The Senate is a place filled with goodwill and good intentions, and if the road to hell is paved with them, then it's a pretty good detour.
‐‐ Hubert H. Humphrey
The Senate is a remarkable institution. It is unique. There is no other body, no other political body, no other democratic legislature in the world quite like the U.S. Senate.
‐‐ Max Baucus
The Senate is an unknowing world.
‐‐ Robert Caro
The Senate is the last primitive society in the world. We still worship the elders of the tribe and honor the territorial imperative.
‐‐ Eugene McCarthy
The Senate Majority Leader has the unilateral ability to stand up and say, 'If you defy Congress, if you defy the Constitution, if you defy the American people, none of your nominees will be confirmed.'
‐‐ Ted Cruz
The Senate must approve any deal President Obama negotiates with Iran by a two-thirds majority vote.
‐‐ Tom Cotton
The Senate needs 60 votes to pass anything. They have to compromise with liberal Democrats to spend more money. Even though arguably we have control of the Senate, we really don't.
‐‐ Steve Chabot
The Senate voted 59 to 39 in favor of an amendment I offered to the Budget Resolution calling on the Fed to tell the American people who they loaned $2.2 trillion to and how much each bank received.
‐‐ Bernie Sanders
The Senate was an odd compromise between the founders and the early leaders of the republic who wanted a single house which was based on popular sovereignty representing the people and those founders who wanted two houses, the upper house, the Senate, being the more aristocratic.
‐‐ George Packer
The Senator from Massachusetts has given us ample grounds to doubt the judgment and the attitude he brings to bear on vital issues of national security.
‐‐ Dick Cheney
The senior members of the royal family work very hard and I don't think people quite realise that.
‐‐ Zara Phillips
The senior officer who met with reporters in Baghdad said there had been 21 car bombings in the capital in May, and 126 in the past 80 days. All last year, he said, there were only about 25 car bombings in Baghdad.
‐‐ Rich Lowry
The senior thesis of Hillary D. Rodham, Wellesley College class of 1969, has been speculated about, spun, analyzed, debated, criticized and defended. But rarely has it been read, because for the eight years of Bill Clinton's presidency it was locked away.
‐‐ Bill Dedman
The Senior Tour is a good concept, although frankly I'm not astounded at its continued success. It gives a lot of guys an opportunity to extend their careers.
‐‐ Jack Nicklaus
The Senkaku Islands are an integral part of Japanese territory based on international law as well as in the context of our history.
‐‐ Shinzo Abe
The Senkaku islands are inherently Japanese territory. I want to show my strong determination to prevent this from changing.
‐‐ Shinzo Abe
The Sennett system of making pictures was actually fun. You never knew what the person next to you was going to do.
‐‐ Gloria Swanson
The sensation of dying is sweet, sensuous, placid.
‐‐ Eddie Rickenbacker
The sensation of flying is incredible, and it's such a miraculous notion to go into the air and see the world without delineation.
‐‐ Ellen McLaughlin
The sensation of never feeling good enough or pretty enough will always be there. It's a constant dialogue, and you just learn to be more powerful than that other voice. When you hear it come up, you shut it down.
‐‐ Shirley Manson
The sensation of writing a book is the sensation of spinning, blinded by love and daring. It is the sensation of a stunt pilot's turning barrel rolls, or an inchworm's blind rearing from a stem in search of a route. At its worst, it feels like alligator wrestling, at the level of the sentence.
‐‐ Annie Dillard
The sense of a spiritual dimension in life is absolutely important, and the religious communities are also important. The question of believing in a set of creedal statements is a lot less important, because I realize the Christian movement thrived then and can now on other elements of the tradition.
‐‐ Elaine Pagels
The sense of being a separate, egoic self begins with the astral, not with the physical, body. The soul is individualized spirit.
‐‐ Paramahansa Yogananda
The sense of danger is never, perhaps, so fully apprehended as when the danger has been overcome.
‐‐ Arthur Helps
The sense of flowing, which is so crucial to song, is also crucial to poetry.
‐‐ Edward Hirsch
The sense of historical continuity, and a feeling for philosophical rectitude cannot, however, be compromised.
‐‐ Herbert Read
The sense of humor has other things to do than to make itself conspicuous in the act of laughter.
‐‐ Alice Meynell
The sense of jubilee for music and what we're making is always genuine.
‐‐ Florence Welch
The sense of one's past is so strong and forms our sense of self so strongly, it will always fascinate, elude and confuse me.
‐‐ Samantha Harvey
The sense of popularity in an actor is essential.
‐‐ Roger Rees
The sense of smell explores; deleterious substances almost always have an unpleasant smell.
‐‐ Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
The sense of smell in all dogs is their primary doorway to the world around them.
‐‐ Robert Crais
The sense of smell, like a faithful counsellor, foretells its character.
‐‐ Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
The sense of this word among the Greeks affords the noblest definition of it; enthusiasm signifies God in us.
‐‐ Madame de Stael
The sense of war, the extraordinary bravery of the Allied armies, the numbers, the losses, the real suffering that disappears in time and commemorative oratory, are not marked out in any red guidebook of the emotions, but they are present if you look.
‐‐ John Vinocur
The sense organs experience the external light, sound, etc. with difficulty; the different sense organs only have a so-called specific receptivity for particular stimuli.
‐‐ Johannes P. Muller
The senseless killing of 20 children and their teachers and principal at Sandy Hook Elementary School was not part of God's grand plan. It was a thwarting of God's plan. It was the misuse of human freedom.
‐‐ Adam Hamilton
The senses are of the earth, the reason stands apart from them in contemplation.
‐‐ Leonardo da Vinci
The senses are the organs by which man places himself in connexion with exterior objects.
‐‐ Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
The senses deceive from time to time, and it is prudent never to trust wholly those who have deceived us even once.
‐‐ Rene Descartes
The sensitive artist knows that a bitter wind is blowing.
‐‐ Herbert Read
The sensitive ear of the musician detects a certain musical note in every city which is different from that of another city. He hears in each little brook a new melody, and to him the sound of wind in the treetops of different forests give a varying sound.
‐‐ Max Heindel
The sensitivity of men to small matters, and their indifference to great ones, indicates a strange inversion.
‐‐ Blaise Pascal
The sensors have many potential practical uses - in Government buildings, train carriages, cargo containers, on a soldier's lapel - and are a thousand times cheaper than current sensors that are used for the same purpose.
‐‐ Anne Campbell
The sensory acts are accordingly distinguished by their objects.
‐‐ Samuel Alexander
The sentence imposed on Abdul Kadir sends a powerful and clear message. We will bring to justice those who plot to attack the United States of America.
‐‐ Loretta Lynch
The sentences I write have their roots in song and poetry, and take their bearings from music and painting, as much as from the need to impart mere information, or mirror anything. I am not a realist writer, even if I seem like one.
‐‐ Colm Toibin
The sentient beast has long been a staple of fantasy fiction and its antecedents in myth and folktale.
‐‐ Paul Di Filippo
The sentiment of those suggesting the Olympics and Paralympics be combined is no doubt well intentioned. But it also echoes the myth that disabled people want to be other than what we are - that we'd like nothing more than to be 'allowed in' with the able-bodied competitors.
‐‐ Stella Young
The sentimental view of anything is apt to be ridiculous, but I feel that I have been unusually sensitive to the issue of place since I was a little boy.
‐‐ James Howard Kunstler
