And more than the quality of its institutions, what distinguishes a developed country from a developing one is the degree of consensus in its politics, and thus its ability to take actions to secure a better future despite short-term pain. ~ Raghuram G. Rajan
Developed Country quotes by Raghuram G. Rajan
Morals, principles and laws are when faith is reduced to standards and those standards basically just bind us, and we become prejudicial, racist, self-serving when we're guided by these laws ... When a developed country uses Christianity in its policies, in government, in maintaining corporate wealth, that's a bastardized rendering of a faith. ~ Sufjan Stevens
Developed Country quotes by Sufjan Stevens
I just play to progressive audiences. You know, if they're watching Discovery Channel, History Channel, that kind of thing, "Monty Python" have already laid the groundwork. They're known around the world. People like that kind of surrealist, left-field humor, and that's what I do. And "Saturday Night Live," a lot of American humor. "The Simpsons," above all, the weird, left-field humor, which I love. And sardonic. So that's all I'm doing. I find that audience, and they're in every developed country around the world. ~ Eddie Izzard
Developed Country quotes by Eddie Izzard
I think developed countries - so-called developed countries - should reflect upon the way of living and the waste of energy. ~ Hugo Chavez
Developed Country quotes by Hugo Chavez
the chance of an average developing-country person being an entrepreneur is more than twice that for a developed-country person (30 per cent vs. 12.8 per cent). ~ Ha-Joon Chang
Developed Country quotes by Ha-Joon Chang
Thanks to quality education, Israel is one of the most advanced countries in the world .. Israel is advancing in high-tech even more than other developed countries. ~ Bill Gates
Developed Country quotes by Bill Gates
Work is a four letter word. It conjures up the same image the world over getting up in the morning to do something you don't want to do, day in day out. After a few months work, or years, depending on the person's primeval yearning for freedom, you feel like a robot: alarm clock, get up, wash, catch the train, work, go home, watch TV, go to bed. In that one sentence I've probably just described the daily routine of 95% of the working population of England. It's the same in every other developed country in the world. Routine is the cause of most marriage break ups and social discontent. ~ John Harris
Developed Country quotes by John Harris
It is possible that, post-Kyoto, the developed countries will recognise the requirements of the developing world. ~ P. Chidambaram
Developed Country quotes by P. Chidambaram
A primary task of management in the developed countries in the decades ahead will be to make knowledge productive. ~ Peter Drucker
Developed Country quotes by Peter Drucker
We must reduce the emissions 100 percent. In Venezuela, the emissions are currently insignificant compared to the emissions of the developed countries. ~ Hugo Chavez
Developed Country quotes by Hugo Chavez
In an underdeveloped country don't drink the water. In a developed country don't breathe the air. ~ Jonathan Raban
Developed Country quotes by Jonathan Raban
For hundreds of years, more than half of the face of this earth has been controlled by European countries and turned in to colonies, and the Europeans have sucked up whatever they could find, brought it all home, and made themselves rich. But not Germany and Japan; they didn't get anything. But now they have just as much power as any other developed country, and so they are demanding their share. That is the origin of this war, a war between greedy nations. ~ Eka Kurniawan
Developed Country quotes by Eka Kurniawan
I love travelling, and had the pleasure of being in the most developed country in the world and then parts of two of the most pristine natural areas of the world: the Galapagos islands and the Equador Amazon jungle. The contrast was incredible. ~ Adam Garcia
Developed Country quotes by Adam Garcia
We are now more Socialist in many ways than any other developed country outside the Communist bloc - in the size of the public sector, the range of controls and the telescoping of net income. And what is the result? Compare our position today with that of our neighbours in north west Europe - Germany, Sweden, Holland, France. They are no more talented than we are. Yet, compared with them, we have the longest working hours, the lowest pay and the lowest production per head. We have the highest taxes and the lowest investment. We have the least prosperity, the most poor and the lowest pensions. We have the largest nationalized sector and the worst labour troubles. ~ Keith Joseph
Developed Country quotes by Keith Joseph
A highly developed country of the past, in an advanced state of decay). ~ Shashi Tharoor
Developed Country quotes by Shashi Tharoor
I am convinced that Nigeria would have been a more highly developed country without the oil. I wished we'd never smelled the fumes of petroleum. ~ Wole Soyinka
Developed Country quotes by Wole Soyinka
All of which suggested literary translation, and Korean seemed a good bet - barely anything available in English, yet it was a modern, developed country, so the work had to be out there, plus the rarity would make it both easier to secure a student grant and more of a niche when it came to work. ~ Deborah Smith
Developed Country quotes by Deborah Smith
A global deal will only be possible if Britain plays its part, leading the way with other developed countries. ~ Lucy Powell
Developed Country quotes by Lucy Powell
The problems are our lives. In the "developed" countries, at least, the large problems occur because all of us are living either partly wrong or almost entirely wrong. It was not just the greed of corporate shareholders and the hubris of corporate executives that put the fate of Prince William Sound into one ship; it was also our demand that energy be cheap and plentiful. ~ Wendell Berry
Developed Country quotes by Wendell Berry
The United States now has the highest rate of incarceration in the world, dwarfing the rates of nearly every developed country, even surpassing those in highly repressive regimes like Russia, China, and Iran. ~ Michelle Alexander
Developed Country quotes by Michelle Alexander
The suddenness of the leap from hardware to software cannot but produce a period of anarchy and collapse, especially in the developed countries. ~ Marshall McLuhan
Developed Country quotes by Marshall McLuhan
Obviously it's easier to grow faster when you are a less developed country than when you are where the U.S. is. ~ Chris Hayes
Developed Country quotes by Chris Hayes
I completely agree. The crazy thing is that the current system only benefits the rich and those in power. We buy into their arguments, even when they contradict our direct experiences. We accept the unacceptable. Take Marduk. We live in one of the richest cities in the world, in a developed country, and yet we have one of the highest levels of inequality and homelessness. How strange that despite our wealth we should be so greedy! ~ Sheila Matharu
Developed Country quotes by Sheila Matharu
I would argue that a truly developed country would be beyond Presidents and Kings. In a world with some semblance of equality, each liberal-minded woman, each gay person, and indeed almost every person could be their own President. In a world of equals, what real service does a ruler provide? ~ Isaac Asimov
Developed Country quotes by Isaac Asimov
Brazilians need to work on their own national pride. I always think that they suffer from national low-self esteem. It's a lesser-developed country, and they have struggled so much. Sometimes they have an attitude that, if it's Brazilian, it can't be good. ~ Amy Irving
Developed Country quotes by Amy Irving
The Unites States is the largest developed country. Canada enjoys a flourishing economy and advanced technology. Mexico is an important developing country. China attaches great importance to the friendly cooperation with the three countries,. ~ Li Zhaoxing
Developed Country quotes by Li Zhaoxing
The inflow of capital from the developed countries is the prerequisite for the establishment of economic dependence. This inflow takes various forms: loans granted on onerous terms; investments that place a given country in the power of the investors; almost total technological subordination of the dependent country to the developed country; control of a country's foreign trade by the big international monopolies; and in extreme cases, the use of force as an economic weapon in support of the other forms of exploitation. ~ Che Guevara
Developed Country quotes by Che Guevara
Vietnam remains an underdeveloped economy with a high poverty incidence, ... party, people and army will continue to stand united and ... turn Vietnam into a developed country in the coming decades. ~ Tran Duc Luong
Developed Country quotes by Tran Duc Luong
Trade allegedly does not foster growth because when it begins, a flood of imports of factory origin destroys the handicraft manufacturing of the less developed country: the models for this are the effects of British exports of textiles and of iron in India and Chile in the first half of the nineteenth century. ~ Arthur Lewis
Developed Country quotes by Arthur Lewis
I thought i could wake up this sleeping country with my cries, but still they sleep as if in a dream. ~ Fatima Bhutto
Developed Country quotes by Fatima Bhutto
To survive, China had to open up to the West. It could not survive otherwise. This was after many millions have died of hunger in a country that was like North Korea is today. Once we became part of global competition, we had to agree to some rules. It's painful, but we had to. Otherwise there was no way to survive. ~ Ai Weiwei
Developed Country quotes by Ai Weiwei
You think I'm finished, so you're leaving me to be crucified by every piece of shit journalist in the fucking country. ~ Clive Barker
Developed Country quotes by Clive Barker
It is extremely important that mass media, having freed from the relics of the Cold War, served for peace and dialogue between nations and religions, the rich and the poor, countries and continents. ~ Nursultan Nazarbayev
Developed Country quotes by Nursultan Nazarbayev
Our country's founders cherished liberty, not democracy. ~ Ron Paul
Developed Country quotes by Ron Paul
No country should deny people their rights because of who they love, which is why we must stand up for the rights of gays and lesbians everywhere. ~ Barack Obama
Developed Country quotes by Barack Obama
We announce the birth of a conceptual country, NEWTOPIA. Citizenship of the country can be obtained by declaration of your awareness of NEWTOPIA. NEWTOPIA has no land, no boundaries, no passports, only people. NEWTOPIA has no laws other than cosmic. All people of NEWTOPIA are ambassadors of the country. As two ambassadors of NEWTOPIA, we ask for diplomatic immunity and recognition in the United Nations of our country and our people. ~ John Lennon
Developed Country quotes by John Lennon
It is organized as a fellowship of men, a system of morals, a philosophy taught by degrees through the use of symbol, story, legend, pictures, and drama. It has served as a center of union among differing backgrounds, cultures, and countries. It serves as the means of conciliating true friendship among persons, who, because of differences, must have otherwise remained at a perpetual distance. ~ Harry S. Truman
Developed Country quotes by Harry S. Truman
I introduced legislation in the Senate to prohibit President Obama's amnesty. The House of Representatives stood up and led. It took the legislation I introduced and it passed it. But the Senate Democrats stood as one uniform block and said, 'No, we will do nothing to stop amnesty.' ~ Ted Cruz
Developed Country quotes by Ted Cruz
The Philippines just need 100 youth to stand up for their country ~ F. Sionil Jose
Developed Country quotes by F. Sionil Jose
He had been struck, in the course of his travels in the old countries of Europe, with the wisdom of those notices posted up in country towns, that "any vagrant found begging there would be put in the stocks," and he had observed that no beggars were to be seen in these neighborhoods; having doubtless thrown off their rags and their poverty, and become rich under the terror of the law. He ~ Washington Irving
Developed Country quotes by Washington Irving
If I ran the country there'd be courses in things that you'd actually use your whole life. Like: How to do eyeliner. How to fill in a tax return. What to do when your loo blocks and your dad isn't answering the phone and you're about to have a party. ~ Sophie Kinsella
Developed Country quotes by Sophie Kinsella
I always give three pieces of advice to all the teenage girls when I do my talks: long country walks - it's important to get some fresh air in your lungs, and be in contact with your body; masturbation - it takes the edge off, it'll get you through; and the revolution - believing in changing the world. ~ Caitlin Moran
Developed Country quotes by Caitlin Moran
Either the USSR was not the country of socialism, in which case socialism didn't exist anywhere and doubtless, wasn't possible: or else, socialism was that, this abominable monster, this police state, the power of beasts of prey ~ Jean-Paul Sartre
Developed Country quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre
Mrs. Parks' act of brave defiance rocked the foundation of American society and inspired generations of civil rights leaders and created a sense of hope for every American facing legal discrimination in this country. ~ Kendrick Meek
Developed Country quotes by Kendrick Meek
People ask me in Europe, when they do interviews ... they ask me, 'Well, how does it feel to be a cook in a country that doesn't know how to eat?' It always touches a nerve, because Europe and the world think that America is no more than bad hot dogs and bad burgers. ~ Jose Andres
Developed Country quotes by Jose Andres
People look for retreats for themselves, in the country, by the coast, or in the hills, when it is possible for you to retreat into yourself any time you want. There ~ Arianna Huffington
Developed Country quotes by Arianna Huffington
When a great war has cut off the young men of a nation it never can be told thereafter what losses of scholars, poets, thinkers and great designers the country and the world have suffered. ~ James Vila Blake
Developed Country quotes by James Vila Blake
Books are the food of youth, the delight of old age; the ornament of prosperity, the refuge and comfort of adversity; a delight at home, and no hindrance abroad; companions by night, in traveling, in the country. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero
Developed Country quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
I think how veterans are treated in our country is an abomination. We don't have the draft any more, which is why so many soldiers come from working-class - rather than middle- or high-income families. Those wealthier families aren't affected, so they're not agitating for change. ~ Laurie Halse Anderson
Developed Country quotes by Laurie Halse Anderson
But the law is an odd thing. For instance, one country in Europe has a law that requires all its bakers to sell bread at the exact same price. A certain island has a law that forbids anyone from removing its fruit. And a town not too far from where you live has a law that bars me from coming within five miles of its borders. ~ Lemony Snicket
Developed Country quotes by Lemony Snicket
I don't think it is wrong, racist, immoral or anything, for a country to say 'we will decide what the cultural identity and the cultural destiny of this country will be and nobody else'. ~ John Howard
Developed Country quotes by John Howard
In isolated or country places no man's life is safe. ~ John White Geary
Developed Country quotes by John White Geary
In California, more than 1 million undocumented immigrants become eligible to apply for driver's licenses. People who entered or stayed in the country illegally will be able to drive legally in the state. ~ Anonymous
Developed Country quotes by Anonymous
A wind whistled an eerie tune, and even the horses responded to the misery, tearing across the country as if they wanted to get as far from this place as possible. ~ Melina Marchetta
Developed Country quotes by Melina Marchetta
There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you ... In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other; only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself. ~ Ruth Stout
Developed Country quotes by Ruth Stout
I watched Reagan turn around the country by lowering taxes and controlling spending, and I'm applying the same principles. ~ Luis Fortuno
Developed Country quotes by Luis Fortuno
Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves ... politically we are the aggressors and they defend themselves ... The country is theirs, because they inhabit it, whereas we want to come here and settle down, and in their view we want to take away from them their country. ~ David Ben-Gurion
Developed Country quotes by David Ben-Gurion
A deep cynicism is taking hold of the country, with more and more Americans convinced that big money calls the shots in Washington and that there is nothing that can be done about it. We must resist that conclusion and fight back on behalf of everyday citizens. Reform is possible, and it is imperative. ~ John Sarbanes
Developed Country quotes by John Sarbanes
All Catholics must make themselves felt as active elements in daily political life in the countries where they live. They must penetrate, wherever possible, in the administration of civil affairs; must constantly exert the utmost vigilance and energy to prevent the usages of liberty from going beyond the limits fixed by God's law. All Catholics should do all in their power to cause the constitutions of states and legislation to be modeled on the principles of the true Church. ~ Pope Leo XIII
Developed Country quotes by Pope Leo XIII
Unfortunately, the real focus in this country has not been on the rest of the world. It's been on our own issues and our own problems. Fair enough. But it means that our simple hopes that everything will just work out abroad aren't really coming to pass. ~ Jeffrey Sachs
Developed Country quotes by Jeffrey Sachs
The plain fact is that this country and other industrial countries are deeply dependent on animal exploitation to sustain their present economic structures. The plain fact is that we are more dependent on animal exploitation than were the states of the southern United States on human slavery ... . So, although there are more people concerned about animals and the environment, little progress has been made because those who profit from animal exploitation and the government that exists to serve their interests have a lot to lose and are not budging - not an inch. ~ Gary L. Francione
Developed Country quotes by Gary L. Francione
A collection of huts surrounded by a barbed wire fence, and in the huts lived 500 of the original inhabitants of our area. And so it went with many country towns around Australia. ~ Phillip Noyce
Developed Country quotes by Phillip Noyce
I'll never forget when me and Jason Matthews wrote the line, 'Don't be a tape player hater,' in 'Country Man,' I don't think I ever laughed harder. We didn't know where we were gonna put that in a song, but we knew we had to make it into a song. I just remember laughing and being so proud of such a goofy little line. ~ Luke Bryan
Developed Country quotes by Luke Bryan
Nothing is more difficult than to equalize the action of the government in reference to the various and diversified interests of the community; and nothing more easy than to pervert its powers into instruments to aggrandize and enrich one or more interests by oppressing and impoverishing the others; and this, too, under the operation of laws couched in general terms - and which, on their face, appear fair and equal. Nor is this the case in some particular communities only. It is so in all - the small and the great, the poor and the rich - irrespective of pursuits, productions, or degrees of civilization; with, however, this difference, that the more extensive and populous the country, the more diversified the condition and pursuits of its population; and the richer, more luxurious, and dissimilar the people, the more difficult is it to equalize the action of the government, and the more easy for one portion of the community to pervert its powers to oppress and plunder the other. ~ John C. Calhoun
Developed Country quotes by John C. Calhoun
I had never been out of the country before. And maybe this trip didn't technically count because, well, America had officially imploded and I hadn't needed a passport to cross the border, but I was more than a little disappointed we hadn't run into a mariachi band yet. Donde esta el Zombies? ~ Rachel Higginson
Developed Country quotes by Rachel Higginson
The arts and soldiering took time to acquire – time and discipline and desire. No, he was up against bullies. And bullies were cowards. These were mercenaries who acted for money. Shot as, on the other hand, took great pride that he performed his DUTIES for love of country and, though he didn't quite think of it in those terms, for love of his fellow soldiers. ~ Tom Clancy
Developed Country quotes by Tom Clancy
It's important for country fans to know that I'm not just trying to come in and take their money for a CD. ~ Jessica Simpson
Developed Country quotes by Jessica Simpson
When I fly British Airways, I can't help but read the free Daily Mail, which makes me glad I am leaving the country. ~ Martin Parr
Developed Country quotes by Martin Parr
To set us on the right course we need to create more opportunities for trade, particularly in developing countries, and we need to adjust global trade rules to better meet the needs of entrepreneurs in the 21st century, ~ Pascal Lamy
Developed Country quotes by Pascal Lamy
There's a huge swath of humanity that has developed verbal abilities to extract resources from guilt-ridden people.
They used to be priests, and now they're leftists. ~ Stefan Molyneux
Developed Country quotes by Stefan Molyneux
When you explain to people how this country [US] works, because we have a presidential single member district system there is no way to start a third party without injuring your friends that is if you start a liberal party you are going to elect conservatives and vice versa. ~ William Domhoff
Developed Country quotes by William Domhoff
The inconsistency of the institution of domestic slavery with the principles of the Declaration of Independence was seen and lamented ... no insincerity or hypocrisy can be fairly laid to their charge. Never from their lips was heard one syllable of attempt to justify the institution of slavery. They universally considered it as a reproach fastened upon them by the unnatural step-mother country and they saw that before the principles of the Declaration of Independence slavery, in common with every other mode of oppression, was destined sooner or later to be banished from the earth. ~ John Quincy Adams
Developed Country quotes by John Quincy Adams
We haven't seen any African country talk about recession. ~ Oscar N. Onyema
Developed Country quotes by Oscar N. Onyema
The image of life forces diluted and diseased by contact with the intruders revealed a telling insecurity. How confident were these men in the power of their idealized country or in themselves as its protectors? Where was the tradition of resilience and absorbing strength that their florid rhetoric celebrated at other times? In the very metaphor of infection, the nativists uncovered their fears that "America" was but a fragile essence. Like latter-day "defenders" who saw other alien dangers in communism, they attributed enormous influence to the enemy. Their angry words betrayed the desperation of those who half fear the battle is already lost. ~ David H. Bennett
Developed Country quotes by David H. Bennett
I think the economic logic behind dumping a load of toxic waste in the lowest wage country is impeccable and we should face up to it. ~ Lawrence Summers
Developed Country quotes by Lawrence Summers
I am a Republican because the United States is a republic, and the views we hold represent the foundation our country was built on so many years ago. ~ Maidie Norman
Developed Country quotes by Maidie Norman
No one built this country on their own. This nation is great because we built it together. ~ Barack Obama
Developed Country quotes by Barack Obama
