About
TV
On buses and trains, I always think about the inexhaustible variety of human genes. We see types, and occasionally twins, but never doubles. All faces are unique, and this is exhilarating, despite the increasingly plastic similarity of TV stars and actors.
- A. S. Byatt
Through
Will
After believing in promises made and never fulfilled by Labour, people have become increasingly disenchanted with the process assuming that all politicians will say anything to gain power, and then never follow through.
- Adam Rickitt
Last
Over
To try to teach ignoring technology is to ignore the progress that we have made over the last century. If school is preparation for the real world - a real world that is increasingly technology-driven - then to ignore technology is to become obsolete.
- Adora Svitak
Best Way
If you're looking to grow your user base, is there a best way to cost-effectively attract valuable users? I'm increasingly convinced the best way is by harnessing a concept called social proof, a relatively untapped gold mine in the age of the social web.
- Aileen Lee
Becoming
Some
I did not grow up thinking that I wanted to be an engineer. I had read some articles about girls becoming increasingly scientifically illiterate and that girls lacked confidence in their capabilities when it came to quantitative skills. And I just thought that was kind of wrong.
- Aileen Lee
Rest
Question
The signs that the world is spinning out of kilter are increasingly difficult to misinterpret. The question is how to convince enough people to join a critical mass of urgent opinion, in the U.S. and the rest of the world.
- Al Gore
Reason
There are people who say, 'Oh this guy is quite thick.' I think the reason is that, increasingly, I don't mind being simple in terms of literary expression. Others say, 'No, no, no. He went to Cambridge. He got a good degree. He must be Einstein.'
- Alain de Botton
Couple
Almost
I increasingly fear that nothing good can come of almost any adaptation, and obviously that's sweeping. There are a couple of adaptations that are perhaps as good or better than the original work. But the vast majority of them are pointless.
- Alan Moore
Hollywood
There's nothing that could get me interested in Hollywood again. And, increasingly, there's nothing that could get me interested in the American comics industry again.
- Alan Moore
Think
Virtual
I think that in an increasingly virtual world, lovingly produced artefacts are at a premium.
- Alan Moore
New
Capital
Whatever the potential pitfalls, banks are increasingly enthusiastic about venture capital, particularly in new companies with strong prospects in fields like health care and technology.
- Alex Berenson
Big
Tens
Big companies, which spend tens of billions of dollars annually on 'call centers' to take orders and provide customer support, increasingly rely on speech recognition not just to handle requests for information but to process customer orders.
- Alex Berenson
Question
Over
Over the past few years, many of us have increasingly begun to question the direction and meaning of our society as it has developed over the past several centuries.
- Alex Campbell
Translating
From this process has emerged a parallel process of translating traditional working and living values into a new political and economic power - a power increasingly based upon the strength of money and those material things money can purchase.
- Alex Campbell
Idea
Some
Why do we even need WikiLeaks? They're not the only organization that publishes leaks. And they don't have some special technology that allows them to post on the Internet with mirrored sites. The idea of WikiLeaks lives on, but as an organization, it's become increasingly irrelevant.
- Alex Gibney
Bigger
Rising
As technology keeps improving, the price of oil keeps rising, and the ice keeps melting, Arctic energy is bound to be an increasingly bigger part of the global mix.

More

- Alexandra Fuller
Unacceptable
It is unacceptable that the system we rely on to develop children into well-adjusted, learned, cultured adults allows drones to dominate and increasingly devalues freethinkers.
- Alexandra Robbins
Surrounded
I don't know what has caused this reawakening in academia. Obama? The GOP's assaults on science and on patients? Jon Stewart? I'm not at all sure. I just know I don't feel nearly as alone in academia as I used to. I'm feeling increasingly surrounded by fellow Ph.D.'s and by M.D.'s who seem to be taking a lot of things personally.
- Alice Dreger
Medicine
Set
I actually completely suck at being a bioethicist. What I do is history of medicine and patient advocacy. Patient advocacy is actually the opposite of bioethics, because bioethicists are the people who increasingly set up and justify the systems we patient advocates have to fight.
- Alice Dreger
Celebrity
With celebrity being our new religion, it's increasingly difficult to start up on your own. Talented young designers are more likely to either go and work for celebrity brands or huge fashion houses than ever before.
- Alice Temperley
Deal
Became
I did actually have a deal with Columbia, but it became increasingly clear to me after signing with them that they didn't know what to do with me and I didn't know what to do for them, so we agreed to go our separate ways.
- Amanda Marshall
Bring
Worlds
Increasingly, there are those of us who write from outside the center, and those are the writers that I'm most interested in because they bring me into worlds that I did not previously know. And that, as a writer, is what I try to create.
- Aminatta Forna
Similar
When choosing between two similar applicants, hiring managers are increasingly turning to social media outlets to supplement information they are unable to glean from applications or interviews.
- Amy Jo Martin
Vice
Linear

- Angela Ahrendts
Result
See

- Angela Davis
Business
The entertainment business remains a business of blockbusters, and increasingly so.
- Anita Elberse
Other
Very
Many people don't know, but American Girl Scouts get to travel the world, and that's a very good thing, as the more we can expose our young people to other cultures, the better off we'll be in this increasingly globalized environment.
- Anna Maria Chavez
Like
Becoming

- Armstrong Williams
Other

- Chellie Pingree

- Christopher Lasch
Like
Symbolic

- Cliff Stearns
Play
Some
Increasingly I think of myself as some strange and solitary conductor, introduced to a group of very dynamic musicians who happen to be my characters, and I have no idea how they are going to play together, and I have certainly no idea how I am going to put manners on them.
- Colum McCann
Penalties
Private-sector firms are increasingly active in the prison industry and they and the militantly unionized correctional officers, almost all unskilled labor, constantly lead public demands for more criminal statutes and more draconian penalties.
- Conrad Black
We Cannot

Think
Nine
Being a father of three children and grandfather to nine, I do think that this thing called 'parenting' is becoming increasingly difficult.
- Craig T. Nelson
Other
Line
I feel that the world is increasingly about the bottom line, and not so much about human respect or human dignity. In that regard, people who care about other people will not be in a position to make choices and do things that other people who they're competing against will get to do.
- Dan Gilroy
More
Critical
The establishment of free trade agreements can be a critical and progressive step towards greater economic integration, and continues to become more valuable in an increasingly global world.
- Dan Kildee
Serious
Here
Cyberterrorism has become an increasingly prevalent and serious threat here in America, both to individuals and businesses.
- Dana Boente
Work
Always
In economic terms, we've always thought of work as a disutility - as something you do to get something else. Now it's increasingly a utility - something that's valuable and worthy in its own right.
- Daniel H. Pink
Think
Country
I think technology is spreading, and I think one's experience of technology is going to relate increasingly to class - not so much to country.
- Daniel Suarez
Play
Measured
Our education system is increasingly embracing a black-and-white way of thinking, in which 'learning' and 'play' are diametrically opposed. 'Learning' is the serious stuff that happens inside a classroom and can be measured via multiple choice questions and a No. 2 pencil. 'Play' is frivolous, fun, and worst of all, optional.
- Darell Hammond
Bed
Laid
I returned to upstate NY where I just laid in bed for days with a fever that just wouldn't go away. After more of this, I grew increasingly sure that this was not simply the flu!
- Daryl Hall
Which
Grows
The responsibility to seek learning by faith rests upon each of us individually, and this obligation will become increasingly important as the world in which we live grows more confused and troubled.
- David A. Bednar
Through
Some
Search as a paradigm will continue to be probably even increasingly important because the information that's out there is only going to grow exponentially - and the only way to sort through all that is by some form of search.
- David Filo
Music
Venue
Instrumental music is increasingly marginalized and there's just no outlet, there's no venue for it, in terms of media.
- David Sanborn
Soil
Gardens
Planting native species in our gardens and communities is increasingly important, because indigenous insects, birds and wildlife rely on them. Over thousands, and sometimes millions, of years they have co-evolved to live in local climate and soil conditions.
- David Suzuki
Critical
Running back-to-back races requires a certain tactical prudence. Going too hard in any one race might jeopardize your performance in another. Maintaining proper hydration and caloric equilibrium also becomes increasingly critical.
- Dean Karnazes
Becoming
Been
In a global economy, the Bush doctrine of unilateralism - going it alone - has been disastrous. It's becoming increasingly clear that we're all in this together. Your happiness is my happiness, your suffering is my suffering, your recession is my recession.
- Dean Ornish
More
Been
The world we live in has been and is being increasingly politicised so that our daily experience is more and more a matter of public policy.
- Deborah Eisenberg
No Question
As women have played an increasingly important role in politics, there is no question that they've brought a different perspective, focusing attention on a broader set of issues and building alliances with other women.
- Dee Dee Myers
Through
Some
There are some terrorist organizations, there are some organized crime organizations, that launder money through charities and make donations to charities. That's not the purpose of charitable donations in Canada, so we're becoming increasingly strict on the subject.
- Jim Flaherty
Next
Big
A creative mindset is in increasingly high demand: employers are vying for workers who are able to dream big and deliver big with the next must-have product. Creative thinking fuels innovation, it leads to new goods and services, creates jobs and delivers substantial economic rewards.
- Jim Hunt
Like
Fewer
We have increasingly fewer and fewer journalists who have any military experience and understand what life is like in the military and in combat.
- Jim Lehrer
Here
Very

- Joe Mansueto
Art
Beginning
I did all the work at the beginning up until the point where I couldn't handle the increasingly heavy art production burden alone. I needed, and got, assistance.
- Joe Shuster
About
Goods
Globalisation means many things. At one level, it talks of trade, which since the 16th century has exchanged goods and now, increasingly, ideas and information across the globe. But globalisation is also a view of the world - it is an opinion about man and why men are on the world.
- John Berger
Society
Aware
Though neglectful of their responsibility to protect science, scientists are increasingly aware of their responsibility to society.
- John Charles Polanyi
Employ
Purely
As experimentation becomes more complex, the need for the co-operation in it of technical elements from outside becomes greater and the modern laboratory tends increasingly to resemble the factory and to employ in its service increasing numbers of purely routine workers.
- John Desmond Bernal
See
Been
We will see the increasingly rapid rate of growth we've already been seeing in Colorado continue.
- John Hickenlooper
Think
I Think
I think, increasingly, despite what we are being told is an ever more open world of communication, there is a terrible alienation in the ordinary man between what he is being told and what he secretly believes.
- John le Carre
Over
Some
American colleges are now increasingly reflexive in maintaining politically correct dialogue over controversy, and some say universities have lost sight of education's ultimate purpose.
- John McLaughlin
Data
New
Intuition becomes increasingly valuable in the new information society precisely because there is so much data.
- John Naisbitt
Society
Aware
Though neglectful of their responsibility to protect science, scientists are increasingly aware of their responsibility to society.
- John Polanyi
Some

- John Pople
Humble
How
If we become increasingly humble about how little we know, we may be more eager to search.
- John Templeton
Becoming
Very
Barry White seemed so filled with self-parody at first that it was easy to dismiss him. But it is becoming increasingly obvious with every additional release that he is a very talented man.
- Jon Landau
Needed
Became
The early Stones were adolescent rockers. They were self-conscious in an obvious and unpretentious way. And they were committed to a musical style that needed no justification because it came so naturally to them. As they grew musically the mere repetition of old rock and blues tunes became increasingly less satisfying.
- Jon Landau
Generations
We eat as sons and daughters, as families, as communities, as generations, as nations, and increasingly as a globe. We can't stop our eating from radiating influence even if we want to.
- Jonathan Safran Foer
Digital
Other
Digital books and other texts are increasingly coming under the control of distributors and other gatekeepers rather than readers and libraries.
- Jonathan Zittrain
Small
Stigma
Native Americans' families experience living surrounded, living in increasingly small reservations surrounded by the society that destroyed their civilization, and are still stigmatized. For decades and decades, for hundreds of years except in Indian schools, they weren't allowed to speak their language. That stigma takes a terrible toll.
- Joshua Oppenheimer
Find
Very
I find it very difficult to relax. I find it increasingly difficult to find outlets for my frustration.
- Judd Nelson
About
I Write
I see life as increasingly complex, vivid, colorful, crazy, chaotic. That's the world I write about... the world I live in.
- Julia Glass
Tough
Compete

- Julia Roberts
Cultural
We are increasingly recognising and accepting, respecting and celebrating, our cultural diversity.
- Julie Bishop
Society
Australia has an increasingly multicultural society.
- Julie Bishop

More

- Balaji Srinivasan
Chance
Offers
Climate change is destroying our path to sustainability. Ours is a world of looming challenges and increasingly limited resources. Sustainable development offers the best chance to adjust our course.
- Ban Ki-moon
Grow
Will
And that will increasingly dawn on people. The demand for controlling the commanding heights will grow.
- Barbara Castle
Becoming
Code
I found it interesting that as people become more technically oriented all over the world, at the same time people are becoming increasingly spiritual. The success of the Da Vinci code - even though it was a great yawn - also showed people's interest in religion.
- Barbara Walters
Which
Offered
We are increasingly offered a diet in which sensation, not story, is king.
- Beeban Kidron
Work
Need
We need to work out who is paying for film; in the U.K., it is increasingly difficult to get production funds - and pre-sales demand more and more shot/cut material.
- Beeban Kidron
Own
Use
Our children, manipulated to become exemplary consumers, increasingly admit they do not feel 'in control' of their own Internet use.
- Beeban Kidron
Love
Means
I have been thinking about the notion of perfect love as being without fear, and what that means for us in a world that's becoming increasingly xenophobic, tortured by fundamentalism and nationalism.
