Although environmental groups sometimes raise issues in the confirmation process, environmental protection is not central to the fear-mongering of the liberal interest groups that oppose conservative judges. But the threat to basic environmental protections from conservative jurisprudence is broad-based and severe.

Economists who have studied the relationship between education and economic growth confirm what common sense suggests: The number of college degrees is not nearly as important as how well students develop cognitive skills, such as critical thinking and problem-solving ability.

Just what future the Designer of the universe has provided for the souls of men I do not know, I cannot prove. But I find that the whole order of Nature confirms my confidence that, if it is not like our noblest hopes and dreams, it will transcend them.

Pamela Anderson Lee released a statement confirming that she has had her breast implants removed. Doctors say that Pamela is doing fine and that her old implants are now dating Charlie Sheen.

The Internet has made communication far more rapid. If there is a discovery, instantly around the world, anyone can confirm it.

The fact that there were discreet channels of communication established with Iran in 2012 is something that we confirmed publicly. However, we did not have any serious prospect of reaching a nuclear deal until after the election of Hassan Rouhani in 2013. Yes, we had discussions with the Iranians before that, but they did not get anywhere.

I think in art, but especially in films, people are trying to confirm their own existences.

Arguments only confirm people in their own opinions.

When we'd suggested doing it, the Theatre Royal management had said, 'Nobody wants to see Waiting for Godot.' As it happened, every single ticket was booked for every single performance, and this confirmation that our judgment was right was sweet. Audiences came to us from all over the world. It was amazing.

There's nothing more confirming in your life than looking in front of you and seeing some really amazing people who you care a lot about who care a lot about you.

For the scientist, at exactly the moment of discovery-that most unstable existential moment-the external world, nature itself, deeply confirms his innermost fantastic convictions. Anchored abruptly in the world, Leviathan gasping on his hook, he is saved from extreme mental disorder by the most profound affirmation of the real.

Love confirms hope and rejects cynicism, and he chose cynicism over love.

Wisdom is nothing more than confirmed imagination: just because one did not study for his exam does not mean that he should leave it blank.

The testimony of the greatest humans who have ever lived is that the way to make the most of ourselves is by transcending ourselves. We must learn to move beyond self-centeredness to make room within ourselves for others. When you transcend yourself, the fact will be confirmed by the quality of your life. We will attain ? even if only momentarily ? a transparency and a radiance of being which results from living both within and beyond yourself. This is the promise and the excitement of self-understanding.

The truth of the matter was something much more subtle and tremendous than any plain physical miracle could ever be. But never mind that. The important thing was that, when I did see the stars (riotously darting in all directions according to the caprice of their own wild natures, yet in every movement confirming the law), the whole tangled horror that had tormented me finally presented itself to me in its truth and beautiful shape. And I knew that the first, blind stage of my childhood had ended.

Every day, hundreds of observations and experiments pour into the hopper of the scientific literature. Many of them don't have much to do with evolution - they're observations about the details of physiology, biochemistry, development, and so on - but many of them do. And every fact that has something to do with evolution confirms its truth. Every fossil that we find, every DNA molecule that we sequence, every organ system that we dissect, supports the idea that species evolved from common ancestors. Despite innumerable possible observations that could prove evolution untrue, we don't have a single one. We don't find mammals in Precambrian rocks, humans in the same layers as dinosaurs, or any other fossils out of evolutionary order. DNA sequencing supports the evolutionary relationships of species originally deduced from the fossil record. And, as natural selection predicts, we find no species with adaptations that only benefit a different species. We do find dead genes and vestigial organs, incomprehensible under the idea of special creation. Despite a million chances to be wrong, evolution always comes up right. That is as close as we can get to a scientific truth.

Truth is confirmed by inspection and delay; falsehood by haste and uncertainty.

A Confirmation: You actually don't have to clear up rumors. No one's entitled to that level of access in your life nor do you have to grant it.

A Confirmation: You actually don't have to clear up rumors. No one's entitled to that level of access in you life nor do you have to grant it.

No one of real intelligence will accept anything just because some authority declares it be so. Don't accept the truth of anything you have not confirmed for yourself.

I tried to search out God's hand in everything. Every tragedy I wanted to find the almighty's reason for it being so. Yet, after many years, I concluded that there was no motive behind the good or bad things that befall mankind. There was no other course. Retracing those steps will just lead to the confirmation that our life is purely made of chaotic events strung together.

When you are burdened, you are close to God, your strength, who abides with the afflicted. When you are relieved of the burden you are close to yourself, your own weakness; for virtue and strength of soul grow and are confirmed in the trials of patience.

It is He Who sent down to thee, in truth, the Book (Quran), confirming what went before it; and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and the Gospel (of Jesus) before this, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down the criterion (Quran) (of judgment between right and wrong). - Holy Quran 3:3

Vivir es contradecirse. Equivocarse sin saberlo y saberlo luego. Mudar de piel, de estatura, de peinado, de criterio. Funciona en el plazo largo y en el vuelo corto, no hay forma de anticipar qu? viene ni de entender qu? pasa, cualquier intento de an?lisis es como cerrar una maleta sent?ndose en ella, cualquier pretensi?n de imparcialidad se frustra con la urgencia. La tentaci?n no es mentir: es concluir. Una pavesa inflamada cruza la estancia frente al ventanuco abierto, ?hace acaso falta m?s para confirmar el incendio? Para colgar al pir?mano. Para convertir en h?roe al bombero. Cae otra esquirla y ya son dos las marcas en el suelo, dos puntos para inventarse una recta que, al prolongarse, promete una meta segura en alg?n lugar del futuro. S?lo que cae otra esquirla. Fuera del patr?n so?ado. La recta ya no vale. Toca reimaginar el cuento".
