In many cases, the Treasury will get preferred or convertible preferred stock for the money it gives to banks. These shares typically don’t have voting rights, possibly to give more of a hands-off appearance to the government.
I’m intrigued by the way in which physical appearance can often direct a person’s life; things happen differently for a beautiful woman than for a plain one.
Why should I dislike anything about my appearance? I came off the factory line this way. I am perfect.
A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.
Obama’s a great speaker. Because of his speaking ability and his appearance, a lot of guys got on board. Being the first African American, a lot guys got on board.
My workspace is a white room with a big computer monitor and a light box. It can be very messy. Sometimes I get into trouble with my husband for that. Then I run around like a lunatic cleaning up and creating the appearance of order.
This is what’s hard: I know I’m legally a man, but I’m also male-minded, despite having the female appearance.
My art is an attempt to reach beyond the surface appearance. I want to see growth in wood, time in stone, nature in a city, and I do not mean its parks but a deeper understanding that a city is nature too-the ground upon which it is built, the stone with which it is made.
Our elections are too important to risk even the appearance of impropriety.
I know you’re supposed to love yourself, but I really hate the way I look. When I look in the mirror I’m so disgusted by the chocolate blancmange abomination staring back at me, I actually apologise to my wife for my physical appearance. I’ve got no backside, an overhanging belly and I’m so disproportionate.
I will always wear what I want and have some fun doing it. I’m not afraid to take risks with my appearance. I’m not so vain.
Seeing guys in their most vulnerable state talking about their bodies gives me an opportunity to talk about everything. Once they open up about their appearance, then usually they are willing to open up about pretty much everything.
It honestly affects my mental health, social media, on a really profound level. Because I’m constantly being bombarded with an image of femininity that I feel I have to adhere to. And I think there’s a lot of pressure in this industry, as well, being constantly discriminated on your aesthetic appearance.
When I am tanned and in shape I feel confident about my appearance.
The discovery of truth is prevented more effectively, not by the false appearance things present and which mislead into error, not directly by weakness of the reasoning powers, but by preconceived opinion, by prejudice.
The focus on my appearance has really surprised me. I’ve always been a size 14 to 16, I don’t care about clothes, I’d rather spend my money on cigarettes and booze.
I don’t dislike my appearance at all.
If you’ve made it big in Bollywood, such as Kareena Kapoor Khan and Katrina Kaif, and then you do an item song, it becomes a ‘guest appearance.’ That’s how it works. Sadly, that’s the attitude of our Hindi film industry.
Truth be told, in determining what you want and who you want to be with, you will be compromising in certain areas. It can be in the area of appearance or occupation or maybe even certain personality characteristics, but no one person can have everything.
Obviously, there’s more to aesthetic appearance than just race, but that is going to be the first thing that someone notices when they look at a picture.
L.A. is a very strange place. On the surface, it has an innocent appearance, like the stranger with the pleasant face that smiles and shakes your hand. But then you learn it is actually a lot less nice than you think, and there’s a whole deeper, darker level.
I get insecure about a lot of things. In my line of work, unfortunately, your appearance is important, and I’m always like, ‘Am I going to the gym enough this month? Have I been taking care of myself?’ I get insecure about things from time to time.
My father and I had a good relationship, it was very relaxed. He had a lot of humour. He looked a little bit like me, although he had no beard. He had the appearance of a very elegant British-looking man.
Neglect of appearance becomes men.
Given that I often wear shorts with a T-shirt, baseball cap, and backpack most days, a crew-neck shirt gives me the appearance of an undercover cop on the way to a sting operation at a summer camp.
The appearance of a single great genius is more than equivalent to the birth of a hundred mediocrities.
Rolf Ekeus, his appearance can deceive. He looks somewhere between an international diplomat and a mad professor. He’s got that sort of shock of white hair and a slightly absent-minded way of speaking. But he’s extremely sharp and very serious about power relationships.
There’s so much more to me as a human being than just my appearance, and I want to integrate that into my work.
I like to make people feel happy and superior in their reaction towards my appearance.

I know I am more on the sexual side in terms of my appearance, which is something that the metal world is not used to. But I am comfortable with it. It’s how I express my art, and myself.
To tell you the truth, people might think going from a model to a North Korean defector would’ve been difficult in appearance. For me, the focus was not on the external but internal side of things, to fully understand Sae-byeok’s life.
Your appearance shouldn’t define who you are, and that’s what I like, the contrast between people looking like the opposite of what they truly are deep inside.
Certainly, I am writing as a 21st-century woman, so I am much more inclined to view her as a three-dimensional woman. I think we keep coming up with this stubborn problem of a woman being judged by her appearance rather than her accomplishments. We are much more inclined to ask: was Cleopatra beautiful?
The external appearance of any construction projects that are created during the time of the National Socialist Reich must take on the sensibility of our time.
January 14, 2000, was my first time on stage, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I got discovered nationally in Seattle by the now-defunct HBO Comedy Festival, and that led to an appearance on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ and a path to a professional comedy career.
The denial with which many African leaders and communities greeted the appearance of HIV and AIDS across the continent in the 1990s is now considered a tragic mistake rather than a purposeful pushback against lingering colonial prejudice.
I make sure the foods I eat will benefit the appearance of my hair, skin and nails.
Portia de Rossi is a gorgeous woman, and I found it incredibly refreshing to discover that she puts very little stock in her appearance, instead preferring to concentrate on what goodness she can put into the world around her – a choice we can all learn from.
An actor is totally vulnerable. His total personality is exposed to critical judgment – his intellect, his bearing, his diction, his whole appearance. In short, his ego.
It is soul-destroying to have your work and physical appearance picked to pieces.
I always thought that owing to their social standing, army spouses had to maintain a dignified appearance, no matter what, at all times and that their only source of entertainment was the officers’ parties.
Possibly because I grew up not feeling very confident about my own physical appearance, I developed internal devices so that I could integrate into society.
Moe’s the first character that I played that actually allowed me to embrace all parts of myself, including my physical appearance, the things that make me angry, the things that I would consider quirks or little things that make me funny. I still carry those things that I learned from Trinkets to this day.
Donald Trump, who surely has lots of high-stakes issues on which to focus, is consumed with the appearance of women.
I’ve always considered myself to look like a rather plain-and-exhausted bluestocking, so it’s rather odd to read Tweets commenting on my appearance.
No matter what a woman’s appearance may be, it will be used to undermine what she is saying and taken to individualize – as her personal problem – observations she makes about the beauty myth in society.
Some people are denizens of the studio. I’m more of a denizen of the live appearance. I love the live thing.
With pop music and pop musicians, you know everything about everyone all the time, particularly their physical appearance. With female musicians, that’s made a big thing of, and I think people, certainly with me, have appreciated a bit of mystery.
I owed Lewis one thing, at least. Once you had suffered the experience of presenting a case at one of his Monday morning conferences, no other public appearance, whether on radio, TV or the lecture platform, could hold any terrors for you.
Clothes and manners do not make the man; but when he is made, they greatly improve his appearance.
When Wolf Blitzer wears a not-so-great tie, how much e-mail do you think he gets? My point is, for women, unfortunately, appearance is part of the job.
