Many great actions are committed in small struggles.
Attachment parenting demands not just certain actions you take with your baby but also certain emotional states to accompany those actions.
My style is where you see the individual and where a personality is communicated through actions, decisions, single objects and facts, where the whole draws together to form a history.
I have long since come to believe that people never mean half of what they say, and that it is best to disregard their talk and judge only their actions.
The secret of big and revolutionary actions also consists in discovering the tiny step that is simultaneously a strategic step, insofar as it entails additional steps in the direction of a better reality.
What do we mean by 'crazy?' What do we mean by 'mad?' At what point is a person just different and at what point can we call it a disease and say that they are not responsible for their actions? Or are we all slaves to the chemical processes that go on in our brains?
The entrance into Jerusalem has all the elements of the theatre of the absurd: the poor king; truth comes riding on a donkey; symbolic actions - even parading without a permit!
Slowly, ideas lead to ideology, lead to policies that lead to actions.
The administration is out lying through its teeth about all these people signing up and how great Obamacare is now. Meanwhile, Obama continues to break the law each and every day with executive actions - not even executive orders, executive actions - and proclamations.
Government should eschew suasion and directives to banks on interest rates that run counter to monetary policy actions.
The actions of the University in my case make it abundantly clear that the Administration's rhetoric about Harvard's desire to attract and retain the most distinguished women in the world is empty.
We'll continue to take the right actions to make sure we're a profitable business.
In all unmerciful actions, the worst of men pay this compliment at least to humanity, as to endeavour to wear as much of the appearance of it, as the case will well let them.
We need the cooperation of the Pakistanis. If we don't have any, we lose insight into the actions of those who would do our country harm.
What I have always loved about modelling is the chance to play a part. I am quite shy naturally, but I like getting into somebody else's head space, understanding how people work and the psychology behind their actions.
Each department and institution has its own authorities and responsibilities, and they act on that basis. It is wrong to even compare such actions to what is done in Guantanamo or elsewhere by the Americans. They do not stand on a high moral platform to preach to others.
I am not in favour of the takeover of excellent and strategically important British companies by struggling foreign firms whose actions are fuelled by tax avoidance, and who want to asset-strip the intellectual property of the British company and then dismember it.
The terrorist attacks of September 11th and the courageous actions of our armed forces in Afghanistan and Iraq remind us that friends of tyranny and enemies of freedom still exist.
The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.
We are responsible for actions performed in response to circumstances for which we are not responsible.
Though public pronouncements of Israeli officials emphasize peace and mutuality, unilateralism actually drives Israeli actions.
I think protest and actions have to be organised against the Israelis and their backers. There needs to be a concerted high profile campaign to raise awareness of the people in this country.
You don't get results by focusing on results. You get results by focusing on the actions that produce results.
The individual is not accountable to society for his actions in so far as these concern the interests of no person but himself.
I think people tend to be very myopic and they don't understand how their actions impact others.
Most of the media... is positioning the merger with Compaq and the recent actions by Walter Hewlett and David Packard as a fight between the past and the future.
Nothing happens in a vacuum in life: every action has a series of consequences, and sometimes it takes a long time to fully understand the consequences of our actions.
Every dollar that we send in State Department aid or humanitarian aid that saves us from having to get involved with very expensive military actions is a good investment. And frankly, helping Israel fight terrorism in the Middle East is much cheaper than us fighting it here on our shores.
When I'm alone, I silently talk to God. Also, at the end of the day, I have conversations with Jesus, where I just talk about my day, my actions and give thanks for the blessings I have received. I do this, as I believe I have a friend in Him.
It's fun to play a character who lives on the edge, who is an ethical and moral mess, and is paying the price for some of his actions.
Genes are not simple triggers. No one is hardwired to commit murder or any other crime. Our actions are always the result of stupendously complex gene-environment interactions, and environment is likely to remain the more important influence by far.
There are many ways of showing your protest and discontent without the actions of Kremlin.
All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsions, habit, reason, passion, desire.
Refusing to lift sanctions and adopting tougher rhetoric toward Iran would not be partisan issues. Plenty of Democrats think that those actions are both good politics and good policy.
What I've learned is sometimes it's good not to have all the same actions and have all the same takes. The variety you provide gives the director later on in post-production the ability to construct a more interesting performance as he puts the movie together.
Bin Laden is remarkably eager for Americans to know why he doesn't like us, what he intends to do about it and then following up and doing something about it in terms of military actions.
