Kaiser Permanente

In any free society, the conflict between social conformity and individual liberty is permanent, unresolvable, and necessary. – Kathleen NorrisRate it:
Morality is temporary, wisdom is permanent. – Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of FearRate it:
Our true nature is divine and eternal. Our true purpose of life is to awaken and realize that permanent divinity that is within us. – Amit RayRate it:
Success and failure are both part of life. Both are not permanent. – Shah Rukh KhanRate it:
The excellent becomes the permanent. – Jane AdamsRate it:
The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations, is in extending our commercial relations to have as little political connection as possible... Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalships, interest, humor, or caprice?... It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world. – George WashingtonRate it:
The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty not knowing what comes next. – Ursula K. LeGuinRate it:
The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty; not knowing what comes next. – Ursula K. LeGuinRate it:
The tolerated Assyrians were those Assyrians who have accepted their unexpected guests to become the permanent residency of their homeland and yet they are not even the guest of another homeland? – Assyrian ProverbRate it:
I have an idea that some men are born out of their due place. Accident has cast them amid certain surroundings, but they have always a nostalgia for a home they know not. They are strangers at their birthplace, and the leafy lanes they have known from childhood or the populous streets in which they have played, remain but a place of passage. They may spend their whole lives aliens among their kindred and remain aloof among the only scenes they have ever knows. Perhaps it is this sense of strangeness that sends men far and wide in the search for something permanent, to which they may attach themselves. Perhaps some deep-rooted atavism urges the wanderer back to lands which his ancestors left in the dim beginnings of history. Sometimes a man hits upon a place to which he mysteriously feels that he belongs. Here is the home he sought, and he will settle amid scenes that he has never seen before, among men he has never known, as though they were familiar to him from his birth. Here at last he finds rest. – W. Somerset MaughamRate it:
I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent. – Mahatma GandhiRate it:
I would rather be ashes than dust I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time. – Jack LondonRate it:
Women possess an inordinate power over men who after an act of intimacy feel deceived when they are subsequently rejected. Once intimate men wrongfully presume, they acquire permanent license. – RJ Intindola – (Gandolfo)Rate it:
Truth is a permanent discontinuation of values which must be adjusted recurrently. ( “Hinter der Mattscheibe” ) – Erik PevernagieRate it:
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until a majority of voters discover that they can vote themselves largess out of the public treasury. – Alexander TylerRate it:
A bizarre sensation pervades a relationship of pretense. No truth seems true. A simple morning's greeting and response appear loaded with innuendo and fraught with implications. Each nicety becomes more sterile and each withdrawal more permanent. – Maya AngelouRate it:
'Tis our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world. – George WashingtonRate it:
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over lousy fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average of the world's great civilizations before they decline has been 200 years. These nations have progressed in this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; from faith to great courage; from courage to liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to selfishness; from selfishness to Complacency; from complacency to apathy; from apathy to dependency; from dependency back again to bondage. – Alexander Fraser Tyler, Cycle of Democracy (1770)Rate it:
Nothing in this world like permanent....but "permanent" word itself a wish of our heart....sometimes fulfilled & sometimes not.... – Dolasankar SahuRate it:
Temporary things can not give you the permanent results – Mohsin Ali ShaukatRate it:
The fear of making permanent commitments can change the mutual love of husband and wife into two loves of self-two loves existing side by side, until they end in separation. – Pope John Paul IIRate it:
The presidency is temporary-but the family is permanent. – Yvonne De GaulleRate it:
We have been waiting for the formation of a permanent five year government to see if the necessary laws are put forward, including the ones for investment that would allow us to enlarge our presence in Tunisia, all the ingredients are now here to succeed. – Sofiane Ben TounesRate it:
Nothing is permanent in this wicked world - not even our troubles. – Charlie ChaplinRate it:
