| David Ben-Gurion |
In Israel, in order to be a realist you must believe in miracles. |
| David Ben-Gurion |
Anyone who doesn't believe in miracles is not a realist. |
| H. C. Bailey |
In order to be a realist you must believe in miracles. |
| Joan Baez |
People say I'm such a pessimist, but I always was. It never stopped me from doing what I had to do. I would say I'm a realist. |
| William Arthur Ward |
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails. |
| A. A. Milne |
The third-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the majority. The second-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the minority. The first-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking. |
| Douglas Fairbanks |
We all have ambitions, but only the few achieve. A man thinks of a good thing and says: 'Now if I only had the money I'd put that through.' The word 'if' was a dent in his courage. With character fully established, his plan well thought out, he had only to go to those in command of capital and it would have been forthcoming. |
| Gary Hamel |
Most of us understand that innovation is enormously important. It's the only insurance against irrelevance. It's the only guarantee of long-term customer loyalty. It's the only strategy for out-performing a dismal economy. |
| Peter Ackroyd |
Why should a novelist not also be a historian? To force unnatural divisions within the English language is to work against its capacious and accommodating nature. To expect a writer to produce only novels, or only histories, is equivalent to demanding from a composer that he or she write only string quartets or piano sonatas. |
| Warren Farrell |
Women are the only 'oppressed' group that is able to buy most of the $10 billion worth of cosmetics each year; the only oppressed group that spends more on high fashion, brand-name clothing than its oppressors; the only oppressed group that watches more TV. |
