If, however, you have richer pursuits in mind and know that no woman should be judged by how she looks - that everything she brings to the party is more important than the size of her arse - then refuse to be sucked into the never ending whirligig of self-doubting, self-hating madness that is stop-start dieting and crazy new exercise regimes.

The degree of political pressure to make MGNREGA jobs available varies massively from state to state - which is why access to MGNREGA jobs is worse in a very poor state like Bihar than in a richer state like Andhra Pradesh.

Abhijit Banerjee

I have always found that mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice.

Abraham Lincoln

Most rich countries have reported increases in happiness as they become richer.

Adam Davidson

You have friends, and they die. You have a disease, someone you care about has a disease, Wall Street people are scamming everyone, the poor get poorer, the rich get richer. That's what we're surrounded by all the time.

Adam Driver

You've got to be able to pay your bills; otherwise, you're not going to sleep at night. But beyond that, the world inside my head has always been a far richer place than the world outside it. I suppose that a lot of my art and writing are meant to bring the two together.

Alan Moore

Every great work makes the human face more admirable and richer, and that is its whole secret.

Albert Camus

Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier.

Albert Schweitzer

For the most part, congressional Republicans represent people who are whiter, older and richer than most Americans, and our creaky old political system gives those Americans disproportionate influence over public policy.

Alex Pareene

Red carpet dressing all depends on the climate. I think richer, deeper colours are more flattering on the body, but the opposite is true if you are in Cannes or St. Tropez where the light makes deep colours look heavy and unflattering.

Alice Temperley

Texts and e-mails travel no faster than phone calls and telegrams, and their content isn't necessarily richer or poorer.

Alison Gopnik

I threw away the whole of my working history, my photograph albums, diaries and stage clothes. Shoving big, ugly discs on walls is a bit like rubbing people's faces in it, saying 'I am considerably richer than you.' It is completely unnecessary.

Alison Moyet

Richer brows give you a sophisticated, feminine look.

Anastasia Soare

As an artist, you're taking your experiences and placing them into your art. So the more experiences you have, the richer your art and more people can relate to it.

Anderson Paak

Like many in academia and in the development industry, I am among globalization's greatest beneficiaries - those who are able to sell our services in markets that are larger and richer than our parents could have dreamed of.

Angus Deaton

Parents tend to value their lives more highly than people without kids, but they're different in lots of ways: They're richer. They're better educated. They're healthier.

Angus Deaton

Over time, my students have gotten richer and more educated.

Anna Deavere Smith

The world is richer than ever, and the gaps between rich and poor are wider.

Anna Lindh

It seems to me that since I've had children, I've grown richer and deeper. They may have slowed down my writing for a while, but when I did write, I had more of a self to speak from.

Anne Tyler

I would say 'Home' is a lot richer and deeper than my earlier classical.

Anoushka Shankar

Misguided economic and tax policies have hampered growth, allowing the rich to become richer while turning the middle class into the working poor.
