In 2006, the global economy was doing well. In India, the political and economic situation was stable. All key macroeconomic indicators reflected an economy that was in robust good health. ~ Baba Kalyani
Indicators quotes by Baba Kalyani
The continued increase in many crime indicators and the fact that the overall crime rate has not seen a marked decrease while the Liberals have been in power is a clear indication that the Liberal approach to combating crime, as on so many other issues, has failed. ~ Stephen Harper
Indicators quotes by Stephen Harper
Meditation is one of the most therapeutic things that one can do for the body and mind. Specifically, studies demonstrate a reduction in blood pressure, heart rate, and other stress marker indicators. ~ Tim McCarthy
Indicators quotes by Tim McCarthy
The Great Idea in advertising is far more than the sum of the recognition scores, the ratings and all the other superficial indicators of its success; it is in the realm of myth, to which measurements cannot apply. ~ Leo Bogart
Indicators quotes by Leo Bogart
The innovation indicators vary depending on who is doing the measuring, and how they are measuring. It's contextual. ~ Pearl Zhu
Indicators quotes by Pearl Zhu
Penguins are an indicator of the health of our watery planet, and if they are unable to survive, we had better take notice or we might find our own survival threatened. ~ Roger Tory Peterson
Indicators quotes by Roger Tory Peterson
Norway, Iceland, Australia, Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands, Denmark, and the United Kingdom are among the least religious societies on [E]arth. According to the United Nations' Human Development Report (2005) they are also the healthiest, as indicated by life expectancy, adult literacy, per capita income, educational attainment, gender equality, homicide rate, and infant mortality. Insofar as there is a crime problem in Western Europe, it is largely the product of immigration. Seventy percent of the inmates of France's jails, for instance, are Muslim. The Muslims of Western Europe are generally not atheists. Conversely, the fifty nations now ranked lowest in terms of the United Nations' [H]uman [D]evelopment [I]ndex are unwaveringly religious.
Other analyses paint the same picture: the United States is unique among wealthy democracies in its level of religious adherence; it is also uniquely beleaguered by high rates of homicide, abortion, teen pregnancy, sexually transmitted disease, and infant mortality. The same comparison holds true within the United States itself: Southern and Midwestern states, characterized by the highest levels of religious literalism, are especially plagued by the above indicators of societal dysfunction, while the comparatively secular states of the Northeast conform to European norms. ~ Sam Harris
Indicators quotes by Sam Harris
...Analyses of globalization may also include statistics on poverty and human development indicators such as health, life expectancy, education, and infant mortality. While such statistics are important and can provide powerful statements about reality, perspectives based mainly or exclusively on aggredate data remove us from the lives of real, embodied human beings. A shortcoming of these kinds of distant analyses is that they often miss or gloss over how peopple experience capitalist globalization in and on their bodies, and how embodied subjects in marginalized communities, both in the Global North and South, have challenged and resisted such powerful social forces (38). ~ Barbara Sutton
Indicators quotes by Barbara Sutton
The health of the second amendment is the primary indicator of the overall health of the nation. ~ John Longenecker
Indicators quotes by John Longenecker
Just because we feel offended doesn't mean we must be offended. Feelings are indicators not dictators. ~ Lysa TerKeurst
Indicators quotes by Lysa TerKeurst
The near absence of bargains works as a reverse indicator for us. When we find there is little worth buying, there is probably much worth selling. ~ Seth Klarman
Indicators quotes by Seth Klarman
Rather than requiring the domain model to specifically support the necessary view properties, it is the responsibility of the Presentation Model to derive the view-specific indicators and properties from the state of the domain model. ~ Anonymous
Indicators quotes by Anonymous
Discrepancies in educational performances - This is often one of the most obvious indicators of dyslexia. ~ Gavin Reid
Indicators quotes by Gavin Reid
Outcomes indicators include product vision, business objectives, and capabilities (high-level product functionality), not detail requirements. These outcome characteristics define a releasable product and quality objectives define a reliable and adaptable (works today, easy to enhance) product. These are the critical value traits, then teams need to strive to meet constraints - scope, schedule, and cost - but as secondary in importance to the value components. In many, if not most, agile projects schedule becomes the most critical constraint and is timeboxed (fixed) and scope varies. ~ Jim Highsmith
Indicators quotes by Jim Highsmith
Material things should complement a good life, not be used as indicators of a good life. ~ Joan Ambu
Indicators quotes by Joan Ambu
And you'd see that 2/28 interest only ARM mortgages were only 5.85% of the pool in early 2004, but by late 2004 they were 17.48% of the pool, and by late summer 2005 25.34% of the pool. Yet average FICO [consumer credit] scores for the pool, percent of no-doc ["Liar"] loan to value measures and other indicators were pretty static ... . The point is that these measures could stay roughly static, but the overall pool of mortgages being issued, packaged and sold off was worsening in quality, because for the same average FICO scores or the same average loan to value, you were getting a higher percentage of interest only mortgages. ~ Michael Lewis
Indicators quotes by Michael Lewis
What if there were no punch lines? What if there were no indicators? What if I created tension and never released it? What if I headed for a climax, but all I delivered was an anticlimax? What would the audience do with all that tension? Theoretically, it would have to come out sometime. But if I kept denying them the formality of a punch line, the audience would eventually pick their own place to laugh, essentially out of desperation. This type of laugh seemed stronger to me, as they would be laughing at something they chose, rather than being told exactly when to laugh. ~ Steve Martin
Indicators quotes by Steve Martin
One of the greatest indicators of our own spiritual maturity is revealed in how we respond to the weaknesses, the inexperience, and the potentially offensive actions of others. ~ David A. Bednar
Indicators quotes by David A. Bednar
Someday when we get around to writing a genealogy of our failures, inadequacies, and disappointments, an important place in such a study will be the books we never read, for whatever reason. Aside from the music we never listened to, the movies we never watched, or the old archives and maps we never explored, the books we never read will be one of the indicators of our anachronisms and our flawed humanity. ~ Boris Gunjevic
Indicators quotes by Boris Gunjevic
Bloody Men Bloody men are like bloody buses - You wait for about a year - And as soon as one approaches your stop Two or three others appear. You look at them flashing their indicators, Offering you a ride. You're trying to read the destinations, You haven't much time to decide. If you make a mistake, there is no turning back. Jump off, and you'll stand there and gaze While the cars and taxis and lorries go by And the minutes, the hours, the days. Wendy Cope ~ Daisy Goodwin
Indicators quotes by Daisy Goodwin
I have nowhere claimed nor even implied that unbelief is a guarantee of good conduct or even an indicator of it. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Indicators quotes by Christopher Hitchens
It would have been possible to structure my photographs in such a way that no indicators of the present were discernible. However, I wanted to incorporate into the project as a whole the jostling of time-frames I would feel as I set up my tripod on various rocky promontories. ~ John Pfahl
Indicators quotes by John Pfahl
You are not your grade; you are better than that. Grades are indicators of time management and a rate of success. ~ Anonymous
Indicators quotes by Anonymous
Infant mortality and life expectancy are reasonable indicators of general well-being in a society. ~ P. J. O'Rourke
Indicators quotes by P. J. O'Rourke
What does the Atonement have to do with missionary work? Any time we experience the blessings of the Atonement in our lives, we cannot help but have a concern for the welfare of others ... A great indicator of one's personal conversion is the desire to share the gospel with others. ~ Ezra Taft Benson
Indicators quotes by Ezra Taft Benson
[It is important] not to mistake risk indicators for risk mechanisms. On the whole, at any one point in time, poverty and social disadvantage are accompanied by an increased risk of psychopathology. The secular trend data, however, are persuasive in showing that it is most unlikely that the risk mechanism lies in either poverty or poor living conditions per se. Rather, the evidence suggests that the effect comes about because poverty is, in turn associated with family disorganization and breakup, which are rather nearer to the relevant risk mechanisms (p. 363). Stress research: Accomplishments and tasks ahead. Pp. 354-385 in Stress, Risk and Resilience in Children and Adolescents: Processes, Mechanisms, and Interventions. (R.J. Haggerty, L.R. Sherrod, N. Garmezy, & M, Rutter, eds) ~ Michael Rutter
Indicators quotes by Michael Rutter
People have to take control of their own lives. Education is key because it also raises other social indicators like healthcare. ~ Azim Premji
Indicators quotes by Azim Premji
Sometimes you walk into things, that, if you were paying attention, vibrationally, you would know right from the beginning that it wasn't what you are wanting. In most cases, your initial knee-jerk response was a pretty good indicator of how it was going to turn out later. The things that give most of you the most grief are those things that initially you had a feeling response about, but then you talked yourself out of it for one reason or another. ~ Esther Hicks
Indicators quotes by Esther Hicks
Fear is your friend. It is an indicator. Sometimes it shows you what you shouldn't do, more often than not it shows you what you should do. ~ Tim Ferriss
Indicators quotes by Tim Ferriss
Butterflies may be better indicators of the health of our environment than birds. ~ Roger Tory Peterson
Indicators quotes by Roger Tory Peterson
One of the best indicators of student achievement is the academic success of the mother in the home. ~ Tony Danza
Indicators quotes by Tony Danza
Traditionally, Young Republicans have been a leading indicator of the direction of the party. ~ Roger Stone
Indicators quotes by Roger Stone
One component of the leading economic indicators is the yield curve. Bond investors keep a close eye on this, as it illustrates the spread or difference between long-term interest rates and short-term ones. ~ Kenneth Fisher
Indicators quotes by Kenneth Fisher
If we look at the way an industrial producer creates new products, we see a long list of trials and errors and eventually improvement in quality at a lower cost. Urban policies and strategies, by contrast, often do not follow this logic; they are often repeated even when it is well known that they failed. For instance, policies like rent control, greenbelts, new light rail transports, among others, are constantly repeated in spite of a near consensus on their failure to achieve their objectives. A quantitative evaluation of the failure of these policies is usually well documented through special reports or academic papers; it is seldom produced internally by cities, however, and the information does not seem to reach urban decision makers. Only a systematic analysis of data through indicators allows urban policies to be improved over time and failing policies to be abandoned. But as Angus Deaton wrote: 'without data, anyone who does anything is free to claim success. ~ Alain Bertaud
Indicators quotes by Alain Bertaud
The sentiment indicators that we will examine later prove that market participants herd. By definition, herding means that the emotional part of the brain, the limbic system, is in charge. Remember, this is the same part of the brain that controls fighting and the emotion of love. Do you ever think rationally when it comes to fighting or love? Similarly, the neocortex (rational thought) is subservient in financial speculation. Therefore, the study of sentiment indicators, or the study of crowds, is more important than the study of economic indicators, if you wish to make money trading. The ~ Jamie Saettele
Indicators quotes by Jamie Saettele
I want us to be judged by the impact we have on the health of the people of Africa and the health of women. Improvements in the health of the people of Africa and the health of women are key indicators of the performance of WHO. This is a health organization for the whole world ... But we must focus our attention on the people in greatest need. ~ Margaret Chan
Indicators quotes by Margaret Chan
This framing accents the importance of building a tidier system, one that incorporates the array of existing child care centers, then pushes to make their classrooms more uniform, with a socialization agenda "aligned" with the curricular content that first or second graders are expected to know. Like the common school movement, uniform indicators of quality, centralized regulation, more highly credientialed teachers are to ensure that instruction
rather than creating engaging activities for children to explore
will be delivered in more uniform ways. And the state signals to parents that this is now the appropriate way to raise one's three- or four-year-old. Modern child rearing is equated with systems building in the eyes of universal pre-kindergarten advocates
and parents hear this discourse through upbeat articles in daily newspapers, public service annoucement, and from school authorities. ~ Bruce Fuller
Indicators quotes by Bruce Fuller
...distinction between growth and development. Aggregate growth in national economic indicators need not mean an improved life for the majority of the people. ~ Raewyn Connell And Nour Dados
Indicators quotes by Raewyn Connell And Nour Dados
The Age of Reason has turned out to be the Age of Structure; a time when, in the absence of purpose, the drive for power as a value in itself has become the principal indicator of social approval. And the winning of power has become the measure of social merit. ~ John Ralston Saul
Indicators quotes by John Ralston Saul
Venezuelans are tired of 14 years of promises and no results. The only things growing are inflation, murder and crime. The good indicators - production, education and jobs - are all falling. ~ Henrique Capriles Radonski
Indicators quotes by Henrique Capriles Radonski
History shows one important fact: the results of competitive special elections from Hawaii to New York are poor indicators of broader trends or future general election outcomes. ~ Pete Sessions
Indicators quotes by Pete Sessions
. . . the authors had developed indices that could be employed to measure the state of a civilization, to determine if society was healthy, in decline, or perhaps even dead. The indicators keyed in on everything from the accumulation of refuse to declines in everyday civility. They looked at how a society treated its most vulnerable citizens; examined a culture's architecture, gauging its scale in relation to humans and the surrounding natural world. One of the primary indicators, however, was a measure of the ability of a society's citizens to listen to each other and truly hear what was being said. It evaluated by gradations the ability of individuals to stand motionless for prolonged periods, receptive to their surroundings. ~ Robert H. Lieberman
Indicators quotes by Robert H. Lieberman
these kind of features are strong indicators of a strong oral tradition, that the writing was more an aid of what people have already memorized, that you went to the text already knowing what it should say. ~ Keith E. Small
Indicators quotes by Keith E. Small
The loss of psalmody in the church is one of the early indicators of the loss of faith. ~ Kevin Swanson
Indicators quotes by Kevin Swanson
A group of psychologists say they have discovered twenty-three different body language indicators that show whether or not a person is lying. If you would like to see all twenty-three at the same time, they recommend taking a guided tour of the White House ~ Conan O'Brien
Indicators quotes by Conan O'Brien
Just a tiny red sliver remains in the battery icon. I wish humans came with the same kind of indicator ... it
would make things much easier. You would know how to deal with every person on the planet, and I'd always be in the red. ~ Pete Wentz
Indicators quotes by Pete Wentz
You do not need to be a millionaire to feel successful or be successful. Financial wealth is only one of many possible indicators of success. However, to achieve your dreams and life goals you're going to need money. And making it requires financial planning and goalsetting. I do not know of any successful person who has been able to simply ignore their finances. ~ Nigel Cumberland
Indicators quotes by Nigel Cumberland
At independence Kenya's economic indicators were equal to those of South Korea, but 45 years down the road, Korea's economy is 40 times that of Kenya. The mediocrity of leadership is across the continent . ~ Raila Odinga
Indicators quotes by Raila Odinga
Beauty is not skin-deep; it can be a means of self-affirmation, a true indicator of personality and confidence. ~ Aimee Mullins
Indicators quotes by Aimee Mullins
Thanks to relentless media exposure and little-understood financing and sales practices, not to mention the perception of autos as important status indicators, most people replace their cars on a regular basis. ~ Ian Lamont
Indicators quotes by Ian Lamont
Symptoms are never just secondary failures or distortions of the basically sound System - they are indicators that there is something "rotten" (antagonistic, inconsistent) in the very heart of the System. ~ Slavoj Zizek
Indicators quotes by Slavoj Zizek
Governments and politicians use the family as an indicator of the health and strength of social life. Politicians fear that any weakening of family life will in some way sap the vitality of national life ... The family is also important to businessmen. It is one of the major purchasing groups of our consumer society. ~ Adrian Wilson
Indicators quotes by Adrian Wilson
Absolute size by itself is no indicator of success and achievement, let alone of managerial competence. Being the right size is. ~ Peter Drucker
Indicators quotes by Peter Drucker
Charts are a leading indicator of fundamental analysis ~ John Murphy
Indicators quotes by John Murphy
Race and class are extremely reliable indicators as to where one might find the good stuff, like parks and trees, and where one might find the bad stuff, like power plants and waste facilities. ~ Majora Carter
Indicators quotes by Majora Carter
Result indicators that lie beneath KRIs could include: Net profit on key product lines Sales made yesterday Customer complaints from key customers Hospital bed utilization in week ~ Douglas W. Hubbard
Indicators quotes by Douglas W. Hubbard
Spent time-like a spent bullet-tells us much about its "processor." for we see not only the residual slug, but indicators of how spent time is grooved by a man's soul, a reliable indicator of what a man is like. ~ Neal A. Maxwell
Indicators quotes by Neal A. Maxwell
As spiritual searchers we need to become freer and freer of the attachment to our own smallness in which we get occupied with me-me-me. Pondering on large ideas or standing in front of things which remind us of a vast scale can free us from acquisitiveness and competitiveness and from our likes and dislikes. If we sit with an increasing stillness of the body, and attune our mind to the sky or to the ocean or to the myriad stars at night, or any other indicators of vastness, the mind gradually stills and the heart is filled with quiet joy. Also recalling our own experiences in which we acted generously or with compassion for the simple delight of it without expectation of any gain can give us more confidence in the existence of a deeper goodness from which we may deviate. (39) ~ Ravi Ravindra
Indicators quotes by Ravi Ravindra
Because when something happens, she's the person I want to tell. The most basic indicator of love. ~ David Levithan
Indicators quotes by David Levithan
You see it in jazz musicians, who never rehearse exactly what they do, but just seem to know when to take center stage, when to fade into the background. When jazz artists were compared with classical musicians in brain function, they showed more neural indicators of self-awareness.15 As one jazz artist put it, In jazz you have to tune in to how your body is feeling so you know when to riff. ~ Daniel Goleman
Indicators quotes by Daniel Goleman
Snark from nerds is a leading indicator that I'm wasting their time and when I find it, I ask questions until I understand the inefficiency so I can change it or explain it. ~ Rands
Indicators quotes by Rands
I will stipulate to having both French sea salt and a big bottle of extra virgin in my kitchen. And while the presence of both might go some small distance in pigeonholing me demographically, neither one of them makes me a good person. They are mute and useless indicators of the content of my character. ~ David Rakoff
Indicators quotes by David Rakoff
The way we use our money is a barometer of our present spiritual condition. Our neglect of the poor illustrates much about where our hearts lie. But even more than that, the way we use our money is an indicator of our eternal destination. The mark of Christ followers is that their hearts are in heaven and their treasures are spent there ~ David Platt
Indicators quotes by David Platt
A tin roof is one of the greatest indicators of prosperity in the developing world. ~ Chelsea Clinton
Indicators quotes by Chelsea Clinton
In an attempt to develop a tool to help organizations begin to identify these errors, the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) developed a global trigger tool (GTT).9 Briefly, the GTT provides a standard methodology for reviewing patient records for triggers, or indicators, of potential adverse events. ~ Thomas H. Davenport
Indicators quotes by Thomas H. Davenport
Endurance is a key indicator of spiritual fitness. ~ Alistair Begg
Indicators quotes by Alistair Begg
Children are a kind of indicator species. If we can build a successful city for children, we will have a successful city for all people. ~ Enrique Penalosa
Indicators quotes by Enrique Penalosa
Passion is lifted from the earth itself by the muddy hands of the young; it travels along grass-stained sleeves to the heart. If we are going to save environmentalism and the environment, we must also save an endangered indicator species: the child in nature. ~ Richard Louv
Indicators quotes by Richard Louv
The more fear we feel about a specific enterprise, the more certain we can be that that enterprise is important to us and to the growth of our soul, ~ Steven Pressfield
Indicators quotes by Steven Pressfield
David Buss has amassed a lot of evidence that human females across many cultures tend to prefer males who have high social status, good income, ambition, intelligence, and energy--contrary to the views of some cultural anthropologists, who assume that people vary capriciously in their sexual preferences across different cultures. He interpreted this as evidence that women evolved to prefer good providers who could support their families by acquiring and defending resources I respect his data enormously, but disagree with his interpretation.

The traits women prefer are certainly correlated with male abilities to provide material benefits, but they are also correlated with heritable fitness. If the same traits can work both as fitness indicators and as wealth indicators, so much the better. The problem comes when we try to project wealth indicators back into a Pleistocene past when money did not exist, when status did not imply wealth, and when bands did not stay in one place long enough to defend piles of resources. Ancestral women may have preferred intelligent, energetic men for their ability to hunt more effectively and provide their children with more meat. But I would suggest it was much more important that intelligent men tended to produce intelligent, energetic children more likely to survive and reproduce, whether or not their father stayed around. In other words, I think evolutionary psychology has put too much emphasis on male resources instead of male fit ~ Geoffrey Miller
Indicators quotes by Geoffrey Miller
Research has shown that focusing on appreciation and gratitude has all kinds of positive health effects, lowering indicators of disease-causing stress and increasing the flow of healthy hormones in our bloodstreams. ~ Martha N. Beck
Indicators quotes by Martha N. Beck
Given that my first crush was a mythical centaur hybrid of Garrison Keillor and Ted Danson, you won't be surprised to learn that I was a late bloomer. There were other indicators, too, like my troll doll earring collection and the fact that I was naturally drawn to gorgeous best friends who transformed me, by comparison, into the homely sidekick (in troll doll earrings ~ Una LaMarche
Indicators quotes by Una LaMarche
Are you paralyzed with fear? That's a good sign. Fear is good. Like self-doubt, fear is an indicator. Fear tells us what we have to do. Remember one rule of thumb: the more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it. ~ Steven Pressfield
Indicators quotes by Steven Pressfield
His continued success in the field had blinded him. He was so good at his job that the suggestion that he might not have been infallible was ridiculous. Now, as he examined his file with the benefit of hindsight, he saw that he had missed a series of indicators. ~ Mark Dawson
Indicators quotes by Mark Dawson
Some of the indicators of a properly functioning GI tract include having two bowel movements a day, feeling good after eating, sleeping soundly, having energy throughout the day, and experiencing no extreme mood swings or food cravings. ~ Teri Arranga
Indicators quotes by Teri Arranga
Actually, one of the better indicators historically of how well the stock market will do is just a Gallup poll, when you ask Americans if you think it's a good time to invest in stocks, except it goes the opposite direction of what you would expect. When the markets going up, it in fact makes it more prone toward decline. ~ Nate Silver
Indicators quotes by Nate Silver
The reality is that business and investment spending are the true leading indicators of the economy and the stock market. If you want to know where the stock market is headed, forget about consumer spending and retail sales figures. Look to business spending, price inflation, interest rates, and productivity gains. ~ Mark Skousen
Indicators quotes by Mark Skousen
Maybe we should be glad, finally, that the word can't go where the heart can, not completely. It's freeing, to think there's always an aspect of us outside the grasp of speech, the common stuff of language. Love is common, too, absolutely so - and yet our words for it only point to it; they do not describe it. They are indicators of something immense: the word love is merely a sign that means something like This way to the mountain. ~ Mark Doty
Indicators quotes by Mark Doty
It has been found that people are more sensitive to negative faces, picking sad and angry expressions out of a crowd more quickly than positive ones. This is perhaps because we use them as indicators of threat. ~ Glen Wilson
Indicators quotes by Glen Wilson
I slide my feet onto the seat next to him, my ankle brushing against his thigh. "No shallowness of breath? No rapidly beating heart?"
He rests one hand on my foot as he continues to mess with his phone. His eyes meet mine in amusement. "Are those the indicators? I might have an issue after all. ~ Kasie West
Indicators quotes by Kasie West
Photographs ... are the most curious indicators of reality. ~ Erica Jong
Indicators quotes by Erica Jong
Success for me is simply empowerment to realize your humanity and then perhaps you achieve contentment. Wealth, power and fame are trappings rather than indicators of success. ~ Joseph V. Angeles
Indicators quotes by Joseph V. Angeles
And everyone hooted! It was standard practice to hoot. Indicators were and occasional added extra. ~ Braam Malherbe
Indicators quotes by Braam Malherbe
The brand is just a lagging indicator of a company's culture. ~ Tony Hsieh
Indicators quotes by Tony Hsieh
There is no better indicators of character than the books you have. ~ John Dunning
Indicators quotes by John Dunning
I do not like measuring using soft indicators, like RTs or likes. I prefer the hardcore financial values. The ISO 10668:2010 is an international valuation standard that is very valuable if you are interested in how to measure a brand. ~ F. Marco-Serrano
Indicators quotes by F. Marco-Serrano
We are going through tough economic times but things are looking up, and the indicators are improving not only for large corporations but also for small business. ~ George Pataki
Indicators quotes by George Pataki
One of the biggest indicators for success in life is having a few crazy relatives. So long as you get only some of the crazy genes, you don't end up crazy; you merely end up different. And it's that difference that gives you an edge, that makes you successfull. ~ Douglas Coupland
Indicators quotes by Douglas Coupland
Joy and happiness are the indicators of balance in a human machine ... An inner joyousness, amounting to ecstasy, is the normal condition of the genius mind. Any lack of that joyousness develops body-destroying toxins. That inner ecstasy of the mind is the secret fountain of perpetual youth and strength in any man. He who finds it finds omnipotence and omniscience. ~ Walter Russell
Indicators quotes by Walter Russell
The intensity of our desire to share the gospel is a great indicator of the extent of our personal conversion. ~ Dallin H. Oaks
Indicators quotes by Dallin H. Oaks
They ended up in a amusement arcade on Old Compton Street, where Nora insisted Stephen join her on one of those dance-step machines, and as he stood next to her, stomping out a dance routine on the illuminated dance floor, he had a sudden anxiety that Nora might be one of those kooky, free-spirit types, the kind of irreverent life-force who, in the imaginary romantic comedy currently playing in his head, turns the hero's narrow life upside down, etc., etc. The acid test for free-spirited kookiness is to show the subject a field of fresh snow; if they flop on their backs and make snow-angels, then the test is positive. In the absence of snow, Stephan resolved to keep an eye open for other tell-tale kookiness indicators: a propensity for wacky hats, zany mismatched socks, leaf-kicking, a disproportionate enthusiasm for karaoke, kite - flying and light-hearted shoplifting, the whole Holly Golightly act. ~ David Nicholls
Indicators quotes by David Nicholls
The number of books students read ... is among the best indicators of student reading development. ~ Mike Schmoker
Indicators quotes by Mike Schmoker
Countries with a high percentage of nonbelievers are among the freest, most stable, best-educated, and healthiest nations on earth. When nations are ranked according to a human-development index, which measures such factors as life expectancy, literacy rates, and educational attainment, the five highest-ranked countries
Norway, Sweden, Australia, Canada, and the Netherlands
all have high degrees of nonbelief. Of the fifty countires at the bottom of the index, all are intensly religious. The nations with the highest homicide rates tend to be more religious; those with the greatest levels of gender equality are the least religious. These associations say nothing about whether atheism leads to positive social indicators or the other way around. But the idea that atheists are somehow less moral, honest, or trustworthy have been disproven by study after study. ~ Greg Graffin
Indicators quotes by Greg Graffin
The best indicator of a sociopath serial bully is not a clinical diagnosis but the trail of devastation and destruction of lives and livelihoods surrounding this individual throughout their life. ~ Tim Field
Indicators quotes by Tim Field
One thing is certain: Yelling at someone who is already out of control can only lead to further dysregulation. Just as your dog cowers if you shout and wags his tail when you speak in a high singsong, we humans respond to harsh voices with fear, anger, or shutdown and to playful tones by opening up and relaxing. We simply cannot help but respond to these indicators of safety or danger. ~ Bessel A. Van Der Kolk
Indicators quotes by Bessel A. Van Der Kolk
It is of no use to hope that we shall be well rooted if no rough winds pass over us. Those old gnarlings on the root of the oak tree, and those strange twistings of the branches, all tell of the many storms that have swept over it, and they are also indicators of the depth into which the roots have forced their way. So the Christian is made strong, and firmly rooted by all the trials and storms of life. Shrink not then from the tempestuous winds of trial, but take comfort, believing that by their rough discipline God is fulfilling this benediction to you. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Indicators quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
The data is going to indicate sadly that when the Obama administration is over, black people will have lost ground in every single leading economic indicator category.. ~ Tavis Smiley
Indicators quotes by Tavis Smiley
Words do have purpose; they are essential clues in determining actions, or lack thereof. ~ T.F. Hodge
Indicators quotes by T.F. Hodge
Some of the best indicators of a country developing along the right lines are healthy mothers giving birth to healthy children who are assured of good care and a sound education that will enable them to face the challenges of a changing world. ~ Aung San Suu Kyi
Indicators quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
Most of the books I have are indicators of my insecurity. I really wanted to be an intellectual. I really wanted to understand Sartre. I thought that was what made people smart. I have tried to read Being and Nothingness no fewer than twenty times in my life. I really thought that every answer had to be in that book. Maybe it is. The truth is, I can't read anything with any distance. Every book is a self-help book to me. Just having them makes me feel better. I underline profusely but I don't retain much. Reading is like a drug. When I am reading from these books it feels like I am thinking what is being read, and that gives me a rush. That is enough. I glean what I can. I finish some of the unfinished thoughts lingering around in my head by adding the thoughts of geniuses and I build from there. There are bookmarks in most of the denser tomes at around page 20 to 40 because that was where I said, "I get it." Then I put them back on the shelf. ~ Marc Maron
Indicators quotes by Marc Maron
