I have never solicited nor received money from Iraq for our campaign against war and sanctions. I have never seen a barrel of oil, never owned one, never bought one, never sold one.
I've been playing against older and stronger competition my whole life. It has made me a better tennis player and able to play against this kind of level despite their strength and experience.
Teens like a lot of the same things adults do: smart people doing amazing things against awful odds.
Every man should follow the bent of his nature in art and letters, always provided that he does not offend against the rules of morality and good taste.
I have always been a strong supporter of public lands and have voted against the transfer or sale of public lands. My position is known and well-established.
But I'm very thankful that no one is slamming my head against the wall anymore.
Anyone who watched George W. and Karl Rove while the former was governor of Texas will recognize a familiar pattern. Like much of Bush's social policy - from faith-based social services to railing against gay marriage - women's issues are one of the bones they've decided they can throw to the Christian right.
I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it.
In 2003, this House voted to kill a Democratic amendment to add $250 million for port security grants; then again, in 2005, against a Democratic proposal calling for an additional $400 million in funding for port security.
To array a man's will against his sickness is the supreme art of medicine.
Everyone has been discriminated against or harassed - sexism is real.
He who uses the office he owes to the voters wrongfully and against them is a thief.
Music can be used against us as much as it can be used for us. Muzak can put a whole nation to sleep, whereas a lullaby is intended to put a child to sleep in a sweet way.
Always try to rub up against money, for if you rub up against money long enough, some of it may rub off on you.
Dr. Rice's record on Iraq gives me great concern. In her public statements she clearly overstated and exaggerated the intelligence concerning Iraq before the war in order to support the President's decision to initiate military action against Iraq.
The design of those commissioners, frigates and warlike force is directed rather against Long Island and these your Honors' possessions, than to the imagined reform of New England.
Or like in the early 70's when we had the reaction against acid rock and all the fuzz tone, and feedback, and the noise. And you had James Taylor and everyone went acoustic and that.
If Russia wants to use energy as a weapon against our friends and allies, let's use our resources to set them free.
The rap against Tesla has always been of the 'yes, but' variety. Yes, it's a fine artisanal designer and manufacturer of electric cars, and its CEO is one of the few business leaders alive for whom the label 'visionary' isn't hyperbolic.
Whenever someone says to me, 'Are you for or against Common Core,' the first question I ask is, 'What do you think Common Core is?' You will get a different answer from every single person. You will literally get a different answer.
A more effective international disease surveillance system is essential for global security both against a bioterrorist attack or a naturally occurring disease.
All I held against Jews was that so many Jews actually were hypocrites in their claim to be friends of the American black man.
The euro currency both presupposes and promotes a fiction - that 'Europe' has somehow become, against the wishes of most Europeans, a political rather than a merely geographic expression.
I would rather die than do something which I know to be a sin, or to be against God's will.
I'm a normal person. You say something about me, I'm going to say something back, funny or not. I'm just going to be me. It's nothing against them. I'm just doing what you do to me.
I'm against people downloading music.
The hatred Muslim extremists feel against the West feeds on certain conflicts in the world.
With 'Hunger Games,' it's about people rising up to fight against a corrupt government that controls them.
On September 11, 2001, we thought we were going to be attacked many, many times between then and now. We haven't been. I believe we had a president who made the right decision at the right time... to put us on offense against terrorists.
Nor shall derision prove powerful against those who listen to humanity or those who follow in the footsteps of divinity, for they shall live forever. Forever.
I had many decades of me time and now I just don't have that anymore. There are days when I rail against it.
The thing I ran up against was everybody wanted a song so fast. It took me two years to finish 'Touch Me in the Morning.'
There's always a reaction based on fear. People assume if you're criticizing a decision to go to war, then you're saying something against the soldiers-which is not the case.
From a financial perspective, you have to think about what the film will generate in revenue so you can set a budget against it.
I hope that no American will waste his franchise and throw away his vote by voting either for me or against me solely on account of my religious affiliation. It is not relevant.
Why would Senator Allen want to oppose saving money for the state? It's simply another example of Republicans fighting the governor tooth and nail against any measure where she might be able to turn the state's budget around.
