When American workers are losing their jobs to people in other countries, Washington cannot afford to ignore this disturbing trend any longer.

There is nothing so aggravating as a fresh boy who is too old to ignore and too young to kick.
Awards give you confidence apart from official recognition. They act as a dose of encouragement, as they are judged by experts. But, at the same time, you can’t ignore the audience’s response that matters the most.

From Snoop, I’ve learned quite a bit. I learned that sometimes I need to keep my mouth shut. It’s a long story, but definitely to sometimes keep my mouth shut. I also learned to always ignore the haters.

We’ve all been influenced by American naturalism, and to ignore that entirely would be impossible for me as someone who works primarily in film.
We live in a media saturated world. I’m sure artists of the past would have dealt with it in just the same way. If you’re in the business of communication and images, then if you ignore the media-sphere you’re just cutting off your own foot. It’s just daft.
The computer offers another kind of creativity. You cannot ignore the creativity that computer technology can bring. But you need to be able to move between those two different worlds.
What is the Obama Doctrine? It seems to be one of disengagement, to try to ignore the hot, religious, dry, poor countries from Algeria to Pakistan.

Videos of Antifa violence, some of them doctored, are regularly shared on conservative, pro-Trump and conspiracy theory-pushing websites, often with commentary that suggests the media purposefully ignores those events. These videos often do not often include wider context or numbers.
Come election time, black and white politicians put on their costumes of compassion and care, shake black hands, kiss black babies, sing ‘We Shall Overcome’ in black , and pray that we will ignore the reality of everyday suffering and the damage that is being done to our future in exchange for our votes.

The current approach that psychiatry takes almost ignores social worlds in which mental health problems arise and tries to become highly biomedical like other branches of medicine such as cardiology or oncology. But psychiatry has to be far more embedded in people’s personal and social worlds.
You’d better believe that Putin sees that in Syria, Obama draws a red line and ignores the red line.

As president, Governor Romney would handle the Syrian conflict much differently. A President Romney would not ignore a growing conflict in a dangerous region involving allies the way Obama has, especially when chemical weapons could possibly be used.
Men mostly ignore taking care of their skin. I think a weekly scrub and a face pack for every man is a must to get rid of all the pollution, dirt and grime.
Science trumps magical thinking: there was a reason the Incas called their mercury mine ‘la mina de los muertos,’ the mine of the dead. Building a life and a community upon principles that ignore such realities is doomed to fail.
I have come to understand that my hatred of the gym was based on fear and prejudice, a tribal resistance to science, to improvement. But to ignore my aging physicality and not try and become the strongest and fittest I can be is curmudgeonly at best and wilfully ignorant at worst.
The main actors on the world stage are the size of continents, be they nation states or voluntary groupings of nation states such as the E.U. Nostalgia can help us ignore these harsh realities for a while, but it will not make them go away.
Strong moral arguments exist for why we should often try to ignore stereotypes or override them. But we shouldn’t assume they represent some irrational quirk of the unconscious mind. In fact, they’re largely the consequence of the mind’s attempt to make a rational decision.

One should not tolerate anything wrong. One should raise his/her voice against the wrongdoings. Don’t ignore, just call out.
Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it.
When I played and got abused by another player, called a ‘black so and so,’ I always said ‘that’s out of order’ but I tried to ignore it. I’d be thinking: ‘You’re not going to bring me down to that level.’ But there were occasions when something was said and the next tackle went in a lot firmer.
When we think of the myth of the settling of the West, this is our creation myth. But because we think of it as mythology, not as real people interacting with other real people, we ignore the cost of human lives and blood.

My father died from a heart attack. He was the sort of person who wouldn’t complain. The symptoms are not heavy – a bit of chest pain, arm strain, or indigestion. People ignore those symptoms because they think it’s trivial. Don’t feel afraid to come forward.
