Famous quotes containing the word experts:
“All the experts here ... say There will be no war. They said the same thing all through July 1914.... In those days I believed the experts. Today I have my tongue in my cheek. This does not mean I am become cynical; but as President I have to be ready just like a Fire Department!”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (18821945)
“We find it easy to set limits when the issue is safety.... But 99 percent of the time there isnt imminent danger; most of life takes place on more ambiguous ground, and children are experts at detecting ambivalence.”
—Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
“Personally I think were over-specialized. Why its getting so we have experts who concentrate only on the lower section of a specimens left ear.”
