OK, I wasn’t as successful as, say, Julia Roberts, but I’d spent years in a very respectable career, some big American films but a host of other smaller, really exciting, maybe experimental films, being paid rubbish but working with fine people, that was what I thought I was known for.
Joely Richardson
164
It is not only fine feathers that make fine birds.
Aesop
165
So fantasy was fine early on, and when I discovered science fiction, I was very happy with it, because my first interest in science fiction came with an interest in astronomy.
Octavia E. Butler
166
For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.
Roland Barthes
167
We all had to dodge the idea we were spokespeople for our races. Like, ‘Hey, it’s the Mexican Guy! The Filipino! The Chick!’ We’ve always stood up to it and said, ‘Fine, bring it on and we’ll show you how we rock.’
Taboo
168
I love dressing up, but I do find the red carpet thing quite stressful. When I went to Venice Film Festival last month to promote ‘Wuthering Heights,’ I told my boyfriend beforehand ‘I will be a nightmare, I will cry, I will be nervous.’ Actually once I was there, it was fine.
Kaya Scodelario
169
I like a women who’s got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that’s fine.
James Hetfield
170
I would consider myself a perfectionist, yeah. I don’t think that is always that helpful, either. Sometimes it’s good to be a little more open-minded; you can overthink things when things are actually fine, and it’s that moment that you lose it. Looking back, sometimes I’ve made mistakes from being a perfectionist.
Tom Odell
171
There’s a very fine line between a groove and a rut; a fine line between eccentrics and people who are just plain nuts.
Christine Lavin
172
I understand that people want to just listen to a track and put it on their iPod, and that’s fine, there’s nothing wrong with that, but why can’t that exist hand in hand with an album? They’re such different experiences.
Kate Bush
173
I collect human relationships very much the way others collect fine art.
Jerzy Kosinski
174
I graduated with a Bachelors of Fine Art in Graphic Design, and all in all, I can look back on my collegiate experience and say that I really did enjoy myself.
Karen Bardsley
175
I don’t mind if somebody texts me but I’m not a big texter, the things are too small. I don’t mind if they text, ‘7 o’clock,’ that’s fine, that’s logistics but, ‘What’s up?’ Get real! Pick up a phone!
Penny Marshall
176
To my knowledge, there have been no studies done on the effects of antidepressants and altitude. But it is hugely important to find out if there are side effects. We should also find out what are the effects on fine motor skills and reaction time. These are all important questions that should be assessed.
Dale Archer
177
Fine art is really something I want to get into.
Adam Jones
178
As long as I know my head’s in the right place, my feet are on the ground, I think I’ll be fine.
Jack Osbourne
179
For me, the driving emotion of selecting a film is that I just love that story. It may give a message, it may not give a message – that’s fine. I just loved it.
Aamir Khan
180
I remember going to university, and the people who’d left home for the first time looked at the food and were horrified. Whereas, my view was that if it was vaguely edible, then it’s fine.
Alain de Botton
181
I get on fine with my mum and dad, but if they want to see the grandchildren, they come to me.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson
182
Ever since I dated a woman, I know what it is to grab a curve on a woman’s body. Skinny’s not fine when the lights are low.
Angelina Jolie
183
Most people want to become movie stars and I just want to be in the business. I already was a star. If I get the part of a lifetime and it blows up, then that’s wonderful. But if the acting doesn’t work, fine. I’ll just be a producer. And if the producing doesn’t work, fine. I’ve got a lot of other stuff.
Carl Lewis
184
People who never get anxious always amaze me. The world could be breaking up, and they’re saying, ‘Everything’s fine!’
Lena Headey
185
My father, a fine chess player himself, has been a massive influence throughout my life.
Magnus Carlsen
186
I’ve had no contact with my daughter for years. That’s her choice. Anyway, you move on. If people don’t want to bother with me, fine. You know, God bless them, and move on.
Anthony Hopkins
187
I am really OK with the way I look. It’s fine. All this is transient. I mean, it’s really, you know, it changes with time, and that’s the external.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
188
I have a fine lot of telescopes. I have one with which I can see the Mountains in the Moon.
Ezra Cornell
189
Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.
Wyatt Earp
190
Insane people are always sure that they are fine. It is only the sane people who are willing to admit that they are crazy.
Nora Ephron
191
I’m just getting settled as a responsible man – but if you split the elephant into little mouthfuls it will be fine.
Tom Hardy
192
I get a fine warm feeling when I’m doing well, but that pleasure is pretty much negated by the pain of getting started each day. Let’s face it, writing is hell.
William Styron
193
I love my children and care greatly for their future. If they decide they just want to loaf around for a bit between the ages of 16 and 25, that’s perfectly fine by me. I did it, and I’m doing fine, thanks. Sometimes ‘leaving kids to their own devices’ is the best thing for them.
John Niven
194
I am fine because somebody’s opinion can’t become my reality.
Disha Patani
195
There’s a fine line between character building and soul destroying.
Colin Hay
196
You go, well you can’t joke about race. Well if you’re from a different race and that’s your experience of the world and you want to talk about that, then fine. Or you can’t talk about disability, but disabled comics can talk about that.
Jimmy Carr
197
Reading about nature is fine, but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully, he can learn more than what is in books, for they speak with the voice of God.
George Washington Carver
198
At any rate, girls are differently situated. Having no need of deep scientific knowledge, their education is confined more to the ordinary things of the world, the study of the fine arts, and of the manners and dispositions of people.
William John Wills
199
‘3:10 to Yuma’ was one that I just kept on talking and thinking about after reading it. And I think the reason is because, like in most Westerns, you have the very clear-cut bad-guy/good-guy, however, as the movie progresses, you kind of see that it’s a very fine line that divides these two.
Christian Bale
200
After doing One Fine Day and playing a pediatrician on ER, I’ll never have kids. I’m going to have a vasectomy.
George Clooney
201
So I’d be quite happy to have a three-hour Lincoln-Douglas-style debate with Barack Obama. I’d let him use a teleprompter. I’ll just rely on knowledge. We’ll do fine.
Newt Gingrich
202
There are those who would draw a sharp line between power politics and a principled foreign policy based on values. This polarized view – you are either a realist or devoted to norms and values – may be just fine in academic debate, but it is a disaster for American foreign policy. American values are universal.
Condoleezza Rice
203
I see the tool set being the same and maybe doing virtual movies and that’s fine for some stories but not for others. And maybe make all CG movies but they are already doing it.
Dennis Muren
204
Maybe I’m just like a child. I’m full of curiosity about things, and it’s fine as long as it’s fun at that time, yet at the same time, I hate things that are tough.
Akira Toriyama
205
If I’m going to be ‘too’ anything, ‘too cute’ is fine. I love puppies. So what? Who hates puppies?
Zooey Deschanel
206
I want to be relatable. I want people to know who I am, but that doesn’t mean you get to know everything about me and my life. I think that there’s a fine line.
Lili Reinhart
207
Mother, she likes the blue material just fine.
Ron White
208
I’ve always been fascinated by the difference between the jokes you can tell your friends but you can’t tell to an audience. There’s a fine line you have to tread because you don’t know who is out there in the auditorium. A lot of people are too easily offended.
Billy Connolly
209
As someone who has faced as much disappointment as most people, I’ve come to trust not that events will always unfold exactly as I want, but that I will be fine either way.
Marianne Williamson
210
My mother, Laura Sumner, had cerebral palsy. She was born absolutely fine, but after about three days, she started having convulsions that left her with a condition that would confine her to a wheelchair her entire life.
Bernard Sumner
211
I’ve always maintained that there is a very fine line between a daring, sexy older woman and mutton dressed as lamb.
Joan Collins
212
Apparently nobody really read it, it was a cheap movie, it fit their schedule in terms of things so fine, let the guy make that high school comedy. I used to work with Mel Brooks so they figured oh it’s going to be one of those really silly movies and that’s how it got made.
Barry Levinson
213
A lot of parents tell their children that if they want to be an actor, that’s fine, but they should do something else first, so they’ve got something to fall back on. It doesn’t work like that, as far as I’m concerned.
Ewan McGregor
214
The entire world is my temple, and a very fine one too, if I’m not mistaken, and I’ll never lack priests to serve it as long as there are men.
Desiderius Erasmus
215
Morocco as it is is a very fine place spoiled by civilization.
Richard Harding Davis
216
There are people worse off than me. I’ve had a very long run. I’m fine really. I’m just old.
Barry Took
217
The Dark Side of the Moon is a fine album with a textural and conceptual richness that not only invites, but demands involvement. There is a certain grandeur.
Alan Parsons
218
I’m not dead and I don’t have blue hair but some people say there are similarities. It is usually intolerable to watch myself onscreen but this time it’s fine. I think it’s beautiful and a real work of art.
Helena Bonham Carter
219
Everybody in this race is against Obama, okay? So saying you’re against Obama, against Obamacare, all the rest, it’s all fine, well and good, except it doesn’t move you forward.
Ed Rollins
220
Certainly the caffeine in coffee, whether it’s Starbucks or generic coffee, is somewhat of a stimulant. But if you drink it in moderation, which I think four or five cups a day is, you’re fine.
Howard Schultz
221
If I get a song – a good song – I just sing it the way I hear it in my head. If anybody else wanted to add whistles and bells and chains rattling, that’s fine. Just not too much. I actually just do things as straight ahead as possible.
Glen Campbell
222
It is a fine seasoning for joy to think of those we love.
Moliere
223
Work hard, take care of yourself, and you’ll be just fine.
Richard Simmons
224
I’m thought of as a celebrity. Everything I’ve ever done… has been for children. As long as I was working constantly, that was fine, because, although I don’t have any children, I do relate better to them than adults.
Jack Wild
225
I’ve got a tattoo, my mum’s fine with that.
A. J. Pritchard
226
Happy the man who, like Ulysses, has made a fine voyage, or has won the Golden Fleece, and then returns, experienced and knowledgeable, to spend the rest of his life among his family.
Joachim du Bellay
227
The term ‘pashmina’ is often used interchangeably with ‘cashmere,’ but in reality, pashmina is a specific type of very fine, lofty cashmere, woven from a specific type of goat – one indigenous to northern India, Nepal, and Pakistan, and harvested and woven there as well.
Hanya Yanagihara
228
I want all my friends, family and fans to know that I am in good spirits and I will be fine.
Lil’ Kim
229
You can find fine dining in Singapore but there’s also a wide spread of local dishes available. In Singapore, I prefer to try the local bites.
Zhao Wei
230
There are people who laugh to show their fine teeth; and there are those who cry to show their good hearts.
Joseph Roux
231
Since my body isn’t big, I don’t need much sleep. I’m fine with four hours.
Ozuna
232
I’ve never been one to look up the ladder. I’ve always looked down the ladder. As long as there’s one guy down there, I’m fine.
Ron White
233
I am fine playing ‘Law & Order’ and even the ‘Jurassic’ movies to be straight up, as far as the characters being portrayed there, but I never want to stay in straight-up land too long. I always wanted to do something where the character’s world gets to be explored.
B. D. Wong
234
Getting older is fine. There is nothing you can do to stop it so you might as well stay on the bus.
John Byrne
235
You hear about these shows where there are all these women are supposedly always in a catfight, and then you find out in reality that they’re all getting along fine.
Jeanne Tripplehorn
236
I have high blood sugars, and Type 2 diabetes is not going to kill me. But I just have to eat right, and exercise, and lose weight, and watch what I eat, and I will be fine for the rest of my life.
Tom Hanks
237
This is not to say that the Scots are not fine people, but they were all sort of… well, my grandfather was a minister and sort of Protestant, and this was rather depressing to me.
Alan Hovhaness
238
In the beginning I used to say, ‘I’m healthy, my cholesterol’s fine, I don’t have high blood pressure, I don’t have diabetes.’ By telling people that you see a doctor, and telling people that you’re healthy, it’s perpetuating the abuse against bigger bodies and the mindset that we owe it to people to be healthy.
Tess Holliday
239
If you want to be a successful runner, you have to consider everything. It’s no good just thinking about endurance and not to develop fine speed.
Arthur Lydiard
240
I do not want a personal relationship with my fans. Or to do anything that encourages them to think they have one with me. They can have a personal relationship with my songs. That’s fine, but they don’t know me.
Will Oldham
241
I think there’s nothing better than laughing in life, so that’s nice, to be thought of as someone who can make someone laugh. It’s ’cause I think life is hard. You know, my dad was a really silly man. A great Irish silly man. And that’s fine.
Joan Cusack
242
I believe family first. Blood is thicker than water. I grew up like that, and I want to continue to keep that goal in my heart. Just family first! Just honesty, integrity, and respect. All of that. I live by the code of those things. If you do that you’ll be fine.
Cory Hardrict
243
After some time, with my eyes closed, I began to enjoy this wonderful play of colors and forms, which it really was a pleasure to observe. Then I went to sleep and the next day I was fine. I felt quite fresh, like a newborn.
Albert Hofmann
244
My favorite thing in the world is a box of fine European chocolates which is, for sure, better than sex.
Alicia Silverstone
245
I have a fine sense of the ridiculous, but no sense of humor.
Edward Albee
246
No, I think I used to be pretty superstitious about certain things, but I’m really not anymore. As long as I have everything is in order and I have my things as far as the match goes, shooting I’m fine. But I really don’t.
Nancy Johnson
247
I’m 24. I think when I was 18, 19, I had a problem with it because I wanted to look older and more womanly. I look in the mirror and I don’t feel or look 14 to myself, regardless of what other people think. I’m fine with it and it really doesn’t matter what age I’m playing.
Alison Lohman
248
It’s like you always have to put on a happy face, be the phony baloney, and I’m so not that. I never was that; I’ll never be that. That is part of the business that I don’t like. Maybe that will always keep me an outsider, I don’t know. But that’s fine.
Chloe Sevigny
249
Again, like I said, we’re not trying to censor anyone. If you think drugs are cool, fine. Make that movie. We are not going to stop you, or try to stop you, but we would encourage other people to be a bit more responsible about their portrayal of drug usage.
Gerald McRaney
250
It is going to be an experiment of how it works, and I see I have all reasons to believe that it will work fine. But it’s a short time. And we also have pushed the envelope here a little beyond what has been done in the past.
Claude Nicollier
251
In fine, nothing is said now that has not been said before.
Jean Racine
252
I used to unwind the wire tags that labeled the crates of vegetables and took the fine brass and steel wires and braided and twisted them together to make bracelets, rings, and figures.
Ruth Asawa
253
I had an affair with an older woman when I was at college, and she was a strong feminist, which shaped my view of women. I learned that they could call the shots, which was fine with me.
Grayson Perry
254
Writing is a fine therapy for people who are perpetually scared of nameless threats… for jittery people.
William Styron
255
Solitude is fine, but you need someone to tell you that solitude is fine.
Honore de Balzac
256
The truth, the absolute truth, is that the chief beauty for the theatre consists in fine bodily proportions.
Sarah Bernhardt
257
Our liquidity is fine. As a matter of fact, it’s better than fine. It’s strong.
Kenneth Lay
258
I think it’s important that we don’t all have to hold our heads high all the time saying everything’s fine.
Nicole Kidman
259
I know my name gets used illegally all the time all over the internet. You know, it is a trademarked name, so it will be something that we always have to deal with. I never needed to change it. It was always fine with me. It is a strange name; that’s for sure.
Dweezil Zappa
260
I don’t believe in politics. I’m an anarchist, I guess you could say. I think people could be just fine looking after themselves.
Woody Harrelson
261
The intellectual is a middle-class product; if he is not born into the class he must soon insert himself into it, in order to exist. He is the fine nervous flower of the bourgeoisie.
Louise Bogan
262
Everybody has their role in the food world and what they choose to appreciate. I’m not a fine dining chef. I appreciate it. I think Thomas Keller is amazing. But I really like where I’m at; I like what I do. I like how it makes people feel.
Guy Fieri
263
I remember my first test in F1. After five laps, I came back to the pits and tried to play it cool – ‘Oh yeah, I’m fine, I’m on top of this’ – but I was completely lost.
Sebastian Vettel
264
There are certain things I don’t want to joke about. If it’s about somebody else, it’s fine. If it’s about me, I think it’s totally insensitive!
Gilbert Gottfried
265
The degree of intelligence that a man or a machine can show depends on many qualities of the ways that knowledge, goals, and problem-solving techniques are represented and put together, and not so much on the fine details.
Marvin Minsky
266
Eartha Mae is very shy. She’s scared to be seen, scared of rejection and even afraid of affection. Relationships can be rather uncomfortable for her. But, as Eartha Kitt, it’s fine. I can accept and reject any time I want to. Do I ever reject? Not really. Although people think I do!
Eartha Kitt
267
I spent so long studying really hard to become a fine actor, but threw it all away because I got the adulation and the fame so easily.
Mickey Rourke
268
Money is not everything. My ambition was football itself, not the money I’d make from it. If that brings me and my family a more comfortable lifestyle, then that’s fine. But I don’t spend my time between games and training sessions thinking about figures.
Alessandro Del Piero
269
I once had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: no good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.
Eleanor Roosevelt
270
Plastic surgery and breast implants are fine for people who want that, if it makes them feel better about who they are. But, it makes these people, actors especially, fantasy figures for a fantasy world. Acting is about being real being honest.
Kate Winslet
271
No one raps about food like I do. I rap about fine dishes – like, all kinds of things that only real chefs and real foodies are going to know about.
Action Bronson
272
Thanks to farm subsidies, the fine collaboration between agribusiness and Congress, soy, corn and cattle became king. And chicken soon joined them on the throne. It was during this period that the cycle of dietary and planetary destruction began, the thing we’re only realizing just now.
Mark Bittman
273
It’s a fine line between commenting on social events and exploiting them in a commercial endeavor. This is the tension with which the fashion industry struggles – unfairly.
Robin Givhan
274
We have the Fine Guidance Sensors, one of which we will exchange out of three. Another one we changed on the last servicing mission, and on the fourth servicing mission in 2003 or 2004, the third one will be exchanged.
Claude Nicollier
275
I think I tried to separate indoors and out. And so when he beat me indoors, I did not see that as letting anybody down, I saw it as a good head to head competition, and so it was. It was fine.
Ralph Boston
276
I may discuss love, and I don’t mind if two men fall in love, fine. Two women, fine. But I flinch when I think of two Jewish women getting together and having a child because the idea of having two Jewish mothers makes my head explode. I have one; I couldn’t handle two.
Garry Shandling
277
In world cricket, I think Joe Root is a fine captain.
Sourav Ganguly
278
I’m fine with just a simple life.
DeAndre Yedlin
279
I’ve seen other artists put out movies that went straight to DVD, and no one cared. Maybe their own fans bought the thing, and that was fine.
Mariah Carey
280
There’s no handbook for parenting. So you walk a very fine line as a parent because you are civilizing these raw things. They will tip the coffee over and finger-paint on the table. At some point, you have to say, ‘We’re gonna have to clean that up because you don’t paint with coffee on a table.’
Gary Oldman
281
For me, there’s a fine line between being a cheeseball and being a good performer.
Norah Jones
282
One chord is fine. Two chords are pushing it. Three chords and you’re into jazz.
Lou Reed
283
I’m a firm believer in God himself, but that’s as far as I can go. I’m not any denomination. I’m not Catholic or Presbyterian or Baptist or Methodist or Jewish or Muslim. I’m none of those things. And I’m sure that’s just fine with God.
Ray Charles
284
Look, three love affairs in history, are Abelard and Eloise, Romeo and Juliet and the American media and this President at the moment. But this doesn’t matter over time. Reality will impinge. If his programs work, he’s fine. If it doesn’t work, all of the adulation of journalists in the world won’t matter.
George Will
285
It is okay to play tough and try to hit guys hard in the course of the play – that’s fine – but I don’t like unnecessary roughness or things that happen after the play.
Le’Veon Bell
286
I know I walk a fine line between being a respected actor and being what they call a sex symbol.
Eva Mendes
287
I would love to see myself as versatile – I think that’s important as a player – but I think, realistically, I feel like kind of how the team sees me is probably more set in stone as a center-back defender, which is totally fine.
Julie Ertz
288
Our Masonic friends have it down very fine. I do not know where they got it so well. I have often wondered where they found out so many of the secrets of our High and Accepted Order of Masonry.
Charles Taze Russell
289
The Mediterranean is in my DNA. I’m fine inland for about a week, but then I yearn for a limitless view of the sea, for the colours and smells of the Italian and French Riviera.
Alain Ducasse
290
True enthusiasm is a fine feeling whose flash I admire where-ever I see it.
Charlotte Bronte
291
My nerves before a gig got worse; I had terrible bad nerves all the time. Once we started… I was fine.
John Bonham
292
Nonviolence is fine as long as it works.
Malcolm X
293
Learning a musical instrument is challenging, it demands fine motor skills and coordination. It develops children’s listening, thinking skills, imagination and perseverance. It brings out the very best in the children as they work collaboratively with their peers and teachers.
Sheila Hancock
294
My first injury ever was a broken toe, and my mother made me run laps around the mat for the rest of the night. She said she wanted me to know that even if I was hurt, I was still fine.
Ronda Rousey
295
I’m much more open to being a supporting actor right now. At the age of 60, I’ll be second fiddle. Fine. I’m happy to do it.
Robin Williams
296
There is a fine balance between honoring the past and losing yourself in it. For example, you can acknowledge and learn from mistakes you made, and then move on and refocus on the now. It is called forgiving yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
297
There’s a fine line between being careful and careless.
Philip Rivers
298
On a personal level, we all get along fine.
Alex Van Halen
299
Life is that perfect fine line between ironies.
Serj Tankian
300
I don’t need to be on the number one show. Number 25 is fine.
Ethan Suplee
301
Some people have been kind enough to call me a fine artist. I’ve always called myself an illustrator. I’m not sure what the difference is. All I know is that whatever type of work I do, I try to give it my very best. Art has been my life.
Norman Rockwell
302
Sometimes there has to be a goat on some level, and I’m totally fine with that being me.
Abby Wambach
303
It’s not about sizzle for me. I think it’s fine. I mean, America made a decision in 2008 to go with a president who did have sizzle.
Rob Portman
304
I think it is fine to have sports divided into men’s and women’s, just as it is fine to say a fifteen-year-old is incapable of consenting to sex. But we should recognize these are social distinctions based on biology, and not categories foisted upon us by nature.
Alice Dreger
305
Everybody says they want to have private providers and we’re saying fine. Let the states negotiate on behalf of a population in your state to drive down your costs. Don’t just give subsidies to insurance companies for expensive insurance.
Maria Cantwell
306
My major was Fine Arts and Education thinking I would become an Art Teacher. I couldn’t visualize myself as an art teacher, thinking how it wouldn’t work.
Mark Mothersbaugh
307
I always reference ‘Mad Max’ when I think about what I want to wear. But it’s a fine line between that and ‘Edward Scissorhands’.
Julian Casablancas
308
I was fine when it came to cheering up others, not so fine with myself.
Gene Tierney
309
When you’re doing a TV show, it’s not like you just shoot for six weeks and you’re in an editing room with all of your footage. It’s like a guitar or a car, you have to fine tune things. You stop doing what’s not working, you work on what is working and you add things that do work.
Chris Pratt
310
I get called an adrenaline junkie every other minute, and I’m just fine with that.
Steve Irwin
311
Concentration is a fine antidote to anxiety.
Jack Nicklaus
312
I didn’t get my first pilot that I screen-tested for, and I really thought it was the end of the world. But it’s fine, you know, you move on to something else.
Rachel McAdams
313
The people I’ve respected most in the industry over the years – Paul Newman, for instance. I just loved the way he handled growing old on-screen. It’s understanding that you’re now basically a character actor. Which is fine, but you have to pay attention to it.
George Clooney
314
A fine quotation is a diamond in the hand of a man of wit and a pebble in the hand of a fool.
Joseph Roux
315
I’ve always been a fine artist.
Joey Skaggs
316
The truth is, you cannot run a political campaign like a tech startup. Technology is a field that fetishizes disruption. The old ways are suspect, and we place an almost irrational trust on new tools. That’s fine for developing games, but it was a failing playbook for politics.
Brianna Wu
317
At my age, you need to verify that everything is fine. I put a lot of pressure on my body, and I feel sometimes pain in my back and in my knees, so I have to be sure that I can keep on training hard before going on.
Hermann Maier
318
I don’t want to sound smug but I am reasonably satisfied with how it’s gone. I think it’s fine.
Colin Firth
319
Bride: A woman with a fine prospect of happiness behind her.
Ambrose Bierce
320
The helicopter is a fine way to travel, but it induces a view of the world that only God and CEOs share on a regular basis.
Morley Safer
321
I feel fine, I don’t care who the director is. All you have to do is know what your doing – all of us – everybody in the business – that’s all you ask anyone – you know your job, I know mine, let’s go do it.
Morgan Freeman
322
I’m fine with being beat-up and pushed around, but I’m really scared of heights and scared of ledges.
John Cena
323
It was a myth that’s often perpetuated at commencement that holds that only hope and promise lie beyond the halls of academe. Don’t worry, be happy. Everything is fine.
Paul Tsongas
324
My years living and working abroad have instilled in me a passion for fine food, wine, theme parties, and enjoying life to the fullest.
Sonja Morgan
325
There’s a fine line between being sweet and innocent and being a tough broad.
Phyllis George
326
Poetry is one of the ancient arts, and it began as did all the fine arts, within the original wilderness of the earth.
Mary Oliver
327
When I read the pilot ‘for Married with Children’, it just reminded me of my Uncle Joe… just a self-deprecating kind of guy. He’d come home from work, and the wife would maybe say ‘I ran over the dog this morning in the driveway’. And he would say ‘Fine, what’s for dinner?
Ed O’Neill
328
Someday, I expect to see a television version of ‘Hamlet’ and see Hamlet come on during the intermission and hold up his sword and say ‘This is made of the same fine steel as such-and-such razor blades.’
Van Heflin
329
The sun sucks. I used to love the sun, but now I hate it because it just wants to kill everything. I always tell everyone, if you don’t want to do skin care, fine, but at least put sunscreen on. The reason why we have little freckles, skin cancer, and wrinkles is because of the sun.
Amber Liu
330
Fines are preferable to imprisonment and other types of punishment because they are more efficient. With a fine, the punishment to offenders is also revenue to the State.
Gary Becker
331
Metaphors are fine if they aid understanding, but sometimes they get in the way.
Richard Dawkins
332
With animal behavior, they’re all fine until you introduce some rogue element into the cage, and then they go crazy.
Jeanette Winterson
333
What people don’t understand is joining a gang ain’t bad, it’s cool, it’s fine. When you in the hood, joining a gang it’s cool because all your friends are in the gang, all your family’s in the gang. We’re not just killing people every night, we’re just hanging out, having a good time.
Snoop Dogg
334
Catholics have guilt and Jews have guilt, fine. But mothers can trump them all.
Diane Lane
335
I know how I like my house. I like it cute and cozy and a little funky, and I like it to feel lived in and worn, and I like the things inside of it to work. That’s all. And for me, it’s fine that my house’s interior suggests that I might not spend every waking moment thinking about how it looks.
Glennon Doyle Melton
336
I believe in believing. My coach John Kavanagh is a big atheist, and he is always trying to persuade people to his way of thinking, and I think, ‘What a waste of energy.’ If people want to believe in this god or that god, that’s fine by me; believe away. But I think we can be our own gods. I believe in myself.
Conor McGregor
337
I’ll tell you the truth: I had a double brandy before the game but, before, it used to be four bottles of whisky. Not any more. I was fine. I had a glass of wine after the game. But it was just a mouthful.
Paul Gascoigne
338
Water doesn’t hurt a vinyl record. Put it into a dishwasher and you’re fine.
Billy Gibbons
339
There’s a fine line between a stream of consciousness and a babbling brook to nowhere.
Dan Harmon
340
In the courtroom, it’s where a lawyer really becomes an actor. There’s a very fine line between delivering a monologue in a play and delivering a monologue to a jury. I’ve always felt that way – I’ve been in a lot of courtrooms. The best lawyers are really theatrical.
Woody Harrelson
341
We’re all biased, right, in many different ways – politically, religiously, ideologically, the way our family raised us – and that’s fine. Nobody wants to live in a world where everybody thinks exactly the same. The key, though, is to try to figure out where your biases are holding you back from solving problems.
Stephen J. Dubner
342
You have to know yourself so well and be able to put it on whatever display you want to put it on and be confident in that and be fine with it.
Spencer Dinwiddie
343
It seems to be that southern Europeans are just more intimate socially, whereas I like a lot of personal space – like, a mile from the nearest person is fine for me.
Peter Steele
344
But no, had I been successful in my 20s I would have been just fine. But it is nice to defy the odds.
Patricia Clarkson
345
I’m really an outdoorsy girl. People think I can’t go anywhere without getting all primped up, but I love to go camping, and I’m totally fine with not doing my hair or makeup, not taking a shower and just hiking.
Vanessa Hudgens
346
The buyer is entitled to a bargain. The seller is entitled to a profit. So there is a fine margin in between where the price is right. I have found this to be true to this day whether dealing in paper hats, winter underwear or hotels.
Conrad Hilton
347
The best effort of a fine person is felt after we have left their presence.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
348
It takes a lot of people. I would not swim if it was just me. If I didn’t have any teammates, I couldn’t stay in a pool for two hours, twice a day, nine times a week. I can’t do that. And I’m fine with admitting that. I couldn’t do this by myself.
Caeleb Dressel
349
It’s fine by me, even if I score with my hand.
Filippo Inzaghi
350
I’m never happy with the work I put in. No. I need to be told by my director and people around me that it is fine. Otherwise, I’ll even go, like, ‘One more take.’
Shraddha Kapoor
351
Obama is a fine, very impressive person. He really is. Unfortunately, everything that he is doing in economics is exactly wrong. He is a crappy president.
Arthur Laffer
352
I’m not staid and unbiased here. I have certain biases I want to convey, and if you disagree, that’s fine.
Neil Cavuto
353
You can’t do a fine thing without having seen fine examples.
William Morris Hunt
354
There’s a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.
Oscar Levant
355
Sitting beside the pool is fine for two weeks, but after that I think it’d be quite hard to live with – so I need to keep racing.
Mark Webber
356
As far as a glass ceiling, I feel that all you can do is give it your absolute best with whatever gifts the universe has given you. And if you make it in some way that other people can recognize, that’s fine. But even if you don’t quote-unquote make it, you’re fine if you’ve given it your whole heart and soul.
Alice Walker
357
We sold a certain, steady amount of product for them and they could count on it. When it came time to ask for the money for this new record, they dropped us. It was fine with us. It was a dead fish.
Gene Ween
358
I think my voice worked out fine, but it was a lot of work for me. And I was very self-conscious about it. I was a bit self-conscious about writing lyrics too.
Jerry Harrison
359
I think what I do differently from a lot of TV chefs is that I break down barriers and make fine food more accessible to the regular person, who might be intimidated. I try hard, particularly with wine, to make it not intimidating. It’s sort of a teaching job.
Ted Allen
360
Whenever I feel mom-guilt, or I feel pressure to be a better mom – to cook salmon on a bed of quinoa for my kids – I just think to myself, ‘I… have… suffered… enough.’ And then I feel fine about feeding my toddler a bag of chips for dinner.
Ali Wong
361
I can’t do it every day. They’re not going to give me much to hit right now. They’re pitching me real well. If I get there, fine.
Sammy Sosa
362
The weather and my mood have little connection. I have my foggy and my fine days within me; my prosperity or misfortune has little to do with the matter.
Blaise Pascal
363
So I continued through my next school, which takes me up to the age of 17, moving from the bottom stream of one year into the bottom stream of the next year, all the way through. I showed other talents which gave me self-respect, which is fine.
Jeremy Irons
364
If I don’t like a person and a person doesn’t like me fine, that’s mutual respect.
Larry Johnson
365
There is no such thing as immaterial matter. All spirit is matter, but is more fine or pure, and can only be discerned by purer eyes. We cannot see it, but when our bodies are purified, we shall see that it is all matter.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
366
I wonder what the most intelligent thing ever said was that started with the word ‘dude.’ ‘Dude, these are isotopes.’ ‘Dude, we removed your kidney. You’re gonna be fine.’ ‘Dude, I am so stoked to win this Nobel Prize. I just wanna thank Kevin, and Turtle, and all my homies.’
Demetri Martin
367
You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen, it said ‘Parking Fine.’ So that was nice.
Tim Vine
368
One mistake and all this attention may just disappear one fine day. So I prefer to remain grounded.
Pankaj Tripathi
369
No one who has gotten second place at a Grand Slam is ever like, ‘Yeah, now I feel fine about it.’ Everyone wants the other trophy. But it inspires you to work harder and get yourself in that position again so that you can use what you’ve learned.
Madison Keys
370
Charity is a fine thing if it’s meeting a gap where needs must be met and there are no other resources. But in the long term we need to support people into helping themselves.
Annie Lennox
371
It’s almost like while you are working for the WWF everything is fine and good, but if you are no longer employed by them they want you to just drop off the face of the earth and it’s like you never existed.
Jerry Lawler
372
If you can take my tax money and assure me that it’ll go to the right purpose, that it will help the poor, then fine. But I’m not sure a lot of it does. In fact, I know a lot of it doesn’t.
Bill Bennett
373
I was fine being in the closet at the beginning of my career because that’s what you were supposed to be – until I realized that it didn’t serve anybody, and I was left feeling utterly empty. This is who I am, so I’ve gotta be me.
Billy Porter
374
Fine dining is an occasional treat for most people.
Rene Redzepi
375
Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers.
Herbert Hoover
376
As far as my relationship with President Putin is concerned, it’s fine.
Gerhard Schroder
377
There are times that I see comments on Instagram and Twitter – if you are bashing my character on television, that is fine. I am totally cool with that. I’m a bad guy for a reason. You are supposed to hate me, but when you disrespect me or my work or myself as a character as me personally, that is not okay.
Alexa Bliss
378
I wouldn’t say Malkovich is totally insane, but he’s not living in the real world. He’s living in his world, which is a fine world to live in apparently.
Martha Plimpton
379
You will often be in despair. You will sometimes think it’s the worst decision in your life. That’s fine. That’s not a sign your marriage has gone wrong. It’s a sign that it’s normal; it’s on track. And many of the hopes that took you into the marriage will have to die in order for the marriage to continue.
Alain de Botton
380
If you rewrite a paragraph fifty times and forty-nine of them are terrible, that’s fine; you only need to get it right once.
Tana French
381
I have made the choices that work best for me. I know I cannot please everyone, and that’s fine.
Marlee Matlin
382
For too long the world has failed to recognise that the Olympic Games and the Olympic Movement are about fine athletics and fine art.
Avery Brundage
383
A fine world in which man reproaches woman with fulfilling his heart’s desire!
Karl Kraus
384
Jerry Ormand was already a legendary Texas oilman when I met him. Yet he took the time to introduce me to the fine points of the oil business and how to survive and prosper amid the chaos of a rough-and-tumble industry.
Dan Pena
385
Whoever tramples on the plea for justice temperately made in the name of peace only outrages peace and kills something fine in the heart of man which God put there when we got our manhood.
William Allen White
386
‘Fine casual’ means taking the cultural priorities that fine dining, at its best, believes in.
Danny Meyer
387
By no means do I anticipate screening those who come on to campus… And I have no difficulty if a bishop across the country or some local pastor may say that’s not Catholic teaching – that’s fine.
William P. Leahy
388
They have a fine breeze and are now we hope, well on their way.
Lewis Tappan
389
I’m not in the K-1 tournament. We thought about it but they really don’t want me as they feel I might get hurt so that’s fine with me but I do see a lot of guys out there that I feel I can take.
Larry Holmes
390
Photography is not a fine art at all.
Antony Armstrong-Jones
391
When actors are talking, they are servants of the dramatist. It is what they can show the audience when they are not talking that reveals the fine actor.
Cedric Hardwicke
392
The truth is I studied fine arts in Switzerland. I was just interested. I had no dream of being a movie star.
Sarah Carter
393
One of my good friends is Christian, goes to church every Sunday, very religious. I’m fine with that and I will never judge her.
Amber Tamblyn
394
I’m human, I’m not perfect. I make mistakes all the time, but I guess my job is to keep those mistakes to myself, which I’m already fine doing and just try to be the best I can be for those kids.
Selena Gomez
395
I’m fine, but I’m bipolar. I’m on seven medications, and I take medication three times a day. This constantly puts me in touch with the illness I have. I’m never quite allowed to be free of that for a day. It’s like being a diabetic.
Carrie Fisher
396
A man builds a fine house; and now he has a master, and a task for life: he is to furnish, watch, show it, and keep it in repair, the rest of his days.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
397
It’s so fine and yet so terrible to stand in front of a blank canvas.
Paul Cezanne
398
As long as we’re winning, I’m fine.
Aaron Donald
399
My children are all doing just fine. The mountain dogs are great in this weather. The yorkies are freezing.
Catherine Crier
400
You know, the best-laid plans of mice and men… I like playing bad guys, and I don’t have a problem doing that. They’re interesting characters, and there’s as many different kinds of bad guys as there are good guys – they’re rich, they’re strong, they’re powerful, and so that’s fine with me.
Tobin Bell
401
I think we’re a deeper team, a better team, we still have work to do… nothing is guaranteed, but hopefully we got the mentality to play on the road, and we’re starting to get our home thing back in order now-if we can do that we’ll be just fine.
Karl Malone
402
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.
Kate Moss
403
The moment I say I’m going into scooters, they say, ‘You’re crazy.’ Six months later, when BMW comes out with an electric scooter, it’s fine. But when Anand does it, because he’s some small guy in India, it’s not fine.
Anand Mahindra
404
Acting is a life experience. I’m always learning things when I’m making a movie. So the fame part of it is fine when you consider what you get out of this job.
Kate Bosworth
405
I always say that I’ll have a go and see whether the poem works and if it does, then fine.
Carol Ann Duffy
406
So you can say whatever you want and quote me however you want about politics and make the next payday, and that’s fine because I’m making that deal with you, but just mention the movie along the way, OK?
James Woods
407
I fear that many a man’s good resolutions only need the ordinary fire of daily life to make them melt away. So, too, with fine professions and the boastings of perfection which abound in this age of shams.
Charles Spurgeon
408
The Opera is obviously the first draft of a fine spectacle; it suggests the idea of one.
Jean de la Bruyere
409
The fine art of preparing sushi is something that you watch and learn.
Nobu Matsuhisa
410
I’m the most awkward person in the world, but onstage, I’m completely fine. I could run around in a thong and not care.
Pete Davidson
411
Government does not have a revenue problem; government has a spending problem. Government does not have a revenue problem; government has a priority problem. It is time that we begin to fine tune our focus and decide what the priority of government ought to be.
Marsha Blackburn
412
There are some people who only know me for cornflakes ads, and that’s fine. I have a charmed life.
Rob Brydon
413
I don’t think the Beatles were that good. I think they’re fine, you know. Ringo’s got the best backbeat I’ve ever heard… Paul is a fine bass player… but he’s a bit overpowering at times.
George Harrison
414
Looking back is a way to sharpen the focus on the things you want to change in your life. I think there’s something about nostalgia that really puts a fine point on the here-and-now, and that can be incredibly fascinating and interesting and engaging for the mind.
Sarah Paulson
415
I studied fine arts and architecture, but I decided to move into movie design because I grew up in a small town in the Marche region and spent a lot of time after school in the movie theater.
Dante Ferretti
416
I don’t have any message in the music. Music will be fine as long as you take care of yourself.
John McLaughlin
417
This morning’s scene is good and fine, Long rain has not harmed the land.
Du Fu
418
I think it’s fine for girls to ask boys out. I actually prefer it.
Zac Efron
419
Whatever happens in life is fine – just trust in that.
Orlando Bloom
420
You need to have tremendous confidence in your work, even a touch of arrogance, chutzpah. Many very fine researchers lack intellectual daring. It’s human nature to want to be cozy, secure. But that can be a cul de sac.
Vilayanur S. Ramachandran
421
Bush is a very poor impromptu speaker. He does fine in small groups but when speaking without a script in front of large groups or answering questions he wasn’t prepped for, he has problems.
Peter Schuyler
422
I lived in LA for almost nine years and if I never went back there again it would be fine.
David Cross
423
Poetry is an art, and chief of the fine art; the easiest to dabble in, the hardest in which to reach true excellence.
Edmund Clarence Stedman
424
Some fine day, Democrats may figure out how to get on the right side of the value divide – how to define America as a place of the common good and not a playground of the strong.
Todd Gitlin
425
Having a child makes you realize the importance of life – narcissism goes out the window. Heaven on earth is looking at my little boy. The minute he was born, I knew if I never did anything other than being a mom, I’d be fine.
Jenny McCarthy
426
The fact that you are willing to say, ‘I do not understand, and it is fine,’ is the greatest understanding you could exhibit.
Wayne Dyer
427
I love London and Wimbledon but the problem is that I’m not very good on grass, that was the hardest in the juniors for me, but the 02 should be fine as it’s on hard court.
Gael Monfils
428
Independent dance – and, fine, it’s a very good thing that it remains independent – is a much tougher life: all dancers expect that, and accept that there will be periods of not being able to work, provided there are choice moments during the year when they really can work.
Siobhan Davies
429
I understand what my gift is, which is making people laugh, hopefully. It’s more on that level. I don’t need to be a leading man, I’m fine with that.
Chris Kattan
430
The drawing and the crafting of the story are fun, but it’s the overall meaning that matters to me. It might escape some people who just want to read a comic, and that’s fine. The overall meaning is what matters.
Brian Michael Bendis
431
It is the eye of other people that ruin us. If I were blind I would want, neither fine clothes, fine houses or fine furniture.
Benjamin Franklin
432
Scenery is fine – but human nature is finer.
John Keats
433
Our admiration of fine writing will always be in proportion to its real difficulty and its apparent ease.
Charles Caleb Colton
434
After high school, I was going to move out to L.A. and try to pursue my dreams of acting. My parents said, ‘That’s fine. We support you, but you have to go to school,’ which was fine because I’m a studious person anyway; I enjoy it.
Josie Loren
435
I have wanted to be a fine artist painter, and I reached the point in art schools were I’d like to understand more about images and how images communicate information to people. And I was not getting very far in that from my professors.
John Hench
436
I attempted to fish in Scotland and I managed to hook a dog. It was a horrible moment but the dog turned out to be fine.
Emily Blunt
437
I never breathe through the nose, not when I’m singing. In the opera, you don’t have so much time. That’s fine at the beginning of an opera or after somebody else has been doing an aria, and you want to get a good fresh start.
Beverly Sills
438
Nothing in this life is certain aside from death, taxes and English literature graduates writing in the Guardian and spoiling your enjoyment of things you had previously thought were fine.
Ash Sarkar
439
Being a superstar… can make life very difficult, difficult to grow. So I like to visit with my friends, listen to some fine music, drink some good wine, perhaps take a ride in the country in a fine car, or… just walk along the beach.
Reggie Jackson
440
It’s been a thrilling journey – I have had to really learn that an orchestra is an entity – it’s a creature. I have been calling it the dragon and the conductor is the dragon tamer. And you just have to… ride and don’t let go and you will be fine.
Tori Amos
441
Most of the model consolidation we’ve done is behind us. There will be some fine tuning.
Rick Wagoner
442
It’s so valuable to learn that when you put yourself in an uncomfortable situation, you’ll be fine, and you’ll probably come out even stronger.
Julie Foudy
443
Acknowledging someone is an act of altruism in the first place, so converting that act of altruism into a pizza party or company fleece jacket or a gift card is fine, but it’s not in keeping with spirit in which it all began.
Charles Best
444
Naturally, when it comes to voting, we in Texas are accustomed to discerning that fine hair’s-breadth worth of difference that makes one hopeless dipstick slightly less awful than the other. But it does raise the question: Why bother?
Molly Ivins
445
Actually, we got paid because the name Fortinet is so close to Fortnite, so I’m fine with their name being close to ours.
Ken Xie
446
If no one wants to jump into a Kim Weston and drive it down the street. That’s fine with me I don’t care. I know my work is good and I know it’s serious work.
Kim Weston
447
There is nothing so agonizing to the fine skin of vanity as the application of a rough truth.
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
448
See, I was fine being bald, because I have a good-shaped head.
Brian Urlacher
449
We’re teaching our kids that attributes as vague and relatively meaningless as a toothy smile or a fine head of hair make a fine statement about a person.
Neil Cavuto
450
There is no schedule. We are all volunteers, so we get it done when we get it done. Perl 5 still works fine, and we plan to take the right amount of time on Perl 6.
Larry Wall
451
I’m not gregarious. I spend a lot of time in the parks when it is fine. I do know almost every blade of grass.
Dennis Skinner
452
I used to play ultimate Frisbee, and I just got a reputation for making popcorn at parties. I don’t mean to brag on myself, but I make the popcorn in the pot, and it comes out fine every time.
Bill Nye
453
It’s a fine line between hack and good comedy.
Jimmy O. Yang
454
I don’t know anybody who doesn’t hate being called alt.country. It just sounds like a website. I don’t mind being called Americana, I don’t mind being called country noir, or independent country is fine, but the words alt.country make me insane.
Neko Case
455
California is a fine place to live – if you happen to be an orange.
Fred Allen
456
There’s is a fine line between living one’s truth and looking good.
Amala Akkineni
457
To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment.
Jane Austen
458
I didn’t check into rehab. Instead of me heading into a place – I was just drinking too much and I needed to get my life together. I’m still in therapy and stuff like that, but it’s good. I’m great. I feel fine.
Richie Sambora
459
Honestly, if the worst these people can say about me is that I’m gay, then I think I’ll be fine. I can handle it.
Zac Efron
460
I don’t think I was a fine game coach. I’m trying to be honest. I think I was a good practice coach.
John Wooden
461
I always end up hurting myself doing something mundane. If I have to do some complicated stunt, I’m fine.
Lauren Cohan
462
If you could build a house on a trampoline, that would suit me fine.
Alan Rickman
463
That is how it stiffens, my vision of that seaside childhood. My father died; we moved inland. Whereon those nine first years of my life sealed themselves off like a ship in a bottle – beautiful, inaccessible, obsolete: a fine, white, flying myth.
Sylvia Plath
464
Misery’s fine – as long as you know you can get out of it when you want to.
Arthur Adamov
465
And so, at the age of thirty, I had successively disgraced myself with three fine institutions, each of which had made me free of its full and rich resources, had trained me with skill and patience, and had shown me nothing but forbearance and charity when I failed in trust.
Simon Raven
466
This is how I feel about cosmetic procedures and plastic surgery. If people want to do it for themselves – it’s fine. If people want to do it for the outside world, that’s when it’s not necessarily a healthy thing.
Huda Kattan
467
The royal family’s existence is a constant reminder of the hollowness of John Major’s rhetoric, and idiotic statements by its leading members a constant boost to the republican cause. They’re fine opening hospitals. It’s when they open their mouths they get into trouble.
Alastair Campbell
468
Dick Cheney said he was running again. He said his health was fine, ‘I’ve got a doctor with me 24 hours a day.’ Yeah, that’s always the sign of a man in good health, isn’t it?
David Letterman
469
Stubbornness and ignorance and determination are a very fine line from each other. I’m a very stubborn person, but not so stubborn that I can’t learn new things and meet new people, but I have a one-track mind.
Joe Nichols
470
Tact and diplomacy are fine in international relations, in politics, perhaps even in business; in science only one thing matters, and that is the facts.
Hans Eysenck
471
We put our life on the line to fight for them, put on a show and these guys take our money so whatever happens to Bob Arum, Don King or anyone else is fine with me.
Larry Holmes
472
It wasn’t until I became a mother that I started to refer to myself as an artist as opposed to a fine art photographer.
Zoe Buckman
473
I have been a waitress, and I was a damn fine waitress too, let me tell you.
Jessica Lange
474
Most great entrepreneurs I know are nothing like the other kids. They’re almost like tangent lines – those lines that seem to go nowhere. Nothing connects them, until they get out in the real world. Then they connect just fine.
Barbara Corcoran
475
I’m creative in my own life. I’m creative when I step out the door. I’m creative when I pick up a glass. Do you know what I mean? I’m one of those dreadful people who probably should have been born at the end of the 19th century and been in cafe society. That would have suited me fine.
Jaye Davidson
476
I think everybody has their own way of looking at their lives as some kind of pilgrimage. Some people will see their role as a pilgrim in terms of setting up a fine family, or establishing a business inheritance. Everyone’s got their own definition.
Eric Clapton
477
But if you’re talking about fine art work, then I think you have to ask yourself some pretty deep questions about why it is you want to take pictures and what it is you want to say.
Leonard Nimoy
478
It’s fine being stared at as a pretty girl, but not as a freak. When I tried to make myself ugly, they said, ‘Oh, she’s lost her looks.’
Ava Gardner
479
I want to continue to grow, and as long as I keep going out there doing what I’m doing and don’t fall off from what I’ve learned already as they keep adding things on, I’ll be fine.
Le’Veon Bell
480
If people want to keep their kid on their insurance at 26, fine. We’ve got to make sure no American gets turned back for pre-existing conditions, that’s fine.
Allen West
481
The so-called feminist writers were disgusted with me. I did my thing, and so I guess by feminist standards I’m a feminist. That suits me fine.
Chrissie Hynde
482
I take time to open up with people. But once I know you, I’m fine. I’m a shy person.
Sushant Singh Rajput
483
I wouldn’t ever pose naked… I’m fine to do bikinis and certainly lingerie if I feel it’s done tastefully… cute like Victoria’s Secret, but nothing like raunchy or overly sexual.
Hailey Baldwin
484
A lady is smarter than a gentleman, maybe, she can sew a fine seam, she can have a baby, she can use her intuition instead of her brain, but she can’t fold a paper in a crowded train.
Phyllis McGinley
485
The big print giveth, and the fine print taketh away.
Fulton J. Sheen
486
Why don’t we focus on what Afghan women can do? They can cook, bear children and pray. As I recall, that was fine for our grandmothers.
Al Franken
487
What strikes me is that there’s a very fine line between success and failure. Just one ingredient can make the difference.
Andrew Lloyd Webber
488
You can only avoid responsibility for so long. The catalyst ended up being the law coming down and finally saying, ‘You guys suspended judgement and that’s fine, because we’re not.’
Rosario Dawson
489
My mom was on welfare and the occasional food stamp, but I have never participated in any of those governmental programs, even the ones that kind of work like education, scholarships and whatever, and I managed to do just fine.
Adam Carolla
490
Because bankers measure their self-worth in money, and pay themselves a lot of it, they think they’re fine fellows and don’t need to explain themselves.
James Buchan
491
The weather was fine and moderate. The hunters all returned, having killed during their absence three elk, four deer, two porcupines, a fox and a hare.
Meriwether Lewis
492
It is a fine thing to be honest, but it is also very important to be right.
Winston Churchill
493
Many a dangerous temptation comes to us in gay, fine colours, that are but skin-deep.
Matthew Henry
494
Confidence is not, ‘They will like me’. Confidence instead is, ‘I’ll be fine if they don’t’.
Christina Grimmie
495
Though a quarrel in the streets is a thing to be hated, the energies displayed in it are fine; the commonest man shows a grace in his quarrel.
John Keats
496
Joy doesn’t betray but sustains activism. And when you face a politics that aspires to make you fearful, alienated and isolated, joy is a fine initial act of insurrection.
Rebecca Solnit
497
I’m fine the way I am. There’s nothing wrong with me.
Janet Jackson
498
Young people have decided they like to listen to music in a certain way, through ear buds, and that’s fine with me as long as it doesn’t bother them that they’re not hearing 90 percent of the music that way.
Prince
499
Protests are fine. But in South Carolina we believe in the rule of law, and the people of this state should never doubt that as governor, I will enforce it.
Nikki Haley
500
She said ‘I’m by commission. You don’t have to pay anything until you sell anything.’ I said, ‘Well fine. You want to be my agent and not make anything.’ I thought, ‘Boy, is she dumb.’
Amy Tan
501
Stick with your heart and you’ll be fine.
Paul Westerberg
502
Oh, how fine it is to know a thing or two.
Moliere
503
I feel fine about getting older because I’m in good shape. I’m 64 and I feel good.
Ed Harris
504
If someone says Wes Anderson is an auteur, I’ll believe it 100 percent. Fine. He’s an auteur, but I’m not.
Alex Garland
505
If I only get eight carries, and we win the game, I’m fine with that.
Le’Veon Bell
506
The music and everything we’re doing on the stage and on television backs itself up. If that’s what gets people’s curiosity going or brings their attention to us, that’s fine.
Tina Yothers
507
As long as everyone around me is comfortable and we have a roof over our heads and we’re eating, then it’s fine and I can go off and do whatever I want.
AJ Tracey
508
It is a fine game to play – the game of politics – and it is well worth waiting for a good hand before really plunging.
Winston Churchill
509
It is a fine thing to have ability, but the ability to discover ability in others is the true test.
Lou Holtz
510
Sometimes I wish that I could go into a time machine right now and just look at my self and say, ‘Calm down. Things are gonna be fine. Things are gonna be all great. Just relax.’
Tristan Wilds
511
Give us that grand word ‘woman’ once again, and let’s have done with ‘lady’; one’s a term full of fine force, strong, beautiful, and firm, fit for the noblest use of tongue or pen; and one’s a word for lackeys.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
512
At the end of the day, Mitt Romney and Ann Romney are two fine people.
Lindsey Graham
513
I still get really nervous, though, before each performance. It kind of hits about 15 minutes before we go onstage – sometimes I don’t even want to go on. But once I’m onstage I’m fine.
Alison Lohman
514
In 2012, the Supreme Court upheld President Obama’s overreaching mandate that forces every American to purchase health insurance or face a fine.
Blake Farenthold
515
My mom was a shopaholic. She can literally never wear the same thing twice. That’s fine with me.
Adam F. Goldberg
516
A-POC respects that there is a fine balance between the value of the human touch, which can be called artisanal, and the abilities of technology. I like to think of it as poesy and technology.
Issey Miyake
517
I see potential in everything. It’s about opening your mind to what you can do to the garment: because they’re cheap, you can cut them or stitch them, and if you stuff it up, it’s fine – it’s only two dollars.
Abbey Lee Kershaw
518
I think I’ll be fine in New York. If I could stay here and just get jobs in New York, that would be fine and that’s what I’d want to do. I don’t want to move.
Jason Mewes
519
If someone wants to sticker a record for whatever reason, that’s fine. But once it affects someone’s opportunity to, you know, get that record, then I have a problem with it.
Scott Ian
520
Sometimes, there’s a fine line between bravery and utter stupidity. The day I decided to climb into a boxing ring for a professional fight was probably on the side of stupidity.
Andrew Flintoff
521
Touch screen voting is a fine thing so long as they have a voter-verified paper trail.
Joan Blades
522
If I could have gone on describing to you the beauties of this region, who knows but I might have made a fine addition to the literature of our age?
Robert Gould Shaw
523
If somebody wants to think of me as a movie star, that’s fine, that’s great. It sort of makes me giggle.
Sissy Spacek
524
If someone asked, ‘What are your films like?,’ the best I can come up with is that they’re, like, a fine balance between comedy and drama. And they deal mainly with the clumsiness of humanity.
Taika Waititi
525
The CNN international is a different service – it is even more leftist and anti-American than CNN is. That’s their business, that’s fine, but it can’t be getting any revenue. There is no cable network that I know of anywhere in the world other than in America that pays them for their products.
Rupert Murdoch
526
There’s a fine line between angry and grumpy. Angry isn’t nice, but grumpy is funny.
Rick Wakeman
527
I don’t think we have a surplus of fine educators in this country that we can just start dropping them for no reason whatsoever.
Ron White
528
I want to play a role of a 24-year-old woman, not 17-year-old girls. So I have picked a couple of films like ‘Butter’ to show that. And it’s perfectly fine not to do anything for a year if I don’t find the right thing.
Ashley Greene
529
That was a pretty fine Army that we had in 1965. By 1973, it was in tatters. It was a disgrace to the country and to itself, to its own heritage, really. So it’s, you know, the Army belongs to all 307 million of us. It is our common possession, it’s our common heritage. As goes the Army, so goes the republic.
Rick Atkinson
530
I would have been a fine orthodontist.
Ainsley Earhardt
531
A lot of medicines are not there to cure diseases. That’s fine – drugs that keep people alive who wouldn’t otherwise be alive are useful. What I object to is the drug companies’ advertising, which you see everywhere in the U.S., which claims that they are curing diseases when they’re not.
Richard J. Roberts
532
We get angry about the small things sometimes, I feel, so that we feel like we’re doing something, so that we don’t have to tackle the big things. And it’s fine; let people do that. But I’m not gonna now change because of that. You know? Like, the worst thing that happens to me is you don’t like me. And then what?
Trevor Noah
533
Proof that they do not understand the republic is that in their fine promises for universal suffrage, they forgot women.
Delphine de Girardin
534
The line between failure and success is so fine that we scarcely know when we pass it: so fine that we are often on the line and do not know it.
Elbert Hubbard
535
If you just have a single problem to solve, then fine, go ahead and use a neural network. But if you want to do science and understand how to choose architectures, or how to go to a new problem, you have to understand what different architectures can and cannot do.
Marvin Minsky
536
I like to cook, walk on the beach, go to concerts and look at fine art.
Fran Drescher
537
I’m not a very fancy person. I’ve been a writer a long time, and right now ‘The Hunger Games’ is getting a lot of focus. It’ll pass. The focus will be on something else. It’ll shift. It always does. And that seems just fine.
Suzanne Collins
538
Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together.
John Ruskin
539
I crammed my exams in London and did fine.
Rhona Mitra
540
It’s fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.
Bill Gates
541
I live on good soup, not on fine words.
Moliere
542
I came out to my parents when I was a junior in college. And it was pretty fine. They were more concerned with why I wasn’t dating anyone. But now I’m 36, and I still don’t date anyone.
Billy Eichner
543
Is our desire for partnership just an evolutionary remainder, a Togetherness Delusion, where millions of women only think they need a relationship to be truly happy? Maybe. But you know what? That’s fine with me.
Tracy McMillan
544
I know I’m not everyone’s taste and that’s fine, and that is the beauty of digital and radio that you can find what you want to listen to.
Zoe Ball
545
Some of my colleagues argue that by further curtailing our Second Amendment rights, they can enhance public safety. Fine, the burden of proof is on them.
John Kennedy
546
There’s a fine line between something saving you time and replacing a bit of you that could be useful. I’ve certainly become more and more aware of that.
Emily Berrington
547
The staple of our Australian colonies, but more particularly of New South Wales, the climate and the soil of which are peculiarly suited to its production, – is fine wool.
Charles Sturt
548
People will always try to change you. They will always want you to be who they want you to be. That’s fine because I’ll always be exactly who I want to be.
Draymond Green
549
London has fine museums, the British Library is one of the greatest library institutions in the world… It’s got everything you want, really.
David Attenborough
550
I think there’s a fine, healthy tradition of, you know, the people on the fringes satirizing the process of Hollywood.
Tim Heidecker
551
It takes eight to nine months for a Berluti client to get a pair of custom-made shoes and it’s fine. I was always against see now/buy now, as I don’t think it’s relevant to what we do and is not a good image of luxury.
Antoine Arnault
552
My professional acting life, stage and screen, has brought me public support, emotional fulfillment and material comfort. It has brought me together with fine people, good companions with whom I’ve shared the inevitable lot of all actors: flops and hits.
Peter O’Toole
553
I don’t turn to greeting cards for wisdom and advice, but they are a fine reflection of the general drift of the culture.
Susan Orlean
554
We are pragmatists. We don’t stick to any ideology. Does it work? Let’s try it, and if it does work, fine, let’s continue it. If it doesn’t work, toss it out, try another one. We are not enamored with any ideology.
Lee Kuan Yew
555
See, if there is zero possessiveness in a relationship, then one needs to put a reality check to see if things are really going fine. So, normally, everyone is a bit possessive, and so am I.
Kunal Khemu
556
Ronald Reagan had many fine qualities and he had many shortcomings. He’s not the simple, folksy figure that he’s often portrayed as.
Eugene Jarecki
557
I sort of enjoy the fact that I’m misunderstood most of the time. That’s fine.
Billie Joe Armstrong
558
I think there’s a very fine line on guys saying stuff because you don’t want to be disrespectful. That’s not the point of it. But you also do need to – there’s nothing wrong with saying what’s on your mind.
Justin Thomas
559
I’ll be having lunch with my mum and she’ll complain about the paparazzi outside. I tell her that she could have worn a beanie, but of course she never does. She loves it – it’s how she chooses to connect with people. That’s fine, I can respect that. But I’m the opposite. I always have been.
Aimee Osbourne
560
I opened the large central window of my office room to its full on the fine early May morning. Then I stood for a few moments, breathing in the soft, warm air that was charged with the scent of white lilacs below.
Angus Wilson
561
I think that the status that you have in life should be reflected in official documents. If you are married, fine, if you are living with someone, fine, if you are single, fine. We don’t want to tell people how to live their lives.
Iain Duncan Smith
562
I make music, and if anyone wants to dislike it because of my logo, or lack thereof, then fine by me.
Varg Vikernes
563
I feel like I’d like to continue putting out records and start putting them out more rapidly than I have until now and for me if I can keep selling the records to the fans that already like me that’s fine.
John Frusciante
564
I definitely think we get a lot of respect for what we do, but I definitely think that some people don’t like us, which is fine.
Matt Stone
565
Jesus never said a word about homosexuality. In all of his teachings about multiple things – he never said that gay people should be condemned. I personally think it is very fine for gay people to be married in civil ceremonies.
Jimmy Carter
566
I am somebody who… – I’m not saying I’m perfect, but I need that freedom, that ability to make mistakes out there. Because there’s a fine line between making a mistake or being brilliant.
Tiffeny Milbrett
567
Skimming is fine for our emails, but it’s not fine for some of the important forms of reading.
Maryanne Wolf
568
A simple caricature, a simple sketch – that’s fine. There’s nothing wrong with that. But if you draw up a caricature… if you associate that subject with the things you’re not supposed to, then, of course, you can’t expect that to be acceptable.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
569
I’m not saying I didn’t have ample time to recover, ample time to get to my best, I felt this year I did fine. When I stepped on the field for the national team, I was ready and able to make an impact, to score goals, to create chances.
Tiffeny Milbrett
570
There are absolutely no problems between me, my dad and my sister. Obviously I grew up with just my mum, but my relationship with my dad is just fine.
Norah Jones
571
The Bill of Rights isn’t some legalistic fine print. It was written to make our lives freer, more prosperous, and happier. By forsaking it, America has become no better than any other country in the world.
Harry Browne
572
I think everybody has their own way of looking at their lives as some kind of pilgrimage. Some people will see their role as a pilgrim in terms of setting up a fine family, or establishing a business inheritance. Everyone’s got their own definition. Mine, I suppose, is to know myself.
Eric Clapton
573
Where I’ve arrived now is the product of mixing the very straight with the very exploratory; there’s a fine line between the two, although it tends to be getting straighter and straighter because my songwriting is getting better.
Andy Partridge
574
Young women should be telling stories of other young women. And if the superstar who is an amazing storyteller isn’t a writer, that’s totally fine, but we should get a young female writer in the room to work on that song with us.
Justin Tranter
575
‘Infernal Affairs’ is really amazing and was a really popular movie. I would be fine with playing any character in the movie.
Gong Yoo
576
I have rarely seen the face of a mechanic in the action of creation which was not fine, never one which was not earnest and impressive.
Thomas Nelson Page
577
There are many times when a woman will ask another girl friend how she likes her new hat. She will reply, ‘Fine,’ but slap her hand to her forehead the minute the girl leaves to yipe, ‘What a horror!’
Marilyn Monroe
578
I’m not interested in becoming a bigger star, I’m not interested in being the wealthiest guy in the world. I’m doing fine, I love acting, and I want to do it for the rest of my life.
Seth Green
579
I often lay on that bench looking up into the tree, past the trunk and up into the branches. It was particularly fine at night with the stars above the tree.
Georgia O’Keeffe
580
One fine day I discovered that more complex plays really have to be directed.
Trevor Nunn
581
Nature doesn’t need people – people need nature; nature would survive the extinction of the human being and go on just fine, but human culture, human beings, cannot survive without nature.
Harrison Ford
582
Labels only confuse people. The smarter people recognize artists who transcend categories. But I always try to entertain. It’s in my nature; writers are born to entertain. If that means working ostensibly within a genre, fine.
John Shirley
583
I get along fine with the press.
Kevin Pietersen
584
With my team I am an absolute czar. My men know it. I order plays and they obey. If the don’t, I fine them.
John McGraw
585
But there’s a difference between having artistic interests and being psychotic. That’s more than a fine line of differentiation, and I do see that a bit too much.
Crispin Glover
586
Do people have an idea of who they think I am? Yes, and that’s fine with me. My music will speak for itself.
Jamie Lynn Spears
587
What keeps you going isn’t some fine destination but just the road you’re on, and the fact that you know how to drive.
Barbara Kingsolver
588
Theaters are always going to be around, and doing fine. With computers and technology, we’re becoming more and more secluded from each other. And the movie theater is one of the last places where we can still gather and experience something together. I don’t think the desire for that magic will ever go away.
Wolfgang Petersen
589
I went to University of Illinois team camp. And that was a big deal for me. I got MVP of the camp, but they offered another kid from the camp, which was fine. I laughed with the couple coaches I know who were there at the time, who were part of recruiting the other guy.
Aaron Rodgers
590
I graduated from college with a 3.92 GPA with a degree in computer programming and a BFA in fine arts and animation. My first job was painting a mural in the Grimaldi’s in Queens.
JWoww
591
Often, when art from the canon is brought in to fine art classes, it is used as a prop to inspire art-making projects but more rarely as something to study in-depth for itself.
Munira Mirza
592
Sometimes I’m so tired, I look down at what I’m wearing, and if it’s comfortable enough to sleep in, I don’t even make it into my pajamas. I’m looking down, and I’m like, ‘T-shirt and stretchy pants? Yup, that’s fine. It’s pajama-y, good night.’
Rebecca Romijn
593
I look fine. I’ve had no surgery apart from an operation I had decades ago to remove the fat under my eyes. My mum looked 30 when she was 60, so I guess I owe it all to genes and hair dye.
David Cassidy
594
People are always saying that Hollywood messes up kids. I’m like, ‘No, families mess up kids!’ I grew up in Hollywood, and I’m perfectly fine. If my children want to go into the entertainment business, I won’t stop them, as long as they’re passionate about it.
Tori Spelling
595
I cannot write poetically, for I am no poet. I cannot make fine artistic phrases that cast light and shadow, for I am no painter. I can neither by signs nor by pantomime express my thoughts and feelings, for I am no dancer; but I can by tones, for I am a musician.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
596
There is a fine line between being glamorous and vulgar. I am open to glam roles as long as they don’t look vulgar on screen.
Aishwarya Rajesh
597
Anything that brings people to see Shakespeare is fine by me. He’s the great humanist.
Ray Fearon
598
Bernstein grew up in my building in New York. He’s a very, very fine player. When he was a kid, he came by to find out what was going on in the world of jazz.
Lee Konitz
599
I’ve always said money may buy you a fine dog, but only love can make it wag its tail.
Kinky Friedman
