People are so grateful to have these showers, ... They were out here until midnight last night taking showers.
coach common knows memory people plays points voice
Kara's like another coach on the floor. She's very, very intelligent. She understands strategy. Her memory is unreal. She knows plays as well as I know them. And she's very vocal. If somebody's not in the right spot, she'll tell them immediately. She's a voice of reason. She points out common sense things that people don't get at times.
business computing core fails internet invested oracle people selling setting toast
Oracle wont be toast if Internet computing fails because it has too much invested in its core business of selling people databases and setting up databases and servicing databases.
asked people
The day will come when all of us will be asked a question, what did you do? People were dying, people were getting sick. It didn't have to happen, what did you do?
appreciate people world
The living environment is the biosphere, the thin layer around the world of living organisms. We're part of that. Our existence is dependent on it in ways that people haven't even begun to appreciate. Our existence depends not just on its existence, but its stability and its richness.
thinking agreement people
I think that's my nature, to want to bring people together rather than to try to bombard them into agreement.

beautiful people would-be

land people support
If everyone agreed to become vegetarian, leaving little or nothing for livestock, the present 1.4 billion hectares of arable land (3.5 billion acres) would support about 10 billion people,
religious intelligent people
I thought perhaps it should be recognized that religious people, including fundamentalists, are quite intelligent, many of them are highly educated, and they should be treated with complete respect.
past people labyrinth
Jungles and grasslands are the logical destinations, and towns and farmland the labyrinths that people have imposed between them sometime in the past. I cherish the green enclaves accidentally left behind.
thinking people quality
I think we will make it. Because one quality people have - certainly Americans have it - is that they can adapt when they see necessity staring them in the face. What to avoid is what someone once called the definition of hell: truth realized too late.
dust people purpose
People must belong to a tribe; they yearn to have a purpose larger than themselves. We are obligated by the deepest drives of the human spirit to make ourselves more than animated dust, and we must have a story to tell about where we came from, and why we are here.
rest-of-life people challenges
The great challenge of the twenty-first century is to raise people everywhere to a decent standard of living while preserving as much of the rest of life as possible.
