They continued to mount the winding staircase. A high wind, blowing through the loopholes, went rushing up the shaft, and filled the girl's skirts like a balloon, so that she was ashamed, until he took the hem of her dress and held it down for her. He did it perfectly simply, as he would have picked up her glove. She remembered this always. ~ D.H. Lawrence
Loopholes quotes by D.H. Lawrence
The tax code is very inefficient. Both the personal tax code and the corporate tax code. By closing loopholes and lowering rates, you could increase the efficiency of the tax code and create more incentives for people to invest. ~ Ben Bernanke
Loopholes quotes by Ben Bernanke
Reporters insist on portraying me as a curiosity. Rather like a talking horse."
"You're an unusual woman."
"Not really. Many thousands of women have the minds and temperaments to practice medicine. However, no medical school here will admit a female, which is why I had to study and train in France. I was fortunate enough to become certified before the British Medical Association closed the loopholes to prevent other women from doing the same."
"What did your father say about it?"
"At fist he was against the idea. He thought it indecent for a woman to have such an occupation. Viewing unclothed people, and so forth. However, as I pointed out to him, if we're made in God's image, there can be nothing wrong with the study of the human body. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Loopholes quotes by Lisa Kleypas
I liked the way the Jewish religion seemed, on the whole, to have devoted so much energy and art to finding loopholes in its crazy laws; I like what this seemed to me to imply about its attitude toward God, that dictatorial and arbitrary old fuck with his curses and his fiats and his yen for the smell of burnt shoulder meat. ~ Michael Chabon
Loopholes quotes by Michael Chabon
We think it's reasonable to provide mandatory, instant criminal background checks for every sale at every gun show. No loopholes anywhere for anyone. ~ Wayne LaPierre
Loopholes quotes by Wayne LaPierre
A tax loophole is something that benefits the other guy. If it benefits you, it is tax reform. ~ Russell B. Long
Loopholes quotes by Russell B. Long
I'm looking for loopholes. (Said when caught reading the Bible.). ~ W.C. Fields
Loopholes quotes by W.C. Fields
As professor of global peace studies at the International Islamic University of Malaysia I am committed to the ending of war also through criminalization of war, an approach that has not been sufficiently used in spite of the UN Charter outlawing war - with too many loopholes used buy aggressive countries. ~ Johan Galtung
Loopholes quotes by Johan Galtung
I have spent a lot of time searching through the Bible for loopholes. ~ W.C. Fields
Loopholes quotes by W.C. Fields
I bet there are still many openings and loopholes in art history ... which are being overlooked right now by millions of young people who complain that everything has already been done, so that they cannot do new breakthroughs. However, the history of the world says that we don't win the games, but we change the rules of the games. ~ Nam June Paik
Loopholes quotes by Nam June Paik
The key to revenue growth is tax reform that closes loopholes and that is pro-growth. Then with a growing economy, that's where your revenue growth comes in, not from higher taxes. ~ John Hoeven
Loopholes quotes by John Hoeven
If private-equity firms are as good at remaking companies as they claim, they don't need tax loopholes to make money. ~ James Surowiecki
Loopholes quotes by James Surowiecki
High tax rates in the upper income brackets allow politicians to win votes with class warfare rhetoric, painting their opponents as defenders of the rich. Meanwhile, the same politicians can win donations from the rich by creating tax loopholes that can keep the rich from actually paying those higher tax rates - or perhaps any taxes at all. What is worse than class warfare is phony class warfare. Slippery talk about 'fairness' is at the heart of this fraud by politicians seeking to squander more of the nation's resources. ~ Thomas Sowell
Loopholes quotes by Thomas Sowell
My goal in getting rid of tax loopholes is not to raise taxes. Our problem in Washington, D.C. is not a revenue problem, it is a spending problem. ~ Mike Pompeo
Loopholes quotes by Mike Pompeo
I was half lawyer; I always noticed the loopholes. ~ Rachel Hartman
Loopholes quotes by Rachel Hartman
I'm not saying my mother didn't like me, but she kept looking for loopholes in my birth certificate. ~ Les Dawson
Loopholes quotes by Les Dawson
Corporations are the only reason the tax code is so complicated in the first place. Those off-shore loopholes didn't get carved out by poor people. ~ Jon Stewart
Loopholes quotes by Jon Stewart
The point being we used to have a system that wasn't as rigged in how the tax structure functioned. The president [Barack Obama] and I have been trying to get rid of some of these loopholes for some time. Look, we have to change the corporate culture. ~ Joe Biden
Loopholes quotes by Joe Biden
The snag lies not in the laws themselves as we call them "loopholes" but the much anticipated upshots are knocked down by the failure to interpret in the intended perspective. ~ Henrietta Newton Martin
Loopholes quotes by Henrietta Newton Martin
We can find loopholes in a lot of things if we want to bend the rules of the church. ~ Vaughn J. Featherstone
Loopholes quotes by Vaughn J. Featherstone
Tis pleasant, through the loopholes of retreat,
To peep at such a world; to see the stir
Of the Great Babel, and not feel the crowd. ~ William Cowper
Loopholes quotes by William Cowper
Every word that [Jesus] spoke was historically true. Every word that He spoke was scientifically true. Every word that He spoke was ethically true. There were no loopholes in the moral conceptions
and statements of Jesus Christ. His ethical vision was wholly correct, correct in the age in which He lived and correct in every age that has followed it. ~ Billy Graham
Loopholes quotes by Billy Graham
I'm for Simpson-Bowles. It doesn't raise taxes, it closes loopholes and takes the money we would give to a few people and put it on the debt ~ Lindsey Graham
Loopholes quotes by Lindsey Graham
The moment you try working on what appears difficult to you, you will start noticing it's loopholes that you can breakthrough. ~ Israelmore Ayivor
Loopholes quotes by Israelmore Ayivor
The problem I had with understanding Catholicism was that it seemed like there were loopholes everywhere. In my young brain, I couldn't quite grasp how there could be any loopholes with the very strict set of rules they gave us. It really confused me. I began to wonder how I could follow these rules when I didn't even know what they truly meant. ~ Jenny McCarthy
Loopholes quotes by Jenny McCarthy
The American people likewise want to see enforcement first, no tricks, no triggers, no amnesty, enforcing existing laws and closing loopholes to reaffirm that our great Republic is, in fact, a nation of laws. ~ J. D. Hayworth
Loopholes quotes by J. D. Hayworth
He who lives wisely to himself and his own heart looks at the busy world through the loopholes of retreat, and does not want to mingle in the fray. ~ William Hazlitt
Loopholes quotes by William Hazlitt
What I want people to know is I went to Wall Street before the crash. I was the one saying you're going to wreck the economy because of these shenanigans with mortgages. I called to end the carried interest loophole that hedge fund managers enjoy. I proposed changes in CEO compensation. ~ Hillary Clinton
Loopholes quotes by Hillary Clinton
The universe seeks equilibriums; it prefers to disperse energy, disrupt organization, and maximize chaos. Life is designed to combat these forces. We slow down reactions, concentrate matter, and organize chemicals into compartments; we sort laundry on Wednesdays. "It sometimes seems as if curbing entropy is our quixotic purpose in the universe," James Gleick wrote. We live in the loopholes of natural laws, seeking extensions, exceptions and excuses. The laws of nature still mark the outer boundaries of permissibility - but life, in all its idiosyncratic, mad weirdness, flourishes by reading between the lines. ~ Siddhartha Mukherjee
Loopholes quotes by Siddhartha Mukherjee
I think we can have some tax reform, but that doesn't mean tax increases. We ought to make the, the rates flatter. We ought to get rid of a bunch of those loopholes. ~ John Kasich
Loopholes quotes by John Kasich
You call it a 'loophole' when the government still allows you some freedom. ~ Ludwig Von Mises
Loopholes quotes by Ludwig Von Mises
There was a loophole in the law that said if I was working, I could be in the clubs as long as I didn't drink alcohol and had someone with me. ~ TyDi
Loopholes quotes by TyDi
I see as white people finding loopholes in the slavery laws. ~ Chris Rock
Loopholes quotes by Chris Rock
Oh, she just happened to be a friend of the producer's. Or, oh, they've been trying to get her from the beginning and she just had a spot open up. There are always little loopholes, so I don't take anything personally anymore. ~ Ellen Muth
Loopholes quotes by Ellen Muth
The city of Copenhagen is a climate crime scene tonight, with the guilty men and women fleeing to the airport in shame. World leaders had a once in a generation chance to change the world for good, to avert catastrophic climate change. In the end they produced a poor deal full of loopholes big enough to fly Air Force One through. ~ Kumi Naidoo
Loopholes quotes by Kumi Naidoo
It is a mistake to reduce every decision about Christian living to a "Heaven-or-Hell issue."
For example, some ask if the Bible specifically says a certain action is a "sin" or will send them to "Hell." If not, they feel free to indulge in that action unreservedly and ignore any scriptural principles involved. But this approach is legalistic, which means living by rules or basing salvation on works. It treats the Bible as a law book, focusing on the letter and looking for loopholes.
By contrast, the Bible tells us that we are saved by grace through faith, not by our works (Ephesians 2:8-9). Grace teaches us how to live righteously, and faith leads us into obedience. (See Titus 2:11-12; Romans1:5; Hebrews 11:7-8.) ~ David K. Bernard
Loopholes quotes by David K. Bernard
So," she says slowly, reviewing my case item by item, "you like ice holes, sinkholes, peepholes and blowholes?"
I nod.
"But not loopholes?"
I nod again.
Hole this, hole that – even when I'm determined not to just be myself, I'm such an asshole. I just can't help it. ~ Lauren Baratz-Logsted
Loopholes quotes by Lauren Baratz-Logsted
Tax breaks can serve a vital role in keeping and bringing jobs to our state; however, without accountability, they are little more than loopholes at taxpayers' expense. ~ Jeanne Kohl-Welles
Loopholes quotes by Jeanne Kohl-Welles
I don't read thrillers, romance or mystery, and I don't read self-help books because I don't believe in shortcuts and loopholes. ~ Isabel Allende
Loopholes quotes by Isabel Allende
The Shawnees, Miamis and Delawares follow the custom of placing their children into the male gens by giving them a gentile name belonging to the father's gens, so that they may be entitled to inherit. "Innate casuistry of man, to change the objects by changing their names, and to find loopholes for breaking tradition inside of tradition where a direct interest was a sufficient motive." (Marx.) ~ Friedrich Engels
Loopholes quotes by Friedrich Engels
If Congress were to pass a 'flat' tax, you'd simply pay a fixed percentage of your income, and you wouldn't have to fill out any complicated forms, and there would be no loopholes for politically connected groups, and normal people would actually understand the tax laws, and giant talking broccoli stalks would come around and mow your lawn for free, because Congress is NOT going to pass a flat tax, you pathetic fool. ~ Dave Barry
Loopholes quotes by Dave Barry
You must accept responsibility for your actions, but not the credit for your achievements. ~ Denis Waitley
Loopholes quotes by Denis Waitley
In Prison Wearily, drearily, Half the day long, Flap the great banners High over the stone; Strangely and eerily Sounds the wind's song, Bending the banner-poles. While, all alone, Watching the loophole's spark, Lie I, with life all dark, Feet tethered, hands fettered Fast to the stone, The grim walls, square lettered With prisoned men's groan. Still strain the banner-poles Through the wind's song, Westward the banner rolls Over my wrong. ~ William Morris
Loopholes quotes by William Morris
The Democrats and Republicans need to come together. I've criticized Democrats for their unwillingness to address entitlement reform and Social Security and Medicare. Republicans, on the other hand, never saw a tax that they liked, even when it meant closing tax loopholes. They don't want to in any way support any revenue enhancements. ~ Antonio Villaraigosa
Loopholes quotes by Antonio Villaraigosa
That's the thing I'm worst at: resting. I have to be forced to do it. Sometimes I think of loopholes. 'Oh, I'm just going for a walk, up a dune that's 45 degrees, but I'm walking, so it's not a workout.' ~ Ronda Rousey
Loopholes quotes by Ronda Rousey
This is a radical jihadist group that is increasingly sophisticated in its ability, for example, to radicalize American citizens, in its inability to exploit loopholes in our legal immigration system, in its ability to capture and hold territory in the Middle East, as I outlined earlier, in multiple countries. ~ Marco Rubio
Loopholes quotes by Marco Rubio
Do away with the corporate loopholes that allow major profitable corporations to stash their money in the Cayman Islands and not pay a nickel in some cases in federal income taxes. ~ Lawrence O'Donnell
Loopholes quotes by Lawrence O'Donnell
Cats, no less liquid than their shadows,
Offer no angles to the wind.
They slip, diminished, neat, through loopholes
Less than themselves. ~ A.S.J. Tessimond
Loopholes quotes by A.S.J. Tessimond
I own that it is a good deal of a mystery to me how judges, of all persons in the world, should put their faith in dicta. A brief experience on the bench was enough to reveal to me all sorts of cracks and crevices and loopholes in my own opinions when picked up a few months after delivery and reread with due contrition. ~ Benjamin N. Cardozo
Loopholes quotes by Benjamin N. Cardozo
Fannie and Freddie made two-thirds of all subprime mortgages. That is not a free market institution. That entity, along with the Fed printing too much money back in '03 and '04, caused the housing collapse. So we need to take free markets seriously. That means we have to put an end to all these tax credits and tax deductions and loopholes. ~ Dave Brat
Loopholes quotes by Dave Brat
I don't believe in fate," she said at last. "But I do believe in ... loopholes. I think a lot of what keeps the world going is the result of accidents - happy or otherwise - and taking advantage of these. ~ Robin McKinley
Loopholes quotes by Robin McKinley
I don't believe there's a red state in America where people believe you should cut Medicare, Social Security and veterans' benefits rather than doing away with corporate tax loopholes. ~ Bernie Sanders
Loopholes quotes by Bernie Sanders
The God of Worms had evidently left tiny loopholes of chance in the worm's design, but He still wouldn't throw dice. ~ Siddhartha Mukherjee
Loopholes quotes by Siddhartha Mukherjee
It is important to give just the right instructions. He thinks in loopholes. ~ N.K. Jemisin
Loopholes quotes by N.K. Jemisin
Why is an accountant who knows the regulation and codes and takes advantage of tax loopholes that save you thousands of dollars each year good, But SEO's who take advantages of loopholes and flaws in Google's algorithm to bring you traffic that makes you thousands of dollars bad? ~ Michael Gray
Loopholes quotes by Michael Gray
Obama says his recreation consists of reading the Constitution ... looking for a loophole. ~ Mort Sahl
Loopholes quotes by Mort Sahl
Rather than address the priorities of the middle class, the Ryan budget is an attack on American seniors, students, workers, and families - all for the sake of protecting loopholes for the wealthy and corporations that ship jobs overseas. ~ Albio Sires
Loopholes quotes by Albio Sires
I love to help women cut through all the labeling loopholes to find the best personal and oral care products on the market. This includes, of course, ingredients, but also recyclable packaging, products with expiration dates, examining company values (which includes no animal testing), and more. ~ Sophie Heyman Uliano
Loopholes quotes by Sophie Heyman Uliano
Unfortunately, money in politics is an insidious thing - and a loophole in our campaign finance system was taken advantage of with money going to existing or new 527 groups with the sole purpose of influencing the election. ~ Olympia Snowe
Loopholes quotes by Olympia Snowe
Why I've advocated a proportional tax system. You make $10 billion, you pay a billion. You make $10, you pay one. And everybody gets treated the same way. And you get rid of the deductions, you get rid of all the loopholes. ~ Benjamin Carson
Loopholes quotes by Benjamin Carson
We stiffened the penalties for fraud, we extended nationwide efforts to make sure that payments are accurate and they closed a loophole in which people were gaming the system. We didn't change eligibility requirements or reduce the level of benefits. ~ Kevin Drum
Loopholes quotes by Kevin Drum
Congress has greatly tightened the loopholes terrorists can use to harm Americans. We need to do more. We need controls immediately on what forms of ID are adequate to board planes and enter secure sites. ~ Elton Gallegly
Loopholes quotes by Elton Gallegly
But that had been grief
this was joy. Yet that grief and this joy were alike outside all the ordinary conditions of life; they were loopholes, as it were, in that ordinary life through which there came glimpses of something sublime. And in the contemplation of this sublime something the soul was exalted to inconceivable heights of which it had before had no conception, while reason lagged behind, unable to keep up with it. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Loopholes quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Despite the best of intentions, people create rules variously and often in reaction to behaviors deemed unacceptable to the larger goals of the group. That is why we often find ourselves revising the rules when new conditions reveal their loopholes. ~ Dov Seidman
Loopholes quotes by Dov Seidman
When we're trying to form and keep habits, we often search - even unconsciously - for loopholes. We look for justifications that will excuse us from keeping this particular habit in this particular situation. ~ Gretchen Rubin
Loopholes quotes by Gretchen Rubin
The law is the anchor of our feelings. If the law holds our feelings well, it directs our feelings well. If however, the laws fails to hold our feelings well, our feelings become free enough for us to do what we feel freely ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Loopholes quotes by Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
President Obama has announced a task force to review the tax codes. He's concerned there are too many loopholes and too many people manipulating the system to avoid paying taxes. And that's just in his administration. ~ Jay Leno
Loopholes quotes by Jay Leno
The Democrats are obsessing about raising tax rates, while the GOP talks about closing loopholes. ~ Bob Beauprez
Loopholes quotes by Bob Beauprez
I think we should have basically the same tax policy that Germany, Japan, the U.K., everybody else has, which is a tax rate in the mid-20s and no loopholes. Zero. The U.S. has the most antiquated tax system. And that means some people are going to pay more taxes, and some people are going to pay less. ~ Jeffrey R. Immelt
Loopholes quotes by Jeffrey R. Immelt
It's a proper hideout, as long as one of us stays in here, they can't get at us, the door won't open. It's all down to Neville. He really gets this room. You've got to ask it for exactly what you need--like, 'I don't want any Carrow supporters to be able to get in'--and it'll do it for you! You've just got to make sure you close the loopholes! Neville's the man!"
"It's quite straightforward, really," said Neville modestly. "I'd been in here about a day and a half, and getting really hungry, and wishing I could get something to eat, and that's when the passage to the Hog's Head opened up. I went through it and met Aberforth. He's been providing us with food, because for some reason, that's the one thing the room doesn't really do."
"Yeah, well, food's one of the five exceptions to Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration," said Ron to general astonishment. ~ J.K. Rowling
Loopholes quotes by J.K. Rowling
Hold a retrospective approach in your spirit to figure out your loopholes and try to forge out for filling them for a lucrative self growth ~ Anshul Dubey
Loopholes quotes by Anshul Dubey
At some point in every racer's life he has to make his peace with cheating. I do not approve of cheating ... at all. Of course, like every successful racer, I differentiate between taking advantage of loopholes in the regulations, stretching the grey areas and outright cheating. In any given racing series I will not start the cheating. If someone else starts it, I will appeal to them and to the officials to stop it. If my efforts do not succeed, then I'll show them how it is done ... ~ Carroll Smith
Loopholes quotes by Carroll Smith
Oracular ambiguity or statistical probability provides loopholes, and discrepancies are expunged by Faith. ~ Ursula K. Le Guin
Loopholes quotes by Ursula K. Le Guin
She thought it over, but couldn't see any immediate loopholes other than the threat of her inner slut emerging, and she could darned well control that little bitch. ~ Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Loopholes quotes by Susan Elizabeth Phillips
In the stories of extravagant grace given to us by Jesus, there are no loopholes disqualifying us from God's love. ~ Philip Yancey
Loopholes quotes by Philip Yancey
The bourgeoisie are today evading taxation by bribery and through their connections; we must close all loopholes. ~ Vladimir Lenin
Loopholes quotes by Vladimir Lenin
I do not think we should tax people to a point where they are looking for tax loopholes and getting their money out of the country. ~ Anthea Turner
Loopholes quotes by Anthea Turner
