The astronomer will believe that the most erratic comet will yet accomplish its journey and revisit our sphere; but we give up those for lost who have not wandered one-half the distance from the centre of light and life.
‐‐ Charles Spurgeon
'The Asylum Dance' was written after I'd moved back to Scotland and was a response to moving to my old home area of Fife.
‐‐ John Burnside
The Athanasian Creed is to me light and intelligible reading in comparison with much that now passes for science.
‐‐ Samuel Butler
The atheist, by merely being in touch with reality, appears shamefully out of touch with the fantasy life of his neighbors.
‐‐ Sam Harris
The atheist has no hope.
‐‐ James Freeman Clarke
The atheist market is a very overlooked and powerful market, it turns out.
‐‐ Ira Glass
The atheistic idea is so nonsensical that I cannot put it into words.
‐‐ Lord Kelvin
The Athenians are right to accept advice from anyone, since it is incumbent on everyone to share in that sort of excellence, or else there can be no city at all.
‐‐ Protagoras
The Athenians had an oath for someone who was about to become a citizen. They had to swear that 'I shall leave the city not less but more beautiful than I found it.'
‐‐ Richard Rogers
The athlete of today is not an athlete alone. He's the center of a team - doctors, scientists, coaches, agents and so on.
‐‐ Emil Zatopek
The athletes are still out competing the same as a Division I team, and I think we've done a good job of creating an atmosphere where they're responsible for their actions and their play.
‐‐ Cat Osterman
The Athletic Association competed against the University. So there was an event. You cannot break world records unless it is an established event, and you have three timekeepers, and the whole thing is organized.
‐‐ Roger Bannister
The Atlanta Braves are really all that our children know about this crazy baseball life, and we are so thankful for this upbringing for them.
‐‐ Tim Hudson
The Atlantic conference in the North Atlantic off Newfoundland is a dramatic moment in World War II history because for the first time, Roosevelt and Churchill are meeting face to face in this war.
‐‐ Robert Dallek
'The Atlantic' really gave me my writing career - even just the conviction to be a writer.
‐‐ Nic Pizzolatto
The atmosphere at my school was very competitive. Young girls were competing with each other every day for status, for leadership, for the affection of the teachers. I hated it.
‐‐ Zhang Ziyi
The atmosphere defines the environment of sound.
‐‐ Bill Laswell
The atmosphere does not fathom whether CO2 comes from U.S. oil or Chinese coal, nor do hurricanes lose force because the Heritage Foundation doesn't believe global warming is a problem. Living systems operate on laws over which we have no say.
‐‐ Paul Hawken
The atmosphere is different in Congress after September 11. Terrorism is no longer an abstract issue, but a real, tangible threat.
‐‐ Howard Berman
The atmosphere is great for people - it allows us to survive - but it's a real headache for astronomers.
‐‐ Andrea M. Ghez
The atmosphere is much too near for dreams. It forces us to action. It is close to us. We are in it and of it. It rouses us both to study and to do. We must know its moods and also its motive forces.
‐‐ Cleveland Abbe
The atmosphere is so tense, if Elvis walked in, with a portion of chips... you could hear the vinegar sizzle on them.
‐‐ Sid Waddell
The atmosphere of Catholicism in Korea is quite different to the way it is practised and perceived in Europe or the U.S.
‐‐ Park Chan-wook
The atmosphere of libraries, lecture rooms and laboratories is dangerous to those who shut themselves up in them too long. It separates us from reality like a fog.
‐‐ Alexis Carrel
The atmosphere of orthodoxy is always damaging to prose, and above all it is completely ruinous to the novel, the most anarchical of all forms of literature.
‐‐ George Orwell
The atmosphere of the theater is my oxygen.
‐‐ Placido Domingo
The atmosphere seems to change once the sun goes down and the race fans get to watch a good show.
‐‐ Dale Earnhardt
The atmosphere was wide open in those circles that we traveled in.
‐‐ David Amram
The atmospheric CO2 concentration is rising - mainly due to the burning of fossil fuels. It's agreed that this build-up will, in itself, induce a long-term warming trend, superimposed on all the other complicated effects that make climate fluctuate.
‐‐ Martin Rees
The atom bomb is a paper tiger which the United States reactionaries use to scare people. It looks terrible, but in fact it isn't.
‐‐ Mao Zedong
The atom bomb was no 'great decision.' It was merely another powerful weapon in the arsenal of righteousness.
‐‐ Harry S Truman
The atom bombs are piling up in the factories, the police are prowling through the cities, the lies are streaming from the loudspeakers, but the earth is still going round the sun.
‐‐ George Orwell
The atom was unleashed in 1946, right when all this stuff was occurring. And the bomb's incredible release of energy and light may have signalled somebody in a dimension which is sharing space with us very closely.
‐‐ Dwight Schultz
The Atomic Age is here to stay - but are we?
‐‐ Bennett Cerf
The atomic bomb certainly is the most powerful of all weapons, but it is conclusively powerful and effective only in the hands of the nation which controls the sky.
‐‐ Lyndon B. Johnson
The atomic bomb made the prospect of future war unendurable. It has led us up those last few steps to the mountain pass; and beyond there is a different country.
‐‐ J. Robert Oppenheimer
The atomic weapons race and the secrecy surrounding it crushed American democracy. It induced us to conduct government according to lies. It distorted justice. It undermined American morality.
‐‐ Stewart Udall
The atoms become like a moth, seeking out the region of higher laser intensity.
‐‐ Steven Chu
The attack and our response show just how vital Arizona's military bases are to the defense of our country. We need to do everything we can to protect them.
‐‐ Jane D. Hull
The attack did not succeed as well as I had hoped, no small impediment having been the loss of my right leg.
‐‐ Peter Stuyvesant
The attack of John Brown upon Harper's Ferry came upon Virginia like a clap of thunder out of a clear sky.
‐‐ John Sergeant Wise
The attack on Americans in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 is a stark reminder that our nation must remain vigilant in protecting our citizens from the threat of Al-Qaeda and similar extremist terrorist entities around the world.
‐‐ Bob Corker
The attack on Clinton on terrorism is entirely politically inspired by the right-wing of the Republicans, and has no basis in fact whatsoever.
‐‐ Sidney Blumenthal
The attack on ObamaCare was that Congress does not have the power under the Commerce Clause to force a private citizen into a private contractual relationship. If such a thing is permitted to stand, the anti-ObamaCare forces argue, there will be no limit to Congress's power in the future.
‐‐ John Podhoretz
The attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 completely crippled our Pacific Fleet.
‐‐ Jerry Costello
The attack on the British embassy in Tehran came just days after the Iranian 'parliament' voted to expel the British ambassador, and therefore reeks of official complicity.
‐‐ Elliott Abrams
The attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi has become a political football in the presidential campaign, with all the grandstanding and misinformation that entails.
‐‐ David Ignatius
The attacks in Jordan, just like those before it in Indonesia, Egypt, Spain and the United States, demonstrate that terrorism does not discriminate by race, ethnicity or region. Instead, terrorists indiscriminately target those seeking to live a peaceful, loving and free life.
‐‐ Allyson Schwartz
The attacks of 9/11 came out of Afghanistan. It was a failed state, a rogue nation. That's why al Qaeda was there in the first place.
‐‐ Sebastian Junger
The attacks of September 11, 2001, were spectacular, riveting, grim, costly and searing. The shock that they caused reverberated throughout the world. What happened in New York and Washington and Pennsylvania ended the lives of thousands of people and changed the lives of many more. But they did not change the world.
