Al Yankovic(Comedian) I've learned how to use my spam filter pretty effectively. There are probably a few library fines I haven't paid yet, but I'm a pretty clean-cut guy overall. You fake something until you're good at it. My hobbies just sort of gradually became my vocation. Some people want to advertise their weirdness, and spread it out, that's not me. As my father used to tell me, the only ..

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam(11th President of India) All the scientists and technologists should work in appropriate region, specifically the rural technologies, to transform Indian rural sector. The government, whether state or central, is elected. That means we have a responsibility to elect the right kind of leaders. Today, India is a nuclear weapons state. Measuring nuclear yield depends on multipl..

Adam Smith(Economist) It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest. Man is an animal that makes bargains: no other animal does this - no dog exchanges bones with another. Science is the great antidote to the poison of enthusiasm and superstition. The real tragedy of the poor is the poverty of their ..

Abraham Maslow(Psychologist) What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself. If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life. What a man can be, he must be. This need we call self-actualization. If you only have a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail. The ability to be in the present m..

Abraham Lincoln(16th President of the United States) Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right. You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today. You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time. Give me six hours to ch..

Adlai Stevenson I(Politician) On the plains of hesitation lie the blackened bones of countless millions who at the dawn of victory lay down to rest, and in resting died. You can tell the size of a man by the size of the thing that makes him mad. I'm not an old, experienced hand at politics. But I am now seasoned enough to have learned that the hardest thing about any political campaign is how to..

Adam Sandler(Comedian, actor, writer, singer, film producer) My name is Adam Sandler. I'm not particularly talented. I'm not particularly good-looking. And yet I'm a multi-millionaire. Chemistry can be a good and bad thing. Chemistry is good when you make love with it. Chemistry is bad when you make crack with it. Well I have a microphone and you don't so you will listen to every damn word I hav..

Abu Bakr(1st Caliph of the Rashidun Caliphate) Without knowledge action is useless and knowledge without action is futile. Allah will help him who moves in the way of Allah. The more knowledge you have, the greater will be your fear of Allah. The greatest truth is honesty, and the greatest falsehood is dishonesty. Cursed is the man who dies, but the evil done by him survives. Pride in the case o..
