Things like anatomy and drawing and design and color had pretty much been drop-kicked out of the curriculum in the '70s, when I was studying art, in favor of abstraction and minimalism.
‐‐ David Small
Things like depression and obesity are global challenges.
‐‐ Jane McGonigal
Things like Facebook have made you feel as though you're connected to everybody. You've got a thousand friends on Facebook, but you don't actually talk to anybody. You're not close to anybody.
‐‐ Jason Reitman
Things like 'Lucky Man' were never written to even be a record, let alone a hit record.
‐‐ Greg Lake
Things like that become a blur - shot at some soundstage, somewhere - that's as much as I can remember.
‐‐ Rob Zombie
Things like the financial markets - a proper grounding in mathematics could help the common man. I believe that if people are more familiar with mathematical concepts... it can help deal with modern life, which is increasingly complex.
‐‐ Viswanathan Anand
Things like the movie 'Memento' are interesting to me because our memories of the things we've done and how we've behaved form our notion of who we are, what our character is. So if part of that were missing, what does that actually say about you? And what does it say about your sense of responsibility for things if you can't remember them?
‐‐ Paula Hawkins
Things like WhatsApp are a great example of success that others have had on Android, which we see as welcome innovation on the platform.
‐‐ Sundar Pichai
Things look especially bleak for common killers such as diabetes and heart disease. Those ailments clearly have a genetic component. But when scientists survey genes looking for which mutations patients have in common, they come up empty.
‐‐ Sam Kean
Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.
‐‐ Abraham Lincoln
Things may not be immediately discernible in what a man writes, and in this sometimes he is fortunate; but eventually they are quite clear, and by these and the degree of alchemy that he possesses, he will endure or be forgotten.
‐‐ Ernest Hemingway
Things move very slowly in politics. We seem to fight the same wars over and over again.
‐‐ Pete du Pont
Things must be done by parties, not by persons using parties as tools.
‐‐ Benjamin Disraeli
Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and adventures are the shadow truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes and forgotten.
‐‐ Neil Gaiman
Things need shaking up politically, culturally.
‐‐ Daniel Craig
Things need shaking up when American women feel endangered even as Yosemite bears lumber around belching, their eyes glazed with surfeit, their pelts covered in Oreo crumbs.
‐‐ Sandra Tsing Loh
Things never go the way you expect them to. That's both the joy and frustration in life. I'm finding as I get older that I don't mind, though. It's the surprises that tickle me the most, the things you don't see coming.
‐‐ Michael Stuhlbarg
Things of this world are in so constant a flux, that nothing remains long in the same state.
‐‐ John Locke
Things on a very small scale behave like nothing that you have any direct experience about. They do not behave like waves, they do not behave like particles, they do not behave like clouds, or billiard balls, or weights on springs, or like anything that you have ever seen.
‐‐ Richard P. Feynman
Things on the whole are much faster in America; people don't 'stand for election', they 'run for office.'
‐‐ Jessica Mitford
Things parents say to children are oftentimes not heard, but in some cases you pick up on things that your parent would like to see you have done.
‐‐ Gene Hackman
Things present themselves to you, and it's how you choose to deal with them that reveals who you are. We all say a lot of things, don't we, about who we are and how we think. But in the end it's your actions, how you respond to circumstance that reveals your character.
‐‐ Cate Blanchett
Things really began to move for us. In 1953 I could afford to marry Doreen.
‐‐ Ernie Wise
Things rust, you know, like the heart. My cardiologist said, 'It's a pump; use it - that's the sole advice I've got to give you.' It's the same in playwriting. Don't theorise about it. Do it.
‐‐ Peter Shaffer
Things said by political parties are different from the decisions of the government which are taken to uphold the rule of law. The government takes decisions that are best for the country.
‐‐ Oscar Fernandes
Things said to a reporter in confidence should be kept in confidence.
‐‐ Dorothy Kilgallen
Things slow down, the ball seems a lot bigger and you feel like you have more time. Everything computes - you have options, but you always take the right one.
‐‐ John McEnroe
Things start out as hopes and end up as habits.
‐‐ Lillian Hellman
Things started to get out of control when I began reading that I was a superstar.
‐‐ James Taylor
Things take a long time, but when it's right things move fast.
‐‐ James Blunt
Things tend to come when they are meant to come. I know that sounds kind of like spiritual and cheesy, but I think things come when they're meant to come.
‐‐ Martha Plimpton
Things that appear on the front page of the newspaper as 'fact' are far more dangerous than the games played by a novelist, and can lead to wars.
‐‐ E. L. Doctorow
Things that are interesting, people will pass around the Internet, around the world. And the blogosphere is only the tip of the iceberg.
‐‐ Robert Scoble
Things that are ultimately complex must have a simple end user experience if they are to be successful.
‐‐ Homaro Cantu
Things that are unknown attract us.
‐‐ Deborah Ann Woll
Things that bring out your emotions are what should be in theaters and in books. That's what art is. It makes you feel things.
‐‐ Dominique Swain
Things that burn very brightly, we wonder how long they can keep burning.
‐‐ Nick Woodman
Things that came before, people and things and experiences - that does mean something to me. It doesn't mean I don't embrace the new, but I don't forget the past, either.
‐‐ Vera Wang
Things that go on at Happy Times are very funny this year, and if you were watching last year, some of the people you saw then as basically extras emerge as real characters in their own right this season, at least to some degree.
‐‐ Ellen Muth
Things that happen every day are, frankly, what we in the news business aren't good at covering because there is no one day in which they are news.
‐‐ Nicholas Kristof
Things that happen in Wyoming are things that wouldn't happen in a big city - we've got bears, we've got a lot of shotguns - in Absaroka County, everybody's got a shotgun in the back of their car!
‐‐ Katee Sackhoff
Things that have happened with Enron and companies like that, where they've squandered their employees' pension funds, I think it has brought a new level of anxiety. People don't feel like they can trust their employer.
‐‐ Mike Huckabee
Things that I consider bad qualities, I always try and figure out where they are coming from. I don't consider ambition to be a bad one. It's served me very well in my life. Very well.
‐‐ Rob Lowe
Things that I do tend not to work out commercially.
‐‐ Stewart Lee
Things that I felt absolutely sure of but a few years ago, I do not believe now. This thought makes me see more clearly how foolish it would be to expect all men to agree with me.
‐‐ Jim Rohn
Things that I grew up with stay with me. You start a certain way, and then you spend your whole life trying to find a certain simplicity that you had. It's less about staying in childhood than keeping a certain spirit of seeing things in a different way.
‐‐ Tim Burton
Things that look like an 'overnight success' typically are not.
‐‐ Jason Calacanis
Things that made me happy five, six years ago don't make me happy anymore.
‐‐ Kenny Chesney
Things that make me laugh range from a wonderful stand-up like Jerry Seinfeld, Louis C.K. and Chris Rock to my son Gabe, who does great improv work. I also look backwards to the great comedic actors like Jackie Gleason, Paul Lynde and Phil Silvers.
