I was in Dallas and I had gained weight and knew becoming a vegetarian was the quickest way to lose it. I just wasn't sure if I could do it.

JaVale McGee

We are at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it has been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening.

Ronald Reagan

The quickest way to stop noticing something may be to buy it, just as the quickest way to stop appreciating a person may be to marry them.

Allison Pearson

Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find time. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

Brian Dyson

There's a reason a happy ending is called an ending. The trick of a television storyteller is to find all the rivers and mountains and valleys on the way to that ending.

Julie Plec

Abraham Lincoln

I'm not in Iraq. I'm here in California. Have I had an argument with my husband today? Have I been at war with someone in my life today - or with myself? Let me work on that. That way war is ending somewhere in the world.

Byron Katie

To me, you can't win. You can't win. There's a war in Iraq; there's no way that they're ending that. The war in Afghanistan is still going on. There's no way that's going to end anytime soon. You can complain about it, you can throw rocks at it, but you really have to come to the conclusion that this is a really twisted place sometimes and some stuff you're not going to win.

Lupe Fiasco

War does not answer war, war does not finish war. The only ending is peace.

Philippa Gregory

I always had this idea that you should never give up a happy middle in the hopes of a happy ending, because there is no such thing as a happy ending. Do you know what I mean? There is so much to lose.

John Green

As I've said many times and publicly, a war between China and Taiwan that involves the United States is a lose-lose-lose.

Dennis C. Blair

It wasn't so easy though, ending the war. A war is a huge fire; the ashes from it drift far, and settle slowly.

Margaret Atwood

War is worthless except for ending slavery, Nazism, fascism, and communism. Other than that, war is pointless.

Rush Limbaugh

If we lose the war in the air we lose the war and lose it quickly.

Bernard Law Montgomery

If we lose the war in the air we lose the war and we lose it quickly.

Bernard Law Montgomery

I return with feelings of misgiving from my third war-I was the first American commander to put his signature to a paper ending a war when we did not win it.

Bill Vaughan
