Robert H. Schuller The healthiest competition occurs when average people win by putting above average effort. Colin Powell The higher the general average of intelligence, all things else being equal, the less the disposition to be meddlesome, critical, and overbearing. Paul Harris The presentations and conceptions of the average man of the world are formed and dominated, not by the full and pure desire for knowledge as an end in itself, but by the struggle to adapt himself favourably to the conditions of life. Ernst Mach The President also talked at length about how well the American economy is doing. Apparently, he got his information on this topic from his millionaire supporters. For the average working family, these are trying economic times. Jose Serrano The problem is that for women, the average time is just over 14 minutes... men are left with about 12 minutes during which time they need to think of something to do! Phil McGraw The professionals are going to be joined by the average Joe. Everybody's a publisher. Eric Brown The Queen is usually reckoned equal, in average situations, to two Rooks and a Pawn, but towards the end of a game she is hardly so valuable as two Rooks. Howard Staunton The real truth is that the Obama administration is professional at bullying, as we have witnessed with ACORN at work during the presidential campaign. It seems to me they are sending down their bullies to create fist fights among average American citizens who don't want a government-run health care plan forced upon them. Jon Voight The sanity of the average banquet speaker lasts about two and a half months; at the end of that time he begins to mutter to himself, and calls out in his sleep. James Thurber The shelf life of the average trade book is somewhere between milk and yogurt. Calvin Trillin The strongest results were in Florida and Texas. In just one year in a Texas charter school, an average student gained 7 percentile points in math and 8 percentile points in reading, while Florida charter schools improved student performance by 6 percentile points. Maggie Gallagher The susceptibility of the average modern to pictorial suggestion enables advertising to exploit his lessened power of judgment. Johan Huizinga The U.S. Census Bureau acknowledged this fact when it reported that those with a bachelor's degree earn on average $1 million more over their lifetime than those with only a high school diploma. Elijah Cummings The United Nations' greatest fear is that average Americans will no longer tolerate these international scandals and demand that America withdraw from the international organization. Ginny B. Waite The upward course of a nation's history is due in the long run to the soundness of heart of its average men and women. Elizabeth II The whole point is, give me a break with the standards. You go to the average jazz label and suggest a record and they want to know which standards you're going to play. I'm saying let's break the formula. Branford Marsalis The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity and the brute by instinct. Marcus Tullius Cicero Then came a big strike. About 100 girls went out. The result was a victory, which netted us - I mean the girls - $2 increase in our wages on the average. Rose Schneiderman There are people who tell you to shut up because you're just a celebrity, but pundits, talking heads, they're every bit the celebrity and a lot of them aren't any more qualified than the average man on the street.
