God is my witness that up to now, my only aspiration in life is to be a useful element within the army!

32

34
35
Even if you fall on your face, you’re still moving forward.
36

To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.
38
39
DJ Envy‘s definitely talk about me, but I’m one of many. I was under the assumption that he had kids but wasn’t actually married. I found out around the time that I started filming ‘Love & Hip Hop.’ After I found out, I was still in shock because we were together for so long.
40
Maybe I’m young, but I still have an old school feel to me.
41
For African-Americans, it’s still going to be – some people say double hard – I’d say four times as hard. Be an opportunist. Take advantage of your resources, because the only way to win is with education, self-esteem, having value in yourself.
42
I think what it takes to succeed remains the same. You have to have a real love of your sport to carry you through all the bad times, you still want to go ski even when things aren’t working. You must have a commitment to work hard and to never give up.

49
50

51
52
53
I don’t trust politicians. I think that by the time they’ve made it, with the concessions they’ve had to make in that position, I don’t believe they still have the beliefs they had at the root.
54
The Philippines has vast minerals that are still untapped. It has one of the world’s largest deposits of gold, nickel, copper and chromite. Through responsible mining, we intend to generate more revenues from the extraction of these resources.
55
56
57
58
We don’t know the probabilities of future events. Still, you have to take action, and so you do it on gut feeling. That’s the world we live in.
59
Awards are wonderful. I’ve been nominated many times and I’ve won many awards. But my journey is not towards that. If it happens it will be a blast. If it doesn’t, it’s still been a blast.
60
Even when I’m old and grey, I won’t be able to play it, but I’ll still love the game.
61
62
63
64
Whether I’m playing right now or not, I still have an opportunity to get better in practice. It’s like sharpening my blade.
65
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.
66
67
68

71
72

75

I’ve been motivated by overcoming challenge and overcoming the hurdles and obstacles that face me. There still is plenty out there to get motivated by.
83
Anything can change, because the smartphone revolution is still in the early stages.
84
If I can be some kind of vessel to show people that, no matter the hard time you experienced, you can still succeed, I want to put out that positive energy to never quit and never give up.
85
Sending a handwritten letter is becoming such an anomaly. It’s disappearing. My mom is the only one who still writes me letters. And there’s something visceral about opening a letter – I see her on the page. I see her in her handwriting.
86
The lessons I learned from the dark days at Alibaba are that you’ve got to make your team have value, innovation, and vision. Also, if you don’t give up, you still have a chance. And, when you are small, you have to be very focused and rely on your brain, not your strength.
87
88
I think Freddie Mercury is probably the best of all time in terms of a rock voice. There was a vulnerability to it, his technical ability was amazing, and so much of his personality would come out through his voice. I’m not even a guy to buy Queen records, really, and I still think he’s one of the best.
89
If something is boring after two minutes, try it for four. If still boring, then eight. Then sixteen. Then thirty-two. Eventually one discovers that it is not boring at all.

91
92
93

Over time, I have come to believe that ‘brave‘ does not mean what we think it does. It does not mean ‘being afraid and doing it anyway.’ Nope. Brave means listening to the still small voice inside and doing as it says. Regardless of what the rest of the world is saying.
103
I don’t know if I practiced more than anybody, but I sure practiced enough. I still wonder if somebody – somewhere – was practicing more than me.
104
When things are going bad, don’t get all bummed out. Don’t get startled; don’t get frustrated. If you can say the word ‘good,’ guess what? It means you’re still alive. It means you’re still breathing.
105
106
107
108

114
Life itself still remains a very effective therapist.
115
I’m a perfectionist, and even if something comes out great, it’s still not perfect, you know?
116
117
People still think of me as a cartoonist, but the only thing I lift a pen or pencil for these days is to sign a contract, a check, or an autograph.
118
I tell people a lot of times, if you want to be a part of something, you never know, you kind of just have to be around. A lot of people don’t really have the patience for it, and they don’t stick around. Dre and I are still working together, and we have plenty of music for the future.
119
If your mom is still around, you’re so lucky.
120
121
Everyone has to make their own decisions. I still believe in that. You just have to be able to accept the consequences without complaining.
122
The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.
123
124
125
I wouldn’t change myself for anybody. I am who I am; people accept me, or they don’t. I have my strengths and my weaknesses, which I can try to improve upon, of course. I’m still not the finished product.
126
127
Love is whatever you can still betray. Betrayal can only happen if you love.

132

135
We have much work ahead, to stand still.
136
During my days of deepest grief, in all of my shock, sorrow and struggle, I sat at the feet of God. I literally spent hours each day reading God’s word, meditating on scripture and praying. I intentionally spent a significant amount of time being still before God.
137
I’m not a real movie star. I’ve still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
138
If you stand still there is only one way to go, and that’s backwards.
139
Quite frankly, Russian aggression in Ukraine and its illegal occupation of Crimea remind us that we still have a good deal more work to do to guarantee the strategic vision of a Europe whole, free and at peace.
140
141
The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there… and still on your feet.
142
143
144
145
146

147
Even if the most ethical people were elected to high position and we ran out of resources, there would still be lying, cheating, stealing, and corruption. It is not ethical people that are needed but rather a way of intelligently managing the Earth’s resources for everyone’s well-being.
148
149
150
If we still advise we shall never do.
151

155
156
157
A mother is a mother still, The holiest thing alive.
158
What I realized is that it doesn’t matter how big or small your film is. The actual filmmaking process, the actual storytelling, it’s still the same thing. It’s still all about creating characters that you like and creating moments that get you excited or get you tense.
159
Repeal the Missouri Compromise – repeal all compromises – repeal the Declaration of Independence – repeal all past history, you still cannot repeal human nature. It will be the abundance of man’s heart that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.
160
161
I am insecure about tomorrow. Will I get another job? Will it be appreciated? I will pursue acting for as long as I have a face and body that is acceptable to the people, but I still worry that if I don’t do better tomorrow, it will all go away.
162
163
Ten percent of the big fish still remain. There are still some blue whales. There are still some krill in Antarctica. There are a few oysters in Chesapeake Bay. Half the coral reefs are still in pretty good shape, a jeweled belt around the middle of the planet. There’s still time, but not a lot, to turn things around.
164
165
The American Dream is still alive out there, and hard work will get you there. You don’t necessarily need to have an Ivy League education or to have millions of dollars startup money. It can be done with an idea, hard work and determination.
166
The reason I made my stage name Kali Uchis is because it’s still me in the sense that, my dad called me ‘Kali Uchis’ my whole life. It’s still something I’ve been called since I was a baby. It’s still me.
167
168
169
170
A child raised on a desert island, alone, without social interaction, without language, and thus lacking empathy, is still a sentient being.
171
172
173
174
175

176
177
178

180
My work will speak for me. In fact, I never had a PR and I still don’t.
181
182
When we speak we are afraid our words will not be heard or welcomed. But when we are silent, we are still afraid. So it is better to speak.
183
It’s still scary every time I go back to the past. Each morning, my heart catches. When I get there, I remember how the light was, where the draft was coming from, what odors were in the air. When I write, I get all the weeping out.
184
185
186
There are still civil rights issues. There are still people who can’t be visited by their spouse in the hospital because they’re gay. These are humanitarian issues. At the end of the day, all you want is for people to be happy in the pursuit of life, love and liberty.
187
188
I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God’s help I shall succeed.

191
I might run from her for a thousand years and she is still my baby child. Our love is so furious that we burn each other out.
192
Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.
193
194
195
196
197
I’m blessed to come from a family with five brothers. We’re all physical and athletic and like to work out, like to be outside, like to throw the ball around. We spent our entire childhoods on some kind of corner or in a field. We still do a Turkey Bowl every Thanksgiving. It gets competitive, man. Bloody.
198
The human longings that are deep inside of us never go away. They exist across cultures; they exist throughout life. When people were first made, our deepest longing was to know and be known. And after the Fall, when we all got weird, it’s still our deepest longing – but it’s now also our deepest fear.
199
No matter how civilized we are and how much society has curbed violent behavior. Human beings still have the same genes they had 10,000 years ago. Our bodies are designed to have a certain amount of physical stress and violence in them. We’re designed to run from jaguars and fight to defend our territory.
200
It doesn’t matter if I’ve been wronged – I still have a responsibility to use my influence in a way that never causes harm.
201
202
203
I may be a senior, but so what? I’m still hot.
204
205
206
I loved her. I still love her, though I curse her in my sleep, so nearly one are love and hate, the two most powerful and devasting emotions that control man, nations, life.
207
208
Feeling good about government is like looking on the bright side of any catastrophe. When you quit looking on the bright side, the catastrophe is still there.
209
210
211
A stupid person is someone who has the facts, who has the proper information, and still makes the wrong decision.
212
213
The first sign of corruption in a society that is still alive is that the end justifies the means.
214
I am suggesting that as we go through life, we ‘accentuate the positive.’ I am asking that we look a little deeper for the good, that we still our voices of insult and sarcasm, that we more generously compliment and endorse virtue and effort.
215
216
Around a third of parents still worry that they will look like a bad mother or father if their child has a mental health problem. Parenting is hard enough without letting prejudices stop us from asking for the help we need for ourselves and our children.
217
I don’t see myself as a photographer. I still see the photographs and collages as a resource for the painting.
218
219
220
Without the name, any flower is still more or less a stranger to you. The name betrays its family, its relationship to other flowers, and gives the mind something tangible to grasp. It is very difficult for persons who have had no special training to learn the names of the flowers from the botany.
221
222
There are things that I am nostalgic about from the ‘good old days.’ I loved motion control cameras, actually. I love the way they sound. I used to do a lot of miniature work, and it’s still warranted, but it’s done less often, largely for budgetary, schedule, and flexibility reasons.
223
224
I shall endeavour still further to prosecute this inquiry, an inquiry I trust not merely speculative, but of sufficient moment to inspire the pleasing hope of its becoming essentially beneficial to mankind.
225
226
Heaven wheels above you, displaying to you her eternal glories, and still your eyes are on the ground.
227
228
I’m learning that you can be comfortable and still look beautiful.
229
I am the baby in the family, and I always will be. I am actually very happy to have that position. But I still get teased. I don’t mind that.
230
231
And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world it is best to hold hands and stick together.
232
You fight, you try your best, but if you lose, you don’t have to break five racquets and smash up the locker room. You can do those things, but when you’ve finished, nothing’s changed. You’ve still lost. If something positive came from that, I probably would do it. But I see only negativity.
233
234
235
236
If you can’t answer a man’s arguments, all is not lost; you can still call him vile names.
237
Of all of our inventions for mass communication, pictures still speak the most universally understood language.
238
239
I see you’re a man with ideals. I better be going before you’ve still got them.
240

241

242
I still have my feet on the ground, I just wear better shoes.
243
No matter how much you plan and prepare, things can still go wrong.
244
The United States has to move very fast to even stand still.
245
246
Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.
247
If a million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing.
248
We’re on some path that’s set since we’re born, but I still believe we can change some things. So I believe in my faith, but I still don’t believe in my fate.
249
Having the right people around you all the time is important. I do take the acting seriously. But this is all fun. I look at it like smoke and mirrors. I still think it’s a dream, but I ain’t pinching myself yet.
250
Shoot for the moon and if you miss you will still be among the stars.
251
If you spend any time with a man, you’ll realize that we’re all still little boys.
252
A girl can wait for the right man to come along but in the meantime that still doesn’t mean she can’t have a wonderful time with all the wrong ones.
253
254
255
When I was young, I had to learn the fundamentals of basketball. You can have all the physical ability in the world, but you still have to know the fundamentals.
256
Music is still part of my life, but I hate the idea of people coming to see me play the guitar because they’ve seen me in movies. You want people who are listening to be only interested in the music.
257
258
259
I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.
260
I live in a village where people still care about each other, largely.
261
262
263
Yes, we’ve still got more work to do. More work to do for every American still in need of a good job or a raise, paid leave or a decent retirement; for every child who needs a sturdier ladder out of poverty or a world-class education; for everyone who has not yet felt the progress of these past seven and a half years.
264
265
I don’t believe it. Prove it to me and I still won’t believe it.
266
267
Recreational development is a job not of building roads into the lovely country, but of building receptivity into the still unlovely human mind.
268
269
Eternity: a moment standing still for ever.
270
271
The best part is still ahead of me – I haven’t experienced my ‘good old days’ yet.
272
To be able to travel the world, especially to places I never thought I’d be… it’s really, you know, still fascinating for me.
273
274
I have so many different personalities in me and I still feel lonely.
275
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.
276
As long as there’s breath in our lungs our story is still being written.
277
278
279
If you are different, or you have minimum possibilities, you can still succeed. I am living proof of that.
280
We’ve come a long way from the days where there was state-enforced segregation. But we still have a way to go.
281
282
283
I love the fact that we are surrounded by this spectacular natural beauty that routinely strikes us dead. Hikers walk off into the woods and are never seen again. And still we tug on our fleece and skip off into the wilderness, not a care in the world.
284
Even if the government spends itself into bankruptcy and the economy still does not recover, Keynesians can always say that it would have worked if only the government had spent more.
285
If my body is enslaved, still my mind is free.
286
287
288
289
I grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico, which is my hometown. In Los Alamos is, for people who don’t know, a nuclear lab that built the atomic bomb. The only reason the town exists is to make nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction, and that’s still happening there.
290
291
292
The most thought-provoking thing in our thought-provoking time is that we are still not thinking.
293
294
295
Five years from now I see myself still working hard to get where I want to be, because I think big.
296
297
I used to think, ‘How can I write my life story? I’m still living it.’
298
299
Memorial Day isn’t just about honoring veterans, its honoring those who lost their lives. Veterans had the fortune of coming home. For us, that’s a reminder of when we come home we still have a responsibility to serve. It’s a continuation of service that honors our country and those who fell defending it.
300
There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage, his character, his self respect, or his self-confidence. He is still a King.
301
302
If it’s a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on.
303
I’m still stuck in the Stonewall in 1968. I never left the Stonewall.
304
Let the punishments of criminals be useful. A hanged man is good for nothing; a man condemned to public works still serves the country, and is a living lesson.
305
I come away from a gig thinking, ‘Yeah, I’m worth something.’ I can still do it and entertain people, and that’s worth it.
306
For us in Russia, communism is a dead dog, while, for many people in the West, it is still a living lion.
307
The increasing frequency of extreme weather events, droughts and floods is in line with what climate scientists have been predicting for decades – and evidence is mounting that what’s happening is more severe than predicted, and will get far worse still if we fail to act.
308
309
310
By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.
311
312
313
I’m still in love with what I do, with the idea of making things up, so hours when I write always feel like very blessed hours to me.
314
I still do believe in carrying yourself a certain way, and I do my best to be somewhat of a role model. I’m not a perfect person. I’m a human being. I’m not the Lord, but I do accept that responsibility, and that’s why I do try to carry myself with confidence, with poise, with grace, and with class.
315
I’ve always preferred writing about grey characters and human characters. Whether they are giants or elves or dwarves, or whatever they are, they’re still human, and the human heart is still in conflict with the self.
316
317
318
319
I still have my unemployment books and I remember when I worked for the sanitation department and the post office.
320
321
322
323
In the public eye, girls and women with strong perspectives are hated. If you’re a girl with an opinion, people just hate you. There are still people who are afraid of successful women, and that’s so lame.
324
325
Woman’s at best a contradiction still.
326
If in doubt, don’t. If still in doubt, do what’s right.
327
Yes, I’m still going to misbehave!
328

330
As a young actor, people were trying to define who I was before I really knew that for myself. But I still remember thinking, ‘This is what I love doing, and I hope I’m going to be able to do it forever.’
331
332
333
Any girl can look glamorous. All you have to do is stand still and look stupid.
334
It was like I was in a tunnel. Not only the tunnel under the hotel but the whole circuit was a tunnel. I was just going and going, more and more and more and more. I was way over the limit but still able to find even more.
335
336
For people living with HIV, the knowledge that undetectable equals untransmittable is huge news, not only as a means of preventing transmission, but in breaking down the stigma that many people still experience.
337
338
When my girl do better than me, I still win. When I do better than her, she still wins.
339
340
I remember when I was a freshman in college, I was still somewhat bothered by… worried… about religion. I remember going to this professor of philosophy and telling him that I had lost my faith.
341
342
I still say, ‘Shoot for the moon; you might get there.’
343
You win a race, the next race it’s a question mark. Are you still the best or not? That’s what is funny. But that’s what is interesting. And that’s what is challenging. You have to prove yourself every time.
344
As the time goes by, you change, your learn new things, your attitude is different. For the moment, I’m still enjoying ski racing so much that it would be difficult for me to think about ending my career.
345
The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.
346
I didn’t learn how to swing a golf club until late in my career. And even though I won all those tournaments, I still struggled with consistency, and I relied on my strengths, which were hitting the ball long and high, and I could chip and putt with the best of ’em.
347
348
349
350
351
If I win, it’s a bonus. If I lose, the sun still comes up the next day, and it’s all good.
352
Even in five years time, he will still be four years younger than Damon Hill.
353
354
355
356
Americans… still believe in an America where anything’s possible – they just don’t think their leaders do.
357
I still have my feet on the ground, I just wear better shoes.
358
359
I still believe that if your aim is to change the world, journalism is a more immediate short-term weapon.
360
You can be the moon and still be jealous of the stars.
361
I’m most proud of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me, in my life. He’s given me the vision to truly see that you can fall down, but you can still get back up. Hopefully I’ll learn from my mistakes and have the opportunity to strengthen and improve the next thing I do.
362
363
Man does not live by soap alone; and hygiene, or even health, is not much good unless you can take a healthy view of it or, better still, feel a healthy indifference to it.
364
If it is true, for instance, that depression is constituted by low serotonin levels, what still needs to be explained is why particular individuals have low levels of serotonin. This requires a social and political explanation.
365
Being Puerto Rican, born and raised on the streets of New York, you go, ‘Wow, you’re still friends with your ex, man? Really? That’s weird.’ I don’t play that.
366
You’re still a person with or without that gold medal. It just represents the hard work.
367
368
369
370
Dennis Bergkamp is, in my eyes, still ‘The Master’. The fact that he never won the Champions League, the European Championship, or the World Cup does not take anything away from his greatness as a player.
371
372
373
I may have had a lot of luck in my life, but I still need to find a challenge in the game.
374
375
No one can confidently say that he will still be living tomorrow.
376
You can still say whatever you want to say on social media, but you have to be willing to stand by your words.
377
People have got to get together and work together. I’m tired of the kind of oppression that white people have inflicted on us and are still trying to inflict.
378
379
Living in a capital in Europe but still surrounded by mountains and ocean, my relationship to music was strongest walking to school and back. I would sing to myself and very quickly started mapping out my melodies to landscapes – at the time I just thought it was very matter of fact, a common thing to do.
380
381
When I wake up, I expect things to be good. If they’re not, then I try to set about trying to make them as good as I can ’cause I know I’m gonna have to live that day anyway. So why not try to make the most of it if you can? Some days, they pan out a little better than others, but you still gotta always just try.
382
Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.
383
There are still some people out there who believe comic books are nothing more than, well, comic books. But the true cognoscenti know graphic novels are – at their best – an amazing blend of art literature and the theater of the mind.
384
In the middle of a recession, where we’re just climbing out of it, where the economy -unemployment is still at 9.7 percent, the idea of raising taxes and reducing spending is a prescription for disaster.
385
For NASA, space is still a high priority.
386
387
People ask me if there are going to be stories of Harry Potter as an adult. Frankly, if I wanted to, I could keep writing stories until Harry is a senior citizen, but I don’t know how many people would actually want to read about a 65 year old Harry still at Hogwarts playing bingo with Ron and Hermione.
388
I still have a lot to learn, and I still have a lot to prove.
389
Dreams can still come true; you need a great deal of energy and determination, and a little bit of luck.
390
I’m an activist. I’m a proud activist. So I want to be someone who is pro-black and pro-Africa and still be somebody that has positive influence.
391
If a song was ever good, it’s still good.
392
393
394
Life is beautiful, what do you think? In the morning I say, ‘Ah, I am alive still!’ All my friends die already. I am alive. It is fantastic.
395
396
397
There is still no cure for the common birthday.
398
The human voice can never reach the distance that is covered by the still small voice of conscience.
399
400
401
I’m here. I’m not going anywhere. No matter what the injury – unless it’s completely debilitating – I’m going to be the same player I’ve always been. I’ll figure it out. I’ll make some tweaks, some changes, but I’m still coming.
402
I just wish the world was twice as big and half of it was still unexplored.
403
My dad is still Christian Scientist. My mom’s not, and I’m not. But I believe in God, and that there’s a higher power and an intelligence that’s bigger than us and that we can rely on. It’s not just us, thinking we are the ones in control of everything. That idea gives me support.
404
Just because I’ve got blonde hair and haven’t been to Bosnia doesn’t mean I’m a bimbo. I am still a serious journalist.
405
It’s getting harder and harder to differentiate between schizophrenics and people talking on a cell phone. It still brings me up short to walk by somebody who appears to be talking to themselves.
406
I still believe guitars will be around as long as there’s rock music.
407
408
It doesn’t matter if we grow old and get replaced by a new younger generation as long as there is still someone talking about us because they will still remember how we shone so bright.
409
A child’s spirit is like a child, you can never catch it by running after it; you must stand still, and, for love, it will soon itself come back.
410
If you’re losing your soul and you know it, then you’ve still got a soul left to lose.
411
412
I do not live in a world where people can walk on water, or still a storm, or take five loaves of bread and feed 5000 men plus women and children. If that is a requirement of my commitment to Jesus, I find it difficult to stretch my mind outside the capacities of my world view.
413
The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function.
414
Of all of our inventions for mass communication, pictures still speak the most universally understood language.
415
416
I get facials. I get a manicure and pedicure every week. I get my hair cut, and I oil myself down from head to toe. I got that from my brother. I was so impressed with how high maintenance he was. When he left the room, you could still smell him for an hour.
417
418
Four-fifths of all our troubles would disappear, if we would only sit down and keep still.
419
Life isn’t fair. It’s true, and you still have to deal with it. Whining about it rarely levels the playing field, but learning to rise above it is the ultimate reward.
420
It is really hard when you spend your life living out of a suitcase. But it really does weed out superficial people – if someone is still with you after the second movie, then they’re probably a good one! I like to trust people in general – it’s the southern girl in me.
421
Serenity is knowing that your worst shot is still pretty good.
422
Something similar is still true of the courses followed by manifold intuitions which together make up the unity of one continuous consciousness of one and the same object.
423
I examined a lot of CIA declassified UFO files, which are fascinating, because there was a huge UFO craze going on in America. There still is today, but it certainly started in ’47. And by the ’50s, it was in full force.
424
I am ecstatic that ‘KPC’ was a commercial hit and was critically acclaimed. The 60 days we shot for it were the best days of my life. I still get goosebumps when I think of them.
425
We think the whole world’s going to change, and forget that human beings are still human beings; we have the same five senses, we still interact the same way, we still love and hate the same way, but marketers lose track of that. But then it comes down to earth.
426
427
I have had an interest in art since childhood. I loved to draw as a child and still do.
428
429
After all these years, I am still involved in the process of self-discovery. It’s better to explore life and make mistakes than to play it safe. Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full life.
430
Any man who has had the job I’ve had and didn’t have a sense of humor wouldn’t still be here.
431
Transport of the mails, transport of the human voice, transport of flickering pictures-in this century as in others our highest accomplishments still have the single aim of bringing men together.
432
We still see that people don’t really realize that electric cars are here right now. And when we show up with an actual vehicle, and you see it drive away under its own power, it’s still kind of a jaw-dropping moment for a lot of people.
433
434
435
In poor countries, we still need better ways to measure the effectiveness of the many government workers providing health services. They are the crucial link bringing tools such as vaccines and education to the people who need them most. How well trained are they? Are they showing up to work?
436
But in the end it’s still a game of golf, and if at the end of the day you can’t shake hands with your opponents and still be friends, then you’ve missed the point.
437
Epilepsy is a disease in the shadows. Patients are often reluctant to admit their condition – even to close family, friends or co-workers – because there’s still a great deal of stigma and mystery surrounding the disease that plagued such historical figures as Julius Caesar, Edgar Allan Poe and Lewis Carroll.
438
Forty to 60 I would say is your prime. That’s when you know the most, you’ve seen the most, you understand the most, and you still have some physical energy.
439
440
441
Most of us weren’t born with a silver spoon in our mouth, but if life dealt you all the wrong cards, you still have to play.
442
443
I honestly think what skyrocketed me into professionalism was learning how to play two people and still live through the day.
444
Though I still have no semblance of a life outside of Nine Inch Nails at the moment, I realize my goals have gone from getting a record deal or selling another record to being a better person, more well-rounded, having friends, having a relationship with somebody.
445
All of life and human relations have become so incomprehensibly complex that, when you think about it, it becomes terrifying and your heart stands still.
446
You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don’t win, at least you can be satisfied that you’ve tried. If you don’t accept failure as a possibility, you don’t set high goals, you don’t branch out, you don’t try – you don’t take the risk.
447
448
449
450
If a man is talking in the forest, and there is no woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?
451
452
For I have learned to look on nature, not as in the hour of thoughtless youth, but hearing oftentimes the still, sad music of humanity.
453
454
If Antarctica were music it would be Mozart. Art, and it would be Michelangelo. Literature, and it would be Shakespeare. And yet it is something even greater; the only place on earth that is still as it should be. May we never tame it.
455
No one was more shocked or angry than I was when we didn’t find the weapons. I had a sickening feeling every time I thought about it. I still do.
456
457
458
Sorry, I’m still a dialectical materialist.
459
460
I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to express the views of black people who otherwise don’t have access to power and the media. I have to take advantage of that while I’m still bankable.
461
We might possess every technological resource… but if our language is inadequate, our vision remains formless, our thinking and feeling are still running in the old cycles, our process may be ‘revolutionary‘ but not transformative.
462
463
I am a coolie and the son of a coolie. I was born with the poor, and I am still poor. My sympathies have always been with the struggling mass.
464
We’re still in the first minutes of the first day of the Internet revolution.
465
As much as it might look like, to someone else, that I’m successful, I never feel like I’m anywhere. The further I go, I still feel equally further from my eventual goal. Because as I grow, I get more goals. I’m never content.
466
467
I want to tell women that you need to love yourself and make yourself a priority. It’s only when you are happy yourself, can you make everyone else around you happy. I am still a dreamer and still believe in fairy tales, but there is only that much one should give another person. You need to keep something for yourself.
468
We human beings are strange creatures and still reserve the right to think for ourselves.
469
Disasters happen. We still have no way to eliminate earthquakes, wildfires, hurricanes, floods or droughts. We cope as best we can by fortifying ourselves against danger with building codes and levees, and by setting aside money to clean up afterwards.
470
We proved that we are still a people capable of doing big things and tackling our biggest challenges.
471
The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within.
472
473
A life of stasis would be population control, combined with energy rationing. That is the stasis world that you live in if you stay. And even with improvements in efficiency, you’ll still have to ration energy. That, to me, doesn’t sound like a very exciting civilization for our grandchildren‘s grandchildren to live in.
474
Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.
475
476
Be still and cool in thine own mind and spirit.
477
In music, you can use metaphors with ease – if a person doesn’t understand the parable, they can still enjoy the melody of the music. If, however, a person reads a book and misses the meaning of its metaphors, this will be extremely disheartening for both the reader as well as the author.
478
We here a blink of an eye, even if we make it 75, 80 years, you still here a blink of an eye. Enjoy it.
479
480
Plato is dear to me, but dearer still is truth.
481
As people want to move money around the world, they’re going to be moving in and out of bitcoin quickly, but they’re still going to own it for some period of time… and the size of that working capital requirement will grow as the global economy grows.
482
483
Beto’s copy of the Bill of Rights goes from one to three. Mine includes the Second Amendment. But there are a whole host of people here in Washington… they would be happy to confiscate America’s guns. And if you don’t believe that, then you probably also still believe in Bigfoot.
484
There are still many causes worth sacrificing for, so much history yet to be made.
485
We have an obligation and a responsibility to be investing in our students and our schools. We must make sure that people who have the grades, the desire and the will, but not the money, can still get the best education possible.
486
For time and the world do not stand still. Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future.
487
If I were dropped out of a plane into the ocean and told the nearest land was a thousand miles away, I’d still swim. And I’d despise the one who gave up.
488
489
But you can travel on for ten thousand miles, and still stay where you are.
490
491
I had such a run of bad luck that you lose faith that good things are going to happen any more. I still don’t answer the door because I went through so long expecting it to be a bailiff.
492
Even if the flower is no more, still, the fragrance can be.
493
I think to be a great quarterback, you have to have a great leadership, great attention to detail, and a relentless competitive nature. And that’s what I try to bring to the table, and I have a long way to go. I’m still learning, and I’m still on a constant quest for knowledge.
494
495
496
Although I sometimes enjoy writing from an adult’s perspective, I feel dedicated to the coming of age story – that part of a young person‘s life where he must make a decision that will change his life forever. I still remember what it’s like to be twelve years old.
497
Be still and cool in thine own mind and spirit.
498
I did many stupid things. I made many mistakes, but I learnt from everything. I still make mistakes; I still learn from them. Nobody is perfect.
499
I went to a Steiner School, which is very small and nurturing and creative, so I felt like I was in an environment where I could mature. There was less of the clique-y stuff, which can really make high school a living hell for a lot of people, going on, so I was very similar then to who I am now. I’m still a dork.
500
I’m still growing each and every day. I’m trying to become a better person, a better player and an all-time better QB.
501
You know, when I have a bad game, it continues to humble me and know that, you know, you still have work to do and you still have a lot of people to impress.
502
503
504
505
Violin was my first form of expression – and is still in a lot of ways.
506
If you’re losing your soul and you know it, then you’ve still got a soul left to lose.
507
Why don’t you start believing that no matter what you have or haven’t done, that your best days are still out in front of you.
508
We are in niche consumption mode, but ‘niche’ doesn’t mean ‘small’ anymore. Niche can mean focused, and particularly with the Web, which is a global audience… you can have something niche and still get 10 to 15 million views.
509
510
Satan wants us to constantly focus on everything that is wrong with us and look at how far we still have to go. But God desires for us to rejoice in how far we have already come.
511
Retirement at sixty-five is ridiculous. When I was sixty-five I still had pimples.
512
513
The lesson is that you can still make mistakes and be forgiven.
514
Without going outside his race, and even among the better classes with their ‘white’ culture and conscious American manners, but still Negro enough to be different, there is sufficient matter to furnish a black artist with a lifetime of creative work.
515
If my parents were still alive, they would be very proud. They gave me a good start in life, the values that have driven me, and the confidence to believe in myself.
516
517
I felt perhaps ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ was a little premature. It was a huge hit around the world – it was still running in the theatres – and the Americans at that time were already shooting the remake, and I was like, ‘Whoa! Give it a break of five or six years and get a little inspired, and then do it.’
518
Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.
519
All lies and jests, still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.
520
I was a little different. I still say I’m a little different, because success to me is not having the most money, or having the biggest car or the biggest house.
521
522
If the newspapers cut me up so much that I shall not venture before the world again, I have resolved to become a house painter; that would be as easy as anything else, and I should, at any rate, still be an artist!
523
I didn’t lose. I got second. That’s still winning. How could I be unhappy with second place? There are a million people who would love to be in my position.
524
When ‘Goodfellas’ is on TNT, and they’ve taken out all the curse words and put Tide commercials in the middle of it, I’ll still watch ‘Goodfellas’ because it’s that great of a movie.
525
I have everything, yet have nothing; and although I possess nothing, still of nothing am I in want.
526
My goal is really to just make people laugh with integrity, like, with something that I still find funny.
527
528
The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind, and they are in continual danger of breaking the skin and bursting out again.
529
A nickname is the heaviest stone that the devil can throw at a man. It is a bugbear to the imagination, and, though we do not believe in it, it still haunts our apprehensions.
530
Technology is changing so fast that investment in hardware is getting riskier everyday. On the other hand, whether it is traditional computers or smart gadgets which are part of the convergence technologies of the future, some planning of hardware needs is still important.
531
532
Everybody’s a work in progress. I’m a work in progress. I mean, I’ve never arrived… I’m still learning all the time.
533
534
History develops, art stands still.
535
As a parent, it’s my responsibility to equip my child to do this – to grieve when grief is necessary and to realize that life is still profoundly beautiful and worth living despite the fact that we inevitably lose one another and that life ends, and we don’t know what happens after death.
536
Themes of redemption, temptation, and faith don’t necessarily apply directly to religion. A lot of people find faith in their lives outside of God and still deal with notions of temptation and redemption that aren’t religious.
537
I try to be as quiet as I can at the plate, but still aggressive.
538
Can I jump over two or three guys like I used to? No. Am I as fast as I used to be? No, but I still have the fundamentals and smarts. That’s what enables me to still be a dominant player. As a kid growing up, I never skipped steps. I always worked on fundamentals because I know athleticism is fleeting.
539
I have discovered that all human evil comes from this, man’s being unable to sit still in a room.
540
With half the race gone, there is half the race still to go.
541
Through a long and painful process, I’ve learned that happiness is an inside job – not based on anything or anyone in the outer material world. I’ve become a different and better person – not perfect, but still a work in progress.
542
543
544
The Web as I envisaged it, we have not seen it yet. The future is still so much bigger than the past.
545
546
To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.
547
People of African descent, most of us grew up accepting and loving Spider-Man. I still love Spider-Man. I still love the Incredible Hulk. I still have those characters that were white role models, superheroes, heroes – whatever you want to call it. You basically had no choice but to accept those.
548
549
I always love going home anyway; it’s where my roots are. I always like to go back. It’s a good reminder of where I started and the journey that I still have to go on to get where I want to be.
550
551
All human evil comes from a single cause, man’s inability to sit still in a room.
552
553
554
555
Shakespeare – I was very influenced – still am – by Shakespeare. I couldn’t believe that a white man in the 16th century could so know my heart.
556
As long as you’re having fun and still doing stuff, it doesn’t matter what other people think.
557
558
We say that slavery has vanished from European civilization, but this is not true. Slavery still exists, but now it applies only to women and its name is prostitution.
559
Respect for the fragility and importance of an individual life is still the mark of an educated man.
560
It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.
561
562
I do the same exercises I did 50 years ago and they still work. I eat the same food I ate 50 years ago and it still works.
563
564
The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman: if it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole world.
565
All things being equal, people will do business with a friend; all things being unequal, people will still do business with a friend.
566
567
568
I think that when people see that a successful person who has suffered and is a survivor of mental illness, and is still very successful, I think it gives them a lot of strength.
569
Whatever I like, even after a long time, I still like it. And I reminisce about the moment when I first heard it. That’s what I love. Just remembering those moments.
570
Through a long and painful process, I’ve learned that happiness is an inside job – not based on anything or anyone in the outer material world. I’ve become a different and better person – not perfect, but still a work in progress.
571
572
573
In political and social analysis, we still have not cut off the head of the king.
574
I’ve seen the ticket, and I still can’t believe it. When I see the money, I hope I don’t hit the floor.
575
I haven’t been baptised. My dad’s not in the church and is not a religious person. My mum is more spiritual – she does Thai-chi and goes to Stonehenge and things like that. I’m proud to be pagan. Finland is not really a religious country. I’m still looking for my god.
576
577
578
I think that’s the most beautiful thing about being confident – just loving yourself, not caring what everybody else thinks. Because you could be Mother Theresa, and people are still going to try to find some imperfection.
579
580
Once you realize that you’re in something that you’ve always wanted and you don’t want to lose it, you behave differently. And that means the integrity, the professionalism, and knowing what’s right from wrong and still making choices that you probably wouldn’t have made.
581
I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God’s help I shall succeed.
582
The work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dreams shall never die.
583
584
Of course, my mom is my biggest and loudest cheerleader, and my family and friends are happy for me, but I’m still just Angie, not Angie-the-author-with-this-hyped-up-book. I appreciate that.
585
The more you do stuff, the better you get at dealing with how you still fail at it a lot of the time.
586
