Erik Paulsen Zitate

Since I joined Congress, I've been shocked at how many times we were forced to vote on 1,000-plus-page bills without ample time to read or review what was in the final legislation. It's no wonder Congress doesn't enact good policy.

Erik Paulsen

Deutsche Übersetzung

Seit ich dem Kongress beigetreten bin, war ich schockiert, wie oft wir gezwungen waren, über 1.000 Seiten umfassende Rechnungen abzustimmen, ohne ausreichend Zeit zu haben, um zu lesen oder zu überprüfen, was in der endgültigen Gesetzgebung stand. Es ist kein Wunder, dass der Kongress keine gute Politik verfolgt.

Englisches Zitat von Tilman J. Fertitta als Bild

I always ask candidates two things: 'How many times have you been fired?' and, 'Do you watch your clock when it's time to go? Do you look at your phone? Do you look at your watch?'

How many times have you been on the freeway and had someone fly by you at 100 mph then end up two cars ahead of you at the off ramp? What's the point?

John D. Rockefeller said that he found friendships based on business to be far more long lasting and profitable than the reverse. I think there's something to that. A company can end up being very Confucian, where the good of the individual is subjugated to the good of the whole.

I'm so glad I'm not a dentist. How many times does someone say, 'Oh, Doc, it felt so good when you were drilling my teeth'? Never. But when you give someone a wonderful cookie, you put a little of yourself in, and you see someone's face light up - that's immediate approval.

It's queer how ready people always are with advice in any real or imaginary emergency, and no matter how many times experience has shown them to be wrong, they continue to set forth their opinions, as if they had received them from the Almighty!

I can't tell you how many times I've had conversations with politicians who've done something morally reprehensible but not indictable, yet still think they should be able to stay in office. The office isn't a 'right.' It's a kind of loan.

Englisches Zitat von Grandmaster Flash als Bild

All you have to know is mathematically how many times to scratch it and when to let it go - when certain things will enhance the record you're listening to.

Englisches Zitat von Lillian Hellman als Bild

Unjust. How many times I've used that word, scolded myself with it. All I mean by it now is that I don't have the final courage to say that I refuse to preside over violations against myself, and to hell with justice.

Lillian Hellman

Englisches Zitat von Elayne Boosler als Bild

I personally cannot tell you how many times we rescuers put our names on animals to come to us as soon as they are eligible for release, only to find they have been senselessly killed by overzealous pound workers.
