I think I lived those years very impersonally. It was almost as though I had erected someone outside myself who was the president‘s wife. I was lost somewhere deep down inside myself. That is the way I felt and worked until I left the White House.
186
I’ve never been much of a computer guy at least in terms of playing with computers. Actually until I was about 11 I didn’t use a computer for preparing for games at all. I was playing a bit online, was using the chess club mainly. Now, obviously, the computer is an important tool for me preparing for my games.
187
Until ‘Moonlight,’ I had never seen one black man cook for another on screen. But I wanted the characters to be free of ‘groundbreaking’ or ‘never before.’ We were ascribed those things. They weren’t the point.
188
You can read books on stuff all day long, but until you get out there and just do it, if you want to start playing, and you want to make some music, then go out and play. Go find yourself a venue and play, even if it’s in your home. Just play every day. You win the fight by fighting.
189
Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
190
Every time I dive, I feel an adrenaline rush like I did that first time. Until my body fails on me, I will keep going.
191
Don’t let nobody tell you that you can’t do it. Love what you do until you don’t love it anymore. Nothing’s impossible.
Fetty Wap
192
If you love someone who’s an addict and their use is life-threatening, you don’t wait until they hit bottom because that can mean that they’re going to die. You have to do everything you can to get them in treatment.
193
I never made a damn dime until I started doing what I wanted.
Carroll Shelby
194
When I wake up in the morning, I just can’t get started until I’ve had that first, piping hot pot of coffee. Oh, I’ve tried other enemas.
195
I always say, you never know how much your parents loved you until you have a child to love.
196
For a great many years, as a soldier, I had a suspicion that war was a racket; not until I retired to civil life did I fully realize it.
Smedley Butler
197
Every other guitar player was just copying other guitarists. From the time I was 13 up until 18, I practiced at least eight hours a day, every day. My health suffered for it – I was losing sleep and not eating properly.
198
I don’t think anyone should write their autobiography until after they’re dead.
199
Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
200
I will remain on the throne until I fall off.
Margrethe II of Denmark
201
I loved eating and I did put on weight. I never actually felt fat until I started going for castings, for auditions.
202
Japan‘s very interesting. Some people think it copies things. I don’t think that anymore. I think what they do is reinvent things. They will get something that’s already been invented and study it until they thoroughly understand it. In some cases, they understand it better than the original inventor.
203
‘Until Friday Night‘ is the first book in my new young adult series, ‘The Field Party.’
Abbi Glines
204
War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
205
I enjoy acting now more than I ever have. I’ve had lots of difficult times when I was younger, but that was all tied up with thwarted ambition. It’s hard being a young actor, because you don’t realise until later that it’s only ever about doing the work.
206
We never give up until the ref’s final whistle, we never give up we try to score one more to win the game – that’s what we do.
207
Any bull market covers a multitude of sins, so there may be all sorts of problems with the current system that we won’t see until the bear market comes.
208
Until we are all free, we are none of us free.
Emma Lazarus
209
Making words rhyme for a living is one of the great joys of my life… That’s a superpower I’ve been very conscious of developing. I started at the same level as everybody else, and then I just listened to more music and talked to myself until it was an actual superpower I could pull out on special occasions.
210
If I’m about to forget my kid’s birthday, I want the phone to scream at me until I do something about it.
211
If somebody does something Mr. Trump doesn’t like, I do everything in my power to resolve it to Mr. Trump’s benefit. If you do something wrong, I’m going to come at you, grab you by the neck and I’m not going to let go until I’m finished.
Michael Cohen
212
It’s never over. You don’t want to be in the position to be down four runs in the ninth inning, but it’s not over until the last out.
213
I had never seen an avocado until I came to London in 1994. They just weren’t a feature of southern Italian cuisine.
214
A college experience is something everyone should have. Going to Waffle House late at night. Or the gym at midnight, until the wee hours of the morning. Just being kids. Hanging out.
215
Every time I play darts I try to keep my poker face on and stay focused until that last dart has gone in.
216
Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell, no!
John Belushi
217
Find a way and make it happen: I’ve always been the type of person who couldn’t rest until I found a way to make something happen. If I couldn’t go around the rock, I’d find a way to go over it or under it or through it.
218
I will not leave South Africa, nor will I surrender. Only through hardship, sacrifice and militant action can freedom be won. The struggle is my life. I will continue fighting for freedom until the end of my days.
219
I grew up playing about 15 instruments and the way that I was able to accomplish that was by cutting my classes, hanging out in the band room all day, and going from one instrument to the next to the next, until I learned how to play everything by ear.
220
We had a lot of difficulty in getting the French to accept the pyramid. They thought we were trying to import a piece of Egypt until I pointed out that their obelisk was also from Egypt and the Place des Pyramides is around the corner. Then they accepted it. The pyramid at the Louvre, though, is just the tip.
221
The true way to be humble is not to stoop until you are smaller than yourself, but to stand at your real height against some higher nature that will show you what the real smallness of your greatness is.
222
Call no man happy until he is dead, but only lucky.
Solon
223
I didn’t make any money from my writing until much later. I published about 80 stories for nothing. I spent on literature.
224
Yes, it’s absolutely true that anything worth doing is worth doing poorly – until you can learn to do it well.
225
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.
226
How you think when you lose determines how long it will be until you win.
227
You’re never a loser until you quit trying.
228
I have never been able to read Agatha Christie – the pleasure is purely in the puzzle, and the reader is toyed with by someone who didn’t decide herself who the killer was until the end of the writing.
229
I put a lot of pressure on myself. I think something’s not good enough, and I won’t stop until I feel like I’ve made it. I’m never satisfied.
230
One does not meet oneself until one catches the reflection from an eye other than human.
Loren Eiseley
231
We shall never have more time. We have, and always had, all the time there is. No object is served in waiting until next week or even until tomorrow. Keep going… Concentrate on something useful.
Arnold Bennett
232
Our enemy is motivated by hatred and will not stop planning more plots against until they are ultimately defeated. Today was an important and necessary victory in the war, but there is a long road ahead. We must remain committed if we are to succeed and protect our liberty.
233
Bulgaria is fascinating. Because it had been a Communist country until the mid-80s, so it had just recently transitioned. And there were still the police towers on the street corners, where they look down – they were still there, although no one was in them.
234
When I feel like exercising I just lie down until the feeling goes away.
Robert M. Hutchins
235
Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.
Harper Lee
236
Really, I was such a late bloomer, I really didn’t learn how to be me until I was in my late ’40s, which is when I started playing roles that were closer to me.
237
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.
238
My father was a tailor. He worked from seven o’clock in the morning until seven at night. At least when he got home, my mother always cooked him a very good dinner. Lots of potatoes, I remember; he used to knock them down like a dose of salts. He needed it, after a 12-hour day.
239
At times, we take freedom for granted. We really don’t know how to cherish the freedom we have until it’s taken from us.
240
I’ve never had a job in my life that I was better than. I was always just lucky to have a job. And every job I had was a steppingstone to my next job, and I never quit my job until I had my next job.
241
A man can fail many times, but he isn’t a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.
242
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
243
The power of intuitive understanding will protect you from harm until the end of your days.
244
Mankind will not forever remain on Earth but, in the pursuit of light and space, will first timidly emerge from the bounds of the atmosphere and then advance until he has conquered the whole of circumsolar space.
Konstantin Tsiolkovsky
245
To be always intending to make a new and better life but never to find time to set about it is as to put off eating and drinking and sleeping from one day to the next until you’re dead.
246
Until the men of action clear out the talkers we who have social consciences are at the mercy of those who have none.
247
I’d like to help repair the earth‘s ecosystems, and to fully live until I’m fully dead.
248
Young boys must be taught to play football without leading with or lowering their heads. Young players must be drilled over and over and over with Heads Up Football skills until that skill set becomes muscle memory and second nature.
249
You have to keep on learning all the time unless and until you become perfect in all the strokes.
250
A story really isn’t truly a story until it reaches its climax and conclusion.
251
To love yourself right now, just as you are, is to give yourself heaven. Don’t wait until you die. If you wait, you die now. If you love, you live now.
Alan Cohen
252
Unless and until our society recognizes cyber bullying for what it is, the suffering of thousands of silent victims will continue.
Anna Maria Chavez
253
A lot of people like to do certain things, but they’re not that good at it. Keep going through the things that you like to do, until you find something that you actually seem to be extremely good at. It can be anything.
254
God cannot use you as He wishes until you come into the fullness of His Glory. Do not get alarmed, my friend, when doubts creep in. That is old Satan. Pray, pray, pray.
255
In this country, it doesn’t make any difference where you were born. It doesn’t make any difference who your parents were. It doesn’t make any difference if, like me, you couldn’t even speak English until you were in your twenties.
256
The way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up.
257
The truth is, no one of us can be free until everybody is free.
258
I really haven’t been cognitive of gas prices. It wasn’t until I filled up my husband’s Toyota Prius Hybrid that I had a moment of understanding of how people who drive gas cars feel.
Alexandra Paul
259
I have lived with passion and in a hurry, trying to accomplish too many things. I never had time to think about my beliefs until my 28-year-old daughter Paula fell ill. She was in a coma for a year, and I took care of her at home until she died in my arms in December of 1992.
260
A man will treat a woman almost exactly the way he treats his own interior feminine. In fact, he hasn’t the ability to see a woman, objectively speaking, until he has made some kind of peace with his interior woman.
Robert Johnson
261
We do want more, and when it becomes more, we shall still want more. And we shall never cease to demand more until we have received the results of our labor.
Samuel Gompers
262
In the process of evolution, the body lasts for some time and then will take other body and take other body and take other body until the final redemption from diversity is transcended.

You never know God is all you need until God is all you have.
266
In this business, until you’re known as a monster you’re not a star.
267
Hurried and worried until we’re buried, and there’s no curtain call, Lifes a very funny proposition after all.
George M. Cohan
268
Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.
269
There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
270
When I was 8 years old I became a mute and was a mute until I was 13, and I thought of my whole body as an ear, so I can go into a crowd and sit still and absorb all sound. That talent or ability has lasted and served me until today.
271
When you lose a parent, you realize how vital they are to the foundation of your life. It’s impossible to understand what it means until that curtain is pulled. You’re an orphan. But then I think that life is kind of remarkable, and the thing that causes the biggest pain can also bring amazing energy.
272
War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebrums and smaller adrenal glands.
273
Egoic consciousness is the one we all normally operate with, until we are told there is something else! Every culture teaches egoic consciousness in different ways. At that level it is all about me, my preferences, my choices, my needs, my desires and me and my group as the central reference point.
274
Don’t wait until you’re in a crisis to come up with a crisis plan.
275
The way to do fieldwork is never to come up for air until it is all over.
276
Teenagers did not have, before rock ‘n’ roll and rhythm-and-blues – they did not have any type of music they could call their own once they got over 4 or 5 years old until they were well into their 20’s and considered adults.
Sam Phillips
277
Women are like teabags. We don’t know our true strength until we are in hot water!
278
At the end of the day, we get to be parents, greeting our lovely, crazy children and talking about their day, making sure they brush their teeth, so all the tension from our day is tabled… until the next.
279
Our deeds disguise us. People need endless time to try on their deeds, until each knows the proper deeds for him to do. But every day, every hour, rushes by. There is no time.
280
The good we secure for ourselves is precarious and uncertain until it is secured for all of us and incorporated into our common life.
Jane Addams
281
We’ll never solve the feminization of power until we solve the masculinity of wealth.
282
As I read more and more – and it was not all verse, by any means – my love for the real life of words increased until I knew that I must live with them and in them, always. I knew, in fact, that I must be a writer of words, and nothing else.
Dylan Thomas
283
Fixing a broken immigration system. Protecting our kids from gun violence. Equal pay for equal work, paid leave, raising the minimum wage. All these things still matter to hardworking families; they are still the right thing to do; and I will not let up until they get done.
284
All things are possible until they are proved impossible – and even the impossible may only be so, as of now.
285
You can’t be truly rude until you understand good manners.
286
The catalogue of forms is endless: until every shape has found its city, new cities will continue to be born. When the forms exhaust their variety and come apart, the end of cities begins.
287
Love is not love until love’s vulnerable.
Theodore Roethke
288
I never write a book unless I can’t help it. Something has to bother me, like a mosquito, until I have to do something to relieve the itch.
289
One advantage of marriage is that, when you fall out of love with him or he falls out of love with you, it keeps you together until you fall in again.
290
I say that democracy can never prove itself beyond cavil, until it founds and luxuriantly grows its own forms of art, poems, schools, theology, displacing all that exists, or that has been produced anywhere in the past, under opposite influences.
291
There are uses to adversity, and they don’t reveal themselves until tested. Whether it’s serious illness, financial hardship, or the simple constraint of parents who speak limited English, difficulty can tap unexpected strengths.
292
I’ll fight like a wildcat until they nail the lid of my pine box down on me.
Eddie Rickenbacker
293
I was only 5’10” until I was a senior in high school.
294
Where I come from, all of us wanted to be footballers. We played all the time; that’s all we did at school or wherever until it went dark and you couldn’t see the ball.
295
You don’t appreciate life until you get to the other side. Like lying in a hospital bed.
Fabrice Muamba
296
An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.
Bill Vaughan
297
You aren’t wealthy until you have something money can’t buy.
298
Face it, I didn’t become famous until I took my clothes off.
299
You don’t understand anything until you learn it more than one way.
300
War should never be entered upon until every agency of peace has failed.
William McKinley
301
I acted all the way up until Princeton. It was just one of my favorite extracurricular activities. Then I got to Princeton and had a really conservative vibe. All my friends were planning on law school, med school, or Wall Street, and suddenly acting seem like a really risky proposition.
302
A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings.
303
The learning process continues until the day you die.
304
No one knows what he can do until he tries.
305
Most of the memorable events I have myself been exercised in; and, for the satisfaction of the public, will briefly relate the circumstances of my adventures, and scenes of life, from my first movement to this country until this day.
Daniel Boone
306
We are immortal until our work on earth is done.
307
Music is forever; music should grow and mature with you, following you right on up until you die.
308
I didn’t start playing football a lot until I was in high school. I played it in seventh and eighth grade, but I didn’t play Pop Warner or anything.
309
It would be wrong to assume that one must stay with a research programme until it has exhausted all its heuristic power, that one must not introduce a rival programme before everybody agrees that the point of degeneration has probably been reached.
Imre Lakatos
310
It wasn’t until I went to college and I got my first motorcycle that I understood the thrill of speed.
311
I’ve never been big on cars. When I first got to Hollywood, I bought a used car from Avis. I drove that until I almost had to pay someone to tow it away.
312
When I listen to my favorite songwriters, they have such simple melodies and chords. I occasionally manage to stop at the right time, but all too often I keep on going until I have way too many notes and words. But that’s just what I do.
313
You’re not a loser in anything until you quit. Don’t quit.
314
I am absolutely opposed to political correctness. You cannot confront hate speech until you’ve experienced it. You need to hear every side of the issue instead of just one.
Jane Elliott
315
Push yourself again and again. Don’t give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.
316
Nobody will tell you that you’re typecast until your films aren’t working; if it’s working, they’ll call it your ‘zone.’
317
I’ll give up smoking when I die, and I’ll settle down when I die. Until then, I’m gonna have a good time.
318
Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.
319
You will be a failure, until you impress the subconscious with the conviction you are a success. This is done by making an affirmation which ‘clicks.’
Florence Scovel Shinn
320
I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.
321
Everything seems really simple on paper until you take a camera out of the box.
322
If you are successful, it is because somewhere, sometime, someone gave you a life or an idea that started you in the right direction. Remember also that you are indebted to life until you help some less fortunate person, just as you were helped.
323
Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.
324
At one time in my life, from the time I was seven until I was about 13, I didn’t speak. I only spoke to my brother. The reason I didn’t speak: I had been molested, and I told the name of the molester to my brother who told it to the family.
325
No man can be ideally successful until he has found his place. Like a locomotive he is strong on the track, but weak anywhere else.
326
Painting was always something I thought I’d do once I retired. But then, about five or six years ago, a good mate passed away suddenly at the age of 50 and it made me realise that if I put off doing stuff until I retire, I might not ever get there.
327
Until you’re ready to look foolish, you’ll never have the possibility of being great.
328
Writing is a journey of discovery because until you start, you never know what will happen, and you can be surprised by what you do – expect the unexpected!
Mini Grey
329
If a policy is wrongheaded, feckless and corrupt, I take it personally and consider it a moral obligation to sound off and not shut up until it’s fixed.
David Hackworth
330
Time and health are two precious assets that we don’t recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.

There are many truths of which the full meaning cannot be realized until personal experience has brought it home.
332

Kim Wilde
334
No enterprise is more likely to succeed than one concealed from the enemy until it is ripe for execution.
335
Never stop fighting until you arrive at your destined place – that is, the unique you. Have an aim in life, continuously acquire knowledge, work hard, and have perseverance to realise the great life.
336
The game is not lost – or won – until the last bell goes.
John Curtin
337
You have to believe in yourself, challenge yourself, and push yourself until the very end; that’s the only way you’ll succeed.
338
Until you have learned to be tolerant with those who do not always agree with you, you will be neither successful nor happy.
339
Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most conspicuous and sacred responsibility, all talks of the sovereignty of Parliament and of democracy is idle and futile.
340
I want to play football until my body says, ‘You can’t run anymore: you’re dead.’
341
I’d never read ‘Lord of the Rings’ until I was asked to play Gandalf, so I didn’t really know it was a frightfully famous book.
342
It always seems impossible until it’s done.
343
I didn’t start playing drums until I was 12, for school band; they didn’t have any saxophones left. My step-pops had a kit at the house, and I had never done anything that I understood so quick. It was so natural. It was the most fun and consistent thing in my life.
344
I know no national boundary where the Negro is concerned. The whole world is my province until Africa is free.
345
I talk in subjects and verbs, and sort of wind around in concentric circles until I get far enough away from the beginning so that I can call it the end, and it ends.
346
You can write the best column in the world on Monday, and it does you absolutely no good on Tuesday. There is no way to win. You just write until you are tired, they fire you, or you die.
347
Be still with yourself until the object of your attention affirms your presence.
Minor White
348
I used to sit on the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue and wonder why the Senate was always going into recess, until in my first year I realized how intense the pressure was.
349
Wars will remain while human nature remains. I believe in my soul in cooperation, in arbitration; but the soldier’s occupation we cannot say is gone until human nature is gone.
350
I don’t have my novel outlined, and I have to write to discover what I am doing. Like the old lady, I don’t know so well what I think until I see what I say; then I have to say it over again.
Flannery O’Connor
351
You’ll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.
352
Everything seems fine until you’re about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking, ‘While I accept that everyone grows old and dies, it’s a funny thing, but I’m an exception to that rule.’
353
Movement Conservatism was a fringe force from the 1950s until the 1980s, when voters elected Movement Conservative Ronald Reagan to the White House. But even then, their control of the Republican Party was not a given.
354
When you’re doing a movie, your body doesn’t allow you to get sick until you finish.
355
The story of Detroit‘s bankruptcy was simple enough: Allow capitalism to grow the city, campaign against income inequality, tax the job creators until they flee, increase government spending in order to boost employment, promise generous pension plans to keep people voting for failure. Rinse, wash and repeat.
356
Boxing should probably be banned. But until then, I’m a big fan.
Sam Simon

I wasn’t a big Air Force 1 person until I started buying custom ones.
Loren Gray
358
It is even better to act quickly and err than to hesitate until the time of action is past.
Carl von Clausewitz
359
I always have a beard between jobs. I just let it grow until they pay me to shave it. People are quite surprised it’s ginger. Sometimes they ask me if dye my hair and I always say ‘Wow, no!’ I’m ‘trans-ginger.’
360
Until Eve arrived, this was a man’s world.
Richard Armour
361
I never had a hobby in my whole life until I wag 35. Then I discovered motorcycles, and they’ve now become almost a passion.
362
I wake up at 5am, by 6am I’m on the way to training. I come back and relax, have lunch, take a little nap, then train again at 4pm for an evening run. Then relax, dinner and bed at 9pm until the next day.
363
You never really know a man until you have divorced him.
364
It’s not wise to violate rules until you know how to observe them.
365
I never liked horror up until I was like 10 years old.
366
Until we have a better relationship between private performance and the public truth, as was demonstrated with Watergate, we as the public are absolutely right to remain suspicious, contemptuous even, of the secrecy and the misinformation which is the digest of our news.
367
When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.
Alan Paton
368

370
We cannot learn from one another until we stop shouting at one another – until we speak quietly enough so that our words can be heard as well as our voices.
371
A cardinal principle of Total Quality escapes too many managers: you cannot continuously improve interdependent systems and processes until you progressively perfect interdependent, interpersonal relationships.
372
A woman is like a tea bag – you can’t tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.
373
No woman can call herself free who does not own and control her body. No woman can call herself free until she can choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother.
Margaret Sanger
374
Time and health are two precious assets that we don’t recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.
375
Censorship no longer works by hiding information from you; censorship works by flooding you with immense amounts of misinformation, of irrelevant information, of funny cat videos, until you’re just unable to focus.
376
We’re not going to have the America that we want until we elect leaders who are going to tell the truth – not most days, but every day.
377
Racial bias does exist, and until we can all admit its existence and become introspective as to whether our own personal biases are impacting how we deal with others, there will be no change.
Sunny Hostin
378
Never believe anything in politics until it has been officially denied.
Otto von Bismarck
379
Opening day. All you have to do is say the words and you feel the shutters thrown wide, the room air out, the light pour in. In baseball, no other day is so pure with possibility. No scores yet, no losses, no blame or disappointment. No hangover, at least until the game’s over.
380
Being hip, being popular, being cool, that’s really easy. Until you have to make tough decisions. And when you have to make tough decisions, that veneer of coolness comes off real quick.
381
Science is not finished until it is communicated.
382
Abortion is wrong. I think everyone knows that, which is why abortion activists are so angry all the time. It’s a bit like when you catch someone out in a lie, and they get really mad at you really quickly, and you can’t work out why until later. It’s guilt.
383
As a kid, I thought of myself as stupid because I needed remedial help. It was not until much later that I figured out that I was dyslexic and that my trouble with spelling and sounding out words did not mean I was stupid, but early impressions stuck with me and colored my world for a time.
Carol W. Greider
384
I didn’t play a great deal of sport in primary school. It was not until I went away to boarding school in Sussex that I really got into sport.
385
Proverbs are always platitudes until you have personally experienced the truth of them.
386
If there’s a goal, you can’t stop me. I’ll put my head down. I’ll have tunnel vision and I’ll go until I get it.
387
Try to forget what objects you have before you – a tree, a house, a field, or whatever. Merely think, ‘Here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow,’ and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact color and shape, until it gives you your own impression of the scene before you.
388
A man doesn’t know what happiness is until he’s married. By then, it’s too late.
389
I had to leave, and my husband was forced to stay on this plantation until after the harvest season was over. And then the man that we had worked for, he’d taken the car, and the most of the few things we had had been stolen.
390
There’s not an American in this country free until every one of us is free.
391
And God said, ‘Let there be light’ and there was light, but the Electricity Board said He would have to wait until Thursday to be connected.
392
Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.
393
You can’t judge a book by its cover until you open up and read it. There are going be a million stories out there, true or not true. I say get to know me first before you judge me.
394
I like people who refuse to speak until they are ready to speak.
Lillian Hellman
395
My father – until the day that my dad died – didn’t know how many points you scored in a touchdown. He could say there were nine innings in baseball, but no intricacies of the sport.
396
We can’t destroy the inequities between men and women until we destroy marriage.
Robin Morgan
397
I wore black until I was twenty-five, like many young people. Everybody did. It was crazy! But now, getting older, I think color does me good.
Agnes Varda
398
I will fight for America until the day I drop.
399
Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one’s will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them.
Paul Gauguin
400
I do the very best I know how – the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.
401
When I arrived, Madrid taught me to fight until the end. You win the finals. I’ve learned a lot with Real Madrid about this.
402
Build up your weaknesses until they become your strong points.
Knute Rockne
403
State and local government, with financial support from the federal government, should offer a program to educate and train foster children for employment and provide them with financial assistance, as needed, until they reach age 21.
404
It isn’t until you come to a spiritual understanding of who you are – not necessarily a religious feeling, but deep down, the spirit within – that you can begin to take control.
405
I’d never been in a police state. I didn’t know what it was. I knew that it was, in the general way that people know that two and two is four, but it had no emotional value for me until I found myself in the middle of it.
406
We have to consciously study how to be tender with each other until it becomes a habit because what was native has been stolen from us, the love of Black women for each other.
407
Development in this county is always going to be an issue. Until development and zoning are handled on a regional basis, rather than each municipality left to its own devices, we will suffer from developers having the upper hand in suits and in front of zoning boards.
John Murray
408
Anyone can dream up great ideas, but an idea is nothing until it’s realized, be it as a website, a physical product, an app, or a user interface.
409
My greatest point is my persistence. I never give up in a match. However down I am, I fight until the last ball. My list of matches shows that I have turned a great many so-called irretrievable defeats into victories.
410
Procrastination is like a credit card: it’s a lot of fun until you get the bill.
Christopher Parker
411
They call it the rope-a-dope. Well, I’m the dope. Ali just laid on the rope and I, like a dope, kept punching until I got tired. But he was probably the most smart fighter I’ve ever gotten into the ring with.
412
You have this fairy tale of ‘life on your own.’ It’s so awesome. Until the apartment floods, or something happens, and your go-to people aren’t there.
413
I have been connected with the Niels Bohr Institute since the completion of my university studies, first as a research fellow and, from 1956, as a professor of physics at the University of Copenhagen. After the death of my father in 1962, I followed him as director of the Institute until 1970.
Aage Bohr
414
I want to wait to have sex until I’m married.
415
I used to work until two in the morning every night, then still get up at six. Now, I have to help my daughter with her homework, spend time with my wife.
416
Every successful person I have heard of has done the best he could with the conditions as he found them, and not waited until next year for better.
417
We cannot change the political system, we cannot change the economic system, we cannot change the social system, until the people control the land, and then we take it out of the hands of that sick minority that chooses to pervert the meaning and the intention of humanity.
418
I was married awfully young and I felt trapped. My wife had been divorced and all the time we were married we were out of the Church. It wasn’t until we were divorced that we became good Catholics again.
Don Adams
419
A man’s mind will very gradually refuse to make itself up until it is driven and compelled by emergency.
420
Palestine is the issue, and until this issue is resolved, there can be no peace.
421
I shall ask for the abolition for the punishment of death until I have the infallibility of human judgment demonstrated to me.
422
Sometimes the times were dark and the outlook was lonesome, but where there is a will, there is a way. I pitched in and dug at my work until now I am where I am.
Edmonia Lewis
423
When the ideas are coming, I don’t stop until the ideas stop because that train doesn’t come along all the time.
424
A man is not complete until he has seen the baby he has made.
425
Never insult an alligator until after you have crossed the river.
Cordell Hull
426
You can’t put your feet on the ground until you’ve touched the sky.
427
Uncertainty is the worst of all evils until the moment when reality makes us regret uncertainty.
Alphonse Karr
428
I did a lot of things that I regretted and I certainly paid for my mistakes. You have to go and ask for forgiveness and it wasn’t until I really started doing good and doing right, by other people as well as myself, that I really started to feel that guilt go away. So I don’t have a problem going to sleep at night.
429
If you’re competitor-focused, you have to wait until there is a competitor doing something. Being customer-focused allows you to be more pioneering.
430
A man of action forced into a state of thought is unhappy until he can get out of it.
John Galsworthy
431
Abortion is not a right. It is a violent act against the defenseless. It violates every principle of morality and should be barred by American law. Until that day, I fully support bans on partial-birth abortion, third-trimester abortion, and indeed every limit that can receive public support.
432
Nobody’s free until everybody’s free.
433
Rest until you feel like playing, then play until you feel like resting, period. Never do anything else.
434
Man is a strange animal. He generally cannot read the handwriting on the wall until his back is up against it.
435
Persistent in life? I think, yes, I am. I’m going to do something until I get it right.
436
I was the ugly duckling until I reached puberty.
Tanya Roberts
437
I didn’t know I was a slave until I found out I couldn’t do the things I wanted.
438
You can’t have a physical transformation until you have a spiritual transformation.
439
In my case Pilgrim‘s Progress consisted in my having to climb down a thousand ladders until I could reach out my hand to the little clod of earth that I am.
440
America’s real business leaders understand unless or until the middle class regains its footing and its faith, capitalism remains vulnerable.
441
I don’t take nothin‘ from no one. I do what I wanna do. And I’m gonna do that until the day I die. And if I can’t do that, then I’ll just die.
442
I’ve found cinnamon to be very effective for lowering the glycemic response to meals. People have heard that before, but I didn’t realize how profound it could be until I did the actual testing with continuous glucose monitors. And I tested all different varieties and species of cinnamon from Ceylon to Saigon.
443
I do the very best I know how – the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.
444
A girl must marry for love – and keep on marrying until she finds it.
445
Vices are usually pleasurable, at least for the time being, and often do not disclose themselves as vices, by their effects, until after they have been practised for many years; perhaps for a lifetime.
446
These wretched babies don’t come until they are ready.
447
Everyone knows what a curve is, until he has studied enough mathematics to become confused through the countless number of possible exceptions.
Felix Klein
448
I don’t have writer’s block, really. I do have times when I can’t get the lead, and that is the only part of the story which I have serious trouble with. I don’t write a word of the article until I have the lead. It just sets the whole tone – the whole point of view.
449
Why do you hasten to remove anything which hurts your eye, while if something affects your soul you postpone the cure until next year?
450
Remember the phrase – ‘Act your age, not your shoe size?’ That didn’t apply to me, as they were the same until the age of 12 when my feet stopped growing.
451
With each step I take, I see that my ability to perform gets a little better. So until it starts getting worse, I’m going to keep moving forward.
452
I grew up in a very large family in a very small house. I never slept alone until after I was married.
453
You just keep moving forward and doing what you do and hope that it resonates with people. And if it doesn’t, you just keep moving on until you find a project that does.
454
Until you have formed the habit of looking for the good instead of the bad there is in others, you will be neither successful nor happy.
455
Sin penetrates to the heart, darkens and hardens it until it extinguishes the light of belief. Each sin has a path that leads to unbelief. Unless that sin is swiftly obliterated by seeking God’s forgiveness, it grows from a worm into a snake that gnaws at the heart.
456
You can’t really be strong until you see a funny side to things.
457
We need to treat the planet as a system, and up until now, we’ve operated more as if the world were made of separate parts – this part is environment, this part is economy. But everything is connected. You can’t fix global warming with a Ph.D. in thermodynamics!
458
When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike, you do not wait until he has struck to crush him.
459
I am amazed; until the day I die I shall wonder how Whittaker Chambers got into my house to use my typewriter.
Alger Hiss
460
I have always felt that a woman has the right to treat the subject of her age with ambiguity until, perhaps, she passes into the realm of over ninety. Then it is better she be candid with herself and with the world.
461
Of all religions, the Christian should of course inspire the most tolerance, but until now Christians have been the most intolerant of all men.
462
I was drawing before I did music, but me, I’m a dilettante. I jump into everything until I find one thing that I enjoy more than others. Rap was something that was always there because my brother used to rappiano and musical instruments is something I learnt on the way.
463
Over 90% of people go home at the end of the day feeling unfulfilled by their work, and I won’t stop working until that statistic is reversed – until over 90% of people go home and can honestly say, ‘I love what I do.’
464
Dogs are wise. They crawl away into a quiet corner and lick their wounds and do not rejoin the world until they are whole once more.
465
Before I went to jail, I was active in politics as a member of South Africa’s leading organization – and I was generally busy from 7 A.M. until midnight. I never had time to sit and think.
466
Good leaders must communicate vision clearly, creatively, and continually. However, the vision doesn’t come alive until the leader models it.
467
I like to think of ideas as potential energy. They’re really wonderful, but nothing will happen until we risk putting them into action.
468
Until the contract is signed, nothing is real.
469
I’ve always been that person: If it gets into my head, I’ve got to do it until I get it perfect – a perfectionist‘s attitude.
470
Hollywood never knew there was a Vietnam War until they made the movie.
Jerry Stiller
471
My philosophy is my learning process. Until you die, you must evolve and improve.
Miyavi
472
You never know how a horse will pull until you hook him to a heavy load.
473
If you live a life of make-believe, your life isn’t worth anything until you do something that does challenge your reality. And to me, sailing the open ocean is a real challenge, because it’s life or death.
474
I tell a student that the most important class you can take is technique. A great chef is first a great technician. ‘If you are a jeweler, or a surgeon or a cook, you have to know the trade in your hand. You have to learn the process. You learn it through endless repetition until it belongs to you.
475
If you’re early on in your career and they give you a choice between a great mentor or higher pay, take the mentor every time. It’s not even close. And don’t even think about leaving that mentor until your learning curve peaks.
476
Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.
477
I grew up in Perugia, Umbria, in a world outside of fashion, so I didn’t learn about it until I was older and moved away. In Milan, the women are really into fashion, and all the big fashion brands are based there, but I don’t think they feel pressure to look good all the time.
478
The voice of the intellect is a soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing.
479
Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.
480
It’s true what they say: ‘You don’t appreciate what you’ve got until it’s gone.’ I miss love. I miss being looked after.
481
Strong I am one of those who never knows the direction of my journey until I have almost arrived.
Anna Louise Strong
482
It is not until you become a mother that your judgment slowly turns to compassion and understanding.
483
It’s about enjoying what you do, and that’s what I try to tell everybody, ‘Hey. When we wake up tomorrow, let’s go hard again and let’s try to do better.’ That’s all we can do, and that has been me all these years. I’ll keep doing that until I retire.
484
An error doesn’t become a mistake until you refuse to correct it.
Orlando Aloysius Battista
485
With health care, despite the fact that we as a nation have already chosen to provide health care in one form or another to everyone, we have, until Obamacare, chosen to pick the least cost-effective means, a mix of private and public offerings, of providing that care. That makes no sense.
486
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.
487
And then, as the years went on, I just kept moving along, busting into doors and getting roles, until I started to actually believe that what these other people were saying was true.
488
The Jews did not go into darkness all at once. It was a gradual work, until they could not discern the gift of God in sending his Son.
489
I was at MSNBC; I was constantly saying to them during Bridgegate, ‘You’ve convicted Governor Christie without one iota of fact attaching him to the decision to stall the traffic on the bridge. Why don’t we wait until the federal government or the state government… completes its investigation.’
490
I feel sorry for kids these days. They get so much homework. Remember the days when we put a belt around our two books and carried them home? Now they’re dragging a suitcase. They have school all day, then homework from six until eleven. There’s no time left to be creative.
491
Roast potatoes – I can’t say no. At Christmas, I reach over for the fifth or sixth one, and I think I could keep going until I explode.
492
I prayed for twenty years but received no answer until I prayed with my legs.
493
I never got into sports at all until I was in my early 20s, after my music career got going.
Neal Schon
494
I will never give in to old age until I become old. And I’m not old yet!
495
Until you have cultivated the habit of saying some kind word of those whom you do not admire, you will be neither successful nor happy.
496
I don’t have a problem with anybody. Until I get on the court.
497
You can’t get a job without experience and you can’t get experience until you have a job. Once you solve that problem you are home free.
Jack Buck
498
I am ready to sacrifice everything in completing the unfinished agenda of our noble jihad… until there is no bloodshed in Afghanistan and Islam becomes a way of life for our people.
Mohammed Omar
499
You can’t have an industrial revolution, you can’t have democracies, you can’t have populations who can govern themselves until you have literacy. The printing press simply unlocked literacy.
500
Soldiers, when committed to a task, can’t compromise. It’s unrelenting devotion to the standards of duty and courage, absolute loyalty to others, not letting the task go until it’s been done.
John Keegan
