Number one I think we should impose a fee or a tax on the transportation of trash per mile.
I had very good support from Democrats and Republicans all throughout my administration. I had a very high batting average. We added more jobs per year in my four years than any other president since the Second World War.
Eighty per cent of my output is ‘Mallory clowns on the Western canon,’ and I’m happy to be that person.
Eighty-five per cent of the time, people want to talk about ‘True Romance.’ That’s the film I’ve made that really seems to have stuck with people.
The RNC, per our bylaws, cannot engage in primaries. That is not our role. We actually have a rule that prohibits us from picking a candidate in the primaries.
While I may not agree with all of President Obama’s energy policies, I strongly supported his successful effort to double fuel economy standards for cars and trucks to 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025.
Setting an immigration target reduced to the tens of thousands is one thing when unemployment is running at 8 per cent. Refusing to review it when the country nears full employment and sectors are reporting skills shortages is quite another.
Stop ignoring disabled people, we make up 22 per cent of the population. We’re here and we’re worth listening to.
I don’t even know if hip-hop is music anymore. It’s definitely rhythm. It’s definitely tempo. It’s definitely beats per minute. But it’s product. And television is product placement for the most part. It’s not passion.
Americans spend 3 billion hours per year filling out tax forms and keeping tax records.
Britain, today, educates 4.8 million primary school children in Britain. And we educate five million primary school children around the developing world, at a cost of 2.5 per cent of what we spend on British children.
Even though my first marriage broke up, I’d say that I’ve had two good marriages and two good men. I’ve been very lucky. I like to think it’s karma because, in a relationship, I give 300 per cent. I’m straight with my men, and I like to think it comes back.
I do believe anybody manufacturing products for healthcare cannot regard it truly as a 100 per cent business: it is business plus a humanitarian approach to society because you are saving lives. You are playing with people’s lives.
In every character that you play… I mean, I don’t think I’ll ever be the type of actor or performer per se who transforms, you know? Like Claire Danes transforms into Temple Grandin – I’m not gonna do that.
In some markets, we don’t have a lot of room to expand. We’ve done studies of store density and essentially found our more dense markets have more than one store per 15,000 people.
In contrast to the troposphere, the stratosphere is extremely dry and practically cloudless – the concentration of water vapor is measured in parts per million and is, in fact, comparable to that of ozone.
As an economist, the only advice I can give the Modi government is to take some steps that will raise the morale of the consumer and investor. That means income tax abolition and reducing the annual interest rate to nine per cent.
Eventually everything connects – people, ideas, objects. The quality of the connections is the key to quality per se.
We need to focus much more on the bottom 40 per cent. They are losing ground, and the fact that they are losing ground blocks social mobility and brings down economic growth.
Healthcare is growing now at about 10 per cent per annum in the U.S. top line, versus 3 per cent for the economy. As someone with a sharp pencil and an eye for this kind of thing, this can’t last.
It’s obvious you always have to give everything in order to succeed. That’s why playing at 80 per cent isn’t enough – not against a ‘normal’ Bundesliga team. You always have to work hard.
I train all week just to play for 90 minutes. I love playing games, and so during those 90 minutes, it’s always 100 per cent.
The scary thing is that in my lifetime, 95 per cent of the world’s rhinos have been killed.
I’m definitely not a supermodel, a thousand per cent.
I know I’m in the exceptional position of having money, but I didn’t have it for many decades. I’m always trying to get shows put on for 25 per cent less production costs.
Due to the reliance on the old heavy industries in many parts of the country, it makes perfect sense that we need to spend more money per head of population on welfare support in Scotland.
I learnt a lot about myself, I learnt a lot about other people and the problems they have. If I was lucky enough to live to a hundred, how I will feel about two per cent of my life being that way, I don’t know.
By 1931, after a few years’ experience of flying scheduled airlines, those planes were operating at roughly 600 times the safety of the space shuttle. I look at safety not in terms of fatalities per passenger-mile, but when you get in and close the door, what is the risk of dying on this flight?
The Church controlled so much in Ireland for so long. I’m not going to get into whether or not religion per se is a bad thing, but my point is the political aspect in Ireland was way out of kilter, and it wasn’t right.
My view is that at a certain age – and we can debate whether that age is 70-72 or 75 – members need to step off boards. As per the banking guidelines, that age for the director on a board today is 70.
To be straight, if I play and don’t bowl 90 miles an hour it’s going to be news. If I don’t bowl 90 miles per hour for long enough it’s going to be news. If I don’t put my left sock on first, it’s going to be news. I understand that is the scrutiny of playing at this level and being in that spotlight.
It’s not 100 per cent clear to me what’s working about Snapchat.
Honestly, even if I was dating someone, I will not talk about it unless I am 100 per cent sure about it, because I am a private person.
I don’t worry about chemicals. There are enough chemicals entering my body through all the fizzy drinks I consume to worry if my lip balm is 100 per cent organic.
I didn’t ‘decide’ to write YA, per se. But every time I thought of a story, it featured characters 15, 16, 17.
I think when people twitter 20 or 30 times per day, that’s too much. They are boxing everyone else out, and people stop following them because they need a break.
Why, when India’s agricultural products are among the cheapest in the world despite a low yield per hectare, are we not able to double the production and export the products abroad?
Once upon a time, I was a workaholic clocking more than 80 hours per week. That changed after I began to write. I now work only around 35 hours per week. I do not work on weekends because these are the days that I use for research as well as for my writing.
It’s a massive difference when you play in front of full stadiums; you can sense the buzz around the players, and it helps us get that extra one or two per cent that may be the difference in games.
If someone sees me with what looks like a beer, it’s always zero per cent.
I’ve changed my character 100 per cent; if not, I could never have become a manager.

The price of imported oil in the US doubled between summer 2003 and summer 2005, reducing consumers’ purchasing power by more than 1 per cent of gross domestic product.
When I arrived in Ford, a decision was made to sell many marquee brands. This was because 85 per cent of the sales were from Ford and Lincoln brands. We were clear that for the company’s strong future, we needed to focus on the Ford brands.
You’re shooting the quarterback, and he drops back to pass the ball, and you see the ball leave his hand at 10 frames per second. At 7 frames per second, the ball’s already gone.
In Cuba you get a quarter of a chicken per month. They give you one bread per person a day. So, it makes your life really tough.
Jimmy Fallon’s strengths are that he’s fun, and he’s good at impressions, and he’s musically inclined. And my strength is that I’m a joke writer, but I also have no filter, and I think that that’s not a talent per se, but it’s just a thing about myself that I have found that people like about what I do.
The European auto industry made a commitment to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by an average of 140 grams per kilometer. But then there was a significant change in what customers wanted in their vehicles.
It was darn nigh impossible for women in rock in the ’70s. There wasn’t a mold if you were a woman and you were in the entertainment in the ’70s. You were probably a disco diva or a folk singer, or simply ornamental. Radio would play only one woman per hour.
It is true that raids and battles killed a tiny percentage of the numbers that die in modern warfare. But in tribal violence, the clashes are more frequent, the percentage of men in the population who fight is greater, and the rates of death per battle are higher.
I’ve always been really attracted to playing with structure. To take the story of ‘Fargo’ and break it up in such a way that’s it’s not linear, per se.
To me, Shane Warne is a great turner of the ball. I like his aggressive attitude, I love the way he attacks batsmen, and I give him 100 per cent for that, as not enough spinners bowl with that approach, but in my estimation, Subhash Gupte was a better leg-spinner.
