens that some acts are virtuous to some people, as appropriate and suitable to them, while the same acts are immoral for others, as inappropriate to them.
‐‐ Thomas Aquinas
Because of the dog's joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift. It is not the least reason why we should honor as love the dog of our own life, and the dog down the street, and all the dogs not yet born.
‐‐ Mary Oliver
Because of the earlier loss of the two elder siblings, my brother and I lived a very pampered and protected life. Nursemaids kept constant watch. With my parents busy at dinner parties and social events, we only met them as if for a daily royal audience.
‐‐ Charles K. Kao
Because of the economic crisis, China and the United States are bound together. This is a totally new phenomenon, and nobody will fight for ideology anymore. It's all about business.
‐‐ Ai Weiwei
Because of the enormous responsibility, diabetic kids tend to grow up to be the most mature, most realistic people who have a natural desire to reach outside of themselves.
‐‐ Mary Tyler Moore
