| John Sergeant Wise |  Even if my mother had no qualms of conscience concerning ownership of negroes, her sense of duty carried her far beyond the mere supplying of their physical needs, or requiring that they render faithful service.

| John Sexton | And the camera position, the organization, looking for repeating forms, shapes, trying to set up a visual rhythm seemed to come very natural. All of a sudden I was in a forest of aluminum and steel rather than a forest that we might think of in a traditional sense.
John Sexton |
| John Sexton | I think the greatest photographers are the amateur photographers who do it because they love it. Arnold Newman is a good example; he is a consummate professional, but he's also an 'amateur' in the pure sense of the word.
John Sexton |
| John Shelby Spong | I think that anything that begins to give people a sense of their own worth and dignity is God.
John Shelby Spong |
| John Sladek | I have a kind of standard explanation why, which goes like this: Science fiction is one way of making sense out of a senseless world.
John Sladek |
| John Steinbeck | I have never smuggled anything in my life. Why, then, do I feel an uneasy sense of guilt on approaching a customs barrier?
John Steinbeck |
| John Stuart Mill | No slave is a slave to the same lengths, and in so full a sense of the word, as a wife is.
John Stuart Mill |
| John Stuart Mill | Popular opinions, on subjects not palpable to sense, are often true, but seldom or never the whole truth.
John Stuart Mill |
| John Sununu | For my children, it makes sense to talk about modernizing Social Security, letting them create stronger personal accounts, letting them get a higher rate of return over the long run.
John Sununu |
| John Thorn | This was nostalgia in the literal Greek sense: the pain of not being able to return to one's home and family.
John Thorn |
| John Vinocur | The sense of war, the extraordinary bravery of the Allied armies, the numbers, the losses, the real suffering that disappears in time and commemorative oratory, are not marked out in any red guidebook of the emotions, but they are present if you look.
John Vinocur |
| John von Neumann | There's no sense in being precise when you don't even know what you're talking about.
John von Neumann |
| John Warner | I am outraged that a House member has tried through this provision to breach the traditional confidentiality of individual Americans' tax returns. There is no reason for this measure, and this last-minute act violates all principles of judgment and common sense.
John Warner |
| John Yoo | It is also worth asking whether the strict limitations of Geneva make sense in a war against terrorists.
John Yoo |
| John Yoo | Once the attacks occur, as we learned on Sept. 11, it is too late. It makes little sense to deprive ourselves of an important, and legal, means to detect and prevent terrorist attacks while we are still in the middle of a fight to the death with al Qaeda.
John Yoo |
| John Zorn | I have wit in my work and a sense of humor, but I do not use irony in any way.
John Zorn |
| Johnnie Cochran | If it doen't make sense, you should find for the defense.
Johnnie Cochran |
| Johnny Cash | It's like a novelist writing far out things. If it makes a point and makes sense, then people like to read that. But if it's off in left field and goes over the edge, you lose it. The same with musical talent, I think.
Johnny Cash |
| Jon Corzine | Words without deeds violates the moral and legal obligation we have under the genocide convention but, more importantly, violates our sense of right and wrong and the standards we have as human beings about looking to care for one another.
Jon Corzine |
| Jon Fishman | I think it's like music for the sake of music, and a lot of the words stem from liking music a lot, wanting to be a good band and having a good sense of humour, and living in a situation where we're free to pretty much do what we want.
Jon Fishman |
