The existence of the Taliban, in my view, is a tragedy for Afghanistan. We as Americans need to understand our role in helping bring that tragedy about. So I think it's important to look at the stories about why these people are fighting.

The existentialist says at once that man is anguish.
‐‐ Jean-Paul Sartre
The existing documentary makers still believe that it is impossible to produce drama material in this State, otherwise they would be doing it, they say.
‐‐ Ann Macbeth
The existing principle of selfish interest and competition has been carried to its extreme point; and, in its progress, has isolated the heart of man, blunted the edge of his finest sensibilities, and annihilated all his most generous impulses and sympathies.
‐‐ Frances Wright
The existing system will be quickest and most radically overthrown by the annihilation of its exponents. Therefore, massacres of the enemies of the people must be set in motion.
‐‐ Johann Most
The exit polls suggest that after a relatively disappointing first term, Obama managed to reassemble almost all of his 2008 electorate.
‐‐ John Podhoretz
The Exorcist doesn't get me, but The Omen does.
‐‐ Ethan Embry
The Exorcist has been a very interesting cross to bear.
‐‐ Linda Blair
'The Exorcist' is absolutely my favorite horror film, and I watched it when I was, like, seven years old with my mother for the first time. I don't know why my mom let me watch that. I couldn't go to the bathroom by myself. I couldn't go upstairs by myself. I couldn't sleep.
‐‐ Odette Annable
'The Exorcist' is amazing because it recognizes that silences can be as powerful as sound effects.
‐‐ Frank Darabont
'The Exorcist' is one of the finest movies ever made, and it just so happens to be a scary movie.
‐‐ James Wan
'The Exorcist' is the scariest movie ever made. It just felt dead-on real, like you were watching the existence of the devil.
‐‐ M. Night Shyamalan
The Expanded Learning Time program is a voluntary one - only districts and schools that want to apply are in the program and supported by the state to pursue their plans.
‐‐ Chris Gabrieli
The expansion and sophistication of transnational crime represents one of the most dangerous threats we confront in the next millennium.
‐‐ Rand Beers
The expansion of choice has become an explosion of choice.
‐‐ Sheena Iyengar
The expansion of the market creates a need for enhanced and more regular supply, and this in turn impels commercial capital to acquire control of production as well.
‐‐ Rudolf Hiferding
The expansion of tobacco cessation centers is an important part of our historic and continuing effort to help smokers quit. The expansion of these centers will give even more New Yorkers the help they need to quit once and for all.
‐‐ George Pataki
The expansionary operations of the Second Bank of the United States, coupled with its laxity toward insisting on specie payment by the state banks, impelled a further inflationary expansion of state banks on top of the spectacular enlargement of the central bank. Thus, the number of incorporated state banks rose from 232 in 1816 to 338 in 1818.
‐‐ Murray Rothbard
The expansive anarchy of the Internet continues to lull us into believing that, because we can see something, that something should be seen. Because we can say something, there is something that must be said.
‐‐ Roxane Gay
The expectation in the Obama Administration, or at least the hope, is that a nuclear deal with the West could ultimately moderate Iranian behavior by helping to integrate the country more thoroughly into the international system. Will this happen? It's impossible to predict, of course. We will only know if we get there.
‐‐ Dexter Filkins
The expectation on me as a solo artist is very different to the audience's expectation of a Pink Floyd show.
‐‐ David Gilmour
The expectation was I would get married and become a mother and settle down. We didn't have any role models. We saw teachers and doctors and nurses, but I'm not a teacher, and there was no possibility of being a doctor or a nurse. I had to work and find my own way.
‐‐ Alexis Wright
The expectation was that 'True Confessions' would be my first published book, but that didn't happen. After it was rejected by every publisher in New York and Canada, I shoved it in a closet and went on to write and publish my next three books.
‐‐ Rachel Gibson
The expectations are that when this investigation is completed, Fitzgerald will make the appropriate decision, which is not to charge Karl with any criminal offenses.
‐‐ Robert Luskin
The expectations for a nonfiction writer are awful high.
‐‐ Richard Ben Cramer
The expectations of life depend upon diligence; the mechanic that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools.
‐‐ Confucius
The expectations were low for 'Castle;' people thought we'd be one season and done.
‐‐ Tamala Jones
The expected vertical line of Ikiru's narrative breaks when Kurosawa does a flash-forward in the middle of the film.
‐‐ Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
The expense of a war could be paid in time; but the expense of opium, when once the habit is formed, will only increase with time.
‐‐ Townsend Harris
The experience and behavior that gets labeled schizophrenic is a special strategy that a person invents in order to live in an unlivable situation.
‐‐ R. D. Laing
The experience at the Masters was two years ago, and I am eager to win again this year so I can return to Augusta National in 2016.
‐‐ Guan Tianlang
The experience awakened 'my tremendous musical ambition, which has never subsided to this day.
‐‐ Georg Solti
The experience gathered from books, though often valuable, is but the nature of learning; whereas the experience gained from actual life is one of the nature of wisdom.
‐‐ Samuel Smiles
The experience I don't want to see repeated occurred in 'Bush v. Gore.' The Court divided five to four. There were four separate dissents, and that confused the press. In fact, some of the reporters announced that the decision was seven-two. There was no time to get together.
‐‐ Ruth Bader Ginsburg
The experience is fundamentally different for buying from local businesses than it is for buying consumer goods.
‐‐ Andrew Mason
The experience of ages has shown that a man who works on the land is purer, nobler, higher, and more moral... Agriculture should be at the basis of everything. That's my idea.
‐‐ Nikolai Gogol
The experience of being a young, blonde, naive but well-intentioned young producer was both intimidating and eye-opening.
‐‐ Clarissa Ward
The experience of being able to search back over all your team's communications for, in our case, millions of messages, is super-valuable. But you don't know what that's like until you actually have it.
‐‐ Stewart Butterfield
The experience of being an Olympian is one that can never be taken away from you.
‐‐ Hannah Kearney
The experience of being cared for is profound, and it nourishes the soul as much as the food does the body.
‐‐ Mariska Hargitay
The experience of being in space didn't change my perspective of myself or of the planet or of life. I had no spiritual experience.
‐‐ Sally Ride
The experience of being in the Army changed my whole life; I never believed that an organization such as ours could ever go to war, leave alone win it. It was, as Yeats remarked of the Easter Rising, 'A terrible beauty.'
‐‐ Spike Milligan
The experience of being on a show that is very much in the center of popular culture is exciting. You really feel like you're reaching people.
‐‐ Aasif Mandvi
The experience of both acting and producing has been wonderful. It certainly has created a full plate. But it is very exciting and rewarding to have creative input on the show. 'Reed' is about love and family and for me, playing a hand in shaping it has been deeply gratifying.
‐‐ Tracee Ellis Ross
The experience of creating my adventure games was, other than marrying my husband and bringing into the world my two sons, the most fulfilling, wonderful experience I ever had.
‐‐ Roberta Williams
The experience of democracy is like the experience of life itself-always changing, infinite in its variety, sometimes turbulent and all the more valuable for having been tested by adversity.
‐‐ Jimmy Carter
The experience of getting my Kriya, which is the meditation process that I do, was very powerful for me - though, as I explain in the book, I was really suspect of that kind of thing.
‐‐ Mariel Hemingway
The experience of God, or in any case the possibility of experiencing God, is innate.
‐‐ Alice Walker
The experience of having a child does crack you wide open. I felt like I suddenly had to rebuild the skin that I'd grown over the years before having a child. Perhaps that might be quite interesting in terms of acting.
‐‐ Anne-Marie Duff
The experience of learning how to get straight to the core of a problem proved to be of immense value later when I had a long succession of responsibilities in large, complex government departments.
