Mueller Quotes By Ferdinand Von Mueller

On a feeling and sensitive mind a demolished forest impresses unmingled sadness, whereas its primeval grandeur must inspire anyone to immeasurable delight, who is susceptible to the beauties of nature. — Ferdinand Von Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

What can I say to convince you
the Houses of Parliament dissolve
night after night to become
the fluid dream of the Thames?
I will not return to a universe
of objects that don't know each other,
as if islands were not the lost children
of one great continent. The world
is flux, and light becomes what it touches. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Kayla Mueller

A true friend sticks with you through thick and thin no matter what. — Kayla Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Together we make the equinox. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Karen Mueller Coombs

Life is a chain of choices. Making the correct one is never easy."

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Tears

The first woman who ever wept
was appalled at what stung
her eyes and ran down her cheeks.
Saltwater. Seawater.
How was it possible?
Hadn't she and the man
spent many days moving
upland to where the grass
flourished, where the stream
quenched their thirst with sweet water?
How could she have carried these sea drops
as if they were precious seeds;
where could she have stowed them?
She looked at the watchful gazelles
and the heavy-lidded frogs;
she looked at glass-eyed birds
and nervous, black-eyed mice.
None of them wept, not even the fish
that dripped in her hands when she caught them.
Not even the man. Only she
carried the sea inside her body. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Kayla Mueller

I've learned that selflessness is a practice, not a place; a journey much more than a destination — Kayla Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Late Hours
On summer nights the world
moves within earshot
on the interstate with its swish
and growl, and occasional siren
that sends chills through us.
Sometimes, on clear, still nights,
voices float into our bedroom,
lunar and fragmented,
as if the sky had let them go
long before our birth.
In winter we close the windows
and read Chekhov,
nearly weeping for his world.
What luxury, to be so happy
that we can grieve
over imaginary lives. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By John Waters

I loved Cookie [Mueller]. She was a much better writer than actress. She shouldn't have stuck with me in the beginning; she should have immediately become a writer. She would have had more of a chance. — John Waters

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

I would say in just about every investigation we have, there will be differences of opinion, where you have partial facts, as to what those facts mean. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Sarah Strohmeyer

If I can't read, if I can't make a simple Indian pudding, then I don't see the point in living much more, really. Because aside from a good book, and perhaps, a fresh morning in a dew-covered garden, few things in life give me as much pleasure as magic of making a truly spectacular dessert. — Sarah Strohmeyer

Mueller Quotes By Brooke Mueller

I'm off to find my world, my dreams,
Carve my niche, sew my seams,
Remember, as I sail my streams-
I'll love you all the way. — Brooke Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Kayla Mueller

This really is my life's work, to go where there is suffering, — Kayla Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Ferdinand Von Mueller

Forests, beyond offering us their plainly utilitarian wealth, have to perform vast physiological functions in the great economy of nature, by contributing predominantly in the empire of vegetation to the liberation of oxygen. — Ferdinand Von Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

I always thought moving to New York would mean starting over in theater, because I had great work in Chicago and didn't want to become a waitress here. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

I'd been acting in Chicago since I came back after University, and I got a call from my agent saying, 'They're doing this revival of 'On a Clear Day,' and I actually auditioned when the team came through Chicago for the 'American Idiot' tour. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

I thought if only we could go on
and meet again, shy as strangers. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

As I said before, there are often disagreements as to what a particular set of facts mean. That is not at all unusual, and one shouldn't read into it more than is there. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

Directors didn't know what to do with me in college. I didn't really sound like a belter. I didn't look like a soprano. But in New York, I was in the right place at the right time, where my unusualness fit the bill. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Charles Duhigg

One of them told me the craving disappeared as soon as we turned the electricity on," Mueller said. "Then, we turned it off, and the craving came back immediately." Eradicating the alcoholics' neurological cravings, however, wasn't enough to stop their drinking habits. Four of them relapsed soon after the surgery, usually after a stressful event. They picked up a bottle because that's how they automatically dealt with anxiety. However, once they learned alternate routines for dealing with stress, the drinking stopped for good. One patient, for instance, attended AA meetings. Others went to therapy. And once they incorporated those new routines for coping with stress and anxiety into their lives, the successes were dramatic. The man who had gone to detox sixty times never had another drink. Two other patients had started drinking at twelve, were alcoholics by eighteen, drank every day, and now have been sober for four years. — Charles Duhigg

Mueller Quotes By Tom Mueller

Once someone tries a real extra virgin
an adult or a child, anybody with taste buds
they'll never go back to the fake kind. It's distinctive, complex, the freshest thing you've ever eaten. It makes you realize how rotten the other stuff is, literally rotten. But there has to be a first time. Somehow we have to get those first drops of real extra virgin oil into their mouths, to break them free from the habituation to bad oil, and from the brainwashing of advertising. There has to be some good oil left in the world for people to taste. — Tom Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

This poem is endless, the odds against us are endless,
our chances of being alive together
statistically nonexistent; — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Now in the thriving season of love
when the bud relents into flower,
your love turned absence has turned once more,
and if my comforts fall soft as rain
on her flutters, it is because
love grows by what it remembers of love — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

I didn't really start performing until high school. My whole family is actually in the business, and started in the business in Chicago, so I was going to shows when I was a teeny-tiny kid, but I didn't really start performing until high school. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

And so every one of us in the FBI, I don't care if it's a file clerk someplace or an agent there or a computer specialist, understands that our main mission is to protect the public from another September 11, another terrorist attack. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Cookie Mueller

People who've never traveled on the ocean have no idea how scary it is to be on a little boat out there with no land in sight, waves towering over you while you do into the valley of a swell with nothing to see except water... water and sky, no other boas anywhere, no semblance of any kinds of firm reality at all. The main thing one shouldn't do is imagine things. One shouldn't think about the boat tipping over, just falling over and rolling under. Things like that happen all of a sudden. A gigantic three story high wave could whollop the boat broadside. Splash! Whoops! You're gone! No hint of a boat in about three minutes! If you don't get sucked under with it, then where are you? — Cookie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

If you look at the 19 hijackers who came to the United States in Sept. 11 to commit those acts, if you'd looked at them before they got onto a plane, you could probably say the same thing. There were various levels of expertise, various levels of competence. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

'White Christmas' is one of my favorite movies, so I've always just had a love for that kind of golden era musical. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Wilson

Christopher Knowles, Buechner, Heiner Mueller, Burroughs, Chekhov, Shakespeare - it's all one body of work. — Robert Wilson

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

I always loved playing the sidekick, and that's what I expected - I didn't think I was pretty enough or diva enough to play the lead. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Hanya Yanagihara

For years afterward, I had dreams in which my mother appeared in strange forms, her features sewn onto other beings in combinations that seemed both grotesque and profound: as a slippery white fish at the end of my hook, with a trout's gaping, sorrowful mouth and her dark, shuttered eyes; as the elm tree at the edge of our property, its ragged clumps of tarnished gold leaves replaced by knotted skeins of her black hair; as the lame gray dog that lived on the Mueller's property, whose mouth, her mouth, opened and closed in yearning and who never made a sound. As I grew older, I came to realize that death had been easy for my mother; to fear death, you must first have something to tether you to life. But she had not. It was as if she had been preparing for her death the entire time I knew her. One day she was alive; the next, not.
And as Sybil said, she was lucky. For what more could we presume to ask from death - but kindness? — Hanya Yanagihara

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

What we bring to the table is not only our 56 field offices in the United States and our number of resident agencies, but also we have 45 legal attaches overseas. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

How swiftly the strained honey
of afternoon light
flows into darkness
and the closed bud shrugs off
its special mystery
in order to break into blossom:
as if what exists, exists
so that it can be lost
and become precious — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Walt Mueller

The ugly reality is that peer pressure reaches its greatest intensity at just the age when kids tend to be most insensitive and cruel. — Walt Mueller

Mueller Quotes By John D. Mueller

On the contrary, what is hidden from the learned and clever is often revealed to the merest children. — John D. Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

We cannot go up on a wire. We cannot do a search without a judge on the FISA Court approving it and determining that we have met the standard that has been set forth by Congress in order to utilize these techniques. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Ferdinand Von Mueller

Where timber vegetation is ruthlessly destroyed, aridity and its sequence sterility will prevail and the hotter the climate, the more to be dreaded. — Ferdinand Von Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Sari Botton

Change is seen as something evil only by those who have lost their youth or sense of humor." That was Cookie Mueller on the East Village, 1985. The — Sari Botton

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

O brave new world, that hath such people in it
Soon you will be like her, Prospero's daughter,
Finding the door that leads you out of yourself,
Out of the rare, enameled ark of your mind,
Where you live with the gracious and light-footed creatures
That thrive in the glaze of your art and freedom. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

In the context of September 11, there were so many that lost their lives that - how do you single out one person? There were so many acts of heroism that day from so many people, whether it be firemen and police officers in New York and our agents also. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

I will not return to a universe
of objects that do not know each other, as if islands were not the long lost children of one great continent — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

When I was in college, I did do some writing of poetry, somewhat inspired, I think at that time, by Carl Sandburg, because English was still relatively new to me, and Sandburg, of course, wrote in a very easy-to-understand, very colloquial and informal manner. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

In planning an attack, persons have various roles. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

Leaking of classified material is a concern. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

I want to celebrate these elms which have been spared by the plague, these survivors of a once flourishing tribe commemorated by all the Elm Streets in America. But to celebrate them is to be silent about the people who sit and sleep underneath them, the homeless poor who are hauled away by the city like trash, except it has no place to dump them. To speak of one thing is to suppress another. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Ferdinand Von Mueller

Let us regard the forests as an inheritance, given to us by nature, not to be despoiled or devastated, but to be wisely used, reverently honoured and carefully maintained. Let us regard the forests as a gift, entrusted to any of us only for transient care, to be surrendered to posterity as an unimpaired property, increased in riches and augmented in blessings, to pass as a sacred patrimony from generation to generation. — Ferdinand Von Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Karen Mueller Coombs

I'm proud of you, son," he said. "I guess it has finally sunk in that it's important to stand up for yourself in this world."
Rocky shook his head. "It's more important to stand up for someone who can't stand up for herself," he had answered.
Rocky Ryan speaking with his father. — Karen Mueller Coombs

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

It's because we need to determine who in this country is poised, positioned to commit terrorist acts. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

I think around the world, our agents are the best collectors of information you'll find. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

I am imprinted with the whole sense of European history, especially German history, going back to World War I, which really destroyed all the old values and culture. My grandparents had been reasonably well-off but they became quite poor, living in an attic apartment. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Monte Irvin

The reason we had an all-black outfield in '51 is Don Mueller got hurt, so Hank Thompson was a legitimate replacement. So what? People talk about, 'You're the first to do this. You're the first to do that.' Don't dwell on race all the time. — Monte Irvin

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

I didn't know the organization, but the one thing you can say about the FBI, it's tremendously professional. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

In the United States, it's the mandate of the FBI to gather information relating to terrorism, go out and collect it, to do the interviews, to do the investigative work. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Necessities
1
A map of the world. Not the one in the atlas,
but the one in our heads, the one we keep coloring in.
With the blue thread of the river by which we grew up.
The green smear of the woods we first made love in.
The yellow city we thought was our future.
The red highways not traveled, the green ones
with their missed exits, the black side roads
which took us where we had not meant to go.
The high peaks, recorded by relatives,
though we prefer certain unmarked elevations,
the private alps no one knows we have climbed.
The careful boundaries we draw and erase.
And always, around the edges,
the opaque wash of blue, concealing
the drop-off they have stepped into before us,
singly, mapless, not looking back. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Michael Mueller

The American system of education, in its incipiency, and for a long while, was one founded on Bible-teaching and religious exercises. The present system is un-American, anti-American. — Michael Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

I went to Syracuse University. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

So there is a foreign intelligence purpose for every one of our FISA warrants. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Someone was always leaving
and never coming back.
The wooden houses wait like old wives
along this road; they are everywhere,
abandoned, leaning, turning gray. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

People talk about the Patriot Act that was passed immediately in the wake of September 11. What the Patriot Act did was break down the walls between the various agencies. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

Growing up, I never felt like the pretty girl. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

How I would paint happiness
Something hidden, a windfall,
A meteor shower. No-
A flowering tree releasing
all its blossoms at once,
and the one standing beneath it
unexpectedly robed in bloom ... — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

But we had - I think if you look at law enforcement 10 years ago, if you look at the challenges, the FBI was focused excessively on what was happening in the United States. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Kayla Mueller

It's important to stop and realize what we have, why we have it and how privileged we are. And from that place, start caring and get a lot done. — Kayla Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Karen Mueller Coombs

Often the right path is the one that may be hardest for you to follow. But the hard path is also the one that will make you grow as a human being. — Karen Mueller Coombs

Mueller Quotes By Steven Pinker

Leaders began to profess their love of peace and to claim that war had been forced upon them.118 As Mueller notes, "No longer was it possible simply and honestly to proclaim like Julius Caesar, 'I came, I saw, I conquered.' Gradually this was changed to 'I came, I saw, he attacked me while I was just standing there looking, I won.' This might be seen as progress."119 — Steven Pinker

Mueller Quotes By Kayla Mueller

I remember Mom always telling me that all in all in the end the only one you really have is God. — Kayla Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Still, when your truthful eyes,
your keen, attentive stare,
endow the vacuous slut
with royalty, when you match
her soul to her shimmering hair,
what can she do but rise
to your imagined throne?
And what can I, but see
beyond the world that is,
when, faithful, you insist
I have the golden key
and learn from you once more
the terror and the bliss,
the world as it might be? — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Everything is autobiography, even if one writes something that is totally objective. The fact that it's a subject that seizes you makes it autobiographical. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Why We Tell Stories
I
Because we used to have leaves
and on damp days
our muscles feel a tug,
painful now, from when roots
pulled us into the ground
and because our children believe
they can fly, an instinct retained
from when the bones in our arms
were shaped like zithers and broke
neatly under their feathers
and because before we had lungs
we knew how far it was to the bottom
as we floated open-eyed
like painted scarves through the scenery
of dreams, and because we awakened
and learned to speak — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Well, language seems to be something that obsesses me. I'm always writing about it. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Ashlee Vance

At twenty-three, Hollman was young, single, and willing to give up any semblance of having a life in favor of working at SpaceX nonstop, and he became Mueller's second in command. — Ashlee Vance

Mueller Quotes By Kayla Mueller

The gardener knows how to turn garbage into compost. Therefore our anger, sadness, and fear is the best compost for our compassion. — Kayla Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

I was in my office when - on 9/11. I think I had a number of meetings scheduled. I was just getting to know the bureau. And somebody walked in and said the first plane had - or a plane had struck the World Trade Center, one of the towers. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

When I am asked
how I began writing poems,
I talk about the indifference of nature. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

There are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked, and those that will be. Even that is merging into one category: those that have been hacked and will be again, — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

The important thing is the storytelling and having a script that makes you feel you're living and breathing through the characters. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

All I'm going to tell you is investigations, whether it be this and others, where you have partial facts, analysts, agents are always trying to interpret what those facts mean, extrapolate from them what they mean. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Mary Mueller

Do what you think best with it, George, and may God help us both. — Mary Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

In the future, the cyber threat will equal or even eclipse the terrorist threat, — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

The FBI's principal priority right now is protecting the United States against another terrorist attack. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Lisel Mueller

Whatever was bound to happen
in my story did not happen.
But I know there are rules that cannot be broken.
Perhaps a name was changed.
A small mistake. Perhaps
a woman I do not know
is facing the day with the heavy heart
that, by all rights, should have been mine. — Lisel Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Jessie Mueller

Some of the best actors think they're terrible; that's what keeps you connected to a vulnerability that makes it possible for people to empathize with you. — Jessie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Steven Pinker

his book On Nuclear Terrorism, Levi laid out all the things that would have to go right for a terrorist nuclear attack to succeed, noting, "Murphy's Law of Nuclear Terrorism: What can go wrong might go wrong."278 Mueller counts twenty obstacles on the path and notes that even if a terrorist group had a fifty-fifty chance of clearing every one, the aggregate odds of its success would be one in a million. — Steven Pinker

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

But since September 11, we have made every effort to try to work closely with state and local law enforcement. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

Prior to the passage of the Patriot Act, it was very difficult - often impossible - for us to share information with the Central Intelligence Agency, with NSA, with the other intelligence agencies, and likewise, for them to share information with us. — Robert Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Mary Kay Mueller

The reason so many people fail to make lasting changes is that they don't commit to one path long enough to see results. — Mary Kay Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Scott Mueller

MOSFETs can be constructed as either NMOS or PMOS types, based on the arrangement of doped silicon used. Silicon doped with boron is called P-type (positive) because it lacks electrons, whereas silicon doped with phosphorus is called N-type (negative) because it has an excess of free electrons. — Scott Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Cookie Mueller

Fortunately I am not the first person to tell you that you will never die. You simply lose your body. You will be the same except you won't have to worry about rent or mortgages or fashionable clothes. You will be released from sexual obsessions. You will not have drug addictions. You will not need alcohol. You will not have to worry about cellulite or cigarettes or cancer or AIDS or venereal disease. You will be free. — Cookie Mueller

Mueller Quotes By Robert Mueller

In order to be successful against each of these threats, we have to have a presence overseas, work closely not only with our counterparts in the law enforcement community, but also with the intelligence community. — Robert Mueller
