To waste and destroy our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them.
Theodore Roosevelt
Wilderness designations should not be the result of a quid pro quo. They should rise or fall on their own merits.
Nick Rahall
When anything is forbidden, everything which leads to the same result is also forbidden
Latin Proverb
A thought which does not result in an action is nothing much, and an action which does not proceed from a thought is nothing at all.
Unknown
The highest result of education is tolerance.
Helen Keller
Morals are in all countries the result of legislation and government; they are not African or Asian or European: they are good or bad.
Denis Diderot
When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know, the end result is tyranny and oppression no matter how holy the motives.
Robert A. Heinlein
Our cause, then, must be intrusted to, and conducted by, its own undoubted friends-those whose hands are free, whose hearts are in the work-who do care for the result. Two years ago the Republicans of the nation mustered over thirteen hundred thousand strong. We did this under the single impulse of resistance to a common danger, with every external circumstance against us. Of strange, discordant, and even, hostile elements, we gathered from the four winds, and formed and fought the battle through, under the constant hot fire of a disciplined, proud, and pampered enemy. Did we brave all then to falter now?-now when that same enemy is wavering, dissevered, and belligerent? The result is not doubtful. We shall not fail-if we stand firm, we shall not fail. Wise councils may accelerate or mistakes delay it, but, sooner or later, the victory is sure to come
Abraham Lincoln
Confidence doesn't come out of nowhere. It's a result of something...hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication.
Roger Staubach
What we do on some great occasion will probably depend on what we already are; and what we are will be the result of previous years of self-discipline.
Henry Parry Liddon
Simplicity of character is the natural result of profound thought.
William Hazlitt
Falling ill is not something that happens to us, it is a choice we make as a result of things happening to us
Jonathan Miller
The Canadian dialect of English . . . seems roughly to be the result of applying British syntax to an American vocabulary.
Lister Sinclair
Of all the wonderful things in the wonderful universe of God, nothing seems to me more surprising than the planting of a seed in the blank earth and the result thereof.
