There's an old hymn called 'How Can I Keep from Singing?' That's what writing feels like to me. I have to write. It's intrinsic to who I am. So it was a natural choice for me to try to pursue writing as a career. Truthfully, though, I still daydream about how fun it would be to ride on the back of a garbage truck.

There's an old joke that politics is Hollywood for ugly people. An awful lot of the press coverage about Washington reads like coverage of Hollywood. Madonna is having some spat with Sean Penn. Who cares? And who cares which politician is mad at that politician?
‐‐ Ted Cruz
There's an old maxim that says, 'Things that work persist,' which is why there's still Cobol floating around.
‐‐ Vint Cerf
There's an old rule of thumb in politics that 90 percent of all 90 year-olds vote and 25 percent of all 25 year-olds vote.

There's an old saw about journalism that the more you know about a subject, the less sense reporting about it makes.
‐‐ Jonathan Galassi
There's an old saying amongst players in football talking about your general manger and coaches, they speak with a forked tongue.
‐‐ Joe Namath
There's an old saying in Hollywood: It's not the length of your film, it's how you use it.
‐‐ Ben Stiller
There's an old saying in politics: You never run the same race twice. Democrats are running the same race three, four, five times. It's an old ploy, and Coloradans see through it.
‐‐ Cory Gardner
There's an old saying that God exists in your search for him. I just want you to understand that I ain't looking.
‐‐ Leslie Nielsen
There's an old saying that you don't ever finish a movie, you abandon it, and I really believe that. I never walk away from a take and pat myself on the back.
‐‐ Ryan Reynolds
There's an old saying, this too shall pass, and change is good.
‐‐ Joe Lando
There's an ongoing competition by global companies across all areas from products, technology development and hiring talented people to patent disputes. The market is big and opportunities are wide open, so we should find out new businesses that Samsung's future will hinge on.
‐‐ Lee Kun-hee
There's an open door now more than ever to be making any type of beats that you want.
‐‐ Ryan Lewis
There's an opportunity for the corner drugstore to play a much greater role. Pharmacists have been extremely well respected - they're one of the top two or three most-trusted professionals in opinion polls year after year.
‐‐ Gregory Wasson
There's an opportunity for the pharmacist to play a much greater role in health care, especially with what we have going on in this country with the shortage of primary-care physicians.

There's an outline for each of the books that I adhere to pretty closely, but I'm not averse to taking it in a new direction, as long as I can get it back to where I need it to go.
‐‐ Justin Cronin
There's an overemphasis on conservation and other idyllic energy sources that can be harmful in that it hampers new technology and innovation.
‐‐ Klaus Lackner
There's an overlap between social-realist fiction and crime fiction - a sweet spot there.
‐‐ Daniel Woodrell
There's an overwhelming sense of paranoia in the suburbs. People there seem so much more paranoid to me than people in the city about their kids being kidnapped or their parties being raided or their drinks being spiked. There's a kind of hysteria about that.
‐‐ Meg Rosoff
There's an unconscious bias in our society: girls are wonderful; boys are terrible. And to be a boy, or young man, growing up, having to listen to all this, it must be painful.
‐‐ Doris Lessing
There's an undeniable thrill in seeing what's most current in our lives offered back to us in fictional guise, but it soon dates and it's never enough.
‐‐ Graham Swift
There's an undeniable tradition of sexism in this country that ties into the move westward by people of European descent and different ways of looking at Manifest Destiny on the west side of the Mississippi River.
‐‐ Tommy Lee Jones
There's an unhealthy obsession in America with royalty and the class system.
‐‐ Kit Harington
There's an unintended consequence when it comes to drone attacks in Yemen. Yeah, you take out the al-Qaida stronghold, but you also wipe out the other half of the block. That makes Yemenis against the United States for the rest of their lives and all their descendants.

There's an unseen force which lets birds know when you've just washed your car.
‐‐ Denis Norden
There's an unspoken rule in affluent circles that suggests you can always define an individual's status by measuring his or her proximity to the most influential person in the room. And as the maxim goes, closer is always better.
‐‐ Jamie Johnson
There's an unwritten law that you cannot have a Jewish character in a film who isn't 100 percent perfect, or you're labeled anti-Semitic.
‐‐ Spike Lee
There's another film - a little Greek movie - that hopefully is going to get some distribution here in the U.S., called 'Worlds Apart,' where I also play a 60-year-old guy who looks a lot like J.K. Simmons, who has a romantic relationship with an appropriate woman.

There's another girl who was going to play Hilary Faye and luckily she wound up not doing it.
‐‐ Heather Matarazzo
There's another horizon out there, one more horizon that you have to make for yourself and let other people discover it, and someone else will take it further on, you know.
‐‐ Gordon Parks
There's another issue here - and I have some limits as to what I can say - but there's some real question as to the viability of the chemical masks, the protective gear used by our soldiers.
‐‐ Christopher Shays
There's another way of making music, by touching the lives and feelings of ordinary people.
‐‐ Gavin Bryars
There's another way we are getting behind business - by sorting out the banks. Taxpayers bailed you out. Now it's time for you to repay the favour and start lending to Britain's small businesses.
‐‐ David Cameron
There's another world out there just beyond the world we're in. It's just on the other side of that translucent, semitransparent surface.
‐‐ Bill Viola
There's apparently soccer leagues that they've set up with young Indian girls.
‐‐ Parminder Nagra
There's art in rhythm playing. Just find it. Make your own art. Find your place, and when it's your time to solo, it's your time to shine.
‐‐ Ricky Skaggs
There's artists that I'm working with on a new label of mine. Foxy Nova and Supa Nova.
‐‐ Kenneth Edmonds
There's as much crookedness as you want to find. There was something Abraham Lincoln said - he'd rather trust and be disappointed than distrust and be miserable all the time. Maybe I trusted too much.
‐‐ John Wooden
There's as much great authorship in the filmmaker community as in the literary community, and I'd love to welcome more filmmakers into the fold.
‐‐ Nina Jacobson
There's as much revealed in the way a person lifts a glass as in what they say about some political issue.
‐‐ Rosemary Mahoney
There's backlash about everything I do.
‐‐ Lana Del Rey
There's barely a strand of the modern media that the Kardashian-Wests haven't been able to master, and for good reason: Kanye is an amazing performer and cultural provocateur, while Kim, through her strength of character, has created a place for herself in the glare of the world's spotlight, and it takes real guts to do that.
‐‐ Anna Wintour
There's basically an element of fiction in everything you remember. Imagination and memory are almost the same brain processes. When I write fiction, I know that I'm using a bunch of lies that I've made up to create some form of truth. When I write a memoir, I'm using true elements to create something that will always be somehow fictionalized.
‐‐ Isabel Allende
There's beauty everywhere. There are amazing things happening everywhere, you just have to be able to open your eyes and witness it. Some days, that's harder than others.
‐‐ Sarah McLachlan
There's been a big buzz about the Charlatans in the last couple of years. I've heard the word Charlatans more in the last few years than I'd heard it for the previous 20 years. People would interview me for years and never even mention the Charlatans.
‐‐ Dan Hicks
There's been a big evolution since the days of personal computing. People had a concept of one computing device per family or maybe per person. We've clearly evolved to computing devices becoming more personal.
‐‐ Sundar Pichai
There's been a big spur in downtown development with new business, restaurants and a lot of loft buying. The buses run, and there's a subway that runs through downtown.
‐‐ Michael Ritchie
There's been a big void out there, in terms of where I've been and what I am currently working on, I'd like to fill that void now and share my exciting plans for the future.

There's been a boiling down of real emotion into a set pattern instead of individualism.
