There is such a thing as legitimate warfare: war has its laws; there are things which may fairly be done, and things which may not be done.
John Henry Newman

There's a certain logic to systems, and that logic is fairly self-evident. It's very straightforward, usually. It might take a little research, it might take a little bit of industry to prize it out, but it's there to be seen.
Michael Nesmith

There's a lot of exaggerated talk about CAFTA, but it's actually a fairly routine trade agreement. Although it involves fairly small nations, they're still more important trade partners than places like Australia or many other larger nations.
Ernest Istook

They are a fairly aggressive conservation organization that was started to protect the great whales particularly, but in general all marine life around the world. So those are the people I'm trying to attach my name to.
Richard Dean Anderson

Scott Cook

This means I must pay close attention to the writing, but equally so to the scientific background - which sometimes means doing fairly involved calculations.

Mike Rogers

Using these unnamed sources, if done properly, carefully and fairly, provides more accountability in government.
Bob Woodward

Very intense first summer out, to be 18 years old and never having gone on a date, never having smoked a cigarette, never had a drink, even a sip of beer, never kissed a girl, all of those things. It made for a fairly intense first year out.
Peter Jurasik

Voters want to know that elections will be conducted fairly and accurately.
Bill Nelson

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.
Noam Chomsky

Nigel Short

We have played so well that the guys have really made my job fairly easy.
Ricky Ponting

We have today a fairly thorough knowledge of the early Greco-Roman period because our motivations are the same.
Arthur Erickson

Peter Singer
