I once worked at a record label called London Records. The company was owned by Roger Ames, one of the most successful figures in the British music industry. Roger always placed a value on loafing, on holidays, on not being in the office all the time. ~ John Niven
Roger Ames quotes by John Niven
Thus the expert in battle moves the enemy, and is not moved by him. ~ Sun Tzu
Roger Ames quotes by Sun Tzu
Hence a commander who advances without any thought of winning personal fame and withdraws in spite of certain punishment, whose only concern is to protect his people and promote the interests of his ruler, is the nation's treasure. Because he fusses over his men as if they were infants, they will accompany him into the deepest valleys; because he fusses over his men as if they were his own beloved sons, they will die by his side. If he is generous with them and yet they do not do as he tells them, if he loves them and yet they do not obey his commands, if he is so undisciplined with them that he cannot bring them into proper order, they will be like spoiled children who can be put to no good use at all. ~ Sun Tzu
Roger Ames quotes by Sun Tzu
I've always loved the songs of the sea. I was first introduced to them back in 1957, at the Old Town School of Folk Music. I used to go to Pete Seeger concerts, and he would do songs like 'Ruben Ranzo' and talk about how the sailors sang songs to do their work - to raise the anchors, pull up the sails and that sort of thing. ~ Roger McGuinn
Roger Ames quotes by Roger McGuinn
I consider myself to have been the bridge between the shotgun and the binoculars in bird watching. Before I came along, the primary way to observe birds was to shoot them and stuff them. ~ Roger Tory Peterson
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Tory Peterson
It's not just the NFL. Every other league has a draft. It has been fundamental to the success of professional sports. ~ Roger Goodell
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Goodell
Ordinary photons do have spin, they have a notion of helicity so they spin around their direction on motion. ~ Roger Penrose
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Penrose
For a hundred and fifty years, in the pasture of dead horses,
roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
frost heaved your bones in the ground
old toilers, soil makers:
O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost. ~ Donald Hall
Roger Ames quotes by Donald Hall
In mine opinion, love is fitter than fear, gentleness better than beating, to bring up a child rightly in learning. ~ Roger Ascham
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Ascham
There was noise in the corridor outside Alice's office; and though it was nothing of concern, they separated. Roger stood, fingers tucked into his waistcoat pockets, admiring prints on the wall that held no interest for him. The noise was Melanie, but her voice, a length of razor wire wrapped in a soufflé, eventually faded. ~ Andrew Barrett
Roger Ames quotes by Andrew Barrett
I suppose Roger had the license to do anything that fitted the venue. ~ Neil Innes
Roger Ames quotes by Neil Innes
If you shoot with a billion cameras, then there's no perspective. You want to use one shot at a time, so it's better to discover what that is before you shoot, rather than trying to make something in the cutting room, and then it just becomes generic. ~ Roger Deakins
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Deakins
Television and I grew up together. ~ Roger Ailes
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Ailes
He that would live clear of envy must lay his finger on his mouth, and keep his hand out of the ink-pot. ~ Roger L'Estrange
Roger Ames quotes by Roger L'Estrange
Birds are an ecological litmus paper. ~ Roger Tory Peterson
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Tory Peterson
There was really nothing shocking in what Brigitte did, what was provocative was her natural sensuality. ~ Roger Vadim
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Vadim
Art is significant deformity. ~ Roger Fry
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Fry
I hope so. God, I've practiced so much that I-you don't want to be worse five years later. I feel I have a great game today. I know how hard it is to pull off those great shots, and I know how easy it is to miss, so I'm more aware of these things. But I'm so happy I'm at the age I am right now because I had such a great run and I know there's still more possible. ~ Roger Federer
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Federer
What Godel and Rosser showed is that the consistency of a (sufficiently extensive) formal system is something that lies outside the power of the formal system itself to establish. ~ Roger Penrose
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Penrose
Anytime you make a person into something other than himself, you make a monster. ~ Roger Rosenblatt
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Rosenblatt
God is too large to be housed under one roof, ~ Roger Williams
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Williams
It is said that the human brain divides its functions. The right brain is devoted to sensory impressions, emotions, colors, music. The left brain deals with abstract thought, logic, philosophy, analysis.
My definition of a great movie: While you're watching it, it engages your right brain. When it's over, it engages your left brain. ~ Roger Ebert
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Ebert
One of the most sublime and hazardous moments in human experience comes when two people lock eyes and realize that they are sexually attracted to one another. They may not act on the knowledge.
They may file it away for future reference. They may deny it. They may never see each other again. But the moment has happened, and for an instant all other considerations are insignificant. ~ Roger Ebert
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Ebert
In the environment in which we evolved, the careful choice of a mate was critical to a female's success in passing on her genes. If her man was not strong enough to be a successful hunter, or not of sufficiently high rank within the tribe to commandeer food from others, her children might be in trouble. The women who were reproductively successful were those with a sexual preference for effective providers. A kind of erotic "tunnel vision" was selected for, which causes women to focus their mating effort on the men at the top of the pack - the "alpha males" with good physical endowments, social rank, and economic resources (or an ability to acquire them). ~ F. Roger Devlin
Roger Ames quotes by F. Roger Devlin
The networks found themselves having to compete for an increasingly Balkanized audience. ~ Roger Mudd
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Mudd
What you want to know is ... does it shorten your life? You can do
those kinds of questions in mice, but those are expensive to do and no
one's been really doing them. ~ Bruce Ames
Roger Ames quotes by Bruce Ames
Whereas with poetry no one has to show anybody really, and you don't have to tell anyone you're doing it. ~ Roger McGough
Roger Ames quotes by Roger McGough
The serve, I was too young and too small and ... not enough powerful to have a good serve when I was young, so my forehand was always my signature shot. So I used to always run around my backhand, you know, use my forehand as much as I could, and so that's why I think it's my strength also today, you know. ~ Roger Federer
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Federer
I love tennis! I've always felt like this because it is such a classy sport with a great, competitive flair to it. ~ Roger Federer
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Federer
My professional apprenticeship at Iowa State College from 1930 to 1943 could not have been better; the Great Depression made it so, and the talented younger economists at Ames during that period made it an exciting and profitable intellectual experience. ~ Theodore Schultz
Roger Ames quotes by Theodore Schultz
God requireth not a uniformity of religion. ~ Roger Williams
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Williams
Live and let live is the rule of common justice. ~ Roger L'Estrange
Roger Ames quotes by Roger L'Estrange
In Egypt: Under no conditions, under threat of death could anyone kill a cat. People were exceuted for even killing a cat accidentally. And when a cat died, the whole family, and probably their closest friends, went into mourning, the measure of their personal loss signalled by their shaving off their eyebrows. ~ Roger A. Caras
Roger Ames quotes by Roger A. Caras
When Ginger Rogers danced with Astaire, it was the only time in the movies when you looked at the man, not the woman. ~ Gene Kelly
Roger Ames quotes by Gene Kelly
An irenic approach to expounding Christian beliefs is one that attempts always to understand opposing viewpoints before disagreeing, and when it is necessary to disagree does so respectfully and in love. An irenic approach to doctrine seeks common ground and values unity within diversity and diversity within unity. An irenic approach does not imply relativism or disregard for truth, but it does seek to live by the motto "in essentials unity, ~ Roger E. Olson
Roger Ames quotes by Roger E. Olson
Fear can be conquered. I became a better person and a better football player when I learned that lesson. ~ Roger Craig
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Craig
Worse, Roger erupted into outbursts of uncontrollable rage, without apparent cause. In time I learned that this was one symptom of what therapists formerly described as a manic-depressive personality. Now they call the condition bipolar disorder. Roger sometimes telephoned and began the conversation, "You better listen to me, Dad, or you are one dead man." Then, half an hour later, "Dad, can we go to the Yankee game tonight?" Bipolar disorder is terrifying, perhaps most of all for the person suffering from it. ~ Roger Kahn
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Kahn
I did all the right things in so many tournaments. But like I said, sometimes in sports it just goes the other way. Maybe you've already won so much that it evens it out a bit sometimes. I don't know. ~ Roger Federer
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Federer
Grief and anger shrink my world, and I resent this. They seem to paralyze my memory of happier times, of friends, places, things; options. Squeezed by the grip of intense, unsettling emotion, I grow smaller in my single-mindedness. I suppose it is partly because I have discarded a range of choices, impairing in some measure my freedom of will. I don't like this, but after a point I have small control over it. It makes me feel that I have surrendered to a kind of determinism, which irritates me even more. Then, vicious cycle, this feeds back into the emotion that drives me and intensifies it. The simple way of ending this situation is the headlong rush to remove its object. The difficult way is more philosophical, a drawing back, the reestablishment of control. As usual, the difficult way is preferable. A headlong rush may also result in a broken neck. ~ Roger Zelazny
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Zelazny
The picture of a universe of infinitely many wholly unrelated substances is at least as hard to understand as the monism of Spinoza, and far less easy to reconcile with appearances. ~ Roger Scruton
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Scruton
Right now I'm just trying to survive, I know I'm gonna get there, dead or alive. ~ Roger Hodgson
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Hodgson
Imagine if you could go watch Mozart today, even if it's the last, crappiest show he ever played. What a thrill that would be. ~ Roger Daltrey
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Daltrey
Robert Conquest once announced three laws of politics, the first of which says that everyone is right-wing in the matters he knows about. ~ Roger Scruton
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Scruton
If the politicization of art and education represents one large part of the counterculture's legacy, the coarsening of feeling and sensibility is another. No phenomenon has done more to advance this coarsening than rock music. It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of rock music to the agenda of the cultural revolution. It is also impossible to overstate its soul-deadening destructiveness. The most reviled part of Allan Bloom's book The Closing of the American Mind was his chapter criticizing the effects of rock. But Bloom was right in insisting that rock music is a potent weapon in the arsenal of emotional anarchy. The triumph of rock was not only an aesthetic disaster of giant proportions: it was also a moral disaster whose effects are nearly impossible to calculate precisely because they are so pervasive. ~ Roger Kimball
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Kimball
No liquid investment alternatives with stable guaranteed principal values exist that can provide real returns by consistently beating the combined impact of inflation and income taxes. ~ Roger C. Gibson
Roger Ames quotes by Roger C. Gibson
Among gardeners, enthusiasm and experience rarely exist in equal measures. The beginner dreams of home-grown bouquets and baskets of ripe fruit, the veteran of many seasons has learned to expect slugs, mildew, and frost. ~ Roger Swain
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Swain
The mile has all the elements of a drama. ~ Roger Bannister
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Bannister
The idea that America, whose oil production has been declining for the past 40 years, is now on track to become the world's biggest producer by 2015 is still hard to grasp. ~ Roger Altman
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Altman
It is the brain, not the heart or lungs, that is the critical organ. ~ Roger Bannister
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Bannister
I have a very strong opinion. I'm absolutely against it. I'm against the challenge system. I'm for the way it is right now. Don't change that. ~ Roger Federer
Roger Ames quotes by Roger Federer
