Aldous HuxleyThe higher orders [of angels] are presumed to be closer in their nature to God and to function in roles that serve God more directly than the lower orders, which tend to the administration of the physical universe and the service of humankind.

John Kenneth GalbraithCapital requires protection, as do the institutions through which it operates.

Mahatma GandhiModernism really started with people getting infatuated with the idea of "it's the twentieth century, is this suitable for the twentieth century." This happened before the First World War and it wasn't just the soldiers. You can see it happening if you read the Bloomsbury biographies. It was a reaction to a great extent against Victorianism. There was so much that was repressive and stuffy. Victorian buildings were associated with it, and they were regarded as very ugly. Even when they weren't ugly, people made them ugly. They were painted hideously.
Jane JacobsIt's so hard to actually find that niche for yourself. It's like when Nicolas Ghesquiรฉre found Balenciaga.

My name is associated with it enough, and we have a fantastic team here.

Kate BernheimerYou know, if youโre caught with an ounce of cocaine, the chances are good youโre going to go to jail. If it happens repeatedly, you may go to jail for the rest of your life. But evidently, if you launder nearly a billion dollars for drug cartels and violate our international sanctions, your company pays a fine and you go home and sleep in your own bed at night, every single individual associated with this. I think thatโs fundamentally wrong.

John Andreas WidtsoeAll material Things seem to have been composed of the hard and solid Particles ... variously associated with the first Creation by the Counsel of an intelligent Agent.

Tim GunnYou shouldn't send an email from a computer that's associated with you if you don't want it to be tracked back to you. You don't want to hack the power plant from your house if you don't want them to follow the trail back and see your IP address.
Edward SnowdenUnemployment is higher in Europe than in the United States and primarily concentrated in immigrant minority populations, so people are worried about what's going to happen and if American-style ghettos are emerging in Europe.

I get the sense that in Europe they are much more concerned about these issues than in the United States.

L. Ron HubbardThe hope of a Christian is inseparable from his faith. Whoever believes in the divine inspiration of the Holy Scriptures must hope that the religion of Jesus shall prevail throughout the earth.
