We wish nothing more, but we will accept nothing less. Masters in our own house we must be, but our house is the whole of Canada.
I feel less adrenaline in my body now, but more in my head. I tried to be at my best, and I succeeded.
I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinions of himself than on the opinions of others.
The more people know about you, the less they can project who you are supposed to be. It’s unfortunate that you really only get one shot at that.
Come on, come on! And there’ll be no turning back! You were only killing time and it can kill you right back. Come on, come on! It’s time to burn up the fuse. You got nothing to do and even less to lose.
The more one judges, the less one loves.
The less I behave like Whistler’s mother the night before, the more I look like her the morning after.

A man’s friendships are, like his will, invalidated by marriage – but they are also no less invalidated by the marriage of his friends.
I feel like my style’s always been influenced by ‘less is more.’ The coolest styles are kind of simple and classic, like a white T-shirt and jeans. Maybe you have a cool belt and cool shoes, but everything else you keep simple.
My idea of sexy is that less is more. The less you reveal the more people can wonder.
There is less pressure as a character actor. It generally means that you will be acting for all of your life, which is my intention. It is not my intention to just be a rich and famous person, that would be pretty boring.
I keep telling myself to calm down, to take less of an interest in things and not to get so excited, but I still care a lot about liberty, freedom of speech and expression, and fairness in journalism.
Two roads diverged in a wood and I – I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.
Thanks be to God. Since my leaving the drinking of wine, I do find myself much better, and do mind my business better, and do spend less money, and less time lost in idle company.
Our focus needs to be less on what our legacy’s going to be or how we can control each other and more how we can give to each other.
I haven’t reported my missing credit card to the police because whoever stole it is spending less than my wife.
Nothing is less predictable than the development of an active scientific field.
Britain is multicultural and it will become more multicultural, not less, and you have to think about who is on your team.
Reform is not pleasant, but grievous; no person can reform themselves without suffering and hard work, how much less a nation.
Personality is less a finished product than a transitive process. While it has some stable features, it is at the same time continually undergoing change.
Group discussion is very valuable; group drafting is less productive.
A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.
To prefer evil to good is not in human nature; and when a man is compelled to choose one of two evils, no one will choose the greater when he might have the less.
If the Philippines secure their independence after heroic and stubborn conflicts, they can rest assured that neither England, nor Germany, nor France, and still less Holland, will dare to take up what Spain has been unable to hold.

There is more sophistication and less sense in New York than anywhere else on the globe.
Honestly, I could care less about other people’s opinions about me.
Nothing seems at first sight less important than the outward form of human actions, yet there is nothing upon which men set more store: they grow used to everything except to living in a society which has not their own manners.
Richard Nixon is very much a self-made man in the six years prior to his emergence as a national figure. Between the moment he’s elected to Congress in 1946 and the moment he’s inaugurated as Vice President in 1953, he conducts nothing less than a kind of prodigy of American political self-advancement.
I always joke about letting the haters motivate you. Everybody has that in their life, people who doubt them or make them feel less than they are. It just takes faith and belief in yourself, and you’ve got to dig deep into that. That has to come from you – nobody’s going to give you that.
My view is that at a younger age your optimism is more and you have more imagination etc. You have less bias.
I’ve been more or less vegetarian for about 40 years. Health diet really helps. I do meditation every day, and either yoga or sport several times a week.
The more completely we focus our attention on our Creator and Lord, the less chance there is of our being distracted by creatures.
A good farmer is nothing more nor less than a handy man with a sense of humus.
We must give less money to these provinces, like my own province of Quebec, and give them the right incentive to develop their own natural resources and their economy.
It costs less to eat and live more healthfully. Walking, loving, meditating, and quitting smoking are free and require no special equipment.
I am much less autistic now, compared to when I was young. I remember some behaviors like picking carpet fuzz and watching spinning plates for hours. I didn’t want to be touched. I couldn’t shut out background noise. I didn’t talk until I was about 4 years old. I screamed. I hummed. But as I grew up, I improved.
The kids go to a Quaker school. Their father and I believe a lot in community, social responsibility, making sure you give to people less fortunate than you.
Growing up in a brand-new country, coming from the Philippines, was hard. I was treated differently and felt like people thought less of me because I was Asian.
Nature never said to me: Do not be poor; still less did she say: Be rich; her cry to me was always: Be independent.
America is full of readers of all different sorts who love books in many different ways, and I keep meeting them. And I think editors should look after them, and make less effort to please people who don’t actually like books.
Do not speak of your happiness to one less fortunate than yourself.
I think being a mum gives you extra qualities. I’m more feisty, fiercely protective and less selfish. The main trait I want to instill in my kids is kindness. I think it’s the most important thing. If you’re kind, you’ll go a long way.
The more I want to get something done, the less I call it work.
I hope all of you are going to fill out your census form when it comes in the mail next month. If you don’t return the form the area you live in might get less government money and you wouldn’t want that to happen, would you.
Part of the popularity with Louis Farrakhan has less to do with the content of his message and more to do with the form that he portrays himself – as being a free black person who speaks what is on his mind with boldness and fearlessness. Who is willing to pay the consequences.
Augmented reality will change the world more than a lot of other technologies. Traveling around to meet people will be much less important when you can stand in a room and chat with a virtual representation of a person that’s so close to reality – it’ll be a whole new level.
Wishful thinking won’t make the Palestinians an Israeli peace partner, no matter how much President Barack Obama pressures Israel to make concessions; caustically mocking Putin’s worldview won’t make it any less real or mitigate the Russian threat.
We have traded a dictator for a chaos that has left America less secure.
I am clearly more popular than Reagan. I am in my third term. Where’s Reagan? Gone after two! Defeated by George Bush and Michael Dukakis no less.
In the white community, the path to a more perfect union means acknowledging that what ails the African-American community does not just exist in the minds of black people; that the legacy of discrimination – and current incidents of discrimination, while less overt than in the past – are real and must be addressed.
The more often we see the things around us – even the beautiful and wonderful things – the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds – even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.
We can never be afraid to stand up for what is right, no matter what others may say. And sometimes, if that means taking a lonely road, if what we are standing for is true, then perhaps moonlight or sunshine will light our way and make it less lonely.
We need to lower the cost of healthcare and prescription drugs instead of making it easier for insurance companies to charge more for less inclusive coverage.
Your ups and downs in sports, I think they are as normal as daily life: One day you wake up and feel great, the next day you wake up and feel maybe less great.
