Research is of considerable importance in certain fields such as science and history.

I felt strongly that since the pursuit of good science was so difficult it was essential that the problem being studied was an important one to justify the effort expanded.

Nothing is less important than which fork you use. Etiquette is the science of living. It embraces everything. It is ethics. It is honor.

It is sometimes important for science to know how to forget the things she is surest of.

The pro athlete is a sad tale. He signs a big contract and thinks he's set for life. I didn't think I was set for life and I don't now. As athletes we are important celebrities in demand and rich. Then we are out of the game and we are not important not celebrities not in demand and not rich.

This was an important part of my life. But it was also sad that we didn't play there cause we had such alot of fans that were waiting for us and Brazilians are great people. It's now my second home.

But I now entered on my fifteenth year - a sad epoch in the life of a slave girl. My master began to whisper foul words in my ear. Young as I was I could not remain ignorant of their import.

Marketing has supplanted story as the primary force behind the worthiness of making a film and that's a very sad thing. It's film only as a function of consumerism rather than as an important component of our culture and that's everywhere around the world.

There were two sides to David Lean: on the one side he was kind of a rather stiff disciplined Englishman. And then he had this kind of romantic side to him. I think being true to both sides of your nature is important.

But romantic vision can also lead one away from certain very hard ugly truths about life that are important to know.

I'm a feminist but I think that romance has been taken away a bit for my generation. I think what people connect with in novels is this idea of an overpowering encompassing love - and it being more important and special than anything and everything else.

My object will be first to show by what connections the history of the fossil bones of land animals is linked to the theory of the earth and why they have a particular importance in this respect.

I received from my experience in Japan an incredible sense of respect for the art of creating not just the creative product. We're all about the product. To me the process was also an incredibly important aspect of the total form.

Another important aspect of our home was respect for ideas.

We never really felt a real level of respect. The fame was fantastic but that wasn't that important to me because for every million people that loved me I focused on the one that hated me.

You can't tell your kids to read if you're just watching television. They have to see you read. And in that respect I think it's important to walk the walk. It's a wonderful shared time.

Teachers have the hardest and most important jobs in America. They're building our nation. And we should appreciate them respect them and pay them well.

I have a feeling that being in love sometimes means the projection of your desires onto another person. The important thing is that you like the other person respect the other person and want to raise children with the other person.

I think it's important for artists to work together. It's great for fans to see like Ludacris came out to our show in Atlanta and kinda made a surprise appearance there it shows a mutual respect for what each other does.

That's the most important thing to me - that if I'm gonna spend however long it takes to make a movie give up 14 hours a day for however many weeks or months then it's very important for me to know that I'm working with people who I respect and enjoy and that we're going for something together.

Psychology is as important as substance. If you treat people with respect they will go out of their way to accommodate you. If you treat them in a patronizing way they will go out of their way to make your life difficult.

Respect for the fragility and importance of an individual life is still the mark of an educated man.

But it's important while we are supporting lessons in respecting others to remember that many of our youngest kids need to learn to respect themselves. You learn your worth from the way you are treated.

Don't ever know who you may meet or just because a person may not be dressed up all fancy don't mean they're not an important person. You just don't ever know who you're gonna meet in life. So that's why I look at everybody as equal. Can't just judge. I treat everybody with respect. Every man.
