23

96
It sure would be nice to have a Washington that was there for us, but most help has always been local and regional.

117
It’d be nice to be what they call a Renaissance man.
118
Sometimes I think it would be nice to share everything I’ve got with somebody – and sometimes I think I’m very lucky to have the bathroom to myself. But I feel it would be nice to pass on my knowledge. Perhaps because I haven’t got children – one wants to educate somebody.

It’d be nice to settle down in a great home instead of just moving around and stuff like that.
120

125
A woman at a bookstore in Brattleboro, Vt., put Castle Freeman Jr.’s novel ‘Go With Me’ in my hand, and I took it to be nice. ‘Yeah I’ll probably read five pages,’ I thought. But once I started, I could not put it down.
126
Sometimes doing the forbidden can be nice.
127

135
I enjoy photography. It’s a lot of fun. It keeps me on my P’s and Q’s and, when you think about it, most people think photography is just going to a game. But you start to think, dang, that would be a good picture. Or you’re driving along and see something and think, ‘that would be nice.’

141

142
I think we’ve been programmed from birth to be a certain way – to be demure, to be polite, and to be nice and to not be boastful or braggadocios in all of these things – and it leads to this kind of tragedy. Women spend so much time hating what they look like.
143
I can be nice – I don’t need to be rude for no reason.

148
Always be nice to those younger than you, because they are the ones who will be writing about you.
149
There’s not one part of me that wants to go crazy and do anything out of the ordinary, but it would be nice to do something and not have it spread all over the place. But that’s the world we live in now, and you either have to accept it or figure it out – or become a villain, I guess.
150
When I was at high school, I thought it’d be nice to go into Air Force Academy and fly jets, but that was a very brief dream. Ha, ha. I’m too lanky to fit in the cockpit.

153
Be honest, be nice, be a flower not a weed.
154

155
Just to go into a shop without getting stared at would be nice. I mean, I don’t walk around like, ‘Oh, I’m trying to be famous’ – I try to lead as normal a life as possible – but sometimes it’s annoying. It’s fine; it’s not a massive problem, but sometimes it’s just a bit uncomfortable.
156

157

158
It would be nice to design a real briefcase – you open it up and it’s your computer but it also stores your books.

160
It is nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.
161

162
It would be nice if areas could be revitalised – like places in the U.S. such as Pittsburgh, for example, which have been transformed through shale. There you have shiny cars in a shiny city because of the development of shale in an old industrial heartland.
163
I don’t feel like I have to be nice and apologetic all of the time. I’m trying to be strong and fierce.
164

169
Always be nice to bankers. Always be nice to pension fund managers. Always be nice to the media. In that order.
170
When we talk to somebody and we want to be nice or polite or show our more beautiful side, we try to use the best words that we know. This is what poets are doing. They are cleaning the words, they are inventing the sentiments, they are giving us a way to communicate.
171
It would be nice if every state were like New Mexico and cared about the Indian vote.
172

American fiction is good. It would be nice if somebody read it.
180
Lust is temporary, romance can be nice, but love is the most important thing of all. Because without love, lust and romance will always be short-lived.
181
It would be nice if we redefined what we meant by ‘war story.’ If you’re making $15,000 a year living in a certain area of Portland, trying to make it with three kids and no husband, that’s a kind of war.
182
I’ve always thought it’d be nice to be seaweed, kind of just floating about.
183
Your first job, I tell people I mentor, is managing your affect. Be nice and say nice things. Make it so that the people walk away from interacting with you and say, ‘That was fun.’ That will make them want to come back and do it again.
184
It would be nice to finish Khabib via liver shots, wouldn’t it? I just want to see him wincing in pain on the ground where he belongs.
185
Be honest, be nice, be a flower not a weed.
186
The big trick is just to get to a point where we’re just considered DPs, and we’re not ‘female DPs.’ When you think of the word ‘doctor’ or ‘teacher,’ you don’t think gender. And it would be nice to get to a place where ‘DP’ meant either and ‘director’ meant either and ‘gaffer’ meant either.
187
I don’t think a powerful man would be interesting unless he’d be nice, attractive, with or without the power. Men are interested in powerful men. Women are interested in terrific men!
188
I don’t think they need to be nice to reporters, but the White House seems to imagine that releasing information is like a tap that can be turned on and off at their whim.
189
The most important thing especially in domestic cricket is to enjoy each day there, be nice to people around you and never get frustrated.
190
Of course it would be nice for everybody and myself if we could win but we can still have a personal or a team win if we achieve a target that is effectively a win for us.
191
It would perhaps be nice to be alternately the victim and the executioner.
192
I like to be firm. But it is easier to be nice than to be nasty.
193
The fact I even get an opportunity to make one album is crazy. But if all goes to plan, I’ll get to make five albums. That’d be nice.
194
I thought about that the other day after I went to the grocery store and had to sign fifteen autographs before leaving. On one hand, it’s just so flattering. On the other hand, sometimes it would be nice to get the bread and leave, you know?
195
I remember I did think, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if Mr. Right moved in next door?’
196
It would be nice to garner new fans and make it a success – and success is relevant, we already know all that.
197
It’s a little bit of a bummer because you’re really trying to do good work and be nice and be a good person, and in the meantime… people wish negative things upon you.
198
It’s nice to be important, but it’s important to always be nice.
199

At the end of the day, it’s a game. You play the best that you can. You need to keep a smile. You need to be nice to others. Everybody’s trying hard.
201
Winning the Rookie of the Year would be nice but making the playoffs would be even nicer for me.
202
I’ve seen stuff that says be nice and I think: you’re not showing me anything. You’re telling me, like a Hallmark card: be nice, nice to be nice, innit?
203
Everything I do is somehow rooted in humanity. It’s always about people; it’s always about ego. It’s always about desperation. It’s quite existential. You know, ‘Am I leading a good life?’ That might be because I’m an atheist, and I think this is all we’ve got, so you better be nice. And have fun.
204
Talent is obviously very important, but it’s also about how you approach the work and, you know, maybe this is a Canadian thing, but it’s good to be nice.
205
Be nice to people on your way up because you meet them on your way down.
