Even though many couples are choosing to marry later in life, our laws haven't been updated to address dating partner abuse.

Even though many Indians can read or speak English, for most, it is not their first language. At the office, we speak in English, but we consume our culture in our own language.
‐‐ Amish Tripathi
Even though marriage is doomed, if you turned it into a job you like and really work at it - it can be salvaged.
‐‐ Al Goldstein
Even though momentarily I thought about being a doctor, I was always involved in theatre and did a drama degree. I just didn't have the guts to go, 'Yes, I'm going to be an actor,' until I was probably 21.
‐‐ Elliot Cowan
Even though money seems such an objective topic, it can also be the most intimate, and possibly harmful, part of a relationship.
‐‐ Christie Hefner
Even though most people won't be directly involved with programming, everyone is affected by computers, so an educated person should have a good understanding of how computer hardware, software, and networks operate.
‐‐ Brian Kernighan
Even though mother's issues are not front page news, they touch us all personally, some more than others, and I believe passionately in the power of grassroots engagement.
‐‐ Joan Blades
Even though music is something I travel around doing, it is also a very private thing. A sort of escapism.
‐‐ Agnes Obel
Even though my brother and I loved scrumping - we loved the act of climbing trees and grabbing fruit - there was always fear we would be caught. We feared we'd be imprisoned, sent to Australia.
‐‐ Jim Crace
Even though my father was a radio comedian, it wasn't cool to say, at a young age, 'I want to be a comedian.'
‐‐ Albert Brooks
Even though my first marriage broke up, I'd say that I've had two good marriages and two good men. I've been very lucky. I like to think it's karma because, in a relationship, I give 300 per cent. I'm straight with my men, and I like to think it comes back.

Even though my grandparents live overseas and are so far away and we talk as much as we can, we don't see each other that often.
‐‐ Nina Dobrev
Even though my mom herself was anxious, I think she didn't know how to deal with it in her kid, and my dad just had no conception of what this was about, and sort of didn't even want to acknowledge it.
‐‐ Scott Stossel
Even though my shoes are different from Ferragamo's aesthetic, which is more classic, I learned the importance of fit and quality. We were making shoes like they used to, by hand, and I carried that with me.
‐‐ Edgardo Osorio
Even though my songs may sound very personal, to me most of them are fiction. It is a great way for me to be able to live a fantasy life as a writer because I get to be someone else, someplace else for three and a half minutes, just like the listener.
‐‐ Nanci Griffith
Even though my work is whimsical. I have a very serious job. I cry more than I laugh.
‐‐ Richard Simmons
Even though my work life is very intense, I make a conscious effort to be healthy.
‐‐ Jessica Scorpio
Even though NASA tries to simulate launch, and we practice in simulators, it's not the same - it's not even close to the same.
‐‐ Sally Ride
Even though New York may be a more inspiring city, I get more inspired thinking of L.A., in a way. My life there was so much more simple in mind, and quiet.
‐‐ Aleksa Palladino
Even though no one admits it, writers are leaders in their communities.
‐‐ Pramoedya Ananta Toer
Even though now I'm pretty popular in my country and tennis is the No. 1 sport, and I'm very flattered that the people recognise me and come up and give me compliments, I'm more a person who likes to have privacy and peace.
‐‐ Novak Djokovic
Even though other people wrote my songs I put my stamp on them. I have a connection, but there is no truer connection than an artists and their own song.
‐‐ Justin Guarini
Even though people are under economic pressure, they still want to support those brands with values that are compatible with their own.
‐‐ Howard Schultz
Even though people involved in racing think that it has a big sporting stage, it is a minority sport compared to some of the other high-profile events: football, Formula One or golf.
‐‐ Tony McCoy
Even though people may be well known, they hold in their hearts the emotions of a simple person for the moments that are the most important of those we know on earth: birth, marriage and death.
‐‐ Jackie Kennedy
Even though people pretend that medical records are privileged information, anyone can already get their hands on them.
‐‐ Craig Venter
Even though people say Richard Harris and I have been having a great feud, it's not true.
‐‐ Oliver Reed
Even though people spend more of their waking hours at work than anywhere else, people underestimate how work influences their overall wellbeing and daily experience.
‐‐ Tom Rath
Even though photographers are only shooting the outside, beauty is more about who you are as a person - the life you lead - not your facade.
‐‐ Nigel Barker
Even though professional soccer has become more about business and less about the game itself, I still believe football is a party for the legs that play it and for the eyes that watch it.
‐‐ Eduardo Galeano
Even though Raster Blaster was only a video game, I was learning about designing stuff. I got good at drawing.
‐‐ Bill Budge
Even though reality TV is very manipulated, it's all manipulated so that something real happens. And so, our job in this era is to make that real thing happen, because nobody wants to see any more manipulated, pre-planned performances. That era is over.
‐‐ Josh Pais
Even though running is physically straining, it's mentally refreshing. Especially when you feel like you've accomplished something.
‐‐ Biz Stone
Even though Rush is not me and the situations were very different, I think, in the Rush Limbaugh thing, ESPN was criticized for not acting, and you remember that after a couple days of controversy over Rush.
‐‐ Gregg Easterbrook
Even though some in our government may claim that civil liberties must be compromised in order to protect the public, we must be wary of what we are giving up in the name of fighting terrorism.
‐‐ Lucille Roybal-Allard
Even though some of the films I've made haven't been particularly commercial, I don't find them failures.
‐‐ Don Johnson
Even though the album is an endangered species, can we try and make a coherent and good one, even if it's like making a horse and cart at a Nascar conference?
‐‐ Chris Martin
Even though the Bush campaign ad tells you that Afghanistan is a new democracy at the Olympics because of Bush's efforts, Afghanistan hasn't actually had an election.
‐‐ Peter Schuyler
Even though the Clintons started mass incarceration, which my brother is a victim of, things are going to change, though. Somebody made them do that.
‐‐ Ty Dolla Sign
Even though the future seems far away, it is actually beginning right now.
‐‐ Mattie Stepanek
Even though the Internet touches every part of our lives, one person is to blame for potentially destroying its potential for innovation and freedom of expression: former FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski.
‐‐ Marvin Ammori
Even though the Koch brothers' businesses put 4.4 million people at risk with pollutants, the Kochs have poured millions into lobbyists' coffers and political contributions to ensure their bottom line stays unchanged by the most basic safety precaution.
‐‐ Robert Greenwald
Even though the method of 'Harvest' was a historical novel, its intentions were that of a modern novel. I'm asking you to think about land being seized in Brazil by soya barons. It's also a novel about immigration.
‐‐ Jim Crace
Even though the money is great and the fame is great, you still have a lot of disenfranchised young men that are participating in the NFL that are not very happy. A lot of them are very bitter. A lot them are very angry. So many of them have had no fathers and no home life, and basically, no education.
‐‐ Jim Brown
Even though the museums guarding their precious property fence everything off, in my own studio, I made them so you and I could walk in and around, and among these sculptures.
‐‐ George Segal
Even though the music I make gathers influences from all over the place, I feel that the core of what I do comes from the jazz tradition. In terms of improvisation, interaction, feel and overall concept, Jazz is my main source of information and inspiration.
‐‐ Miguel Zenon
Even though the National Guard and Army Reserve see combat today, it rankles me that people assume it was some kind of waltz in the park back then.
‐‐ Larry David
Even though the neighborhood I grew up in had some unhealthy elements, there was a caring there where you knew that you didn't want to get caught doing something wrong. There were bright spots in the neighborhood where I felt nurtured on a community level.
‐‐ Sonja Sohn
Even though the outcome wasn't the way it should have been, publicly I still feel in my heart I won the Sugar Ray Leonard fight.
