As the world's 'most dynamic' cities seek to manage their own urban growth, American state and local officials have much to offer. Our mayors can share their experiences in urban design, clean energy projects, Smart Grids, codes for energy efficient buildings, transportation safety, and innovative environmental solutions.

As the world's sole remaining super power and economic powerhouses, our nation's ability to be at the forefront of innovation and production has enabled unparalleled economic success of our nation's workforce.

'As the World Turns' was such a great experience and such a great school for me. It was better than any class I could have ever taken.
‐‐ Alexandra Chando
As the writer of a pseudonymous book, I gave up my own accumulated history as a novelist and became what I had been as a child: unnamed, unidentified, unacknowledged. Invisible. In a very real sense, what I hope for in the process of imagining a book is to disappear.

As the writer, you're always a presence in the song. If you get close to what human beings are like, you're writing about common experience. We all do much the same things, so if you nail somebody, then you've also nailed yourself.

As the years go by and I make more films, I am increasingly interested in capturing place as a vivid backdrop for my films.
‐‐ Alexander Payne
As the years go by, I've added a few pounds on, and I like it. I like it that I look a little softer.
‐‐ Victoria Principal
As the years go by, you get to know yourself better and learn what works for you.
‐‐ Marie Helvin
As the years have gone on, I find one of the dangers of watching dailies... is you fall in love with moments.
‐‐ Kevin Spacey
As the years pass, I find that writers who were once central to me aren't anymore. I revered Yeats's poetry in college. I respect it now and am still ravished by certain lines, but I don't go back to him again and again. I do go back to Emily Dickinson again and again.
‐‐ Margo Jefferson
As the years passed, and I was nine, 10, 11 years old, it became obvious I was going to start up a business of some sort.
‐‐ John Caudwell
As the years passed in my village, I witnessed poorly educated young men leaving to seek the greater comforts and liberations of big cities. I would see them on my visits to Delhi.
‐‐ Pankaj Mishra
As the years went by I became a writer and illustrator, although exclusively of fantasies.
‐‐ Chris Van Allsburg
As the years went by, working on Broadway, I started seeing that I had a fan base and that they were mostly young girls. They are looking for someone that they can look up to, that they see as a role model. And I don't take that lightly; it's a big responsibility.

As the younger brother, I think you always have crushes on your older brother's girlfriends.
‐‐ Liam Hemsworth
As the youngest, I wanted to be my father's son and perpetuate the family name.
‐‐ Connie Chung
As the youngest of six kids, I grew up spending summers on Martha's Vineyard, and I was always topless. All the pictures are of me in jean shorts, no shirt - with my brothers, playing football.

As theater artists, it's a great luxury to have time.
‐‐ Jonathan Freeman
As there is oppression of the majority such oppression will be fought with increasing hatred.
‐‐ Bram Fischer
As they come forth, Lord, to sow, release upon them, Father, the power to get, to create, to receive wealth in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

As they grow, companies saturate their markets, become more complex and difficult to manage, and face larger and more entrenched competitors.
‐‐ Alex Berenson
As they marched, the crowds lining the route broke into applause, a sweet and deeply felt spontaneous pattering that was a sort of communal embrace. Welcome home.
‐‐ Lance Morrow
As they say, anything can happen in the World Wrestling Federation.
‐‐ Jerry Lawler
As they say around the Texas Legislature, if you can't drink their whiskey, screw their women, take their money, and vote against 'em anyway, you don't belong in office.
‐‐ Molly Ivins
As they say in Italy, Italians were eating with a knife and fork when the French were still eating each other. The Medici family had to bring their Tuscan cooks up there so they could make something edible.
‐‐ Mario Batali
As they say in the bible, that you're supposed to rejoice when people die and mourn when they're born, because it's one of the most painful acts you go through in life, is being born, and dying.
‐‐ Gregg Allman
As they say, one thing led to another, and, ultimately, the British and Irish governments asked me to serve as chairman of the peace negotiations, which ironically began six years ago this week.
‐‐ George J. Mitchell
As they say, there are two rules in improv: Never say no, and never ask why. When another actor asks 'Why?' or says no to something you're suggesting, then it's very clear that they're putting the onus on you, because they're not comfortable with it themselves.
‐‐ Johnny Galecki
As they work hard for our children, America's teachers often reach into their own pockets to make sure they have the best classroom supplies. I feel strongly that the federal government should help make up for their personal financial burden.
‐‐ John Warner
As things are, and as fundamentally they must always be, poetry is not a career, but a mug's game. No honest poet can ever feel quite sure of the permanent value of what he has written: He may have wasted his time and messed up his life for nothing.
‐‐ T. S. Eliot
As things get worse, poetry gets better because it becomes more necessary.
‐‐ Eileen Myles
As things go digital, the notion of new editions will go away. A publisher can add video and assessment content at scale, make the change in 30 seconds and it's just a software update.
‐‐ Osman Rashid
As things may turn out in the future, people may (though I doubt it) find that their work gives them all the enjoyment - physical, intellectual or aesthetic - which they may require. That certainly is not so now.
‐‐ Louis MacNeice
As this body of knowledge has evolved, a much more critical job for researchers and scientists has evolved into explaining and educating policy makers and the public to the risks of global warming and the possible consequences of action or of no action.
‐‐ John Olver
As this is the first time I have had the floor, it may be well for me now to confess, that I am in the habit of freely imputing errors to my fellow-men.
‐‐ Gerrit Smith
As this long and difficult war ends, I would like to address a few special words to the American people: Your steadfastness in supporting our insistence on peace with honor has made peace with honor possible.
‐‐ Richard M. Nixon
As this world was not intended to be a state of any great satisfaction or high enjoyment, so neither was it intended to be a mere scene of unhappiness and sorrow.
‐‐ Joseph Butler
As though there were a tie And obligation to posterity. We get them, bear them, breed, and nurse: What has posterity done for us. That we, lest they their rights should lose, Should trust our necks to gripe of noose?
‐‐ John Trumbull
As threshing separates the wheat from the chaff, so does affliction purify virtue.
‐‐ Christian Nestell Bovee
As thrilling as it was, speechwriting is ultimately frustrating for someone who wants to be a writer.
‐‐ David Frum
As thy days, so shall thy strength be which, in modern language, may be translated as thy thoughts so shall thy life be.
‐‐ Emmet Fox
As time goes by and you're getting older and stuff like that - getting older sucks. You know, I hear all this crap about, 'Oh, you can age with dignity.' Really?
‐‐ Mickey Rourke
As time goes by, I realize that I do trust the wind. And I often write my songs for myself.
‐‐ David Friedman
As time goes by people will see who I am for who I am.
‐‐ Justin Timberlake
As time goes by the memories of sitting on the edge of a bed and reading aloud with your kid are going to be very meaningful in your own mental scrapbook.
‐‐ Gary Ross
As time goes on, all schools only get left alive if they have found something special themselves.
‐‐ Ninette de Valois
As time goes on, I realize more and more that, beginning in the early 30's, David Smith began setting the precedent for what was to come later for many of us.
‐‐ Kenneth Noland
As time goes on we get closer to that American Dream of there being a pie cut up and shared. Usually greed and selfishness prevent that and there is always one bad apple in every barrel.
‐‐ Rick Danko
As time goes on you're getting more knowledge of your playbook and football, and you just pick it up a lot easier. Lining up everywhere is just second nature to me now.
