The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it.
‐‐ Roseanne Barr
The thing women must do to rise to power is to redefine their femininity. Once, power was considered a masculine attribute. In fact, power has no sex.
‐‐ Katharine Graham
The thing worse than rebellion is the thing that causes rebellion.
‐‐ Frederick Douglass
The thing you can't let go of is gravity. The reality of gravity in writing. If someone says something really mean in a sitcom, and the next wave isn't a reaction to the reality of that, you start losing relatability. In a lot of romantic comedies, they throw out the rules of life.
‐‐ Michael Patrick King
The thing you can't underestimate is the true fan's intimacy. So Lady Gaga or anybody's true fan, I don't think they're going anywhere. There are people who are into commitment. If they're connecting with an artist, I think they'll be there over the long course.
‐‐ Alanis Morissette
The thing you do is escape from them by immersing myself in the character you're playing.
‐‐ Pia Zadora
The thing you don't dream about as a kid is all the peripheral stuff that comes with success.
‐‐ Tiger Woods
The thing you have to be prepared for is that other people don't always dream your dream.
‐‐ Linda Ronstadt
The thing you have to understand is that there are only so many things you can do in a year. There are only so many days in a year. There is only so much time you can set aside for certain projects.
‐‐ Corey Feldman
The thing you must really do in television is bring yourself to everything you do - you can't try to be anybody else.
‐‐ Lauren Graham
The thing you notice here after America is how refreshingly ordinary people look because they haven't had their chin wrapped around the back of their ears.
‐‐ Ian Mckellen
The thing you realize as you get older is that parents don't know what the Hell they're doing and neither will you when you get to be a parent.
‐‐ Mark Hoppus
The thing you see in survivors is that they express feelings - I won't say some of the things they tell their doctors, when doctors tell them they're going to die in six months. Boy, do they let the doctor know how they feel about that statement.
‐‐ Bernie Siegel
The thing you've got to watch for is going broke when you're old. Look at all the people that go down and out at the finish. The man who built my country place is blind now and penniless. That's terrible!
‐‐ Pearl White
The things hardest to bear are sweetest to remember.
‐‐ Lucius Annaeus Seneca
The things I could have done had Hollywood been more open? I don't dwell on coulda-woulda-shoulda. Because, hey, I've had a great career.
‐‐ Pepe Serna
The things I do, I do from the heart and out of love and respect for our planet and all living things. And I draw my courage from my love for justice and truth, and I calm my fears by comforting those who are more scared than me. And I try to do my best to make the world a better place, one small action at a time, as good as I can.
‐‐ Q'orianka Kilcher
The things I enjoy most as I watch the movie are the things that came through without even thinking.
‐‐ Beau Bridges
The things I keep going back to, rereading, maybe they say more about me as a reader than about the books. Love in the Time of Cholera, Pale Fire.
‐‐ Michael Chabon
The things I learned from the army - and I think it was a lesson for life - was how to work in unison with other people. How to take responsibility.
‐‐ Oded Fehr
The things I'm guided to do are really strange to me.
‐‐ Billy Corgan
The things I really learned, I learned from watching my parents. They take care of business. Always have.
‐‐ Kevin Eubanks
The things I see now on TV and in movies are so outlandish. Kids doing rude things with pies! And the language that they use! It's being outrageous for the sake of being outrageous. I can't watch it. It turns me off.
‐‐ Sid Caesar
The things I talk about and explain couldn't happen - yet, they don't seem impossible - you could say I talk about the world in an abstract perspective. But then, the world is basically insane - and it's trying to pass itself off as being a sane place. I show it for what it is.
‐‐ Steven Wright
The things I want to know are in books; my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read.
‐‐ Abraham Lincoln
The things I want to make into a film, they're personal, esoteric things, and I don't expect anyone else to like them as much as I do. I generally like my films more than anybody else will.
‐‐ Terry Zwigoff
The things I wanted to be when I was a kid were an archeologist, because of dinosaur bones; a garbage man, because they got to ride on the side of the trucks; and a writer.
‐‐ Nick Tosches
The things I wanted to do from a very early age - ie. get married and have children - precluded a lot of guys my own age from wanting to have anything to do with me.
‐‐ Talulah Riley
The things I was allowed to experience, the people I was able to call friends, teammates, mentors, coaches and opponents, the travel, all of it, are far more than anything I ever thought possible in my lifetime.
‐‐ Curt Schilling
The things I write about are completely removed from my own life, but people want to know the characters better.
‐‐ Ruth Rendell
The things I write about are the things that I am passionate about, interested in, and fighting for in my life.
‐‐ Kristin Armstrong
The things I write are combinations of all of the people that have been influences to me.
‐‐ Gerry Beckley
The things I write are for those who are willing to accept a new relationship between the reader and the author.
‐‐ Jerzy Kosinski
The things in my songs are the edited highlights of my life. I don't go seeking out strange sexual experiences every day of the week.
‐‐ Jarvis Cocker
The things journalists should pay attention to are the issues the political leadership agrees on, rather than to their supposed antagonisms.
‐‐ Michael Pollan
The things kids can do on screens can be really delightful - if they are age appropriate. But no, they shouldn't spend all their time on a screen; they should split up their time doing multiple, different things.
‐‐ Clive Thompson
The things most people want to know about are usually none of their business.
‐‐ George Bernard Shaw
The things of Catholic life are never boring because we have such a rich tradition and so many stories to tell.
‐‐ Donald Wuerl
The things shamans deal with are extremely practical. They break down parameters of normal historical reality. Magical passes are just one aspect of that.
‐‐ Carlos Castaneda
The things that are correct for me will come to me at the time that I am interested in them and have the capacity, the understanding, to do them.
‐‐ Julia Roberts
The things that are going to actually help you or me stay healthy are not necessarily the things that happen inside a doctor's office. They're the things that allow us to choose healthy lifestyles on a day-by-day basis.
‐‐ Risa Lavizzo-Mourey
The things that are happening to me are unbelievable. I'm actually busier right now than when I played football. This is almost like I'm coming back out of retirement. It will be fun to see myself in the game.
‐‐ Jerry Rice
The things that are really important to me are my man, my animals and my books. I don't need anything else.
‐‐ Mary Crosby
The things that block a writer are not the lack of words, but the same things that block all people - the difficulties of life.
‐‐ Max Apple
The things that churned inside Daredevil were deeply religious, somewhat guilt-driven traces of the messianic, with his powers being a compensation for and driven by the vulnerability of being blind. Green Arrow is not driven by dark forces.
‐‐ Ann Nocenti
The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those that got there first.
‐‐ Steven Tyler
The things that concern us during the day are going to influence what we experience during the night.
‐‐ Henry Reed
The things that converge in the writing of a play come from a complex of motives, a genesis shrouded in a certain kind of mystery.
‐‐ Athol Fugard
The things that drive me are poverty, and pain, and knowing that I don't want to end up being alone and I want to do something with my life and I want the name Dobson to remain in everyone's heads. Basically, just to rock and be the best performer I can be, and be true, and be real, and give people the real Fefe, nothing fake, all real.
‐‐ Fefe Dobson
The things that drive me crazy are coming from this place of people suffering because of people polluting into rivers or whatever. It's not simply just about systems; it's an emotional reaction to seeing animals or people suffering.
