No other country in the world gives protection like that, but it is not absolute protection. People sometimes meet that high burden and win libel suits, and in those cases I think they ought to win. - Floyd Abrams I got along better with the guys than with the girls. Only two girls came up to talk to me. Later I found out they were telling their boyfriends, 'If you talk to her, I'll kill you.' It's always rough with that high school thing. - Christina Aguilera 'Till America has learned to love literature not as an amusement, not as a mere doggerel to memorize in a college room, but for its humanizing and ennobling energy, my dear reverend president, she will not have succeeded in that high sense which alone makes a nation out of a people. That which raises it from a dead name to a living power.' - Matthew Pearl In that high place in the darkness the two oddly sensitive human atoms held each other tightly and waited. In the mind of each was the same thought. ...

Here we find further argument for Gotagga's supposition that the world is round. How else could all men stand higher than their brothers? - R Scott Bakker There is a loftier ambition than merely to stand high in the world. It is to stoop down and lift mankind a little higher. - Henry Van Dyke Stand high long enough and your lightning will come. - William Gibson

I do love shoes that make my legs longer. I have the upper body of someone who's 5ft 8in, so high heels help me even out the discrepancy. - Amy Adams DETCHANT (n.) That part of a hymn (usually a few notes at the end of a verse) where the tune goes so high or low that you suddenly have to change octaves to accommodate it. - Douglas Adams We are crayons and lunchboxes and swinging so high our sneakers punch holes in the clouds. - Laurie Halse Anderson For one moment we are not failed tests and broken condoms and cheating on essays; we are crayons and lunch boxes and swinging so high our sneakers punch holes in the clouds. - Laurie Halse Anderson Why is Slavery so much condemn'd and strove against in one Case, and so highly applauded and held so necessary and so sacred in another? - Mary Astell How happy is the lot of the mathematician! He is judged solely by his peers, and the standard is so high that no colleague or rival can ever win a reputation he does not deserve. No c...

I've always wanted to do a movie that takes place in the 70's and was about rock and roll and getting high, like Dazed and Confused or Fast Times at Ridgemont High. - Edward Furlong My first film as an actor was 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High,' a glorious experience that spoiled me for future films. - Eric Stoltz

Everybody is seeking to reach higher self but hardly anyone reaches. - Santosh Kalwar The lamp sizzled as it burned. It made everything seem close and safe, a little family circle they all knew and trusted. Outside this circle lay everything that was strange and frightening, and the darkness seemed to reach higher and higher and further and further away, right to the end of the world. - Tove Jansson Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal. - Mother Teresa The hand cannot reach higher than does the heart. - Orison Swett Marden Reach high, for stars lie hidden in you. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal. - Rabindranath Tagore

Rule Forty-two. All persons more than a mile high to leave the court. - Lewis Carroll Books to the ceiling, Books to the sky, My pile of books is a mile high. How I love them! How I need them! I'll have a long beard by the time I read them. - Arnold Lobel Jimmy: One day, when I'm no longer spending my days running a sweet-stall, I may write a book about us all. It's all here. (slapping his forehead) Written in flames a mile high. And it won't be recollected in tranquillity either, picking daffodils with Auntie Wordsworth. It'll be recollected in fire, and blood. My blood. - John Osborne

Always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, Sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about. - Marilyn Monroe so keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about. - Marilyn Monroe just because you fail once, it doesn't mean you're going to fail at everything. keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself because if you don't, then who will? so keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about. - Marilyn Monroe

But that doesn't stop me from moving about him like a junior high girl lingering by the lifeguard station - Marc Acito Great, I'll continue this junior high bullshit and tell her that Ty. You got anything else I should whisper to her at recess? Take asked, pissed as all hell. - Kristen Ashley In junior high, I sang in madrigals, men's' and women's' choir. I played piano too, but then I got out of it. - Travis Barker When all the girls were getting all made up and getting into all that girl stuff in junior high I was out playing softball or touch football with the guys. - Catherine Bell One thing I have always been is too short. It's adorable when you're in junior high. After that, it's a pain in the ass for the rest of your life. - Elizabeth Berg When I was in junior high school, the teachers voted me the student most likely to end up in the electric chair. - Sylvester Stallone I attended a very small junior high and specially in the end that ...

The power of one is above all things the power to believe in yourself, ofen well beyond any latent ability you may have previously demonstrated. The mind is the athlete, the body is simply the means it uses to run faster or longer, jump higher, shoot straighter, kick better, swim harder, hit further, or box better. - Bryce Courtenay The great thing about this is, and not to pump my own tires, but I feel like I'm not maximized yet. I feel like I can still run faster, jump higher, which I think makes it special. Hopefully, going to London, I'll be welcomed into the decathlon community. - Ashton Eaton Run faster, jump higher, reach farther, and you'll always win! live life expecting the worst, hoping for the best, and living for the future! Somebody has to do something, and it's just incredibly pathetic that it has to be us. - Jerry Garcia There is no getting around the fact that the moment you are at your very best is the moment you begin to become worse and worse. Ot...

We now need to look beyond our immediate future and aim higher and farther. - Paul Biya Guys usually know immediately that I'm high-maintenance. - Yasmine Bleeth Aim high. you may still miss the target but at least you won't shoot your foot off. - Lois Mcmaster Bujold Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will not die. - Daniel Burnham I think I'm highly loveable. - Alastair Campbell Aim higher in case you fall short. - Suzanne Collins Most people either love or hate old libraries. To some, a room like this--dim, high-ceilinged, dusty, smelling of old paper and crumbling leather--would be oppressive, a place to flee from in search of sun and air. To others, like me, it was a wonderful cave filled with unimaginable treasures and unexpected treats. I always found myself inhaling deeply when I entered the stacks, as if trying to absorb part of them into my bloodstream. - Sheila Connolly Aim high, and you won...

If he says jump, she doesn't even ask "How high?" She goes out and buys a pogo stick. - Jodi Picoult How high a price we pay for the burden of habit! I am fitted for life here where I do not want to be, I want to live there but am unfit for it, and on both counts I am miserable. - Saint Augustine Of Hippo At MIT, I had the good fortune for seven years to teach network theory, which is basic to many disciplines, to one-third of the undergraduate student body. It was an experiment to see how high we could bring their level of understanding, and it exceeded all of my expectations. - Amar Bose it's not how far you fall, but how high you bounce that counts. - Zig Ziglar In short, there are mysteries of science and of soul that will never be understood no matter how hard we measure, no matter how strongly we believe, no matter how deep our think tanks and how high our aspirations. But as anyone will tell youfor we all know this within our heartsthe impossible happens a...

They understood freewill wasn't about physically resisting. Physical resistance isn't always possible ... it is mentally, emotionally, and spiritually withstanding the pressure to forget humanity's potential for kindness over cruelty. Choosing to accept consequences while still holding your head high, vulnerable and naked ... you are stronger for the pain. - Elyse Draper I see now what they mean by "holding your head high," and I am sometimes surprised by how much interior transformation a ramrod posture can afford. When I stand physically proud, I feel a small measure less mortified. - Lionel Shriver

Hold your head high, stick your chest out. It gets dark sometimes, but morning comes. Keep hope alive. - Jesse Jackson He smiled at Billy's friends. "I got more where that came from. Never do that shit again." He found Mouse's eyes. "Jimmy, you hold your head high." That moment changed Mouse. - Debra Anastasia This is my depressed stance. When you're depressed, it makes a lot of difference how you stand. The worst thing you can do is straighten up and hold your head high because then you'll start to feel better. If you're going to get any joy out of being depressed, you've got to stand like this. - Charles M Schulz She's an old lady and she's ill. You just hold your head high and be a gentleman. Whatever she says to you, it's your job not to let her make you mad. - Atticus Finch - Harper Lee You might hear some ugly talk about it at school, but do one thing for me if you will: you just hold your head high and keep those fists...

High technology has done us one great service: It has retaught us the delight of performing simple and primordial tasks - chopping wood, building a fire, drawing water from a spring - Edward Abbey Mr. Greer timed all our speeches with an oven timer. Things were nothing at Tribeca Alternative, considered one of Manhattan's finest prep schools, if not high tech. - Meg Cabot High tech companies that focus on research, development and production will learn that they can be the perfect complement to our world-renowned agriculture heritage. - Alan Autry It was supposed to be a year or two just to refresh my batteries, but I moved to Silicon Valley in the early 90's, and one thing let to another, got very involved in high tech, and formed a company and it ended up doing pretty well. - Thomas Dolby I've been thinking about the distorted view of science that prevails in our culture. I've been wondering about this, because our civilization is completely dependent on science ...

If you had a national grid with one operator, you had twenty or even a hundred operators, if you don't have the ability to compel people to observe high standards of conduct, then you run a greater risk. - Spencer Abraham What we do is look for high standards of excellence in the arts. - Jane Alexander The choice of personnel, perhaps the most important choice (because 'people are policy'), never proceeds according to plan, but there have been some successful transitions that upheld high standards. - Richard V Allen Let us be about setting high standards for life, love, creativity, and wisdom. If our expectations in these areas are low, we are not likely to experience wellness. Setting high standards makes every day and every decade worth looking forward to. - Greg Anderson If you have self-respect, you will take satisfaction in being well groomed and will not allow yourself to perform shabbily. You will continue to work toward high standards and goals to serve others,...

There have been rich meat and bloody wine. There have been brandies, and thick puddings. There has already been some dirty talk. Selina is in high spirits, and as for me, I'm a gurgling wizard of calorific excess. - Martin Amis It is a giggle full of high spirits and merry mischief, proof that we never lose our girlish selves, no matter what sort of women we become. - Libba Bray When I am wicked I am in high spirits. - Henry James Bones was in high spirits. Why wouldn't he be? He had just hypothetically fucked me into incomprehension. - Jeaniene Frost They were the most depressing group of people Yossarian had ever been with. They were always in high spirits. - Joseph Heller No prizefighter can go with high spirits into the strife if he has never been beaten black and blue; the only contestant who can confidently enter the lists is the man who has seen his own blood, who has felt his teeth rattle beneath his opponent's fist, who has been tripped and felt the full forc...

You're mind is working at its best when you're being paranoid. You explore every avenue and possibility of your situation at high speed with total clarity. - Banksy While the egg yolks cooled, he directed the beaters at the egg whites, setting the mixer on high speed that sent small bubbles giggling to the side of the bowl, where a few became many until they were a white froth rising up and then lying down again in patters and ridges, leaving an intricate design like the ribs of a leaf in the wake of the beaters - Erica Bauermeister We are also ignoring and underfunding high speed rail which is one of the best ways to move citizens and improve congestion on our highways. - Corrine Brown (A boat in lake.) I was afraid it would turn over at high speed. Dreams less and less interesting. - William S Burroughs There was only one road back to L.A. - U.S. Interstate 15. Just a flat-out high speed burn through Baker and Barstow and Berdoo. Then onto the Hollywood Freeway, and stra...

Any files I give to the model are downsized (typically 800x1200 pixels)... By not giving out my high resolution files, they cannot be used without my knowledge. - A K Nicholas There is a new way with very very tiny fiber optics, which give an enormous high resolution. There are many many thousand fibers, very very close together with a very small diameter. - Lennart Nilsson That's the new way - with computers, computers, computers. That's the way we can have the cell survive and get some new information in high resolution. We started about five years ago and, today, I think we have reached the target. - Lennart Nilsson

I understood public relations and always maintained a high profile. - Earl Butz A lot of things which come with a high profile will always be criticised one way or another. - Evelyn Glennie I think all phases of one's career are serious if you take it seriously no matter if you are doing high profile dramatic pieces or not. - Bill Murray This sympathy is not translated into force against the British government because it is not like the anti- apartheid movement which had a high profile here and Mandela is a more engaging figure than Yasser Arafat. - Tom Paulin I think protest and actions have to be organised against the Israelis and their backers. There needs to be a concerted high profile campaign to raise awareness of the people in this country. - Tom Paulin There are actually quite high profile British TV star cameos in it that you probably wouldn't even notice, that the British wouldn't even notice, let alone the American audience. - Simon Pegg Newt Gingrich'...
