Adequate early rest is best....Early to bed and early to rise is still good counsel.
Ezra Taft Benson
Image
Adequate defense has been the catchword of every militarist for centuries.
Frank B. Kellogg
Image
The moral and social aspiration proper to American life is, of course, the aspiration vaguely described by the word democratic and the actual achievement of the American nation points towards an adequate and fruitful definition of the democratic ideal.
Herbert Croly
Image
In an adequate social order, the untalented should be able to acquire a sense of usefulness and of growth without interfering with the development of talent around them
Eric Hoffer
Image
This was my prayer: an adequate portion of land with a garden and a spring of water and a small wood to complete the picture.
Horace
Image
The natural object is always the adequate symbol.
Ezra Pound
Image
Have you been holding back from a risky, costly course to which you know in your heart God has called you? Hold back no longer. Your God is faithful to you, and adequate for you. You will never need more than He can supply, and what He supplies, both materially and spiritually, will always be enough for the present.
J. I. Packer
Image
We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism.
J. Robert Oppenheimer
Image
I say we must have a movement that brings those troops home and launch a crusade to transform our school buildings, we launch a crusade to see to it that every citizen has adequate and affordable housing, we launch a crusade to make universal health care. We need not soldiers anymore in the world. We've had enough of them in western history.
James Lawson

Solitude, I reflected, is the one deep necessity of the human spirit to which adequate recognition is never given in our codes. It is looked upon as a discipline or penance, but hardly ever as the indispensable, pleasant ingredient it is to ordinary life, and from this want of recognition come half our domestic troubles.
Freya Stark
Image
We do not see the danger clearly enough that we develop images adequate to our state of civilization. When you watch TV, you know instantly that there's something wrong with the images. When you open a magazine and see the ads, you know there's something wrong with the images. And it's unhealthy and not good and outright dangerous, in my opinion.
Werner Herzog
Image
Duct tape is not a perfect solution to anything. But with a little creativity, in a pinch, it's an adequate solution to just about everything.
Jamie Hyneman
Image
There must ... be in our very nature a very radical and widespread tendency to observe beauty, and to value it. No account of the principles of the mind can be at all adequate that passes over so conspicuous a faculty.
George Santayana
Image
... the forces of power, particularly corporate power, are impatient with what is adequate for a coherent community. Because power gains so little from community in the short run, it does not hesitate to destroy community for the long run.
Wes Jackson
Image
Failing to provide children adequate access to nutritious food not only endangers their emotional, physical and mental development, but it also puts all aspects of their future well-being at risk. The costs are too high when you short-change children.
Jane Bown
Image
My observation is that whenever one person is found adequate to the discharge of a duty... it is worse executed by two persons, and scarcely done at all if three or more are employed therein.
George Washington
Image
I am not against hasty marriages where a mutual flame is fanned by an adequate income.
Wilkie Collins
Image
In social media marketing, average is no longer adequate.
Jay Baer
Image
There are no adequate substitutes for father, mother, and children bound together in a loving commitment to nurture and protect. No government, no matter how well-intentioned, can take the place of the family in the scheme of things.
Gerald R. Ford
Image
Faith affects the whole of man's nature. It commences with the conviction of the mind based on adequate evidence it continues in the confidence of the heart or emotions based on conviction, and it is crowned in the consent of the will by means of which the conviction and confidence are expressed in conduct.
William Griffith Thomas
Image
Drinking freshly made juices and eating enough whole foods to provide adequate fiber is a sensible approach to a healthful diet.
Jay Kordich
Image
My vocabulary is adequate for writing notes and keeping journals but absolutely useless for an active moral life.
Grace Paley
Image
The exercise of prayer, in those who habitually exert it, must be regarded by us doctors as the most adequate and normal of all the pacifiers of the mind and calmers of the nerves.
William James
Image
Women were seldom given quality assignments or adequate air time.
