“We who are privileged to be in these chambers today can view the challenges we face as opportunities, not as reasons for despair.

Each of you might suggest different words, but our goal certainly is the same: a better Oregon.” IfsDifferentReasonMightTodayFacesSpiritOpportunityGoalTermCan DoChallengesViewsDespairIndependentReverencePrivilegedChamberOregonChallenges We Face Author:Tom McCall
“Human life has no meaning independent of itself. There is no cosmic force or deity to give it meaning or significance. There is no ultimate destiny for man. Such a belief is an illusion of humankind's infancy. The meaning of life is what we choose to give it. Meaning grows out of human purposes alone. Nature provides us with an infinite range of opportunities, but it is only our vision and our action that select and realize those that we desire.” MenGivingHumansActionLife IsDesirePurposeOpportunityBeliefForceGrowsRealizingVisionDestinyAtheismIllusionUltimateInfiniteIndependentRangeHuman LifeMeaning Of LifeSignificanceCosmicHumankindDeitiesOur ActionsSelectInfancyLife Has No Meaning Author:Paul Kurtz
“many rules could be made for the giving of orders. Don't preach when you give orders. Don't discuss matters already settled unless you have fresh data. Make your direction so specific that there will be no question whether they have been obeyed or not. Find out how to give directions and yet to allow people opportunity for independent thinking, for initiative. And so on and so on. Order-giving requires just as much study and just as much training as any other skill we wish to acquire.” PeopleThinkingGivingHas BeensMadeMatterOrderOpportunityWishLeadershipStudySkillsTrainingIndependentManagementDataAcquireInitiativeIndependent Thinking Author:Mary Parker Follett
“What you realize is it's not about financial success as an artist. A lot of actors and actresses, producers, writers, and the creative people in the business realize that. It's not about that. Yeah, we all want to be successful, but we all just want to create and we want to tell the stories. We want to continue creating the opportunities to be able to continue doing what we love. So, at the end of the day, I feel like it's a win-win for everybody to be able to make these independent films.” PeopleWantFeelsEndsStoriesAbleFilmArtistActorsOpportunityWinningRealizingCreativeSuccessfulCreatingIndependentYeahFinancialActressesProducersBeing SuccessfulThe End Of The DayCreative PeopleIndependent FilmWin WinFinancial SuccessActors And Actresses Author:Jennifer Lopez
“The ability to secure an independent livelihood and honorable employ suited to her education and capacities is the only true foundation of the social elevation of woman, even in the very highest classes of society. While she continues to be educated only to be somebody's wife, and is left without any aim in life till that somebody either in love, or in pity, or in selfish regard at last grants her the opportunity, she can never be truly independent.” LastsOpportunityLeftSocialAbilityClassWifeHighestCapacityRegardAimIndependentFoundationSelfishPityEducatedSecureGrantsHonorableLivelihoodElevationClasses Of Society Book:The true remedy for the wrongs of woman: with a history of an enterprise having that for its object Source: The true remedy for the wrongs of woman: with a history of an enterprise having that for its object
“The sad thing about our society is that women are put in one of two categories. You're either in the beautiful category and you're seen as sexy and beautiful, or some version of that, or you're put into another category... The latter category affords women the opportunity to be smart, funny, independent, mean, strong, intelligent and opinionated. We take them seriously as politicians, if they fit into that latter category. We respect their opinions more and give them higher expectations. That latter category is what allows female actors to be characters.” IfsGivingMeanTwoCharacterBeautifulActorsOpportunityStrongOpinionHigherPoliticianFitSmartExpectationsFemaleIntelligentIndependentSexyVersionsLatterOur SocietyCategoriesBeing SmartOpinionatedSad Things Author:Amber Heard
“On the set of an independent film you can tell that nobody is doing it for the money. Everyone is there because they love the script. A smaller budget sort of unifies everyone; it's a real team effort and that's amazing. But these opportunities just don't present themselves that often for me, so basically any chance I get to do something different I jump on it.” DifferentRealFilmOpportunityChanceEffortTeamIndependentScriptsBudgetsIndependent FilmTeam Effort Author:Will Ferrell
