The only two things you can truly depend upon are gravity and greed.

The only type of music I don't like is Dixieland jazz. It's just a little too happy and noisy for me. I like intervals and spaces in my music. There's just something about Dixieland.

‐‐ Ian Smith
The only virtue a character needs to possess between hardcovers, even if he bears a real person's name, is vitality: if he comes to life in our imaginations, he passes the test.
‐‐ Stephen Vizinczey
The only warning I'd give is - make sure you are strong enough and committed enough in your business pursuits. It is commitment and belief, not just the bottom line, that should drive you.
‐‐ Roustam Tariko
The only way a ventriloquist speaks differently is that he forgoes using his or her lips, and learns to reproduce sounds using the tongue, upper palate, and teeth only. Those 'difficult' letters are B, F, M, P, V, W, and Y.
‐‐ Jeff Dunham
The only way all people can have the opportunity to choose or reject the gospel of Jesus Christ is for us, without judgment, to invite them to follow the Savior.
‐‐ Clayton M. Christensen
The only way an Iraqi biological agent would kill you is if it landed on your head.
‐‐ Scott Ritter

‐‐ Barry Diller
The only way back toward a democracy and economy that work for the majority is for most of us to get politically active once again, becoming organized and mobilized.
‐‐ Robert Reich
The only way change will ever happen is if we speak up, and we have to know that it actually has an impact. Because we have a lot more power than we think we do, I think.
‐‐ Josh Brolin
The only way Democrats can govern in this country is by making common cause with moderates and independents.
‐‐ Evan Bayh
The only way for me to be an artist is to be honest in my craft. If I veer from that, I'm not giving the investors what they want. Sometimes it's my job as an artist to know what I want to do, even when the fans tell me different.
‐‐ Talib Kweli
The only way for something human to feel human is to convince others that it is.

‐‐ Emmanuel Macron
The only way human beings can win a war is to prevent it.
‐‐ George C. Marshall

‐‐ Lacey Chabert
The only way I can feel comfortable being an actor is if I can find stories that I believe are important to be shared.
‐‐ Brie Larson
The only way I can lose is if I'm caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy.
‐‐ Edwin Edwards
The only way I could get comfortable around people was to make them laugh. I was an obedient girl, and humor was my one form of rebellion. I used comedy to deflect. Like, 'Hey, check out my zit!' - you know, making fun of yourself before someone else has a chance to.
‐‐ Tina Fey
The only way I could relax was when I was with my children.
‐‐ Andrew Wiles
The only way I'd be caught without makeup is if my radio fell in the bathtub while I was taking a bath and electrocuted me and I was in between makeup at home. I hope my husband would slap a little lipstick on me before he took me to the morgue.
‐‐ Dolly Parton
The only way I'd have gone was if it would better my career, I would not have gone just for the money. The point was to go to a club that could win trophies.
‐‐ Teddy Sheringham
The only way I'd worry about the weather is if it snows on our side of the field and not theirs.
‐‐ Tommy Lasorda
The only way I get a leading role in a studio picture is if Ryan Gosling can't play it, which is clearly the case with 'Selma.' If this was a non-colour-specific character, it wouldn't be me. It just wouldn't.
‐‐ David Oyelowo
The only way I hear gossip is if it's big enough and loud enough for my friends to bring it up to me. Or if it's, like, a big untrue ordeal from my publicist - and she hates making that phone call!
‐‐ Taylor Swift
The only way I know how to deliver is to focus; some people can turn it on or off - I'd rather stay in character.
‐‐ Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje
The only way I know how to do something, as cheesy as it sounds, is to become that character, and it affects me in a not so healthy way.
‐‐ Thomas Gibson
The only way I'll ever run a marathon is if I'm involved in the administration.
‐‐ Sally Phillips
The only way I'm going to support my family is to tour. I love playing, don't get me wrong. That 90 minutes every night, that's free. We get paid to travel. But every night, I have to get myself locked in. There are a thousand people that don't want to be disappointed, because they have a lot of expectations.
‐‐ Sturgill Simpson
The only way I'm going to win a Gold Glove is with a can of spray paint.
‐‐ Reggie Jackson
The only way I'm interested in having a baby is the old-fashioned way.
‐‐ Bethenny Frankel
The only way I see the world now is through coming out of and growing up and living in Somalia. In the time of war, everyone was basically trying to live and manage the best they could. But you also had another period which was not a hard time at all - it was just a beautiful time. I lived in both eras.
‐‐ K'naan
The only way I survived at school was by doing impersonations of teachers and pupils. That led to me winning a talent competition when I was 16; the prize was three or four gigs in working men's clubs. I was just showing off: at the time, I thought that's what acting was.
‐‐ Douglas Hodge
The only way I was going to be funny was if I was myself, and either you liked it, or you didn't. Either you got on my train, or you didn't. Freeing myself of this idea that I had to fit a certain mold was when I was able to be my funniest.
‐‐ Aisha Tyler
The only way I was going to come back to the Disney Channel was if I was in a position of more power.
‐‐ Zendaya
The only way I would go back to hosting would be if it were something entirely new. It would prevent me from wanting to host a standard-fare kind of talk show.
‐‐ Garry Shandling
The only way into truth is through one's own annihilation; through dwelling a long time in a state of extreme and total humiliation.
‐‐ Simone Weil
The only way marriage can work is if a man respects the woman and she is a thinking woman and he wants to work on the marriage.
‐‐ Al Goldstein
The only way not to think about money is to have a great deal of it.
‐‐ Edith Wharton
The only way of catching a train I have ever discovered is to miss the train before.
