The fact we don’t have a lunar base has nothing to do with the technology. It has to do with public commitment and societal support.

Occupy Wall Street was a disorganized movement without a clear focus and power base – essential in any successful revolution – but the message was clear: the divisions between those who are fortunate enough to enjoy city living as opposed to those who find it unbearable are too wide.
A diverse customer base helps insulate you; a few large accounts can leave you vulnerable to their whims.

Many of the people I know and that you know are very complex human beings, and it’s not all about race. Everything isn’t a question of race. Everything isn’t a question of economics at the very base level.
I wouldn’t eat a 1,000-calorie bowl of spaghetti for dinner, but I’ve always loved pasta and think it’s a good addition to any meal and a great base for pretty much any vegetable. It’s also great when I have a nervous stomach before race day.
What a contrast, Trump is feisty but flexible. Obama, cool but rigid. But he had no reason to bend. The media already bought into his shtick. His giddy fan base ate up every white-coated lie.
I might have a great game hitting, but if I’m not having a great game fielding, if I feel like I let a guy get an extra base that I could have stopped, that’s something I’ve got to do better, got to get better at.
When I signed up for Google Plus, it recommended 500 people for me to invite. You know, and once I invited those 500 people I got another 500 people. So it has a huge install base that it can start from.

I have the speed. People said, ‘Just hit the ball on the ground, slap the ball, just get on base.’ But I wanted to be able to hit home runs. I wanted to be able to bunt, steal bases, play defense.
I’ve seen a lot of people in my life base their self-worth on what job they book or don’t book, what car they drive, or whether they can afford a house deposit or not.
It doesn’t matter what the scoreboard says. I’m always having fun, talking to other guys. They even come to first base and ask me about hitting. I try to help them out as much as I can in the 30 seconds before the pitcher throws the next pitch. That’s me. I don’t think I will ever change that.
Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood.
Republican politics have been off-kilter for several years now because a large segment of the conservative base does not look back fondly on the Bush presidency.
One of the reasons we don’t have our deficit under control is because Republicans are wusses and won’t tell their base a simple fact that everyone knows. We can’t eliminate the deficit without raising some revenue… They’re wusses.
Less base the fear of death than fear of life.
I let previous instances creep up in my thought process sometimes. I think that’s where things go awry, and that’s where the walks come in. I’m not giving up many hits, just putting them on base for free.
My career choices aren’t based on the popularity of my character; I have never intended to capitalise on my fan base.

My fan base is really, really young. They’re the youngest demographic that you can track on YouTube: 13- to 17-year-old females. But the fan mail that I get in my P.O. box, they’re all from moms and from kids who are two years old, three years old, four years old.
The fleet sailed to its war base in the North Sea, headed not so much for some rendezvous with glory as for rendezvous with discretion.
I focus on what I can do in this game. I don’t have speed. I’m not a guy who can have a stolen base. I wish I could, but I can’t.
What people ask for has nothing to do with the value of a property. You might see a listing for $300,000 and think you should make a $250,000 bid. But hyper-focus on what the house is worth. You should know what the house is worth by looking at comparable properties. Base your bid on that.
I got a solid fan base and they love me and I love them. They know I’ma give them what they want to hear.

Life with a scientist who is often changing jobs and is frequently away at meetings and on lecture tours is not easy. Without a secure home base, I could not have made much progress.
These ‘Supernatural’ conventions are such a great time. The fan base is like none other, and I’m sure I’ll never experience a fan base that support is the same with – their kind of unbridled decency towards the actors makes me not have to worry about going into the crowd.
It seemed that rebellion must have an unassailable base, something guarded not merely from attack, but from the fear of it: such a base as we had in the Red Sea Parts, the desert, or in the minds of the men we converted to our creed.
A good fan base has developed around the Hurricanes, and I see the opportunity for continued growth for this franchise in the future.

A military base in a country like Afghanistan is also a web of relationships, a hub for the local economy, and a key player in the political ecosystem.

My workout was running down fly balls, stealing a base, or running for my life on the football field.
I have serious challenges with Donald Trump and his messaging that is going to make it more difficult for us to bring in minorities, Hispanics, into the party and into our voting base in November. I would be concerned about him carrying the banner for the Republican Party.

Football is my base; that’s where I learned to be tough. I was a strong safety, and that’s what I do: I hit people. The mentality is football, the wrestling is precision.
