The prominence given to our nation as a rainbow country

The prominence given to our nation as a rainbow country has its genesis and credence in our ‘Calaloo culture’ of which our East Indian brothers and sisters have played a principal part.
Anthony Carmona
I really wanted the first record to be different from what I’d done with Genesis, so we were trying to do things in different styles.
Peter Gabriel
There is a strong tendency in explanatory prose to invoke quantities of tension, energy, and whatnot to explain the genesis of pattern. I believe that all such explanations are inappropriate or wrong.
Gregory Bateson
The Bible is pregnant with politics. You cannot read the Bible from Genesis through Revelation and go through too many chapters that are not involving politics.
Tony Evans
The genesis of Public Interest Litigation in listening to the voice of the voiceless and giving access to the poor, the marginalised, and the weak is a unique experiment to be lauded.
Kapil Sibal
The story of Noah, like other stories in the first 11 chapters of Genesis, are archetypal. Noah’s story tells us that human beings have an inherent tendency towards violence both towards their fellow human beings and towards the creation itself. The story tells us that this violence grieves God.
Adam Hamilton
I grew up listening to classic rock – the Kinks, Genesis, The Who, Pink Floyd.
Ted Cruz
The genesis of a poem for me is usually a cluster of words. The only good metaphor I can think of is a scientific one: dipping a thread into a supersaturated solution to induce crystal formation. I don’t think I solve problems in my poetry; I think I uncover the problems.
Margaret Atwood
In Genesis 6:3, it says man can live to be 120, but there is no scientific basis for it.
S. Jay Olshansky
You know, the Bible is so clear. Go to Genesis chapter nine and you will find the death penalty clearly stated in Genesis chapter nine… God ordains the death penalty!
Rafael Cruz
The genesis of Donald Trump’s relationship with Paul Manafort begins with Roy Cohn. That Roy Cohn: Joe McCarthy’s heavy-lidded henchman, lawyer to the Genovese family. During the ’70s, Trump and his father hired Cohn as their lawyer to defend the family against a housing discrimination suit.
Franklin Foer
I always look for genuineness. If I feel I can connect with the audience, I will try to develop it. For example, the genesis of ‘Kannathil Muthamittal’ was an article published in a magazine.
Mani Ratnam
I grew up with video games. My generation kind of grew up with the Nintendo and the Sega Genesis. Then, I had a Dreamcast and, finally, the PlayStation. So yeah, I’ve always been a big gamer.
CC Sabathia
Everyone I talk to has a Genesis story to tell.
Mike Rutherford
Everything is not black-and-white. I’m really interested in the gray area – not justifying it, not glorifying it, not condoning it, but at least having people see there’s a genesis for every event in our lives. There’s some divine order to it, whether it’s ugly or beautiful.
Isaiah Washington
I’ve been playing hockey games since the Sega Genesis way back when.
Joe Thornton
The earliest stories in Genesis were not written to tell primeval history. They were written to tell readers about themselves and about God.
Adam Hamilton
When I left Genesis, I just wanted to be out of the music business. I felt like I was just in the machinery. We knew what we were going to be doing in 18 months or two years ahead. I just did not enjoy that.
Peter Gabriel
Passion is the genesis of genius.
Tony Robbins
There’s a slippery slope in regard to authority. If you say that the history in Genesis is not true, then you can just take man’s ideas as true. When you go outside of Scripture, why shouldn’t you just reinterpret what marriage means? So our emphasis is on the slippery slope regarding authority.
Ken Ham
While I began writing ‘Rules of Civility’ in 2006, the genesis of the book dates back to the early 1990s, when I happened upon a copy of ‘Many Are Called,’ the collection of portraits that Walker Evans took on the New York City subways in the late 1930s with a hidden camera.
Amor Towles
Bjork for sure. Definitely, I would like to do like something with Tommy Genesis, too. There’s a lot of people actually.
JPEGMAFIA
I was very nervous interviewing Genesis on Radio 2. I felt out of my depth and somebody tweeted afterwards: Sara Cox interviewing Genesis – what a waste. I was crushed, because I kind of knew it was true.
Sara Cox
When we were making games in the early ’90s for the Super Nintendo and the Sega Genesis, popular games didn’t have any real story.
Michael Morhaime
My grandmother was the genesis of my connection and passion to food.
Lidia Bastianich
Genesis fans are a religious group!
Phil Collins
My feminism is what came squarely up against my faith. There’s a lot of ecstatic post-patriarchal Christians who have stuff they do with that. But at that point, you’re doing Christianity with a double-superscript. The Bible, and especially the book of Genesis, is pretty unapologetically patriarchal.
John Darnielle
The genesis of the Thinking Talent app came from wanting to create a way to scale self-discovery with a framework that we, personally, inside of the company, have used really successfully.
Caroline Ghosn
The things that converge in the writing of a play come from a complex of motives, a genesis shrouded in a certain kind of mystery.
Athol Fugard
Being closer to the genesis of this whole period, it captured the importance of the concept of making contact and accurately depicted the paranoia of the time. It’s an excellent film.
Dwight Schultz
Personally, I have had sometimes moments where I thought my idea behind the idea of a collection – the concept maybe – something that we don’t see at the end on the catwalk, I think the way it was, the genesis in my mind, was probably artistic, an artistic approach.
Olivier Theyskens
Oklahoma City, Katrina... those happened to other unfor

Oklahoma City, Katrina… those happened to other unfortunate people. But 9/11, that happened to us all. And that was pretty much the genesis of ‘Reign Over Me.’
Mike Binder
‘Paranormal Activity’ was the first of our independently made/studio-released films. It was also the ultimate low-budget high-concept movie, which is what we are always looking for. ‘Paranormal Activity’ was the genesis of our model, of which I am so proud.
Jason Blum
If we do a little bit of insight into history, how many times have there been people doing hate discourse, blaming everything on a certain group of people. That really is the genesis of genocide, where it kind of sparks.
Gael Garcia Bernal
In Genesis, it says that it is not good for a man to be alone; but sometimes it is a great relief.
John Barrymore
Genesis 9 is where the animals went wild, and God gave them wildness. After the flood, that’s when he made animals wild. Up until that time, everybody was vegetarian.
Phil Robertson
All the great crimes of history, lest we forget, have their genesis in the moral wilderness of their times.
Eskinder Nega
Of course, the genesis of a good portion of the gridlock in Congress does not reside in Congress itself. Ultimate reform will require each of us, as voters and Americans, to take a long look in the mirror, because in many ways, our representatives in Washington reflect the people who have sent them there.
Evan Bayh
My taste comes from when I was 12 years old and saw Genesis or Laurie Anderson or some performance artist who had put paint on himself. I’ve seen a lot of theater, but that’s not what woke up my taste to become a director; nontheatrical things were much more theatrical than the theater I was seeing.
Robert Lepage
When I went to high school in Australia, I was exposed to textbooks that outlined evolutionary ideas – such as ape-like creatures turning into people. I recognized the conflict between evolutionary ideas and a literal reading of the book of Genesis.
Ken Ham
