If you're a global company you are going to have jobs overseas. The reality is if we start taxing those jobs at a rate that makes them noncompetitive in those markets, the reality is that we're going to lose business.
Anne M. Mulcahy
Image
When you don't get what you want, it just makes you accept real life.
Bai Ling
Image
Gratitude begins in our hearts and then dovetails into behavior. It almost always makes you willing to be of service, which is where the joy resides.
Anne Lamott
Image
I'm proud of the way I rearrange and put things together, like a chef who makes a great meal, or a filmmaker who puts together a story - it's casting, editing, cinematography.
Bonnie Raitt
Image
Writing makes no noise, except groans, and it can be done everywhere, and it is done alone.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
We can't simply take the way things seem and just work on that, because that would be another kind of mistake thought makes-taking the surface and calling it the reality.
David Bohm
Image
It's incredibly touching when someone who seems so hopeless finds a few inches of light to stand in and makes everything work as well as possible. All of us lurch and fall, sit in the dirt, are helped to our feet, keep moving, feel like idiots, lose our balance, gain it, help others get back on their feet, and keep going.
Anne Lamott
Image
To me the female principle is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
Sometimes one's very angry and preaches, but I know that to clinch a point is to close it. To leave the reader free to decide what your work means, that's the real art it makes the work inexhaustible.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
One way to organize your thoughts is to tidy up, even if it's in places where it makes no sense at all.
Ursus Wehrli
Image
The most awful thing about power is not that it corrupts absolutely but that it makes people so utterly boring, so predictable.
Chinua Achebe
Image
It's important to talk about loving yourself and looking at your tragedies and the stuff that makes you grow.
Anne Heche
Image
The knowledge that every day there is something more to learn, something higher to reach for, something new to make for others, makes each day infinitely precious
Uta Hagen
Image
In my opinion, what makes a great book is something that is universally specific.
Anne Hathaway
Image
I'm happy if my book makes you want to kiss your family... if we can reconcile with each other no matter where we are on the globe.
Uwem Akpan
Image
Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.
Anne Hathaway
Image
Memory does not make films, it makes photographs.
Milan Kundera
Image
One must always try to see the truth of a situation - it makes things universal.
V. S. Naipaul
Image
It is a truism to say that the dog is largely what his master makes of him: he can be savage and dangerous, untrustworthy, cringing and fearful or he can be faithful and loyal, courageous and the best of companions and allies.
Ranulph Fiennes
Image
Surprise makes a joke funny. I love it when someone tells me something I couldn't possibly have expected you've been led along one path and - bang! - the joke comes out of nowhere.
Josie Long
Image
A quiet conscience makes one strong!
Anne Frank
Image
When you're making a real documentary, you shoot it and the movie happens. You don't make - this sounds corny - you don't make a documentary, a documentary makes you. It really does.
Chris Rock
Image
On some summer days in New York City, the air hangs thickly visible, like the combined exhalations of eight million souls. Steam rising from vents underground makes you wonder if there isn't one giant sweat gland lodged beneath the city.
Diane Ackerman
Image
I am not sure one is capable of reflecting absurdity without having a strong sense of meaning. Absurdity makes sense only against a meaningful background. It is the deeper meaning that is shedding light on the absurdity. There must be a vanish point, a metaphysical horizon if you will where absurdity and meaning merge.
Vaclav Havel
