Pete Seeger I wanted to make an Indian character who wasn't either a) the savage that must be eliminated, the force of nature that's blocking the way for industrial progress, or b) the noble innocent that knows all and is another cliche. I wanted him to be a complicated human being. Jim Jarmusch Publicity, publicity, publicity is the greatest moral factor and force in our public life. Joseph Pulitzer On December 5, 1941, Chicago led a task force built around the carrier Lexington to Midway Island, at the western end of the Hawaiian Islands, about 1,000 miles from Pearl Harbor. Jack Adams Our task force put to sea in early January 1942, to attack the Japanese in the Marshall and Gilbert islands, but the mission was called off on the eve of the attack. Jack Adams No government is here forever. And there are other forces - the most potent force in our society, in fact, big business - doing good for the environment. Jared Diamond I love boxing. There's something fierce about using your body's force that way. Sophia Bush The Cape Town is considerably increased within the last eight years.

William Bligh The attempt to force human beings to despise themselves is what I call hell. Andre Malraux History shows that where ethics and economics come in conflict, victory is always with economics.

Ambedkar To attempt to superimpose its views through the exercise of force, is seldom the part of intelligence; it is frequently the part of ignorance. Paul Harris I always think about what I missed, and I think that was my driving force - never be satisfied with what I've done. Thierry Henry Because just as arms have no force outside if there is no counsel within a house, study is vain and counsel useless that is not put to virtuous effect when the time calls. Francois Rabelais I never force myself to be devout except when I feel so inspired, and never compose hymns of prayers unless I feel within me real and true devotion. Franz Schubert Desire is poverty. Desire is the greatest impurity of the mind. Desire is the motive force for action. Desire in the mind is the real impurity. Even a spark of desire is a very great evil. Swami Sivananda I think that it's a vital moment now for Russian democracy to convince people that it's only our actions, our joined actions and protests that could force Kremlin to reconsider its plans to abolish presidential elections. Garry Kasparov I belong to a nation which over the past centuries has experienced many hardships and reverses. The world reacted with silence or with mere sympathy when Polish frontiers were crossed by invading armies and the sovereign state had to succumb to brutal force. Lech Walesa My most ardent desire is that my country will recapture its historic opportunity for a peaceful evolution and that Poland will prove to the world that even the most complex situations can be solved by a dialogue and not by force. Lech Walesa There's a tradition in British intellectual life of mocking any non-political force that gets involved in politics, especially within the sphere of the arts and the theatre. Harold Pinter Force is not a remedy. John Bright |
