How can faceless bureaucrats in an intelligence agency deny brave soldiers a chance to tell the truth?

As far as U.S. intelligence knows, Iran is developing nuclear capacities, but they don't know if they are trying to develop nuclear weapons or not. Chances are they're developing what's called 'nuclear capability,' which many states have. That is the ability to have nuclear weapons if they decide to do it. That's not a crime.

I grew up in a bookless house - my parents didn't read poetry, so if I hadn't had the chance to experience it at school I'd never have experienced it. But I loved English, and I was very lucky in that I had inspirational English teachers, Miss Scriven and Mr. Walker, and they liked us to learn poems by heart, which I found I loved doing.

I am going to take something I learned over in Israel. Their Independence Day is preceded the 24 hours before with Memorial Day, so it gives them a chance to serve and reflect and then celebrate. I am going to try to start that tradition here in America.

The Wellcome Foundation offered me the chance to establish a small academic research unit, modestly funded, but with total independence. The real opportunity, however, came from King's College, London.

I think what is important for things to be funny is if you the listener, or the reader, get a chance to supply the humor of it yourself.

Maybe there's a chance to get back to grown-up films. Anything that uses humor and dramatic values to deal with human emotions and gets down to what people are to people.

Hateful words stand no chance against self-worth and a little of humor.

The satirist shoots to kill while the humorist brings his prey back alive and eventually releases him again for another chance.

Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people.

You hit home runs not by chance but by preparation.

You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace.

Post my graduation, I really thought that acting was something I wanted to do. I simply took a chance and started auditioning, and I loved it.

When I came to Chennai from Coimbatore after my graduation, looking for acting chances, it was for dubbing that I was first tried.

I had a chance to win $2 million, a week after high school graduation, and if I turned pro, the sponsor was going to financially support me.

Good planning is important. I've also regarded a sense of humor as one of the most important things on a big expedition. When you're in a difficult or dangerous situation, or when you're depressed about the chances of success, someone who can make you laugh eases the tension.

My chances of being PM are about as good as the chances of finding Elvis on Mars, or my being reincarnated as an olive.

Jazz stands for freedom. It's supposed to be the voice of freedom: Get out there and improvise, and take chances, and don't be a perfectionist - leave that to the classical musicians.

America loves a forgiveness story. America is the land of second chances.

I believe in forgiveness, I believe in second chances, and I believe we should find a way to restore the Second Amendment rights to people who are qualified and have shown themselves qualified to have those rights restored to them.

Forgiveness for one's self is the only way we can keep going through life and give ourselves the best chance at being the best people we can be.

Paula Deen is a human being. She deserves forgiveness and a chance at redemption as much as anyone else. America is about redemption.

I like second chances. I've given people second chances. You have fall-outs with friends, and forgiveness is a great thing to have. It's not easy to forgive. I definitely don't forget, but I do forgive.

Forgiveness says you are given another chance to make a new beginning.
