T. D. JakesThe atmosphere generated by the fans in Celtic's stadium for our visit was the most impressive I've ever witnessed.

Edward AbbeyI would have to say that in this sort of feminized atmosphere in which we exist today, guys who are masculine and muscular like that in their private conduct, kind of old fashion tough guys, run some risk....

Brit HumeI think a big part of my job is to make an atmosphere on set and have an attitude that it's about experimentation, and you can't do anything wrong.

That is a style of directing some people have, but I don't understand it.

Florence NightingaleHave you not budged an inch, then? Such is the daily news. Its facts appear to float in the atmosphere.... We should wash ourselves clean of such news.

I would not run round a corner to see the world blow up.
Henry David ThoreauFlight out of the atmosphere is a simple thing to do and should have been available to the public twenty years ago.

Thomas GuthrieAfrica - You can see a sunset and believe you have witnessed the Hand of God. You watch the slope lope of a lioness and forget to breathe. You marvel at the tripod of a giraffe bent to water. In Africa, there are iridescent blues on the wings of birds that you do not see anywhere else in nature.

Where there is life. Some of it, possibly, intelligent.

John LeguizamoThe morning, which is the most memorable season of the day, is the awakening hour. Then there is least somnolence in us; and for an hour, at least, some part of us awakes which slumbers all the rest of the day and night... All memorable events, I should say, transpire in morning time and in a morning atmosphere. The Vedas say, โAll intelligences awake with the morning.
Henry David Thoreau
