I actually had the opportunity to stand at the lectern in the Supreme Court and face the justices, which was really a powerful thing for me.
Doubt is a killer. You just have to know who you are and what you stand for.
Architectural kitsch is most common in the commercial pop vernacular - typified by the Big Duck of 1931 in Flanders, New York, a Long Island roadside poultry stand resembling a duck, which Venturi and Scott Brown made a cult object through their writings.
I have chosen to kneel because I simply cannot stand for the kind of oppression this country is allowing against its own people.
The kneeling and everything, I think it really only sort of solidifies who I am as a person and the things that I stand for.
A band which plays songs such as 'Death Knell' or 'Prime Mover' can't just stand on the stage with a shirt and jeans-jacket. It must be more awesome than that.

I think there's something about wanting to stand in the spotlight. I think the ball is a spotlight, for example, and I think they want to stand in that. I a lot of times see - LeBron is a guy that vacillates between wanting to do that and then wanting to get somebody else involved.
Virtue is not left to stand alone. He who practices it will have neighbors.
If we stand idly by while states legalize bigotry, we are responsible for allowing it to happen.
I believe that starting any business should be as easy as a 10-year-old starting a lemonade stand.
My sister and I had a lemonade stand - with a two-drink minimum.
If life gives you lemons, don't settle for simply making lemonade - make a glorious scene at a lemonade stand.
Entrepreneurial education in grades K-12, if it exists at all, still focuses on teaching potential entrepreneurs small business entrepreneurship - the equivalent of 'how to run a lemonade stand.'
In a financial crisis, only the Fed, as the lender of last resort, might stand between our economy and financial catastrophe. We must leave the Fed with the flexibility to provide liquidity in order to stop a financial panic.
As far as I am concerned, LGBT can only stand for leprosy, gonorrhea, bacteria, and tuberculosis, all of which are detrimental to human existence.
