You cannot have companies where many of the largest ones lose money indefinitely without someone finally waving the white flag, and IBM is the most recent example of that.
I condemn what happened in Madrid, but it is suspicious. If tomorrow there will be another bombing, in France for example, who will gain power? Of course not Jacques Chirac, but Le Pen.
Science is beautiful when it makes simple explanations of phenomena or connections between different observations. Examples include the double helix in biology and the fundamental equations of physics.
I was captain and should have set the example. I would lift a minimum of weights. Mine was natural physical strength. I always thought quickness and agility were much more important.
I believe you have a responsibility to comport yourself in a manner that gives an example to others. As a young man, I prayed for success. Now I pray just to be worthy of it.

No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.
Circumstantial evidence is occasionally very convincing, as when you find a trout in the milk, to quote Thoreau's example.
Some people are severely lonely, all they can do is accept the single life as an example of being free and happy.
The fact is that it is reasonable for us to say that there is going to be an emergency that happens in this country that we cannot budget for. Katrina is an example.
A man may be a tough, concentrated, successful money-maker and never contribute to his country anything more than a horrible example.
My idol is Bea Arthur. I really tried to follow her example. She is one of my comedy 'she-roes.'
Maybe if I could ever be a successful comedian then I could be an example that Christians can also have fun.
When I am occupied with a work that requires continuity - a novel, for example - I write every day.
You really just have to come in and build the spirit up of your team by working them everyday, showing them examples of what they've done and reinforce their work.

We can, for example, be fairly confident that either there will be a world without war or there won't be a world - at least, a world inhabited by creatures other than bacteria and beetles, with some scattering of others.
There is nothing perfect...only time.
Nobody wants to watch perfection.
