I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: ‘try being rich first’. See if that doesn’t cover most of it. There’s not much downside to being rich, other than paying taxes and having your relatives ask you for money. But when you become famous, you end up with a 24-hour job.

I would trade 20 white babies for an Asian baby. If I’m ever rich, I want a closet full of Asian babies. And I’ll just pull them out whenever I’m feeling down, you know? All kinds. Korean ones. Chinese ones. Vietnamese – not so much. My dad was in the war, and I hold a grudge.

Tourism is important because it can create sustainable local economies. I’d much rather have 1,000 tourists going up the Tambopata than 1,000 gold miners.
Frans Lanting
101
The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don’t mean to brag, but I’m so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we’ll get used to it. I’m sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk.
102
All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.

107
Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time.

111
There’s nothing more powerful than a woman who knows how to contain her power and not let it leak, standing firmly within it in mystery and silence. A woman who talks too much sheds her allure.

115
If you don’t love what you do, you won’t do it with much conviction or passion.

119
If you aren’t humble, whatever empathy you claim is false and probably results from some arrogance or the desire to control. But true empathy is rooted in humility and the understanding that there are many people with as much to contribute in life as you.
120
Don’t be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.
121
It’s the game of life. Do I win or do I lose? One day they’re gonna shut the game down. I gotta have as much fun and go around the board as many times as I can before it’s my turn to leave.

Frank Butler
123
Life is hard, but we make it much harder.
124
Such is life and life is such and after all it isn’t much. First a cradle. Then a hearse. It might have been better, but it could have been worse.
125
I realize everybody wants what they don’t have. But at the end of the day, what you have inside is much more beautiful than what’s on the outside!

129
Do not give in too much to feelings. A overly sensitive heart is an unhappy possession on this shaky earth.
130
Your life is like a play with several acts. Some of the characters who enter have short roles to play, others, much larger. Some are villains and others are good guys. But all of them are necessary; otherwise, they wouldn’t be in the play. Embrace them all, and move on to the next act.
131
The American Dream is a term that is often used but also often misunderstood. It isn’t really about becoming rich or famous. It is about things much simpler and more fundamental than that.
132
The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
133
Doom is a classic supervillain, akin to the Phantom of the Opera. It’s not about revenge so much as, like, ‘I’m back – now watch this!’ It all boils down to the music. The mask is a slight theme for people to enjoy, and it adds mystery.
134
Men have a much better time of it than women. For one thing, they marry later; for another thing, they die earlier.
135

John Hanning Speke

I assess the power of a will by how much resistance, pain, torture it endures and knows how to turn to its advantage.
141

145
A ship is always referred to as ‘she’ because it costs so much to keep one in paint and powder.
Chester W. Nimitz
146

147
Man’s mind is like a store of idolatry and superstition; so much so that if a man believes his own mind it is certain that he will forsake God and forge some idol in his own brain.
John Calvin
148
There are many ways to push for much-needed reforms: One way is to make a donation. It doesn’t matter much whether you contribute publicly or in a private way – either way is good. What matters is your true intention.
149
He who loses wealth loses much; he who loses a friend loses more; but he that loses his courage loses all.
150

153
Much learning does not teach understanding.
Heraclitus
154
I was 17 and out of school, living with my mom, starving, not eating, getting locked up, no focus, no guidance. When you ain’t got no guidance, you can’t do too much. But then I had my first son and started working. I got the right people around me.
155
Hold on with a bulldog grip, and chew and choke as much as possible.
156

Richard J. Needham
157
Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.

159
The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of using evil means in order to carry out his promises, and is already on the road to perdition.

That a man be willing, when others are so too, as far forth as for peace and defense of himself he shall think it necessary, to lay down this right to all things; and be contented with so much liberty against other men, as he would allow other men against himself.
161
I’m not possessive, I’m caring… Once you realize a person doesn’t want that much care, you automatically back off.
162
I don’t get recognized that much. That’s the best part of it. I tend to get things like, ‘You sound a lot like that guy on ‘Deadwood.’ And that’s lovely. I’ve been very fortunate. No giggling, screaming girls. None of that.
163
Take the attitude of a student, never be too big to ask questions, never know too much to learn something new.

165

166
Our decisions about transportation determine much more than where roads or bridges or tunnels or rail lines will be built. They determine the connections and barriers that people will encounter in their daily lives – and thus how hard or easy it will be for people to get where they need and want to go.
167
One of the best pieces of advice I ever got was from a horse master. He told me to go slow to go fast. I think that applies to everything in life. We live as though there aren’t enough hours in the day but if we do each thing calmly and carefully we will get it done quicker and with much less stress.
168
Having read the histories of other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and that the world’s surface being limited, the great object of present humanity should be to take as much of the world as it possibly could.
Cecil Rhodes
169
‘The Fast’ is tough; it’s not easy. It represents too much to too many people. But that’s what also makes it fun.

175
So much of what we do is ephemeral and quickly forgotten, even by ourselves, so it’s gratifying to have something you have done linger in people’s memories.
176
Live all you can; it’s a mistake not to. It doesn’t so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven’t had that what have you had?
177
All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece, but not too much.
178
The corporate grip on opinion in the United States is one of the wonders of the Western world. No First World country has ever managed to eliminate so entirely from its media all objectivity – much less dissent.

Kenneth Grahame

185
People spend so much time in their cars, and it’s a legal way to have fun by speeding a little bit or testing yourself a little bit, and you get to invest in your car. For some people, it becomes their baby.

187
I have never known much good done by those who affected to trade for the public good.
188
We are the children of a technological age. We have found streamlined ways of doing much of our routine work. Printing is no longer the only way of reproducing books. Reading them, however, has not changed.

198
I’m actually a very honest person, and sometimes I end up like, ‘Man, I said too much.’ It’s hard for me not to tell the truth when you ask me.
199
You can only learn so much from books. You can only learn so much from education. Ultimately, it is the wisdom of God that will carry you through in the toughest situations of life.
200
You can think of the entire Internet as a place where ideas embodied in cyberspace are having a war, and it’s not much different than the war of gods in heaven, which has been taking place since there’s been human beings.
201
When I was a sophomore at USC, I was a socialist, pretty much to the left. But not when I left the university. I quickly got wise. I’d read about what had happened to Russia in 1917 when the Communists took over.
202
The husband who decides to surprise his wife is often very much surprised himself.
203
If some countries have too much history, we have too much geography.
204
I have so much chaos in my life, it’s become normal. You become used to it. You have to just relax, calm down, take a deep breath and try to see how you can make things work rather than complain about how they’re wrong.
Tom Welling
205
No one would talk much in society if they knew how often they misunderstood others.
206
What connects two thousand years of genocide? Too much power in too few hands.
Simon Wiesenthal
207
I always prefer to believe the best of everybody, it saves so much trouble.
208
We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times… and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen.
209
I am not lost. I am very much alive.
210
The truth is, sex doesn’t mean that much to me now.
Lana Turner
211
Oftentimes, the most important decisions I make are the ones I don’t put much thought into.
212
One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.
213
Globalization has much potential. It could be the answer to many of the world’s seemingly intractable problems. But this requires strong democratic foundations based on a political will to ensure equity and justice.
214
A huge part of swimming for me is I love it, and it is so much fun.
Missy Franklin
215
It is sad not to love, but it is much sadder not to be able to love.
Miguel de Unamuno
216
Paradise is exactly like where you are right now… only much, much better.
217
You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.
218
It’s not all about strength, there is so much more involved, getting the horse into a rhythm, getting the horse to try for you, it’s being patient and I’m so glad to win Melbourne Cup and hopefully, it will help female jockeys from now on to get more of a go.
219
Talking is always positive. That’s why I talk too much.
220
Men are mortal. So are ideas. An idea needs propagation as much as a plant needs watering. Otherwise both will wither and die.
221
There’s so much more to a book than just the reading.
222
Yes, well I really hope I can make a difference, even in the smallest way. I am looking forward to helping as much as I can.
223
People are very reluctant to talk about their private lives but then you go to the internet and they’re much more open.
224
Too much agreement kills a chat.
Eldridge Cleaver
225
One of the things that has to be faced is the process of waiting to change the system, how much we have got to do to find out who we are, where we have come from and where we are going.
Ella Baker
226
The value of beauty and inspiration is very much underrated, no question. But I want to be clear: I’m not trying to be anyone’s savior. I’m just trying to think about the future and not be sad.
227
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering – and it’s all over much too soon.
228
When you lose a person you love so much, surviving the loss is difficult.
229
I love the theater as much as music, and the whole idea of getting across to an audience and making them laugh, making them cry – just making them feel – is paramount to me.
230
I don’t know who my grandfather was; I am much more concerned to know what his grandson will be.
231
I don’t think Africa gets as much credit as it should have on the world stage. People tend to think of us as coming from The Dark Continent, where nothing good goes on. That’s not true. A huge amount of, as I say, entrepreneurship goes on.
Nicky Oppenheimer
232
I care not much for a man’s religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.
233
No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.
Booker T. Washington
234
The priesthood is not really so much a gift as it is a commission to serve, a privilege to lift, and an opportunity to bless the lives of others.
235
Each person holds so much power within themselves that needs to be let out. Sometimes they just need a little nudge, a little direction, a little support, a little coaching, and the greatest things can happen.
Pete Carroll
236
Morality which depends upon the helplessness of a man or woman has not much to recommend it. Morality is rooted in the purity of our hearts.
237
Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure… than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.
238
Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer to your goal.
239
It’s easier to go down a hill than up it but the view is much better at the top.
240
I’m still growing, still learning. I’m still open and vulnerable enough to know there’s much more to be taught to me and learned by me. I hope I don’t reach my pinnacle on this earth where I think I know it all.
241
Few people even scratch the surface, much less exhaust the contemplation of their own experience.
Randolph Bourne
242
To explain all nature is too difficult a task for any one man or even for any one age. ‘Tis much better to do a little with certainty & leave the rest for others that come after you.
243
It was impossible to get a conversation going, everybody was talking too much.
244
Life is much shorter than I imagined it to be.
Abraham Cahan
245
Digital technology has several features that can make it much easier for teachers to pay special attention to all their students.
246
I don’t check Twitter as much or tweet as often because, honestly, sometimes social media is draining and brings out all of the negative things going on.
247
But short films are not inferior, just different. I think the short gives a freedom to film-makers. What’s appealing is that you don’t have as much responsibility for storytelling and plot. They can be more like a portrait, or a poem.
248
The magician and the politician have much in common: they both have to draw our attention away from what they are really doing.
249
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.
250
Much violence is based on the illusion that life is a property to be defended and not to be shared.
251
If you bungle raising your children, I don’t think whatever else you do matters very much.
252
I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it.
253
If I’m in Rome for only 48 hours, I would consider it a sin against God to not eat cacio e pepe, the most uniquely Roman of pastas, in some crummy little joint where Romans eat. I’d much rather do that than go to the Vatican. That’s Rome to me.
254
I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.
255
For if there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life.
256
I very much believe the Internet is indeed all it is cracked up to be.
257
Conversion is a change of masters. Will we not do as much for our new master, the Lord Jesus, as we did once for our old tyrant lusts?
258
It is much more important to know what sort of a patient has a disease than what sort of a disease a patient has.
259
Close to a billion people – one-eighth of the world’s population – still live in hunger. Each year 2 million children die through malnutrition. This is happening at a time when doctors in Britain are warning of the spread of obesity. We are eating too much while others starve.
260
If you make listening and observation your occupation you will gain much more than you can by talk.
261
I had many friends to help me to fall; but as to rising again, I was so much left to myself, that I wonder now I was not always on the ground. I praise God for His mercy; for it was He only Who stretched out His hand to me. May He be blessed for ever! Amen.
262
It’s time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I’d much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure.
263
Show me a person who has never made a mistake and I’ll show you somebody who has never achieved much.
264
Isn’t it amazing that we are all made in God’s image, and yet there is so much diversity among his people?
265
I’m much more energetic now; you might say live performance is my mission.
266
When you’re able to be honest with yourself about who you are and finally can present your authentic true self to the world, you feel so much better about yourself, and it makes it easier for everyone else to feel better about you.
267
Many people want the government to protect the consumer. A much more urgent problem is to protect the consumer from the government.
268
We should remember that one man is much the same as another, and that he is best who is trained in the severest school.
Thucydides
269
Awards are so unnecessary because I think we get so much out of our work just by doing it. The work is a reward in itself.
270
It would be a much better country if women did not vote. That is simply a fact. In fact, in every presidential election since 1950 – except Goldwater in ’64 – the Republican would have won, if only the men had voted.
271
Trust not too much to appearances.
272
We are not going to be able to operate our Spaceship Earth successfully nor for much longer unless we see it as a whole spaceship and our fate as common. It has to be everybody or nobody.
273
Humanity appreciates truth about as much as a squirrel appreciates silver.
274
If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities. The thing is to get the work done.
275
276
Love thy neighbor – and if he happens to be tall, debonair and devastating, it will be that much easier.
277
Why are women… so much more interesting to men than men are to women?
278
Culture hides much more than it reveals, and strangely enough, what it hides, it hides most effectively from its own participants.
Edward T. Hall
279
I’ve had so much plastic surgery, when I die they will donate my body to Tupperware.
280
I’ll promise to go easier on drinking and to get to bed earlier, but not for you, fifty thousand dollars, or two-hundred and fifty thousand dollars will I give up women. They’re too much fun.
Babe Ruth
281
If you don’t understand your limitations you won’t achieve much in your life.
282
Nothing matters very much, and few things matter at all.
Arthur Balfour
283
Men are so simple and so much inclined to obey immediate needs that a deceiver will never lack victims for his deceptions.
284
I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it – but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
285
You spend so much time in your head in life. And what yoga does is, it asks you to allow your head to be quiet, to allow it to be still, just for an hour and a half. Just deal with your body and your breath. And it’s a great workout. I love it.
286
If the present Congress errs in too much talking, how can it be otherwise in a body to which the people send one hundred and fifty lawyers, whose trade it is to question everything, yield nothing, and talk by the hour?
287
Time travel used to be thought of as just science fiction, but Einstein‘s general theory of relativity allows for the possibility that we could warp space-time so much that you could go off in a rocket and return before you set out.
288
I stay out of politics because if I begin thinking too much about politics, I’ll probably… drop writing children’s books and become a political cartoonist again.
289
I have dreams of becoming a professional pastry chef and having a little bakery – that’s how much I love baking. I love to cook in general, but my heart lies in desserts.
Kim Barnouin
290
Happiness is dependent on self-discipline. We are the biggest obstacles to our own happiness. It is much easier to do battle with society and with others than to fight our own nature.
291
Don’t believe the hype. I don’t care how many number ones you have at the box office, I don’t care how much they say you’re great, don’t believe it. Just stay in your lane and do what you’re supposed to do.
292
Technology is so much fun but we can drown in our technology. The fog of information can drive out knowledge.
Daniel J. Boorstin
293
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
294
All my life’s about is cracking up people and them cracking me up and trying not to think about dying. That doesn’t cost very much money.
295
One of the biggest curses from which India is suffering – I do not say that other countries are free from it, but I think our condition is much worse – is bribery and corruption. That really is a poison.
296
Hatred is gained as much by good works as by evil.
297
The future influences the present just as much as the past.
298
The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as that every child should be given the wish to learn.
John Lubbock
299
If you are not criticized, you may not be doing much.
300
It doesn’t pay to say too much when you are mad enough to choke. For the word that stings the deepest is the word that is never spoke, Let the other fellow wrangle till the storm has blown away, then he’ll do a heap of thinking about the things you didn’t say.
Jules Renard
301
You are so much more than the worst thing you’ve ever done.
302
Some people write heavily, some write lightly. I prefer the light approach because I believe there is a great deal of false reverence about. There is too much solemnity and intensity in dealing with sacred matters; too much speaking in holy tones.
303
I thought the attractions of being an astronaut were actually, not so much the Moon, but flying in a completely new medium.
304
Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need; the remainder is needed by others.
305
If you would only recognize that life is hard, things would be so much easier for you.
306
As the biggest library if it is in disorder is not as useful as a small but well-arranged one, so you may accumulate a vast amount of knowledge but it will be of far less value than a much smaller amount if you have not thought it over for yourself.
307
Lord, grant that I might not so much seek to be loved as to love.
308
Too much self-centered attitude, you see, brings, you see, isolation. Result: loneliness, fear, anger. The extreme self-centered attitude is the source of suffering.
309
If you can learn to love yourself and all the flaws, you can love other people so much better. And that makes you so happy.
310
There is a page in ‘Diary of a Worm’ in which the worm tells his sister that no matter how much time she spends looking in the mirror, her face will always look just like her rear end. Any girl that grew up with brothers can relate to the merciless teasing.
Doreen Cronin
311
Long lives aren’t natural. We forget that senior citizens are as much an invention as toasters or penicillin.
312
We are all products of our experiences, good and bad. Sometimes you learn as much from the negative experiences as you do from the positive.
313
The fate of love is that it always seems too little or too much.
Amelia Barr
314
The world is a fine place and worth the fighting for and I hate very much to leave it.
315
Growing up, my dad was ‘get a real job, don’t go pursuing your dreams, that’s how you become homeless.’ So, do I pick my family or do I pick my own happiness, and how much does my own happiness depend on my family?
316
No matter how much money you have, you can lose it.
317
When love is at its best, one loves so much that he cannot forget.
Helen Hunt Jackson
318
I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed.
Booker T. Washington
319
Many of us feel stress and get overwhelmed not because we’re taking on too much, but because we’re taking on too little of what really strengthens us.
320
People who know little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little.
321
Always forgive your enemies – nothing annoys them so much.
322
I do like my breasts. They’re great, so much fun. You can do what you like with them.
Denise Van Outen
323
I feel much freer now that I am certain the pope is the Antichrist.
324
Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge.
325
From reading too much, and sleeping too little, his brain dried up on him and he lost his judgment.
326
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?
327
Consciousness is much more than the thorn, it is the dagger in the flesh.
328
I feel sorry for kids these days. They get so much homework. Remember the days when we put a belt around our two books and carried them home? Now they’re dragging a suitcase. They have school all day, then homework from six until eleven. There’s no time left to be creative.
329
It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.
330
Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence.
331
Don’t be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
332
Those who give themselves to prayer should in a special manner have always a devotion to St. Joseph; for I know not how any man can think of the Queen of the angels, during the time that she suffered so much with the Infant Jesus, without giving thanks to St. Joseph for the services he rendered them then.
333
There is no royal flower strewn path to success. And if there is, I have not found it, for whatever success I have attained has been the result of much hard work and many sleepless nights.
Madam C. J. Walker
334
Political promises are much like marriage vows. They are made at the beginning of the relationship between candidate and voter, but are quickly forgotten.
335
Much of the time, the things we feel guilty about are not our issues. Another person behaves inappropriately or in some way violates our boundaries. We challenge the behavior, and the person gets angry and defensive. Then we feel guilty.
336
We are each made for goodness, love and compassion. Our lives are transformed as much as the world is when we live with these truths.
337
You can never protect yourself 100%. What you do is protect yourself as much as possible and mitigate risk to an acceptable degree. You can never remove all risk.
338
We are shallow because we have become enslaved by gross materialism, the glitter of gold and its equivalents, for which reason we think that only the material goods of this earth can satisfy us and we must therefore grab as much as can while we are able.
339
You know when you’re young you think you will always be. As you become more fragile, you reflect and you realize how much comfort can come from the past. Hymns can carry you into the future.
Andy Griffith
340
Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.
Harold S. Geneen
341
Money often costs too much.
342
While physics and mathematics may tell us how the universe began, they are not much use in predicting human behavior because there are far too many equations to solve. I’m no better than anyone else at understanding what makes people tick, particularly women.
343
It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.
344
Human felicity is produced not as much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen as by little advantages that occur every day.
345
I do not have much patience with a thing of beauty that must be explained to be understood. If it does need additional interpretation by someone other than the creator, then I question whether it has fulfilled its purpose.
346
Attachment to spiritual things is… just as much an attachment as inordinate love of anything else.
347
If you don’t get out of the box you’ve been raised in, you won’t understand how much bigger the world is.
348
It is much more secure to be feared than to be loved.
349
Before success comes in any man’s life, he’s sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That’s exactly what the majority of men do.
350
I get way too much happiness from good food.
351
The problem with leaderless uprisings taking over is that you don’t always know what you get at the other end. If you are not careful you could replace a bad government with one much worse!
352
So much of life is a negotiation – so even if you’re not in business, you have opportunities to practice all around you.
353
I can observe the game theory is applied very much in economics. Generally, it would be wise to get into the mathematics as much as seems reasonable because the economists who use more mathematics are somehow more respected than those who use less. That’s the trend.
354
When Christ died, He died for you individually just as much as if you’d been the only man in the world.
355
When Thomas Edison worked late into the night on the electric light, he had to do it by gas lamp or candle. I’m sure it made the work seem that much more urgent.
356
Searching is half the fun: life is much more manageable when thought of as a scavenger hunt as opposed to a surprise party.
357
I do not love to be printed on every occasion, much less to be dunned and teased by foreigners about mathematical things or to be thought by our own people to be trifling away my time about them when I should be about the king’s business.
358
Of all the things which wisdom provides to make us entirely happy, much the greatest is the possession of friendship.
Epicurus
359
As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves.
360
Silent gratitude isn’t much use to anyone.
361
YouTube is becoming much more than an entertainment destination.
362
When I see children, I see the face of God. That’s why I love them so much. That’s what I see.
363
I don’t have much patience for people who are self-conscious about the act of eating, and it irritates me when someone denies themselves the pleasure of a bloody hunk of steak or a pungent French cheese because of some outdated nonsense about what’s appropriate or attractive.
364
Politics is dirty. Politics is exciting. Politics is often very, very difficult and disappointing. And I really would rather the world would be a little more like it was when my dad was young, where you knew pretty much where people stood on the great moral issues.
365
No matter how much cricket you have played you are always learning.
366
Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
367
There is nothing with which every man is so afraid as getting to know how enormously much he is capable of doing and becoming.
368
No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens.
369
There is much more to being a patriot and a citizen than reciting the pledge or raising a flag.
370
Who would ever think that so much went on in the soul of a young girl?
371
I would much rather have men ask why I have no statue than why I have one.
Marcus Porcius Cato
372
My husband. He keeps me grounded. If I were in the world on my own, it would all be much more seductive. But I’m in a relationship that has nothing to do with the film world.
373
I feel more like I’m a person who has so much to offer in different capacities that it would be a danger for me not to give myself a chance to spread my wings in all different directions.
374
To have felt too much is to end in feeling nothing.
Dorothy Thompson
375
I love vintage cars because you can do so much more to them.
376
Sex is like money; only too much is enough.
377
It is not the soul alone that should be healthy; if the mind is healthy in a healthy body, all will be healthy and much better prepared to give God greater service.
378
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men’s hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
379
I don’t trip on that much. I just like to enjoy life and be happy.
380
The man who will use his skill and constructive imagination to see how much he can give for a dollar, instead of how little he can give for a dollar, is bound to succeed.
381
I think the tennis is only a game. You can lose. You can win. After that? In life, there are much more important things than tennis.
382
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.
383
One of the big questions in the climate change debate: Are humans any smarter than frogs in a pot? If you put a frog in a pot and slowly turn up the heat, it won’t jump out. Instead, it will enjoy the nice warm bath until it is cooked to death. We humans seem to be doing pretty much the same thing.
384
If at first you don’t succeed… so much for skydiving.
385
Hope thou not much, and fear thou not at all.
Algernon Charles Swinburne
386
By ensuring that no one in government has too much power, the Constitution helps protect ordinary Americans every day against abuse of power by those in authority.
387
No matter how much good you do, there will always be a few per cent of people who don’t support you.
Vincent Tan
388
If you want to get each individual‘s honest opinion, you don’t want that opinion to be influenced by others who are present, much less allow a group to coordinate what they are going to say.
389
The science of psychology has been far more successful on the negative than on the positive side… It has revealed to us much about man’s shortcomings, his illnesses, his sins, but little about his potentialities, his virtues, his achievable aspirations, or his psychological health.
390
It’s not the size of the house. It’s how much love is inside.
391
Cruelty is all out of ignorance. If you knew what was in store for you, you wouldn’t hurt anybody, because whatever you do comes back much more forceful than you send it out.
392
Music is not a profession. Music is a way of life – one that requires much professionalism.
393
Politics are very much like war. We may even have to use poison gas at times.
394
Once someone has spent enough time cultivating bad habits and biding their time, they are much diminished. Much of what they could have been has dissipated.
395
I used to wonder if it was God’s plan that I should be alone for so much of my life. But I found peace. I found happiness within people and the world.
396
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
Booker T. Washington
397
I don’t care half so much about making money as I do about making my point, and coming out ahead.
Cornelius Vanderbilt
398
So little done, so much to do.
Cecil Rhodes
399
It makes me uncomfortable to talk about meanings and things. It’s better not to know so much about what things mean. Because the meaning, it’s a very personal thing, and the meaning for me is different than the meaning for somebody else.
400
On weekends, I sit in a lounge chair on my balcony. I love to be outside when the weather‘s right. I can stay there pretty much all day.
401
All the big powers they’ve silenced me. So much for free speech and choice on this fundamental human right.
402
The dangers of not thinking clearly are much greater now than ever before. It’s not that there’s something new in our way of thinking – it’s that credulous and confused thinking can be much more lethal in ways it was never before.
403
I perhaps ought to say that individually I never was much interested in the Texas question. I never could see much good to come of annexation, inasmuch as they were already a free republican people on our own model.
404
I was in my thirteenth year when I heard a voice from God to help me govern my conduct. And the first time I was very much afraid.
405
Perception often lags behind reality, and I can say from experience that the vast majority of public officials in Louisiana are much better than our reputation holds us to be.
406
I spend hours playing chess because I find it so much fun. The day it stops being fun is the day I give up.
407
Many people resented my impatience and honesty, but I never cared about acceptance as much as I cared about respect.
408
The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding.
409
Comfort and prosperity have never enriched the world as much as adversity has.
410
There is more to sex appeal than just measurements. I don’t need a bedroom to prove my womanliness. I can convey just as much sex appeal, picking apples off a tree or standing in the rain.
411
You never really learn much from hearing yourself talk.
412
I’m much more proud of being a father than being an actor.
413
Always make the audience suffer as much as possible.
414
The challenge of the unknown future is so much more exciting than the stories of the accomplished past.
415
I want to take Justin Bieber for a month and just lock him up in a cage where we sit and make music. He’s one of the most successful people in the world, but his music could be so much tighter.
416
By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show.
417
Knavery seems to be so much a the striking feature of its inhabitants that it may not in the end be an evil that they will become aliens to this kingdom.
George III of the United Kingdom
418
It is much easier to suppress a first desire than to satisfy those that follow.
419
Some people care too much. I think it’s called love.
420
They say people live to be happy. If you actually think about what happiness is, it’s nothing much. When you get to eat ramen after feeling really, really hungry, that’s happiness.
421
Where you come from now is much less important than where you’re going. More and more of us are rooted in the future or the present tense as much as in the past. And home, we know, is not just the place where you happen to be born. It’s the place where you become yourself.
422
The people are hungry: It is because those in authority eat up too much in taxes.
423
Credit buying is much like being drunk. The buzz happens immediately and gives you a lift… The hangover comes the day after.
424
Germany is a great nation only because its people have so much Polish blood in their veins.
425
I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.
426
Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much.
427
We can’t avoid age. However, we can avoid some aging. Continue to do things. Be active. Life is fantastic in the way it adjusts to demands; if you use your muscles and mind, they stay there much longer.
Charles H. Townes
428
One belongs to New York instantly. One belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years.
Thomas Wolfe
429
I don’t believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.
430
Those who govern, having much business on their hands, do not generally like to take the trouble of considering and carrying into execution new projects. The best public measures are therefore seldom adopted from previous wisdom, but forced by the occasion.
431
Happiness? A good cigar, a good meal, a good cigar and a good woman – or a bad woman; it depends on how much happiness you can handle.
432
If you have to ask how much it costs, you can’t afford it.
J. P. Morgan
433
We live in an age, in an era where there is so much negativity, there is so much violence in the world, there is so much unrest and people are at war, that I wanted to promote the word love and red signifies love.
434
Sadly, it’s much easier to create a desert than a forest.
435
Evolution was far more thrilling to me than the biblical account. Who would not rather be a rising ape than a falling angel? To my juvenile eyes, Darwin was proved true every day. It doesn’t take much to make us flip back into monkeys again.
436
I love beautiful things; I like having nice clothes, and I can appreciate why other people do – but I’ve also started to learn more about the impact of what we buy: how things are made, how much you buy and the quality of everything.
437
I am a very private person. No one ever knows anything about me as I don’t think it is necessary. I tell people as much as I want them to know about me.
438
Nothing reflects so much honor on a workman as a trial of his work and its endurance of it. So it is with God. It honors Him when His saints preserve their integrity.
439
No matter how much success you’re having, you can’t continue working together if you can’t communicate.
440
You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don’t trust enough.
Frank Crane
441
Is evolution a theory, a system, or an hypothesis? It is much more: it is a general condition to which all theories, all hypotheses, all systems must bow and which they must satisfy henceforward if they are to be thinkable and true.
442
The philosophy behind much advertising is based on the old observation that every man is really two men – the man he is and the man he wants to be.
443
The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.
444
Superstition is foolish, childish, primitive and irrational – but how much does it cost you to knock on wood?
445
I hope I didn’t bore you too much with my life story.
446
If you add a little to a little, and then do it again, soon that little shall be much.
447
Success doesn’t motivate me as much as integrity does. Everyone loses. I enjoy the pressure of showing up every single day, being focused, putting forth my best effort, getting the best out of my teammates, and enjoying the journey.
448
I do think about aging. I have those moments of panic and vanity, but life keeps getting better, so you can’t worry about it too much.
449
We need to remember across generations that there is as much to learn as there is to teach.
450
I must learn to love the fool in me – the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries.
Theodore Isaac Rubin
451
When you are young, there is so much ahead of you, it’s like the Saharan desert. You can’t even see across it.
452
So many worlds, so much to do, so little done, such things to be.
453
People spend too much time finding other people to blame, too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being, and not enough energy putting themselves on the line, growing out of the past, and getting on with their lives.
454
Don’t let yesterday use up too much of today.
455
Let not your mind run on what you lack as much as on what you have already.
456
Experience teaches us that it is much easier to prevent an enemy from posting themselves than it is to dislodge them after they have got possession.
457
All art is exorcism. I paint dreams and visions too; the dreams and visions of my time. Painting is the effort to produce order; order in yourself. There is much chaos in me, much chaos in our time.
Otto Dix
458
Success must never be measured by how much money you have.
459
The years teach much which the days never know.
460
I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever met was my father’s equal, and I never loved any other man as much.
461
He has achieved success who has worked well, laughed often, and loved much.
462
I personally think if something’s not a challenge, there’s no point doing it, because you’re not gonna learn much.
463
Focused. I’m a hustler. And my hustle is trying to figure out the best ways to do what I like without having to do much else.
464
If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.
Bruce Lee
465
Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be.
466
The world is too much with us; late and soon, getting and spending, we lay waste our powers: Little we see in Nature that is ours.
467
I have as much chance of becoming Prime Minister as of being decapitated by a frisbee or of finding Elvis.
468
I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don’t have as many people who believe it.
469
Courtesy is as much a mark of a gentleman as courage.
470
Being real is what keeps me humble. It doesn’t matter how much money I make or how much I accomplish. What’s critical is staying real to myself and keeping my feet on the ground. That’s what helps keep me going.
471
Happiness doesn’t depend on how much you have to enjoy, but how much you enjoy what you have.
Tom Wilson
472
Sponges grow in the ocean. That just kills me. I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be if that didn’t happen.
473
The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.
474
People can cry much easier than they can change.
475
As great minds have the faculty of saying a great deal in a few words, so lesser minds have a talent of talking much, and saying nothing.
476
People with momentum can get so much done. Momentum is easy to lose and almost impossible to fake.
477
When you first get opportunities, suddenly you get surrounded by a lot of people who want to make money off you but also are there to help. But they start telling you so much what you need to be and what you need to do to maintain some idea of career maintenance.
478
These words dropped into my childish mind as if you should accidentally drop a ring into a deep well. I did not think of them much at the time, but there came a day in my life when the ring was fished up out of the well, good as new.
479
Particularly Instagram, people look like they have a much better life than they really do. People basically seem like they are way better-looking than they really are, and they are way happier-seeming than they really are.
480
All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.
481
There are so many people who are arguing or fighting over issues which don’t have much relevance. We must all realise it is not worth it.
482
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
483
I pretty much operate on adrenaline and ignorance.
484
Discontent, blaming, complaining, self-pity cannot serve as a foundation for a good future, no matter how much effort you make.
485
Errors using inadequate data are much less than those using no data at all.
486
Do not fear death so much but rather the inadequate life.
487
I always find beauty in things that are odd and imperfect – they are much more interesting.
488
When we adopt a dog or any pet, we know it is going to end with us having to say goodbye, but we still do it. And we do it for a very good reason: They bring so much joy and optimism and happiness. They attack every moment of every day with that attitude.
489
In twenty years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.
490
A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand. Is not the mountain far more awe-inspiring and more clearly visible to one passing through the valley than to those who inhabit the mountain?
491
The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.
492
Fortune knocks but once, but misfortune has much more patience.
493
To suffer the penalty of too much haste, which is too little speed.
494
My reading of history convinces me that most bad government has grown out of too much government.
John Sharp Williams
495
He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.
496
You’d be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap!
497
All of us are much more human than otherwise.
Harry Stack Sullivan
498
I am not a foodie, thank goodness. I will eat pretty much anything. A lot of my friends are getting incredibly fussy about food and I see it as a bit of an affliction.
499
But I think we’re also just talking about the literacy of the audience. The visual literacy of the audience. They’ve seen so many images now, especially here in the States. There’s so much to look at, to watch. So the visual storytelling literacy is harder to impress.
500
And it comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don’t get on the wrong track or try to do too much. We’re always thinking about new markets we could enter, but it’s only by saying no that you can concentrate on the things that are really important.
501
My father… removed from Kentucky to… Indiana, in my eighth year… It was a wild region, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. There I grew up… Of course when I came of age, I did not know much. Still somehow, I could read, write, and cipher… but that was all.
502
We have much work ahead, to stand still.
503
Men can starve from a lack of self-realization as much as they can from a lack of bread.
Richard Wright
504
I went to college as an economics major because that was the easiest major that could still please your Asian parents, and then, much to their dismay, I became a stand-up comedian.
505
Too many people measure how successful they are by how much money they make or the people that they associate with. In my opinion, true success should be measured by how happy you are.
506
As much as I don’t want to admit it, my fans are the only ones that can hurt my feelings when they’re not pleased with what I’m presenting. I want it to be perfect for them. I want them to have a different sense of pride in my music.
507
My mother and father were both much more remarkable than any story of mine can make them. They seem to me just mythically wonderful.
508
The more I draw and write, the more I realise that accidents are a necessary part of any creative act, much more so than logic or wisdom. Sometimes a mistake is the only way of arriving at an original concept, and the history of successful inventions is full of mishaps, serendipity and unintended results.
509
I want a man who’s kind and understanding. Is that too much to ask of a millionaire?
510
I’m so lucky to have such a great family. I respect them so much professionally, and they’ve been unconditionally supportive in the choices that I’ve made. It’s been very good having them on my side.
Jack Huston
