We cannot truthfully say of anyone who has succeeded in entering deep into his sixties that he was never old.

We can force Britain and France out of the Suez, but we cannot so much as try to force the Russian tanks back from Budapest.

We can vote in the UN against South African apartheid or Portuguese rule in Angola, but we cannot even introduce a motion on the Berlin Wall -- much less, give the simple order to push the Wall down.

We cannot test public opinion until the President and the leaders of the country have gone to the public to explain what is required and have asked them for support for the necessary action.

We note that two such curves C and Af, cannot coincide at more than a finite number of points ; ;

We cannot now speak of maximizing the value of the objective function, since this function is now known only in a probabilistic sense.

We cannot consider ourselves educated if we do not read ; ;

We cannot, of course, assign it any substance.

We may show, first, that there cannot possibly be an alternative other than the three typically represented by Bultmann, Barth, and Buri.

We cannot take the space to record all the efforts for the removal or alleviation of collective ills.

We must yield to the divine will, he says ; we cannot pick and choose and accept only what we can understand.

We cannot possibly conceive an ' is ' except as belonging to some thing that is, or exists.

Said Romney: " We simply cannot live in a setting where a project of this scale has the potential of threatening human life, as has already been seen ".

In 1944, Jones wrote to John Walvoord of Dallas Theological Seminary that while the university had " no objection to educational work highly standardized …. We, however, cannot conscientiously let some group of educational experts or some committee of experts who may have a behavioristic or atheistic slant on education control or even influence the administrative policies of our college.

We are in an age of rearmaments, but we on this side cannot accept that position ".

The words were given in response to the Latin maxim: " Ignoramus et ignorabimus " or " We do not know, we cannot know ":

We cannot tell at what date the book received its present form, since there are no clear historical allusions in it.

" We simply cannot do without auxiliary constructions ", as Theodor Fontane once said ... dwelling on imaginary wish fulfillments '.

We cannot build a water-tight theology promising physical healing, surely, for the most ' miracle-ridden ' Christian will die in the end, yielding to the natural processes of senescence.

We cannot understand today, but it was not taken seriously at all.

We first define a function b{t} as follows: given the set of squares such that each has three corners on C and vertex at t, b{t} is the corresponding set of positive parametric differences between T and the backward corner points.

We define these values as Af, and define g{t} in the same way for each T.

Articles of faith are sets of beliefs usually found in creeds, sometimes numbered, and often beginning with " We believe ...", which attempt to more or less define the fundamental theology of a given religion, and especially in the Christian Church.

We then define f ( x, y ) to be this z.

We can then define the differential map d: C < sup >∞</ sup >( M ) → T < sub > x </ sub >< sup >*</ sup > M at a point x as the map which sends f to df < sub > x </ sub >.

We can now define the value

We should not define ' wisdom ' as the absence of folly, or a healthy thing as whatever is not sick.

We define the periodic Bernoulli functions P < sub > n </ sub > by

We then define a contravariant functor F from C to D as a mapping that

We need a " mark " to define where we are and which direction we are heading to see if we ever get back to exactly the same pixel.

Verner wrote, " We can conclude that although the ancient Egyptians could not precisely define the value of π, in practice they used it ".

We define the kernel of h to be the set of elements in G which are mapped to the identity in H

We define the degree of to be the number of universal quantifier blocks, separated by existential quantifier blocks as shown above, in the prefix of.

We define the inverse limit of the inverse system (( A < sub > i </ sub >)< sub > i ∈ I </ sub >, ( f < sub > ij </ sub >)< sub > i ≤ j ∈ I </ sub >) as a particular subgroup of the direct product of the A < sub > i </ sub >' s:

We wish to maximize total value subject to the constraint that total weight is less than or equal to W. Then for each w ≤ W, define m to be the maximum value that can be attained with total weight less than or equal to w. m then is the solution to the problem.

We could also define a Lie algebra structure on T < sub > e </ sub > using right invariant vector fields instead of left invariant vector fields.

* We then define truth-functional operators, beginning with negation.

We can define addition, subtraction, and multiplication on by the following rules:

We can define methods to manipulate these new complex types.

We assume that A is an m-by-n matrix over either the real numbers or the complex numbers, and we define the linear map f by f ( x ) = Ax as above.

We can define a multiplication on the set S using the Steiner triple system by setting aa

We may define a possibly different topology on X using the continuous ( or topological ) dual space X < sup >*</ sup >.

We can also define it as a second component of business which includes all activities, functions and institutions involved in transferring goods from producers to consumer.
