Pollock was well known, certainly, but for all the wrong reasons. He was known as much for being wild and unconventional in his working methods as for being a great artist.

Polls are frequently taken to try to tease out or determine likely directions and trends, but once taken, they belong to the past, requiring that new polls be taken.
‐‐ Alan Dundes
Polls are inaccurate in my opinion, based upon anecdotal evidence, based upon people that I know.
‐‐ Herman Cain
Polls can change; people's opinions can change. Voting intentions can change, and I think it would be a silly leader, a silly political party, that would assume that we have it sewn up.
‐‐ Nicola Sturgeon
Polls? Nah... they're for strippers and cross country skiers.
‐‐ Sarah Palin
Polls that have been taken by kindergarten, first- and second-grade teachers indicate that 30 percent of the kids have been deprived in some way so that they are physically unable to keep up with the class.

Pollution from human activities is changing the Earth's climate. We see the damage that a disrupted climate can do: on our coasts, our farms, forests, mountains, and cities. Those impacts will grow more severe unless we start reducing global warming pollution now.
‐‐ Frances Beinecke
Pollution from oil and gas development, toxic runoff, and miles and miles of plastic trash foul the waters and threaten marine life.
‐‐ Frances Beinecke
Pollution is a serious one. Water pollution, air pollution, and then solid hazardous waste pollution. And then beyond that, we also have the resources issue. Not just water resources but other natural resources, the mining resources being consumed, and the destruction of our ecosystem.
‐‐ Ma Jun
Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value.

Polo drifts gently in and out of fashion.
‐‐ Kate Reardon
Polo is a great thing to do with your kids and your family - it is a great day out. And to me, horses are amazing creatures that give you this cable to Earth and put you in contact with nature.
‐‐ Nacho Figueras
Polo is like playing golf with a saddle, and there are a lot of moving parts.
‐‐ Joel Edgerton
Polo is the most inviting sport I've ever seen.
‐‐ Nacho Figueras
Polo really is a European sport. It's not really that popular in America. I'm not an expert on the sport, but it's fun to watch.

Polonium is, frankly, pretty useless, and no country in the world except Russia bothered to refine it by the late 2000s.

'Poltergeist' was really the film that really scarred but fascinated me with puppets and dolls, clowns, and stuff like that. I've always been afraid of clowns, and then my fear of puppets came around, and 'Poltergeist' was the perfect combination to scare me with a clown doll.
‐‐ James Wan
'Poltergeist' was the film that scarred me for life. I saw it at such a young age - 5 or 6 years old - and it has one of the creepiest doll sequences with the clown, and ever since then, I've just been fascinated by dolls.

Polygraph tests are 20th-century witchcraft.
‐‐ Sam Ervin
Polygraphs are not allowed as evidence in most U.S. courts, but they're routinely used in police investigations, and the Defense Department relies heavily on them for security screening.
‐‐ Bill Dedman
Polygraphs have sparked a fierce debate for at least a century.

Polymer chemistry provides an excellent means of studying metathesis catalysts: miniscule catalyst loadings have the capacity to generate large amounts of polymeric material, the structure of which can provide a historical record of catalyst activity.
‐‐ Robert H. Grubbs
Polymer synthesis in the 1950s was dominated by Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta, whose discoveries of polymerization catalysts were of great importance for the development of the modem 'plastics' industry.
‐‐ Alan J. Heeger
Polymeric materials in the form of wood, bone, skin and fibers have been used by man since prehistoric time. Although organic chemistry as a science dates back to the eighteenth century, polymer science on a molecular basis is a development of the twentieth century.

Polynesian women are known for their long hair, glowing skin, and thick nails. And that comes from the local diet, which is mostly plant based with a little bit of fish and a lot of natural fats and oils.

'Polytechnique' changed everything in my way of working. I became an adult, really, during those five years. I didn't work on anything else but 'Polytechnique.'
‐‐ Karine Vanasse
Polytechnique is a school whose multidisciplinary, very high scientific level curriculum is invaluable.

Pomegranate juice has staying power. It's not a fad. Once people have tasted POM Wonderful, they say they are addicted - and it's a good addiction to have.
‐‐ Lynda Resnick
Pomegranate molasses is ubiquitous in Arabic cooking: it's sweet, sour and adds depth.
‐‐ Yotam Ottolenghi
'Pomegranate,' started with my imagining a bullet going through the fruit and causing it to bleed. My initial associations were with pomegranates in old masters painting and their Judeo-Christian symbolism.

Pond scum stinks. And so do the Obama administration's enormous, taxpayer-funded 'investments' in politically connected biofuel companies.

Pondering, which means to weigh mentally, to deliberate, to meditate, can achieve the opening of the spiritual eyes of one's understanding.

'Pong' hit the fancy. It was sort of the perfect storm of a game which has two players highly social, a game that women could play better than a guy, and sort of an acceptance of this social nature of games in a bar.

Pontius Pilate was the first great censor and Jesus Christ the first great victim of censorship.

Pool is a fascinating game, but there is always the added factor of the money that really makes it hot.
‐‐ George Miller
Pool swimmers are very slim, and they're stronger. Marathon swimmers have to train an awful lot, and they end up losing a bit of muscle mass. So we need to have a bit more fat, though that's not the case with me. Many swimmers have a little bit of extra fat though, so that they can deal with the cold and get through what is an exhausting event.

Pools have their own uniqueness, design and engineering to depict culture, history or innovation.

Poop humor is fun. If you do the toilet scenes well and commit to them, they can be really, really powerful.

Pooper scooper? Yeah, I've done it a few times. Every once in a while, you have to.

Poor air quality, which can be influenced by a variety of fumes, chemicals and allergens, is arguably the leading cause of triggers for most asthmatics in urban areas.

Poor Andy Nave was killed. He refused to surrender and was shot by Dick Fields. I felt sorry as he used to be quite friendly towards me before the war, but it could not be helped.

Poor but happy is not a phrase invented by a poor person.

Poor countries are poor because they are wasting their resources.

Poor, darling fellow - he died of food. He was killed by the dinner table.

Poor David Hume is dying fast, but with more real cheerfulness and good humor and with more real resignation to the necessary course of things, than any whining Christian ever dyed with pretended resignation to the will of God.

Poor eating habits developed at an early age lead to a lifetime of real health consequences.
