I think worrying things are going on in England - a real apathy.
I realized I probably wouldn't make another film that cuts through commercial and creative things like 'Godfather' or 'Apocalypse.'
I feel we need to remind the world about the Apollo missions and that we can still do impossible things.
I've made apologies to people I needed to, but I can't apologise to people I don't know for things they don't understand.
I've lived a very colorful life, and I've said some things, But not once have I taken them back, and I've never apologized for them - and I won't.
One of the things I'm trying to get better at is apologizing when I make mistakes. That's been a big priority of mine.
Maturity is the ability to reap without apology and not complain when things don't go well.
The waste of life occasioned by trying to do too many things at once is appalling.
Things meant to appeal to the masses usually end up appealing to no one.
Biology is the study of complicated things that have the appearance of having been designed with a purpose.
We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances.
In order for the United States to do the right things for the long term, it appears to be helpful for us to have the prospect of humiliation. Sputnik helped us fund good science - really good science: the semiconductor came out of it.
It's not about charisma and personality, it's about results and products and those very bedrock things that are why people at Apple and outside of Apple are getting more excited about the company and what Apple stands for and what its potential is to contribute to the industry.
There is no doubt that, since 1977 and the launch of Apple II - the first computer it produced for the mass market - many things which used to be done on paper, or on the telephone, have been done easier and faster on a screen.
There is this myth, that America is a melting pot, but what happens in assimilation is that we end up deliberately choosing the American things - hot dogs and apple pie - and ignoring the Chinese offerings.
We loved cars until the '70s or so. Then they became appliances. They turned into motorized cup holders. Most of it has to do with urban sprawl. What began as pleasure ends up in necessity, as so many things do.
Man's greatness consists in his ability to do and the proper application of his powers to things needed to be done.
Few things are impracticable in themselves; and it is for want of application, rather than of means, that men fail to succeed.
There are very few things impossible in themselves; and we do not want means to conquer difficulties so much as application and resolution in the use of means.
The most obvious characteristic of science is its application: the fact that, as a consequence of science, one has a power to do things. And the effect this power has had need hardly be mentioned. The whole industrial revolution would almost have been impossible without the development of science.
