“I often use detective elements in my books. I love detective novels. But I also think science fiction and detective stories are very close and friendly genres, which shows in the books by Isaac Asimov, John Brunner, and Glen Cook. However, whilst even a tiny drop of science fiction may harm a detective story, a little detective element benefits science fiction. Such a strange puzzle.” ThinkingMayLittlesBookStoriesUseShowsFictionNovelStrangeElementsBenefitsScience FictionHarmTinyCooksGenreFriendlyPuzzlesDetectivesIsaacDetective Stories Author:Sergei Lukyanenko
“The combination of the Liberal and Labour Parties is much stronger than the Liberal Party would be if there were no third Party in existence. Many men who would in that case have voted for us voted on this occasion as the Labour Party told them i.e. for the Liberals. The Labour Party has "come to stay"...the existence of the third Party deprives us of the full benefits of the 'swing of the pendulum', introduces a new element into politics and confronts us with a new difficulty.” IfsMenWould BePartyExistenceCasesElementsBenefitsThirdsDifficultyStrongerOccasionsCombinationLabourSwingsIntroducingLabour PartyPendulumsThird PartiesLiberal Party Author:Austen Chamberlain
“Certain elements of today's ecological crisis reveal its moral character. First among these is the indiscriminate application of advances in science and technology. Many recent discoveries have brought undeniable benefits to humanity. Indeed, they demonstrate the nobility of the human vocation to participate responsibly in God's creative action in the world. Unfortunately, it is now clear that the application of these discoveries in the fields of industry and agriculture have produced harmful long-term effects.” WorldFirstsHumansLongCharacterTodayActionCertainHumanityTermMoralTechnologyCreativeClearEffectsFieldsIndustryElementsBenefitsDiscoveryCrisisEnvironmentalLong TermApplicationSustainabilityAgricultureVocationNobilityEcologicalScience And TechnologyMoral CharacterAdvances In ScienceEcological Crisis Author:Pope John Paul II
“Intelligence is a separate gift, for the benefit of students, so that they may think of themselves as intellectual and not very intelligent, or intelligent and not very intellectual. One hopes, of course, that they try to bring the two virtues, the two elements, into their lives at the same time.” ThinkingTryingMayTwoCoursesVirtueStudentsElementsBenefitsIntellectualIntelligent Author:Maya Angelou
“This needs to work on that level, but it has the additional strain of it's going to be profoundly scrutinized by political junkies from the right and the left who will pick apart every little thing. We are inherently dramatizing Hillary Rodham, or Hillary Clinton, who's a very famous figure. There's a lot of biographies about her, but there's also elements that are private moments, that are dramatized with an arc, and we have to take creative license. Everything is sort of a cost-benefit.” NeedsLittlesMomentsPoliticalLeftLevelsCreativeFiguresCostElementsBenefitsPicksClintonLittle ThingsBiographiesStrainLicenseArcsJunkieVery Famous Author:James Ponsoldt
“I've learned that the universe doesn't care what our motives are, only our actions. So we should do things that will bring about good, even if there is an element of selfishness involved. Like the kids at my school might join the Key Club or Future Buisness Leaders of America, because it's a social thing and looks good on their record, not because they really want to volunteer at the nursing home. But the people at the nursing home still benefit from it, so it's better that the kids do it than not do it. And if they never did it, then they wouldn't find out that they actually liked it.” PeopleIfsWantShouldLooksStillsHomeMightCareKidsActionSchoolAmericaUniverseSocialLeaderRecordsKeysInvolvedElementsBenefitsClubsSelfishnessMotiveI've LearnedVolunteerOur ActionsNursingBuisnessNursing Home Book:13 Gifts Source: 13 Gifts
