We are still suffering the effects of the change from traditional business apparel to casual apparel. Those (casual apparel brands) carry much lower price points and people still haven't figured out what casual is. There's no real direction for fashion. People don't know what direction it's going, and for women this is a big issue.

New York has gotten more casual, Chicago has gotten more casual but Houston is still kind of formal when it comes to socializing.

Howard Davidowitz

The word ''civilization'' to my mind is coupled with death. When I use the word, I see civilization as a crippling, thwarting thing, a stultifying thing. For me it was always so. I don't believe in the golden ages, you see... civilization is the arteriosclerosis of culture.

Henry Miller (1891-1980)

I think primarily we've left our doors unlocked because it never occurred to us, generally, that this would happen. We live a rather casual life out here -- rather too casual.

There's been kind of a general malaise in apparel over the last couple of years. We are still suffering the effects of the change from traditional business apparel to casual apparel. Those (casual wear) carry much lower price points and people still haven't figured out what casual is. People are waiting to see how it's going to shake out. Where a woman may have bought a $100 skirt in the past, she's now buying a $20 skirt.

Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence. One measure of a civilization, either of an age or of a single individual, is what that age or person really wishes to do. A man's hope measures his civilization. The attainability of the hope measures, or may measure, the civilization of his nation and time.

Ezra Pound (1885-1972)

Ezra Pound

Violence is not necessary to destroy a civilization. Each civilization dies from indifference to the unique values which created it.

Nicolas Gomez Davila (1913-1994)

Judaism is a civilization. It has history, culture, literature. It has jokes, ... Part of any civilization is its religious beliefs, and so part of Judaism is the religion of the Jew, but they are not the same thing. We're looking at the ways in which a person who is Jewish by birth, civilization, culture, context and family may look at things differently from the way a person who is Catholic and lives down the road may see them.

We were just a little too casual. Just a little too casual on defense, not quite boxing out enough, not quite challenging the shooter. And the other teams were taking advantage of it. We have the talent to play with these teams, but when we don't bring our best it's not like we have a big margin for error. We just came back and took care of the little things.

Equal and united people can above all become a part of the civilization toward which mankind is moving. If we cannot be at the head of the column leading to such a civilization, there is certainly no need for us to be at is tail.

Slobodan Milosevic (1941-)

I don't think our team was ever cocky. But you kind of get casual. When we went to the Wyoming tournament, we were picked to win, and we kind of got casual.

It's Aspen. If you go to these parties, people are dressed in everything from very casual to very sophisticated. And even the casual is sophisticated. You can wear just about anything.

Mayor Helen Klanderud

The foundations of civilization are no stronger and no more enduring than the corporate integrity of the homes on which they rest. If the home deteriorates, civilization will crumble and fall.

Billy Graham (1918-)

Billy Graham

No matter how much restriction civilization imposes on the individual, he nevertheless finds some way to circumvent it. Wit is the best safety valve modern man has evolved; the more civilization, the more repression, the more need there is for wit."

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)
