I described the euro as a burning building with no exits and so it has proved for some of the countries in it.

William Hague

It would be wonderful if we could avoid the setbacks with timely exits, but nobody has figured out how to predict them.

Peter Lynch

Our focus is not on exit. In fact if you talk to any of my entrepreneurs, I'm generally saying, 'Don't sell the company,' when other investors want to sell. I'd much rather focus on building long-term value in building companies rather than worrying about exits.

Vinod Khosla

We don't really believe in mowing the lawn; we do it only to avoid unnecessary engagement with the neighbors.

Miranda July

I'm proud of our relationship with our neighbors right next door in Mexico. I don't talk about building walls, I talk about building bridges and increasing that communication, increasing that flow, and that's really what defines our border region in San Diego.

Kevin Faulconer

I've not been able to avoid periods of time where I felt super-lonely. Luckily, I have a side that is able to always see the glass as half-full.

Will Ferrell

You take something like RingCentral. It doesn't need any more money or financing: it is relatively mature, recurring revenue business - not really worried - but you know, we could sell it tomorrow. We have not been in a rush to sell it. We don't care about exits as much. We care about building fundamental value.

Vinod Khosla

Sane people did what their neighbors did, so that if any lunatics were at large, one might know and avoid them.

George Eliot

A bank in Washington was robbed by two men in George W. Bush masks. Luckily, right afterwards two guys in President Obama masks came and bailed the bank out, so everything is fine.

Conan O'Brien

The soul is a temple; and God is silently building it by night and by day. Precious thoughts are building it; disinterested love is building it; all-penetrating faith is building it.

Henry Ward Beecher

Neighbors bring food with death and flowers with sickness and little things in between. Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a pair of good-luck pennies, and our lives. But neighbors give in return. We never put back into the tree what we took out of it: we had given him nothing, and it made me sad.

Harper Lee

Israel should share its great wealth with its neighbors, like the Palestinians, in areas like governance and investment as well as the building of institutions.

Jose Angel Gurria

To avoid pain, they avoid pleasure. To avoid death, they avoid life.

Rajneesh

My child, you are going to be a great king; do not imitate me in the taste I have had for building, or in that I have had for war; try, on the contrary, to be at peace with your neighbors.

Louis XIV

Of the two, I considered it more important to avoid a war with England about Oregon than a war with Mexico, important as I thought it was to avoid that.
