I do close to 30 minutes in cardio at a very high rate. I raise the level of intensity. I do a level 18 on the elliptical at four miles an hour for 20 minutes. That’s 360 calories. I want to see someone else try that. The resistance factor at 18 is brutal. No one goes to 20.

I don’t know how you make decisions in your life, but I weigh lots of things, and it’s not always the purest of things for why I take a job or do this. I always try to think of the many different factors in my life, and not one is pure greed. One is pure quality of life.

The woman factor explains many things of men.

Kids are meant to believe that their stepping stone to massive money is ‘The X Factor.’ Luck is great, but most of life is hard work. We do not celebrate people who have made success out of serious hard work.

Since philosophy is a piece of human character, it merits a spot in the realm of endless facts.

Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike.

It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man’s life is made up of nothing, but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.

There are no eternal facts, as there are no absolute truths.

There are no facts, only interpretations.

I love the fact that I can make people happy, in any form

But while they prate of economic laws, men and women are starving. We must lay hold of the fact that economic laws are not made by nature. They are made by human beings

We pretend to be a free society, and we pretend to be an adult society, but if you look at the facts, our news is just as contrived, and controlled as Pravda

Bad facts make bad law, and people who write bad laws are in my opinion more dangerous than songwriters who celebrate sexuality

Everybody believes in something and everybody, by virtue of the fact that they believe in something, uses that something to support their own existence

Does our ferocity not derive from the fact that our instincts are all too interested in other people? If we attended more to ourselves and became the center, the object of our murderous inclinations, the sum of our intolerances would diminish.

He who hates himself is not humble.

The fact that life has no meaning is a reason to live – moreover, the only one.

The Essence of Knowledge is, having it, to use it.

Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.

There have been several Duchesses of Westminster but there is only one Chanel

One can get used to ugliness, but never to negligence.

Capel said, Remember that you’re a woman. All too often I forgot that.

I loved the fact that Obama is multi-racial. I thought that was terrific, as my wife is the same racial make-up.

The cure for poverty has a name, in fact: it’s called the empowerment of women. If you give women some control over the rate at which they reproduce, if you give them some say, take them off the animal cycle of reproduction to which nature and some doctrine—religious doctrine condemns them, and then if you throw in a handful of seeds perhaps and some credit, the floor of everything in that village, not just poverty, but education, health, and optimism will increase. It doesn’t matter; try and do it without empowering women, you can’t do it. The benefits are so many.

With a hand that could be felt, the Lord opened my mind to the fact that it would be possible to sail from here to the Indies. All who heard of my project rejected it with laughter, ridiculing me.

War is the realm of uncertainty; three quarters of the factors on which action is based are wrapped in a fog of greater or lesser uncertainty.

In short, absolute, so-called mathematical, factors never find a firm basis in military calculations. From the very start, there is an interplay of possibilities, probabilities, good luck and bad, that weaves its way throughout the length and breadth of the tapestry. In the whole range of human activities, war most closely resembles a game of cards.

But to find the truth we need imagination and skepticism both. We will not be afraid to speculate, but we will be careful to distinguish speculation from fact.

The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses.

The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses.

The fact is that far more crime and child abuse has been committed by zealots in the name of God, Jesus and Mohammed than has ever been committed in the name of Satan. Many people don’t like that statement, but few can argue with it.

There are in fact 100 billion galaxies, each of which contain something like a 100 billion stars. Think of how many stars, and planets, and kinds of life there may be in this vast and awesome universe.

When Kepler found his long-cherished belief did not agree with the most precise observation, he accepted the uncomfortable fact. He preferred the hard truth to his dearest illusions, that is the heart of science.
