I will not say that women have no character rather they have a new one every day.

I continue to believe contrary to the given wisdom that it's more interesting to have an album - or indeed an individual song - which has variety rather than homogeneity.

Nobility of spirit has more to do with simplicity than ostentation wisdom rather than wealth commitment rather than ambition.

Our experience is composed rather of illusions that of wisdom acquired.

It may almost be a question whether such wisdom as many of us have in our mature years has not come from the dying out of the power of temptation rather than as the results of thought and resolution.

Every speaker has a mouth An arrangement rather neat. Sometimes it's filled with wisdom. Sometimes it's filled with feet.

I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

Rather than turning away from the staggering scale and depth of misery caused by war we must strive to develop our capacity to empathize and feel the sufferings of others.

I said in my heart that rather than have war I would give up my country.

The Vietnam War required us to emphasize the national interest rather than abstract principles. What President Nixon and I tried to do was unnatural. And that is why we didn't make it.

I will not play tug o' war. I'd rather play hug o' war. Where everyone hugs instead of tugs Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug Where everyone kisses and everyone grins and everyone cuddles and everyone wins.

A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.

Truth indeed rather alleviates than hurts and will always bear up against falsehood as oil does above water.

Justice is rather the activity of truth than a virtue in itself. Truth tells us what is due to others and justice renders that due. Injustice is acting a lie.

Say not 'I have found the truth ' but rather 'I have found a truth.'

Seeing that our thirst was increasing and the water was killing us while the storm did not abate we agreed to trust to God Our Lord and rather risk the perils of the sea than wait there for certain death from thirst.

At this stage of my life I would rather try and have some small impact within a company and suffer through those things than make such a big stink that nobody can trust to work with you. It's very important in an environment of a big institution that people don't feel threatened that you're going to expose them in any way.
