“I would be concerned that it could be characterized as being a diktat from Brussels.”
David Byrne
“It really should be characterized as two taxpaying citizens being thrown off campus. They should not characterize it as a personnel matter, but as us, people outside the system, non-employees, who have a problem with the way a school is operating.”
Will James

Dalai Lama
“The old system of having a baby was much better than the new system, the old system being characterized by the fact that the man didn't have to watch.”
Dave Barry
“Our attitude toward our own culture has recently been characterized by two qualities, braggadocio and petulance. Braggadocio -- empty boasting of American power, American virtue, American know-how -- has dominated our foreign relations now for some decades. Here at home -- within the family, so to speak -- our attitude to our culture expresses a superficially different spirit, the spirit of petulance. Never before, perhaps, has a culture been so fragmented into groups, each full of its own virtue, each annoyed and irritated at the others.”
Daniel J. Boorstin
“The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato”
Alfred North Whitehead
“The relationship which I have found helpful is characterized by a sort of transparency on my part, in which my real feelings are evident; by an acceptance of this other person as a separate person with value in his own right; and by a deep empathic understanding which enables me to see his private world through his eyes.”
Carl Rogers
