There's a belief in some cultures that if a person experiences good fortune in financial terms and does not share the good fortune, when that person becomes ill with a mysterious fever and dies, people tend to say: 'Aha! It was because he didn't share. It was the spirits who brought him down.'

There's a belief that since Africa got a raw deal from the colonial West, then the Chinese must be Africa's best friend. But the evidence doesn't show that, and the main criticism is that they are building infrastructure in exchange for Africa's resources in deals that are structured to favor China.

There's a belief that you're supposed to be poor, and suffering, and show your humility. I just don't see the Bible that way. I see that God came and Jesus died so that we might live an abundant life and be a blessing to others.
‐‐ Joel Osteen
There's a belonging problem in Hollywood. Who dictates who belongs? The very body who dictates that looks all one way.
‐‐ Ava DuVernay
There's a Biblical mandate to reach out to those who are the orphans, the widows in their distress, to take care of the stranger in your land. But that does not mean citizenship.
‐‐ James Lankford
There's a big debate whether pentathlon or heptathlon is harder: five events in one day or seven in two.
‐‐ Katarina Johnson-Thompson
There's a big difference, as I'm sure you know, it's a slightly manneristic one, between people of the '60s and people of '68. Being a soixante-huitard - it's so nice to have a French word for it - is very different from just having happened to been a baby boomer in the '60s.
‐‐ Christopher Hitchens
There's a big difference between being privileged and being spoilt. My parents always said, 'Spoilt means ruined, and you're not ruined, just incredibly fortunate.'
‐‐ Tamara Ecclestone
There's a big difference between charity and between activism and philanthropy. They're very different things and I think, you know, everybody should find a passion or a cause that they can really get behind, but it has to be organic.
‐‐ Eva Longoria
There's a big difference between decorators and designers and the training is very different.
‐‐ Genevieve Gorder
There's a big difference between doing the odd gig and actually having a record out and your name being on the ticket.
‐‐ Stevie Jackson
There's a big difference between falling in love and being in love. There's a big difference between infatuation and falling in love.
‐‐ Phil McGraw
There's a big difference between falling in love with someone and falling in love with someone and getting married. Usually, after you get married, you fall in love with the person even more.
‐‐ Dave Grohl
There's a big difference between France and the U.S. In the U.S., immigrants must work to live. In France, they're taken care of by public finances. In France, there are millions of unemployed people already. We cannot house them, give them health care, education... finance people who keep coming and coming.
‐‐ Marine Le Pen
There's a big difference between industrializing production of tractors and industrializing production of food. We like technology, but we really like technology that allows us to do better what nature does itself.
‐‐ Joel Salatin
There's a big difference between me and a real, legitimate working hand, or a world-champion rodeo cowboy. I play 'em, and I aspire to be like that, but those guys are tough.
‐‐ Luke Perry
There's a big difference between me and other YouTubers - a lot of them have big, concrete plans. I'm still this weird chicken with my head cut off. I don't know what I want to do next and haven't known that since I started.
‐‐ Jenna Marbles
There's a big difference between race and culture. Because racially, I'm an Indian man. Culturally, not at all.
‐‐ Russell Peters
There's a big difference between sanity and insanity.
‐‐ Megan Gallagher
There's a big difference between somebody who does acid on weekends and somebody who takes downers every day.
‐‐ Tommy Rettig
There's a big difference between the independent film world and the Hollywood film world, and I don't know that I understood that until I got into certain rooms, and people's faces go blank when you talk about Sundance.
‐‐ Ava DuVernay
There's a big difference between the role of an academic and the role of someone in government. That's a cliche, but in academic life if you say things that are common sense and people nod their heads, it's not very useful. You're not adding anything.
‐‐ Cass Sunstein
There's a big difference between wanting to work and having to work. And I had to learn that the hard way. Now money is very important to me, because I ain't got it.
‐‐ James Caan
There's a big difference to me between the people who are famous and just accept the fact that it comes with the territory of what they do, and the people who actively seek it out, who intentionally put themselves in the position of being on camera and being famous.
‐‐ Jon Glaser
There's a big film industry in Egypt, and quite a big one in Syria, and there's a big Muslim community in Paris.
‐‐ Ridley Scott
There's a big gap between 'Click the link to send an e-mail to your congressman' and 'Chain yourself to the White House.'
‐‐ Billy Parish
There's a big gap between public opinion polls and the vote in Washington, in Congress.
‐‐ Gloria Steinem
There's a big gaping hole in the EDM space for songwriting. It's one thing to learn how to be a great sound designer and become big just on sound design. Especially if you're in the dubstep category, it's like, how much fatter and more interesting can you make those drops.
‐‐ Steve Aoki
There's a big overlap with the people you meet at the fantasy and science fiction cons.
‐‐ Fred Saberhagen
There's a big tendency to gravitate toward a closed and proprietary approach too easily.
‐‐ Jimmy Wales
There's a big thing in Canada that parents need to talk to their children about drugs and sex. I don't think talking to your kids about war is any less important than that.
‐‐ Deborah Ellis
There's a big, wonderful world out there for you. It belongs to you. It's exciting and stimulating and rewarding. Don't cheat yourselves out of this promise.
‐‐ Nancy Reagan
There's a bigger difference now than when I first got into professional baseball because that was before guaranteed contracts, before there was a lot of money, so it was mostly survival. You had more competition.
‐‐ Tony La Russa
There's a bigger universe at hand.
‐‐ Marc Webb
There's a bit more of a safe distance when you're making a narrative movie, a bit more perspective. Audiences can separate themselves from the harsh reality of the facts a little bit more and think: 'Okay, how do I consider this?'
‐‐ Tom McCarthy
There's a bit of a new guard of contemporary classical musicians in New York, and we play a lot of different kinds of music together. We do pop studio sessions, and we'll also play John Cage and more avant-garde work. We're developing a language of music that comes with a lot of different styles, different kinds of work.
‐‐ Caroline Shaw
There's a bit of debate about that; some say it was really Matthew, but the popular consensus is that Mark was the first one, so that's why I did that one first. And I was planning on doing all four.
‐‐ Chester Brown
There's a bit of magic in everything, and some loss to even things out.
‐‐ Lou Reed
There's a bit of the kid in me.
‐‐ Jeff Bridges
There's a bit of truth in everything I do, you know.
‐‐ Paul Hogan
There's a bizarre insistence on how a story should be. 'The protagonist must be sympathetic!' they say. Whatever that means. I never engage in that discussion. I never use that word, 'sympathetic.' I just know 'interesting.'
‐‐ Alexander Payne
There's a bizarre prejudice that exists in the New York publishing establishment that any work outside the tri-state area is being done by trained chimpanzees, that geography screens out sensibility. There's an idea that all Los Angeles writing is about the movie industry, that it's vulgar, shallow and banal.
‐‐ Kate Braverman
There's a black man inside of me just trying to make bail.
‐‐ Brad Garrett
There's a bond among a kitchen staff, I think. You spend more time with your chef in the kitchen than you do with your own family.
‐‐ Gordon Ramsay
There's a book called 'The Shack' - it had a lot to do with me coming full circle, meeting my birth mother. Awhile back, my birth mom and my adopted mom came to my show together, and it was pretty surreal.
‐‐ Rodney Atkins
There's a book called 'Where The Wild Things Are,' by American writer Maurice Sendak... it really is the most sublime book. It's a picture book, but it works at so many levels, and it's fantastic.
‐‐ Graeme Base
There's a book out called 'How Money Walks' written by Travis Brown. He's followed annual adjusted gross income from 1992 to 2011. Approximately $100 billion has moved to Florida from all over the country. Number two is Arizona. Where does it come from? It's come from New York; it's come from New Jersey; and it's come from California.
‐‐ Rick Scott
There's a book that I read, really a great book - it's called 'Lone Survivor' and I think they're trying to make it into a movie. I would love to play Marcus Luttrell, who was the author and the 'lone survivor.' He's a national hero; he's very courageous and heroic in insurmountable danger, so it's something I'd love to explore.
‐‐ Jared Padalecki
There's a book that's critical to understanding anxiety, a 17th-century book, 'The Anatomy of Melancholy,' by Robert Burton. I wanted to write something like that.
‐‐ Scott Stossel
There's a bookstore in New York where you could buy scripts, and I got addicted to them because they were easy, quick reads... and the pictures were so vivid.
