Mantak ChiaAfter every happiness comes misery; they may be far apart or near. The more advanced the soul, the more quickly does one follow the other. What we want is neither happiness nor misery. Both make us forget our true nature; both are chains-one iron, one gold; behind both is the Atman, who knows neither happiness nor misery. These are states, and states must ever change; but the nature of the Atman is bliss, peace, unchanging. We have not to get it, we have it; only wash away the dross and see it.

Hillary ClintonThere are certainly lots of jobs in computer coding, but coding doesn't really require advanced mathematics.

Robert Green IngersollIn the days of Ram Mohan Roy when English education was introduced in this country, the Mahomedans did not accept it... They did not accept English education and at the same time they were divorced from the culture which their fathers had advanced. The result was that whereas the Hindus got on in life, got into government employment, got many things which people value in life, the Mahomedans were left without it and gradually there came to be a sort of estrangement between the two nationalities at the time of the Swadeshi movement.

Debbie StabenowIn history, in most cultures, and at most points in time, if you want to find the most advanced technologies, you can look principally in two places.

In fact, I think you can find many examples of instruments being predecessors of weapons and very few in the reverse.
Jaron LanierAmong the current discussions, the impact of new and sophisticated methods in the study of the past occupies an important place.

He said go to less advanced schools where they do all right. We`re going back to separate but equal.
Chris HayesWhat a contrast between the stern and desolate poetry of Ossian, and that of Chaucer, and even of Shakespeare and Milton, much more of Dryden, and Pope, and Gray! Our summer of English poetry, like the Greek and Latin before it, seems well advanced towards its fall, and laden with the fruit and foliage of the season, with bright autumnal tints, but soon the winter will scatter its myriad clustering and shading leaves, and leave only a few desolate and fibrous boughs to sustain the snow and rime, and creak in the blasts of age.

Bernie SandersAs in a Russian doll, however, the outer layers always contain an inner core. Instead of evolution having replaced simpler forms of empathy with more advanced ones, the latter are merely elaborations on the former and remain dependent on them.

And this will never happen. As far as I know, recording studios are booked all the time. So obviously people like all the improvements. The more technically advanced they are, the more in demand they become.
Bob DylanIn Tunisia the Americans had to pay a stiff price for their experience, but it brought rich dividends.
