I suppose that Ive got to point out that ‘Nomad Chef’ is not about survival in the wild. It is about celebrating remote communities and their food with them.
When I found myself in the U.S., and the war was at full swing in Bosnia, I read for survival – it was a means of thought resuscitation.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
Independence is not a whim or an ambition. It is the necessary condition of our survival as an ethnic group.
There’s a theory that says that life is based on a competition and the struggle and the fight for survival, and it’s interesting because when you look at the fractal character of evolution, it’s totally different. It’s based on cooperation among the elements in the geometry and not competition.
Luck is a very thin wire between survival and disaster, and not many people can keep their balance on it.
All species capable of grasping this fact manage better in the struggle for existence than those which rely upon their own strength alone: the wolf, which hunts in a pack, has a greater chance of survival than the lion, which hunts alone.
For those who want to pick up old fights, we’re game, but what a waste of time. Why not join hands instead? Join hands in the biggest challenge of all, where we all win, or we all lose: the battle for the survival and progress of our one and only country.
The pressure of survival in the big city will make you lose sight of your dream… Hang in there.
It’s time for the aesthetics of upwardly mobile feminist respectability to make room for the aesthetics of survival, particularly trans survival.
If my survival caused another to perish, then death would be sweeter and more beloved.
To understand why dictators fall, it helps to recognise factors that produce a perfect anti-dictatorial storm. Barring missteps such as those that led to Gaddafi’s undoing, a dictator’s survival can be at risk because of newness in office, poor health, or old age combined with economic trouble.
The year 2100 will see eugenics universally established. In past ages, the law governing the survival of the fittest roughly weeded out the less desirable strains. Then man’s new sense of pity began to interfere with the ruthless workings of nature. As a result, we continue to keep alive and to breed the unfit.
The survival of artistic modes in which we recognize ourselves, identify ourselves and place ourselves will survive as long as humanity survives.
In the game of life, less diversity means fewer options for change. Wild or domesticated, panda or pea, adaptation is the requirement for survival.
I don’t think it’s a Western thing to really talk about intrinsic motivation and the drive for autonomy, mastery and purpose. You have to not be struggling for survival. For people who don’t know where their next meal is coming, notions of finding inner motivation are comical.
Humor is one of the best ingredients of survival.
Absolutely the United States should lead in space, for the survival of the United States. It’s inspiring for the next generation. If we lose leadership, then we’ll be using Chinese capability to inspire Americans.
I do a lot of lectures on survival. I always say you can’t change what happened, so have a little wallow, feel very sorry for yourself, and then get up and move forward. You can’t change what happened.
It’s not accidental that products get worse over time; it’s because companies stop paying attention to them. They stop caring as much about maintaining the same quality they did when they were just trying to fight for survival and no one would pay attention unless they had the best technology.
The left’s mission isn’t simply to grant every citizen the basic means of survival, but comfort and prosperity, too, through collective means. Yet the existence of billionaires is irreconcilable with this emancipatory project.
Her mother was a Christian Scientist who didn’t believe in calling doctors. So when my mother caught whooping cough as a baby, stopped breathing and turned blue, her mother revived her by spanking her on the bottom. She saw life itself as a gift and saw her own survival as precious and a matter of chance.
Happiness is just another of the tricks that our genetic system plays on us to carry out its only role, which is the survival of the species.
Babies act out when they’re hungry, cold, tired. They do this for survival.
If you’ve made enough money where you’re not worried about the rent or survival, you start asking yourself why you’re on this planet. Your point is to do the most good you can before you die – well, I could do more good if I didn’t die.
The United States – aspiring India’s favourite country – had to learn the hard way that you ignore the world outside your door at great cost to your own survival.
If anything on the car is going to blow up or fall off, you usually see it happen in the 600. But it’s also survival for the drivers because it’s such a long race and it’s usually hot at Charlotte. It’s hard for drivers to feel good for the whole 400 laps.
If something happens and you’re behind, and you get hit in the mouth early like that, you have two options: You can either pack it in mentally and internally and go into survival mode and quit, or you’re going to get up and go to work.

Resilience is all about being able to overcome the unexpected. Sustainability is about survival. The goal of resilience is to thrive.
Natural selection shaped the human brain to be drawn toward aspects of nature that enhance our survival and reproduction, like verdant landscapes and docile creatures. There is no payoff to getting the warm fuzzies in the presence of rats, snakes, mosquitoes, cockroaches, herpes simplex and the rabies virus.
We don’t even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward. In times of tragedy, of war, of necessity, people do amazing things. The human capacity for survival and renewal is awesome.
I have a hot memory, but I know I’ve forgotten many things, too, just squashed things in favor of survival.
Success is survival.
Most of my interests in terms of writing are dark, so it’s discordant how much I try to lock into the vibe of wherever I’m at. Inhabiting the life of the imagination is the nature of survival strategy – you build yourself little worlds to enjoy.
Survival is something I’ve always managed. To be fair, my parents did the first 16 years without any input from me. I ploughed through many a KitKat, but it was their insistence on vegetables and coats that kept me alive.
I’m not being presumptuous, I hope, when I say that ‘The Crown’ is little bit like ‘The Godfather.’ It is essentially about a family in power and survival.

Nature is indifferent to the survival of the human species, including Americans.
The only justification for repressive institutions is material and cultural deficit. But such institutions, at certain stages of history, perpetuate and produce such a deficit, and even threaten human survival.
The passenger pigeon, the golden toad, the Caspian tiger: they are all gone, and other species hang by a thread. Our actions are not merely driving other species to extinction: we threaten our own survival, too, by destabilising ecosystems and destroying biodiversity.
I fought for my survival since infancy.
Survival, in the cool economics of biology, means simply the persistence of one’s own genes in the generations to follow.
I’ve never had very high regard for therapists. I owe my health, my mental survival, to my friends and loved ones.
Well I think on a simple ecological level that the diversity of this planet is important for our survival, that all of our different cultures, people are important to the health of the whole the same way that a species of animal should be saved and at a simple ecology level.
For many women, the on-time payments of domestic support obligations are essential to economic survival.
My great-grandfather, Sam Aykroyd, was a dentist in Kingston, Ontario, and he was also an Edwardian spiritualist researcher who was very interested in what was going on in the invisible world, the survival of the consciousness, precipitated paintings, mediumship, and trans-channeling.
I have an instinct for survival, for self-preservation.
Surviving is not something you need to learn. You don’t need to learn survival skills; you have them already. That’s why we’re here, all of us, because it’s a game of survival anyway.
The 600 is survival. It’s NASCAR’s longest race.
The economic and social decline of Zimbabwe is shocking and appalling. Life there is unrecognisable from that of the recent past. Each day is a struggle for basic survival.
My form of therapy and survival has been exercise.
When I read about how 200 people died on a polar expedition, I wonder why they didn’t get to know the Inuit people who were around and presumably know something about surviving in the Arctic after living there for thousands of years. Talking to people is a survival mechanism.
