California - with more cars, more drivers and more people - still has less DWI-related deaths than Texas does.

Californians are people who insist on growing their own vegetables, but they won't dig up the pretty lawn, won't plant anything for fear of getting dirty, and they use fragrant bath salts from The Body Shop instead of smelly compost.

Californians are worried about whether they will have a job along with ballooning federal spending and deficits.

Californians don't have that marvelous British cynicism, but then the British can be so patronizing at times.

Call it a case of observer bias on my part, but Humanist Paganism seems to be an emerging option for those who want to be part of the Pagan community, but who want to be a little more intellectual about their practices, and they really don't care about the 'woo' anymore.
‐‐ Brendan Myers
Call it a hunch, but I sense that many of us are not entirely comfortable with a world in which every single thing we buy creates a cloud of data. I'd like to have an option to not have a record of how much I tipped, or what I bought at 1:08 A.M. at a corner market in New York City.
‐‐ John Battelle
Call it Camelot's revenge: the class of court scribes who made it their profession to uphold a make-believe version of America free of conflict and ruled by noble men helped Nixon get away with it for so long - because, after all, America was ruled by noble men.
‐‐ Rick Perlstein
Call it egotistical or narcissist, but I think that's what we all look for in books - the right stories that help us make sense of the world that we, on a very personal level, live in every day.
‐‐ John Corey Whaley
Call it holistic or holographic thinking, it's been quite effective imagining the world's problems are all right in front of you on a smaller scale with your band. You deal with those relationships, and that's where real major change begins.

Call it loyalty, call it what you want, but I suppose I've got people up here who I'm really tight with, we've made a lot of great bonds over the last few years and I've got people in my corner I can trust.
‐‐ Jonathan Brown
Call it my little gesture toward social conscience, but I like to think I'm teaching a certain number of people to read. Now that sounds pretentious!
‐‐ David Eddings
Call it Nature, Fate, Fortune; all these are names of the one and selfsame God.

Call it the Tiger Mom effect: In the business world today, failure is apparently not an option.
‐‐ Naveen Jain
Call it vanity, call it arrogant presumption, call it what you wish, but I would grope for the nearest open grave if I had no newspaper to work for, no need to search for and sometimes find the winged word that just fits, no keen wonder over what each unfolding day may bring.
‐‐ Bob Considine
Call it what you will, incentives are what get people to work harder.
‐‐ Nikita Khrushchev
Call me a cockeyed pessimist, but I'm having trouble finding any good news in the trashing of Harriet Miers.
‐‐ Ellen Goodman
Call me a midget, but just be real. I am all for correct terms, but please don't tiptoe around feelings. Don't be too careful, because that shuts you off from people.
‐‐ Peter Dinklage
Call me a nerd if you like, but I do find it hard to leave home without my laptop and a good book.
‐‐ Moby
Call me All-American, but I love Ham and Cheese sandwiches. And not just any old ham and cheese sandwich... My mother's is the best. I've tried many times to make these sandwiches on my own, but it's never the same.
‐‐ Andy Roddick
Call me an optimist, but in the past 300 years we have built amazing technologies which - by and large - have advanced humanity.
‐‐ Sebastian Thrun
Call me an over anxious, middle-class mum, but my eight-and-a-half-year old son looks very much, to me, like he's headed for a life of crime.

‐‐ Zoe Saldana
Call me Ildar! Call me Abra-ca-da-bra! My name is my name.
‐‐ Ildar Abdrazakov
'Call Me' is not an exceptional Al Green album, but it is as solid as a rock at its center.
‐‐ Jon Landau
Call me Jonah. My parents did, or nearly did. They called me John.
‐‐ Kurt Vonnegut
Call me old-fashioned, but I believe that morality is not just a matter of opinion.
‐‐ Brian Dennehy
Call me old-fashioned, but I like my conditioners to be conditioners and my shampoos to be shampoos.

Call not that man wretched, who whatever ills he suffers, has a child to love.
‐‐ Eric Hoffer
'Call Of Duty' initially cut its teeth on World War II simulation stuff, and then we gradually advanced to the end of the Cold War, but you can't keep doing the same thing over and over again. And I think that because 'Call Of Duty' cut its teeth on presenting 'realism,' in quotes... verisimilitude.
‐‐ David S. Goyer
Call things by their right names - Glass of brandy and water! That is the current, but not the appropriate name; ask for a glass of liquid fire and distilled damnation.
‐‐ Robert Hall
Call-time has renewed my faith in the need for public financing of elections. 'Call-time' is where I as the candidate, sit in a room with my 'call-time manager,' and a phone. Then I call people and ask them for money. For hours. Apparently, I'm really good at it.
‐‐ Al Franken
Call us the future from your past.
‐‐ Fred Schneider
Call waiting was, for me, that was like the best invention ever, because there was four kids in my family, and to get on the phone was impossible.
‐‐ Maggie Carey
Call your opinions your creed, and you will change them every week.
