I put the copy of 'A Christmas Carol' that my grandfather had first read to me 60 years ago on my desk and I began to write. The result for better or for worse is the 'Christmas Spirits.' I plan to read it to my grandson.

It will be a hard game if you think about winning a championship. We need to think about our own game at the moment and focus on getting good results especially over the Christmas period.

Confidence doesn't come out of nowhere. It's a result of something... hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication.

Work joyfully and peacefully knowing that right thoughts and right efforts inevitably bring about right results.

When large numbers of men are unable to find work unemployment results.

Results! Why man I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work.

Just as man can't exist without his body so no rights can exist without the right to translate one's rights into reality to think to work and keep the results which means: the right of property.

I've always believed that if you put in the work the results will come.

Before you start some work always ask yourself three questions - Why am I doing it What the results might be and Will I be successful. Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions go ahead.

Managers in all too many American companies do not achieve the desired results because nobody makes them do it.

When more and more people are thrown out of work unemployment results.

Nothing ever comes to one that is worth having except as a result of hard work.

The result showed the wisdom of your orders.

Wisdom is not acquired save as the result of investigation.

Economists often like startling theorems results which seem to run counter to conventional wisdom.

It may almost be a question whether such wisdom as many of us have in our mature years has not come from the dying out of the power of temptation rather than as the results of thought and resolution.

My point was that the war was intrinsically wrong and as a result of our participation we haven't improved Australia's security but created a greater danger at home and abroad.

We live in the time where we have fictitious election results that elects a fictitious president. We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons.

As a result of my philosophy I wasn't even upset about Hitler. I was willing to go to war to knock him off but I didn't hate him. I hated what he was doing.

In war events of importance are the result of trivial causes.

There are historic situations in which refusal to defend the inheritance of a civilization however imperfect against tyranny and aggression may result in consequences even worse than war.

Every attempt to make war easy and safe will result in humiliation and disaster.

Brainy folks were also present in Lyndon Johnson's administration especially in the Pentagon where Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara's brilliant 'whiz kids' tried to micro-manage the Vietnam war with disastrous results.

War is a series of catastrophes which result in victory.

I've been & am absurdly over-estimated. There are no supermen & I'm quite ordinary & will say so whatever the artistic results. In that point I'm one of the few people who tell the truth about myself.

There are various eyes. Even the Sphinx has eyes: and as a result there are various truths and as a result there is no truth.

If the security forces continue to be dominated as they are now by political groups or sects then the people won't trust in them - and the result will be civil war or fragmentation of the country.

Trust your gut instinct over spreadsheets. There are too many variables in the real world that you simply can't put into a spreadsheet. Spreadsheets spit out results from your inexact assumptions and give you a false sense of security. In most cases your heart and gut are still your best guide.

We've outsourced our memories to digital devices and the result is that we no longer trust our memories. We see every small forgotten thing as evidence that they're failing us.

Every president has to live with the result of what Lyndon Johnson did with Vietnam when he lost the trust of the American people in the presidency.
