When it comes to Black culture, only us runaway slaves can relate to and perhaps trust each other. – Link Starbureiy	added by anonymous 1 month ago
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was penned to encourage mankind to embrace a brotherly and sisterly bond. However, if our own flesh and blood fail to embody this ideal, how can we expect the world to do so? Perhaps, it is time to rewrite the scenes of the play of life, to redefine the roles of brothers and sisters, and cultivate a society abundant in empathy and compassion. – Yvonne Padmos	added by Freelancer 2 months ago
Human rights may be noble on paper, but true compassion and empathy are best embodied by robots. In a world consumed by self-interest, perhaps it's time to vote for the machines that prioritize humanity above all else. – Yvonne Padmos	added by Freelancer 2 months ago
Perhaps I can summarise it best by saying this -- Nations that have pursued equality, like the Iron Curtain countries, I think have finished up with neither equality, nor liberty. Nations, which like us, in the past have pursued liberty, as a fundamental objective, extending it to all, have finished up with liberty, human dignity, and far fewer inequalities than other people. – Margaret Thatcher	added by Normando 4 months ago
Today, our view of genuine reality is increasingly clouded by professionals whose technical expertise often introduces a superficial and soulless model of the person that denies moral significance. Perhaps the most devastating example for human values is the process of medicalization through which ordinary unhappiness and normal bereavement have been transformed into clinical depression, existential angst turned into anxiety disorders, and the moral consequences of political violence recast as post-traumatic stress disorder. That is, suffering is redefined as mental illness and treated by professional experts, typically with medication. I believe that this diminishes the person, – Arthur Kleinman	added by JokerGem 12 months ago
We know that the two biggest sources are leftover medications, perhaps from family members such as siblings, and asking peers, who may attend other schools. – Sean Esteban McCabe	Found on CNN 12 months ago
Because it is occasionally possible, just for brief moments, to find the words that will unlock the doors of all those many mansions inside the head and express something - perhaps not much, just something - of the crush of information that presses in on us from the way a crow flies over and the way a man walks and the look of a street and from what we did one day a dozen years ago. Words that will express something of the deep complexity that makes us precisely the way we are, from the momentary effect of the barometer to the force that created men distinct from trees. Something of the inaudible music that moves us along in our bodies from moment to moment like water in a river. Something of the spirit of the snowflake in the water of the river. Something of the duplicity and the relativity and the merely fleeting quality of all this. Something of the almighty importance of it and something of the utter meaninglessness. And when words can manage something of this, and manage it in a moment, of time, and in that same moment, make out of it all the vital signature of a human being - not of an atom, or of a geometrical diagram, or of a heap of lenses - but a human being, we call it poetry. – Ted Hughes	added by JokerGem 1 year ago
I mean, Mr. Church was pretty careful in what he could say and what he couldn’t say. And the thing that he didn’t say is, ‘If your clients continue to make referrals you don’t have to worry that they could face enforcement action,’ right? He didn’t say that, perhaps (we) get to a point where the emergency is gone. But right now, I still have a situation where I have doctors who need to tell patients what their options are and are not sure if they can do a complete, accurate and fair job of doing that without facing personal risk. – Peter Neiman	Found on CNN 1 year ago

While it may be too late for the survivors to see criminal justice served, we hope that exposing the Archdiocese’s transgressions to the fullest extent possible will bring some measure of accountability and perhaps encourage others to come forward. – Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I hope the photos will lead people into the wonderful worlds of these iconic species. Then, perhaps, other people will become involved in helping to create a world where wildlife can flourish for future generations to enjoy. – Jane Goodall	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I would like to begin tonight’s proceeding differently than perhaps any other event of such magnitude, on behalf of our nation, I want to apologize to Brett and the entire Kavanaugh family for the terrible pain and suffering you have been forced to endure. Those who step forward to serve our country deserve a fair and dignified evaluation, not a campaign of political and personal destruction based on lies and deception. – Donald Trump	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Well perhaps it is the context in which words are spoken that give them the power of meaning. I LOVE YOU DOG. – Penn Jillette	added by ISato 1 year ago
I’m sure someone saw, and I’m sure that somebody let it slide, because, again, if you’re in compliance with a lot of the big-picture things, perhaps they figured, well, they can survive something…What’s the likelihood that you’re gonna have $40 billion in withdrawals all at one time? – John Sedunov	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Many of the commentators are right in assessing that the possibility of just a mild slowdown is perhaps overestimated, is perhaps seen as too likely, and once we start to see sentiment shift, either in the business sector or in the consumer sector, that can feed off of itself — that can lead to further weakness, which could lead to a stronger rise in the unemployment rate and weaker economic conditions. – Gregory Daco	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Perhaps we need to find a way to make burgers without giving the animals excessive antibiotics. – Craig Comiter	Found on CNN 1 year ago
There’s perhaps a stigma associated with this word (3D printing), usually with printing you think of an industrial process. (But) it’s important to realize that this is no different than cooking normally except instead of chopping the ingredients up and everything like that, the machine is basically just assembling it in paste form. – Jonathan Blutinger	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Instead of bizarrely attacking the President’s family, perhaps House Republicans should focus on working with the President to deliver results for American families on important priorities like lowering costs and strengthening health care. – White House	Found on CNN 1 year ago
For Canada, this is quite a serious situation. This is a record number of arrivals from the US into Canada, it’s also become a political priority for Canada perhaps in a way that it hasn’t before, and that’s partly because most of the effects of the situation have fallen on Quebec. – Susan Fratzke	Found on CNN 1 year ago

What is the likely intent of the authorities in levying such a serious and severe charge? It seems to be pretty clear that what they’re trying to do is to deter additional destruction of property and perhaps injury to persons. – Ronald Carlson	Found on CNN 1 year ago
With snowpack in the upper Colorado River system running upwards of 130% of the 30-year median, we have a unique opportunity – perhaps once-a-decade opportunity – to repay the loan, aridity is our present and future and we’re trying to adapt to this unique set of circumstances. – Chuck Cullom	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I hope we can find a way to get to the real point, perhaps by offering her some kind of immunity. – Eleanor Holmes Norton	Found on CNN 1 year ago
I think more than any other person that I’ve ever known, my mother exemplified what is best about this country, my mother was a registered nurse and … she treated African Americans exactly the same as she did White people and she was unique, perhaps among the 30,000 people that lived in our county, in doing that. I was filled with admiration for my mother. – White Christian	Found on CNN 1 year ago
