“When it comes to the environment and global warming from emissions, it has to be dealt with in one of two ways - preemptive regulations, which I don't agree with, or with private property principles. Nobody has the right to pollute their neighbors' air or water or land.” WayTwoWaterPrinciplesEnvironmentAirLandAgreePropertyNeighborGlobal WarmingRegulationTwo WaysEmissionsPrivate Property Author:Ron Paul
“I believe that during the intervention of NATO in Kosovo there is an element nobody can question: the air attacks, the bombs, are not caused by a material interest. Their character is exclusively humanitarian: What is at stake here are the principles, human rights which have priority above state sovereignty. This makes it legitimate to attack the Yugoslav Federation, although without the United Nations mandate.” BelieveHumansStatesCharacterI BelieveNationsInterestUnitedPrinciplesRightsAirMaterialsElementsHuman RightsHumanitarianPrioritiesBombsStakesSovereigntyUnited NationsInterventionMandatesNatoFederationKosovo Author:Vaclav Havel
“Be it remembered that man subsists upon the air more than upon his meat and drink; but no one can exist for an hour without a copious supply of air. The atmosphere which some breathe is contaminated and adulterated, and with its vital principles so diminished that it cannot fully decarbonize the blood, nor fully excite the nervous system.” MenHoursPrinciplesAirBloodHealthDrinkBreatheNervousAtmosphereRememberedMeatNervous System Author:William Makepeace Thackeray
“In England, wit is at least a profession, if not an art. everything becomes professional there, and even the rogues of that islandare pedants. So are the "wits" there too. They introduce into reality absolute freedom whose reflection lends a romantic and piquant air to wit, and thus they live wittily; hence their talent for madness. They die for their principles.” IfsArtRealityDiesPrinciplesAirTalentReflectionMadnessEnglandAbsolutesProfessionWitIntroducingRoguesAbsolute FreedomPedants Author:Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
“Failure of success is not race-related; it's not socioeconomics-related; it is really predictable, based on principles that are laid down by God the Creator by which we are supposed to function. If we find them and obey them, success becomes inevitable. That's why I was able to move from rats to 40,000 feet in the air in my own aircraft.” IfsAbleMovingMy OwnRacePrinciplesAirFeetFunctionCreatorInevitableRelatedRatsPredictableAircraft Author:Myles Munroe
“The activities and effects of the Fire and Air elements in the astral sphere call forth the astral-electric fluid, and the activities and effects of the Water and Earth elements call forth the astral-magnetic fluid. The spirit-beings use these fluids to create the effects or rather the causes in our physical world. The Akasha Principle of the astral sphere maintains the harmonious equilibrium of the elements in the entire astral sphere.” WorldUseEarthSpiritCausesWaterPrinciplesFireMagicAirEffectsActivityElementsMysticismSpheresElectricFluidHarmoniousEquilibriumMagnetic Author:Franz Bardon

“On this question of principle, while actual suffering was yet afar off, they [the Colonies] raised their flag against a power to which, for purposes of foreign conquest and subjugation, Rome in the height of her glory is not to be compared,-a power which has dotted over the surface of the whole globe with her possessions and military posts, whose morning drum-beat, following the sun, and keeping company with the hours, circles the earth with one continuous and unbroken strain of the martial airs of England.” WholeEarthPurposeSufferingHoursCompanyPrinciplesMorningPowerSunAirMilitaryBeatsGloryEnglandRaisedFollowingPossessionSurfaceCirclesPostsHeightRomeFlagsGlobesStrainConquestColonyUnbrokenAfarSubjugationDrum Beats Author:Daniel Webster
“It is an advantage to all narrow wisdom and narrow morals that their maxims have a plausible air; and, on a cursory view, appear equal to first principles. They are light and portable.

“Art as an aesthetic principle was supported by thousands of years of discernment and psychic rewards, but art as a commodity was held up by air. The loss of confidence that affected banks and financial instruments was not affecting cherubs, cupids and flattened popes. The objects hadn't changed: what was there before was there after.

“I studied in London in 1968. Our school had a separate department of tropical architecture. Of course it was totally unfashionable, partly because nobody wanted to think about colonialism, but basically what you learned there was that, OK, the sun is here, so you should create natural ventilation here - an unbelievable amount of really sound principles that have been completely abandoned, so now everything is air conditioned with big machines.” ThinkingShouldHas BeensBigsWantedSchoolCoursesSoundNaturalPrinciplesSunAirAmountMachinesLondonArchitectureDepartmentAbandonedColonialismUnbelievableTropicalVentilation Author:Rem Koolhaas
