The American lionization of the entrepreneur is to ignore its foibles - the narcissism, the workaholism, the neglect of family, the imbalance, the obsession. These are not universally good things, though they are frequently universal to building great companies.

Andy Dunn

I believe it is universally understood and acknowledged that all men will ever act correctly, unless they have a motive to do otherwise.

Abraham Lincoln

Christ commands those who believe to be baptized. Pedobaptists adopt a system which tends to preclude the baptism of believers. They baptize the involuntary infant and deprive him of the privilege of ever professing his faith in the appointed way. If this system were universally adopted, it would banish believers' baptism out of the world.

Adoniram Judson

I do not understand where the backing of Bitcoin is coming from. There is no fundamental issue of capabilities of repaying it in anything which is universally acceptable, which is either intrinsic value of the currency or the credit or trust of the individual who is issuing the money, whether it's a government or an individual.

Alan Greenspan

Fear invariably and universally induces disengagement, and disengagement is negative division of labor.

Alan Greenspan

It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.

Albert Einstein

It is a truth universally acknowledged on Wall Street that original research is on life support. Serious research can be bad for business, as well as expensive.

Alex Berenson

Cents are the most universally used interval measure.

Alexander John Ellis

People aren't universally heroic.

Alexei Sayle

Our films are changing so people across the world can see them - when 'Highway' premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, a Polish lady said to me, 'It has a strong message for women.' So it's good to know our films are connecting universally.

Alia Bhatt

Sally Field looks amazing in general, never mind her age! She's a phenomenally talented actress and has had a career spanning so many decades.

Alison Sweeney

'Daughters of Britannia' is a fascinating book, not least because it shines a light on a very dark corner of Foreign Office dealings. Diplomatic spouses are the Aunt Sallys of the foreign service: responsible for nearly everything, recognised for almost nothing.

Amanda Foreman

The great esteem in which the Nobel prizes are universally held is due to the fact that for several generations they have been given purely on scientific merit and not through lobbying and politicking. I do hope that it will stay this way, and the prizes will never be given according to the number of votes in live TV contests!

Andre Geim

While gossip among women is universally ridiculed as low and trivial, gossip among men, especially if it is about women, is called theory, or idea, or fact.

Andrea Dworkin

I worked on 'Happy-Go-Lucky' for seven-and-a-half months, and I'm in it for two minutes - largely because Sally Hawkins turned left instead of right.

Andrea Riseborough

The best songs/films/collections expose truths about life and make them universally accessible; they progress humanity.

Andreja Pejic

It's easy to see how non-profits become engrossed in catering to donors, which may or may not be the best thing at all times, while if a company is ultra-engaged with its customers, it's universally positive and helpful.

Andrew Yang

The American lionization of the entrepreneur is to ignore its foibles - the narcissism, the workaholism, the neglect of family, the imbalance, the obsession. These are not universally good things, though they are frequently universal to building great companies.

Andy Dunn

In the past I've made movies that were pretty universally liked. You can't really hate them. You can discard them, but you can't really hate them.

Ang Lee

It is a truth universally unacknowledged at Westminster that there is life after politics.

Ann Widdecombe

There's a difference between being an actress who can sing and being a Sally Song-and-Dance.
