The less the ISIS ‘caliphate’ exists as a physical entity, the less the group can claim it is the ‘Islamic State’ that it purports to be.
The major novelty of my theory was its claim that the most rapid evolutionary change does not occur in widespread, populous species, as claimed by Most geneticists, but in small founder populations.
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men’s hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
I claim Dickens as a mentor. He’s my teacher. He’s one of my driving forces.
We claim Islam as Deen or a complete way of life.
None of us can claim to be fair and square in love – and I’m definitely not a hypocrite! Humans are built to evolve with time. It depends on the nature of the relationship you share with a person. It is there today, tomorrow it may be gone; c’est la vie.
I’ve wanted to put myself in that position to be the best wide receiver in the NFL, and I definitely think I’m putting my foot forward to make that claim.
The young people I know judge leaders by their deeds and abhor hypocrisy. Inconsistency and point-scoring do not win respect. It’s not easy to be engaged in political debate when it is reduced to performers trying to outdo each other. Actions from leaders must mirror the values they claim to espouse.
Some even claim that I’m a terror, a dictator and they’re right.
Conservatives claim they are ‘one nation’ Tories when they have actually been a government for the 1% who have undermined our economic interests through their greed.
Personally, I don’t claim to be a great director. My films are made for children, not intellectuals.
Is there a higher energy? I would say yes, even if the energy is collective. Even if it’s kind of Jungian, or the whole thing is collective consciousness, that may be God as far as I’m concerned. So is there an energy that’s higher than mine? Yes. But would I claim it as God? I would say no.
I could not claim them because I was not supposed to be flying in combat.
In mid-20th-century America, it could be argued that the novelist still had the most claim of anyone to omniscience. Whatever he/she couldn’t prove, he/she could gesture at.

There’s a lot of other rappers that aren’t what they claim to be, and they get a pass because they’re black.
Only one country and one system is unable to recognize our accomplishments: Russia. They make the lying claim that our road construction program is only on paper.

It is perfectly clear, in the first place, that the constitution of the United States did not, of itself, create or establish slavery as a new institution; or even give any authority to the state governments to establish it as a new institution. The greatest sticklers for slavery do not claim this.
The New Right, in many cases, is doing nothing less than placing a heretical claim on Christian faith that distorts, confuses, and destroys the opportunity for a biblical understanding of Jesus Christ and of his gospel for millions of people.

Waiter trainers claim that an investment in education pays off very quickly for restaurants.
It is, I claim, nonsense to say that it does not matter which individual man acted as the nucleus for the change. It is precisely this that makes history unpredictable into the future.
When you’re normally networking, it’s with men. And they claim they want to help you and work with you, but when it comes down to it, they want to go on dates.
Every spring, this country will be reminded of the Lady from Texas. As trees bloom and flowers carpet our nation’s capital, Lady Bird Johnson will be remembered. Only Lady Bird Johnson could, with her vision of a beautiful America, lay claim to spring as her memorial.
I don’t claim to be a journalist. I hold myself to higher standards of transparency and disclosure.
International Women’s Day, if it is to claim any kind of political relevance, has to reject ladies’ Christmas consumerism and lowest-common-denominator universalism. Look beyond the pink beer and pyjamas; as feminists we need to be concerned with payslips and passports.
The first neurologist I saw just thought I was partying too much, and he stuck by that claim even after my family insisted that he was wrong.
If a person’s self-worth derives from being the only woman in the field, how much affection can she feel toward another woman who might challenge that claim to fame?
There is no truth to the claim people who play under Shoaib bhai don’t want to play under me.
Andrew Jackson was the first president to claim that the desires of the public overrode Congress’s constitutional prerogatives. Virtually every president since Jackson has claimed the mantle, even while lacking two ingredients of an electoral mandate: a landslide victory and a specific agenda.
For the Conservative Party to become the mouthpiece of energy monopolists is not only a political error; it is fundamentally at variance with the liberal economics they claim to espouse.
I am a movie buff – I even claim I am a Hindi film encyclopedia post 1988(only because that was the year I was born in… haha).
My only claim is that not all talented people should go to college and not all talented people should do the exact same thing.
There’s a single with D.J. Class and Fatman Scoop – I’m not going to claim to be a singer, but my voice is in it and the song is technically about me.
To the darkness and the night, the spirits seem to have a natural claim – it is their realm; the boldest of us have sometimes felt an unaccountable creeping in the thick darkness.
It’s fashionable to think that the conservative parties in America are the science deniers. You certainly wouldn’t have trouble supporting that claim. But liberals are not exempt.
That’s definitely something I’ve experienced my whole life – people thinking one thing and then discovering that I’m not, hopefully. So I relate to having to fight that and claim my own identity, when people are trying to throw different ones at me.
I’m not certain that the BBC can claim to be making a wide enough range of distinctive programmes to make the case convincingly.

If our era is the next Industrial Revolution, as many claim, AI is surely one of its driving forces.
First of all, I can’t really claim to be a great chef.
I don’t claim to be a particularly good father. I’m flawed, let’s say. I’ve certainly been affected by the experience of having kids… trying to be a father, at least. It’s an amazing process. It’s like songwriting: it’s a complete mystery to me. I don’t understand it – but I’ve certainly written about it.
Being called ugly and fat and disgusting to look at from the time I could barely understand what the words meant has scarred me so deep inside that I have learned to hunt, stalk, claim, own and defend my own loveliness.
When you’re coming off a flight, skip the restroom by the gates and head to the one in baggage claim, which is always cleaner – and there’s never a line.
I will not claim I will solve all the world’s problems by myself. If I did, I’d have to run as a Republican or a Democrat.
My claim has always been that defeatism pervaded the conservative parties in the 1930s and that it was the defining characteristic of Menzies and his first period as prime minister.
PBMs claim they help patients by negotiating lower prices from drug manufacturers. But the fact is PBMs rarely, if ever, pass those savings on to patients.
I think whenever I’ve thought something might go well, it hasn’t, and when I’ve thought, ‘Oh yeah, just chuck it out there,’ that’s when it kicks off, so now, I don’t claim to understand anything.
I can’t claim I’m truly a man’s man, I’m just as much of a dork and a crybaby sometimes as anybody else.
The American claim that the bombing of North Vietnam was directed against military targets does not withstand direct investigation.
You can ask any set decorator on any set where I’ve had to be in an office, I always kind of claim it – I put Post-its everywhere, and I kind of make it look lived-in.
I don’t claim to be an expert on love. I’m just a woman who has experienced a lot of things, and I want to share and hopefully my sharing will help make your situation better, because that’s the goal.
If no other knowledge deserves to be called useful but that which helps to enlarge our possessions or to raise our station in society, then Mythology has no claim to the appellation.
