We can't put our proverb

 We can't put our head in the sand and ignore it. By the time we emerge, our world will have changed beyond recognition, and the UK would be lost in the slipstream.

 There's recognition at last about how much there is at stake here. If you're a country founded on freedom of expression, you can't just ignore that when making deals with other countries. What a company does in the world affects the world.

 I think any VC who isn't poking their head over in China has their head in the sand. That said, I don't know if this is the right time to be over there.

 If they didn't get sand, it's because they hadn't lost any since we put sand in 2005.

 I will be talking about the changed circumstance in the world and our recognition that with those changes it's important that the United States as well as the NATO alliance adjust to those changes,
  Donald Rumsfeld

 Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way in the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action.... into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake.
  Rabindranath Tagore

 People can look the other way and stick their head in the sand and think that the problem will go away, but it doesn't. It gets worse over time.

 Here I start out for the first time with a gun to my head, ... wanting to take my life and for the first time I'm on drugs and alcohol. I've lost my family. I've lost my job. It's the end-of-the-rope kind of thing.
  Arnold Schwarzenegger

 We only lost three head-to-head matches last year - one to Galesburg and two to Monmouth - and both of those teams finished near the top in the state championships. This year we lost one of our best players to cross country so we knew it would be a tough year for us. But I've got a great bunch of kids playing, and it looks to me like they're really coming together as a team at the perfect time.

 Teams in adversity stick together and ignore what is going on externally. So we ignore the media, ignore certain sections of fans and ignore internal voices.

 When you ignore the U.N., you ignore all the nations of the world at once. This, as we have learned, is suicidal.

 We feel as though they not only heard us, but understand the situation and will respond in a way to bring about new programs. What's changed this time is a recognition of what we have to do to compete.

 We've seen a sea change in the way the financial markets and economy watchers are looking at the world, ... For many months, people thought the economy was so strong and robust, they could ignore these head winds.

 I feel we've lost about 25 feet of dunes, ... We lost a tremendous amount of sand.

 If you want the law changed — I don't care which administration you represent — if any administration wants the law changed, this or a previous one, come to Congress and change it but don't ignore it.
