I’m from East Palo Alto, California. I grew up with zero dollars.
If the CIA and other U.S. intelligence agencies were private companies and were chronically unable to accomplish one of their key missions, their shareholders would have long ago revolted, fired their management, and their stock would be trading at values near zero.
We have to keep up our guard. We won’t get the risk of Ebola to zero in the U.S. until we stop it in West Africa. And Ebola is hard to fight. It requires intensity. It requires speed and flexibility.
All nuclear weapon states should now recognize that this is so, and declare – in Treaty form – that they will never be the first to use nuclear weapons. This would open the way to the gradual, mutual reduction of nuclear arsenals, down to zero.
I found it peculiar that those who wanted to take military action could – with 100 per cent certainty – know that the weapons existed and turn out to have zero knowledge of where they were.
The hydrogen powered car, with its high fuel mileage and zero emission rate, is just one example of the products under development that will help increase our energy independence.
Since the beginning of the computer age, there has been immense development in computer intelligence but exactly zero development in computer consciousness.
We must have the approach of ‘zero tolerance’ against any type of terrorism.
God is the tangential point between zero and infinity.
It is impossible to insure that there is a zero percent chance of any kind of foodborne illness anytime anyone eats anywhere.
I apologize for being the voice of reason here, but this sports fan has almost zero interest in seeing women dunk a basketball. It’s a nice little novelty act that has a very short life span.
My mother married three times. My dad is… I don’t really have one. I mean, he does exist, but I have zero relationship with him.
I know Charlie Kaufman really well, for instance. Charlie Kaufman starts a story, and he has no freaking idea where he’s going. None. Zero. And he doesn’t want to know, because there’s a little bit of death in that.
No man should think himself a zero, and think he can do nothing about the state of the world.
Sudden money is going from zero to two hundred dollars a week. The rest doesn’t count.
We have this interesting problem with black holes. What is a black hole? It is a region of space where you have mass that’s confined to zero volume, which means that the density is infinitely large, which means we have no way of describing, really, what a black hole is!
As it is, ‘Size Zero’ is not for me. I feel a woman should have a feminine figure.
Climate change must be approached as an opportunity to transition our economy to a zero carbon future. Business understands this even when governments don’t.
You already have zero privacy – get over it.
The problem with industrial food is zero transparency. The system thrives on the fact that there is no transparency.
‘Zero Dark Thirty’ raised the stakes. It raised the stakes in cinema, man. I don’t think people really know how to grasp what type of film this is.
We do not have a revenue problem in D.C. or this county. We have a prioritization problem. When you create the priorities you fund the priorities of the country and you stop spending money when you get to zero.
In a zero corporate tax rate environment, if the private sector doesn’t create tens of millions of jobs, then I don’t know what it takes to create tens of millions of jobs.
I was writing full time after quitting a job as a high school English teacher, and I hadn’t been able to sell anything, and my bank account was down to zero, and all of my friends were like ‘What are you doing in the basement, when are you going to get a real job?’, and my parents thought I’d completely lost it.
I was diagnosed with a severe temporal spatial deficit, a learning disability that means I have zero spatial relations skills. It was official: I was a genius trapped in an idiot’s body.
We have to show zero tolerance on match and frame-fixing. There is no other option than a life ban.
I’ve had the zeroes since junior high school. We didn’t have enough numbered shirts to go around, so my shirt was called double zero. I liked it, so I kept it.
I never did drugs and I can’t really drink because I have zero tolerance for alcohol, so my vice became women. I was never faithful to most of them.
I have always appreciated the honest brutality of the international film world. One need never doubt one’s worth in the market. Mine was zero.
The individual incentive not to commit crime on Wall Street now is almost zero.
My mantra has always been to have zero regrets in life. Everything I do at one speed, I go all-out.
I went to an all-girls pre school where everyone went off to Harvard or Yale, and I had zero interest in doing so. I think they thought I was on drugs. There was a neighboring all-boys school, so we’d get together and do dumb things. It was your typical Catholic-American upbringing.
I went to graduate school with zero expectation. I kind of backed into it. I wanted to go back to school because I felt gaps in my literary background. I studied mostly twentieth-century English literature in college, so I thought, ‘Maybe I’ll go back for my writing.’
Positive social awareness among the South African educated half-caste is zero. Teaching is a mechanical job. The best way of earning a living.
When you have the president arguing that there was mass voter fraud in the absence of any evidence whatsoever – I mean, literally zero – what’s to stop anyone from saying so-and-so’s a so-and-so?
‘Argo,’ ‘Lincoln,’ and ‘Zero Dark Thirty,’ three films honored with Best Picture Oscar nominations, lionize their Washington-anchored protagonists as crafty, competent, and virtually incorruptible.
As seemingly impossible as it may seem of having zero regrets, when I look at my life now and all the mistakes I’ve made, all the bad decisions I’ve made, all the things I could have done differently or done more in, I don’t think I would have changed anything.
A change is always difficult for a player and his family. You are starting from zero and you have to adapt to a new league.
I’m a fast foodie – like, a foodie, but with food courts. I’d love to go with all my friends to a food court that’s also a buffet – with unlimited orange chicken from Panda Express, curly fries from Arby’s, Hawaiian pizza from Sbarro, and Coke Zero. I’m a simple man with simple pleasures.
Imam Rauf and his backers have every legal right to build their extravagant Islamic center within the lethal radius of Ground Zero. But the rest of us have the right to question why they insist on doing so.
Before I fought Adonis Stevenson in 2013, I had 4lbs to shift in a morning before weighing in. I had zero energy left to train, so the nutritional adviser said the only way was to drag it from my body in a hot bath full of salts.
I care about the people saying they’re protecting us not protecting us. That’s a big zero.
When you’re playing football, you have to have that zero fear. Because if you’re scared, you’re going to maybe not reach out for a ball, because there’s a safety in the middle of the field. Or you might not want to make a play because you’re going to be hit really hard.
Teamwork is a significant part of ‘Counter-Strike: Condition Zero’ and many of the secondary objectives require you to effectively work with your squad.
Huntington Beach is like ground zero for surfers.
We made ‘Pieces’ in Cleveland with zero connections to the film business. Absolutely zero.
I’m already the most fortunate girl in the world, so I have zero expectations for what the future will bring.
The people I look up to most are actresses such as Kate Winslet and Amy Schumer, who have never been size zero and are judged on their bodies of work, not their bodies.
We’ve got to understand that the ages of zero to three are the most formative years of a person’s life, the time they learn the concept of reward and punishment and develop a conscience, and that 50 percent of all learned human response is learned in the first year of life.
There’s nothing that can drive me from zero to crazy faster than a man who comes up to me and says, ‘You know, I don’t normally read books by women, but I really liked ‘Gone Girl.”
We all want to be special, to stand out; there’s nothing wrong with this. The irony is that every human being is special to start with, because we’re unique to start with. But we then go through some sort of boot camp from the age of zero to about 18 where we learn everything we can about how not to be unique.
I remember, once I was stressed, with an upcoming paper deadline. That little Microsoft Word clippy guy would show up in my face, jumping around and asking if I needed help. It had no understanding of my emotions and had zero empathy. That got me interested in this idea of tech being responsive to our emotions.
All of us start from zero. We take the right decision and become a hero.
You have 22 episodes to start from zero to hero; you can really take a nice, big, long arc. In a film, it’s tough to do that – you only have 90 minutes.
When you get to Hollywood, you have to start from zero, whatever you’ve done before.
I honestly think that kids should not exercise: they should keep fit through play. The most important age is zero to seven, both for the kid and the parent – for parents, because this is the time when your kid learns how to walk, talk and other behaviour.
