“I hope that any expansion of London will learn from the planning examples of some of its most desirable areas such as Chelsea, Notting Hill, Belgravia and Mayfair. All are characterised by high density and a generosity of green spaces. They are all pedestrian-friendly with shops, entertainment, restaurants and pubs within easy walking distance.” EasySpaceExampleWalkingAreasGreenDistanceEntertainmentLondonPlanningHillsGenerosityRestaurantsShopsFriendlyExpansionDesirablePubsChelseaDensityPedestriansNotting HillMayfair Author:Norman Foster
“The walking tour guides one through the city's various landmarks, reciting bits of information the listener might find enlightening. I learned, for example, that in the late 1500s my little neighborhood square was a popular spot for burning people alive. Now lined with a row of small shops, the tradition continues, though in a figurative rather than literal sense.” PeopleLittlesMightBitsCitiesAliveInformationExampleWalkingLateTraditionVariousGuidesSpotsBurningShopsNeighborhoodSquaresListenersEnlighteningLiteralLandmarksRecitingTour Guides Book:Me Talk Pretty One Day Source: Me Talk Pretty One Day
“For example, I'm a great fan of pornography, but I don't see any reason not to restrict it so that people walking down the street who hate pornography don't have full color pictures outside of movie theaters. Let them be in a different district. I'm kidding about pornography, but you get the point.” PeopleDifferentReasonHateFansStreetsExampleColorWalkingTheaterPornographyMovie TheaterGreat Fans Author:Paul R. Ehrlich
“To those of us who are not theologians, does it matter whether a thing is ordained or merely allowed? Are events that seem out of control caused by God? Or does He allow them to occur at the hands of human beings? You can spend a lot of time pondering that one and end up pretty much where you started. In either case, the purpose remains the same - our sanctification. God is in the business of making us walking, breathing examples of the invisible reality of the presence of Christ in us.” HumansDoeEndsMatterHandsRealitySeemsPurposeChristHuman BeingsCasesEventsExampleWalkingRemainsInvisibleBreathingTheologianPonderingSanctificationDoes It Matter Author:Elisabeth Elliot
“I think it is quite wrong to photograph, for example, Garbo, if she doesn't want to be photographed. Now I would have loved to photograph her, but she obviously didn't want to be photographed so I didn't follow it up. Then somebody will photograph her walking down the street because she has to walk down the street, and I mind that sort of intrusion. I think this is horrible.” IfsThinkingWantMindWalksStreetsExampleWalkingPhotographHorribleIntrusionGarbo Author:Antony Armstrong-Jones, 1st Earl of Snowdon
“The notion of the writer as a kind of sociological sample of a community is ludicrous. Even worse is the notion that writers should provide an example of how to live. Virginia Woolf ended her life by putting a rock in her sweater one day and walking into a lake. She is not a model of how I want to live my life. On the other hand, the bravery of her syntax, of her sentences, written during her deepest depression, is a kind of example for me. But I do not want to become Virginia Woolf. That is not why I read her.” WantShouldKindHandsCommunityWrittenRocksExampleWalkingOne DayModelsBraveryNotionSentencesLakesLiving My LifeVirginiaSampleSweatersSyntaxSociologicalWoolf Author:Richard Rodriguez

“I don't know whether we'll have another Michael Jackson or Elvis, because the world's too quick to level the playing field in that regard. For example, if Michael Jackson did the moonwalk for the first time now, and it debuted on Twitter, the third comment would probably be: "He's just walking backwards."” IfsKnowsWorldFirstsLevelsExampleFieldsWalkingFirst TimeThirdsRegardCommentBackwardsPlaying FieldsWalking Backwards Author:Matthew Healy
“Regarding some of the super powers that I reference, like walking on water, I haven't seen people do that, but once you get into the science, a lot of it starts to make a lot of sense, for example, like people being able to read your mind. It's very logical, because words are just a grosser form of thought, and thought is just a grosser form of feeling.” PeopleMindFeelingsAbleFormWaterHavensExampleWalkingLogicalSuper PowerWalking On Water Author:Karan Bajaj
