148
149

334
Showing up is like 90 percent of the battle, and just make sure your hair is really cute.
335
336
We can bring positive energy into our daily lives by smiling more, talking to strangers in line, replacing handshakes with hugs, and calling our friends just to tell them we love them.
337
I always invest my own money in the companies that I create. I don’t believe in the whole thing of just using other people’s money. I don’t think that’s right. I’m not going to ask other people to invest in something if I’m not prepared to do so myself.
338
Censorship no longer works by hiding information from you; censorship works by flooding you with immense amounts of misinformation, of irrelevant information, of funny cat videos, until you’re just unable to focus.
339
340
341
342
343
344
345
I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.
346
I have no use for people who throw their weight around as celebrities, or for those who fawn over you just because you are famous.
347
Just do what must be done. This may not be happiness, but it is greatness.
348
349
350
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don’t just stand there, make it happen.
351
352
I’m not afraid of anything. That’s just the way I am.
353
354
Don’t think, just do.
355
If you want to do something, just do it. No one is going to do it for you.
356
The main thing that you have to remember on this journey is, just be nice to everyone and always smile.
357
Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.
358
I ain’t ever had a job, I just always played baseball.
359
Just do what you love. This is what I am doing.
360
361
Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison.
362
Life’s so unpredictable. You never know when the next high or low will strike you. The trick is just to flow with the tide.
363
We have more to offer than just looking good.
364
365
A birthday is just another day where you go to work and people give you love. Age is just a state of mind, and you are as old as you think you are. You have to count your blessings and be happy.
366
People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom?
367
Be able to delegate, because there are some things that you just can’t do by yourself.
368
369
I don’t think people change. I think they definitely mature. But I think the essence of what I am today is the same as when I was five years old. It’s just maturity. I’ve become a healthier, fuller expression of that essence.
370
371
372
373
374
I do believe in God. But you won’t find me visiting temples every now and then. I believe in self-realization. Peace of mind matters a lot to me. What’s the point in doing something just for the sake of it? I’d rather do something I like doing as long as I’m being true to myself.
375
The football field was a place where I could express myself and just be me. Play the game as well as you can and that’s what you’re judged on. Not the colour of your skin, or your beliefs, or the conversation you have around racism.
376
I’m just trying to show people that I ain’t gotta ride off no movement. I can ride off myself.
377
378
379
Just get a bag and drop a dream in it, and you’ll be surprised what happens.
380
Just think of any negativity that comes at you as a raindrop falling into the ocean of your bliss.
381
382
Do something because you really want to do it. If you’re doing it just for the goal and don’t enjoy the path, then I think you’re cheating yourself.
383
When you spend a lot of time, like I do, just standing around and waiting, or being moved from place to place, every minute gets consumed by something someone else has set up for you. And it’s not like I’m always in a beautiful place wearing something gorgeous.
384
385
It takes more than just a good looking body. You’ve got to have the heart and soul to go with it.
386
387
People see God every day, they just don’t recognize him.
388
389
Win or lose, just stay calm.
390
Try to forget what objects you have before you – a tree, a house, a field, or whatever. Merely think, ‘Here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow,’ and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact color and shape, until it gives you your own impression of the scene before you.
391
It’s very refreshing to go away and take a break, to clear your head, and just get into something else.
392
None of us wants to be judged by our worst act on our worst day, and we consistently judge Burr for that. He was not a perfect man, but he’s not a villain. He’s a dude, just a guy.
393
394
Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon, which cuts without wounding and ennobles the man who wields it. It is a sword that heals.
395
You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.
396
397
I just want to be able to do it all just because that’s what life is.
398
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
399
Take a leap of faith and begin this wondrous new year by believing. Believe in yourself. And believe that there is a loving Source – a Sower of Dreams – just waiting to be asked to help you make your dreams come true.
400
Don’t just count your years, make your years count.
401
Every great work, every big accomplishment, has been brought into manifestation through holding to the vision, and often just before the big achievement, comes apparent failure and discouragement.
402
403
God wants us to know that life is a series of beginnings, not endings. Just as graduations are not terminations, but commencements. Creation is an ongoing process, and when we create a perfect world where love and compassion are shared by all, suffering will cease.
404
There are no big problems, there are just a lot of little problems.
405
It’s not denial. I’m just selective about the reality I accept.
406
407
Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.
408
409
I like to be quiet and play guitar and just chill.
410
You just got with the flow because life is just all about how you feel.
411
412
A lot of things are going to happen that you can’t necessarily control all the time, but you can control what you do after it happens. So that’s what I try to do, keep my head up, keep moving forward, stay positive and just work hard.
413
Just because everything is different doesn’t mean anything has changed.
414
It’s a long road, so we are just trying to stay focused and grounded and keep moving forward. I’ll take it, though.
415
Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn’t mean politics won’t take an interest in you.
416
Focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. If you aren’t sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works better.
417
My story of success and failure is not just about music and being famous. It’s about living and loving and trying to find purpose in this crazy world.
418
419
If you want to be a rock star or just be famous, then run down the street naked, you’ll make the news or something. But if you want music to be your livelihood, then play, play, play and play! And eventually you’ll get to where you want to be.
420
421
422
423
424
My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you I just signed legislation which outlaws Russia forever. The bombing begins in five minutes.
425
Together we can change the world, just one random act of kindness at a time.
426
427
When you DJ, you’re just on your own, which is nice because there’s no argument.
428
Femininity is not just lipstick, stylish hairdos, and trendy clothes. It is the divine adornment of humanity. It finds expression in your qualities of your capacity to love, your spirituality, delicacy, radiance, sensitivity, creativity, charm, graciousness, gentleness, dignity, and quiet strength.
429
430
Sometimes it’s like watching a train wreck. You’re uncomfortable, but you just can’t help yourself. Some of those so-called bad interviews actually turned into compelling television.
431
I just really enjoy life.
432
Life is just a bowl of pits.
433
I’m just doing me, and to me, that’s what got me this far.
434
I think that I was raised by two of the best people ever. My mother and father are just the definition of hard work, like what hard work brings to you. They’ve taught me and my brothers and sisters to set your goals high and to give everything to reach them.
435
436
I just wish people would realize that anything’s possible if you try; dreams are made possible if you try.
437
438
Achievements are precious and timeless, just like the precious metal platinum. And what better way to celebrate milestones in your life than with precious platinum.
439
Everything for me is either a learn or a win. I just keep moving forward, and that’s about it, honestly.
440
441
A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.
442
Of all that is good, sublimity is supreme. Succeeding is the coming together of all that is beautiful. Furtherance is the agreement of all that is just. Perseverance is the foundation of all actions.
443
444
445
Election days come and go. But the struggle of the people to create a government which represents all of us and not just the one percent – a government based on the principles of economic, social, racial and environmental justice – that struggle continues.
446
You don’t always have to be doing something. You can just be, and that’s plenty.
447
With any part you play, there is a certain amount of yourself in it. There has to be, otherwise it’s just not acting. It’s lying.
448
I’m just a cool guy. It’s just in my DNA.
449
I don’t want to be fake. I’m just being me. And I have the power to break stereotypes and whatever useless rules that society puts on us.
450
451
Someone who just has a really good heart – it’s so attractive: someone who makes you feel beautiful and encourages you – makes you better.
452
When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have to speak up. You have to say something; you have to do something.
453
Understand that everybody has their own struggles, regardless of whether you can see it or not. Just surround yourself with the people who love you, and know you’re not really alone.
454
Just knowing you don’t have the answers is a recipe for humility, openness, acceptance, forgiveness, and an eagerness to learn – and those are all good things.
455
I’m not perfect. I don’t claim to be perfect. So, when people point out I’m imperfect, so what? That’s just who I am.
456
Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, it’s just the opposite.
457
458
I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.
459
460
When I wake up, I expect things to be good. If they’re not, then I try to set about trying to make them as good as I can ’cause I know I’m gonna have to live that day anyway. So why not try to make the most of it if you can? Some days, they pan out a little better than others, but you still gotta always just try.
461
You never know where life is going to take you. So everything I do, I just take it one day at a time, and it always leads you to the right place.
462
A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.
463
464
Football’s not just about scoring goals – it’s about winning.
465
Perfection is impossible; just strive to do your best.
466
467
Being natural is incredibly empowering for women because it’s just who you are. You’re embracing all the beautiful things about you from your head to your toes. Because when you mask so much of your natural beauty, people don’t get to see that.
468
Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.
469
I just aspire to be the best I can be. I want to work hard and set one goal at a time for myself.
470
Anyone can take the wheel of the ship in calm water but it’s not so easy when it’s not calm water. You can’t just enjoy the good times, you have to be resilient in the tough times.
471
472
Just as despair can come to one only from other human beings, hope, too, can be given to one only by other human beings.
473
In war, you win or lose, live or die – and the difference is just an eyelash.
474
To the uneducated, an A is just three sticks.
475
I’m just myself. That’s the best way to put it.
476
Doing voiceovers is so great because even though many people would think it’s just your voice, you really do use all your physicality. I’ve done everything from playing a butterfly to Alice in Wonderland when she’s 10 feet tall, so it allows you to be an actor and build new characters.
477
478
479
480
About Jesus Christ and the Church, I simply know they’re just one thing.
481
482
Doubt is a killer. You just have to know who you are and what you stand for.
483
484
485
486
487
488
Adolescence is just one big walking pimple.
489
If everything seems under control, you’re just not going fast enough.
490
Just build your brand from day one, man. Your brand is your name, basically. A lot of people don’t know that they need to build their brand, your brand is what keeps you moving.
491
Some people walk in the rain, others just get wet.
492
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
493
494
You CAN have it all. You just can’t have it all at once.
495
Electricity can transform people’s lives, not just economically but also socially.
496
Second place is just the first place loser.
497
498
We’re not a racist organization, because we understand that racism is an excuse used for capitalism, and we know that racism is just – it’s a byproduct of capitalism.
499
I’m living with every step. I can’t live with regret. The past is the past. I’m not worried about it. I can’t change it. I can’t fix it. It is what it is. I’m just living.
500
A successful competition for me is always going out there and putting 100 percent into whatever I’m doing. It’s not always winning. People, I think, mistake that it’s just winning. Sometimes it could be, but for me, it’s hitting the best sets I can, gaining confidence, and having a good time and having fun.
501
502
You’ve got to give something back. You can’t just sit there.
503
We need time to defuse, to contemplate. Just as in sleep our brains relax and give us dreams, so at some time in the day we need to disconnect, reconnect, and look around us.
504
I just got out of the hospital. I was in a speed-reading accident. I hit a bookmark.
505
The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.
506
Just living is not enough… one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.
507
508
I thank God for my failures. Maybe not at the time but after some reflection. I never feel like a failure just because something I tried has failed.
509
510
Haters never win. I just think that’s true about life, because negative energy always costs in the end.
511
We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.
512
In my deepest, darkest moments, what really got me through was a prayer. Sometimes my prayer was ‘Help me.’ Sometimes a prayer was ‘Thank you.’ What I’ve discovered is that intimate connection and communication with my creator will always get me through because I know my support, my help, is just a prayer away.
513
In order to keep my creativity alive, I just try to enjoy life to the fullest.
514
515
Don’t take things too seriously, and just chill.
516
517
I just enjoy life in a way where I like being my own person.
518
Women deeply want men who are competent and powerful. And I don’t mean power in that they can exert tyrannical control over others. That’s not power. That’s just corruption.
519
I am just one human being.
520
521
522
It is just that we should be grateful, not only to those with whose views we may agree, but also to those who have expressed more superficial views; for these also contributed something, by developing before us the powers of thought.
523
I ain’t follow nobody path; I did it my own way. It’s just grindin’, ya feel me? You just gotta grind.
524
My mother and father were both much more remarkable than any story of mine can make them. They seem to me just mythically wonderful.
525
I think frugality drives innovation, just like other constraints do. One of the only ways to get out of a tight box is to invent your way out.
526
There is no rule book, no right or wrong; you just have to make it up and do the very best you can to care for your family.
527
528
I’ve always put my family first and that’s just the way it is.
529
You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae.
530
531
When you see a person, do you just concentrate on their looks? It’s just a first impression. Then there’s someone who doesn’t catch your eye immediately, but you talk to them and they become the most beautiful thing in the world. The greatest actors aren’t what you would call beautiful sex symbols.
532
533
Peace is the beauty of life. It is sunshine. It is the smile of a child, the love of a mother, the joy of a father, the togetherness of a family. It is the advancement of man, the victory of a just cause, the triumph of truth.
534
You are just your intelligence.
535
536
537
Do not wait; the time will never be ‘just right.’ Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
538
539
I’m human, I’m not perfect. I make mistakes all the time, but I guess my job is to keep those mistakes to myself, which I’m already fine doing and just try to be the best I can be for those kids.
540
541
542
When I went out on tour as Bing Hitler I would hook up with Lenny and we’d get drunk together. He was always very supportive. He was a big star and a lot of what he said to me had power and impact. Apart from that, I just like him.
543
544
545
Being brave enough to just be unapologetic for who you are, that’s a goddess.
546
547
I will remember this day for the rest of my life. There is nothing you can say. It’s just like you won the match after the earthquake and it just feels great.
548
549
Missionaries are very human folks, just doing what they are asked. Simply a bunch of nobodies trying to exalt Somebody.
550
People just love rumors. They’re always saying things that aren’t true.
551
You’ve just got to keep going through the tough times and try your best every time you play.
552
553
554
I’ve never seen anywhere in the world as beautiful as Kashmir. It has something to do with the fact that the valley is very small and the mountains are very big, so you have this miniature countryside surrounded by the Himalayas, and it’s just spectacular. And it’s true, the people are very beautiful too.
555
I stopped thinking; I just go out, and everything is in the moment. I just stop thinking and start moving – you just gotta be you.
556
I woke up one day and thought, ‘Enough is enough with bullying myself.’ The war is within you, and that’s also where it’s won. You just have to tackle your insecurities and then let them go.
557
I don’t know what my path is yet. I’m just walking on it.
558
Just imagine becoming the way you used to be as a very young child, before you understood the meaning of any word, before opinions took over your mind. The real you is loving, joyful, and free. The real you is just like a flower, just like the wind, just like the ocean, just like the sun.
559
560
I have gotten better at saying to myself, ‘Relax and just take this moment in. Appreciate it for what it is.’
561
562
563
564
Education doesn’t just make us smarter. It makes us whole.
565
Five letters here just for everybody out there in Packer-land: R-E-L-A-X, Relax. We’re going to be OK.
566
567
Sometimes you gotta just chill. You gotta chill your thinking process.
568
I talk to myself all the time. Just make sure you answer.
569
570
571
You just have to be authentic. You can’t fake a smile. You have to do what you actually enjoy.
572
573
574
We are just statistics, born to consume resources.
575
Honestly, just live your life to the fullest. Laugh a lot, love and find your true happiness.
576
I think that’s the most beautiful thing about being confident – just loving yourself, not caring what everybody else thinks. Because you could be Mother Theresa, and people are still going to try to find some imperfection.
577
A little bit of mercy makes the world less cold and more just.
578
Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion – it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ.
579
Just do what you do best.
580
Jealousy is just love and hate at the same time.
581
Nothing succeeds like success. Get a little success, and then just get a little more.
582
In every revolution, there are winners and losers. Every dystopia is a utopia for somebody else. It just depends where you are. Are you in the class that benefits, or are you in the class that’s not?
583
584
585
I think I can always look back and say my mom and dad would have done this or suggested that in a particular situation. I just really feel blessed to have had them as parents.
586
587
588
Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
589
590
591
592
Well-being cannot exist just in your own head. Well-being is a combination of feeling good as well as actually having meaning, good relationships and accomplishment.
593
594
Things can go away just like that. You got to be always respectful and nice and positive.
595
If you want to be successful, it’s just this simple. Know what you are doing. Love what you are doing. And believe in what you are doing.
596
597
When people refer to ‘Back in the Day,’ it was a Wednesday. Just a little fun fact for you.
598
My home is in Heaven. I’m just traveling through this world.
599
What is a fear of living? It’s being preeminently afraid of dying. It is not doing what you came here to do, out of timidity and spinelessness. The antidote is to take full responsibility for yourself – for the time you take up and the space you occupy. If you don’t know what you’re here to do, then just do some good.
600
601
Just because nobody complains doesn’t mean all parachutes are perfect.
602
603
Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important.
604
She’s always there for me when I need her; She’s my best friend; she’s just my everything.
605
It is nice finding that place where you can just go and relax.
606
The key to the future in an aging society is not found in increasing just our life span; we need to increase our health span at the same time.
607
A shirt‘s not just a shirt. It’s the experience of what goes into that shirt.
608
609
It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.
610
Virtually nothing is impossible in this world if you just put your mind to it and maintain a positive attitude.
611
612
Endurance is not just the ability to bear a hard thing, but to turn it into glory.
613
You’ve got to learn your instrument. Then, you practice, practice, practice. And then, when you finally get up there on the bandstand, forget all that and just wail.
614
I think the biggest misconception about me is people really don’t know who I really am. They see the party side of me, they see the crazy side of me. But I also have a laid-back side. You know, I’m chill, down to earth. If you want to grab a cup of coffee and just talk about life, I can do that.
615
I just enjoy life now. I just enjoy every morning I get to wake up.
616
You can’t stop getting older; you just have to keep going and laugh a lot.
617
If you haven’t used Bitcoin first-hand, you may not get the inherent advantage of a quicker appreciation and understanding of its potential. Seeing assets move swiftly without intermediaries is an eye opening experience, and that is just a starting point.
618
In our country the lie has become not just a moral category but a pillar of the State.
619
It is not enough just to wish well; we must also do well.
620
Everybody is different. Everybody has different styles. Just do it the best way you know how.
621
622
I just want people to know me and to love me, because I have no love.
623
624
History isn’t just the story of bad people doing bad things. It’s quite as much a story of people trying to do good things. But somehow, something goes wrong.
625
We are a continuum. Just as we reach back to our ancestors for our fundamental values, so we, as guardians of that legacy, must reach ahead to our children and their children. And we do so with a sense of sacredness in that reaching.
626
627
628
I intend to live life, not just exist.
629
If my future were determined just by my performance on a standardized test, I wouldn’t be here. I guarantee you that.
630
Everybody has talent, it’s just a matter of moving around until you’ve discovered what it is.
631
632
633
I never worry about being driven to drink; I just worry about being driven home.
634
You just gotta keep going and fighting for everything, and one day you’ll get to where you want.
635
636
Everything is a learning process: any time you fall over, it’s just teaching you to stand up the next time.
637
Don’t wait. The time will never be just right.
638
639
When ‘Top Gun’ came out, my sisters were like, ‘Oh, my God, ‘Top Gun!’ Tom Cruise!’ And I very confidently said, ‘I’m going to marry him one day.’ It wasn’t like, ‘How do I get to Tom Cruise?’ It was just, ‘I think I’m going to marry him. Why not? He’ll like me. I’m fun.’
640
641
