If every event which occurred could be given a name, there would be no need for stories.
John Berger
Image
The secret of the world is the tie between person and event. Person makes event and event person.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
We're better at predicting events at the edge of the galaxy or inside the nucleus of an atom than whether it'll rain on auntie's garden party three Sundays from now.
Tom Stoppard
Image
Character is developed one positive action at a time. Therefore nothing is actually trivial in our lives. To grow in character development, pay attention to seemingly trivial matters. Someone who grows from each minor life event will eventually reach high levels of character perfection.
Zelig Pliskin
Image
A miracle is a supernatural event, whose antecedent forces are beyond our finite vision, whose design is the display of almighty power for the accomplishment of almighty purposes, and whose immediate result, as regards man, is his recognition of God as the Supreme Ruler of all things, and of His will as the only supreme law.
Abbott Eliot Kittredge
Image
I think about people and events in terms of archetypes a lot.
Zephyr Teachout
Image
I think it's the same to be an actress anywhere because the profession is about attitudes towards events -- it is a process to try to understand life. I think this is the case for actors across the world.
Zhou Xun
Image
We know the past and its great events, the present in its multitudinous complications, chiefly through faith in the testimony of others.
Matthew Simpson
Image
Those who turn things around by themselves do not rejoice at gain or grieve over loss the whole world is the range they roam. Those who are themselves used by things hate it when events go against them and love it when they go their way the slightest thing can create binding entanglements.

By and large, I think it should be a rule in the teacher employment manual that you can't go attend any event where if you took your classroom on a student field trip, they would summarily be obliterated. That should be rule No. 1.
Dennis Miller

Failing is an event, not a person. Yesterday ended last night.
Zig Ziglar
Image
When I make a photograph I want it to be an altogether new object, complete and self-contained, whose basic condition is order (unlike the world of events and actions whose permanent condition is change and disorder).
Aaron Siskind
Image
Failure is an event, it is not a person.
Zig Ziglar
Image
Failure is an event, never a person an attitude, not an outcome a temporary inconvenience a stepping stone. Our response to it determines just how helpful it can be.
Zig Ziglar
Image
The usual devastating put-downs imply that a person is basically bad, rather than that he is a person who sometimes does bad things. Obviously, there is a vast difference between a bad person and a person who does something bad. Besides, failure is an event, it is not a person - yesterday ended last night.
Zig Ziglar
Image
The solution is to change from the negative to the positive and one way to do that is to remember that failure is an event - it is not a person. Another way is to understand that your child might make a mistake, but the child is not a mistake
Zig Ziglar
Image
It's customary when great events happen that the U.S. punishes its friends and rewards its enemies.
Ahmed Chalabi
Image
Every shrink knows that it's not the event itself but how you respond to it that tells the story. Take ten assorted individuals, expose them all to the same life trial, and they will each suffuse it with exquisite personal detail and meaning.
A.S.A. Harrison
Image
My memories of events and games are fragmented.
Zinedine Zidane
Image
My diary became more than a place to record daily events. It became a friend, the paper that it was made of was ready and willing to accept anything and everything I had to say.
Zlata Filipović
Image
History gets thicker as it approaches recent times: more people, more events, and more books written about them. More evidence is preserved, often, one is tempted to say, too much. Decay and destruction have hardly begun their beneficent work.
A. J. P. Taylor

. . I think the Adam Smith role was played in this cycle i.e. the late twentieth century collapse of socialism in which the idea of free-markets succeeded first, and then special events catalyzed a complete change of socio-political policy in countries around the world by Friedrich Hayek's The Road to Serfdom.
Milton Friedman
Image
There are no principles there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances.
Honore de Balzac
Image
Once upon a time, when I was young, people saw a wedding as an event that determined the rest of their life. For a rising number of people today, it is quite normal to try and err, marry, divorce, marry again.
