As children we recognized that we belonged to an unusual, even exceptional, family, but the effect was different on each of us.
‐‐ David Rockefeller
As children, we think our mother has always been a mother, but it is just one of the roles you may have the opportunity to play. They don't define you as a human being.
‐‐ Amy Bloom
As children we were bombarded by competing answers. Church says one thing, school another. Now as adults it's no surprise that if we discuss the nature of it all, we generally spout some combination of the two, depending on our individual inclination and mood.

As China is about adaptation, not transformation, it is unlikely to change the world dramatically should it ever assume the global driver's seat. But this does not mean that China won't exploit that world for its own purposes.

As Chloe, I can honestly say I've never uttered a syllable of a curse word, not even behind closed doors.
‐‐ Chloe Grace Moretz
As Chomsky says here, clearly and in depth, the American empire is doing all it can to consolidate its system of domination. And we cannot allow them to do that. We cannot allow world dictatorship to be consolidated.
‐‐ Hugo Chavez
As Christians, our compassion is simply a response to the love that God has already shown us.
‐‐ Steven Curtis Chapman
As Christians we need to be patient, understanding, and kind. Instead of going on the attack, we can ask genuine questions. Instead of bristling when our narrative is summarily dismissed, we can carefully explain our way of seeing things. And when we are wrong, we won't be afraid to say so.
‐‐ Kevin DeYoung
As Christians, we worship a victimized Lord. We should expect to suffer and should have particular compassion on those who hurt emotionally and physically. But we do not resemble the Suffering Servant when we take pains to show off our suffering.
‐‐ Kevin DeYoung
As cities have grown rapidly across the nation, many have neglected infrastructure projects and paved over green spaces that once absorbed rainwater.
‐‐ Charles Duhigg
As citizens of a free society, we have a duty to look critically at our world. But if we think we know what is wrong, we must act upon that knowledge.
‐‐ Tony Judt
As citizens of the United States, we are stewards of this magnificent thing called democracy.
‐‐ Marianne Williamson
As citizens of this democracy, you are the rulers and the ruled, the law-givers and the law-abiding, the beginning and the end.
‐‐ Adlai E. Stevenson
As citizens of this great nation, it is kindness, love, and compassion for each other that will bring us together - and keep us together. These are the values Donald and I will bring to the White House.
‐‐ Melania Trump
As citizens, we all have an obligation to intervene and become involved - it's the citizen who changes things.
‐‐ Jose Saramago
As citizens we have to be more thoughtful and more educated and more informed. I turn on the TV and I see these grown people screaming at each other, and I think, well, if we don't get our civility back, we're in trouble.
‐‐ Emmylou Harris
As civilisation advances, the deities lessen in number, the divine powers become concentrated more and more in one Being, and God rules over the whole earth, maketh the clouds his chariot, and reigns above the waterfloods as a king.
‐‐ Annie Besant
As civilization advances, poetry almost necessarily declines.
‐‐ Thomas Babington Macaulay
As cliched as it sounds, if you have an original voice and an original idea, then no matter what anybody says, you have to find a way to tell that story.
‐‐ Damon Lindelof
As CNN saw our growth in African-American viewership, they affirmed a fundamental truth of news coverage - people will watch you if they see themselves in what you report. It doesn't hurt if the people doing the reporting look like them, too.
‐‐ Soledad O'Brien
As co-chair of the Iraqi Women's Caucus in the House, I've enjoyed the opportunity to collaborate with and hear from Iraqi women elected to serve in the new National Assembly.

As coaches say, it's about finding your role. We're coming together as a team.
‐‐ Brock Osweiler
As coaches, we usually have plenty of changes from one year to the next. Sometimes it seems like it's at one position. Sometimes it's across the board. But this is really a part of every year that we have in coaching in the NFL.
‐‐ Josh McDaniels
As comedians, we are all laughing because life is so horrible. Life is so difficult, and I cope with it by making jokes about absolutely everything.
‐‐ Joan Rivers
As comfortable as I was with my adoption, the nature-versus-nurture question has been a big one for me. I adore my parents, but I always wondered if I would feel a different kind of love-not more or less, just different-for someone who was biologically related.
‐‐ Emily Procter
As Commander in Chief of the United States Military, I will never send our sons and daughters and our brothers and sisters to die in a foreign land without telling the truth about why they're going there.
‐‐ Howard Dean
As Commander of the Faithful, it is out of the question that I fight Islam. We need to fight violence and ignorance. It is true, when one strolls out, one sees women with scarves and men with beards. This has always been the case in Morocco. Morocco is built on tolerance.
‐‐ Mohammed VI of Morocco
As commentators like the American psychologist Gary Marcus have noted, it's extremely difficult to teach a computer to recognise cats. And that's not for want of trying.
‐‐ Tom Chatfield
As communicators and marketers, people are so accustomed to thinking from the 'top down.' Finding the great analyst or the famous journalist who will endorse what you do and tell the rest of the world to go and buy your product.
‐‐ Guy Kawasaki
As companies move to web-based computing they get a lot more servers, which are difficult to manage and control. All kinds of problems can arise - security, quality and worms.
‐‐ Ben Horowitz
As competitive as I am, I want to get the best of a play and make sure to use it's full potential even when things break down. But sometimes you need to just say 'uncle' and let it go and avoid a hit.
‐‐ Mark Sanchez
As computer intelligence gets better, what will be possible when we interface our brains with computers? It might sound scary, but early evidence suggests otherwise: interfacing brains with machines can be helpful in treating traumatic brain injury, repairing spinal cord damage, and countless other applications.
‐‐ Bill Maris
As computers have become more powerful, computer graphics have advanced to the point where it's possible to create photo-realistic images. The bottleneck wasn't, 'How do we make pixels prettier?' It was, 'How do we engage with them more?'
‐‐ Jefferson Han
As Congress continues to debate ways to address illegal immigration, we must remember the many hard-working legal immigrants that contribute so much to our nation's economy and culture.
‐‐ Bob Filner
As Congress debates overhauling the nation's health care system, it should not authorize a reform plan that would further our financial woes. We must avoid creating an unsustainable government program. There is no question that reform is needed, but health care can be made more affordable without massive and expensive new bureaucracies.
‐‐ Erik Paulsen
As Congress focuses on comprehensive health care reform, one thing needs to be clear: We cannot fix health care if we do not address America's nursing shortage.
‐‐ Kirsten Gillibrand
As connected as we are with technology, it's also removed us from having to have human connection, made it more convenient to not be intimate.
‐‐ Sandra Bullock
As conservatives, we know our principles, and we also know the best ideas do not always come from Washington.
‐‐ Kevin McCarthy
As consumers and as voters we can say 'no' to rogue economics and demand regulation.
‐‐ Loretta Napoleoni
As consumers, we are faced with hundreds of choices - and when it comes to books, thousands of choices.
‐‐ M. J. Rose
As consumers, we need to demand that companies sell us sustainable products that do not disregard and destroy our natural world.
‐‐ Gisele Bundchen
As contagion of sickness makes sickness, contagion of trust can make trust.
‐‐ Marianne Moore
As contemporary history reminds us we are human to the extent that we are able to chose between alternatives.
‐‐ John G. D. Clark
As cool as I want my kids to be, they're just like any other kid. They don't love eggplant unless it is covered in cheese.
‐‐ Debi Mazar
As corny as it may sound, my true goal was to crack the Americana market.
‐‐ Arthur Godfrey
As corny as it sounds, I'm often pinching myself going, 'What great opportunities and great parts and great people that I've gotten to work with.'
‐‐ Chris Messina
As corollaries to the right of every individual to life and to full participation in society, the Declaration incorporated in the list of human rights the right to work and a certain number of economic, social, and cultural rights.
‐‐ Rene Cassin
As costly as it was in the lives of our men and women in uniform, in military assets, and in esteem and pride, Pearl Harbor was a watershed moment for America.
‐‐ Joe Baca
As costs mount, in lives and dollars, it is natural to second guess, but one lesson I hope we have learned is that the U.S. cannot go it alone in a policy that leaves American troops taking all the risk and American taxpayers paying all of the costs.
