I can't tell you what will happen over the next four years. But I can only stand here tonight, as a wife, a mother, a grandmother, an American, and make you this solemn commitment: This man will not fail. This man will not let us down. This man will lift up America!

Ann Romney

I don't know if English is the only language where some expressions only and solely mean the opposite of what they say but we do have an awful lot of them.

A. A. Gill

My sole focus is to help bring a World Cup back to the U.S.

Abby Wambach

Nothing was more up-to-date when it was built, or is more obsolete today, than the railroad station.

Ada Louise Huxtable

Consumption is the sole end and purpose of all production; and the interest of the producer ought to be attended to, only so far as it may be necessary for promoting that of the consumer.

Adam Smith

Far too often, children with developmental disorders are diagnosed solely on the basis of their observable behavior, slotted into broad diagnostic pigeonholes and provided generalized treatments that may not always meet their specific needs.

Aditi Shankardass

To try to teach ignoring technology is to ignore the progress that we have made over the last century. If school is preparation for the real world - a real world that is increasingly technology-driven - then to ignore technology is to become obsolete.

Adora Svitak

I've been very lucky to work with great filmmakers. But I think my days of just freely acting regularly, that being my sole creative fulfillment, are gone.

Adrien Brody

The clear-sighted do not rule the world, but they sustain and console it.

Agnes Repplier

I certainly understand that we're all trying to make a living, but I'm not thinking about that when I'm making it. And if that's your sole motivation, it's going to reflect that narcissistic greed, and you're going to hear it in the music.

Aimee Mann

I love my cobbler, and he fixes my soles and soul for me.

Aisling Bea

I have no idea what the U.S. intends to do further there and what would be the reaction of the Iraqi people. I only know that the sole option is to leave Iraq to the Iraqi people.

Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani

It takes two hands to clap! I cannot be solely blamed for what happened in my relationships! If things soured, it happened because of both parties. Not just me!

Akshay Kumar

Alain de Botton

Since both its national products, snow and chocolate, melt, the cuckoo clock was invented solely in order to give tourists something solid to remember it by.

Alan Coren

The only way you get economic progress, real standards of living moving higher, is to have the savings of the society continuously invested in the cutting-edge technologies. And those technologies which are obsolescent get dropped out.

Alan Greenspan

I find that if I'm watching somebody upon television or in a movie that is on a window ledge or in some high precarious position my hand starts sweating and I get that crawling feeling in the soles of my feet.

Alan Moore

Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do.

Albert Bandura

Feasts must be solemn and rare, or else they cease to be feasts.

Aldous Huxley

The sole substitute for an experience which we have not ourselves lived through is art and literature.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

You have to be in movies that make money to be offered work. Basically that's the equation. There's no real way around that. That said, you don't ever make decisions solely for that reason.

Alessandro Nivola
