All of us are experts at practicing virtue at a distance.
Theodore Hesburgh
Contrary to popular accounts, very few scientists in the world - possibly none - have a sufficiently thorough, "big picture" understanding of the climate system to be relied upon for a prediction of the magnitude of global warming. To the public, we all might seem like experts, but the vast majority of us work on only a small portion of the problem.
Roy Spencer
Despite claims by some to the contrary, we have heard numerous times in hearings and briefings by experts that existing technologies do not fully or effectively detect nuclear material.

Robert. L. Ehrlich
Go on - but don't think you can kill my confidence. I've had experts doing it for years.
John Osborne
Gospel music rhythms are not African in origin, although I know that's what the jazz experts say.

I enjoy the crafts on the show enormously, too, when we have experts in showing how to make things. You watch them thinking you'll go home and do the things yourself, which is fun. Some I have done myself later on.
