In government you carry each hope; each disillusion. And in politics it's always about the next challenge.

In grade school, I was a complete geek. You know, there's always the kid who's too short, the kid who wears glasses, the kid who's not athletic. Well, I was all three.
‐‐ Julianne Moore
In grade school I was smart, but I didn't have any friends. In high school, I quit being smart and started having friends.
‐‐ David Spade
In grade school I was taught that the United States is a melting pot. People from all over the world come here for freedom and to pursue a better life. They arrive with next to nothing, work incredibly hard, learn a new language and new customs, and in a generation they become an integral part of our amazing nation.

In graduate school, Aubrey Berg at the Cincinnati Conservatory gave me the chance to perform with the best in the country in Broadway caliber productions.

In graduate school, I decide to write my doctoral thesis on how Italian architecture influenced English playwrights of the seventeenth century. I wonder why certain playwrights decided to set their tragedies, written in English, in Italian palaces.

In graduate school, I was a student of E.L. Doctorow, and he had us read 'Moby-Dick' in a week.
‐‐ Garth Risk Hallberg
In grammar school I read 'Act One' by Moss Hart, and being a playwright struck me as the most magical and romantic career anyone could have... But I never did write a play.
‐‐ Alice McDermott
In 'Gran Torino,' I play a guy who's racially offensive. But he learned. It shows that you're never too old to learn and embrace people that you don't understand to begin with. It seems like nobody else got that message, I guess.
‐‐ Clint Eastwood
In 'Gravity,' nearly everything is a metaphor for the main character. The way I tend to approach a film is that character and background are equally important; one informs the other. Here, Sandra Bullock is caught between Earth and the void of the universe, just floating there in between. We use the debris as a metaphor for adversity.

In Great Britain the price of food is at a higher level than in any other country, and consequently, the British artisan labours at a disadvantage in proportion to the higher rate of his food.

In great contests each party claims to act in accordance with the will of God. Both may be, and one must be wrong.

In Greece, Italy and, to a lesser extent, France, unsustainable tax cuts and spending sprees added to households' estimates of their private wealth relative to their wage income.

In Greece wise men speak and fools decide.

In Greek mythology, Cassandra was given the gift of prophecy, except - due to her rejection of Apollo's affections - nobody would ever believe her warnings.
‐‐ Kara Swisher
In Greek mythology, the hero wants to be great, but the very concept does not exist in the Indian vocabulary. Yet it has become the global template. And it's a template that won't fit in India.

In greenside bunkers, the big thing is to adapt your stance to the shot. It's rare that you get a flat lie in the sand, so I make sure to align my body to the slope. Then I blast the ball out by splashing the sand underneath it.
‐‐ Jordan Spieth
In Greenville, we were blessed to have lots of youth arts programs. I changed middle schools to go to an arts middle school. Then, when high school came, I went to normal high school for a little while before auditioning for the Governor's School for Arts and Humanities.

In grief, after even the happiest of relationships, we go over things again and again.
‐‐ Laurie Graham
In group lesson number six I think we learned how to turn backwards and then just kind of wiggle. That wasn't really skating backward, but I guess I was going in the right direction.
‐‐ Dorothy Hamill
In 'Growing Stronger,' I expose my most painful moments and open my heart, thoughts and person, so that my experiences can inspire alleviation, consolation and decisiveness.
‐‐ Thalia
In grownups, mercury can cause memory loss, tremors, vision loss and numbness of the fingers and toes. It can also adversely affect fertility and blood pressure regulation, and a growing body of evidence suggests that exposure to mercury may lead to heart disease.
‐‐ Frances Beinecke
In 'Guild Wars 2,' the dragons are the greatest threat, but there's so much more going on. It's a living world; it's a dynamic world. There are places where you find your piece of earth, and you can develop and play with it.
‐‐ Jeff Grubb
In Gujarat, we had the world record of largest number of chess games in a single venue - 20,500 - and in Tamil Nadu, I have been emphasizing on the positives of chess to the authorities.
‐‐ Viswanathan Anand
In gymnastics, everything is a competition. You want to have your hair look the best and your makeup look the best. You want to be the best, and you want to have the prettiest leotard.
‐‐ McKayla Maroney
In gymnastics, smaller will always be better in many ways. The stress in the head, that will be the same for all. But the stress on the body and the concussions it must endure, that will always be easier for the little ones.
‐‐ Bela Karolyi
In gymnastics, the longest routine you do is a minute and a half, and that's pretty tough to get through.
‐‐ Shannon Miller
In gymnastics, you have to be perfect every step along the way.

In Haiti, as I understand it, storytelling and history itself are not a business of necessarily elucidating facts or the truth of an incident, but finding the version that is most entertaining and therefore will get retold and live in immortality.
‐‐ John Edgar Wideman
In Haiti, beach bodies are simply bodies, and beach reads are simply books, because the beach is all around you.
‐‐ Roxane Gay
In Haiti, it - people seemed - in my experience in Haiti, people are so open to photographs and journalism. And there doesn't seem to be the same sort of restrictions or wariness about the press that you would experience in Washington, for instance, on many levels.
‐‐ Carol Guzy
In Haiti you had the Duvaliers for 29 years and they were very well supported by the United States.
‐‐ Edwidge Danticat
In Halloween, I viewed the characters as simply normal teenagers. Laurie, Jamie Lee's character, was shy and somewhat repressed. And Michael Myers, the killer, is definitely repressed. They have certain similarities.
‐‐ John Carpenter
In Hamburg, there are three major orchestras, an opera house, and one of the great concert-hall acoustics in Europe at the Laeiszhalle, in a town a fifth the size of London. And that's not unusual. In Germany, there are dozens of towns with two or three orchestras. The connection with music goes very, very deep.
‐‐ Jeffrey Tate
In 'Hamilton,' we're telling the stories of old, dead white men, but we're using actors of color, and that makes the story more immediate and more accessible to a contemporary audience.
‐‐ Lin-Manuel Miranda
In Hanover Park they highlighted the terrible plight of backyard dwellers and the fact that year after year nothing has been done to help you: the hope and despair you all live with every day.
‐‐ Mangosuthu Buthelezi
In 'Happier at Home,' I write a lot about my struggle to create an unhurried atmosphere at home.
‐‐ Gretchen Rubin
In hard-core science fiction in which characters are responding to a change in environment, caused by nature or the universe or technology, what readers want to see is how people cope, and so the character are present to cope, or fail to cope.
‐‐ James Gunn
In 'Hardflip,' you have a relationship where the father and son haven't seen each other in 18 years, but they find they're very alike: pigheaded, stubborn, passionate. It's a wonderful story of how you can't get away from how similar you and your children are.
‐‐ John Schneider
In Harlem, I got all my black friends. But when I go downtown, I got black, white, Asian, Indian friends. There's no borders, no barriers.

In Harvest of Stars, there is this notion, not original with me of course, that it will become possible to download at least the basic aspects of a human personality into a machine program.
‐‐ Poul Anderson
In hatred as in love, we grow like the thing we brood upon. What we loathe, we graft into our very soul.

In Hawaii, some of the biggest radio stations are reggae. The local bands are heavily influenced by Bob Marley.
‐‐ Bruno Mars
In Hawaii, we go to this wonderful place, all families. My wife and I go directly from breakfast to a beach chair where we read all day. My daughter goes from water to pool to running around with friends she meets, some of whom are regulars there.
‐‐ Stephen Collins
In Hawaii, we have something called Ho'oponopono, where people come together to resolve crises and restore peace and balance.
‐‐ Duane Chapman
In 'Healing the Soul of America,' I wrote about Gandhi's notion of soul force in politics and why it matters to stand on your truth.

In health care, the biggest imperative is: Fix those who cannot get insurance without changing the world for everyone else.

In health care today, we spend most of the dollars - in terms of treating disease - in the last two years of a person's life.

In health there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties.
