I have something to say. I know how to do something. I’m doing it. If you want me to do it with you, raise your hand.
Seth Godin

If you've got the power to raise prices without losing business to a competitor, you've got a very good business. And if you have to have a prayer session before raising the price by a tenth of a cent, then you've got a terrible business. I've been in both, and I know the difference.
Warren Buffett

The Jews' guilt of the crucifixion of Jesus consigned them to perpetual servitude, and, like Cain, they are to be wanderers and fugitives. The Jews will not dare to raise their necks, bowed under the yoke of perpetual slavery, against the reverence of the Christian faith.
Pope Innocent III
Image
That raises a terrible question. How is it that people who are quite obviously eaten up with Pride can say they believe in God and appear to themselves very religious? I am afraid it means they are worshiping an imaginary God.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Women are leaders everywhere you look - from the CEO who runs a Fortune 500 company to the housewife who raises her children and heads her household. Our country was built by strong women and we will continue to break down walls and defy stereotypes.
Nancy Pelosi
Image
One hundred thousand dollars was the bridge that enabled me to go on TV, not miss a beat or miss an opportunity, and raise then my own money to carry me forth. And that's how I got to be the first Democratic woman in the United States Senate's history.
Barbara Mikulski
Image
I shall last a year, and but little longer: we must think to do good work in that year. Four things are laid upon me: to drive out the English to bring you to be crowned and anointed at Reims to rescue the Duke of Orléans from the hands of the English and to raise the siege of Orléans.
Joan of Arc

I guess the biggest issue my husband and I are going to have is how do we raise the baby... because he's Jewish and I'm Protestant and the baby's father is Catholic.
Bonnie McFarlane
Image
The end of lower art is to please, the end of average art is to raise the top, the end of superior art is to free.
Fernando Pessoa
Image
Fortune may raise up or abuse the ordinary mortal, but the sage and the soldier should have minds beyond her control.
Walter Scott
Image
You want to raise your child in such a way that you don't have to control him, so that he will be in full possession of himself at all times. Upon that depends his good behavior, his health, his sanity.
L. Ron Hubbard
Image
The president doesn't get an automatic pay raise, so they can't freeze it for him. But it also does extend the pay rate - they pay increases or pay freeze for pay increases for members of Congress. They've had a pay freeze since 2009, but most civil servants will see a small pay bump in 2016 thanks to a separate order from President Obama.
Susan Davis

The purpose of thinking about the future is not to predict it but to raise people's hopes.
Freeman Dyson
Image
The spirit world speaks to us through the heart. The more we open our hearts and raise our own vibrations, the easier the connection.
Suzanne Giesemann

We are all used to paying a sales tax when we buy things - almost 9 percent here in New York City. The application of this concept to the financial sector could solve our need for revenue, bring some sanity back into the financial sector, and give us a way to raise the revenue we need to run the government in a fiscally responsible way.
Eliot Spitzer
Image
If you're the band leader you ask more of yourself than anyone else, so they tend to raise the bar for me.
Kristin Hersh
Image
Are we going to take the hands of the federal government completely off any effort to adjust the growing of national crops, and go right straight back to the old principle that every farmer is a lord of his own farm and can do anything he wants, raise anything, any old time, in any quantity, and sell any time he wants?
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Image
Were the walls of our meat industry to become transparent, literally or even figuratively, we would not long continue to raise, kill, and eat animals the way we do.
Michael Pollan
Image
In the mythic tradition, the Mountain is the bond between Earth and Sky. Its solitary summit reaches the sphere of eternity, and its base spreads out in manifold foothills into the world of mortals. It is the way by which man can raise himself to the divine and by which the divine can reveal itself to man.
Rene Daumal
Image
Where you find obesity, you'll find poverty. It's a reflection of the South's struggle to raise its standard of living.
William R. Ferris
Image
The Globe reports that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il raises money by selling fake Viagra pills. What it is about this guy? None of his missiles seem to launch.
Jay Leno
Image
When someone offends you, you can raise your spirits to heights where offenses cannot reach.
Anthony de Mello
Image
I'm not a role model... Just because I dunk a basketball doesn't mean I should raise your kids.
Charles Barkley
Image
I do think it's getting more and more rare in this country to raise a kid with the attitude that creativity is something valuable. The idea of trying to make the effort to produce something, to put something out into the world, rather than just taking in all the stuff the world's putting out at you.
