Choose a letter: 
As problems like identity theft become more prevalent, now more than ever, Americans need to take their financial health seriously - and this information is of the utmost importance.
Ruben Hinojosa, American Politician (1940-  )
Not only has this subject been long associated with the ideas of thinking men over the ages but its practical importance is attested to by the huge resources of men and material thrown into this type of work.
Robert Hofstadter, American Economist (1915-1990)
The high food value of field beans and the shortage of supply due to the light yields of 1915 and 1916 render them of great importance in the regions to which they are adapted.
David F. Houston, American Politician (1866-1940)
The importance to the nation of a generously adequate food supply for the coming year cannot be overemphasized, in view of the economic problems which may arise as a result of the entrance of the United States into the war.
David F. Houston, American Politician (1866-1940)
Corn is the leading food and feed crop of the United States in geographic range of production, acreage, and quantity of product. The vital importance of a large acreage of this crop, properly cared for, therefore, is obvious.
David F. Houston, American Politician (1866-1940)
The life of man is of no greater importance to the universe than that of an oyster.
David Hume, Scottish Philosopher (1711-1776)
People place such importance on the external. It's disgusting.
Tab Hunter, American Actor (1931-  )
Official dignity tends to increase in inverse ratio to the importance of the country in which the office is held.
Aldous Huxley, English Novelist (1894-1963)
Amour is the one human activity of any importance in which laughter and pleasure preponderate, if ever so slightly, over misery and pain.
Aldous Huxley, English Novelist (1894-1963)
It is not who is right, but what is right, that is of importance.
Thomas Huxley, English Scientist (1825-1895)
The mere fact of an American being present could help save the lives of innocent people. That's why I believe in the importance of bearing witness, to become a voice for the voiceless.
Bianca Jagger, Nicaraguan Celebrity (1945-  )
It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance... and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.
Henry James, American Writer (1843-1916)
I always start with characters rather than with a plot, which many critics would say is very obvious from the lack of plot in my films - although I think they do have plots - but the plot is not of primary importance to me, the characters are.
Jim Jarmusch, American Director (1953-  )
One of the things I noticed more in this draft than in any recent drafts was the importance of the character issue. Players who had baggage, like Justice, fell much farther than his talent dictated. But a lot of coaches didn't want to take the chance.
Ron Jaworski, American Athlete (1951-  )
Although I do not have a family, I have eyes, ears and imagination, and know, as most people know, that the importance of one's children is paramount.
Lara St. John, Canadian Musician (1971-  )
It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of importance, it lasts so short a time.
Samuel Johnson, English Author (1709-1784)
Being selected Most Improved was a special individual award because when I speak to young people I always try to tell them the importance about it's not where you start but where you end up.
Kevin Johnson, American Athlete (1966-  )
I would not go so far as to say that the French trade unions attached greater importance to the struggle for peace than the others did; but they certainly seemed to take it more to heart.
Leon Jouhaux, French Leader (1879-1954)
I see little of more importance to the future of our country and of civilization than full recognition of the place of the artist. If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.
Pauline Kael, American Critic (1919-2001)
I wouldn't overestimate the importance of my popularity in the country and abroad but at the end of the day it's not as important because I believe that my presence here could make some difference and it could encourage people.
Garry Kasparov, Azerbaijani Celebrity (1963-  )
