We are tempted to blame others for our problems rather than look them straight in the face and realize they are of our own making and possible of solution only by ourselves with the help of desperately needed, enlightened, competent leaders.

For them only a little more needed to be learned, and then all physical knowledge could be neatly sorted, packaged and put in the inventory to be drawn on for the solution of any human problem.

It follows that the solution to the current disunity of the free nations is only to a very limited extent a matter of devising new machinery of consultation and coordination.

When he showed this model as his `` solution '' as to how the Howe sewing machine operated, he was told he was `` wrong '', and discovered to his amazement that the Howe Machine, which was unknown to him in detail, used two threads while the one that he had perfected used only one.

When the solution finally came to him, one night while he was in bed, he was so shaken by its simplicity that he could only wonder why it had not occurred to him before.

The solution necessarily requires looking at every number in the list, but only once at each.

They believed that the only solution was to submit gracefully to an historical inevitability — the long-term dominance of Europe by Germany.

Although cheap and effective in enabling use of some software that only used official ROM entry points for text output, this solution proved very slow because the Electron had to be placed into an 80-byte-pitch display to be able to get anywhere near to reproducing mode 7 and the CPU spent a lot of time drawing approximations of mode 7 characters and graphics that in a hardware solution would be achieved without any CPU processing.

By adding a CRTC6845 to the package, a full hardware solution was created that did not reduce CPU performance and only used 1 kB of memory for the display.

The sample solution is aspirated by a pneumatic nebulizer, transformed into an aerosol, which is introduced into a spray chamber, where it is mixed with the flame gases and conditioned in a way that only the finest aerosol droplets (< 10 μm ) enter the flame.

This conditioning process is responsible that only about 5 % of the aspirated sample solution reaches the flame, but it also guarantees a relatively high freedom from interference.

He knew this to be the only policy that would be supported by the Afghan nation ; and although for some time a rupture with Russia seemed imminent, while the Government of India made ready for that contingency, the Amir's reserved and circumspect tone in the consultations with him helped to turn the balance between peace and war, and substantially conduced towards a pacific solution.

This star was seen to possess an apparent motion similar to that which would be a consequence of the nutation of the Earth's axis ; but since its declination varied only one half as much as in the case of γ Draconis, it was obvious that nutation did not supply the requisite solution.

Some problems may encounter only very small viscous effects on the solution, in which case viscosity can be considered to be negligible.

* Alkalis are normally water soluble, although some like barium carbonate are only soluble when reacting with an acidic aqueous solution.

The trivial solution that being is being added to nothing is only a tautology: being is being.

Montgomery came to the conclusion that the conflict could not be won without harsh measures, and that self-government was the only feasible solution ; in 1923, after the establishment of the Irish Free State and during the Irish Civil War, Montgomery wrote to Colonel Arthur Percival of the Essex Regiment:

According to Birkhoff's theorem, it is the only vacuum solution that is spherically symmetric.

In 1896, Theodor Herzl, a Jewish journalist living in Austria-Hungary, published Der Judenstaat (" The Jewish State "), in which he asserted that the only solution to the " Jewish Question " in Europe, including growing antisemitism, was through the establishment of a Jewish State.

Harold Wilson, then the Leader of the Opposition in the Commons, reiterated his belief that a united Ireland was the only possible solution to Northern Ireland's Troubles.

Chlorine gas only exists in a neutral or acidic solution.

Carboxylic acids are typically weak acids, meaning that they only partially dissociate into H < sup >+</ sup > cations and RCOO < sup >–</ sup > anions in neutral aqueous solution.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff unanimously agreed that a full-scale attack and invasion was the only solution.

This enables a closed form solution to security that works well when only a single well-characterized property can be isolated as critical, and that property is also assessable to math.

It was the only thing in his life for which he felt guilt.

More of an agricultural nation, they have relied on their warriors only for defense and for survival in the endless wars of the plains.

Two of the new hands, a Mexican named Jose Amado and a kid known only as Laredo, were picked for the first trick of riding night herd.

The valley was only a few hundred yards wide with just about room enough for a properly performed hundred-and-eighty-degree turn.

Packing a small suitcase, informing her husband whom she found in Harry's Bar that she was taking a train to Germany to get away for a while, patting his arm, refusing a drink, getting on the train -- all this had only taken her two hours.

On a bitterly cold day in January, 1895, accompanied only by Neal Brown as his deputy, Tilghman left the township of Guthrie and headed for Rock Fort and Dunn's ranch.

She said, with the solicitude of a middle-aged woman for her only child.

As for states' rights, they have never counted in the thinking of my liberal friends except as irritations of a minor and immoral nature which exist now only as anachronisms.

In fact it has caused us to give serious thought to moving our residence south, because it is not easy for the most objective Southerner to sit calmly by when his host is telling a roomful of people that the only way to deal with Southerners who oppose integration is to send in troops and shoot the bastards down.

In 1961 the first important legislative victory of the Kennedy Administration came when the principle of national responsibility for local economic distress won out over a `` state's-responsibility '' proposal -- provision was made for payment for unemployment relief by nation-wide taxation rather than by a levy only on those states afflicted with manpower surplus.

They are huge areas which have been swept by winds for so many centuries that there is no soil left, but only deep bare ridges fifty or sixty yards apart with ravines between them thirty or forty feet deep and the only thing that moves is a scuttling layer of sand.

Others are confined to vast reservations, and not only does the Australian government justifiably not wish them to be viewed as exhibits in a zoo, but on their reservations they are extremely fugitive, shunning camps, coming together only for corroborees at which their strange culture comes to its highest pitch -- which is very low indeed.

It seems that for Persia, and especially for this city, there are only two times: the glorious past and the corrupt, depressing, sterile present.

`` Now that Bruno Walter is virtually in retirement and my dear friend Dimitri Mitropoulos is no longer with us, I am probably the only one -- with the possible exception of Leonard Bernstein -- who has this special affinity for and champions the works of Bruckner and Mahler ''.

The family was Protestant, but for me it was only irksome and I let it go.

He will not curb his instinctual desires but release the energy within him that makes him feel truly and fully alive, even if it is only for this brief moment before the apocalypse of annihilation explodes on earth.

The women who come to West Venice, having forsaken radicalism, are interested in living only for the moment, in being constantly on the move.

From above one could only occasionally catch a glimpse of life on the floor of this green sea: a neighbor's gingham skirt flashing into sight for an instant on the path beneath her grape-arbor, or the movement of hands above a clothesline and the flutter of garments hung there, half-way down the block.

The part of the mind that preserves dates and events may remonstrate, `` It could have been like that for only a little while '' ; ;
