65
I already know what people are going to say about me, and judge me for the decisions that I’m making, and I’m going to be the one who has to deal with that, and nobody else. And that’s a lot.

71
72
73
I’ve been very lucky to have achieved a lot of the things that I dreamt of achieving as a young man. But, at the end of the day – and I truly believe this – it is not about achieving great wealth or success. Because they don’t bring happiness, ultimately.
74
Food is a lot of people’s therapy – when we say comfort food, we really mean that. It’s releasing dopamine and serotonin in your brain that makes you feel good.
75
76
77
If I could talk to my younger self, I would just say that the path to great things is filled with a lot of stumbles, suffering, and challenges along the way. But if you have the right attitude and know that hard times will pass – and you get up each time – you will reach your destination.
78
79
The idea of ‘Spoonful’ was that it doesn’t take a large quantity of anything to be good. If you have a little money when you need it, you’re right there in the right spot, that’ll buy you a whole lot.
80
81
82
83
84

For whatever reason, I didn’t succumb to the stereotype that science wasn’t for girls. I got encouragement from my parents. I never ran into a teacher or a counselor who told me that science was for boys. A lot of my friends did.
89
90
The African mind has a lot to contribute, not only to world understanding of the arts, but to an understanding of spiritualism. That is the contribution Africa will make to the world of the future – an injection of sanity into the environment of the universe itself.
91
92
I go through a lot of depression, and I know other people do, too, but I have an outlet that so many people don’t. If you have that inside of you and can’t get it out, what do you do?
93
You know, there’s nothing damnable about being a strong woman. The world needs strong women. There are a lot of strong women you do not see who are guiding, helping, mothering strong men. They want to remain unseen. It’s kind of nice to be able to play a strong woman who is seen.
94
95
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.
96
97
When it comes to time management, I talk a lot more about energy management. I try to give people 100% of my energy even if I’m giving them very little of my time.

107
Anything is possible. My background is a bad background, but a lot of people said I couldn’t do it. You can do anything if you put your mind to it.

113

119
When we win, I’m so happy I eat a lot. When we lose, I’m so depressed, I eat a lot. When we’re rained out, I’m so disappointed I eat a lot.
120
121
My personality‘s very obsessive-compulsive. I tend to fixate a lot.
122
A lot of what I’ve done as Nine Inch Nails has been governed by fear. I was trying to keep the songs in a framework that was tough, and I learnt a lot from Jesus and Mary Chain about how to bury nice pop songs in unlistenable noise – the idea being if you can get behind that wall, you find there’s a pearl inside.
123
I didn’t become an actor to have power, but it just happens that I have it and so I have a lot of opportunities.
124
I’m not a rich person financially, but I am in mind and soul. I have so much energy and strength, and I can do a lot of things that make me, and I think my fans, quite happy. When everything’s gone, music alone shall live on.
125
You learn a lot in life but there are a lot of tools and resources in school that help you grow professionally and personally for whatever goal you may want to achieve.
126
127

128
129
I feel confident imposing change on myself. It’s a lot more fun progressing than looking back. That’s why I need to throw curve balls.
130
A lot of times people look at the negative side of what they feel they can’t do. I always look on the positive side of what I can do.
131
Usually, a Brazilian doesn’t like to work hard in training, doesn’t like to stay focused. I trained a lot of Brazilian players. I had a problem with Ronaldo at Milan. It was not easy to get him fit! Ronaldo was 100kg but was the quickest in the 10 metre test!
132
133
134
135
Making mistakes is a lot better than not doing anything.
136
In getting older, I find myself becoming progressively more ineffectual in a lot of different ways, and part of that is down to no longer having the youthful feeling that what you’re doing has any true impact.
137
138
139
I do think there is a lot of potential if you have a compelling product and people are willing to pay a premium for that. I think that is what Apple has shown. You can buy a much cheaper cell phone or laptop, but Apple’s product is so much better than the alternative, and people are willing to pay that premium.
140
If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper middle class should even probably be cut further. But I think that people at the high end – people like myself – should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we’ve ever had it.
141
142
143
I have a lot of things to say and a lot of things to let out of me.
144
Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.

152
Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier ‘n puttin’ it back in.

158
159

161
If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans.
162
I grew up with an incredibly loving and supportive family that gave me the impression there were a lot of options for me out there.
163
The topic of leadership is a touchy one. A lot of leaders fail because they don’t have the bravery to touch that nerve or strike that chord. Throughout my years, I haven’t had that fear.
164
As you navigate through the rest of your life, be open to collaboration. Other people and other people’s ideas are often better than your own. Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.
165
I do have a vulnerable side. I think a lot of people have a misperception of me. They only see the tough, defensive, aggressive side. But every woman is vulnerable.
166
It takes a lot for me to be excited.
167
Really, running an underdog, insurgent political campaign against an opponent many folks think can’t be beat, and going out and meeting folks and talking about your ideas for America and Washington, is a lot of fun and a real privilege.
168
169
170
I am not someone who is ashamed of my past. I’m actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they, in turn, were my life lessons.
171
172
173
I think people who go through a lot, they’re aggressive.
174
A lot of hard work is hidden behind nice things.
175
To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
176
177
A lot of people can throw the drip on, but if you don’t layer your chain a certain way, it doesn’t complete the outfit.
178
If someone else is paying for it, food just tastes a lot better.
179
A lot of people attack the sea, I make love to it.
180
181
Things present themselves to you, and it’s how you choose to deal with them that reveals who you are. We all say a lot of things, don’t we, about who we are and how we think. But in the end it’s your actions, how you respond to circumstance that reveals your character.
182
A lot of our creative flow comes from a place of curiosity and exploration. It often feels like we’re excavating and asking questions and not just giving answers but really just exploring.
183
184
I think a lot of people have lost respect for the individual, you know, the individual, the person who doesn’t conform.
185
A lot of times I find that people who are blessed with the most talent don’t ever develop that attitude, and the ones who aren’t blessed in that way are the most competitive and have the biggest heart.
186
Don’t let negativity affect your vision. A lot of people have said harsh things, but I don’t let it affect me. If anything it gives me more enthusiasm and pushes me to do better in my career so I can prove them wrong.
187
188
189
No grand idea was ever born in a conference, but a lot of foolish ideas have died there.
190
191
192
There’s a lot of optimism in changing scenery, in seeing what’s down the road.
193
I was an only child and I had a mother and father who were just – there wasn’t a straight man in the house, and I mean that in a very nice way. They were fun, and we would laugh a lot.
194
You know, I look like a woman but I think like a man. And in this world of business, that has helped me a lot. Because by the time they think that I don’t know what’s goin’ on, I then got the money, and gone.
195
196
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.
197
I am convinced that material things can contribute a lot to making one’s life pleasant, but, basically, if you do not have very good friends and relatives who matter to you, life will be really empty and sad and material things cease to be important.
198
199
200
I was born and brought up in the countryside. I used to live in a sort of converted stables on the grounds of a castle, and I spent a lot of my childhood running around with a pretend sword pretending to be Robert the Bruce.
201
For me, education has never been simply a policy issue – it’s personal. Neither of my parents and hardly anyone in the neighborhood where I grew up went to college. But thanks to a lot of hard work and plenty of financial aid, I had the opportunity to attend some of the finest universities in this country.
202
203
204
205
206
I still have a lot to learn, and I still have a lot to prove.
207
I’m a pretty tough guy, you know. I’m a pretty hard man. I’ve got a lot of compassion, but I don’t waste time with people.
208
My idea of professionalism is probably a lot of people’s idea of obsessive.
209
210
A lot of people have their big dreams and get knocked down and don’t have things go their way. And you never give up hope, and you really just hold on to it. Hard work and perserverance. You just keep getting up and getting up, and then you get that breakthrough.
211
Asian parents, or a lot of parents in general, they have no idea what goes on in this industry. Mine were born in the Philippines, where it’s different, because it is about who you know, and who knows what you have to do to get to the top? So they had a lot of that skepticism.
212
There are a lot of ups and downs. But there are always people who have it worse.
213
214
I get a lot of the ideas when I’m resting – either when I’m meditating or getting some kind of work done on my back, like physical therapy or acupuncture. That’s where I get my best ideas, maybe because I’m balancing my body.
215
216
Once you have a lot of success, you become a target in many ways.
217
218
I don’t want to get typecast and I’ve been doing a lot of stuff to make that happen and not be the case.
219
A house full of new furniture doesn’t mean a whole lot.
220
221
I think a lot of self-importance is a product of fear. And fear, living in sort of an un-self-examined fear-based life, tends to lead to narcissism and self-importance.
222
Boxing is a lot of white men watching two black men beat each other up.
223
224
Most of the people that I deal with are human. So I’ve had a lot of experience with that.
225
226
227
Organic food is the best for you, and I’m eating the best, a lot of fresh vegetables. I also keep myself hydrated. It’s all made a big difference to my performance in the gym.
228
I spent a lot of time on recce. It is a kind of creative chaos, but I like the sense of creative serendipity.
229
Regrets are something you can’t really have as an actor, because ultimately you’ll end up destroying yourself… there’s a lot of disappointment in this business.
230
The way I make art – the way a lot of people make art – is as an extension of language and communication, where references are incredibly important.
231
I never regret or sit back and think that I shouldn’t have said something. There are a lot of people who tell me that you shouldn’t say this or that or should keep quiet, and I really think that I can either be true to my conscience or can live a fake life by staying quiet.
232
I think a simple rule of business is, if you do the things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress.
233
Jin-hyung had a lot of cool parts in ‘Fake Love.’ Jin-hyung is the main character.
234
I’m investing. I’m taking a lot of bitcoin, selling it as the price goes up, and putting it into real estate. Because then if bitcoin goes to zero – which, it’s an experiment, it could – I won’t be on the street.
235
236
I think a lot of what I do is for my own personal healing.
237
The cars we drive say a lot about us.
238
239
240
If you look at space companies, they’ve failed either because they’ve had a technical solution where success was not a possible outcome, they were unable to attract a critical mass of talent, or they just ran out of money. The finish line is usually a lot further away than you think.
241
242
I have made a lot of mistakes, but I am proud of them all.
243
Being a captain means a lot – it’s not just about wearing the armband.
244
My skin is hard when it comes to my music. But with my movies, I’m still a virgin in a lot of ways. I’m not used to being shot down for no reason.
245
246
I like to play cards. I’m not very good, because I don’t want to calculate, I just play by instinct. But I’ve learned a lot of business philosophy by playing poker.
247
We have a lot to gain through furthering stem cell research, but medical breakthroughs should be fundamentally about saving, not destroying, human life. Therefore, I support stem cell research that does not destroy the embryo.
248
There’s definitely a lot of responsibility to keep the good energy going.
249
George Carlin‘s album, ‘Class Clown,’ came out when I was in high school. I memorized a lot of that album. I’d come home from school, put it on, and listen over and over. I started memorizing it. I don’t even know why. I loved it so much I memorized it.
250
251
252
I’ve had a lot of plastic surgery, and I’m completely honest about it.
253
I always say: ‘Share your happiness with the world, give other people that happiness and let it come back,’ but some things make me question it. I don’t know if I want some people to know that I am happy. I think a lot of people want to take it away from you, and that’s really scary.
254
I don’t pay good wages because I have a lot of money; I have a lot of money because I pay good wages.
255
In open source, we feel strongly that to really do something well, you have to get a lot of people involved.

259
260
I’ve been very careful to always make clear that I am a real person. That’s why I’m on social media a lot.
261
Women in particular need to keep an eye on their physical and mental health, because if we’re scurrying to and from appointments and errands, we don’t have a lot of time to take care of ourselves. We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own ‘to do’ list.
262
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.
263
Pro wrestling is not fake; it’s sports entertainment. We go out there and we perform, and a lot of what we do out there is real, but we’re not going to insult anyone’s intelligence – there is a predetermined winner. It’s just the fans don’t know who it is, and that’s what makes it so intriguing.
264
I’m learning a lot about myself being alone, and doing what I’m doing.
265
266
You can only do three things with your money. You can spend it. You can invest it. Or you can give it away. And if you invest it, you’re really just getting more money to give away or buy something. How many things can you buy? So I don’t really think there’s a lot of choices.
267
Anyone who says he can see through women is missing a lot.
268
I feel a lot of support from the people of Penrith and the Blue Mountains and will always remember the amazing welcome home I received after the London Olympics. But more importantly, it’s during hard times that Westies come together.
269
I’ve been through a lot of experiences in my life being in the biggest band in the world.
270
There are quite a lot of YouTube clips of me that have gone viral. One that I think of is of a young woman at a lecture I was giving – she came from Liberty University, which is a ludicrous religious institution. She said, ‘What if you are wrong?’ and I answered that rather briefly, and that’s gone viral.
271
So that the record of history is absolutely crystal clear. That there is no alternative way, so far discovered, of improving the lot of the ordinary people that can hold a candle to the productive activities that are unleashed by a free enterprise system.
272
273
274
It’s been a long road for me, with a lot of ups and downs. Thankfully there have been more ups than there have been downs. For me, what brings me down has only made me stronger because of it.
275
I don’t think a lot of people understand the situations I’ve been involved in and the way I grew up. I took myself away from it and made something out of a bad situation.
276
277
I used to own two homes in Atlanta. But it was a lot of trouble. There are leaky roofs; you have to call people. It takes up too much time to own property everywhere. Now I stay at the St. Regis. I used to like cars a lot, too. I had 25 of them: Porsches, Ferraris.
278
279
A lot of people tend to chew up the scenery. I’m a firm believer in less is more, especially on the big screen.
280
People bought bitcoin because they thought it would be worth more tomorrow. And a lot of people got lucky. But we’re not seeing real people use bitcoin. And we don’t know what problem it solves. Now, blockchain, I think, is a genius advancement in technology.
281
I tell you, gospel music is very uplifting. It’s great. It’s just a lot of fun to write, and it’s wonderful for the heart, soul, mind, and spirit. It’s just great.
282
283
284
I’ve learned a lot. I’ve seen a lot. I’ve grown a lot.
285
A lot of people believe Italian food is tasty because there are a lot of ingredients. But they don’t understand that the reason why it’s tasty is because there are less ingredients than in any other cuisine.
286
287
I like vintage a lot.
288
289
In football, I don’t have a lot of friends. The people who I really trust, there are not many… Most of the time, I’m alone.
290
291
I sort of set myself really high standards which is good and bad. If I know that I’ve done all I can to prepare, that’s when I race the best and in ’09 I was going through a lot of emotional ups and downs and I was never as fit as I would have liked to have been. So I never felt comfortable.
292
As my kids grow up, I think a lot about the lessons and values I want to impart to them. More than any particular skill or even financial support, I believe perseverance and resilience will serve them best, regardless of what curveball life inevitably throws them.
293
294
In this hectic life, we have no time to take care of ourselves, hence massage is needed for rejuvenation and stress reduction. A lot of people are looking for quick fixes: like, they are taking medications, and they are doing other things which are not healthy. But massage is very holistic and natural.
295
There’s a lot of automation that can happen that isn’t a replacement of humans but of mind-numbing behavior.
296
There’s no prerequisites to worthiness. You’re born worthy, and I think that’s a message a lot of women need to hear.
297
You don’t appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged woman: Stuff you pay good money for in later life.
298
299
A lot of cinematography is intuition. It’s an art, not a formula.
300
The triple is the most exciting play in baseball. Home runs win a lot of games, but I never understood why fans are so obsessed with them.
301
302
303
I never wanted to give in to my condition. My life changed a lot but I didn’t want it to change my dreams or goals.
304
305
306
I’m always looking for a new challenge. There are a lot of mountains to climb out there. When I run out of mountains, I’ll build a new one.
307
308
309
310
I say ‘here’s the thing’ a lot, both to alert people that I’m about to say something important and to give myself a moment to figure out what that important thing might be, because my head is so often completely empty.
311
I enjoyed the position I was in as a tennis player. I was to blame when I lost. I was to blame when I won. And I really like that, because I played soccer a lot too, and I couldn’t stand it when I had to blame it on the goalkeeper.
312
313
I experienced bullying a lot. I was an only child, and I was kind of a small kid with a big mouth, and so I always got myself in trouble.
314
With all the globalisation that has taken place, countries are a lot more interdependent and therefore ‘coupled.’
315
316
We all strive for balance, often moving to extremes to find ourselves somewhere in the middle where we can sustainably exist in optimal inspiration. Working toward balance takes a lot of ingredients. We need courage, reflection, attention, action, and a push-and-pull relationship between effort and relaxation.
317
There’s a lot of ‘Silent Hill’ in the Upside Down, which people have noticed.
318
319
I keep telling myself to calm down, to take less of an interest in things and not to get so excited, but I still care a lot about liberty, freedom of speech and expression, and fairness in journalism.
320
321
I’m lucky to be surrounded by incredibly talented people at Pixar, of course, and I learn a lot from them each and every day.
322
323
324
325
326
It takes a lot of time to be a genius, you have to sit around so much doing nothing, really doing nothing.
327
I think beta males on an evolutionary basis are much more successful than the alpha males are. You don’t hear much about us, but there’s a lot more of us out there.
328
The intersection of law, politics, and technology is going to force a lot of good thinking.
329
I’d say I’m moody, I’d say I’m temperamental. But within my certain group of friends and family, I’m very open and outgoing and joke around a lot.
330
331
332
333
I look at a lot of artists. I’m inspired by – I suppose I shouldn’t say ‘inspired,’ but it’s not really influenced. I am inspired. Art comes from art.
334
Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex… It takes a touch of genius – and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.
335
336
You don’t know what people are really like until they’re under a lot of stress.
337
338
339
340
No one will improve your lot if you do not yourself.
341
342
‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond‘ and ‘Wish You Were Here’ are standout tracks. ‘Comfortably Numb’ is another one. ‘High Hopes‘ from ‘The Division Bell’ is one of my favorite all-time Pink Floyd tracks. ‘The Great Gig in the Sky,’ ‘Echoes,’ there’s lot of them.
343
I have a lot of other stuff to accomplish before I get to kids. Whenever the time is right, I’ll just know. If I had a girl, she’d probably be really rebellious. She would be like a bundle of karma. I would love to bring them up in Barbados.
344
People like me sound like a lot of big cannons.
345
We need to internalize this idea of excellence. Not many folks spend a lot of time trying to be excellent.
346
There comes a point in your life when you realize how quickly time goes by, and how quickly it has gone. Then it really speeds up exponentially. With that, I think you start to put a lot of things into context; you start to see how huge the world is, and really, the universe.
347
A lot of fashion is really inspired by vintage and it’s the forefront of fashion.
348
349
350
Now I’m president. I get to meet a lot of other company presidents. They’re such weird people. I’m fascinated by them. I use some of them as enemy characters in our games.
351
Self-talk, for me, has been the biggest thing in my life. A lot of us have a dialogue that is crap. It’s a crappy dialogue. We live in a world right now that is very external. Everything is very on the surface. Superficial. Everything. And what we’re telling ourselves is what we see on TV.
352
There’s a lot more power in calm than in vituperation.
353
354
Behind every successful man there’s a lot of unsuccessful years.
355
356
My job is making money, helping other people make money. I am spending money, trying to make sure more people get rich, because you cannot spend a lot of money, right? So my job is spending money, helping others. This is a headache.
357
A lot of times the interview relies not so much on the interviewee, but on the interviewer.
358
359
360
It doesn’t take a lot of strength to hang on. It takes a lot of strength to let go.
361
362
When you don’t know that you don’t know, it’s a lot different than when you do know that you don’t know.
363
A lot of people think that addiction is a choice. A lot of people think it’s a matter of will. That has not been my experience. I don’t find it to have anything to do with strength.
364
I’ve worked under a lot of managers, whether it’s the national team or at St Mirren and everyone has their moments. I think it is important, you can’t just let things pass if they are not good enough.
365
In all my characters, I try to find an iota of myself, and in Castle, I found a lot. He gets away with a lot, so that’s fun.
366
I’m very mature for my age, but I’m also innocent in a lot of ways.
367
Being able to give someone a hug from the heart, it’s healing. It’s healing for yourself and healing for others, and we need a lot of that.
368
Working with great people makes you great; you learn a lot and it also gives you the experience and confidence to move on with your own career.
369
370
There is a lot I need to thank God for, everyday. But I think I am blessed because I have a very loving, understanding and supporting family.
371
372
Vision 2030 is about a lot of big opportunities, so Aramco is one of them, Neom another opportunity.
373
I had no idea that being your authentic self could make me as rich as I’ve become. If I had, I’d have done it a lot earlier.
374
Beauty has a lot to do with character.
375
376
377
I have taken lot of risks in life, and I believe that life is about taking risks.
378
379
380
I put a lot of pressure on myself. I think something’s not good enough, and I won’t stop until I feel like I’ve made it. I’m never satisfied.
381
382
383
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life. I wouldn’t say musically, though.
384
385
Fishing is quite a good metaphor for life. You do your prep, you do your thinking, you put your bait out, and you wait, confident that you’ve done your groundwork. But a lot of life is luck.
386
387
388
I have done a lot of crazy things in my life, and I do not regret anything.
389
Want to learn to eat a lot? Here it is: Eat a little. That way, you will be around long enough to eat a lot.
390
Confidence has a lot to do with interviewing – that, and timing.
391
392
Knowing is not understanding. There is a great difference between knowing and understanding: you can know a lot about something and not really understand it.
393
We talk a lot about hope, helping, and teamwork. Our whole message is that we are more powerful together.
394
A lot of people go on this journey of finding themselves and then eventually realize that their true self wasn’t on the outside but it’s always been there.
395
Showing up is not all of life – but it counts for a lot.
396
For the most part, that message hasn’t changed a lot over the years – love is still love, and heartbreak is still heartbreak.
397
If you go back to 1800, everybody was poor. I mean everybody. The Industrial Revolution kicked in, and a lot of countries benefited, but by no means everyone.
398
When you’re doing good, everybody praises you. But when everything’s all gone, a lot of people are nowhere to be found. So you always just believe in yourself, do it yourself and you won’t be let down.
399
400
401
402
403
I’m not as talented as others, but I have a determination and will that enable me to work a lot harder than anyone else.
404
405
A lot of people in our generation like to make excuses about little things that really don’t hinder them from doing what they want to. It always comes down to the work ethic.
406
The big difference between sex for money and sex for free is that sex for money usually costs a lot less.
407
There’s a lot of randomness in the decisions that people make.
408
Persuade thyself that imperfection and inconvenience are the natural lot of mortals, and there will be no room for discontent, neither for despair.
409
Things are going to get a lot worse before they get worse.
410
A friend is a lot of things, but a critic isn’t.
411
412
There’s a lot of people in this world who spend so much time watching their health that they haven’t the time to enjoy it.
413
I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don’t think that’s only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings. I think it really exists and is part of the human condition. I think in the course of your life you figure out ways to deal with that.
414
415
Once you’re a chess player, you spend a lot of time thinking about the game and you can’t get it completely out of your head.
416
A relationship requires a lot of work and commitment.
417
I’ve had a lot of ridiculous haircuts.
418
My idol is Emile Zola. He was a man of the left, so people expected of him a kind of ‘Les Miserables,’ in which the underdogs are always noble people. But he went out, and found a lot of ambitious, drunk, slothful and mean people out there. Zola simply could not – and was not interested in – telling a lie.
419
420
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.
421
Marriage is miserable unless you find the right person that is your soulmate and that takes a lot of looking.
422
I believe in throwing a lot of positive energy in the universe and hope for the best.
423
424
425
I make a lot of money and I’m worth every cent.
426
I was very innocent and shielded as a child, so I didn’t know a lot about music or dancing. When I was in Primary Six, no one would participate in a talent show, so I decided to go on. When the audience applauded me, I felt euphoric, and I started dancing right after that!
427
There’s a lot of noise in the world, and the Internet magnifies that energy.
428
429
And I’ve always worked on the principle that if it interests me enough to write about it, then it must interest a lot of other people.
430
431
I think, a lot of times, people just want to be cool, and to be in love is not cool. But I think it’s the coolest. I think love is the coolest thing that there is.
432
I always say the minute I stop making mistakes is the minute I stop learning and I’ve definitely learned a lot.
433
434
Whenever the price of cryptocurrency is rallying, people start spending a lot more.
435
You’ve gotta do things that make you happy. As women, we tend to give away a lot. We take care of a lot of people, and we can’t forget to take care of ourselves.
436
If you don’t know what you want, you end up with a lot you don’t.
437
438
439
440
I had no friends. I worried a lot.
441
442
443
The Internet is just bringing all kinds of information into the home. There’s just a lot of distraction, a lot of competition for the parent’s voice to resonate in the children’s ears.
444
If you dig it, do it. If you dig it a lot, do it twice.
445
I’m a wrestler with nine toes. I’m a wrestler who has been through a lot of battles. I get to do a lot of motivational speaking, and people are blown away and say, ‘You never quit. You keep coming back.’
446
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.
447
A lot of what the ‘Culture’ is about is a reaction to all the science fiction I was reading in my very early teens.
448
I haven’t got a lot of patience.
449
450
Creating a book and creating a collection involve a lot of editing.
451
452
Soup is a lot like a family. Each ingredient enhances the others; each batch has its own characteristics; and it needs time to simmer to reach full flavor.
453
I like playing sport, and I like doing physical stuff. I like hiking and I like climbing and I like playing sport. I do a lot. But I don’t like the term ‘exercising.’ I feel like with sport, you’re playing games. But with exercise, you’re literally just trying to stop yourself from dying too young. It’s weird.
454
Milestones have never really meant a lot. They probably will mean more when I’ve finished playing and actually reflect on what I have achieved.
455
War is big business. It’s a lot of money going to and fro, and unfortunately a lot of angst, and a lot of fear, and a lot of doubt. And eventually a lot of wonderful people, like soldiers, like men and women that are out there trying to do the best they can, they come back being wounded on many levels.
456
A lot of black guys always ask me, ‘Did Larry Bird really play that good?’ I said, ‘Larry Bird is so good it’s frightening.’
457
I grew up in a big family with a lot of kids around, and I definitely want to have children as well.
458
You are always learning; there is a lot of grey; don’t take things for granted.
459
460
461
I’m not a film buff. I don’t watch a lot of movies.
462
I dated a lot, but I never really had anyone who was worthy of an anniversary. And most girlfriends never made it to a year, anyway.
463
464
465
A lot of people always question, ‘What else can she do, what else can she do?’ And I’m going to show you.
466
I’ve done a lot of work to get where I’m at, but I have to keep working.
467
I have my own high standards for what I want in a partner and how I want to be treated. I bring a lot to the table. I’m not talking about material things but what I have to offer as a person – love and loyalty and all the things that make a good relationship.
468
I have always… expected a lot from myself.
469
I think there’s a lot of different kinds of love: not just between a boyfriend and girlfriend, but love with your family, love with the people around you. I think that’s really important and, I think, would really be a good thing for the world and make a better world for everybody.
470
471
There’s a lot of sacrifices you have to make to be the boss.
472
473
Life’s complicated and people do things for a lot of reasons.
474
Electronic medical records are, in a lot of ways, I think the aspect of technology that is going to revolutionize the way we deliver care. And it’s not just that we will be able to collect information, it’s that everyone involved in the healthcare enterprise will be able to use that information more effectively.
475
When you’ve seen a lot of bad stuff and just want to enjoy your life and be happy and have your kids happy and have your friends happy, you just have a value system where it raises the bar on what’s important.
476
477
I am humbled, gratified and overjoyed at the dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial in commemoration of my father’s leadership. It of course means a lot to our family. But more important, it is a great step forward for America.
478
479
Write your goals down in detail and read your list of goals every day. Some goals may entail a list of shorter goals. Losing a lot of weight, for example, should include mini-goals, such as 10-pound milestones. This will keep your subconscious mind focused on what you want step by step.
480
I cut off my dreadlocks, but I couldn’t face throwing them away. They were so hard to grow, man. There’s a lot of work goes into those things. Some people keep a diary or a photo album to remind them of their past lives – well, I’ve got hair. Who knows? One day, maybe my grandchildren might want to see it.
481
For a lot of people, most of their exposure to politics and politicians involves events on the campaign trail, interviews on cable news, or seeing a viral tweet here or there. But day to day, there’s so much more than anyone sees.
482
A lot of times when you keep it real with somebody, you can’t expect them to keep it real with you.
483
484
You just have to keep the same mentality of trying to prove yourself every single day. But it’s a lot of easier when you have people telling you how bad you are than when people are telling you how good you are.
485
486
If a lawyer, if a teacher, if a bus driver, if they’re on $40,000 and they get offered a lot more to go somewhere else, what do you think they’re going to do?
487
You’ll like this, not a lot, but you’ll like it.
488
With my music, I can express myself so much. A lot of the fans can sense that I’m relating to them something that’s quite personal.
489
490
Writing is my love. If you love something, you find a lot of time. I write for two hours a day, usually starting at midnight; at times, I start at 11.
491
492
493
Most people think when the world gets itself together, we’ll all be okay. I don’t see that situation arriving. I think one by one, we all free ourselves from the chains we have chained ourselves to. But I don’t think that suddenly some magic happens and the whole lot of us will all be liberated in one throw.
494
When I was younger, I used to do that a lot: I would hear a part of a song that would really relax me and then put it on repeat. That would send me to sleep. It was quite obvious classical music, people like Penguin Cafe Orchestra, Erik Satie, Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel.
495
I wanted to go to drama school, but when I got the part in ‘Falling,’ I got an agent, so it seemed a good idea to work. I always did a lot of singing and dancing, so I am glad it worked out that way. I would like to study stage acting at some point, though.
496
Becoming famous was never what I wanted to do. There’s a lot of things that come with fame – it’s what people in the limelight have to do.
497
498
People would be a lot better off if they’d enjoy being single.
499
We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort.
500
I have a lot of natural gas on my properties.
501
You can tell a lot about a person from his underwear.
502
503
Ten percent of the big fish still remain. There are still some blue whales. There are still some krill in Antarctica. There are a few oysters in Chesapeake Bay. Half the coral reefs are still in pretty good shape, a jeweled belt around the middle of the planet. There’s still time, but not a lot, to turn things around.
504
I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.
505
506
Leo Burke was an unbelievable trainer. Him and Tom Prichard. Tom Prichard was not a big guy. And I learned a lot from him.
507
I think after Sandy Hook, when Obama went out, and he talked a lot about gun control and met with the parents, there was a sense that something was going to happen. But then, I guess, the power of special interests was greater than public sentiment.
508
509
I plant a lot of trees. I am a great believer in planting things for future generations. I loathe the now culture where you just live for today.
510
My glasses say a lot about me because I think me in a pair of sunglasses is an image that a lot of people would recognise.
511
People learn something every day, and a lot of times it’s that what they learned the day before was wrong.
512
It hasn’t always been easy. There’s a lot of hard moments. Sometimes you learn from the end of the bench. Sometimes you learn from injuries. Sometimes you learn the most through the hard things. If you can keep a good attitude and keep on working, eventually situations change, and you can put those things to use.
513
I don’t know about a lot of things. I read a lot, but a lot of it just passes through me. I don’t retain much. I am kind of dumb that way. Or maybe ‘I am a simple man,’ is a better way to say it.
514
A lot of country music is sad. I think most art comes out of poverty and hard times. It applies to music. Three chords and the truth – that’s what a country song is. There is a lot of heartache in the world.
515
516
517
I have a feeling that I make a very good friend, and I’m a good mother, and a good sister, and a good citizen. I am involved in life itself – all of it. And I have a lot of energy and a lot of nerve.
518
519
With any mannerisms or dialogue, you have to be careful you’re not just serving yourself. What happens with improving is a lot of times, if you’re not in the framework of the script, you’re just making everything easier so it fits you.
520
My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they’re going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life, I just spend drinking.
521
522
Basically my whole life revolves around soccer. I don’t take many vacations. Everything just gets put on the back burner because of my training. I miss out on a lot of weddings and family functions. But at the end of the day, I’m sitting here as a world champion, and it feels pretty good.
523
Let’s face it, a nice creamy chocolate cake does a lot for a lot of people; it does for me.
524
Everybody talks about wanting to change things and help and fix, but ultimately all you can do is fix yourself. And that’s a lot. Because if you can fix yourself, it has a ripple effect.
525
I’m healthy as can be – not an ache or a pain. A lot of my prayer is thanking the Lord that I am healthy. I pray for long life and good health.
526
527
I’ve been blessed to have a lot of mentors in my life that just have been good people and hard workers. Jae Crowder is one of them; Jimmy Butler is one of them.
528
We only have one life, and it is very precious, and there’s a lot we can do, and there’s a lot we should do.
529
530
I want to thank all our fans all around the world for their unconditional love and support. It really means a lot to me.
531
Great times, beautiful place, Boulder. In fact, that’s where I proposed to Jaye when I took her back there. In the parking lot of Baseline Liquors!
532
We’ve got to put a lot of money into changing behavior.
533
I don’t go to celebrity parties a lot. I don’t really enjoy them because I really like going for it in parties. And sometimes at celebrity parties, there is no dancing on tables because people… it can be a little judgmental at times. So I tend not to go unless it is Taylor Swift‘s birthday party; then it’s amazing.
534
535
In the globalized world that is ours, maybe we are moving towards a global village, but that global village brings in a lot of different people, a lot of different ideas, lots of different backgrounds, lots of different aspirations.
536
537
If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.
538
539
Hot Lips changed a lot in eleven years. Initially, Margaret Houlihan behaved as though a man were the only thing that could complete her life, and she didn’t see what richness her life contained. She gained a lot of self-esteem through the years, and she came to realize that what she did, what she offered, was valuable.
540
Whatever you go into, you have to go in there to be the best. There’s no formulas. It’s all about passion and honesty and hard work. It might look glamorous, but it takes a lot of hard work. The blessing with the arts is that you can do it forever.
541
When asked to explain this space, I often ask people to forget pretty much everything you’ve heard about blockchains, crypto-currencies, and bitcoin, and instead dumb it down a lot and think about something no more complex or intimidating than good old-fashioned database technology.
542
My experiences have taught me a lot and I’m happy with my learnings, if not with what I went through to learn.
543
A lot of music is mathematics. It’s balance.
544
I knew I wanted to do music, but leaving such a successful career one would think I’d kind of shot myself in the foot. I knew I made the right decision, and at the end of the day it’s up to me to get where I want to go, but it’s a lot to take on.
545
I used to suffer from a lot of regret while touring. Regret at having to leave certain places, people and situations, or just a beautiful day.
546
I’ve been compared to a lot of redheads. Here’s the thing though: you can look nothing like somebody, but if you both have red hair, all of a sudden people think you look exactly the same.
547
I eat a lot. I eat three times a day and I snack.
548
549
550
When you get to know a lot of people, you make a great discovery. You find that no one group has a monopoly on looks, brains, goodness or anything else. It takes all the people – black and white, Catholic, Jewish and Protestant, recent immigrants and Mayflower descendants – to make up America.
551
It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary.
552
You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.
553
554
