Quote by Charlie Sheen

But you can't focus on things that matter if all you've been is asleep for forty years. Funny how sleep rhymes with sheep. You know.

But you can't focus on things that matter if all you've been

Summary

This quote highlights the importance of being awake and aware of the things that truly matter in life. It suggests that if someone has been metaphorically "asleep" or unaware for a long period of time, they will not be able to properly focus on the significant aspects of life. The inclusion of the play on words between "asleep" and "sheep" implies that blindly following the crowd, or being like sheep, can contribute to a state of unconsciousness or lack of individuality.

You convey too great a compliment when you say that I have earned the right to the presidential nomination. No man can establish such an obligation upon any part of the American people. My country owes me no debt. It gave me, as it gives every boy and girl, a chance. It gave me schooling, independence of action, opportunity for service and honor. In no other land could a boy from a country village, without inheritance or influential friends, look forward with unbounded hope. My whole life has taught me what America means. I am indebted to my country beyond any human power to repay.

Ever since I came to Congress in 1992, there are those who have been trying to silence my voice. I've been told to sit down and shut up over and over again. Well, I won't sit down and I won't shut up until the full and unvarnished truth is placed before the American people.

I'm an actor. And I guess I've done so many movies I've achieved some high visibility. But a star? I guess I still think of myself as kind of a worker ant.
