Since I've started fighting it has taught me a lot about self respect self confidence and self control.

It goes without saying that the desire to accomplish the task with more confidence to avoid wasting time and labour and to spare our experimental animals as much as possible made us strictly observe all the precautions taken by surgeons in respect to their patients.

I have no confidence issues with the impact or the quality of the music. No one in hip-hop before this point and to this point with all due respect has done this.

Find your self-respect now. Don't dumb yourselves down. Think of yourself as capable and worthy of finding a guy who is going to respect you too. It's so important I mean and the confidence you get from feeling smart and tackling something like mathematics which is a challenge right? Math is hard.

If once you forfeit the confidence of your fellow-citizens you can never regain their respect and esteem.

When writing comedy you have to have the confidence to believe that there is only one type of relationship in the world and we are all having it that all men behave in the same way and so do all women.

The most important thing for me is having a relationship with God. To know that the owner the creator of the universe loves you sent His Son to die for your sins that's very empowering. Knowing Him and knowing that He loves me gives me encouragement and confidence to move forward.

I think that the power is the principle. The principle of moving forward as though you have the confidence to move forward eventually gives you confidence when you look back and see what you've done.

Power without a nation's confidence is nothing.

However I must say that I am very happy to see that we have such a positive result for our first referendum in our history and that gives me more confidence in Taiwan's democracy.

I think what is happening is I think first of all there is confidence in the U.K. economy. We're in a German rather than a Greek position in international financial markets which is very positive and keeps our debt service costs down and we're also beginning to see real evidence of rebalancing.

My advice is very simple: if you can win a small battle it gives you confidence in the political process to take on bigger battles and so it is very much a bottom-up grass-roots way of doing politics.

I have written some songs but I would really call what I've done poetry at the end of the day because I'll sit with my guitar for hours and hours on end for like a week and then I won't touch it for a month. I also just have no confidence. And you know what? I don't have time because I'd rather be doing other things like knitting.

From 1836 down to last year there is no proof of the Government having any confidence in the duration of peace or possessing increased security against war.

There has not been a war in South America for fifty years and I have every confidence that the countries of Central and South America are deeply in earnest in the maintenance of peace.

Oh how great peace and quietness would he possess who should cut off all vain anxiety and place all his confidence in God.

In a war everybody always knows all about Switzerland in peace times it is just Switzerland but in war time it is the only country that everybody has confidence in everybody.
