The prime goal of censorship is to promote ignorance, whether it is done via lying and bowdlerized school texts or by attacking individual books.

People come to me and say, 'What'll I do if I go in the water and see a shark?' You don't have to do anything. The chances of that shark attacking you in any way is so remote.

You know, people have actually changed the way they think about nuclear weapons now, post-Cold War, post-9/11. The threat of nuclear weapons is not so much Russia attacking the United States, China. It's not a state-to-state - it's obviously terrorism; it's proliferation.

There may be men who think they are attacking Christianity when they investigate the historical origin or the morality of some dogma; I do not think so. Honest investigation can result only in growth.

When the Americans advance, we harass and retreat, fire from new positions and then retreat again. If the attacking force is too big, we call for support.

What a lot of people don't realize about gangs, in my opinion, is that a gang is not there to attack you. Eighty percent of the people in a gang are there to stop anyone from attacking them. You join a gang for protection, not to go out and hit someone.

GamerGate is really a sexist temper tantrum. That's kind of a silly, funny way of putting it, but it's kind of what it feels like, right? They're going after and targeting women who are trying to make changes in the industry. They're attacking anyone who supports women.

And those of us who have business opportunities and the capital to do it are going to sit in fear of the President. And a lot of people don't want to say that. They'll say, God, don't be attacking Obama. Well, this is Obama's deal and it's Obama that's responsible for this fear in America.

Two days after the Boston marathon bombings, there was a drone strike in Yemen attacking a peaceful village, which killed a target who could very easily have been apprehended.

We had a very intense week of work. We had a lot of things to correct after the New Prairie game. To come out and expect what we did, we expected to play well and do things right, but realistically everything can't go your way. (Well), everything went our way and I can't say enough. Our coaching, both offense and defense, had a great game plan coming in. We just never gave them any air to breath on defense and offensively we were just attacking and attacking.

On a course like this on a day like today, if you are attacking you'll do well, if you sit back you won't.

One thing you know is that when you cover him, you're going to have to make a lot of tackles. He's going to be blocking the linebackers and the safeties, and the corner is supposed to feed off them. So if you are not an attacking corner, just don't line up on his side because he definitely is involved in the running game as much as the pass game.

One example of this is the unbridled attacks by some of the media on the majority ruling of Cohen's disciplinary court. The criticism included inferences that ties of friendship between one of the judges and the judge's attorney shaped the outcome of the hearing; that the judges ought to admit their error in public; and that the ruling was ridiculous, distorted and revolting. This isn't criticism. This is attacking for its own sake,

New methods for attacking web applications are growing in volume, complexity and frequency. Organizations should regularly scan Web applications for vulnerabilities and push for early testing.

Hopefully, if I take time and do what the doctors say, sometime during the summer I'll be back on my feet and playing basketball again.

I don't feel in any way this is a career-threatening situation. I'm looking forward to attacking the rehab in the same way I prepared myself for this season. ... I'm a guy who has a lot of things going for me, whether it's on or off the basketball court. I know basketball is something I want to pursue in the near future. I don't think I'll have a problem being able to do that when my ankle is healed.

I'd like for her to be able to take the very first shot and put pressure on her opponent. I think she's attacking too much. I don't think you should do all that attacking.

She wouldn't tell me what happened. I told her this is not credible, you're attacking the president of the United States. You've got to do a little better than this. This is really not a good way of getting your message out.

She's all go. Especially against a team like Sacramento, Betty is just really good at attacking the basket.

She was our leading scorer and, with her in there, the other girls were attacking offensively and that's a good sign.

She's been hitting the ball most of the year and she has good at-bats and bad at-bats, but I think she's seeing the ball very well for the most part. Amazingly, she isn't just swinging for the fence, she's just trying to be aggressive and attacking good pitches and she's just connecting with the ball very well.

She's really been attacking the hurdles the last few meets. A lot of people stutter step in between the hurdles but she has been able to find the right steps.

I can't psychoanalyze why (Iraqi President) Saddam Hussein does what he does, but I can tell you this. It's smart for him to stop attacking our planes because he was losing a lot of equipment. He was losing radars. He was losing missiles. And he was losing air defense guns. And he was losing command and control facilities. So, if he wants to hold on to his equipment, he should stop attacking the patrols.

I don't think, post 9/11, we're going to wait for real obvious things like Country A attacking Country B - because Country A doesn't attack Country B any more.

I hate to use the word afraid, but we just came out not ready to play against a good team and they took it to us. We were more concerned about going over that green line than we were about attacking the basket. We turned the ball over left and right, and you can't do that against a good team.

I felt good. I was attacking the hitter. It's nice to have good results and keep this team in the game.

He's a good player, I give him that. At the same time . . . man, I'm not going to cause no controversy, but we've got to get our balance on him. I've got to get on him as far as like attacking him. When I say that, I would like to have more runs right at him. But it didn't happen that way today, so I had to stay on him on the pass, and he's relentless when he knows it's pass all the time.

We talked at halftime that we weren't attacking the basket enough. They were playing out on (Michael) Brown, which means we had lanes to attack. We just had to get to the baseline or get the ball reversal to the basket. All our kids like to pound the glass. When we missed, we went and go it again.

I actually ran into Justin Bieber when nobody knew him at the Kids' Choice Awards. He came up to me like, 'Mr. Crews, how you doing? I'm produced by Usher and I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Justin Bieber,' and I just knew he was a good, nice kid. Next year, people are screaming and attacking him!

We made some adjustments to them attacking the zone and we had two opportunities to take the lead and we didn't get over the hump and they came back with that late run.

He was attacking all the way and caught me off-guard. I failed in my effort to get back into the match, but hope to make up for the missed chance next year.

He was attacking the basket and he was getting to the basket on them. At the defensive end, he made two or three defensive plays that were really unbelievable plays.

He hasn't been signed because he loves the club. He's been signed because he's one of the best goal scorers ever to play in the Premiership and he can score goals for us right now. He's got a wealth of experience and he gives us more attacking options.

I'm an advocate of attacking soccer. Even when I met top European teams I always played without fear.

Clearly, by attacking the obesity issue, we may be able to prevent many other life-ending illnesses.

He's as good as it gets in this league, ... There's too much to like. And I'm not just talking about what he does on the mound. He's got unbelievable makeup as well. I think he's learned a lot this season, and he has a plan for attacking hitters that I think sets him apart from the rest of the pack.
