 "As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." — H. L. Mencken
  Henry Louis Mencken

 'Where there is a will there is a way'.' is an old true saying. He who resolves upon doing a thing, by that very resolution often scales the barriers to it, and secures its achievement. To think we are able, is almost to be so / to determine upon attainment is frequently attainment itself.
  Samuel Smiles

 (Playing the Dodgers) is kind of special. It was five years that I spent there. In my opinion they were five very special years. There were a lot of very special things we accomplished there. There were things that some people thought we were never going to have a chance to do, but we did.

 (The rumors are) so absurd. I think Kenyon knows we'll be honest with him. We answer phone calls when people talk to us about people. We're not going to not talk about that. It's our job to try to pursue and get better . . . We have some good foundation pieces. We just need to get healthy.

 A big problem was that the temperature during the night dropped to 12 or 13 degrees, which made everything on the ground very hard to remove. We made it as good as possible. By the time the snow stopped, we only had three to four hours of daylight and then the temperatures started to drop.

 A brahmachari is he, who tries to attain enlightenment while he is alive and aspires for 'salvation' after his death. He incessantly makes efforts to improve upon his intellect and knowledge and to treads on the path of truth. Quite naturally gods are pleased by him and dwell in his heart.

 A common understanding has been reached. Despite these encouraging steps, it is important to note that the commission will ultimately judge the cooperation of the Syrian authorities on the merits of the information provided and the promptness with which its requests are being accommodated.

 A cut...won't affect the 30-year fixed mortgage rate at all. According to Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed rate was 6.8 percent last week, and we think it'll stay about the same. But another interest rate cut could mean a slight drop in the short-term one-year adjustable rate mortgage (ARM).

 A knowledge economy doesn't mean producing doctorates, although there is a perception that higher-level skills drive the economy. It's too simplistic to say that one follows the other. There is no belief at the OECD that the production of advanced degrees is a formula for economic success.

 A lot of artists say they'd be happy in a classless society. But artists are often the first to deceive themselves. Put them in the kind of utopia they sentimentalize, and in no time, they would be binding their feet, lengthening their necks or flattening their heads, just to be different.

 A lot of crazy things happen here. I am thinking after the first period that we played great and now we got a delay with the zamboni. I was like, 'You got to be kidding me. What else can go wrong when we come up here?' I said, 'We might not even be able to finish this game.' I was a wreck.

 A lot of people are asking why doesn't Selig just invoke the 'best interests' clause and deal with this. I try to explain to them that the 'best interest' clause is irrelevant in labor because of all the players protected (federal law). ... He has almost no discretion. He's pretty limited.

 A lot of people asked me what my best basketball memory has been. This has definitely been it. To know where the program was at and to have the opportunity to lead it here meant the world to me. Hopefully we made an impact on the young kids on this team, on the campus and on the community.

 A source of support to the screen appears to be indications of increased refinery maintenance that should prove capable of reversing a dramatic 23-mil bbl up-trend in gasoline stocks during the past seven weeks. Production declines should also be driven by some slippage in gasoline yields.

 A stronger, more flexible body will tolerate a fall better. The underlying message is that snowboarding and skiing safety have to entail a lifestyle commitment. Maintaining a proper fitness level is essential and winter athletes need to incorporate it naturally into their fitness routines.
