One thing I hope I'll never be is drunk with my own power. And anybody who says I am will never work in this town again.
Listen, everything I did in my childhood was competitive. Everything we did my dad made it into a game to win. We used to drive my mum nuts.
Lee Westwood
Whatever we do or fail to do will influence the course of history.
Arthur Henderson
One already feels like an anachronism, writing novels in the age of what-ever-this-is-the-age-of, but touring to promote them feels doubly anachronistic. The marketplace is showing an increasing intolerance for the time-honored practice of printing information on paper and shipping it around the country.
Lev Grossman
I mean it's funny, playing music, how of course you want it to do well, you want them to like it, but it's not competitive like an election, it's the Olympics, it's not a Formula 1 race. The Billboard charts are just to show you what people like.
Eddie Van Halen
Grown men can learn from very little children for the hearts of little children are pure. Therefore, the Great Spirit may show to them many things which older people miss.
Black Elk
I don't keep my secrets or my knowledge to myself.
Natalia Makarova
It's easier to change what you do than people think it is. If you don't change, your field changes around you.
Walter Gilbert
I think we should all be tolerant of each other and embrace each others' strengths and differences and uniqueness and beauty.
Martina McBride
I wrote and produced millions and millions of selling records, so my publishing company alone was worth millions of dollars. I didn't have to work anymore in life because when the rappers started sampling... I'm the most sampled artist in history.
Rick James
Never trust sheep.
Ryan Stiles
We've lost touch and allowed technology to take precedence over organic nature. But let's not forget that those microchips in our computers came from elements of the earth.
Emilio Estevez
People are much more inclined to believe and say bad things about you if you're famous.
Danielle Steel
Make women rational creatures, and free citizens, and they will quickly become good wives - that is, if men do not neglect the duties of husbands and fathers.
Mary Wollstonecraft
I finally got a chance to talk to my daughter from my previous marriage. I just got married May 3 to my beautiful wife, but we don't see each other much.
Peter Criss
It's hard to tell how far women's individuality has come in the past twenty years.
Annie Lennox
Two packed houses. I guess the theater sat 2,700 people every night so it was an amazing experience.
Blair Underwood
What I love about new technology is that it really pushes the art. It really pushes it in a way that you can't imagine until you come up with the idea. It's idea-based. You can do anything.
Robert Rodriguez
Farming with live animals is a 7 day a week, legal form of slavery.
George Segal
Hemingway seems to be in a funny position. People nowadays can't identify with him closely as a member of their own generation, and he isn't yet historical.
Leslie Fiedler
I'll see you in my dreams.
Gus Kahn
Any truth is better than indefinite doubt.
Arthur Conan Doyle
I'm 33 now and I seem to have hit a fitness plane. Shifting the wobbly bits isn't as easy as it used to be.
Matthew Rhys
When you get just a complete sense of blackness or void ahead of you, that somehow the future looks an impossible place to be, and the direction you are going seems to have no purpose, there is this word despair which is a very awful thing to feel.
Stephen Fry
You can't escape the taste of the food you had as a child. In times of stress, what do you dream about? Your mother's clam chowder. It's security, comfort. It brings you home.
Jacques Pepin
I guess what I learned the most was to feel lucky with what I have been able to accomplish and what I have and to feel humble about the people I have been able to work with.
Stephen Dorff
Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen; goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow.
Sappho
What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.
Do you really have to be the ice queen intellectual or the slut whore? Isn't there some way to be both?
Susan Sarandon
Good friends are good for your health.
Irwin Sarason
Every time I paint a portrait I lose a friend.
John Singer Sargent
I hate to paint portraits! I hope never to paint another portrait in my life. Portraiture may be all right for a man in his youth, but after forty I believe that manual dexterity deserts one, and, besides, the color-sense is less acute. Youth can better stand the exactions of a personal kind that are inseparable from portraiture. I have had enough of it.
Nobody can be successful if he doesn't love his work, love his job.
David Sarnoff
You will find in politics that you are much exposed to the attribution of false motive. Never complain and never explain.
Stanley Baldwin
Work and live to serve others, to leave the world a little better than you found it and garner for yourself as much peace of mind as you can. This is happiness.
The great menace to the life of an industry is industrial self-complacency.
I majored in fashion design in school, and I have always wanted to design my own line of clothing, jewelry, and stuff like that so this was just a step for me in that direction.
Diana Ross
The human brain must continue to frame the problems for the electronic machine to solve.
Feminists bore me to death. I follow my instinct and if that supports young girls in any way, great. But I'd rather they saw it more as a lesson about following their own instincts rather than imitating somebody.
Bjork
Man is still the greatest miracle and the greatest problem on this earth.
Success, in a generally accepted sense of the term, means the opportunity to experience and to realize to the maximum the forces that are within us.
