The only time I’m not Hulk Hogan is when I’m behind closed doors because as soon as I walk out the front door, and somebody says hello to me, I can’t just say ‘hello’ like Terry. When they see me, they see the blond hair, the mustache, and the bald head, they instantly think Hulk Hogan.
339
340
Sex education is legitimate in that girls cannot be taught soon enough how children don’t come into the world.
341
If you go too soon, you can come unstuck with 50m left when the guys are going past you.
342
343
344
345
As soon as I became old enough to make my dreams my reality, I became a firm believer that the subconscious and the world outside of our flesh and blood is essentially the truth.
346
You will soon find that I am a bit obsessive about my work. And that is a little sad, one often feels strangely restricted, not finding time to simmer, although one actually has many interests.
347
I wish I was a prolific writing wondrous boy genius – I wish I was Stevie Wonder – but I wasn’t. I was me. I wrote terrible songs about girls I was head-over-heels about. As soon as a pretty girl looks at me, that’s it – I’m in love, and I should probably write a song about it!
348
349
350
351
Very near Auch, Lectoure, and Mirande, great fire will fall from the sky for three nights. A most stupendous and astonishing event will occur. Very soon afterwards, the earth will tremble.
352
As soon as I starting making YouTube videos, I received so much positive feedback from the online community and a demand for more content. As time went on, my filming schedule became more consistent, and it made sense to hire some help and upgrade my equipment.
353
You will soon break the bow if you keep it always stretched.
354
My main expertise is in the past, but if I have to extrapolate into the future, I would say: no good news any time soon and an obvious exit strategy is not apparent to me.
355
Apparently it’ll all settle down and they’ll forget about it soon.
356
I wish I could be like Shaw who once read a bad review of one of his plays, called the critic and said: ‘I have your review in front of me and soon it will be behind me.’
357
It seems ridiculous that you can be in one state with your driver’s license and buy a firearm, and then in the next state it is totally illegal. There are real problems to that, but as soon as you bring up the subject and say ‘gun control,’ it sets a red flag.
358
359
After ‘The Matrix,’ I cannot wear sunglasses. As soon as I put them on, people recognize me.
360
My feet ain’t got nothing to do with my nickname, but when folks get it in their heads that a feller’s got big feet, soon the feet start looking big.
361
362
They thought I was a success as soon as I started paying the bills.
363
364
Yeah, I did some small parts in high school and the first year of college and then fairly soon thereafter I settled into the backstage scenery, and then at the University of Maryland I was doing posters for their productions.
365
Now Herod was an active man, and soon found proper materials for his active spirit to work upon.
366
My dad gave me my first bike at 16. I soon fell off and was in a wheelchair for weeks. I haven’t fallen since.
367
368
When I was 12, we began hosting exchange students from Norway, Sweden, Japan and Spain. I soon realized there was a whole world out there. I was determined to spend my sophomore year in high school abroad. My school taught only Spanish, but I wanted to go to France, and I did.
369
370
371
As soon as the groupie finds out that you make errors in everyday life like everybody else does and that you are human, they turn on you and hate you.
372
373
If you should put even a little on a little and should do this often, soon this would become big.
374
I joined Khalsa College just opposite Don Bosco in class XI, but soon I quit studies and was sent to Bangkok by my father to learn martial arts, as that is the only place we could afford given that I would also work there to support my training.
375
376
From here it sounds great to say we’ll all get together soon, but all I know is this: you can call me fifty days or fifty years from now and I’ll be glad to see you.
377
As soon as I go into a dark subject, like discussing the people I’ve loved and lost, I off-road into absurdist comedy perversion. It’s both a means of protection and a kind of denial, a blessing and a curse. Wait, it’s not a blessing at all. I guess it would be a bad habit and a curse.
378
379
My roommate at Yale University introduced me to the auteur theory of filmmaking. I soon became a big fan of the works of John Ford, Kenji Mizoguchi, Ernst Lubitsch, and Stan Brakhage. I then decided to make my own films!
380
You play a part, and as soon as a movie is over and the camera stops, you go home and you’re not really responsible for what you’ve done.
381
382
383
384
Act the way you’d like to be and soon you’ll be the way you act.
385
386
Ever since the Industrial Revolution, investments in science and technology have proved to be reliable engines of economic growth. If homegrown interest in those fields is not regenerated soon, the comfortable lifestyle to which Americans have become accustomed will draw to a rapid close.
387
As soon as I step on that stage, nothing matters. I don’t think of it as work. It’s just so much fun.
388
Persons who are born too soon or born too late seldom achieve the eminence of those who are born at the right time.
389
I wasted a lot of years working on my writing and very grandly saying, ‘And now… My Novel!,’ which would soon be reduced to a short story, then to a paragraph.
390
This is the first time in 10 years I don’t know what I’m doing next, and I’m rather enjoying it. Soon I’ll be climbing the walls no doubt, but right now, it’s not clear, I’m just enjoying the freedom.
391
I do remember that I was sitting in the make-up chair before the shoots for a commercial or film or other, and I thought: Sometime soon they are going to make a close-up of me and millions of people can see how many pimples I’ve got on my cheeks.
392
I hope somebody hits .400 soon. Then people can start pestering that guy with questions about the last guy to hit .400.
393
The fact that I’ve achieved this so soon is just a bonus, I guess. Everything from now on is a bonus for me.
394
395
Life as we know it, with all its ups and downs, will soon be over. We all will give an accounting to God of how we have lived.
396
One precedent creates another and they soon accumulate and constitute law. What yesterday was a fact, today is doctrine.
397
I’m not one of these guys who says, Now I’m on a really hot show, better quit soon before I get labeled. That’s the most ridiculous notion I’d ever heard.
398
Upon the subjects of which I have treated, I have spoken as I have thought. I may be wrong in regard to any or all of them; but, holding it a sound maxim that it is better only sometimes to be right than at all times to be wrong, so soon as I discover my opinions to be erroneous, I shall be ready to renounce them.
399
If ever a man and his wife, or a man and his mistress, who pass nights as well as days together, absolutely lay aside all good breeding, their intimacy will soon degenerate into a coarse familiarity, infallibly productive of contempt or disgust.
400
It will, of course, be understood that directly or indirectly, soon or late, every advance in the sciences of human nature will contribute to our success in controlling human nature and changing it to the advantage of the common weal.
401
Our plan is to struggle against terrorism and have security for the country and help draft a democratic constitution as soon as possible.
402
403
404
405
An attempt to write nothing but characterization will soon bog down; I for one don’t want to have somebody tell me about someone else.
406
I say that I’ve never been late with a manuscript, but I don’t mean to be arrogant; it’s that I simply want to get it done as soon as possible so I can be set free.
407
408
As soon as I get into my house, I put on sweats and pyjamas.
409
A colour is a physical object as soon as we consider its dependence, for instance, upon its luminous source, upon other colours, upon temperatures, upon spaces, and so forth.
410
I hope to actually get back to painting someday… soon. I sort of transitioned into cartooning from painting.
411
412
Let’s be honest, I don’t think anyone ever wants to settle down in Hollywood – it’s a place you go to work. And once you’ve hit it, you get out of there as soon as you can. It’s definitely not a place you want to get married and have kids.
413
414
If you love your work, you’ll be out there every day trying to do it the best you possibly can, and pretty soon everybody around will catch the passion from you – like a fever.
415
There’s only one way to have a happy marriage and as soon as I learn what it is I’ll get married again.
416
Some young stars go a little too far too soon.
417
If China stood on an equal basis with other nations, she could compete freely with them in the economic field and be able to hold her own without failure. But as soon as foreign nations use political power as a shield for their economic designs, then China is at a loss how to resist or to compete successfully with them.
418
They don’t actually see the real world, where 95% of the people with HIV are not treated and are dying. And even though we have some blue sky now in our country, the sky could become cloudy again very soon.
419
420
421
As soon as you get a certain amount of attention, then everybody kinda wants to start taking pot shots at you. All your old friends that supported you don’t support you any more.
422
423
The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon.
424
I was a good amateur but only an average professional. I soon realized that there was a limit to how far I could rise in the music business, so I left the band and enrolled at New York University.
425
It’s very interesting how life imitates art, and art imitates life; I find, whenever I read scenes of some magnitude, I’m like, ‘Oh, I feel like I’ve experienced this,’ or ‘I am experiencing this,’ or ‘I might start to experience it soon.’
426
I am a Korean War veteran. I support our troops as much as anyone in this body, but I do so by advocating redeployment out of Iraq as soon as it can be safely done.
427
428
I’ve been drawing as long as I can remember. I think all children draw as soon as they figure out the thumb and can grab crayons. The only difference with people like myself is that we never stopped drawing.
429
In times of peace, the war party insists on making preparation for war. As soon as prepared for, it insists on making war.
430
I’ve got a book coming out soon so I just must get some weight off.
431
432
433
As soon as I accomplish one goal, I replace it with another one. I try not to get too far ahead of myself. I just say to myself, ‘All right, well, I’d like to headline a tour,’ and then when I get there, we’ll see what my next goal is.
434
435
I soon gave up instruction for self-teaching.
436
Never give up, which is the lesson I learned from boxing. As soon as you learn to never give up, you have to learn the power and wisdom of unconditional surrender, and that one doesn’t cancel out the other; they just exist as contradictions. The wisdom of it comes as you get older.
437
If Nixon is not forced to turn over tapes of his conversations with the ring of men who were conversing on their violations of the law, then liberty will soon be dead in this nation.
438
439
I can never be safe; I always try and go against the grain. As soon as I accomplish one thing, I just set a higher goal. That’s how I’ve gotten to where I am.
440
441
Soon after joining the Ministry of Health in Ethiopia, I was called upon as part of team to respond to a malaria outbreak. My team was dispatched to a village in southwestern Ethiopia, where I not only observed the malaria epidemic‘s shocking effects on adults and children but also experienced it first-hand.
442
As soon as television became the only secondary way in which films were watched, films had to adhere to a pretty linear system, whereby you can drift off for ten minutes and go and answer the phone and not really lose your place.
443
China will soon emit more greenhouse gases than America, but its regime knows if it caps aspirations there will be a revolution.
444
Perhaps we shall also have to hold in check other coloured peoples who will soon be in their certain prime, and thus preserve the world, which is the world of our blood, of our children and of our grandchildren.
445
446
I’d always been fascinated by death, which sounds so morbid. Especially being a woman trying to make music, I think there’s a sense that you’re never young enough, or your career is going to end soon.
447
448
People already have bionic arms and legs that work by the power of thought. And we increasingly outsource mental and communicative activities to computers. We are merging with our smartphones. Very soon, they will just be part of the body.
449
A liberal is a man who is right most of the time, but he’s right too soon.
450
451
452
By gold all good faith has been banished; by gold our rights are abused; the law itself is influenced by gold, and soon there will be an end of every modest restraint.
453
454
I do see myself going to LA. Not anytime soon.
455
I felt that working at an office from the early morning was impossible for me. Anyway, I wanted to be free from that lifestyle as soon as possible. I wanted to take it easy.
456
457
Of course, relative citation frequencies are no measure of relative importance. Who has not aspired to write a paper so fundamental that very soon it is known to everyone and cited by no one?
458
I had this instinct and I just knew it. It was a very strange thing and as soon as I finished recording it, we were all in the studio saying we have something really special here.
459
As soon as we step beyond the established boundaries of pure thermodynamic theory, we enter a trackless region confronting us with obstacles which even the most astute of us are almost at a loss to tackle.
460
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.
461
Remember even though the outside world might be raining, if you keep on smiling the sun will soon show its face and smile back at you.
462
463
464
As soon as I started reading, I found myself drawn to fictional character’s homes as much as I was to the characters themselves.
465
As soon as I found out there was a school you could go to to become a WWE superstar, I was immediately hooked.
466
I wish to clarify that I have absolutely not made a decision regarding my participation in the next Olympics. On a personal level, playing in the Olympics would be a huge honour. However, the Games in Rio are still four years away and I certainly won’t be making any decisions with regards to participating any time soon.
467
Everything becomes a little different as soon as it is spoken out loud.
468
We begin to die as soon as we are born, and the end is linked to the beginning.
469
Charm them with your presence as soon as they look at you.
470
471
As soon as you are a woman with an opinion, and they don’t like it, the haters will come out in full force.
472
As I was born to be unfortunate, my sun soon clouded.
473
I don’t like to talk much with people who always agree with me. It is amusing to coquette with an echo for a little while, but one soon tires of it.
474
475
The man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does.
476
Nowadays, as soon as a striker scores three goals, everyone starts asking him about it.
477
You cannot catch a child’s spirit by running after it; you must stand still and for love it will soon itself return.
478
479
I’m continuing to produce and will start a new record soon, as well.
480
481
I have a statement on the Social Security. A lot of people approaching that age have either already retired on pensions or have made irreversible plans to retire very soon… I consider it a breach of faith to renege on that promise. It is a rotten thing to do.
482
Soon, I’m going to need help crossing the street.
483
I forget a book as soon as I finish writing it, which is not always a good thing.
484
485
Diabetes is a disease that’s had a deep impact on my family. My little brother has had type 1 diabetes since he was a baby and I have spent time learning about the disease and trying to bring attention to it so that one day soon we will reach a cure.
486
Mr. Darwin refers to the multitude of the individual of every species, which, from one cause or another, perish either before, or soon after attaining maturity.
487
488
It’s a bit like some martial arts: if you’re behind somebody there’s not much they can do, if you’re in a certain position. So same thing with a fish, if you’re in the right position you’re okay. As soon as you get in the wrong position you can be in very real danger.
489
490
So soon as a fashion is universal, it is out of date.
491
492
I need time, but as soon as possible, we are going to try to create team spirit. That is the most important thing. After that, you can create tactics, but we have to create something special with ourselves.
493
494
My daughter is 15. None of her friends know who the hell Chris Rea is, but they know that song – as soon as it comes on, they start singing it. I’ve played with everyone from Status Quo to Talk Talk, but nothing impresses them as much as the fact that I play on ‘Driving Home for Christmas.’
495
496
497
If my soccer career were over, I would still come here because of the people. And despite the fact I’ve had to skip some school for National Team purposes, I am looking forward to holding that Carolina degree as soon as I can get my hands on it.
498
The wave of the Islamic revolution will soon reach the entire world.
499
Dad used to accompany me to the sets. Soon, he realized there is nothing to worry about and now I am on my own.
500
Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. Truly appreciate those around you, and you’ll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life, and you’ll find that you have more of it.
501
502
503
504
505
506
I shall soon be six-and-twenty. Is there anything in the future that can possibly console us for not being always twenty-five?
507
508
509
510
511
I need to become the undisputed heavyweight champion. As soon as I become, I will turn back and say, ‘Guys, thank you very much for your participation. Thanks everyone.’ I will thank the Lord, I will go to the ground and say farewell, and I will go home.
512
The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on.
513
We have been so successful in the past century at the art of living longer and staying alive that we have forgotten how to die. Too often we learn the hard way. As soon as the baby boomers pass pensionable age, their lesson will be harsher still.
514
515
Almost as soon as I went vegan, people started telling me that my skin looked great, and that I appeared younger, slimmer, and healthier. I’m convinced that of all the changes I’ve made to my lifestyle, it’s the adoption of a vegan diet that has been best for me – physically, mentally, and certainly spiritually.
516
Flowers heal me. Tulips make me happy. I keep myself surrounded by them as soon as they start coming to the island from Canada, and after that when they come from the fields in La Connor, not far from where I live.
517
Human kindness is like a defective tap, the first gush may be impressive but the stream soon dries up.
518
Growing up, we played sports nonstop. I mean every single day. As soon I got done with breakfast, I was ready to go.
519
520
We are going as fast as we can as soon as we can. We’re in a race against time, until we run out of money.
521
My mother told me once that she had her talk with God whenever she started a new sweater: ‘Please don’t take me in the middle of the sweater.’ And as soon as she finished knitting a sweater, and it was blocked and put together, she already had the wool to start the next sweater so that nothing bad would happen.
522
523
524
We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.
525
The question is: how bad do things have to get before you will do something about it? Where is your line in the sand? If you don’t enforce the constitutional limitations on your government very soon, you are likely to find out what World War III will be like.
526
Three big assumptions proved wrong: one, that the Iraqi people would welcome us as liberators; two, that oil would soon pay for Iraqi’s rebuilding; and, three, that we have plenty of troops, weapons, and equipment for the postwar situation.
527
If your business is really easy to do, don’t gloat. You might be out of a job soon.
528
Now, the entire world community recognizes Georgia. We are members of the United Nations and the Council of Europe. Everything is being prepared so that we will soon enter the European Union.
529
If you ever have the good fortune to create a great advertising campaign, you will soon see another agency steal it. This is irritating, but don’t let it worry you; nobody has ever built a brand by imitating somebody else’s advertising.
530
In this atmosphere I soon became interested in nucleic acids.
531
And that’s how I wrote to NICAP, but then later, just very soon after that, like three weeks later, we started getting phone calls from government agents.
532
533
Hollywood, it has treated me so nicely, I am ready to faint! As soon as I see Hollywood, I love it.
534
Consider one possible future that could occur soon, where autonomous trucks travel highways with a human ‘monitor‘ in the cab who can assist with particularly challenging driving like navigating city centres and ensure goods are delivered safely.
535
Instant gratification is not soon enough.
536
537
538
I was read to as a small child, I read on my own as soon as I could, and I recall being more or less overwhelmed again and again – if not by what the books actually said, by what they suggested, what they helped me to imagine.
539
540
Often, I can scarcely hear any one speaking to me; the tones yes, but not the actual words; yet as soon as any one shouts, it is unbearable. What will come of all this, heaven only knows!
541
Our clothes are going to pieces fast. Send provisions as soon as possible.
542
543
The filth and noise of the crowded streets soon destroy the elasticity of health which belongs to the country boy.
544
Our people were very restive, saying that they could not sit under that notice, and that if the National Board did not call them out soon they would go out of themselves.
545
The human brain is a wonderful organ. It starts to work as soon as you are born and doesn’t stop until you get up to deliver a speech.
546
547
548
549
Democracy’s a very fragile thing. You have to take care of democracy. As soon as you stop being responsible to it and allow it to turn into scare tactics, it’s no longer democracy, is it? It’s something else. It may be an inch away from totalitarianism.
550
551
552
One always dies too soon or too late. And yet, life is there, finished: the line is drawn, and it must all be added up. You are nothing other than your life.
553
I try to start drinking water as soon as my feet hit the floor in the morning.
554
We hope and we’ve made clear that the forces need to come out. It needs to be full and complete withdrawal. Our position is it needs to be done as soon as possible so that the elections can be free, fair and free of outside influence.
555
Those who set out to serve both God and Mammon soon discover that there is no God.
556
557
I was told once if I kept breaking things on my legs, that I wasn’t going to be able to walk soon, you know? I wanted to be a pro skateboarder, but it was too hard. I was trying, but it wasn’t going to happen.
558
As soon as I had seen Fay Wray and spoken with her for a few minutes, I knew I had found the right girl.
559
It was Max Perutz who inspired me to go into structural biology when he gave a lecture at Harvard in 1963. As soon as I heard him talk, I decided that this is what I want to do.
560
As soon as the land of any country has all become private property, the landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed, and demand a rent even for its natural produce.
561
562
563
I’m at that point in my life where I definitely want to get married soon. I’ve got my dogs as surrogates, but I’m ready for kids.
564
If you feel well and happy, your face will reflect this, but if you are down in the dumps and having a miserable time, your face will soon show this, too. In fact, you get the face you deserve by the time you’re forty, and one of the keys to looking and feeling younger is being active.
565
566
567
Without butterflies, the world would soon have few flowers. There is enough room in the sky for all flyers.
568
We must welcome the future, remembering that soon it will be the past; and we must respect the past, remembering that it was once all that was humanly possible.
569
I took group lessons at a rink near my home. We first had to learn how to stand up on the ice wearing skates. Eventually we learned to move forward, but soon found out that it was not that easy to stop! So that was our next important lesson.
570
571
Being right too soon is socially unacceptable.
572
573
574
Habits in writing as in life are only useful if they are broken as soon as they cease to be advantageous.
575
576
My parents know I was outgoing as a child, and whenever people came over, I’d automatically do impressions of them as soon as they left; it was my mom’s favorite thing. Yes, I grew up in Hollywood, but not in any rich neighborhood.
577
Most controversies would soon be ended, if those engaged in them would first accurately define their terms, and then adhere to their definitions.
578
579
580
As soon as my brain starts working on reading a book, my dreams get a little more exciting, and music comes a little more naturally for me.
581
There is poetry as soon as we realize that we possess nothing.
582
I’d just as soon stay home and raise babies.
583
584
I’m absolutely strict about it. When I land, I put my watch right, and I don’t care what I feel like, I will go to bed at half past eleven. If that means going to bed early or late, that’s what I live by. As soon as you get there, live by that time.
585
586
I came into the world two months too soon, I was in such a hurry.
587
Influenced by him, and probably even more so by my brother Theodore (a year older than me), I soon became interested in biology and developed a respect for the importance of science and the scientific method.
588
As kids we didn’t complain about being poor; we talked about how rich we were going to be and made moves to get the lifestyle we aspired to by any means we could. And as soon as we had a little money, we were eager to show it.
589
When I follow the finals of the European Cups, I look at all the aspects surrounding protocol, to get some ideas. I am interested in personalities, sponsors and the stands. But as soon as the whistle goes, it’s all on the pitch.
590
591
It’s funny how all of this has worked out – I wasn’t popular in high school, but now every drunken guy in the United States wants to be my pal. They all want to buy me a shot, and pretty soon I’m throwing up.
592
593
I’m just glad to be feeling better. I really thought I’d be seeing Elvis soon.
594
A fool and her money are soon courted.
595
596
We must not try to force him to take civilization immediately in its complete form, but under just laws, guaranteeing to Indians equal civil laws, the Indian question, a source of such dishonor to our country and of shame to true patriots, will soon be a thing of the past.
597
598
599
600
It is always best to settle all outstanding financial matters as soon as divorce proceedings are concluded.
601
‘Maya Nadhi’ came soon after ‘Njandu.’ I auditioned twice, before being chosen. The shoot is so much fun and is a big training ground for a debutante like me.
602
Know what’s weird? Day by day, nothing seems to change. But pretty soon, everything’s different.
603
