Mr. David Stockman has said that supply-side economics was merely a cover for the trickle-down approach to economic policy — what an older and less elegant generation called the horse-and-sparrow theory: If you feed the horse enough oats, some will pass through to the road for the sparrows. — John Kenneth Galbraith

Running is a road to self-awareness and reliance-you can push yourself to extremes and learn the harsh reality of your physical and mental limitations or coast quietly down a solitary path watching the earth spin beneath your feet. — Doris Brown Heritage

That's my goal: to be more Merchant-Ivory-Wayans. — Zach Galifianakis

Brazil does not have direct access to the rivers of the Rio de la Plata region. The River Plate itself empties into the Atlantic in Argentina, meaning that for centuries traders have moved their goods down to Buenos Aires rather than carry them up and down the Grand Escarpment to get to Brazil’s underdeveloped ports. Brazil’s seven largest ports combined can handle fewer goods per year than the single port of New Orleans. Therefore, Brazil lacks the volume of trade it would like and most of its goods are moved along its inadequate roads rather than by river, thus increasing costs. Brazil will require a herculean effort to overcome its geographical disadvantages. — Tim Marshall

Safety lies in tending towards our highest and not in resting content with an inferior potentiality.....

Our right and natural road is towards the summits. — Sri Aurobindo

A formula for comedy is comedy equals tragedy plus time. A difficult or uncomfortable situation takes place, and then you laugh about it later down the road. — Brian Regan

You can compromise between good, better, and best, and you can compromise between bad and worse and terrible. But you can’t compromise between good and evil.

If you look at many of the Brazilian coastal cities from the sea there is usually a massive cliff rising dramatically out of the water either side of the urban area or directly behind it. Known as the Great Escarpment, it dominates much of Brazil’s coast. Because the country lacks a coastal plain, to connect its major coastal cities you need to build routes up and over the escarpment, along to the next urban area and then back down. The lack of decent modern roads is compounded by a similar deficiency of rail track. This is not a recipe for profitable trading or for unifying a large space politically. — Tim Marshall

Standing in the middle of the road is very dangerous; you get knocked down by the traffic from both sides. — Margaret Thatcher
