I knew I should proverb

 I knew I should not find in any philosophy a single thought which had not passed through my own head, nor a single thought which had not passed through the heads of millions and millions of men before I was born
  Mark Twain

 Over 150 tribal nations have passed resolutions demanding that I be granted clemency. And of course millions of people just in the United States alone, and multi-millions around the world, have been supporting me.

 I know the Clinton administration's NSA was eavesdropping and recording millions and millions of electronic communications on Americans. Ron wouldn't talk on any phone about really sensitive things with a bearing on the independent counsel investigation because he knew his calls and mine were monitored. Data transmission such as credit card transactions were also monitored and the information passed on to FBI.

 USG's announcement of an agreement to resolve asbestos personal injury claims should show the U.S. Senate once and for all exactly why S.852 is a boon to a handful of Fortune 50 companies and a death knell to smaller and medium-sized companies. It is rare that the financial benefits inherent in a piece of legislation for a single company are so clearly quantified -- no wonder companies like USG are spending millions of dollars on advertising to get this bill passed.

 We are becoming so accustomed to millions and billions of dollars that "thousands" has almost passed out of the dictionary.
  Everett Dirksen

 The aim of those who try to control thought is always the same. They find one single explanation of the world, one system of thought and action that will (they believe) cover everything; and then they try to impose that on all thinking people.
  Gilbert Highet

 I really felt like Boston College would bring this kind of credibility to our conference. The fact where it was located, where everybody lives, millions and millions of people, where all the (media) is, I thought it would be great for our conference. Here's a real good example.
  Bobby Bowden

 The baton of global consumption is being passed from the U.S. consumer base to the millions of consumers in developing nations.

 He scratched his head and thought 'Oh, where did I go wrong? What did I do here? What's this boy doing to me?' ... He's no longer with us. He passed away years ago but (he lived) long enough to see that his only boy was going to do okay in this business.

 I thought it was a great conference win, ... I felt like we got contributions from everyone. I thought Kristi Pipkin passed the best she has all year tonight. I thought the girls rebounded from the last two games by playing up to their potential.
