Alice Hamilton
The Real is ever-present, like the screen on which the cinematographic pictures move. While the picture appears on it, the screen remains invisible. Stop the picture, and the screen will become clear. All thoughts and events are merely pictures moving on the screen of Pure Consciousness, which alone is real.
Let me make the Workers’ Party’s position clear: When we deal with public discourse, I think it’s very helpful, in fact it’s critical, that we all deal with objective information.
I have just explained my idea of how a constructive per

I have just explained my idea of how a constructive period of reflection, one that would send a clear message to the citizens of Europe: You should now what our priorities are. For Germany this means: Unemployment is one of one of our biggest problems.
In recurring episodes over the next couple of decades, the minority view gradually won. A profusion of factors differentiates each case from the others, including naked partisanship on both sides, but the trend has been clear.

Things are neither clear nor clean in the world of football right now and many people recognise this reality.
I want to clear this once and for all. I was born in Hong Kong. I grew up in Japan and China. London is not home for me. I was there only for three years before I moved to India, but that’s probably why I am connected with it. London is definitely not the place I consider my home. It’s India that I consider home.
The choice, however, is as clear now for nations as it was once for the individual: peace or extinction.

The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.
Demonstrations must be dignified and nonviolent, as the overwhelming protests in Ferguson and Staten Island have been. Do not confuse anarchists who don’t want the system to work and thugs who want to exploit a situation with the majority who from day one have operated with impeccable nonviolence and clear goals.
The clear problem of the outlawing of insult is that too many things can be interpreted as such. Criticism, ridicule, sarcasm, merely stating an alternative point of view to the orthodoxy, can be interpreted as insult.

Our Supreme Court has been very clear that the government can’t just simply say something and make it so.

When something is new to us, we treat it as an experience. We feel that our senses are awake and clear. We are alive.
The Congress has made it clear that it has an alliance with the DMK, and it did face the elections with the DMK.

In India, I personally believe yes, there is a clear fear of unknown; there’s a lot of risk aversions in science and technology.

One very clear impression I had of all the Beautiful People was their prudence. It may be that they paid for their own airline tickets, but they paid for little else.
James Brady

Trump‘s pardon of Arpaio may not get as much attention as Russian influence or Trump’s apparent obstruction of justice in the Mueller investigation.

He was also very clear that the decision to cast me as Cora was all Michael‘s.
I’ve made it abundantly clear and I’ll repeat yet again there’s no question of gagging individuals.
Ron Davies
While satellite operators can dodge large pieces of deb

While satellite operators can dodge large pieces of debris and armour satellites to withstand the impact of smaller fragments, with the need for a growing number of satellites in orbit we must be able to monitor the space highways and to gradually clear it of obstructions.

John Burns
It is the ultimate luxury to combine passion and contribution. It’s also a very clear path to happiness.

We’ll make our voices heard loud and clear on the importance of cost-based power.

My study of the wild gorilla is not yet finished, and even when it is complete, it will contribute only a small part toward man’s understanding of his closest animal relatives, the great apes. But one conclusion is already clear: The gorilla is one of the most maligned animals in the world.
Brexit was not a coup. Far from it. In the eyes of most analysts, it was a clear sign that people are frustrated and fed up with the status quo; this is particularly the case with independent voters.
I was lucky that I started very young, since I had a very clear idea of what I wanted to do. But my father is very conservative, and he never considered fashion to be a real career but something I could pursue as a hobby. He wanted me to be a doctor, and at one point, I thought of becoming a plastic surgeon.
Israel can't make peace without the clear support of th

Israel can’t make peace without the clear support of the United States.
I have made it totally clear to the players that my door will always be open.

John Gibbon
Yeah, so when ‘Avatar‘ came out, the social media world and the idea of fan communities were very new. There were forums and you could obviously go to conventions and talk to people, but it wasn’t as clear or easy.
Aaron Ehasz
I’ve always been able to get into the box, but in the past, I’d been very rash in my finishing; I wasn’t clear with what I was doing in the final third. When it came to shooting, I was very rushed. I wasn’t hitting the ball cleanly.
There is only one way to achieve happiness on this terrestrial ball, and that is to have either a clear conscience or none at all.

Growing up, I was vaguely aware of things that went on in church, because I was in the boys’ choir at the local Episcopal church. But I got the clear message that I was supposed to learn music there, and not pay too much attention to the rest of it, and I followed those instructions very carefully.
The Bible is very clear about one thing: Using politics to create fairness is a sin.

Bob Kerrey

It’s hard to improve public education – that’s clear.
I don't steer clear of genres. I simply haven't steered

I don’t steer clear of genres. I simply haven‘t steered myself toward some of them.

In the real world, answers may not be clear cut. There will be messy choices, and you’re not going to be able to construct a policy response in a neat and tidy way. Being able to listen to other people, even as you stay true to your principles, that’s how you actually succeed.
Jake Sullivan
People spend a lifetime thinking about how they would really like to live. I asked my friends and no one seems to know very clearly. To me it’s very clear now. I wish my life could have been like the years when I was writing ‘Love in the Time of Cholera.’

Karim Benzema
Growing up, I was a giant KISS fan, and the truth is the record I had was ‘Rock and Roll Over,’ and there wasn’t even a clear picture of them in the packaging! So I really had no idea what they looked like; I just loved their music.

You just look at the world, and you see things unraveli

Tiki Barber
You see, in government, people give you a mandate, and you’ve got to fulfil that. Ours is very clear. Fix our public finances and get our country working.
I use a Bruce Lee technique: ‘The way of no way.’ He had the idea that he would learn everything, so that whoever he had to fight, he could improvise anything.

It is a clear truth that those who every day barter away other men’s liberty will soon care little for their own.

I’m fortunate that the books sell, but even more fortunate to live in Chatham, to be very happily married and to have, on the whole, a fairly clear conscience.
Bernard Cornwell
For skincare, I’m a Clean and Clear girl. Especially with the humidity in Georgia, Clean and Clear has been pretty good to me with all of the makeup we have to wear. My skin really responds to that product. I’m also a big fan of Kiehl’s under-eye avocado cream.
It’s not all that different with the orchestra. There are orchestras that seem to be encased in dough, so that first you have to break through the normal routine, and clear out the openings.
Especially with a comedy, you’ve got the clear cut goal of trying to make a scene funny. It’s not like drama where you’re trying to achieve some kind of emotion or trying to further the story along. You’re trying to figure out what’s the funniest way to do something.
