Collateral Quotations
All that happens is that the destruction of human beings - unless they're Americans - is called collateral damage.
Harold Pinter
For me, the risks in terms of opening that brewpub were fairly high. I put my house up as collateral, I invested the liquid money I had and two years of my time to get it over, but that's really not much of a risk for what the potential reward was if it worked.
John Hickenlooper
For example, Michael Mann's film Collateral - there is certain kinds of stories that lend themselves to digital photography. Some things are very raw stories that digital photography kind of lends itself to.
Matthew Modine
I want to be clear. No company is too big to be prosecuted. We have zero tolerance for corporate fraud, but we also recognize the importance of avoiding collateral consequences whenever possible.
Alberto Gonzales

Juan Williams
One must choose between Obscurity with Efficiency, and Fame with its inevitable collateral of Bluff.
