Let me be clear: Those who seek to undermine our democratic institutions, indiscriminately destroy our businesses and attack our law enforcement officers and fellow citizens are a threat to the homeland.
Decisions taken by the most democratic institutions in the world are very often wrong.
Development has to start from the base; the kids need to be playing, and the institutions have to come forward. There needs to be focus on grassroots.
The truth is, the sexist behaviour that really holds women in games back doesn’t come from the moustache-twirling cartoon villains of Gamergate. It’s the sexist hiring practices of our journalistic institutions. It’s the consistently over-sexualised designs we see.
I recognized that teaching and research institutions vitally depend on the involvement of active scientists also in management functions.
Business is one of the most powerful institutions on Earth for creating wealth and opportunity and helping to lift people out of poverty. When you think about it that way, then business is not separate from development policy.
Our history tells us that public institutions evolve through a process of bargaining between the state and groups in society.
We have been using foreign affairs ministries to address security issues, but this practice is outdated. It’s time to assign the handling of regional security to national organizations and expert institutions.
But Australia faces additional regional and global challenges also crucial to our nation’s future – climate change, questions of energy and food security, the rise of China and the rise of India. And we need a strong system of global and regional relationships and institutions to underpin stability.
I believe in marriage. I believe marriage is a really important institution, it’s one of the most important institutions we have.
Tribalism, after all, is part of our evolutionary DNA.

When you’re facing an investor or the institutions or a distributor, it’s you yourself with your own ideas and your own project.

Universities are basically socialist institutions.
When the federal government invests in education, it should support quality education and career readiness rather than institutions that make empty promises.
Many small businesses rely on small financial institutions, like credit unions and community banks, to meet their capital requirements. Without them, these small businesses would have to close their doors.
According to me when former governors join the political mainstream, the whole cause propagated for autonomy of the institutions, itself gets impacted. When they dwell into statements which are politically loaded, rather than during their tenure as a governor, it is far easier to analyse those statements.
We also must pull from our highest ideals of justice and protect against those ills that destabilized our economy – like predatory lending, over-leveraged financial institutions and the unchecked avarice of the past that trumped fairness and common sense. Our platform calls for significant cuts in federal spending.
In the 21st century, the countries that thrive will be the ones where citizens know their voices will be heard because the institutions are transparent.
In government institutions and in teaching, you need to inspire confidence. To achieve credibility, you have to very clearly explain what you are doing and why. The same principles apply to businesses.

In vain, without the Bible, we increase penal laws and draw entrenchments around our institutions.
It’s not a panacea: there are problems in the world that technology can’t fix. You can’t fix water shortages. You can’t storm a Ministry of the Interior with a cell phone. You can’t magically create leaders and institutions overnight. You can’t eat it. You can’t shield a bullet.
Irrespective of our foreign policies, for decades, other nations and peoples could see, in the United States, a strong democracy that could maintain social cohesion, welcome immigrants of all backgrounds, and count on stable institutions.
Against the State, against the Church, against the silence of the medical profession, against the whole machinery of dead institutions of the past, the woman of today arises.
Ideology that believes government is bad, and that public institutions and places are not valuable, is as destructive as corporate greed.

A lot of those old, 19th-century sanitariums, mental institutions, there are a number of them left here, old prisons, things like that, Eastern State Penitentiary… They’re really, really spooky.
Artists and art institutions have to learn how to play hardball. A democratic society needs a democratic art and we have a right to demand it.
For many Americans, 2016 will be remembered as a terrible year. It was a year in which the lack of faith in our institutions was laid bare.
The world is not going to fall as long as there is confidence in governments and in banking institutions and the financial system.
Unless public officials are wealthy and fund their own campaigns, the only place they can turn to is lobbyists and institutions like labor unions and corporations.

Misogyny – and racism – are ‘hidden in plain sight,’ and the burden of eliminating them should fall on the institutions, not the victims.
It’s crucial we make the case for institutions like Nato and the E.U. as foundations for the peace and prosperity we have enjoyed for decades – and which too many people appear to take for granted.
To realize the incredible potential of connected cars and autonomous driving, we must continue to forge innovative global partnerships that engage everyone from automakers and Internet of Things players to government and educational institutions.
One of the things I believe strongly in is developing institutions – legal, press, bureaucracies, academies – that are rooted in the pursuit of impartial truth. That aren’t simply just bent to partisan ends or are corrupted for the powerful or for other ulterior motives.
I’ve never felt that my job was difficult because I’m a woman. It’s a difficult job regardless, and it’s even more difficult in Lebanon because there’s no film industry. There’s no structure, funding, or institutions for filmmakers.
I see my future with my family, with my grandsons and daughters, and I want to look after some welfare institutions I had set up at different places in the country with the help of expatriate Pakistanis.
Eyes is the attempt to tell the story of the Civil Rights movement and to create an emotional, intellectual constituency. But what do you do after that? The black community doesn’t have institutions that pick up such moments and preserve them.
There’s a lot of books out there about how you lead change in business, but I’ve certainly not seen any… on how you do that in public institutions.
Too often, the very institutions that are supposed to protect and serve our community have instead failed people of color, specifically our black community.
