Today, we live in a time of threats like few others in recent memory. During anxious times, it can be tempting to follow the siren call of the angriest voices. We must resist that temptation. No one who is willing to work hard, abide by our laws, and love our traditions should ever feel unwelcome in this country.
‐‐ Nikki Haley
Today we must make a pact with each other to end this reckless conduct with the people's government.
‐‐ Chris Christie
Today we no longer regard the universe as the cause of our own undeserved troubles but perhaps, on the contrary, as the last refuge from the mismanagement of our earthly affairs.
‐‐ Rudolf Arnheim
Today we often think that before we start living a religious life we have first to accept the creedal doctrines and that before one can have any comprehension of the loyalty and trust of faith, one must first force one's mind to accept a host of incomprehensible doctrines. But this is to put the cart before the horse.
‐‐ Karen Armstrong
Today we ought to be able to see first that Booker T. Washington faced a situation in which he was seeking desperately for a way out, and he could see no way out except capitulation.
‐‐ C. L. R. James
Today we're dealing with metropolitan Shanghai, metropolitan New Delhi or Paris. If we're competing at that level, our diversity, that richness of people coming from so many different backgrounds, is one of our greatest advantages.
‐‐ John Hickenlooper
Today we're dumping 70 million tons of global-warming pollution into the environment, and tomorrow we will dump more, and there is no effective worldwide response. Until we start sharply reducing global-warming pollution, I will feel that I have failed.
‐‐ Al Gore
Today we're faced with over 500 casualties, a cost of over $200 billion. And it could rise - the casualties could go into thousands and the cost could go over half a trillion - if we stay there for years.
‐‐ Dennis Kucinich
Today we're focused on small acquisitions to add technology where necessary. I think it's fair to say we're not out looking for a large one, but I think it's also very fair to say that as a public company you can never say never.
‐‐ Sanjay Kumar
Today we're just growing and consuming, and I think maybe there's a sadness in that. People are longing for a time when there was a black and white and good and bad.
‐‐ Gore Verbinski
Today, we're very dependent on cheap energy. We just take it for granted - all the things you have in the house, the way industry works.
‐‐ Jeff Goodell
Today we read books 'extensively,' often without sustained focus, and with rare exceptions we read each book only once. We value quantity of reading over quality of reading. We have no choice, if we want to keep up with the broader culture.
‐‐ Joshua Foer
Today, we realize there are those actively seeking to harm us, to destroy our infrastructure and take lives.
‐‐ Dave Reichert
Today we say that the law of relativity is supposed to be true at all energies, but someday somebody may come along and say how stupid we were.
‐‐ Richard P. Feynman
Today, we say the only thing we have to fear is four more years of George Bush.
‐‐ Edward Kennedy
Today we see a human population of over 6 billion people, many of whom have serious medical conditions, which either can't be treated or cannot be treated economically.
‐‐ Ralph Merkle
Today, we stand as a united country and are much closer to the ideals set forth in our Constitution that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
‐‐ Jim Ryun
Today we stand on a bridge leading from the territorial state to the world community. Politically, we are still governed by the concept of the territorial state; economically and technically, we live under the auspices of worldwide communications and worldwide markets.
‐‐ Christian Lous Lange
Today we take it for granted that war happens in smaller, poorer and more backward countries.
‐‐ Steven Pinker
Today we take New England clam chowder as something traditional that makes our roots as American cooking very solid, with a lot of foundation. But the first person who decided to mix potatoes and clams and bacon and cream, in his own way 100 to 200 years ago, was a modernist.
‐‐ Jose Andres
Today, we talk a lot about terrorism, but we rarely talk about state terrorism.
‐‐ Bianca Jagger
Today we thank God for all the blessings He has bestowed upon this great Country and ask Him to continue to heal our land and meet our needs - and we do so through the power of prayer.
‐‐ Nick Rahall
Today we voted as Democrats and Republicans. Tomorrow we begin again as New Yorkers.
‐‐ Hillary Clinton
Today, Web services is really about developing for the server. What it means to developers is any set of systems services that you make a Web service you to access by any kind of device with a highly interactive client, not just a browser.
‐‐ John Fowler
Today what is more important for me is performance. At the risk of sounding immodest, I have done it all - 61 movies over 12 years. But now I am looking for quality. It's easy to be a star. Now I want to be an actress.
‐‐ Karisma Kapoor
Today, when I hire, I look for people who want to be trained and molded.
‐‐ Bobby Flay
Today when I think about diversity, I actually think about the word 'inclusion.' And I think this is a time of great inclusion. It's not men, it's not women alone. Whether it's geographic, it's approach, it's your style, it's your way of learning, the way you want to contribute, it's your age - it is really broad.
‐‐ Ginni Rometty
Today when we say the West we are already referring to the West and to Russia. We could use the word 'modernity' if we exclude Africa, and the Islamic world, and partially China.
‐‐ Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Today, when you look at social media, you see that the narrative can be overtaken by people just from Twitter and Instagram. I know when Ferguson was going down those first few nights, I was watching feeds on the ground on Twitter, not CNN.
‐‐ Ava DuVernay
Today, when you're marketing a brand, you can't try to appeal to everybody. You should speak to a group of people and create them as loyalists.
‐‐ Barry Sternlicht
Today, with a recording, he can hear the thing enough times until he really gets acquainted with the language, and then he can begin to make an estimate of the intrinsic, aesthetic value of that piece of music.
‐‐ Leo Ornstein
Today, writers want to impress other writers.
‐‐ Paulo Coelho
Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
‐‐ Dr. Seuss
Today you can go to a gas station and find the cash register open and the toilets locked. They must think toilet paper is worth more than money.
‐‐ Joey Bishop
Today you can start a blog, build an audience, and give the advertising slots to AdBrite or Google AdSense.
‐‐ Jason Calacanis
Today you can't go by the titles of the shows to know what the content of the show may be.
‐‐ Donna Douglas
Today, you expand or you are expendable.
‐‐ Les Brown
Today, you have 100% of your life left.
‐‐ Tom Landry
Today, you have neuroscientists working on a genetic, behavioural or cognitive level, and then you have informaticians, chemists and mathematicians. They all have their own understanding of how the brain functions and is structured. How do you get them all around the same table?
‐‐ Henry Markram
Today you have something like A Film by Joe Harry. That is patently asinine and ridiculous.
‐‐ Elmer Bernstein
Today, you're either very big or you're playing stadiums or you're not playing anymore. You're either popular where everybody will go to a 20,000 seat arena to see you or they won't go to see you at all.
‐‐ Bobby Vinton
Todd and I have a very complementary working style .
‐‐ Sam Wood
Todd Palin's frequent presence in the governor's office led some in Juneau to call him the 'Shadow Governor.' But it had never been clear, at least to the public, what roles he played.
‐‐ Bill Dedman
Todd Rundgren is a genius, and I don't use that word a lot.
‐‐ Jim Steinman
Todd Solondz is one of my favorite directors.
‐‐ Eric Wareheim
Toddlers need to get off the soccer field and onto the playground. Children need to get out of the gym and into neighborhood stickball games. We need to give kids room to create their own rules, set their own terms, and move their bodies in their own ways.
‐‐ Darell Hammond
Toeing the starting line of a marathon, regardless of the language you speak, the God you worship or the color of your skin, we all stand as equal. Perhaps the world would be a better place if more people ran.
‐‐ Dean Karnazes
Toffee Crisp was my downfall. I once ate five at a sitting. Do you really need that third helping, Harry? My parents didn't overfeed me, nor did they make an issue of it. That's when things go wrong. It doesn't have to be a problem for children to be fat, but it does affect you: you aren't as happy in that skin.
‐‐ Harry Melling
Tofu hot dogs are actually scarier than real hot dogs. It's like wanting the worst possible meat product without even the thrill of it actually being meat.
