I like all types of women. I accept them as they are when they come into my life… But I’m not a romantic. I’m just up-front. I like to be a part of something real, not make-believe.

29
I have a problem when people say something’s real or not real, or normal or abnormal. The meaning of those words for me is very personal and subjective. I’ve always been confused and never had a clearcut understanding of the meaning of those kinds of words.

58
Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself – and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That’s what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is.

Real success is not on the stage, but off the stage as a human being, and how you get along with your fellow man.
92
Ever since the economic crisis in 2008, millions of people have accepted cuts in all sorts of things – from real wages and living standards to benefits and hospital care – without any real opposition. The cuts may be right, or they may be stupid – but the astonishing thing is how no-one really challenges them.
93
I would like to be remembered as a guy who had a set of priorities, and was willing to live by those priorities. In terms of accomplishments, my biggest accomplishment is that I kept the country safe amidst a real danger.

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
119
Being an artist doesn’t just mean you have a song. That doesn’t make you an artist. The word ‘artist’ means so many different things, and I feel like to be a real one, you really have to do it all. The people that I think of as artists – Tyler the Creator, Childish Gambino, Kanye West – are doing the most.
120
I’m a real man. I can suffer.
121
122
To the real artist in humanity, what are called bad manners are often the most picturesque and significant of all.

129
130
Real courage is when you know you’re licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.

I don’t even know what a traditional producer is or does. I feel like the job is like being a coach, building good work habits and building trust. You want to get to a point where you can say anything and talk about anything. There needs to be a real connection.
132
133
134
135
Real freedom lies in wildness, not in civilization.
136
We can’t have, like, willy-nilly proliferation of fake news. That’s crazy. You can’t have more types of fake news than real news. That’s allowing public deception to go unchecked. That’s crazy.

Individuals have to decide what is true and real for them.

143

149
If your culture doesn’t like geeks, you are in real trouble.

151
If you have good songs and a real desire to make music, the next thing to do, instead of approach record companies, is to get yourself a really good manager because then it allows you to focus on your profession of being a musician. Then they can focus on the darker art of the record label and the music industry.
152
It just seemed like Buddhism, especially Tibetan Buddhism – because that’s mainly what I’ve been exposed to – was a real solid organization of teachings to point someone in the right direction. Some real well thought out stuff. But I don’t know, like, every last detail about Buddhism.

181
182
You need to be real enough to be believable, but you don’t necessarily have to be real enough to be real. There is a distinction.
183
The most difficult problems are naturally not involved in the search for forms for contemporary life. It is a question of working our way to forms behind which real human values lie.
184
Many people look at me and think they know me but they don’t at all. This is the real me. I am a humble person, a feeling person. A person who cares about others, who wants to help others.
185
Real education should educate us out of self into something far finer; into a selflessness which links us with all humanity.

188
Most good actors have a huge intelligence about the human condition and a real open heart to different kinds of people and behavior.
189

190
191
192
193
In the ‘Nude Descending a Staircase,’ I wanted to create a static image of movement: movement is an abstraction, a deduction articulated within the painting, without our knowing if a real person is or isn’t descending an equally real staircase.
194
195
196
Everyone can have a crush on anyone, be it on a real person or a celebrity.
197
198

199
200
If your dad died before you were born, yeah, it hurts – but it’s not like you had a connection with something that was real. Not to say it’s any better – but to have that connection and then have it ripped away was, like, the worst. My dad was such a good dad that when he left, he left a huge scar. He was my superhero.
201
202
203
The simplest way of understanding justice is giving people what they deserve. This idea goes back to Aristotle. The real difficulty begins with figuring out who deserves what and why.
204
205
206
Because people don’t understand what computing is about, they think they have it in the iPhone, and that illusion is as bad as the illusion that ‘Guitar Hero’ is the same as a real guitar.
207

209
210
A lot of times when you keep it real with somebody, you can’t expect them to keep it real with you.

212
In this age of globalization, instant real time media and television, everyone all over the world realizes that high energy usage equates with a high standard of living and wealth.

217
218
219

221
Be real with yourself in whatever area of your life and your game that you need improvement on. Once you figure that out, you just have to go out and work on it. For me, it’s footwork. I constantly work on it, and it’s a never-ending process.
222
223
224
Action is the real measure of intelligence.
225
226

227
Global warming is real – it is man-made and it is an important problem. But it is not the end of the world.
228

229
230
231
It really does frustrate me when I watch MLS, and I see our best U-17 players – who, again, are so talented and so capable – being rostered… but then not being put on the field much to actually play. I watch that, and I just think about how I was given a chance… a real chance… and it changed my life.
232
When humor works, it works because it’s clarifying what people already feel. It has to come from someplace real.
233
I love my husband very much. I knew it was real true love because I felt like I could be myself around that person. Your true, true innermost authentic self, the stuff you don’t let anyone else see, if you can be that way with that person, I think that that’s real love.
234
Great ambition, the desire of real superiority, of leading and directing, seems to be altogether peculiar to man, and speech is the great instrument of ambition.
235
236
237
238
239
Exploration by real people inspires us.
240

In photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.

Me personally, I want to entertain people above all. When you look back at burlesque in history and the real golden age of burlesque, those entertainers were there to entertain, and there wasn’t usually some big political message behind what they were doing.
246
The climate-studies people who work with models always tend to overestimate their models. They come to believe models are real and forget they are only models.
247
Compared to politics, I think sports is funnier, because it’s inconsequential. And politics can be real important and all that. The more pointless something is, the funnier it is, you know? And the more grave or important things are… You know, some comedians can get this disease where they get serious all the time.
248
When I was starting out I was way too scared to ask real directors how to do it or ask for advice, I’m really kind of New Zealand like that.
249
I’m a real big celebrity. I’m this megastar.
250
251
We all need somebody to talk to. It would be good if we talked… not just pitter-patter, but real talk. We shouldn’t be so afraid, because most people really like this contact; that you show you are vulnerable makes them free to be vulnerable.
252
253
Well it seems to me, that all real communities grow out of a shared confrontation with survival. Communities are not produced by sentiment or mere goodwill. They grow out of a shared struggle. Our situation in the desert is an incubator for community.
254
The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like men, but that men will begin to think like computers.
255
256
A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
257

269

276
277

279
Real success is not, like, materialistic. It’s being where you want to be when you want to be; just living your life how you feel; having an ultimate goal and being able to accomplish it.

Virtual reality is a technology that could actually allow you to connect on a real human level, soul-to-soul, regardless of where you are in the world.
288
I think we are all interested in end-times ideas and also in the current climate that we are all living in, where money is a little harder to come by, things continue to get expensive; gas prices are not too far from people’s heads. There are more and more people. Human society’s going to have real problems.
289
The real secret of success is enthusiasm.
290
There’s a real wisdom to not saying a thing.
291
292
Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real.
293
294
295
I paint mostly from real life. It has to start with that. Real people, real street scenes, behind the curtain scenes, live models, paintings, photographs, staged setups, architecture, grids, graphic design. Whatever it takes to make it work.
296
297
Women are the real architects of society.
298
When you play in a great club like Real Madrid, it’s hard to stay here.
299

300
I like to show my ability on the field. I’m not one to show off with words. I’m really looking forward to the chance. I’m a calm goalkeeper, and above all, I’ve got a real desire to win. When I get on the pitch, I give everything for the team, everything for the shirt.
301
302
If we don’t figure out a way to create equity, real equity, of opportunity and access, to good schools, housing, health care, and decent paying jobs, we’re not going to survive as a productive and healthy society.
303
The most important thing is to snack on things that are filled with real food and nourishing ingredients that will leave you feeling energised and happy.

314
315
In real life, I assure you, there is no such thing as algebra.
316

318
Real art is one of the most powerful forces in the rise of mankind, and he who renders it accessible to as many people as possible is a benefactor of humanity.

320
321
In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.
322
Husbands, recognize your wife‘s intelligence and her ability to counsel with you as a real partner regarding family plans, family activities, and family budgeting.

323
I’ve had an unbelievable life. I’ve been very lucky. You do create your own luck too, you know? I never forget where I’m from. Whenever I pass a building site or see somebody digging a ditch, I always think, ‘That’s real work.’
324
The real key is to live in an environment where the mind feels free to choose the right thing instead of being compelled by habit and inertia to choose the wrong thing.

340
I try to speak plainly so that my constituents who don’t follow the nuances of government like I do, because they’re too busy earning a real living, can understand the issues before me. None of this stuff is brain surgery.

342
343
344
345
346
347

349
Real patriotism is a willingness to challenge the government when it’s wrong.

Museums provide places of relaxation and inspiration. And most importantly, they are a place of authenticity. We live in a world of reproductions – the objects in museums are real. It’s a way to get away from the overload of digital technology.
351
352
The spiritual life is not a life before, after, or beyond our everyday existence. No, the spiritual life can only be real when it is lived in the midst of the pains and joys of the here and now.
353
354
355
Nothing can bring a real sense of security into the home except true love.
356
357
You carry Mother Earth within you. She is not outside of you. Mother Earth is not just your environment. In that insight of inter-being, it is possible to have real communication with the Earth, which is the highest form of prayer.
358
359
Going home and spending time with your family and your real friends keeps you grounded.
360
Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.
361
Real joy seems to me almost as unlike security or prosperity as it is unlike agony.
362
363
I really love the togetherness in baseball. That’s a real true love.
364
Being irrational and out of control is what happens in real life. Not cautiously choreographing your anger or your emotions, losing yourself in them is what happens in real life.
365
366
Religion was nearly dead because there was no longer real belief in future life; but something was struggling to take its place – service – social service – the ants creed, the bees creed.
367
368
I always find that there is a real communication between voice and violin.
369
370
371
Fear doesn’t exist in football, especially for Real Madrid.
372
I’ve always wanted male friends that I could be real intimate with and talk about important things with and be as affectionate with that person as I would be with a girl.
373
374
I think documentary filmmaking is a braver way to make films because it’s real, and you’re really there.
375
My mom raised us like we were still in the Philippines. She tried to cure everything at home like a real Filipino woman. You had to die to go to the hospital. My mom cured everything with Vicks VapoRub. I should’ve died nine times when I was a kid!
376
It’s possible to spend every waking hour here on the ninth floor and not get out of the office. And this isn’t the real world in here. And contrary to public opinion, I’m not incredibly poll-driven. They are an ongoing indicator of how we are going, but I take the feedback I get on the street as being the most important.
377
Personal relationships are the fertile soil from which all advancement, all success, all achievement in real life grows.
378
There is no real teacher who in practice does not believe in the existence of the soul, or in a magic that acts on it through speech.
379
380
381
Diversity and inclusion, which are the real grounds for creativity, must remain at the center of what we do.
382
If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.
383
When I eat with my friends, it is a moment of real pleasure, when I really enjoy my life.
384
385
Compared to politics, I think sports is funnier, because it’s inconsequential. And politics can be real important and all that. The more pointless something is, the funnier it is, you know?
386
Listen, real poetry doesn’t say anything; it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through any one that suits you.
387
388
389
In real open source, you have the right to control your own destiny.
390
I want a real revolution, a real change in society: society, a great organic mass of well-regulated forces used for the bringing-about a happy life for all.
391
Joy can only be real if people look upon their life as a service and have a definite object in life outside themselves and their personal happiness.
392
The truth doesn’t change. It was the same when Moses got the Ten Commandments as it is today. That’s the thing about the truth. That’s the thing about real. It doesn’t change and it doesn’t have to change. Now you can put it in a different book, but it’s still real. It’s still the truth.
393
If you are going to do something, you have to do it for yourself, and that’s what I try to do. I try to be authentic and try to be original, so that’s what I try to be. A lot of people try to build big brands but have received bad advice, and they don’t try to be authentic and real with themselves.
394
Beauty and femininity are ageless and can’t be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won’t like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it’s based on femininity.
395
As long as God gives me strength to work and try to make things real for my children, I’m going to work for it – even if it means making the ultimate sacrifice.
396
397
Any mind that is capable of real sorrow is capable of good.
398
We should always remember that sensitiveness and emotion constitute the real content of a work of art.
399
When you think about it, giving up your ‘real’ personality is a small price to pay for the richness of ‘living happily ever after‘ with an actual man!
400
All phenomena are real in some sense, unreal in some sense, meaningless in some sense, real and meaningless in some sense, unreal and meaningless in some sense, and real and unreal and meaningless in some sense.
401
402
403
The world is real. Consciousness is the illusion.
404
Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.
405
406
407
Video games are a waste of time for men with nothing else to do. Real brains don’t do that.
408
I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.
409
Loyalty is a big part of football, and it shows if you are a real man or not.
410
411
When I look back at that freedom of childhood, which is in a way infinite, and at all the joy and the intense happiness, now lost, I sometimes think that childhood is where the real meaning of life is located, and that we, adults, are its servants – that that’s our purpose.
412
The real lover of cats is one who demands a clearer adjustment to the universe than ordinary household platitudes provide; one who refuses to swallow the sentimental notion that all good people love dogs, children, and horses while all bad people dislike and are disliked by such.
413
Every journey into the past is complicated by delusions, false memories, false namings of real events.
414
I worked with such concentration and focus and I had hundreds of obscure engineering or programming things in my head. I was just real exceptional in that way.
415
If time is not real, then the dividing line between this world and eternity, between suffering and bliss, between good and evil, is also an illusion.
416
The first real thought that I had of something that I might do was to write for car magazines, because I always had a car thing.
417
418
It is easier for a father to have children than for children to have a real father.
419
420
421
I was terrible in English. I couldn’t stand the subject. It seemed to me ridiculous to worry about whether you spelled something wrong or not, because English spelling is just a human convention – it has nothing to do with anything real, anything from nature.
422
I would never date a celebrity. I would want someone with real skills. Doctor, nurse, electrician… tailor.
423
Life is so fresh, life is every day so new if we are fighting, only for the best. Sometimes I think the only real satisfaction in life is failure, failure in your endeavor to do your best.
424
I would never join Real Madrid.
425
426
427
The only real things in life is the unexpected things. Everything else is just an illusion.
428
When truth is no longer free, freedom is no longer real: the truths of the police are the truths of today.
429
430
431
What I cannot love, I overlook. Is that real friendship?
432
I let people see the cracks in my life. We can’t be phony. We’ve got to keep it real.
433
The real spiritual progress of the aspirant is measured by the extent to which he achieves inner tranquility.
434
I liked ‘Scream of the Banshee’ because it was a real challenge. I thought, ‘How am I going to pull off this character?’ But, I also thought, ‘Oh, man, I’m going to go for it.’ He’s got all the defects of character that an actor loves to play. So, I had a really great time.
435
Everybody is responsible for their own actions. It’s easy to point the finger at somebody else, but a real man, a real woman, a real person knows when it’s time to take the blame and when to take responsibility for their own actions.
436
What interests me is the connection between maths and the real world.
437
There is real value in sharing moments that don’t live forever.
438
Dream no small dream; it lacks magic. Dream large. Then make the dream real.
439
440
441
When I played Robert Howard in ‘The Whole Wide World‘, I was struggling with it. There’s this dual thing where you feel real good about being able to play this juicy part, and then there’s constant shame: ‘Who am I to pretend to know who this guy was? Who am I to represent this guy for people who never knew him?’
442
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.
443
Personal experience is the basis of all real Literature.
444
The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one’s real and one’s declared aims, one turns, as it were, instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish squirting out ink.
445
Everest is not real climbing. It’s rich people climbing. It’s a trophy on the wall, and they’re done… When I say I wish I’d never gone, I really mean that.
446
Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense everything that comes from love is a miracle.
447
I think that a good movie creates its own world, and that world needn’t refer to anything that’s real. If it’s consistent, if it’s entertaining, if it’s interesting, it justifies its being there.
448
If everyone howled at every injustice, every act of barbarism, every act of unkindness, then we would be taking the first step towards a real humanity.
449
450
Women are the real reason we get up every day. I’m talking about real men. If there were no women, I would not even have to bathe, because why would I care? These are guys I’m hanging with. I wake up for a woman every day of my life to make it happen for her.
451
I don’t like to talk hypotheticals. I deal with the real life situations. I treat every day as a blessing.
452
453
In a real dark night of the soul, it is always three o’clock in the morning, day after day.
454
What I’ve learned is that real change is very, very hard. But I’ve also learned that change is possible – if you fight for it.
455
Among the weeds choking out growth and good government are the hundreds of boards, commissions, and advisory committees that have sprouted over the years. They devour time, money, and energy far beyond any real contribution they make.
456
With me, Bobby Fish, and Kyle O’Reilly, I know on-screen we are these brothers whose bond can’t be broken, and we are this faction. I promise you, it’s very real behind the scenes, too. I’ve known those guys for years. We travel together all the time; we talk every single day.
457
People love video games because they do things they obviously can’t do in real life. That’s especially true with sports games because fans love to step into the shoes of their favorite athletes.
458
The real leader has no need to lead – he is content to point the way.
459
We live in a disposable, ‘cast-off and throw-away’ society that has largely lost any real sense of permanence. Ours is a world of expiration dates, limited shelf life, and planned obsolescence. Nothing is absolute.
460
Let men see, let them know, a real man, who lives as he was meant to live.
461
The on-stage Gracie may look poised, but the real Gracie is shy, a little self-conscious, and, before every performance of my life, panicky.
462
I love acting. It’s an interesting challenge to make something that doesn’t exist appear like it’s happening, and to do it in a real way.
463
Coming to Australia, it was just really magical for me. It just had the wow factor of a different sort of place and, more so, just being with a family that wanted to love me and to have me, because I knew back then, before coming to Australia, there was no way of getting back home or finding my real family.
464
One’s real life is so often the life that one does not lead.
465
Music took me from a real dark place to a real bright one.
466
Over the years, a lot of rappers – Lil’ Wayne, Ice Cube – have used my name in their songs. I’m a real touchstone of history.
467
468
469
Sometimes we fall in love with the idea of a person and have trouble seeing the real thing.
470
All real education is the architecture of the soul.
471
Most children – I know I did when I was a kid – fantasize another set of parents. Or fantasize no parents. They don’t tell their real parents about that – you don’t want to tell Mom and Dad. Kids lead a very private life. And I was a typical child, I think. I was a liar.
472
473
What gives you real power is when you know your power. And I feel quite powerful.
474
‘Pathological liar’ is absolutely the toughest individual to deal with as a psychiatrist. Because you can’t take anything they say at face value. And you can’t, you know, fill in their personality. You don’t know what’s real and what’s not.
475
But if inventions have increased man’s power over nature very much, then the real value of money is better measured for some purposes in labour than in commodities.
476
In the real world, as lived and experienced by real people, the demand for human rights and dignity, the longing for liberty and justice and opportunity, the hatred of oppression and corruption and cruelty is reality.
477
478
Talk about a dream, try to make it real.
479
I know of no country in which there is so little independence of mind and real freedom of discussion as in America.
480
The hair is real – it’s the head that’s a fake.
481
482
Plastic surgery and breast implants are fine for people who want that, if it makes them feel better about who they are. But, it makes these people, actors especially, fantasy figures for a fantasy world. Acting is about being real being honest.
483
484
The real enemies of our life are the ‘oughts’ and the ‘ifs.’ They pull us backward into the unalterable past and forward into the unpredictable future. But real life takes place in the here and now.
485
486
That’s what all art’s about – a sense of moving away from boundaries that you can’t in real life. Like a dancer is always trying to fly, really – to do something that’s just not possible. But you try to do as much as you can within those physical boundaries.
487
488
In 2008, when the real estate market blew up, it principally hurt older people who saw the value of their houses go down, along with their pension plans.
489
490
Dreaming means ‘rehearsing‘ what you see, playing it over and over in your mind until it becomes as real to you as your life right now.
491
Let us ever remember that our interest is in concord, not in conflict; and that our real eminence rests in the victories of peace, not those of war.
492
Take what you can from your dreams, make them as real as anything.
493
Unless our conception of patriotism is progressive, it cannot hope to embody the real affection and the real interest of the nation.
494
Practical wisdom is only to be learned in the school of experience. Precepts and instruction are useful so far as they go, but, without the discipline of real life, they remain of the nature of theory only.
495
Sometimes films ignore other points of view because it’s simpler to tell the story that way, but the more genuine and sympathetic you are to different points of view and situations, the more real the story is.
496
497
Postpartum depression is a very real and very serious problem for many mothers. It can happen to a first time mom or a veteran mother. It can occur a few days… or a few months after childbirth.
498
499
Even paranoids have real enemies.
500
501
502
Well, I screwed it up real good, didn’t I?
503
When decentralized blockchain protocols start displacing the centralized web services that dominate the current Internet, we’ll start to see real internet-based sovereignty. The future Internet will be decentralized.
504
505
506
507
As long as you keep one foot in the real world while the other foot’s in a fairy tale, that fairy tale is going to seem kind of attainable.
508
It is only hope which is real, and reality is a bitterness and a deceit.
509
510
After all, the past is our only real guide to the future, and historical analogies are instruments for distilling and organizing the past and converting it to a map by which we can navigate.
511
In real life, I’m the type of girl who doesn’t take herself too seriously. I’m very serious when it comes to work, but I like to make jokes and have a good laugh and make fun of myself.
512
You don’t have to be too bright to get into real estate.
513
The world is like a reverse casino. In a casino, if you gamble long enough, you’re certainly going to lose. But in the real world, where the only thing you’re gambling is, say, your time or your embarrassment, then the more stuff you do, the more you give luck a chance to find you.
514
515
There’s something special about racing in real streets. The ‘artificial’ circuits have a certain sameness to them. But every race conducted on real streets has a character of its own – Barcelona, Monaco, and now Long Beach.
516
The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art – and, by analogy, our own experience – more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.
517
The truth has never been of any real value to any human being – it is a symbol for mathematicians and philosophers to pursue. In human relations kindness and lies are worth a thousand truths.
518
The more real things get, the more like myths they become.
519
I grew up in a working-class Catholic family in south Louisiana. I went to a state university. I taught literature, wrote a novel that was the novel I wanted to write, and got a couple of good reviews but no real traction. I had no idea how to get a job in TV.
520
I’m real petty. I remember everything like an elephant.
521
It’s challenging to take on something else that is not you and make it very real and have others be able to associate with it. It’s wonderful to provoke thought.
522
523
524
In real life, too, women love to be that girl who tames the bad boy.
525
526
It obviously bothers people when Real Madrid win. It makes them jealous. There isn’t a level playing field.
527
Real happiness is cheap enough, yet how dearly we pay for its counterfeit.
528
Being a defender of Real Madrid means being able to make very few mistakes.
529
There is a real danger that computers will develop intelligence and take over. We urgently need to develop direct connections to the brain so that computers can add to human intelligence rather than be in opposition.
530
I can’t act, and so I have to live that particular character in my real life and then exhibit it on screen.
531
When you see who I am, you’re getting a real character, a real person. R-Truth, that’s me.
532
533
534
Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that’s real power.
535
536
You grow up the day you have the first real laugh at yourself.
537
I try to stick to real food, meaning anything that has been grown naturally or organically and that is not majorly processed: meats and proteins, a lot of green vegetables, less sugary fruits, solid starches and nuts.
538
Reality is wrong. Dreams are for real.
539
I don’t know what the future holds. All I know is, I’m good today. Real good.
540
The real discovery is the one which enables me to stop doing philosophy when I want to. The one that gives philosophy peace, so that it is no longer tormented by questions which bring itself into question.
541
Real living is living for others.
542
Real Madrid is a club where you have to go when you are mature and at the top of your game.
543
You can’t be a real spy and have everybody in the world know who you are and what your drink is. That’s just hysterically funny.
544
I think you have to learn that there’s a company behind every stock, and that there’s only one real reason why stocks go up. Companies go from doing poorly to doing well or small companies grow to large companies.
545
I don’t have any issue with people seeing my real self.
546
The tragedy of modern war is that the young men die fighting each other – instead of their real enemies back home in the capitals.
547
Real generosity is doing something nice for someone who will never find out.
548
549
Dishonesty is all about the small acts we can take and then think, ‘No, this not real cheating.’ So if you think that the main mechanism is rationalization, then what you come up with, and that’s what we find, is that we’re basically trying to balance feeling good about ourselves.
550
There is no stronger case for the motivational power of real science than the discoveries that come from the Hubble Space Telescope as it unravels the mysteries of the universe.
551
Real men laugh at opposition; real men smile when enemies appear.
552
Both free speech rights and property rights belong legally to individuals, but their real function is social, to benefit vast numbers of people who do not themselves exercise these rights.
553
Women in most countries have not achieved much, because they can’t be liberated under the patriarchal, capitalist, imperialist and military system that determines the way we live now, and which is governed by power, not justice, by false democracy, not real freedom.
554
555
I went to boarding school in the country, so there’s no real differentiation between family and friends. I went there from when I was 8 until I was 17 – it was insane. If you earn my friendship, you are my family, and I’ll do anything for you.
556
I’m a real extrovert, but when I’m round someone new, I’m super shy.
557
People try to function in the real world – the analog world – while they’re texting in the digital world, and they run into the car in front of them. It doesn’t work to be in both.
558
559
What pedophiles and people who have sexual desires on children lose sight of to a terrible, terrible degree – a devastating degree – is that their victims are real people who will suffer forever whatever abuses are perpetrated on them.
560
Sexual harassment and gender discrimination is real, it’s far more pervasive than I think people have been willing to acknowledge.
561
America does not need another political campaign based on denial and avoidance of some of our real problems. It needs a crusade to reform and renew our country, its institutions and political system.
562
563
Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.
564
565
In real life, wolves will do anything to avoid contact with mankind.
566
567
If I receive a phone call from Real Madrid, I won’t answer.
568
The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.
569
570
My Mom and Dad always told me to not act on emotion, act on what is real. When you’re mad don’t do something wrong because you’re mad.
571
To become a great player, you’ve got to show real dedication and commitment to football, and you’ve got to be very humble and hard-working. And, above all, you’ve got to fight to make your dreams come true.
572
Coming up with ideas isn’t hard. The real challenge is finding the time to actually build something and then finding a home for it.
573
I would honestly say the biggest thing for cold weather is a good face moisturizer with SPF. Winters are harsh, wind chill’s real, and, a lot of the time, it’s a really dry climate, and so your lips will crack, your face will start to get dry, your nose will peel; it’s easy to get sunburnt, windburnt.
574
575
576
577
Imaginary pains are by far the most real we suffer, since we feel a constant need for them and invent them because there is no way of doing without them.
578
The real minimum wage is zero.
579
580
The only real security that a man can have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience and ability.
581
582
583
When it comes to Real Madrid, anything’s possible.
584
585
In acting, I always try to go back to what would actually be the real situation, the real human behavior in life.
586
587
588
Erosion of faith and trust in government – that is the real problem that confronts us.
589
Before Hurricane Katrina, I always felt like I could come back home. And home was a real place, and also it had this mythical weight for me. Because of the way that Hurricane Katrina ripped everything away, it cast that idea in doubt.
590
Good is positive. Evil is merely privative, not absolute: it is like cold, which is the privation of heat. All evil is so much death or nonentity. Benevolence is absolute and real. So much benevolence as a man hath, so much life hath he.
591
592
593
There are the things that are out in the open, and there are the things that are hidden. The real world has more to do with what is hidden.
594
Contentment is the only real wealth.
595
If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.
596
597
598
I learned early on about the real meaning of equity and inclusion, and that when those guiding principles are not met, they can have devastating effects on individuals, families, and communities.
599
I believe activism is the true source of change in the world. Pushing to change social structures in communities that you are a part of is critical for making real lasting change.
600
Every part I play is just a variant of my own personality. No real character actor, of course, just me.
601
The beauty one can find in art is one of the pitifully few real and lasting products of human endeavor.
602
603
True country music is honesty, sincerity, and real life to the hilt.
604
At Real Madrid you have to fight until the end.
605
It is the experiences, the great triumphant joy of living to the fullest extent in which real meaning is found. God it’s great to be alive!
606
607
Crucial to science education is hands-on involvement: showing, not just telling; real experiments and field trips and not just ‘virtual reality.’
608
I’ve played for Real Madrid, where the pressure is so huge because you have to go and really win absolutely every game.
609
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.
610
Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.
611
612
Comedy is only funny when there’s real pain.
613
Being you is what defines real beauty.
614
A real book is not one that we read, but one that reads us.
615
616
I do smoke in real life. A lot. We’re all smoking right now in fact.
