Hillary Clinton has made it clear over and over again that we are at our best when we lift people up; we should be leaving no one behind. That is not always her home base, but it’s always part of what she says.
It’s actually kind of cool that women have taken to me. Because now I have a whole different demographic when it comes to the audiences. I have women who come out and support my movies, and that is a huge demographic for me, which is great because some actors don’t have a female base at all.
In any grass-roots campaign, building an ongoing base of support is as important as winning the ultimate goal.
You build a fan base over time, and they will accept you as long as it’s good. Nothing matters as long as something’s good. If it’s bad, nobody will see it.

It was a sunny place with beaches and a seafront, so they never went back to England and preferred to stay in Colombia.
Every actor has to deal with what’s on his plate, and I try to deal with doing the best work possible with the most challenging scripts. I don’t base it on whether it’s a feature film or a TV-movie or cable.

The common base of all the Semitic creeds, winners or losers, was the ever present idea of world-worthlessness. Their profound reaction from matter led them to preach bareness, renunciation, poverty; and the atmosphere of this invention stifled the minds of the desert pitilessly.
It takes a long time for a country to build a strong base in science, but only a short time to destroy it. Germany was a sad example.

There is no business in the world – I don’t care what it is, whether it’s I.T. or manufacturing – that does not have what I may refer to as a blended resource base. You have high-end work. You have engineering work. You have some local knowledge you require. Then, you have some very low-cost work to be done.
I think extremists within the base may very well move the Democratic party away from its pro-Israel position.
I would like to involve myself in some black music. I would like to do some blues and some gospel music. I want to try stuff from other genres and try to widen my musical base.

I base most of my fashion taste on what doesn’t itch.
All the world lies warm in one heart, yet the Sierra seems to get more light than other mountains.

Facebook’s data trove is enviable, and its moves into nearly every aspect of our lives – from payment to media, will create even more of it.

I wish every American had an opportunity to sit down, to go to a base, to meet with families, to meet with service members, to sit down with our veterans – because we would think differently about our challenges as individuals.

Our customer base is not necessarily a leader, an early adopter.

I’ve just got to stay patient, take my walks when I can, hunt the mistakes, and get on base.

I don’t think the show would be funny to you if you didn’t already have a base of information.

Everything is an open book. I don’t speak on other people’s hardship, but if it happened in my life or something that has been an experience on my particular journey, I’m going to talk about it. That’s what my fan base appreciates the most. I’m universal. You can relate to the things I say or that I go through.
I think a lot of the time having someone who you, not base yourself on, but can see yourself being after a few years, you can get quite blinded by that, in the same way love can be.

There should be an international lunar base. That is certainly doable.

Pantelion and Televisa can reach my core fan base better than anyone, and with the distribution expertise and brand recognition of Lionsgate, I know we can build on the crossover audience that we began to reach with ‘Instructions.’

I decided to take my foot off the pedal with all the detail. I’m sure after ‘Animalia’ and ‘The Eleventh Hour,’ readers thought that’s what to expect from Graeme Base. With ‘The Sign of the Seahorse,’ I took a step away from the puzzle-book genre – that was more of an adventure story.
Since hydrogen is a constituent of most of our electrolytic solvents, the definition of an acid or base as a substance which gives up or takes up hydrogen ion would be more general than the one we used before, but it would not be universal.
I often draw from people in my own experience to base a character on, going back to my days with Mike Leigh.
I’m the CEO of A$AP Worldwide. But as you can see, when I’m with them, everybody’s equal. We don’t really base our love off of finances or who’s superior by financial status. We’re all equal. When I’m with them, I’m letting them shine ’cause it’s just like how it used to be. They still there. I’m just chilling out front.
Dashi remains unfamiliar to most French and American cooks, who tend to reach for a bouillon cube to do many of the same things. But dashi is worth preparing and using the way the Japanese do: for poaching fish, as a soup base, and in simmered dishes.

I find the production in ‘A&E’ very beautiful, it reminds me of Ace Of Base, the way the bass has that space and the reggae.

Who cares if you bunt for a base hit?
I let the players use their abilities and what they’re capable of doing. If they’re capable of stealing bases, I’m going to give them the green light. I’m going to teach them to pick their spots and to get a base when they can get a base.
What interested me in doing ‘Dragonball’ was that it’s a huge comic book series that has built a great fan base, and it’s a great action movie!

The origin of all revolutions and corruption, and the spur and source of all base morals are just two sayings: The First Saying: ‘So long as I’m full, what is it to me if others die of hunger?’ The Second Saying: ‘You suffer hardship so that I can live in ease; you work so that I can eat.’
No country is ever successful in the long term… without a really strong and vibrant manufacturing base.

Something I notice speaking to writers from south of Hadrian’s Wall is that the culture is different. At base, I think Scotland values its creative industries differently from England.
The bottom line is, I hear my donors, I hear our base out there, I hear the leadership. And we’re taking steps to make sure that we’re even more – how shall we say it – fiscally conservative in our spending and certainly making sure the dollars are there when it’s time to run our campaigns.
I was playing baseball, and I tripped over first base – I’m very clumsy – and I fell and broke my wrist. That was pretty painful.

I loved the idea of touching base with an audience.
