The last time the earth was four degrees warmer, as Peter Brannen has written, there was no ice at either pole and sea level was 260 feet higher. ~ David Wallace-Wells
David Wallace quotes by David Wallace-Wells
...and David Wallace blinks in the midst of idly scanning class photos from his 1980 Aurora West H.S. yearbook and seeing my photo and trying, through the tiny little keyhole of himself, to imagine what all must have happened to lead up to my death in the fiery single-car accident he'd read about in 1991... ~ David Foster Wallace
David Wallace quotes by David Foster Wallace
Civilization no longer needs to open up wilderness; it needs wilderness to help open up the still largely unexplored human mind. ~ David Wallace
David Wallace quotes by David Wallace
I'm not saying that television is vulgar and dumb because the people who compose the Audience are vulgar and dumb. Television is the way it is simply because people tend to be extremely similar in their vulgar and prurient and dumb interests and wildly different in their refined and aesthetic and noble interests. ~ David Foster Wallace
David Wallace quotes by David Foster Wallace
Notice how people can sit for hours and talk to one another, but call us to pray and we find it to be great difficulty. Why is this so? 1) Lack of desperation (realizing our dependence on God), 2) The wrestlings of the flesh, 3) Lack of faith to believe not only that God hears us but that He will move on our behalf. ~ David Wallace
David Wallace quotes by David Wallace
A state of half-ignorance and half-indifference is a much more pervasive climate sickness than true denial or true fatalism. ~ David Wallace-Wells
David Wallace quotes by David Wallace-Wells
Fermentation may have been a better invention than fire. ~ David Wallace
David Wallace quotes by David Wallace
If this strikes you as tragic, which it should, consider that we have all the tools we need, today, to stop it all: a carbon tax and the political apparatus to aggressively phase out dirty energy; a new approach to agricultural practices and a shift away from beef and dairy in the global diet; and public investment in green energy and carbon capture. ~ David Wallace-Wells
David Wallace quotes by David Wallace-Wells
Strange things are happening here in the United States of America, right now, that are so troubling it is almost hard to believe they are occurring. Your taxpayer money is going toward these things. And your silence and/or apathy is tacit approval, not only in my eyes but in the eyes of the government. ~ David Seaman
David Wallace quotes by David Seaman
One of the axioms that most religions, Judaism included, accept about God is that God is good. But those are just words. What does it actually mean to be good? One of the things it means, Luzzatto says, is that one acts to benefit others. If there is no world, though, then there are no others that God can benefit; He exists alone in numinous solitude. God acted to create a world so that there would be other beings existing besides Himself, beings upon whom He could bestow goodness. In short, God created the world because goodness demanded it. ~ David Fohrman
David Wallace quotes by David Fohrman
There is no master without a servant and there is no country without citizens. There can't be leaders without followers or subjects. There is no harvest without sowing. ~ David Ssembajjo
David Wallace quotes by David Ssembajjo
There ought to be an opportunity when someone is working on a particular problem or issue, that they can come in and say, "Look, I'm not here to get the answer; I'm here to discuss an issue, and I'd like to be able to pick your brain but not feel compelled to do what you tell me. Let's talk through the problem. You've had lots of different experiences; you've been around in the world longer. Let me take the best and leave the rest. Let me just pick your brain." That is a valuable thing in a reporting relationship that rarely gets used. RAY VIAULT, VICE CHAIRMAN, GENERAL MILLS ~ David L. Dotlich

David Wallace quotes by Walter Isaacson
I was a big reader of Zane Grey as a young boy, and so horses and the West figured large in my imagination. ~ David Bergen
David Wallace quotes by David Bergen
We are quite open, however, to looking at acquisitions and there are opportunities that we periodically consider. and I think that may be something we do in the future, but I must say that there is no commitment to that at the present time in any form or size. ~ David Milne
David Wallace quotes by David Milne
Fuck you, Jack Ching," David Emerson swore. He found the keys were still in the ignition, and turned them. "Yeah. It's jackalope season, motherfucker. ~ Chad Huskins
David Wallace quotes by Chad Huskins
I can't understand how people can settle for having just one life. I remember we were in English class and we were talking about that poem by - that one guy. David Frost. 'Two roads diverged in a yellow wood-' You know this poem, right? 'Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I could not travel both and be one traveler, long I stood and looked down one as far as I could, to where it bent in the undergrowth-"
"I loved that poem. But I remember thinking to myself: Why? How come you can't travel both? That seemed really unfair to me. ~ Dan Chaon
David Wallace quotes by Dan Chaon
that for understanding the spread of behaviors in social networks, we need to take into account not just the power of influential nodes but also the extent to which these influential nodes have access to easily influenceable people. ~ David Easley
David Wallace quotes by David Easley
Grief is an ocean, and guilt the undertow that pulls me beneath the waves and drowns me. ~ Shaun David Hutchinson
David Wallace quotes by Shaun David Hutchinson
Many of the network television shows have done takeoffs on 'Family Circus,' including 'David Letterman,' 'Friends,' 'Roseanne,' and others, and, in my estimation the use of them is a compliment to the popularity of the feature, which just by mentioning it's name sets up the image of a warm, loving family-type feature. ~ Bil Keane
David Wallace quotes by Bil Keane
And so I learned what solitude really was. It was raw material - awesome, malleable,older than men or worlds or water. And it was merciless - for it let a man become precisely what he alone made of himself. ~ David James Duncan
David Wallace quotes by David James Duncan
My Alma mater is the Chicago Public Library. ~ David Mamet
David Wallace quotes by David Mamet
Many patients with cancer are depressed, yet depression is not the cause of cancer. ~ David S. Bell
David Wallace quotes by David S. Bell
We tried to tell them what was happening. We tried to tell them the disease was spreading. We needed doctors. We needed scientists. Most of all, we needed money, and to get money, we needed attention. We put our lives in other people's hands, and for the most part, they looked at us blankly and said, What lives? What hands? ~ David Levithan
David Wallace quotes by David Levithan
There is evil in all of us, and it is the mark of a man how he defies the evil within. ~ David Gemmell
David Wallace quotes by David Gemmell
In short, Mr. Ryan's plan is devoid of credible math or hard policy choices. And it couldn't pass even if Republicans were to take the presidency and both houses of Congress. Mr. Romney and Mr. Ryan have no plan to take on Wall Street, the Fed, the military-industrial complex, social insurance or the nation's fiscal calamity and no plan to revive capitalist prosperity - just empty sermons. ~ David Stockman
David Wallace quotes by David Stockman
And I would not blame you if you still asked, Why bother to make contact with kindred spirits you never see and may never hear from, who perhaps do not even exist except in your hopes? Why spend ten years in an apprenticeship to fiction only to discover that this society so little values what you do that it won't pay you a living wage for it? ~ Wallace Stegner
David Wallace quotes by Wallace Stegner
Being on the road and doing events is like getting kids ready for school for most families. ~ David Wolfe
David Wallace quotes by David Wolfe
On one tour, I was collecting stories about pet monkeys. You'd be surprised how many people have stories about monkeys. The problem is, most monkey stories end tragically. ~ David Sedaris
David Wallace quotes by David Sedaris
Charity is detrimental unless it helps the recipient become independent of it. ~ David Thorne
David Wallace quotes by David Thorne
Help is help to anyone, Mary. Even if they don't know they're asking for it." I said that made a whole lot of sense, because it did. And it still does. Here's the thing, Iz: my mom needs help right now. And I know it, even if she doesn't. ~ David Arnold
David Wallace quotes by David Arnold
I'm ready to lose myself,
but I'm not ready to lose you.
I'm ready to find myself,
But I'm not ready for you to know what I find. ~ David Levithan
David Wallace quotes by David Levithan
Teachings and ideologies subversive to the fundamental principles of this great Republic, which are contrary to the Constitution of the United States, or which are detrimental to the progress of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, will be condemned, whether advocated by Republicans or Democrats. ~ David O. McKay
David Wallace quotes by David O. McKay
It's incredible. Everything you ever thought about love just becomes night and day. I mean, you never thought you could love that much. You rediscover the world, and it's just a beautiful thing. ~ David Arquette
David Wallace quotes by David Arquette
If, in the name of liberty, we allow individuals to act in a way that damages the wellbeing of the whole, it will inevitably mean the breakdown of mutuality, thereby changing the very nature of our society. ~ David Blunkett
David Wallace quotes by David Blunkett
It took me a long time and most of the world to learn what I know about love and fate and the choices we make, but the heart of it came to me in an instant, while I was chained to a wall and being tortured. I realised, somehow, through the screaming of my mind, that even in that shackled, bloody helplessness, I was still free: free to hate the men who were torturing me, or to forgive them. It doesn't sound like much, I know. But in the flinch and bite of the chain, when it's all you've got, that freedom is an universe of possibility. And the choice you make between hating and forgiving, can become the story of your life. ~ Gregory David Roberts
David Wallace quotes by Gregory David Roberts
Being home secretary involves having to face some of the worst of human behaviour and challenges of modern society. ~ David Blunkett
David Wallace quotes by David Blunkett
Faith, indeed, is all the reform that is needed; it is itself a reform. ~ Henry David Thoreau
David Wallace quotes by Henry David Thoreau
...the guy might be a cold-blooded amoral sadistic killer and a cartload of tiles short of a watertight roof, but there was nothing wrong with his intelligence. [Caligula in Marcus Corvinus's eyes] ~ David Wishart
David Wallace quotes by David Wishart
The incontrovertible evidence is that Hitler ordered on November 30, 1941, that there was to be 'no liquidation of the Jews.' ~ David Irving
David Wallace quotes by David Irving
Breathing involves a continual oscillation between exhaling and inhaling, offering ourselves to the world at one moment and drawing the world into ourselves at the next ... ~ David Abram
David Wallace quotes by David Abram
In the busyness and self-centeredness of our lives, we sadly forget how much our lives have been blessed by and radically redirected by mercy. ~ Paul David Tripp
David Wallace quotes by Paul David Tripp
In my case what happened is that within about two weeks of beginning meditation, the anger already started to go away. My wife came to me and said, "What's going on?" and I said, "What are you talking about?" To which she replied, "This anger, where did it go?" I didn't even realize that my anger had been going away. ~ David Lynch
David Wallace quotes by David Lynch
I know. I admit that. You're working with NSC now. And the FBI." "So?" "So how would you like to be part of a joint effort with NIC?" "I already have enough alphabet letters, thanks." "You ~ David Baldacci
David Wallace quotes by David Baldacci
As millions use social media as a primary source of information, the risk of falling victim to being misinformed is high. Readers who quickly scan newsfeeds tend to only read (and share information about) a headline: focusing on "the hook." Whether due to complacency or lack of time, few explore the content. This allows bogus media outlets to descend on the unsuspecting (and unprepared) seekers of instant information, creating false stories with dazzling one-liners, secure in the knowledge that there will be little effort to pursue confirmation or research an entire story. ~ Carlos Wallace
David Wallace quotes by Carlos Wallace
I wished for Derek Michen to kiss my face off (that one was when I was nine years old and was absolutely positive he was the love of my life. He did kiss me two weeks later, but then he also kissed Jessica, David, Megan, Rhonda, and Robert. Derek turned out to be a bit of a whore). ~ T.J. Klune
David Wallace quotes by T.J. Klune
Why pray for the Kingdom of God to come unless you have in your heart a desire and a willingness to aid in its establishment? Praying for His will to be done and then not trying to live it, gives you a negative answer at once. You would not grant something to a child who showed that attitude towards a request he is making of you. If we pray for the success of some cause or enterprise, manifestly we are in sympathy with it. It is the height of disloyalty to pray for God's will to be done, and then fail to conform our lives to that will. ~ David O. McKay
David Wallace quotes by David O. McKay
Who would seriously want to listen to anything emanating from a quasi-chimpanzee's irrational bundle of mental accidents and energies? ~ David A. Noebel
David Wallace quotes by David A. Noebel
I feel like there's lot of people who know finance and economics better than I do. There are lots of people who are better storytellers than I am. But the space that I occupy of storytelling about finance and economics is - more people want it than can do it. ~ David Plotz
David Wallace quotes by David Plotz
The further a mathematical theory is developed, the more harmoniously and uniformly does its construction proceed, and unsuspected relations are disclosed between hitherto separated branches of the science. ~ David Hilbert
David Wallace quotes by David Hilbert
She said, A king is the best and worst of men. Of course. Of course. ~ David Anthony Durham
David Wallace quotes by David Anthony Durham
Because I'm a democrat! The will of the people is sovereign. ~ David Cameron
