Analysis kills spontaneity. The grain once ground into flour springs and germinates no more.

Analysis of soil, grave goods and skeletons has been key to our understanding of archaeology and the migration of peoples, as well as their daily lives. But in mainstream history, we tend to stick to documents.

‐‐ Dilip Shanghvi
Analysts keep having to pick away at the scab that the patient tries to form between himself and the analyst to cover over his wounds. The analyst keeps the surface raw, so that the wound will heal properly.
‐‐ Janet Malcolm
Analysts may be correct that the presidential election won't primarily turn on entitlements reform, but by choosing Paul Ryan as his running mate, Mitt Romney can, contrary to conventional wisdom, make it a winning issue and lay the foundation for a reform mandate when he wins.
‐‐ David Limbaugh
Analysts say that one reason Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were privatized in the first place was to prevent political whims from dominating the mortgage marketplace.
‐‐ Charles Duhigg
Analysts, scholars, business people, diplomats, and journalists involved with China spend so much time questioning one another's biases and loyalties that they have even settled on two opposing categories: 'panda huggers' versus 'panda sluggers.'

Analytical pharmacology has got an important and exciting future.
‐‐ James Black
'Analyze This' is a good movie because Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal are really good. But without the material to put on the play, of course, they couldn't be good. For me, it starts with the writing. I always think that the writer is doing the vast majority of the director's work, in a sense.
‐‐ Harold Ramis
Analyzing humor is like dissecting a frog. Few people are interested and the frog dies of it.
‐‐ E. B. White
Analyzing what you haven't got as well as what you have is a necessary ingredient of a career.

Anarchism is founded on the observation that since few men are wise enough to rule themselves, even fewer are wise enough to rule others.
‐‐ Edward Abbey
Anarchism is the great liberator of man from the phantoms that have held him captive; it is the arbiter and pacifier of the two forces for individual and social harmony.
‐‐ Emma Goldman
Anarchism means all sort of things to different people, but the traditional anarchists' movements assumed that there'd be a highly organized society, just one organized from below with direct participation and so on.
‐‐ Noam Chomsky
Anarchists are simply unterrified Jeffersonian Democrats.
‐‐ Benjamin Tucker
Anarchists are socialists because they want the improvement of society, and they are communists because they are convinced that such a transformation of society can only result from the establishment of a commonwealth of property.
‐‐ Johann Most
Anarchists prepare for social revolution and use every means- speech, writing, or deed, whichever is more to the point - to accelerate revolutionary development.
‐‐ Johann Most
Anarchy is as detestable in grammar as it is in society.
‐‐ Maurice Druon
Anarchy is the only slight glimmer of hope.
‐‐ Mick Jagger
Anarchy may await America, due to the daily injustices suffered by the people.
‐‐ Louis Farrakhan
Ancestor worship, or filial piety so characteristic of Asian cultures, for example, does not really resonate with Americans who favor children, not grandparents.
‐‐ Alan Dundes
'Anchorman' is my favorite movie of all time and Ron Burgundy is one of my favorite characters of all time. It's my 'Gone With the Wind.'
‐‐ Eva Mendes
'Anchorman'... is not grounded in anything. There is absolutely no heart to that movie, which I love.
‐‐ Steve Carell
Anchovies pair really well with fruit like a nectarines or clementine. The fruit complements the sweetness and saltiness of the anchovy.
‐‐ Jose Andres
Ancient Egyptians went to great lengths to avoid change; they couldn't entirely do so, of course, but did preserve a cultural continuity for almost four thousand years.
‐‐ Pamela Sargent
Ancient eschatological texts are actually maps of the inner territories of the psyche that seem to transcend race and culture and originate in the collective unconscious.
‐‐ Stanislav Grof
Ancient recipients of instant news probably couldn't do very much about it, for instance. Xerxes would still need three months to get his army together, and he might not get home for years.
‐‐ Peter Singer
Ancient Rome was a violent place.
‐‐ James Purefoy
Ancient Rome was as confident of the immutability of its world and the continual expansion and improvement of the human lot as we are today.
‐‐ Arthur Erickson
Ancient societies had anthropomorphic gods: a huge pantheon expanding into centuries of dynastic drama; fathers and sons, martyred heroes, star-crossed lovers, the deaths of kings - stories that taught us of the danger of hubris and the primacy of humility.
‐‐ Tom Hiddleston
Ancient, woman-centered words and beliefs never, like, fall off the planet. Having long done taken on a life of their own, they - like womankind - evolve, and survive. Chameleon style.
‐‐ Inga Muscio
Ancients knew that you need guidance, patronage and protection as you move from one place or state to another, whenever you cross a bridge. You had better know what you are doing when you leave one group or place to join another.
‐‐ Richard Rohr
'Ancillary Sword' picked up the Locus and the BSFA, which surprised the heck out of me.
‐‐ Ann Leckie
And $18 million in three Japanese banks, completely false. That I have two factories in Panama, also completely false. This is part of the counter campaign of some people.
‐‐ Alberto Fujimori
And a building must be like a human being. It must have a wholeness about it, something that is very important.
‐‐ Minoru Yamasaki
And a democracy can't exist without free speech and the right to assemble. And that's what Americans tend to forget. And they're born into a culture where they take all of their freedoms for granted.
‐‐ Larry Flynt
And a friend of mine in the Christys, we used to sit up at night and talk and read and wonder if reincarnation, and if it wasn't reality, what would happen to the human spirit when the body dies? Is there an afterlife? Just questions like that.
‐‐ Barry McGuire
And a lesson in this movie is dig beneath the surface. And so with my words, with my character, I purposely created a character that was away from how you've known me thus far in my career.
‐‐ Shemar Moore
And a lot of the artists and people that we hired were fans of Transformers growing up, so having so many fans working on my crew really kept me on point.

And a special thank you to the citizens of Massachusetts: You are paying all the taxes, creating all the jobs, raising all the children. This government is yours. Thank you for letting me serve you. I love this job.

And about in the late '80s, I got kind of burned out a little bit.
‐‐ Lee Majors
And above all things, never think that you're not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning.
‐‐ Isaac Asimov
And across Afghanistan, every single day, Afghan soldiers, Afghan police and ISAF troops are serving shoulder-to-shoulder in some very difficult situations. And our engagement with them, our shoulder-to-shoulder relationship with them, our conduct of operations with them every single day defines the real relationship.
‐‐ John R. Allen
And actually, about three weeks ago, Micky, Peter and I were in Vegas at the MGM Grand. And we did about 12 shows in seven days. It was quite an experience.
‐‐ Davy Jones
And, actually it was interesting because I had done a lot of traveling in the United States and Canada and Mexico on my motorcycle; and I was really, it was the first time I had really gotten out of the Minnesota area to speak of.
‐‐ Duane G. Carey
And after about two years, I realized that creative writing was not going to help you ace those biological tests. So I switched over to journalism. I didn't graduate with honors, but I did graduate on time and with some doing.
