As far as I'm concerned, the more power we push back to the patient, the individual, the American citizen, the more responsive the system is to her needs. 'Obamacare,is responsive' is like a hammer is responsive to a piece of glass.

Bill Cassidy

I suppose I was formed by too many movies and too much television. At some point I absorbed the dramatic formula.

Stephen Hunter

Technology teaches passivity. Absorbed in our devices - at any age - we are absorbed in someone elses perspective.

Julia Cameron

Technology teaches passivity. Absorbed in our devices - at any age - we are absorbed in someone else's perspective.

Julia Cameron

There are questions as to whether it should even exist. Who should corporations be responsive to, the management of a corporation? Theoretically they are responsive to the shareholders, but I why not to the so - called stakeholders, the work force and the community? Nothing in economic theory opposes that.

When you have children, you realize how easy it is to not see them fully, and perhaps miss all those early years. If you are not careful, you can be too absorbed in work, and they will be only too happy to tell you about it later. Being a parent is one of greatest mindfulness practices of all.

Jon Kabat-Zinn

Unless you have read and absorbed the best that can be read and absorbed, you will not think clearly or well.

Harold Bloom

I am too busy with my cause to hate too absorbed in something bigger than myself. I have no time to quarrel, no time for regrets and no man can force me to stoop low enough to hate him.

Lawrence James

Oh. I just assumed... That because I am so absorbed by him everyone must be too.

Veronica Roth

Jodi Melnick is hotly self-absorbed. Her onstage musicians are much too loud, and like so many narcissistic performers, she goes on much too long: She's interested in herself; why wouldn't we be?
