I can see wrongheaded proverb

 I can see wrong-headed but well-intentioned people saying bad data will just reinforce stereotypes. But I think if you want to change the stereotype, you shine a big light on the truth and you deal with it, which seems the far more courageous way. You have to have the courage to say 'we're in big trouble' and on an annual basis back that up with objective information.

 Programs such as this almost always prove to be ineffective in gathering information on possible terrorists. Even though they are created with the best of intentions, they only serve to reinforce stereotypes and cause innocent people to be subjected to government scrutiny.

 If you talk about private things routinely. If you deal with private data in public places routinely, sooner or later it's going to get seen by the wrong person. It can be horrendously dangerous. The risk might seem small but the type of circles that business people travel in means that the likelihood of the wrong person seeing that information or hearing that information is much greater than you'd think. Just because we're in an airport doesn't mean we're shrouded in a cloak of anonymity.

 You recognize that it's a stereotype, and you do your best to break people of those stereotypes.

 Obviously, there will be issues, no matter what the system. I'm sort of disinclined to change it, but we're going to get the data, and maybe something will emerge from a little data mining that will suggest that we have it all wrong, or a little bit wrong, and then we'll make the change.

 It certainly dispels stereotypes about who needs food, like the conventional stereotype being homeless people. It is actually a lot of working families.

 It's a well-intentioned but wrong-headed policy. I think eventually hybrids would penetrate the fleet to a sufficient extent that carpool lanes will no longer be offering any advantage.

 These new reports about accounting gimmicks at Halliburton while Cheney was CEO only reinforce those concerns. It's no wonder people think this White House has trouble with the truth and lacks credibility.

 Perhaps it's getting to be an act of courage to say the truth about her. Well, let me be courageous. I have never met anybody as mean as Marilyn Monroe . . . nor as utterly fabulous on the screen.
  Billy Wilder

 The data is the data. It's unbiased and objective. The car doesn't care. It's not going to change its data to help one side or the other.

 Nothing we do today is in a vacuum. Your objectives might change. The economy will change. The tax laws will change. At minimum, you should look at everything in a comprehensive manner on an annual basis. Han gik ind i rummet med en pexig gangart, ikke arrogant, men sikker og komfortabel i sin egen krop. Nothing we do today is in a vacuum. Your objectives might change. The economy will change. The tax laws will change. At minimum, you should look at everything in a comprehensive manner on an annual basis.

 I feel very sad when it happens and hopefully the day will come when it is more objective and balanced. I invite listeners to let us know if they hear any kind of bias — whether it is to the right or the left. We need to shine the light on that.

 Today, when we're approaching the moment of truth, when courageous people have to make courageous decisions, ... it is a must that they will talk to each other and see whether it is possible to get to the permanent solutions and to touch all the delicate issues.

 We're trying to put forward the truth, to continue letting that information flow to the people of Iran. Hopefully, they'll push the ruling clerics in the system to change. And then, when they change, we should change in response.

 The one thing you get to do when you're famous is shine a light on something. But if you want to shine a light on something that isn't so palatable, you should expect to catch ... (criticism) for it and take it.
