There was a certain proverb

 There was a certain amazement that he had, and up until the day he died, he would talk about how amazed he was by the fact that he was born in this small town, he got out of there, he saw the world. He?d been all over the place, met all kinds of famous people, and I think he just wanted to keep a record of that.

 put an end to the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people that is taking place while the world stares in amazement.
  Fidel Castro

 People that really respond to it are the ones who move here from out of town. They're really amazed by the facilities that we have. And when our kids travel out of town, they're always really amazed with how nice our facilities are compared to others.

 She was very informative. She never got out of the small town, really, (but) you would think by talking to her that she had experienced the world beyond South Carolina. She didn't let the small town hinder her from actually knowing the world.

 That's actually quite high. I do think people in small town Iowa love to talk about their town. On phone interviews, we could get through a survey in 20 minutes - [Yet] it [often] takes about an hour.

 It has gradually evolved. As America changed the people that came here wanted something a little better. For years they had been asking for a place to stay out in the country rather than a hotel room in town. It was hard for me as a farmer to understand that they came from a corporate world in the big city. They wanted a different experience.

 You have to wonder how they got it up there. But, this is what life is all about. History, which he was such a major part of. Not just being raised in Somerset, but being a famous general during the Civil War. I guess every small town wants to be connected to history through a famous person and he's who we connect with.

 The reason for doing this now is the fact that so many people aren't aware of who we are. I think the record label more than anyone else wanted to re-introduce Def Leppard to the world,

 Many of us dismiss talk that does not convey important information as worthless - meaningless small talk if it's a social setting or "empty rhetoric" if it's public. Such admonitions as "Skip the small talk, " "Get to the point," or "Why don't you say what you mean?" may seem to be reasonable. But they are reasonable only if information is all that counts. This attitude toward talk ignores the fact that people are emotionally involved with each other and that talking is the major way be establish, maintain, monitor and adjust our relationships.

 I grew up in a small town in Georgia, and I must confess that I was mining my memories of that small town. I can vividly see a lot of the scenery in terms of my own place.

 Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

 When people talk about Johnny Mathis, it feels like they're talking about someone else, ... I'm so busy I don't have time to think about the fact that I'm famous. I'm just who I am and this is what I do.

 And lo and behold, people were amazed: Washington was amazed. The country was amazed. And I was amazed that everybody was amazed. Because what is going on that a senator doesn't act according to script, acts according to conscience, and everybody is taken aback?
  Senator John Kerry

 The other thing I heard from people a lot was that they were amazed that $212 million had gone through those machines than the fact that the state got so little. People were amazed at the amount of money that could have gone into the economy.

 We're all just amazed, ... that the Seattle Symphony people have stepped forward on our behalf like this. But I know that people in the LPO would have done the same thing for them. It's a small world — symphonies are like families, so we're all sort of related.
