I wasn’t really too hyped on religion. I don’t really believe in a religion like that. I just believe that there is a God. There’s just somebody up there that listens to me, and they can show me better if I talk to them and build a relationship with them.
228
A waffle is like a pancake with a syrup trap.
229
Learning lessons is a little like reaching maturity. You’re not suddenly more happy, wealthy, or powerful, but you understand the world around you better, and you’re at peace with yourself. Learning life’s lessons is not about making your life perfect, but about seeing life as it was meant to be.
230
A vibrant civil society can challenge those in power by documenting corruption or uncovering activities like the murder of political enemies. In democracies, this function is mostly performed by the media, NGOs or opposition parties.
231
You have to enjoy life. Always be surrounded by people that you like, people who have a nice conversation. There are so many positive things to think about.
232
Things don’t always go your way in football: there are always good and bad times. At the end of the day, you have to have a positive attitude and a strong mentality and not let any setbacks get you down. And that’s what I’ve done – I’ve tried to keep my composure, even when things aren’t going the way I’d like.
Giovani Dos Santos
233
I like being the underdog so they don’t expect what’s going to happen. It pushes me to work harder and do the things I’m not doing better.
234
Life is like an ice-cream cone, you have to lick it one day at a time.
Charles M. Schulz
235
There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something better tomorrow.
236
I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work.
237
Fiction is like a spider‘s web, attached ever so slightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners. Often the attachment is scarcely perceptible.
238
When I was in high school, there was ‘Superbad’ and ‘The Girl Next Door‘ and ‘Wedding Crashers’ and all these great movies. You hope to be a part of something that’s smart, funny and in that Todd Phillips-vein. You want to make something like ‘Superbad.’ That movie was so good and so funny.
239
The reason a lot of people do not recognize opportunity is because it usually goes around wearing overalls looking like hard work.
240
When you look at a city, it’s like reading the hopes, aspirations and pride of everyone who built it.
Hugh Newell Jacobsen
241
I like to try new looks and new haircuts. It’s part of who I am.
242
I like to fish. Fishing is always a way of relaxing.
243
I consider myself a poet first and a musician second. I live like a poet and I’ll die like a poet.
244
Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought.
245
Revenge… is like a rolling stone, which, when a man hath forced up a hill, will return upon him with a greater violence, and break those bones whose sinews gave it motion.
246
Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.
247
War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus.
248
I do not like the human race. I don’t like their heads, I don’t like their faces, I don’t like their feet, I don’t like their conversations, I don’t like their hairdos, I don’t like their automobiles.
249
Beauty, sweet love, is like the morning dew, Whose short refresh upon tender green, Cheers for a time, but till the sun doth show And straight is gone, as it had never been.
Samuel Daniel
250
There is a saying, ‘Eyes are the windows to the soul.’ It means, mostly, people can see through someone else by eye contact in seven seconds. I have a habit that if I meet someone I don’t know, I’d like to look at her or his eyes on purpose. When my eyes lay on them, I can immediately see their true color.
Peng Liyuan
251
Treat a work of art like a prince. Let it speak to you first.
252
The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening.
253
I like people that enjoy life, ’cause I do the same.
254
I learned a long time ago the wisest thing I can do is be on my own side, be an advocate for myself and others like me.
255
I want to be able to look back and say, ‘I’ve done everything I can, and I was successful.’ I don’t want to look back and say I should have done this or that. I’d like to change things for the younger generation of swimmers coming along.
256
The Worldly Hope men set their Hearts upon Turns Ashes – or it prospers; and anon, Like Snow upon the Desert’s dusty Face, Lighting a little hour or two – is gone.
Omar Khayyam
257
Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night. I miss you like hell.
258
I believe that if you work hard and you never get to enjoy it then what’s the point. You can’t take any of this with you, the money or nothing. The only thing you can take is experiences, memories and good times, so I like to get amongst it as much as I can.
259
The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good reason.
260
Men are like wine – some turn to vinegar, but the best improve with age.
Pope John XXIII
261
I can relax with bums because I am a bum. I don’t like laws, morals, religions, rules. I don’t like to be shaped by society.
262
Where would you be without friends? The people to pick you up when you need lifting? We come from homes far from perfect, so you end up almost parent and sibling to your friends – your own chosen family. There’s nothing like a really loyal, dependable, good friend. Nothing.
263
Money and corruption are ruining the land, crooked politicians betray the working man, pocketing the profits and treating us like sheep, and we’re tired of hearing promises that we know they’ll never keep.
Ray Davies
264
The way I see it, you should live everyday like its your birthday.
265
Wearing a turtleneck is like being strangled by a really weak guy, all day. Wearing a backpack and a turtleneck is like a weak midget trying to bring you down.
266
In our business, things look like a failure until they’re not. It’s pretty binary transitions.
267
Nothing succeeds like success. Get a little success, and then just get a little more.
268
You don’t appreciate life until you get to the other side. Like lying in a hospital bed.
Fabrice Muamba
269
From my childhood I had been intended for the clergy. This prospect hung like a dark cloud on my mind.
270
Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.
271
An excellent man; he has no enemies; and none of his friends like him.
272
I like to feel blonde all over.
273
Every song is like a painting.
274
Too many people spend money they haven‘t earned to buy things they don’t want to impress people they don’t like.
275
It’s always hard to deal with injuries mentally, but I like to think about it as a new beginning. I can’t change what happened, so the focus needs to go toward healing and coming back stronger than before.
276
Life is like the monkey bars: you have to let go to move forward. Once you make the decision to leap into entrepreneurship, be sure to loosen your grasp on old concepts so you can swing your way to new ones.
277
A countryman between two lawyers is like a fish between two cats.
278
I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.
279
If you like gold, there are many reasons you should like Bitcoin.
280
Sometimes I’m in a bad mood, sometimes I’m in a good mood. It’s like everyone else.
281
We shall not be happy unless we live like good animals, unless we enjoy the exercise of the ordinary functions of life: eating, sleeping, loving, walking, running, swimming, riding, sailing.
282
Potential is like a summer crop. If it don’t rain, it don’t grow.
283
The more I paint the more I like everything.
Jean-Michel Basquiat
284
I’d like to kiss ya, but I just washed my hair.
285
Your body is like a piece of dynamite. You can tap it with a pencil all day, but you’ll never make it explode. You hit it once with a hammer: Bang! Get serious. Do 40 hard minutes, not an hour and half of nonsense. It’s so much more rewarding.
286
Strangely enough, when the Sugababes’ ‘Freak Like Me’ went to number 1, which was built around my ‘Are ‘Friends’ Electric’ song, I had another song called ‘Rip’ go to number 1 in the Kerrang TV chart, so I was pulling new people in from very different areas of musical interest. That was quite an amazing week.
287
All women do have a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what’s sexy or cool or tough.
288
There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.
289
I try to tell all the – not even the kids, even people older than me – to just be themselves. Don’t wear what I wear ’cause I wear it; wear what you like.
290
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
291
When someone hands you a flyer, it’s like they’re saying here you throw this away.
292
I’m, like, really cute.
293
If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude.
294
If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don’t like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.
295
We are like chameleons, we take our hue and the color of our moral character, from those who are around us.
296
I think that inside every adult is the heart of a child. We just gradually convince ourselves that we have to act more like adults.
297
Along the way, let’s never forget that once we were children and that we were all playing together without distinction of skin color, society level, or where people come from. Adults need to remember to play and to be more childlike in our behavior. We’ve forgotten what that childlike experience was like.
298
I like to be a tiger roaming the jungle or an eagle soaring the skies.
299
A career is like a house: it’s made of many bricks, and each brick has the same value, because without any one of them, the house would collapse.
300
Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.
301
When I was a child I thought I saw an angel. It had wings and kinda looked like my sister. I opened the door so some light could come into the room, and it sort of faded away. My mother said it was probably my Guardian Angel.
302
Personally I’m always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.
303
If I was to go to sleep before midnight, I would feel weird about myself, like I wasted a day. My most productive hours are between midnight and five.
304
Act the way you’d like to be and soon you’ll be the way you act.
305
I like the term ‘misunderstood.’ But I am a bit of a bad boy.
306
Your attitude is like a box of crayons that color your world. Constantly color your picture gray, and your picture will always be bleak. Try adding some bright colors to the picture by including humor, and your picture begins to lighten up.
307
The strongest governments on earth cannot clean up pollution by themselves. They must rely on each ordinary person, like you and me, on our choices, and on our will.
Chai Jing
308
One of things I like about looking at pictures when you’re young and also meeting back with old friends you haven’t seen in a long time is, for me, it’s a glimpse of who I was.
309
Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.
310
The magnificent cosmos is a palace that has the sun and the moon as its lamps and the stars as its candles; time is like a rope or ribbon hung within it, on to which the Glorious Creator each year threads a new world.
311
Politics is like football; if you see daylight, go through the hole.
312
The Indian education system, like the Indian bureaucratic system, is Victorian and still in the 19th century. Our schools are still designed to produce clerks for an empire that does not exist anymore.
313
One must think like a hero to behave like a merely decent human being.
May Sarton
314
Nobody‘s perfect, so don’t go out there and try to act like you got to live a perfect life. Be yourself, and be happy with it.
315
Why don’t you get a haircut? You look like a chrysanthemum.
P. G. Wodehouse
316
The world is wide. No two days are alike, nor even two hours, neither were there ever two leaves of a tree alike since the creation of all the world; and the genuine productions of art, like those of nature, are all distinct from each other.
317
I don’t trip on that much. I just like to enjoy life and be happy.
318
We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.
319
Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.
320
I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
Noel Coward
321
I tried being reasonable, I didn’t like it.
322
Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them.
William Arthur Ward
323
Life is like riding a bicycle: you don’t fall off unless you stop pedaling.
Claude Pepper
324
If I see a problem, I like to think if there’s a better way to do it.
Mark Rober
325
I got different moods. Like, if I’m in a good mood, I listen to ‘Up’ by Thug. If I’m not in a good mood, I’ll listen to ‘King TROUP’ – that’s a real emotional one.
326
Look before you leap for as you sow, ye are like to reap.
327
Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.
Joe Theismann
328
Everyone feels like family and I am back in the city that I love.
329
I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.
Jerome K. Jerome
330
I always had a fantasy of being a chef, because I like kitchen life.
331
Sometimes I feel like rap music is almost the key to stopping racism.
332
The petty man is eager to make boasts, yet desires that others should believe in him. He enthusiastically engages in deception, yet wants others to have affection for him. He conducts himself like an animal, yet wants others to think well of him.
333
The problem is that at a lot of big companies, process becomes a substitute for thinking. You’re encouraged to behave like a little gear in a complex machine. Frankly, it allows you to keep people who aren’t that smart, who aren’t that creative.
334
I feel like God gives you what you deserve. Whatever that time is, you get what you deserve.
335
It’s just like, damn – I’m competing with myself.
336
The film is made in the editing room. The shooting of the film is about shopping, almost. It’s like going to get all the ingredients together, and you’ve got to make sure before you leave the store that you got all the ingredients. And then you take those ingredients and you can make a good cake – or not.
337
Time flies like an arrow – but fruit flies like a banana.
338
I’m a mirror. If you’re cool with me, I’m cool with you, and the exchange starts. What you see is what you reflect. If you don’t like what you see, then you’ve done something. If I’m standoffish, that’s because you are.
339
I hate all politics. I don’t like either political party. One should not belong to them – one should be an individual, standing in the middle. Anyone that belongs to a party stops thinking.
340
People go to the zoo and they like the lion because it’s scary. And the bear because it’s intense, but the monkey makes people laugh.
Lorne Michaels
341
A good compromise, a good piece of legislation, is like a good sentence; or a good piece of music. Everybody can recognize it. They say, ‘Huh. It works. It makes sense.’
342
Love is like war: easy to begin but very hard to stop.
343
The eagle has no fear of adversity. We need to be like the eagle and have a fearless spirit of a conqueror!
344
Hope is like peace. It is not a gift from God. It is a gift only we can give one another.
345
Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering – because you can’t take it in all at once.
346
It doesn’t matter how many A-levels you have, what kind of a degree you have, if you have good manners, people will like you.
347
I struggle with reading a bit. I’m slightly dyslexic, so reading takes me quite a while, and in general, I’m not a big book reader at all. And something like ‘Game of Thrones’ seems very daunting to me!
348
A sincere diplomat is like dry water or wooden iron.
Joseph Stalin
349
I feel like I’m kind of lazy, but I keep the yard looking good.
350
The secret of happiness is variety, but the secret of variety, like the secret of all spices, is knowing when to use it.
Daniel Gilbert
351
I would like nuclear fusion to become a practical power source. It would provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, without pollution or global warming.
352
Rebellion without truth is like spring in a bleak, arid desert.
353
I am a woman in process. I’m just trying like everybody else. I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it. Life is never dull.
354
We have to confront ourselves. Do we like what we see in the mirror? And, according to our light, according to our understanding, according to our courage, we will have to say yea or nay – and rise!
355
You cannot look up at the night sky on the Planet Earth and not wonder what it’s like to be up there amongst the stars. And I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the cosmos.
356
The thing to do, it seems to me, is to prepare yourself so you can be a rainbow in somebody else’s cloud. Somebody who may not look like you. May not call God the same name you call God – if they call God at all. I may not dance your dances or speak your language. But be a blessing to somebody. That’s what I think.
357
I like to embrace natural beauty. I try to get at least 8 hours of sleep, drinking a lot of water and exercising.
358
At the end of the day, if you feel like you’re a good person, and your intentions are good, then that’s all that matters.
359
I like to play blackjack. I’m not addicted to gambling. I’m addicted to sitting in a semi-circle.
360
Propaganda is a soft weapon; hold it in your hands too long, and it will move about like a snake, and strike the other way.
361
All the screen cowboys behaved like real gentlemen. They didn’t drink, they didn’t smoke. When they knocked the bad guy down, they always stood with their fists up, waiting for the heavy to get back on his feet. I decided I was going to drag the bad guy to his feet and keep hitting him.
362
Look at a football field. It looks like a big movie screen. This is theatre. Football combines the strategy of chess. It’s part ballet. It’s part battleground, part playground. We clarify, amplify and glorify the game with our footage, the narration and that music, and in the end create an inspirational piece of footage.
363
Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas.
364
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.
365
Courage is like love; it must have hope for nourishment.
366
I wouldn’t limit myself to nothing. I feel like I am limitless.
367
Going to work for a large company is like getting on a train. Are you going sixty miles an hour or is the train going sixty miles an hour and you’re just sitting still?
368
Giving birth is like taking your lower lip and forcing it over your head.
369
One can never know for sure what a deserted area looks like.
370
Freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought.
371
Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
372
The artist, like the God of the creation, remains within or behind or beyond or above his handiwork, invisible, refined out of existence, indifferent, paring his fingernails.
373
Writing free verse is like playing tennis with the net down.
374
There’s nothing like spending an evening with an audience every night.
375
Power is like being a lady… if you have to tell people you are, you aren’t.
376
I like being a villain. Villains are more exciting.
377
Nothing builds self-esteem and self-confidence like accomplishment.
378
Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
Amelia Earhart
379
Going to hospital is rather like going to an alien planet.
380
It’s very important to like the people you work with. Otherwise, your job is going to be quite miserable.
381
Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made.
Otto von Bismarck
382
We are all now connected by the Internet, like neurons in a giant brain.
383
Moral authority comes from following universal and timeless principles like honesty, integrity, treating people with respect.
384
One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.
385
Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.
386
Older women know who they are, and that makes them more beautiful than younger ones. I like to see a face with some character. I want to see lines. I want to see wrinkles.
387
Governing a great nation is like cooking a small fish – too much handling will spoil it.
388
The only think I like better than talking about Food is eating.
John Walters
389
I like criticism. It makes you strong.
390
I’m like a ‘comeback kid’ – you can’t keep me down for long!
391
The human brain works as a binary computer and can only analyze the exact information-based zeros and ones (or black and white). Our heart is more like a chemical computer that uses fuzzy logic to analyze information that can’t be easily defined in zeros and ones.
392
Canada is like a loft apartment over a really great party.
393
My story is going to be completely different than someone else’s story in terms of hard work. What I might feel like is hard work, another person is dying to do.
394
It still strikes me as strange that anyone could have any moral objection to someone else’s sexuality. It’s like telling someone else how to clean their house.
395
If you go to a restaurant and you go with people you like, your food will always taste really good.
396
A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.
397
Relationships are like traffic lights. And I just have this theory that I can only exist in a relationship if it’s a green light.
398
A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it.
399
If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
400
Being president is like being a jackass in a hailstorm. There’s nothing to do but to stand there and take it.
401
Truth, like light, blinds. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.
402
Corruption is like a ball of snow, once it’s set a rolling it must increase.
403
Everything is a miracle. It is a miracle that one does not dissolve in one’s bath like a lump of sugar.
404
‘Tis easy enough to be pleasant, When life flows along like a song; But the man worth while is the one who will smile when everything goes dead wrong.
405
Sheep, like people, are ungovernable when hungry.
406
Civilization is like a thin layer of ice upon a deep ocean of chaos and darkness.
407
You say to a brick, ‘What do you want, brick?’ And brick says to you, ‘I like an arch.’ And you say to brick, ‘Look, I want one, too, but arches are expensive and I can use a concrete lintel.’ And then you say: ‘What do you think of that, brick?’ Brick says: ‘I like an arch.’
Louis Kahn
408
I like fish, and I also like bear’s paws. If I cannot have the two together, I will let the fish go, and take the bear’s paws. So, I like life, and I also like righteousness. If I cannot keep the two together, I will let life go, and choose righteousness.
409
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.
410
If you’re trying to create a company, it’s like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the right proportion.
411
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.
412
The attitude of the West and of Russia towards a crisis like Ukraine is diametrically different. The West is trying to establish the legality of any established border. For Russia, Ukraine is part of the Russian patrimony.
413
I hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I always say ‘him’ rather than ‘her.’ Maybe it’s because of my generation, but I don’t like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent male.
414
I admit, I don’t look like the athlete of the day’s supposed to look. My belly‘s just a little big, my heinie’s just a little big, but, brother, I am bad, and they know I’m bad.
415
True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island… to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing.
416
Life is like unto a long journey with a heavy burden.
Tokugawa Ieyasu
417
Joy descends gently upon us like the evening dew, and does not patter down like a hailstorm.
418
Talent without discipline is like an octopus on roller skates. There’s plenty of movement, but you never know if it’s going to be forward, backwards, or sideways.
419
I’ve made peace with the fact that the things that I thought were weaknesses or flaws were just me. I like them.
420
Life is like a wheel. Sooner or later, it always come around to where you started again.
421
Education is a continual process, it’s like a bicycle… If you don’t pedal you don’t go forward.
422
A woman should be like a single flower, not a whole bouquet.
423
Some people say I’ve got a five-octave range, which is ridiculous. That would mean I’d sing like Mariah Carey or that alien in ‘The Fifth Element.’ And I’m nothing like that blue alien. I’ve got a range of about 3 1/2 octaves.
424
The mind is like an iceberg, it floats with one-seventh of its bulk above water.
425
Our incomes are like our shoes; if too small, they gall and pinch us; but if too large, they cause us to stumble and to trip.
426
Not like Chinese food, where you eat it and then you feel hungry an hour later.
427
Don’t let it end like this. Tell them I said something.
Pancho Villa
428
Communication is a skill that you can learn. It’s like riding a bicycle or typing. If you’re willing to work at it, you can rapidly improve the quality of evry part of your life.
429
Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more.
430
The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like men, but that men will begin to think like computers.
431
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.
432
The best thing about being a DJ is making people happy. There is nothing like seeing people get up from a table to dance or the expression on their face when they hear a song they love. I also love to educate people on music they have never heard.
Chelsea Leyland
433
I’ve always been an underdog. I feel like I beat the odds.
434
I think self-discipline is something, it’s like a muscle. The more you exercise it, the stronger it gets.
Daniel Goldstein
435
Be like a postage stamp. Stick to one thing until you get there.
436
You’re beautiful, like a May fly.
437
One’s only rival is one’s own potentialities. One’s only failure is failing to live up to one’s own possibilities. In this sense, every man can be a king, and must therefore be treated like a king.
438
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
439
Sex is like money; only too much is enough.
440
If cattle and horses, or lions, had hands, or were able to draw with their feet and produce the works which men do, horses would draw the forms of gods like horses, and cattle like cattle, and they would make the gods’ bodies the same shape as their own.
Xenophanes
441
I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.
Malcolm Muggeridge
442
But words are things, and a small drop of ink, Falling like dew, upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
443
What is a poet? An unhappy person who conceals profound anguish in his heart but whose lips are so formed that as sighs and cries pass over them they sound like beautiful music.
444
Because forgiveness is like this: a room can be dank because you have closed the windows, you’ve closed the curtains. But the sun is shining outside, and the air is fresh outside. In order to get that fresh air, you have to get up and open the window and draw the curtains apart.
445
I like to be quiet and play guitar and just chill.
446
Capitalism without bankruptcy is like Christianity without hell.
Frank Borman
447
It has been said that arguing against globalization is like arguing against the laws of gravity.
448
Nations, like stars, are entitled to eclipse. All is well, provided the light returns and the eclipse does not become endless night. Dawn and resurrection are synonymous. The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.
449
What is a soul? It’s like electricity – we don’t really know what it is, but it’s a force that can light a room.
450
If you are the kind of person who is waiting for the ‘right’ thing to happen, you might wait for a long time. It’s like waiting for all the traffic lights to be green for five miles before starting the trip.
451
In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock.
452
Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
453
We are imprisoned in the realm of life, like a sailor on his tiny boat, on an infinite ocean.
Anna Freud
454
History never looks like history when you are living through it.
455
Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it.
456
Wine and cheese are ageless companions, like aspirin and aches, or June and moon, or good people and noble ventures.
M. F. K. Fisher
457
Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.
458
It’s a dialogue, not a monologue, and some people don’t understand that. Social media is more like a telephone than a television.
459
I am a simple man who comes from a village, and villagers like us speak our mind. Now, in the process, if unknowingly my words came across as disrespectful or insulting, then I am deeply sorry. I don’t want to hurt anyone.
460
Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance.
461
Being sober on a bus is, like, totally different than being drunk on a bus.
Ozzy Osbourne
462
If you want to shine like a sun, first burn like a sun.
463
Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
464
Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.
Alexandre Dumas
465
A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
466
Future’s like an older brother to me, and Thug’s more like a brother my age.
467
I don’t care what I look like; it’s how people think of me. And I do care how people think of me. I want people to say, ‘Oh, she’s nice,’ rather than, ‘Oh, she’s so pretty.’
468
Everything we do is for the purpose of altering consciousness. We form friendships so that we can feel certain emotions, like love, and avoid others, like loneliness. We eat specific foods to enjoy their fleeting presence on our tongues. We read for the pleasure of thinking another person’s thoughts.
469
It takes a big idea to attract the attention of consumers and get them to buy your product. Unless your advertising contains a big idea, it will pass like a ship in the night. I doubt if more than one campaign in a hundred contains a big idea.
470
I made decisions that I regret, and I took them as learning experiences… I’m human, not perfect, like anybody else.
471
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.
472
I go to Paris, I go to London, I go to Rome, and I always say, ‘There’s no place like New York. It’s the most exciting city in the world now. That’s the way it is. That’s it.’
473
The Four Levels of Comedy: Make your friends laugh, Make strangers laugh, Get paid to make strangers laugh, and Make people talk like you because it’s so much fun.
474
I wish I could dress like a princess every day.
475
I love to go to the zoo. But not on Sunday. I don’t like to see the people making fun of the animals, when it should be the other way around.
476
Confidence is not, ‘They will like me’. Confidence instead is, ‘I’ll be fine if they don’t’.
477
I always like a good song: puts me in a good mood.
478
Movies are my religion and God is my patron. I’m lucky enough to be in the position where I don’t make movies to pay for my pool. When I make a movie, I want it to be everything to me; like I would die for it.
479
Success has a simple formula: do your best, and people may like it.
Sam Ewing
480
I like refried beans. That’s why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they’re just as good and we’re just wasting time. You don’t have to fry them again after all.
481
I try to apply colors like words that shape poems, like notes that shape music.
Joan Miro
482
I don’t blame or complain about things like the economy, the government, taxes, employees, gas prices, or any of the external things that I don’t have control over. The only thing I have control over is my response to these things.
483
I look in the mirror and see a few scars, but I like myself.
484
The truth is something that burns. It burns off dead wood. And people don’t like having the dead wood burnt off, often because they’re 95 percent dead wood.
485
Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the glimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time.
486
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.’
487
If I were to be Miss Universe, I will use my voice to influence the youth and I would raise awareness to certain causes like HIV awareness that is timely and relevant to my country which is the Philippines.
488
Cute is when a person’s personality shines through their looks. Like in the way they walk, every time you see them you just want to run up and hug them.
489
The great nations have always acted like gangsters, and the small nations like prostitutes.
490
I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family – and I don’t think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.
491
Sweet are the uses of adversity which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in his head.
492
Women are like cars: we all want a Ferrari, sometimes want a pickup truck, and end up with a station wagon.
493
It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn’t feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.
494
It is not your paintings I like, it is your painting.
495
America is dumb. It’s like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you – aggressive. My daughter is four; my boy is one. I’d like them to see America as a toy – a broken toy. Investigate it a little, check it out, get this feeling, and then get out.
496
Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us.
497
False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation to the object it supports.
498
Communism, like any other revealed religion, is largely made up of prophecies.
499
We must think and act like a nation of a billion people and not like that of a million people. Dream, dream, dream!
500
Fortune is like glass – the brighter the glitter, the more easily broken.
501
I’d like to thank the good Lord for making me a Yankee.
Joe DiMaggio
502
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
503
The difference between involvement and commitment is like ham and eggs. The chicken is involved; the pig is committed.
504
Those are my principles, and if you don’t like them… well, I have others.
505
Laws are like cobwebs, which may catch small flies, but let wasps and hornets break through.
506
The word ‘racism’ is like ketchup. It can be put on practically anything – and demanding evidence makes you a ‘racist.’
507
People like to say that the conflict is between good and evil. The real conflict is between truth and lies.
508
Like education, healthcare also needs to be given importance.
509
Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.
510
If you don’t like how things are, change it! You’re not a tree.
511
Genes are like the story, and DNA is the language that the story is written in.
512
I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.
513
The art of living is more like wrestling than dancing.
514
Marriage brings one into fatal connection with custom and tradition, and traditions and customs are like the wind and weather, altogether incalculable.
515
It’s weird… people say they’re not like apes. Now how do you explain football then?
516
I like feet. I definitely have a fetish. I love to see a man’s bare foot, but its got to be taken care of. If they’re not well manicured, you’ve got to wonder what the rest of him is like. I don’t want to get in bed with somebody and feel his gnarly feet.
517
The only way to get love is to be lovable. It’s very irritating if you have a lot of money. You’d like to think you could write a check: ‘I’ll buy a million dollars‘ worth of love.’ But it doesn’t work that way. The more you give love away, the more you get.
518
Life is like a book: one has to know when to turn the page.
519
The loss of a friend is like that of a limb; time may heal the anguish of the wound, but the loss cannot be repaired.
Robert Southey
520
In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.
521
I don’t have a religion. I believe in a God. I don’t know what it looks like but it’s MY god. My own interpretation of the supernatural.
522
I like to challenge myself. I like to learn – so I like to try new things and try to keep growing.
523
I like Kit-Kat, unless I’m with four or more people.
524
It only takes one person to mobilize a community and inspire change. Even if you don’t feel like you have it in you, it’s in you. You have to believe in yourself. People will see your vision and passion and follow you.
525
I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me – like food or water.
526
I like not fair terms and a villain’s mind.
527
No matter what shape or size you are, you should feel confident in your own skin. You should feel like a beautiful woman, no matter what!
528
The Great Depression, like most other periods of severe unemployment, was produced by government mismanagement rather than by any inherent instability of the private economy.
529
I’ve gotten to travel all over the world and meet all kinds of people and do all kinds of great things, so it’s, like, surreal. It just lets you know how time flies, especially when you’re having fun. It seems like time keeps going by faster as I get older.
530
Yes, you can lose somebody overnight, yes, your whole life can be turned upside down. Life is short. It can come and go like a feather in the wind.
