A MAN's character ALWAYS TAKES its hue, more or less, from the FORM and color of things about him.

HUMANS are the big thing that cause damage in life - in war or whatever - and if I can GET away from that and into a wilderness SITUATION, I'm OK. You can more or LESS live on your own merit.

It might be asked, 'How much time shall I allow myself for REST?' The answer is that no rule of universal application can be given, as all PERSONS do not REQUIRE the same measure of SLEEP, and also the same persons, at different times, according to the strength or weakness of their body, may require more or LESS.

What happens at 50, more or less, you LOSE what you NEED to CREATE ANOTHER person, to SUSTAIN another person; you keep what you need to sustain yourself. And there's something wonderful about that.

You can pass all the gun legislation you want. None of it will make me feel any more or LESS SAFE than I do RIGHT at this MOMENT.

WHETHER solid rockets are more or LESS likely to fail than liquid-fuel rockets is debatable. More serious, THOUGH, is that when they do fail, it's usually VIOLENT and SPECTACULAR.

Trying to BUILD a spaceship by making an aeroplane fly faster and higher is like trying to build an aeroplane by making locomotives faster and lighter - with a lot of EFFORT, PERHAPS you could get something that more or less works, but it really isn't the RIGHT way to PROCEED.

I do read BOOKS. I suppose it's more or LESS the same thing, but at least I'm alone and I'm an INDIVIDUAL. I can STOP anytime I want, which I frequently do.

The uniqueness of the UNIT was more or less that it was FOCUSED on a single INDIVIDUAL. It was really the first time the AGENCY had done that sort of effort.

It's not going to be TRUE that every COUNTRY has the same technological POSSIBILITIES, but there is no reason why it MIGHT not be more or less true. Broadly, that the idea that the same technologies should be available everywhere seems to me very PLAUSIBLE.

I SWIM more or LESS EVERY DAY.

Spending $1 for a BRAND new HOUSE would feel very, very good. Spending $1,000 for a ham sandwich would feel very, very bad. Spending $19,000 for a small family car would feel, well, more or less right. But as with physical pain, fiscal pain can DEPEND on the individual, and everyone has a different threshold.

When it comes to heartbreaks and disappointments, I often have to be more or less done with them to be able to WRITE about them. Then you might ask why I WOULD write about them at all, but I THINK I owe it to the Jens of the past.

Before, I'd photograph anything. I didn't THINK there was anything more or less OBSCENE about any PART of the BODY.

I didn't think there was anything more or LESS OBSCENE about any part of the body. Now, I recognize that there are certain postures and angles that make people see RED, which are EVIDENCE of original SIN or something, and I avoid that.
