He has a very extensive public relations apparatus that is paid for by the taxpayers of this state. They are some of the best in the business. and he is a master at getting not only television but other media exposure on the basis of confrontation and chaos.

Bill Scott

When there's a status quo, usually what shakes everybody up is some sort of military confrontation, at which point we all come running and screaming to pick up the pieces.

Abdullah II of Jordan

Over the past few years, the road to confrontation has shown its consequences: loss of innocent lives, destruction and fear. Most costly, however, was the loss of hope. The most precious gift that you can present to your peoples over the coming weeks is renewed hope born out of tangible progress on the ground.

Abdullah II of Jordan

I don't think that confrontation always leads to a solution.

Abhay Deol

I'm not afraid of confrontation. It doesn't have to be an argument. We all have a voice. And they are all worth listening to.

Adam Goodes

The Polish freedom movement of 1968 lost its confrontation with police violence; the Prague Spring was crushed by the armies of five Warsaw Pact members. But in both countries, 1968 gave birth to a new political consciousness.

Adam Michnik

For me, everybody is the same. If you are not nice to me, I will say, 'Okay, we will try to make it nice tomorrow.' I am like that. I am not a confrontational person.

Adnan Sami

Turkey wants a policy of engagement exactly like President Obama's new approach. Policy of engagement, less confrontation, less tense attitude, especially in the region.

Ahmet Davutoglu

Any confrontation, such as a verbal one with the United States, would be harmful for everybody.

Alain Juppe

I know there's an impression that I'm someone who seeks to have violent confrontations with people. I don't. Do I regret screaming at some guy who practically clipped my kid in the head with the lens of a camera? Yeah, I probably do, because it's only caused me problems.

Alec Baldwin

War is murder. And the military preparations now being made for a potential major confrontation are aimed at collective murder. In a nuclear age the victims would be numbered by the millions. This naked truth must be faced.

Alva Myrdal

I had my moments for sure but I wasn't confrontational. And sometimes you get on the court and you'd find yourself very confrontational. It was all a discovery.

Andre Agassi

Confrontation is something that I accept as part of the project though not its purpose.

Andy Goldsworthy

I'm not a confrontational person in real life, so I really don't wanna get into arguments or fistfights with people I'm making fun of.

Andy Kindler

The bed is now as public as the dinner table and governed by the same rules of formal confrontation.

Angela Carter

I can't stand confrontation, which maybe is a character flaw. But having said that, I do feel like when I do get upset - which is rare, as my husband and family would say - I have a hard time letting go.

Anna Faris

I make spaces that are calm rather than confrontational. I seek a certain kind of logic that allows you to move in space and perceive it as beautiful and rational. Clarity is a worthwhile quality.

Annabelle Selldorf

My first boxing experience came at around 14. There was always confrontation in the area I grew up in. My mentality, I'll be honest, was if someone tries it with me, I want to be able to knock them out.

Anthony Yarde

Consciousness permits us to develop the instruments of culture - morality and justice, religion, art, economics and politics, science and technology. Those instruments allow us some measure of freedom in the confrontation with nature.

Antonio Damasio

The bigger confrontation is the one an individual has with itself.

Asghar Farhadi

When we talk about self-confrontations, we are speaking about moral issues rather than social issues.
