Justice should remove the bandage from her eyes long enough to distinguish between the vicious and the unfortunate.
I think it’s really unfortunate that academics have been sidelined in most important policy debates.
That level of trade deficit throttles real growth in our country and continues the unfortunate path of selling out America. We are not winning the global trade war, we are losing it badly.
Compassion is not weakness, and concern for the unfortunate is not socialism.
The more people know about you, the less they can project who you are supposed to be. It’s unfortunate that you really only get one shot at that.
In school, we learn that mistakes translate into bad grades. This unfortunate lesson gets burned into our brains, and we go through life shunning challenges that might end in failure.
President Donald Trump’s decision to ban American aid to all organisations that in any way advocate women’s right to abortions is very unfortunate. All experience shows that this kind of decision does not reduce the number of abortions; rather, it forces girls and women to revert to life-threatening procedures.
I always think the really unfortunate thing about the Australian film industry is its lack of momentum. And I don’t mean this in a derogatory way. I’m always wanting it to pick up momentum, and I’m wondering if that’s even possible.
There’s this weird thing that happens when you contribute something to a static profile. You have to worry about how this new content fits in with your online persona that’s supposed to be you. It’s uncomfortable and unfortunate.
Unfortunately, the diplomatic destruction Netanyahu is causing will lead Israel to lose its Jewish majority and become a binational state. This unfortunate fact is something no law can hide.
A startup is literally just a series of unfortunate events where you failed, failed, failed, and failed until you succeed.
The fastidious are unfortunate; nothing satisfies them.
A moral stand by the sports industry is what finally settled the long, unfortunate debate over Mississippi’s state flag.
Alas for the affairs of men! When they are fortunate you might compare them to a shadow; and if they are unfortunate, a wet sponge with one dash wipes the picture away.
Sprawl is the American ideal way to develop. I believe that what we’re developing in Denver is in no appreciable way different than what we’re doing in Los Angeles – did in Los Angeles and are still doing. But I think we have developed the Los Angeles model of city-building, and I think it is unfortunate.
I was getting a lot of really nasty feedback about my weight during ‘Fargo,’ which is unfortunate because I am statistically a completely average-size woman.
It’s an unfortunate fact that in the male black population, a very significant percentage of them, more so than whites or other minority candidates, because of convictions, prison records, are never going to be hired by a police department. That’s a reality. That’s not a byproduct of stop-and-frisk.
Every time humanists try to get a slot on ‘Thought For the Day’ on Radio 4, they are told it’s reserved for ‘the faith community,’ whatever that is. Yet ‘TfT’ is almost always pabulum about how God wants us all to love each other and care for the unfortunate. I’m sure humanists would say much the same, without God.
It is unfortunate whenever someone tries to bring politics into sport.
I do believe that people hire immigrants, legal and illegal immigrants, to do certain jobs that maybe possibly could go to American citizens, and that’s unfortunate. If they’re here legally, I think it’s OK. If they’re here illegally, then they ought not be taking jobs from American citizens.
It is unfortunate that in every industry, there are people who take advantage of needy people, but I would like to tell all the budding actors not to be vulnerable and always have a backup plan because rejection in auditions and films is not the end of the world.
There’s been an unfortunate history of efforts to make sure Florida’s votes don’t count. Given that history, it’s clear why people here would be especially concerned about efforts undertaken by Super PACs and the corporations that fund them to dictate the outcome of elections.
I think it’s unfortunate that there exists only one path in America to complete social legitimacy, and that is marriage. I think, for instance, that it would be far easier for Americans to elect a black president or a female president than an unmarried president.
It’s always unfortunate when a reporter is sent behind bars for failing to turn over sources. There’s no way to say what the long-term outcome will be.
It’s unfortunate that in an interview sometimes things can seem so black and white.
For those unfortunate enough to experience it, long-term unemployment – now, as in the 1930s – is a tragedy. And, for society as a whole, there is the danger that the productive capacity of a significant portion of the labour force will be impaired.
I’ve toured all over the world, and all over the UK too, but I mainly get to see venues, hotels and airports – which is a bit unfortunate.
It’s something that jazz has gotten away from, and it’s unfortunate. Players aren’t physical anymore.
I think the association of economics with forecasting is unfortunate and is down to the fact that one great way to get an investment bank’s name on business television is to hire a guy called a Chief Economist who will go and prognosticate.
There’s a difference between being a star and an actor. If you feed off from being in the public eye, this is the unfortunate flipside to it.
I think we ought to strip our laws and regulations of everything that rewards or recommends or requires preferential treatment by race. I think that is one of the single most unfortunate changes of the 1960s and it is one that we can change at no cost.
The unfortunate thing about this planet is that we are in no shortage of ignorance.
Ronaldo is a fantastic player, one of the best I’ve ever seen, but he’s been a bit unfortunate to be of the same generation as Messi. Consequently, they have to share the limelight.
Tech innovation is something societies have to pursue as vigorously as they can. We have to innovate civically and socially at the same rate; otherwise, you create unfortunate disruptions, and that’s where you have people opposing technological innovations.
Pakistan doesn’t value its artistes. I will get trolled for what I have said, but that is the reality. It is unfortunate.
The unfortunate thing is, for the contents of the building I could not get any insurance anywhere in Canada.
It is better, however, for his own reputation that the story-teller should risk a few actions for libel on account of these unfortunate coincidences than that he should adopt the melancholy device of using blanks or asterisks.
A fundamental and unfortunate part of being alive is to suffer loss and to suffer grief.
It’s unfortunate that myself, as a black man, cannot care about the issues that impact the black community without being seeing as a race-baiter or without being seen as someone who doesn’t care about any other ethnic groups.
I think it’s unfortunate to have critics for friends.
Every unfortunate event does not give rise to lawsuit.
This trend of reporting process over substance is unfortunate, if omnipresent. Even worse is the media’s inability – or unwillingness – to fact-check Republicans who are angry about the Democrats trying to debate and vote on Iraq policy.
I don’t see how they can with most of my pieces, but I think it’s unfortunate that they can through familiarity with flashy performances of a great deal of other music.
It’s unfortunate. Title IX is rather simple: don’t discriminate on the basis of sex.
There are photographers who don’t really engage with their subject. It’s a really unfortunate phrase, but they take their photo and they leave with it. It works but I think it ultimately limits how profound the work can be.
When I read my interviews, I feel, is it me? I constantly wonder if someone will get hurt if I say this or that. It is unfortunate that I am scared to say what I feel.
The people who don’t like it tend to dislike it intensely. That’s unfortunate, but not surprising when one deliberately goes against audience expectations.
The feminist movement is not about success for women. It is about treating women as victims and about telling women that you can’t succeed because society is unfair to you, and I think that’s a very unfortunate idea to put in the minds of young women because I believe women can do whatever they want.
I think that what is truly unfortunate is when an entire party makes a decision that they’re going to block every single thing that a president wants to accomplish. It’s very – it’s very hard to get anything done in those circumstances.
It’s unfortunate, you know, that you can’t change people’s – habits, their personal habits.
A lot of professions happen to be male-dominated because women drop out at a certain point. It’s unfortunate.
On the contrary, if they are treated with justice and humanity, proper example and the advantages of education given them, the coming years will be as bright and prosperous to the unfortunate race as the past has been dark and painful.
There are proven health benefits for both babies and mothers who breastfeed, and it’s unfortunate that it still carries an unfair stigma in our society.
