break great nine shows
When you can break nine of our records, that shows you there were a lot of great efforts.
people used novel
People used to expect literary novels to deepen the experience of living; now they are happy with any sustained display of writerly cleverness.
children agency people
Just after Kim Jong Il's death, the official news agency put out an article saying that under Kim Jong Il's rule, the people had been like naive children without a care in the world.
reality people together
The reality is we all have to work together to make it work. We're going to be congenial with everyone. We're not telling people to park on the street.
bond coincides corporate investors looking market realized rises seeing signs strength
We're looking for signs that it won't continue, but right now I'm not seeing signs of that. The rises in corporate issuance coincides with strength in the market as investors realized the corporate bond market wouldn't let them down.
communication talking ideas
Talking is always a good idea. There's no harm in keeping lines of communication open.
korea support needs
If South Korea is going to survive, and keep the peace on the peninsula, its citizens need to start conveying support for their state.
mistake thinking years
That's a mistake I think that a lot of Western observers make is to assume that Korean nationalism is hundreds if not thousands of years old. When in fact nationalism is incompatible with Korean Confucian tradition.
korea people republic
People tend to overlook the fact that North Korea's economy collapsed at about the same time as South Koreans lost faith in their own state. The late 1980s and early 1990s were a time when South Koreans were questioning the very legitimacy of their republic.
thinking needs nuclear
I think the West needs to get away from the habit of regarding the regime's nuclear tests and ballistic launches as isolated provocations timed to generate maximum attention.
thinking people language
People who cannot distinguish between good and bad language, or who regard the distinction as unimportant, are unlikely to think carefully about anything else.
pain cutting animal
The idolatry of food cuts across class lines. This can be seen in the public's toleration of a level of cruelty in meat production that it would tolerate nowhere else. If someone inflicts pain on an animal for visual, aural, or sexual gratification, we consider him a monster, and the law makes at least a token effort at punishment. If someone's goal is to put the "product" in his mouth? ...
animal simple political
Life cannot be classified in terms of a simple neurological ladder, with human beings at the top; it is more accurate to talk of different forms of intelligence, each with its strengths and weaknesses. This point was well demonstrated in the minutes before last December's tsunami, when tourists grabbed their digital cameras and ran after the ebbing surf, and all the 'dumb' animals made for the hills.
positive remains sign
As long as issuance remains strong, and there's no sign that it won't, that's a positive for the financials.
