The poem is not, as someone put it, deflective of entry.

Basic Instinct 2′ is an uneasy experience because, although it is hyper-reflexive to the point where it is hard to think of one character, one scene, one plot twist that isn’t a reference or an echo, there is nothing knowing about it.

Ricky Washington is from a Baptist church in Miami, Florida, and he can pretty much sing anything. We just started working it up at soundcheck, and holy smokes, it’s just great!

Kimbo Slice
100
Just do some kind of workout. Doesn’t matter if it’s going for a walk around the block, going for a jog, doing some calisthenics, lifting weights, going to a pool and swimming – you name it. But do something that gets your blood flowing and gets your mind in the game.
Jocko Willink
101
History shows the power-grab in every religion once it gets organised. And then it’s people making you do things that you don’t agree with and setting the rules. But it does mean something to me to believe that we are not alone – the human animal is quite a scary thing, left on its own.
Margrethe Vestager
102

I wanted to be the guy you can’t figure out.’
Brad Paisley
111
In my position when things are going well it’s pretty easy to say that I’m sort of the guy that fixes everything. But if things are going bad then I’m the one that gets all the blame. In the end, we all do it together.
Virgil van Dijk
112
Everyone gets surprised because neither one of my parents play golf. Like I said in my speech, my aunt and uncle really love golf, and we visited them, and she gave me two clubs. Like people think when they don’t know who my dad is, they think he’s my coach.

113
You get yourself up for it somehow, and your endurance and the crowd gets you up, too.
Janet Jackson
114
I’ve had people hate me for my appearance. I think it gets me a certain level of empathy with the audience. If I was white and handsome and privileged, I probably couldn’t talk about what I talk about because people wouldn’t believe that I have empathy or I could be evenhanded and objective. It’s strange.
Ralphie May
115
I liked how ‘Star Wars’ felt both old and new. I even built a model of R2-D2, taking about two months mixing two kits to make one that looked just like the real thing. I’m the kind of person who gets really into it when I do something like that.
Akira Toriyama
116
Everybody gets opportunities; what you do with them is up to you.

117
My dad always said, ‘Champ, the measure of a man is not how often he is knocked down, but how quickly he gets up.’
Joe Biden
118
The concept of minimum wage is crazy, if you really stop to think about it. If $8 an hour seems right, why not $20 an hour? If it’s coming by order of the government, why stop at any level? Why not just say everyone should get what Gates gets?
Malcolm Wallop
119
If you are a creative person, then your mind gets sharper with age. My mind is very sharp, and I am happy for that.

Robert Graves
122

Mae Jemison
123
I’m at the point now where I know I’m doing something right when a movie gets mixed reviews, because then I’m not in the box. I don’t want to make it too easy for people and I don’t want to make it too easy for myself. I want to try something unusual.
Nicolas Cage
124

Dick Strawbridge
125
I have the distinct feeling that when I’m old, and I look back on my life, my thirties will be one huge blur. There’s a lot that gets neglected: exercise, dishes, laundry, my poor garden. I try to prioritize the important but non-urgent things over the unimportant but urgent things.
Rebecca Makkai
126
One of the great joys of life is creativity. Information goes in, gets shuffled about, and comes out in new and interesting ways.
Peter McWilliams
127
Fame legitimizes. Being conspicuous gets confused with being illustrious.
Nina Easton

Kailash Satyarthi
133
Everything that gets born dies.
Morrie Schwartz

Unions are the result of profit seekers. Unions are the way the average guy gets even with evil corporateers. The unions are godsends. The unions have a special status, because they represent the rising up of the average man against the evil corporateers and profiteers.
Rush Limbaugh
135
Playwriting gets into your blood and you can’t stop it. At least not until the producers or the public tell you to.

Charlie Munger
137
Prior to ‘Action’ and ‘Justice League 1,’ there was no label ‘superhero’ for a superpowered being. It’s really the emergence of Superman and the Justice League that gets the public comfortable with the idea of people amongst us who have extraordinary power and that they’ve agreed to be our champions.
Jim Lee
138
We don’t put gender roles on our marriage and our relationship. If I’m working a lot and Cory’s home, he will put Cree to bed, and if dishes need to be washed, he will wash them. So it’s not like, ‘Oh, I’m going to wait until my wife gets home, and she’s going to be doing all that.’

Jeremy Paxman
143

Quintus Ennius
144

Travis Bradberry
145
I have the same bedroom I’ve always had. It’s clean and tidy when I get home, and after two or three days it gets messy and my mother nags me.
Rafael Nadal
146
I definitely strive towards something I think of as a hallucination of music. That’s always been the OPN vibe. I think of it as mostly a felt thing, and a koan of feeling that is shared between me and OPN fans. We know what it is when it gets there.
Oneohtrix Point Never
147
A good feeling for me is when you train, and then you put on fresh clothes. New clothes after a training session – you have this rush of endorphins from exercise that everybody gets, and then you get that nice feeling of fresh clothes. It’s a double whammy.
Conor McGregor
148
I think Taeyang developed this image as a dancing singer, mostly because of records like ‘Only Look At Me,’ and ‘Where U At.’ To me, personally, I think Taeyang tried to make a change on ‘I Need a Girl.’ It gets a little mellower.
G-Dragon
149
In local government, it’s very clear to your customers – your citizens – whether or not you’re delivering. Either that pothole gets filled in, or it doesn’t. The results are very much on display, and that creates a very healthy pressure to innovate.
Pete Buttigieg
150
Often, we feel helpless in lots of situations in our lives. The way anger gets a grip on us is it seems to be a way to extricate ourselves from helplessness.
Martha Nussbaum

Salespeople are the most important people in any organization. Until a salesperson gets an order, nobody in the company has a job.
Chris Gardner
152
In my view, product/market fit is the most important thing to get right as a startup entrepreneur. There’s a variety of ways to do it, but without solving some pain point that the customer gets so excited about they tell their friends, it’s really hard in the modern age to get any liftoff.
Scott Cook
153
A good commentator is someone who obviously people like listening to, who gets the blend between description, entertainment and accuracy of conveying the event right. If you can do that in an interesting way, you are a good commentator.
Jonathan Agnew
154
A boot-camp class that combines upper- and lower-body moves – like walking lunges and push-ups – gets the heart rate up quickly, burning fat and calories and toning muscles in a time-efficient way.
David Kirsch
155
When truth has no burning, then it is philosophy, when it gets burning from the heart, it becomes poetry.
Muhammad Iqbal
156
Repeating, trying to repeat success – it never gets easier.
Aaron Judge
157
You can’t tell the story of a 13-year-old boy who knows every lyric to ‘Phantom of the Opera’ without also referencing how much teasing he gets at school.
Tim Federle
158
Communication, that keeps everything cool. Not holding anything back, you got to tell each other what’s on your mind, that’s really it. Otherwise when one gets mad at one, it can burst and you just let it out and it can just come out wrong.

Baseball is like driving, it’s the one who gets home safely that counts.
Tommy Lasorda

I always say that practice gets you to the top most of the time.
David Beckham

As life goes on, life just gets harder.
B. J. Penn
162
You’re only as old as you feel, and I feel pretty young. I’ve got one gear, and till it gets reversed, I’m going all out.
A.J. Styles
163
Everyone gets in a bad mood at some point – a striker because there is allegedly a new striker on the way, the same for a midfielder.
Gennaro Gattuso
164
Nobody gets excited about the future at all, ever. The future is something we find depressing and worrisome.
Bill Bryson
165
The whole social media thing is ridiculous. Everybody gets to say what they want all the time. That’s fine in theory, but it’s not civilised. Imagine going into a bar, and everybody in that bar is talking like people do online. They’d just get their teeth punched in.
Floor Jansen
166
The world gets better every day – then worse again in the evening.
Kin Hubbard
167
I’m actually quite a nice person. It’s to do with the way I look, an uncompromising sort of face, brusque delivery and voice, and I think the combination of all that. When I’m doing pantomime, children will scream the place down before I open my mouth. There’s obviously something that really gets them.
Kate O’Mara
168
It’s the poignancy and sadness in things that gets to me.
Tracey Ullman
169
Macklemore gets a Grammy over Kendrick Lamar. I still can’t get over that. But again, it’s not Macklemore’s fault. It’s the way of the country.
Ato Essandoh
170
My dog doesn’t worry about the meaning of life. She may worry if she doesn’t get her breakfast, but she doesn’t sit around worrying about whether she will get fulfilled or liberated or enlightened. As long as she gets some food and a little affection, her life is fine.
Joko Beck
171
Nothing gets a bigger laugh than when you refer to things like ethics or human rights.
Ron Silver
172
When I talk about that Apple ecosystem, the ability to get one application to run across those five platforms is very difficult. In the future of Microsoft, using HTML5, IE9 and 10, the scalable OS, the ability to do that gets much, much easier.
B. Kevin Turner
173
When the going gets tough, I’m not always sure what you do. I’m not saying that I know how to fix everything when the going gets tough, but I do know this: when the going goes tough, you don’t quit. And you don’t fold up. And you don’t go in the other direction.
John Madden
174
If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
Steve Jobs
175
That’s something I loved growing up – the other team yelling, hyped, student section, all of that gets me going.
Kevin Knox
176
Recording studios are interesting; a lot of people say – and I agree – that you should have a lot of wood in a recording studio. It gets a kind of a sweeter sound.
Paul Allen
177
Before the child ever gets to school it will have received crucial, almost irrevocable sex education and this will have been taught by the parents, who are not aware of what they are doing.
Mary Calderone
178
If the beat gets to the audience, and the message touches them, you’ve got a hit.
Casey Kasem
179
The Lord gets his best soldiers out of the highlands of affliction.
Charles Spurgeon
180
Okay, so, sometimes in life, I can be a score-keeper – someone who keeps track of what he gives and what he gets in return. An annoying quality, to say the least, and I’m sure my wife has your sympathy, but it’s made me highly attuned to when and where credit is due.
Mark Feuerstein
181
There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.
Leonard Cohen
182
When someone gets a success, and we, too, have done good work and sometimes even better work than the person who has just triumphed, we wonder: ‘Why did success pass me by?’
Akhil Sharma
183
I think I’m learning to be bolder in my career choices and be more confident in my personal life. I haven’t always felt very secure as an individual, but now I feel I certain confidence and sense of self that gets me through the day a lot better than before.
Winona Ryder
184
I try to greet my friends with a drink in my hand, a warm smile on my face, and great music in the background, because that’s what gets a dinner party off to a fun start.
Ina Garten
185
It gets a bit boring talking about the same thing for a hundred years.
Nicholas Winton
186
If the FBI gets the ‘back doors’ it wants, Internet services would be required to create a massive online infrastructure for law enforcement to spy on members of the public.
Adam Cohen
187
My father told me ‘Name your price in the beginning. If it ever gets more expensive than the price you name, get out of there.’
Dave Chappelle
188
The more versatile you make yourself, the more work you get. Training makes you more versatile and ultimately gets you more work. Julliard taught me that.
Ving Rhames
189
Let the free market for wireless services and devices flourish. If the government gets out of the way, the wireless marketplace will continue to be an American success story.
Ajit Pai
190
Everyone gets depressed. But what do you do? You just go through it.
Lemmy
191
Art is always criticized and always an outsider gets the blame.
Ville Valo
192
A director is the captain of the ship; he gets the vision of the film much before anyone else can. While I want to experiment with characters, I know a good director means I am in safe hands.
Koel Mallick
193
Generally speaking, I’m a jeans, T-shirt and boots man but I do own an Armani suit, which gets a regular outing. It’s nothing fancy – just a classic, well-cut suit with clean lines and beautiful tailoring. It’s timeless and you can mix and match it with anything to dress up or dress down.
Matthew Rhys
194
Successful entrepreneurs develop products that inspire their passion. They have to. It’s that passion that gets them through the long, arduous, uncertain and frightening early days of a start-up.
Mitch Kapor
195
Athletics keeps us healthy, gets us up and running around. It also gives you an opportunity to meet a lot of different people, which is very important.
Derek Jeter
196
The older you get the stronger the wind gets – and it’s always in your face.
Pablo Picasso
197
Basically, I wear sandals, like Jesus. When it gets cold in Chicago, the snow way up to my knees, I still wear my sandals. But that’s me.
Mr. T
198
Government always finds a need for whatever money it gets.
Ronald Reagan
199
I feel that there’s a lot of would-be guardians of the culture who think that high-minded literary purpose and the life that gets chronicled in the gossip columns, that these two things are incompatible.
Jay McInerney
200
Alzheimer’s is literally killing us, and the only way to fight this ‘crime’ is through a groundswell of people who continue to raise their voices and funds to ensure it gets the attention it deserves.
Tess Gerritsen
201
The victor will be the one who gets the most voters out.
Charles B. Rangel
202
I think of it as a good opportunity to let, in particular, school kids know that this job and other interesting jobs in science and engineering are open to anyone who works hard in school and gets a good education and studies math and science. And that it’s not just for a select group of people.
Ellen Ochoa
203
Sometimes, a remix is good because it reaches a whole new generation. But when it gets too much, it’s irritating. Also, the original composer needs to be credited properly.
A. R. Rahman
204
Money is just a way to keep score. The best people in any field are motivated by passion. That becomes more true the higher the skill level gets.
Eric S. Raymond
205
Rules about public sanitation are a simple and familiar example. Without them, a city can’t be a healthy place to live; but these rules don’t just happen. The rules for a city are different from the ones for a village, but as a village slowly gets bigger, a city may be stuck with the rules of the village.
Paul Romer
206
The longer you work here, diverse it gets.
Scott Adams
207
I like to work out every day. I run, walk, do machines. I’m not neurotic about food. My rule is, don’t let yourself get over a certain weight. If you gain 5lb, stop before it gets worse.
Andie MacDowell
208
Nobody gets argued all the way into becoming a believer on the sheer basis of logic and reason. That requires a leap of faith.
Francis Collins
209
One of the few advantages to not being beautiful is that one usually gets better-looking as one gets older; I am, in fact, at this very moment, gaining my looks.
Jane Lynch
210
I hate being clean-shaven. My daughter gets very upset if I shave and says, ‘Bring back the spikes, Dad.’
Eric Bana
211
I’m not someone who gets to play The O2 and places like that, but that’s the kind of rock and roll venue. The popularity of stand-up means that some people are getting to play rock star venues.
Tim Vine
212
Women who wear kimonos, when the fight, they have to keep their knees together, and when they use a sword, they have to move the sleeves otherwise it gets caught.
Lucy Liu
213
At a car dealership, the person who sells the car is the hero, and also gets the commission. But if the mechanics don’t service that car well, the customer won’t return.
Roger Staubach
214
I don’t think Africa gets as much credit as it should have on the world stage. People tend to think of us as coming from The Dark Continent, where nothing good goes on. That’s not true. A huge amount of, as I say, entrepreneurship goes on.
Nicky Oppenheimer
215
There’s no medals for trying. This isn’t like eighth grade where everybody gets a trophy. We are in a professional sport, and it is competitive to win. That’s what we do.
Bill Belichick
216
People believe that forensics these days is the answer to everything and because we believe so ardently that forensics can lead us to the criminal we’re also a bit nonplussed when someone gets in there and manipulates forensics to their advantage.
Adrian Dunbar
217
Look around at things that just aren’t getting done. Maybe there’s a project you could tackle. Maybe there’s an issue that always gets back-burnered for other priorities. Challenge yourself to take on those difficult assignments. They’re learning opportunities, and you have a chance to change something for the better.
Doug McMillon
218
Maybe I’m the only footballer who isn’t interested in cars. My Lancia Y gets me around.
Gianluigi Buffon
219
The Law of Raspberry Jam: the wider any culture is spread, the thinner it gets.
Alvin Toffler
220
As we mature and grow older we collect a lot of baggage, and a lot of that stuff you collect on life’s journey gets in the way of acting. My kids can imagine a character and transform in the blink of an eye. It’s so simple for kids, so complex for adults.
David Wenham
221
I mean, any time an actress gets to work with another actress, it’s like, ‘Oh, there are two of us in a movie! How are you? Let’s sit in the hair chair together!’ We’re lonely women.
Jennifer Garner
222
Millions of guys play millions of basketball games every day of the week at the playground or the YMCA. But LeBron James gets $20 million a year because he can jam on all of those guys. We’re always going to want to see LeBron and Kobe go at it.
Adam Carolla
223
Finishing second in the Olympics gets you silver. Finishing second in politics gets you oblivion.
Richard M. Nixon
224
One thing that I find very unmotivating is the kind of Plan B argument: when Earth gets destroyed, you want to be somewhere else. That doesn’t work for me. We have sent robotic probes now to every place in the solar system, and this is the best one.
Jeff Bezos
225
Be strong and follow your own convictions. You can’t assume there is a lot of time to do what you like. This is what David Bowie is afraid of: that he will die before he gets a chance to make a real strong contribution.
Marc Bolan
226
Every young person gets so excited about new software packages and new technology.
John Lasseter
227
Usher is amazing. He’s perfection to me as a performer. He gets down.
Ciara
228
If I’m a guy reading a newspaper, and I hear this actor who I know gets great seats at basketball games, and he’s complaining about being typecast, I think, ‘Hey man, count your blessings.’
Peter Falk
229
Nobody gets a nervous breakdown or a heart attack from selling kerosene to gentle country folk from the back of a tanker in Somerset.
Roald Dahl
230
There’s just something about BJ Penn that gets people amped up. You don’t know what’s going to happen but something is going to happen. He might disappoint you, make you happy, make you cry or make you jump out of your chair, but he’ll do something to you.
B. J. Penn
231
He comes to London and gets a job in a nightclub, a gay club, where he’s known as Straight Dave by the bar staff – and no one believes he’s as straight as he claims to be. He meets the daughter of the club manager, and he has an affair with her.
Neil Tennant
232
What happens when the guy who runs the reactor gets out of bed wrong or decides, for some reason, that he wants to override his instruction sheet some afternoon?
David R. Brower
233
I don’t understand why some people will only accept a guitar if it has an instantly recognizable guitar sound. Finding ways to use the same guitar people have been using for 50 years to make sounds that no one has heard before is truly what gets me off.
Jeff Beck
234
Relationship humour gets the most laughs. If I’m able to get the women laughing, men will have to laugh along because they would be scared to death.
Vir Das
235
I am for anyone that will give me lower taxes, stop all this stupid spending. Whoever promises me that gets this chicken’s vote.
Joan Rivers
236
I’ve definitely done things to change my behaviour. There are certain things you can’t do when you get to a certain level in what you do. When it gets to a certain time, you’re a story to somebody. It is something I have taken on board.
Ben Stokes
237
By the time a man gets to be presidential material, he’s been bought ten times over.
Gore Vidal
238
The better the actor I am acting with, the better my performance gets.
Ali Fazal
239
‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ is about how, as a young woman, everyone gets that moment of being in bloom, but nobody really appreciates it.
Jenny Han
240
It’s disgusting, but my father taught me when your mouth gets dry, just suck the sweat out of your own jersey. There’s no bravado to any of it; it’s just a disgusting little trick.
Kobe Bryant
241
If your life gets off to a rough start, just know this is helping you develop depth of personality and depth of character.
John Bytheway
242
For me, time is the greatest mystery of all. The fact is that we’re dreaming all the time. That’s what really gets me. We have a fathomless lake of unconsciousness just beneath our skulls.
Anthony Hopkins
243
Baseball changes through the years. It gets milder.
Babe Ruth
244
It’s very important for us all to understand that we are interconnected and we need to hold hands together, especially when the going gets tough.
Michelle Yeoh
245
I don’t believe in fate or destiny. I believe in various degrees of hatred, paranoia, and abandonment. However much of that gets heaped upon you doesn’t matter – it’s only a matter of how much you can take and what it does to you.
Henry Rollins
246
One nuclear war is going to be the last nuclear – the last war, frankly, if it really gets out of hand. And I just don’t think we ought to be prepared to accept that sort of thing.
Lawrence Eagleburger
247
I like to entertain the crowd. Personally I like to entertain my team-mates first, but when the crowd gets going, it is amazing.
AB de Villiers
248
The great thing about social movements is everybody gets to be a part of them.
Jim Wallis
249
I used to love stage above all, but that was when I was a single man. As I get older, the time commitment gets harder for theatre.
Seamus Dever
250
I was very excited about the idea that I could be an idealist, that I could be my age, the eager beaver who had hope in the justice system and the one who gets disappointed just like the audience.
Elisabeth Rohm
251
People know me as Prakash Rai in Karnataka. Let it be so. But I’m known as Prakash Raj to the rest of India and abroad. Every actor worth his salt gets a name after coming to films.
Prakash Raj
252
A company can set off in one direction, figures out that it’s not the right way to go, and then go in an entirely new direction. Over time, the product or service improves, and the company gets better at executing and delivering.
Andrew Yang
253
I’ve been a Christian for a long time, and I think that Christianity gets a bad rap. I think that people’s perception of what a Christian is today is something that is close-minded and narrow, and that’s not what I am.
Andie MacDowell
254
If you’re a singer you lose your voice. A baseball player loses his arm. A writer gets more knowledge, and if he’s good, the older he gets, the better he writes.
Mickey Spillane
255
I wear make-up, and it gets a little bit thicker every year.
Dolly Parton
256
I’ve never been a big fan of subtle art. I like art that gets deep into my head and starts my brain spinning with new ideas and inspiration and my whole body is full of energy.
Jello Biafra
257
As soon as you’re locking doors, you’re narrowing your circle. And your circle gets smaller and smaller until it’s finally just yourself and your buddy and you’ve got no one to party with.
Justin Trudeau
258
If you can write someone off as a bad person, then it’s easier, but when someone is also great and noble and generous and kind and funny and contradictory, it gets harder.
Boy George
259
Make no mistake, adolescence is a war. No one gets out unscathed.
Harlan Coben
260
I still ponder what gets in people’s minds and souls, why they do the things they do.
Paul Nassif
261
I honor religion except when it gets into shedding blood.
Rip Torn
262
Someone told me the smile on my face gets bigger when I play the guitar.
Niall Horan
263
The worst mistake of a woman is to go to the kitchen, because then she never gets out of there.
Shakira
264
Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it gets you nowhere.
Glenn Turner
265
Nobody gets out of love alive. You turn into a menace or a pest when you’ve been rejected.
Helen Fisher
266
Grief is like a moving river, so that’s what I mean by it’s always changing. It’s a strange thing to say because I’m at heart an optimistic person, but I would say in some ways it just gets worse. It’s just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone.
Michelle Williams
267
Honestly, I want to live a calm life without being in the press. I want to be like any other American citizen who gets a speeding ticket or has an argument with his spouse… and doesn’t have the whole world know.
George Zimmerman
268
If you give a good performance, something that gets some feeling across to people, that’s such a rare gift. It’s underestimated at this point in history, when the music biz is inevitably turning into a kind of politics.
Iggy Pop
269
Humor is this great equalizer. It gets people’s defenses down, and once they’re down, you can discuss some really difficult topics.
Luvvie Ajayi
270
I think I’m always subconsciously trying to write the ideal school play. Lots of parts for everybody, great parts for women – don’t forget, more girls try out than boys in the school play; everyone gets to be in the school play.
Lin-Manuel Miranda
271
I’m for whatever gets you through the night.
Frank Sinatra
272
I wanna do a song with Adele! Nobody gets Adele as a feature, so maybe I can. I hope she knows who I am!
Anderson Paak
273
I always said if it gets to a point where I really want a child, I would adopt; kids are amazing, so I’m getting the selfish stuff out of my system so when I have them I can say, ‘Go, run. I have plenty of money, go play.’
Sandra Bullock
274
If somebody on this team actually gets to first base, I’ll stand there naked.
Kate O’Brien
275
I try to play ‘Maneater’ by Daryl Hall and John Oates at least once when I drive somewhere. It gets me so ‘hype,’ as the kids would say.
Annalise Basso
276
My dad is just like everybody else’s dad. I see him as kind of a goofy guy with a great sense of humor. I try to get in a battle of wits with him, but he always gets me. I emulate him because I’ve never seen anyone work as hard as he does.
Peter Uihlein
277
Personally, I think universities are finished. So much rubbish gets taught.
A. N. Wilson
278
Nothing gets my journalistic juices flowing more than a seaside chalet, the mention of a private jet, or room service in St. Tropez.
Robin Leach
279
I made 22 million in 14 years… with taxes, and travel and everything else, it gets blown out the window… which is why I still need to work.
Boomer Esiason
280
I read a lot for me. But I’m not one of those people who gets ‘The New York Times’ book review and runs out and buys 10 books and is done with them and passing them out to friends, you know, two weeks later.
Justin Theroux
281
I chased my dreams. In the end, find what gets you excited and chase it.
Guion Bluford
282
I gotta be honest with you. I’m kind of jealous of the way my dad gets to talk to my mom sometimes. Where are all those old-school women you can just take your day out on? When did they stop making those angels?
Bill Burr
283
I know it’s cliche to say, ‘When you do something you love you never work a day in your life.’ But it is true: When you do something you love, life gets to be a little bit easier and enjoyable. So I just want people to follow their dreams.
Tika Sumpter
284
Personally, I feel that if you shoot off 200,000 rounds, and your lead character pulls out a pistol and never gets hit, there’s a sense of jeopardy that’s lost. It becomes a little less exciting when things don’t make sense.
Judge Reinhold
285
I feel like everyone just gets constricted by their parents or, just, life.
Travis Scott
286
Law and order are the medicine of the body politic and when the body politic gets sick, medicine must be administered.
B. R. Ambedkar
287
You know I need that cockiness, the self-belief, arrogance, swagger, whatever you want to call it, I need that on the golf course to bring the best out of myself. So you know once I leave the golf course, you know that all gets left there.
Rory McIlroy
288
One tradition I have with my friends is that when one of us gets married, we have a ton of fragrance oils and pretty bottles at the bachelorette party. Everyone puts a drop or two in a bottle for the bride and makes a wish, and the bride wears our creation on her wedding day.
Jennifer Aniston
289
I believe people have a right to know what’s going on with their information and how it’s collected, how it’s stored and who gets it.
Al Franken
290
Men get away with everything. But if a wife has an affair, she gets the blame. When husband has an affair The Other Woman’ gets the bad name.
Abhinav Shukla
291
I’m a firm believer when everybody in the community gets excited, it’s a positive.
Joel Glazer
292
Everywhere, I see it’s just ‘Manny, Manny, Manny.’ It kind of gets a little distracting at times.
Manny Machado
293
For some reason, chewing gum for me gets my brain going.
Brie Larson
294
I work hard for my stuff. And even when I work hard for my stuff, it gets taken away – which is cool. It’s alright. You can’t take my smile. And you won’t.
Tony Ferguson
295
The upside of web-based journalism is that everybody gets a chance. The downside is that everybody gets a chance.
Aaron Sorkin
296
The sage does not hoard. The more he helps others, the more he benefits himself, The more he gives to others, the more he gets himself. The Way of Heaven does one good but never does one harm. The Way of the sage is to act but not to compete.
Lao Tzu
297
By letting it go it all gets done. The world is won by those who let it go. But when you try and try. The world is beyond the winning.
Lao Tzu
298
Whatever is said about roles drying up, I intend to keep working. Certainly now the roles couldn’t be more interesting – playing mothers, divorcees. I think it’s going to be exciting to play a mother of teenagers. The longer your life, the deeper it gets.
Naomi Watts
299
The dynamic of a relationship changes when one person gets sober.
Trent Reznor
300
The government gets it right on Head Start. We are providing opportunities for children in underserved areas where parents may not be able to afford preschool so they can begin their schooling with a running or Head Start.
Bob Filner
301
Not a ‘Mad Men’ guy. Never got into it. I’m kind of a contrarian that way. If something gets too popular too fast before I can get on it, I just get really annoyed. Everybody tells me I’m an idiot; it’s supposed to be amazing. I saw some of the second season; I loved it, but I was just detached. I didn’t get into it.
D. J. Cotrona
302
Marketing is what gets you noticed, and that side of it something – this side of it, if you like, doing interviews – is the side of it that I least enjoy, and yet is 50% of the project.
Rowan Atkinson
303
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.
Hunter S. Thompson
304
We know that diversity can sometimes be more uncomfortable because things are less familiar – but it gets the best results.
Megan Smith
305
Sometimes one pays most for the things one gets for nothing.
Albert Einstein
306
There are so many funny women in the world, and there has been for so many years, so I’ll be happy when people can just move on from that, and things can just be ‘comedies’ and not ‘female’ or ‘male,’ and everyone gets an equal opportunity.
Kristen Wiig
307
If you think of life and death on a continuum, finding the point where it tips is complicated. It cuts across all political lines and gets to the root of our humanity. It requires faith informed by years of intimacy that you’re doing what’s right for your loved one.
Eleanor Clift
308
Bahrainis are better off than many other Arabs. We have a welfare state, everybody gets a salary whether they have a job or not. Electricity and food are subsidized; school and healthcare are free. And we don’t differentiate between Bahrainis and foreigners. We are very proud of that.
Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa
309
The dumbing down of the country reflects itself on Broadway. The shows get dumber, and the public gets used to them.
Stephen Sondheim
310
I’ve always believed in writing without a collaborator, because where two people are writing the same book, each believes he gets all the worry and only half the royalties.
Agatha Christie
311
I tell my daughter every morning, ‘Now, what are the two most important parts of you?’ And she says, ‘My head and my heart.’ Because that’s what I’ve learned in the foxhole: What gets you through life is strength of character and strength of spirit and love.
Viola Davis
312
If a farmer fills his barn with grain, he gets mice. If he leaves it empty, he gets actors.
Walter Scott
313
I am a fan of all genres. My big thing is to serve the purpose of the script and what the director wants. If it’s a comedy, I want to be funny; if it’s action, I want to bring the action. If it’s drama, I want to be the catalyst for that drama. That’s the fun part; it never gets boring being an actor.
Terry Crews
314
Once a president gets to the White House, the only audience that is left that really matters is history.
Doris Kearns Goodwin
315
Since childhood, I have been a fan of Spider Man because, according to me, he has the maximum humanity; he is very human, very mortal. So he even gets hurt. He has a poor background, but when he wears the costume, he forgets all of that, all the pressures of the society on him.
Tiger Shroff
316
As we are pursuing economic growth and economic development, we have to make sure it happens with and by and for everyone. That everyone gets opportunity.
Betsy Hodges
317
What gets me upset about with the newer players is their lack of intensity. They tend to go through the motions a little bit. They don’t understand that you’ve got to practice the way you play.
Al Kaline
318
On its self-titled debut, Happy Birthday flirts with several flavors of love, and ‘Girls FM’ is where taste gets confusing.
Anthony Fantano
319
I realize there is a paucity of African-Americans in my position. Everywhere I go, people say, ‘Don’t mess this up. Don’t forget about us.’ You feel a tremendous responsibility, not to take the black side of things but to make sure that side gets heard, because if I don’t do it, who’s going to do it?
Stephen A. Smith
320
Negativity gets attention and gets clicks.
Redfoo
321
The romantic person instinctively sees marriage in terms of emotions, but what a couple actually gets up to together over a lifetime has much more in common with the workings of a small business. They must draw up work rosters, clean, chauffeur, cook, fix, throw away, mind, hire, fire, reconcile, and budget.
Alain de Botton

I don’t care about awards and all the attention being a ‘celebrity’ gets you. It’s just part of the job.
James Corden
323
When the going gets tough, the tough take a nap.
Tom Hodgkinson
324
Nobody gets between me and my microphone.
Sinead O’Connor
325
Basically, I’m for anything that gets you through the night – be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels.
Frank Sinatra
326
When someone gets closely related to a character they play on TV, it’s very hard to break that mold and go on to do something else.
Katherine Moennig
327
Credit is a system whereby a person who can not pay gets another person who can not pay to guarantee that he can pay.
Charles Dickens
328
You know, ‘Star Wars’ – even when it gets dark, it comes back to the light – it makes you feel good. I think families enjoy watching it and sharing in it.
Dave Filoni
329
My favorite movie is ‘The Outlaw Josey Wales’ with Clint Eastwood, a guy who gets his family killed by the bad guys then goes on a journey of revenge, eventually discovering himself – very existential.
Frank Grillo
330
A real patriot is the fellow who gets a parking ticket and rejoices that the system works.
Bill Vaughan
331
When we’re playing, I really shape my body to receive the ball – even before it gets to me.
Clarence Seedorf
332
The Coast Guard has long been known as the armed service that gets more done for less.
Howard Coble
333
Truth may be stretched, but cannot be broken, and always gets above falsehood, as does oil above water.
Miguel de Cervantes
334
Ultimately, ‘Cinderella’ is the story of the underdog. You root for her in this fairytale; the girl who has nothing, deserves so much more, and gets it.
Lily James
335
Music drives you. It wakes you up, it gets you pumping. And, at the end of the day, the correct tune will chill you down.
Dimebag Darrell
336
I wake up at 6 A.M. and start with yoga. I’m by no means a morning person, but I’ve trained myself to become one. My husband wakes up at 4:30 A.M., so he makes me feel like a loser. When you wake up and no one is in the bed, it kind of gets you up.
Huda Kattan
337
Crime is a very hard genre to feminise. If you have a female protagonist she is going to be looking after her mum when she gets older; she is going to be worried about her brother and sister; she will be making a living while bringing up kids.
Denise Mina
338
You’ve got to coach worrying about your entire team: whether that gets you a championship or whether that gets you fired. I think it allows you to coach free. You’re coaching with freedom because you know you’re doing what you think is right.
Doc Rivers
339
I was in love with a lot of people, because I was a student of the game of comedy – Carol Burnett, Jack Benny, Red Skelton, Jackie Gleason, Don Rickles, Red Foxx, Moms Mabley – who gets no credit, Richard Pryor, Bill Cosby, George Kirby. I loved them all, and I used to just take a page out of all of them.
Bernie Mac
340
The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.
Robert A. Heinlein
341
I’m probably going to get in trouble for this but ‘American Dad’ is one of my favourite shows. It gets very dark in places but the jokes are there.
Donald Glover
342
My word is gold, And I make sure everyone gets paid.
Charlie Shrem
343
When the government controls a limited supply, the government gets to decide who gets the vaccines and who doesn’t. In some cases, who lives and who doesn’t.
Trish Regan
344
We want all the Palestinians back in their homeland, and then there can be a fair referendum for people to choose the form of state they want. Whoever gets the majority can rule.
Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani
345
It’s very difficult for me to look at politics with clear eyes. I’ll read a story in the paper and the first thing that pops into my head is, what would my dad say about that? Then I try to break out of that and think, ‘What would Said say about that,’ and then it gets complicated.
Said Sayrafiezadeh
346
When Rumsfeld gets up on television and says we have definitive intelligence that al Qaeda is working with Iraq, how is an ordinary citizen supposed to react? They won’t tell you the evidence, and when anyone asks, they say, ‘Well, you know: It’s secret.’
Noam Chomsky
347
Amen is not the end of a prayer, it just gets us ready to go to the next level.
Gary Busey
348
I think for a lot of people, friendship is a relationship that gets devalued once they move on to what people consider to be more important relationships: once you find a partner or when you have kids.
Hanya Yanagihara
349
If you look at comparative figures, the last two episodes of ‘Six Wives of Henry VIII’ were watched by 4m. Graham Norton, who is very funny, gets 3m. Johnny Vaughan’s comedy, which I have never seen but people say isn’t very good, got less than half the viewers of ‘Six Wives.’
David Starkey
350
It’s so funny because if you tweet your lyrics and then you hear it in a song next week, you’re like, ‘Hey I had that same idea.’ I’m very secretive with my music. We have to send emails password protected. Because once that song gets out, you aren’t selling that thing.
Ester Dean
351
When my daughter Dixie gets out of school, I take her to ballet, soccer, or karate. Or if it’s a free afternoon, we might bake together. I love our time together. There is nothing more important in my life than making her happy.
Lily Aldridge
352
A lot of people don’t realize this, but probably the one person that gets made fun of in ‘South Park’ more than anybody is my dad. Stan’s father, Randy – my dad’s name is Randy – that’s my drawing of my dad; that’s me doing my dad’s voice. That is just my dad. Even Stan’s last name, Marsh, was my dad’s stepfather’s name.
Trey Parker
353
The teacher is the one who gets the most out of the lessons, and the true teacher is the learner.
Elbert Hubbard
354
But in Delhi, people love artists. They love any musician, any actor; anybody from the art field who visits from the entertainment industry, gets an amazing response in Delhi.
Raftaar
355
Who gets the bird, the hunter or the dog?
John L. Lewis
356
Everybody knows a guillotine choke, and most know how to get to one. But if you can create a different way to get to that choke, then you’re going to surprise people. However, that will only happen one time, because once it gets used that one time, everyone will see that and start to train for it.
Bas Rutten
357
I do all my work by storyboard, so as I draw the storyboard, the world gets more and more complex, and as a result, my North, South, East, West directions kind of shift and go off base, but it seems like my staff as well as the audience, doesn’t quite realize that this has happened. Don’t tell them about it.
Hayao Miyazaki
358
The horrid mystery hanging over us in this house gets into my head like liquor, and makes me wild.
Wilkie Collins
359
The problem of telling contemporary history is that your message gets outdated.
Salman Rushdie
360
My mom is very structured. She gets up, she does her prayers, and she eats her oatmeal with blueberries and Greek yogurt, and she has her prayer list, and she doesn’t worry too much about things.
Maria Bamford
361
As you get older it gets doubly hard to keep yourself fit and in shape.
Steve Harris
362
I’m just thinking I’m just like a normal actor who gets scripts, and I read them, and… if I enjoy reading them, then that’s what’s exciting, then I get excited about the audition or the project itself.
Alan Tudyk
363
There is some risk that if the wrong regulatory regime gets adopted in the U.S., then the center of innovation could move to other countries. If blockchains are the next Internet, that would be a very unfortunate development for the U.S.
David O. Sacks
364
Life gets weird enough without having to worry about whether you are covered for this or have to have a deductible for that, so the less stress when you are in need, the better.
Finn Wolfhard
365
I don’t always enjoy them, but when a scary movie has a really good storyline, that gets me interested.
Sadie Sink
366
If you properly clean a room, it gets dirtier before it gets cleaner.
Chris Rock
367
There’s not really much destruction in New York besides the weather and it’s a natural force so it’s not like any destruction. But LA gets leveled (laughs). That’s my comment to Hollywood.
Roland Emmerich
368
I think people respond to dystopian stories because they’re ways of acting out anxieties that we have and fears that we have about the future. So much media’s coming at you over the Internet, your brain gets overloaded. You don’t know what to do with it. And one thing you can do with it is read a story.
Suzanne Collins
369
When I was a kid, the great debate was about how to defeat the Soviet Union. And we won. Now we are told that the great debate is about who gets to use which bathroom. This is a distraction from our real problems. Who cares?
Peter Thiel
370
The more I grow in popularity, the lonelier it gets. Because you don’t really know me. You just know this part of me. You fell in love with that. But it’s way more intricate than what meets the surface.
Kevin Gates
371
If a man is pictured chopping off a woman’s breast, it only gets a R rating, but if, God forbid, a man is pictured kissing a woman’s breast, it gets an X rating. Why is violence more acceptable than tenderness?
Sally Struthers

Almost everybody that’s well-known gets tagged with a nickname.
Alan Alda

A great secret of success is to go through life as a man who never gets used up.
Albert Schweitzer

It doesn’t matter who gets what. It’s just a matter of doing what it takes to win.
Pau Gasol
375
I think that once you start writing songs, you start developing a library of ideas that you can go and take from, so it gets easier as you go.
James Mercer

Writing doesn’t come easily to me. It gets more and more difficult.
Elizabeth David
377
We’re comic. We’re all comics. We live in a comic time. And the worse it gets the more comic we are.
William Gaddis
378
No matter how much we try to run away from this thirst for the answer to life, for the meaning of life, the intensity only gets stronger and stronger. We cannot escape these spiritual hungers.
Ravi Zacharias
379
I just felt it was my job to show that there is no easy way to success, and that anyone who gets even just one Top 40 hit deserves their moment in the sun. I accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative. That is the timeless thing.
Casey Kasem
380
Sport is a great thing to get involved with, it’s not just fitness but it also gets your competitive side out.
Ellie Simmonds
381
To clean your face thoroughly, even do a scrub, and let it sit and make sure your pores are clean before you go to club. If it sits on your face overnight, dirt just builds up. Even just laying there the whole night, stuff gets on your face, so anything else there is just really not good.
Sasha Pieterse
382
Writing careers are short. For every 100 writers, 99 never get published. Of those who do, only one in every hundred gets a career out of it, so I count myself as immensely privileged.
Jim Crace
383
Anything that gets to the more emotional and dark side of music, I always enjoy.
El-P
384
There’s simply anger over the accountability that Yelp brings and also this feeling of powerlessness because so much power is now being put in the hands of the consumer. But the important thing that gets lost with some of these business owners who are very upset with us is it’s the whole picture that counts.
Jeremy Stoppelman
385
It never gets easier to tell your story. Each time you speak it, you relive it.
Nadia Murad
386
It is always consoling to think of suicide: in that way one gets through many a bad night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
387
One think that you notice about anyone that gets up on stage is that they don’t really have a lot of self-awareness. It’s kind of a trait that performers don’t have because you just kinda just have to let go and do whatever you want to do on stage.
Tyler Joseph
388
If you spend your days doing what you love, it is impossible to fail. So I go about my days trying to bring something into the world that wasn’t in the world before. And then everyone gets furious about it. And then I sit back and say, ‘I did that!’
Ricky Gervais
389
Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on.
Robert Kennedy
390
Fatigue makes fools of us all. It robs you of your skills and your judgment, and it blinds you to creative solutions. It’s the best-conditioned athlete, not the most talented, who generally wins when the going gets tough.
Harvey Mackay
391
The image that the public gets is whatever they perceive it to be. Everybody has an opinion, everybody has their own vision, so I don’t know what my public image is. I have no idea.
Lenny Kravitz
392
When people write comedy from neutrality, it just gets kind of silly.
Mort Sahl
393
Instead, I have an abundance mentality: When people are genuinely happy at the successes of others, the pie gets larger.
Stephen Covey
394
And finally, no matter how good the science gets, there are problems that inevitably depend on judgement, on art, on a feel for financial markets.
Martin Feldstein
395
I don’t like sports where it’s like, you watch a guy on a motorcycle flip or something, then another guy does it, it looks exactly the same, and then at the end one guy gets higher points! It seems so arbitrary; I don’t know who’s ahead ever.
Norm MacDonald
396
My mom’s whole side of the family, they’re all Packers fans. My mom’s a Bears fan. My stepdad is a Vikings guy. So that gets ugly. My mom sits upstairs watching the Bears game; he sits in the basement. They can’t watch it together. Football’s a violent anger in our family dynamic.
Ashton Kutcher
397
No human trait deserves less tolerance in everyday life, and gets less, than intolerance.
Giacomo Leopardi
398
I don’t want to be made pacified or made comfortable. I like stuff that gets your adrenaline going.
Kathryn Bigelow
399
I’ve seen up close what can happen when actors talk publicly about their relationships: their personal life gets dismantled. It’s a show business game, and it’s one game I won’t play.
Katherine Moennig
400
I’m a diplomat by nature. I help find the middle ground. I crack a joke and use humour to help resolve potentially vicious situations quickly. It gets things in perspective and helps everyone to see that things aren’t as bad as they seem.
Ronnie Wood
401
When a train goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, you don’t throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the engineer.
Corrie Ten Boom

Knowledge is like money: the more he gets, the more he craves.
Josh Billings
403
I just feel like it gets harder and harder every year with Ace getting older and time away from my husband and even family events such as birthdays and friends’ weddings and things that I’ve always just missed out on because of softball.
Jennie Finch

The housing market will get worse before it gets better.
James Wilson
405
I believe that we have the ability to change our lives using our imaginations. Imagination is a muscle – the more you use it, the stronger it gets.
Rodman Philbrick
406
The greatest progress is in the sciences that study the simplest systems. So take, say, physics – greatest progress there. But one of the reasons is that the physicists have an advantage that no other branch of sciences has. If something gets too complicated, they hand it to someone else.
Noam Chomsky
407
Rule number one in negotiating anything with Missy is never try and run me over. Never push me, because I am a very strong woman. I’m nice, but I’m very strong. When it gets down gritty, I can get grittier. Never, ever underestimate me.
Missy Elliott
408
Sometimes I’ll watch a music video of a great performer like Beyonce and try to follow her choreography. Yeah, maybe I look ridiculous, but dancing gets your energy up a lot better than running on a treadmill or pedaling a stationary bike.
Brooklyn Decker
409
Views are overrated; it’s light that counts. I have an apartment in Miami’s South Beach, and I get tired of looking at the ocean. Even that view gets old after a while. Sunlight streaming into a room – it never gets old.
Michael Graves
410
When a place gets crowded enough to require ID’s, social collapse is not far away. It is time to go elsewhere. The best thing about space travel is that it made it possible to go elsewhere.
Robert A. Heinlein
411
Don’t let your ego get too close to your position, so that if your position gets shot down, your ego doesn’t go with it.
Colin Powell

I hope I go to Heaven, and when I do, I’m going to do what every San Franciscan does when he gets there. He looks around and says, ‘It ain’t bad, but it ain’t San Francisco.’
Herb Caen

Marketing and press kicks up dust. It gets in your eye, and then you’re not focusing on the product.
Jan Koum
414
Madame Walker was one of the four iconic women who really created what’s now the modern hair-care and cosmetics industry, and we know about her in the black community because everybody gets their hair done.
A’Lelia Bundles
415
Romance is alive and well in America, but the 50 percent who can’t make it work fail because of selfishness. It gets down to that. You can’t oversimplify it because every situation is so complex.
Donny Osmond
416
If you are playing on a turning wicket, toss plays an important role. The team that wins the toss gets an opportunity to play on the fresh wicket. You should always prepare the wicket as per team’s strength. But a rank turner might backfire.
Kapil Dev
417
‘LIFE Magazine’ decided to do a story about a young actress in Hollywood in 1954. And I made the cover. And I remember that the fellow who was doing the story on me said, ‘Listen, kid, I just want you to know, if Eisenhower gets a cold, you’re off the cover.’
Rita Moreno
418
When you play defense what happens is everybody pays attention and they start talking about how you’re the stopper, you can stop this guy. All of a sudden your game gets better on the offensive end and you become that versatile guard that everybody wants.
Gary Payton
419
I believe people who go into politics want to do the right thing. And then they hit a big wall of re-election and the pettiness of politics. In the end, politics gets in the way of the business of people.
Kevin Costner
420
If you are going to be a writer, you have to have self-belief, every writer gets rejections, they say the difference between a successful and unsuccessful writer is an unsuccessful writer gives up, if you keep going you will succeed.
Anthony Horowitz

We’re more interested in someone writing a really great answer that’s going to be read by thousands or tens of thousands of people over the next few years as it stays on Quora and as it gets distributed on the Internet.
Adam D’Angelo

No one gets away with anything, ever, so take responsibility for your own life.
Jordan Peterson

‘Hard-working’ is what gets the job done. You just see that year after year. The students who thrive are not necessarily the ones who come in with the perfect scores. It’s the ones who love what they’re doing and go at it vigorously.

The Majestic Theatre in San Antone is as good as it gets.
Ron White

Remind yourself that winning an argument or proving your point really gets you nowhere in the long run. Win through your actions, not your words.
Robert Greene
426
I’ve always been that person: If it gets into my head, I’ve got to do it until I get it perfect – a perfectionist’s attitude.
Brendon Urie
427
There’s a great metaphor that one of my doctors uses: If a fish is swimming in a dirty tank and it gets sick, do you take it to the vet and amputate the fin? No, you clean the water. So, I cleaned up my system. By eating organic raw greens, nuts and healthy fats, I am flooding my body with enzymes, vitamins and oxygen.
Kris Carr
428
Getting the best out of your best players gets the best out of the team.
Chris Coleman
429
Having a persona people recognize, it’s the thing that probably gets you paid the most – but it’s also the thing that virtually every actor in the world doesn’t want. ‘Cause, like, no one would believe me if I wanted to play something ultra-realistic, like a gangster or something.
Robert Pattinson

The early bird gets the worm. The early worm… gets eaten.
Norman Ralph Augustine

An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her.

Everybody gets caught up in everything, but at the end of the day we’re all just here for a short time, so we may as well enjoy it.

When the youth of America gets together, amazing things happen.
Tom Ford
434
I don’t back down. I don’t cave when the pressure gets too great from these partisan political ideological forces.
Dan Rather
435
Everybody gets to a stage when it’s time to move on. I was bored, and the band wasn’t going anywhere, so I left. I did a couple of shows on Broadway and some other things. I was busy. I just wasn’t making records.
Peter Noone
436
Thanksgiving is a time when the world gets to see just how blessed and how workable the Christian system is. The emphasis is not on giving or buying, but on being thankful and expressing that appreciation to God and to one another.
John Clayton
437
No one ever gets to write their ending, write their final script.
Greg Olsen
438
Writing a book is very personal. It’s a very personal relationship. A book will start with something as simple as two men talking about work. That gets the fire going. Sustaining that fire is the hard work. It takes attention and empathy to hone the characters.
Ron Carlson
439
Gosh, all a kid has to do these days is spit straight and he gets forty-thousand dollars to sign.
Cy Young

It calmed me down to see that most of the time no-one gets the scene on the first take.

Virtual reality, all the A.I. work we do, all the robotics work we do – we’re as close to realizing science fiction as it gets.
Jensen Huang
445
Colleagues are a wonderful thing – but mentors, that’s where the real work gets done.
Junot Diaz
446
It’s really cool when the thing you are working on as a small team gets embraced by millions, but in the end, it’s about your character and the script and your director and the rest of the cast and crew.
Finn Wolfhard
447
I used to tell the players that professional football is a part-time profession. I used to tell them it gets you ready for your life’s work.
Chuck Noll
448
What happens with ‘Mad Men,’ it’s like an Elvis Costello album; I’ll watch it, and then I immediately have to watch it again. AMC will play it back-to-back. I have a tendency to yell at it when my wife’s not around because if she catches me yelling at ‘Mad Men,’ then it gets weird.
Michael Weatherly
449
People say: ‘Why do you want to play the straight man?’ Well, it’s because he gets to be in every scene.
Jason Bateman

A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
Winston Churchill
451
Business is never so healthy as when, like a chicken, it must do a certain amount of scratching around for what it gets.
Henry Ford
452
I can look into someone’s eyes and feel like I know her better, versus a phone call, where you can’t get that same type of emotion. That’s why text messaging gets you in trouble: You can’t bond, and emoticons explain only so much.
Apolo Ohno
453
The thing that still somehow surprises me, and I have come to this realization over and over again, is this nonsense that gets peddled regarding, ‘Just work really hard, be really smart, do the right thing, and you’ll get rewarded.’ No, you don’t. You don’t get rewarded for those things in this society.
Ana Kasparian
454
With the pandemic crushing the world, I pray for everyone’s health and well-being. I wish the world heals fast. Every morning I wake up with the hope that a vaccine gets invented soon to combat Covid-19.
Koel Mallick

I don’t think of myself as giving interviews. I just have conversations. That gets me in trouble.
Charles Barkley

People that were a little nerdy in high school would look up to me and know it gets better.
Al Yankovic
457
If you are not around when Africa truly gets going, it would be much like the sceptics who stood on the sidelines in the 1990s convinced that China was going nowhere. How wrong they were.
Yemi Osinbajo
458
If you take a lie and allow your desire for the truth, you’ll end up with some truth – not fact, but something that gets you closer to the truth. That’s what we want. When we go to a play, we need to be assured that the experience we’re having.
Denis Johnson
459
No one ever gets far unless he accomplishes the impossible at least once a day.
Elbert Hubbard
460
I don’t react and think off emotions – that gets you in a bad situation.
Bernard Hopkins
461
Good leadership is to know when to go, and you only succeed as a good leader if you’ve transported someone else in and the company gets stronger. Then you’ve succeeded as leader.
Tony Fernandes
462
At the beginning, everything’s possible and everybody gets equal time, all the characters, all the ideas. You don’t know who’s going to be the main characters; they’re all fighting it out. It’s like kind of the best time in a way.
Stephen Gaghan
463
I had a lovely, feral, free childhood – out and then come back when you’re hungry or it gets too dark. I feel slightly cruel that I’m not offering my children the same.

George Meredith
467
If Iran becomes a nuclear weapon state it is the end of non-proliferation as we know it. If Iran gets a nuclear weapon you are likely to see Saudi, Egypt and other countries follow suit and we will bequeath to the next generation a nuclear arms race in the world’s most unstable region.
Liam Fox

Our goal is really to make sure that ‘Instagram’, whether you’re a celebrity or not, is a safe place and that the content that gets posted is something that’s appropriate for teens and also for adults.
Kevin Systrom

A beast does not know that he is a beast, and the nearer a man gets to being a beast, the less he knows it.
George MacDonald

Most Americans think that the typical low – income family lives in public housing or gets housing assistance. The opposite is true.
Matthew Desmond
471
People assume that the smarter your home, the better your life, but in reality, technology so often gets in the way of leading a good life.
Joe Gebbia
472
I just try to write what I think would really happen, and with grief and tragedy, there are these naturally occurring moments of levity and humor and absurdity. I think that’s what life is really like. Sadness gets interrupted, and happiness gets interrupted.
Kaui Hart Hemmings
473
When it gets down to it, basketball is basketball.
Larry Bird
474
In my opinion, the only way to conquer stage fright is to get up on stage and play. Every time you play another show, it gets better and better.
Taylor Swift
475
Nixon had some large achievements in foreign affairs. They will be remembered. But a president probably gets remembered for one thing, and Watergate will head the Nixon list, I suspect.
Bob Woodward
476
It was about 105 degrees in Chicago. And that’s a time when everybody gets tired. I came into the clubhouse, and everybody was sitting around, and I said, ‘Beautiful day. Let’s play two!’ And everybody looked at me like I was crazy. There were a couple of writers around, and they wrote that, and it stayed with me.
Ernie Banks
477
China and India are feeding their people for the first time in human history due to free markets, and the Left knows that, and it gets them nervous.
Dave Brat
478
Pride slays thanksgiving, but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
Henry Ward Beecher
479
You work on an idea, your first interpretation is very raw and you work it and you work it and it gets polished and polished. It gets to a certain level and then it comes down off that peak.
Kim Weston
480
When it comes to song creation, I throw in my ideas and have it discussed with the producer. The song gets its own characteristic as new ideas are incorporated.
Hyuna
481
It’s easy to forget how little strategic thinking ever gets done in the day. Judging by the ideas generated there, our beds have more of a right to be called our offices than our offices.
Alain de Botton
482
Having a two-year-old is very hard. I feel like I’m in a relationship with an emotionally unstable woman who is also physically abusive and never gets in trouble for it.

Jazz is like wine. When it is new, it is only for the experts, but when it gets older, everybody wants it.
Steve Lacy
485
If the individual, or heretic, gets hold of some essential truth, or sees some error in the system being practiced, he commits so many marginal errors himself that he is worn out before he can establish his point.
Ezra Pound
486
Everybody gets everything handed to them. The rich inherit it. I don’t mean just inheritance of money. I mean what people take for granted among the middle and upper classes, which is nepotism, the old-boy network.
Toni Morrison
487
The downfall of any leader in a sport’s team is when he gets carried away with his own ego.
Toto Wolff
488
Government has to be cut back like asparagus… every day… or it gets away and goes to seed. Ours did. When there’s too much of it, the flower becomes a weed.
Paul Harvey
489
The ‘democracy gap’ in our politics and elections spells a deep sense of powerlessness by people who drop out, do not vote, or listlessly vote for the ‘least worst’ every four years and then wonder why after every cycle the ‘least worst’ gets worse.
Ralph Nader
490
The woman who appeals to a man’s vanity may stimulate him, the woman who appeals to his heart may attract him, but it is the woman who appeals to his imagination who gets him.
Helen Rowland
491
The way I was raised, you get a new pair of sneakers when the old one gets messed up. But when I got to high school, I started dating girls and trying to fit in, and I realized everybody was collecting Jordans. When I would get my paychecks, I wouldn’t even take money. I would just trade them for sneakers.
Kerby Jean-Raymond
492
I started here in Australia, playing a lot of roles but never the lead guy in shows here. I always tended to play the rougher guy, the criminal who gets caught or shot by the cops. Or the boyfriend from the wrong side of the tracks.
Sullivan Stapleton
493
When I’m doing a movie, I eat the same thing every day. For lunch, it’s tuna salad or chicken salad and cole slaw. That’s it. For dinner it’s either veal and rice, fish and rice or steak and rice. It gets boring; boy, does it get boring.
Sylvester Stallone
494
Hope is the greatest thing for moms of autism. Hope is what gets us out of bed in the morning. I’m on a mission to tell parents that there is a way.
Jenny McCarthy
495
My husband has no desire to work with me; don’t get it twisted. He gets paid a lot of money to write giant movies. He’s not into humoring me with my projects. But, that being said, I did have the story credit on ‘Blades of Glory,’ and writing is something that I’ve always been interested in pursuing more.
Busy Philipps
496
Even when someone gets to looking like she should be so proud of herself, instead she’s like, ‘I could be another three pounds less; I could be a little taller and have bigger lips.’
Melissa McCarthy
497
I write a lot, and very often I write a couple of lines that are particularly revealing in some kind of way. And then as a few more lines get added and a piece gets added, eventually the song pretty much takes over and you can’t really find a way to change those things.
Nick Cave
498
I don’t believe in technological determinism, especially not in biology and medicine. We have strong laws to keep doctors from monkeying around with humans that will remain in place. It’s simply not true that everything that is technologically possible gets done.
Freeman Dyson
499
We were always reminded by our teachers that careers take off at different times. They held up Arthur Lowe as a great example of an actor who works for years and then suddenly he gets a part and everybody knows him.
Adrian Dunbar
500
It never gets old. Working with somebody like Kevin Hart is rejuvenating in a lot of ways. He’s such a pro. He’s so good.
Ice Cube
501
A good song never gets old.
Bad Bunny
502
I don’t worry about the last shot or the next shot. I concentrate. Every shot gets a clean slate. And when a shot is over, I wipe it out absolutely. Tell a joke or something. If you worry about how you looked, how well you did, you’ll go insane.
Michael Caine
503
I’m never going to be one of those guys who gets on TV and yells and screams. That’s not how I do my business. But I’m very aware of social responsibility.
Charles Barkley
504
It gets cold here in the Ozarks in the winter. There are often warm winter days, but there are also weeks when the temperature never climbs above freezing.
Sue Hubbell
505
Life is hard and it gets worse and worse and worse.
Cat Power
506
Determination gets you a long way.
Chelsea Clinton
507
Life goes by fast. Enjoy it. Calm down. It’s all funny. Next. Everyone gets so upset about the wrong things.
Joan Rivers
508
Toronto deserves Rob Ford; they put him in office. Toronto deserves everything it gets.
Bret Hart
509
Every country gets the circus it deserves. Spain gets bullfights. Italy the Church. America Hollywood.
Erica Jong
510
I am a nice human, but I’ve also got Italian in my family. My mom’s side is Italian and my mom is a very scary human being. I get a lot of that intensity and snap straight into it from her. She’s legit terrifying. Lovely girl. Lovely mother but when she gets angry, she’s absolutely terrifying. She’s a damn monster.
Rhea Ripley
511
I really don’t have much respect for the people who live their lives motivated by an exit strategy existing, being performed. There was no option that we were trained in that says, ‘If it gets too hard, get up and leave.’
Andy Grove
512
It gets slightly daunting if you’re watching the telly and everybody’s gorgeous. It’s just so rubbish. And I’m grateful that it’s not so much anymore – it’s great to see.
Olivia Colman
513
Part of my problem is that I cannot dispel the myths that have somehow accumulated over the years. Somebody writes something, it’s completely off the wall, but it gets filed and repeated until everyone believes it. For instance, I’ve read that I wear a football helmet in the car.
Stanley Kubrick
514
You have to keep a strong sense of who you really are – and I have a pretty strong sense of myself. It gets me in trouble when I say this, but I don’t think of myself as a politician. I’ve always tried to be honest when communicating with people.
Rudy Giuliani
515
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble.
Joseph Campbell
516
One of the disadvantages of poetry over popular music is that if you write a pop song, it naturally gets into people’s heads as they listen in the car. You don’t have to memorize a Paul Simon song; it’s just in your head, and you can sing along. With a poem, you have to will yourself to memorize it.
Billy Collins
517
The term ‘perjury trap’ means interviewing someone for no underlying crime and no other purpose except with the hope that the person forgets something, or another witness remembers things differently. Either way, somebody gets charged with perjury.
Michael Caputo
518
You can crack a joke and make a person smile but it matters a lot when that’s on screen. It can be a very nice joke but if you shoot it badly or the actor gets the timing wrong, it won’t be funny.
Jitendra Kumar
519
I would love to be in an action movie. I’ve always wanted to play the hacker guy – like, the Jewy hacker guy who just gets yelled at.
Ad-Rock
520
Sometimes the fool who rushes in gets the job done.
Al Bernstein
521
Voting is completely important. People in America think democracy is a given. I think of it as an ecosystem, and what gets in the way of it is politicians and apathy.
Henry Rollins
522
People often say that a bad event is a ‘blessing in disguise.’ Trust me, experience will teach you that some are unbelievably well disguised. Everyone gets fired, or decides to make a radical change at some point. Everyone suffers setbacks.
Tom Freston
523
I am not this big celebrity, but it gets really crazy. You have to go through the nuts of blowing up, in a sense, and then figuring out how to live your life with that.
Vanessa Carlton
524
Yes, I was the one people credit with inventing the cell phone. Now, whenever anyone gets a dropped call, they blame me.
Martin Cooper
525
I’m on a team with LeBron James and Chris Bosh, and they both dress well. It gets competitive. If I don’t bring my A game, they’re going to outshine me.
Dwyane Wade
526
In Camden, it’s just the atmosphere that gets me. It’s simple. It’s nice. It’s real. And it’s the people, too. I like to interact with them because they are normal and I am normal. People probably don’t expect an Arsenal player to come to Camden Lock and, basically, be a normal guy.
Granit Xhaka
527
Baggio is a unique player. It should not surprise you that he gets the most press. But you must remember that it takes a full team to win.
Paolo Maldini
528
Haiti kind of gets a hold of you.
Sean Penn
529
Irrelevance is the feeling that an employee gets when they don’t see how their job really makes a difference in someone else’s life in some large or small way.
Patrick Lencioni
530
Another misconception is that an order is canceled when you hit ‘cancel’ on your computer. But, the fact is it’s canceled only when the market gets the cancellation.
Arthur Levitt
531
You are alive, but you should enjoy that while you can. I try to keep that same life philosophy of just enjoying the moments that come my way and not be the one that gets in my own way from making the most of the opportunities that I have.
Elliot Knight
532
Not a lot of people or pros in this game know how to train correctly. That’s why they don’t have a long career. Their body gets banged up. They get into a rhythm of heavy sparring and heavy work, but through that, they’re limiting movement.
Conor McGregor
533
The fundamental human truth underpinning ‘Ox Mountain Death Song’ is that men so very often turn into their fathers. The way that everything gets passed down.
Kevin Barry
534
Selecting what gets sold in smaller shops and online is a long and artful process, it takes precision and care. The people who stock the successful vintage shops are great buyers, and you pay for their skill as well as the quality level at which they sell their clothes.
Dawn O’Porter
535
I am someone who always gets up again, even if there are setbacks. I have a survivor instinct. I’m not sure where it comes from, but probably from all the little things that make you into who you are.
Heidi Klum
536
If a woman gets tough in negotiations, she’s difficult, whereas a man would be considered a brilliant businessman.
Tamara Mellon
537
Forty-five years since I made my first paycheck, and I’m telling you that ‘Breaking Bad’ is as good as it gets.
Jonathan Banks
538
Politics is the science of who gets what, when, and why.
Sidney Hillman
539
At its core, bitcoin is a smart currency designed by very forward-thinking engineers. It eliminates the need for banks, gets rid of credit card fees, currency exchange fees, money transfer fees, and reduces the need for lawyers in transitions… all good things.
Peter Diamandis
540
When it gets down to it you just have to act.
Aaron Eckhart
541
Nothing is as approved as mediocrity, the majority has established it and it fixes its fangs on whatever gets beyond it either way.
Blaise Pascal
542
Classical stuff takes a lot of rehearsal time and preparation, but with stuff that involves improvisation, you can over-rehearse it and it gets stale. You don’t want it to be too comfortable. In fact, a good sound check, a good rehearsal usually means a bad performance.
John Zorn
543
The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.
J. Paul Getty
544
Sometimes it’s flattering when people copy you, but sometimes it gets to a breaking point.
Billie Eilish
545
I’m a blessing to whoever gets to really know me.
DMX
546
I bristle a little when the argument for film gets put into the nostalgia ghetto. Film is still the highest quality and best-looking image capture medium available. I don’t think it always will be. The digital image will get better, and it will eventually surpass the quality of the film image, but it isn’t there yet.
Rian Johnson
547
No horse gets anywhere until he is harnessed. No stream or gas drives anything until it is confined. No Niagara is ever turned into light and power until it is tunneled. No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined.
Harry Emerson Fosdick
548
Use your time well. Everyone gets time equally. It doesn’t matter how much money you make.
Danny Meyer
549
Skateboarding helps a ton with balance, precision, with air awareness… it gets your senses to be spot-on and it’s also a great way to take my mind off things.
Shaun White
550
My daughter is a real migraine sufferer; the minute she has a handful of Haribo sweets, she gets a headache. There’s a connection between what the liver can’t break down with what goes on to trigger a headache. You just have to be aware.
Sheherazade Goldsmith
551
The man who can drive himself further once the effort gets painful is the man who will win.
Roger Bannister
552
Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance… poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.
Ezra Pound
553
I hate horror movies. I get really scared, and I don’t want to be scared. I don’t know why, but I’m one of those people who gets frightened and can’t go to sleep.
Callum Turner
554
Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
Buddha
555
Being big and famous doesn’t get you more freedom, it gets you less.
Robert Wyatt
556
In Sevens, fitness is crucial, and it’s going to come down to how quickly my body gets in shape.
Nick Cummins
557
It’s dangerous to think of yourself as a hero and someone else as a villain. It gets in the way of empathy.
Megan Ganz
558
Everyone in the entertainment business gets crappy contracts when we start out, and into the middle of our careers. It’s the nature of the business.
J. Michael Straczynski
559
The only time it gets weird is which bathroom do I go into sometimes.
EJ Johnson
560
The trouble is now, with rock’n’roll and stuff, it gets so big that it loses what once upon a time was a magnificent thing, where it was special and quite elusive and occasionally a little sinister and it had its own world nobody could get in.
Robert Plant
561
If it’s just screaming – and I know this sounds so ridiculous – that gets old. But sometimes when there’s literal chaos, it’s like being in a war zone, and that’s kind of exciting. You’re just running through the crowd of people chasing after you and no one knows what’s going on.
Robert Pattinson
562
There is a major problem with reliance on placebos, like most vitamins and antioxidants. Everyone gets upset about Big Science, Big Pharma, but they love Big Placebo.
Michael Specter
563
A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
Henry Ward Beecher
564
Thanksgiving just gets me all warm and tingly and all kinds of wonderful inside.
Willard Scott
565
Wally Amos is the classic example of a man who gets up again and again.
Zig Ziglar
566
There is sometimes a feeling in crime fiction that good writing gets in the way of story. I have never felt that way. All you have is language. Why write beneath yourself? It’s an act of respect for the reader as much as yourself.
John Connolly
567
Invariably something happens at a U.S. Open where the golf course gets out of control one day, they have one pin that’s out of control. It always seems to happen. But they’ve gotten better about the height of the rough.
Payne Stewart
568
Enthusiasm is not the same as just being excited. One gets excited about going on a roller coaster. One becomes enthusiastic about creating and building a roller coaster.
Bo Bennett
569
I think we’re still in a muddle with our language, because once you get words and a spoken language it gets harder to communicate.
Jane Goodall
570
Not everybody even gets to live with their own family because they have to go to L.A. or New York or wherever to work and find a job and leave their family back home. But every day, I get to work with my family – if I want to.
Rob Kardashian
571
The Cold War was a boring thing. Nobody gets better for it. Tremendous money is wasted. Our lives get more difficult. We look at each other as enemies. What’s good in that? In any case, I will do anything in my power in order to stop another Cold War, with the U.S. or any other country in the world.
Dmitry Medvedev
572
Back off or the lizard gets it!
Ryan Stiles
573
You can drive your own self crazy. You don’t have to be in a bad situation or be bullied every day to feel this way. I was constantly judging myself. That’s really the thing that gets you.
Danielle Macdonald
574
My dad used to have an expression – ‘It is the lucky person who gets up in the morning, puts both feet on the floor, knows what they are about to do, and thinks it still matters.’
Joe Biden
575
The tongue is the only tool that gets sharper with use.
Washington Irving
576
Every little kid has always wanted to be a race car driver. This gets some of that out.
David Alan Grier
577
Oh yes, there’s lots of great food in America. But the fast food is about as destructive and evil as it gets. It celebrates a mentality of sloth, convenience, and a cheerful embrace of food we know is hurting us.
Anthony Bourdain
578
Whenever we create dishes, we work very carefully and ask ourselves, ‘Is there anything on the dish that really doesn’t make the dish better?’ Then we eliminate that. We try to stay very focused on really showcasing everything on the plate so nothing gets lost.
Daniel Humm
579
It’s okay to be attracted to other people but not to the point where your partner gets uncomfortable.
Ananya Panday
580
I think journalism gets measured by the quality of information it presents, not the drama or the pyrotechnics associated with us.
Bob Woodward
581
I’m the guy who gets uncomfortable. That’s why I was able to write ‘The 40-Year-Old Virgin’ and ‘Knocked Up.’ I believe in those guys.
Judd Apatow
582
Ego is a social fiction for which one person at a time gets all the blame.
Robert Anton Wilson
583
A kitten is chiefly remarkable for rushing about like mad at nothing whatever, and generally stopping before it gets there.
Agnes Repplier
584
The key to life when it gets tough is to keep moving. Just keep moving.
Tyler Perry
585
Ultimately I’m the writer for me, but also, anytime one of my friends gets stuck with a bit, they can call me, and I’m pretty good at helping them get there.
Ron White
586
I would love a family. I’m at the age where the wish for a child gets stronger. But who knows.
Cameron Diaz
587
I’m kinda secretive, and I can’t even say secretive because of my son. He’s the type, like, he doesn’t let his friends know who his mom is or his stepdad. He doesn’t like me going to his school. If he gets into trouble at school, he’s, like, dying. He’s very low-key with it. He’s always been like that since he was born.
Remy Ma
588
If the Earth gets hit by an asteroid, it’s game over. It’s control-alt-delete for civilization.
Bill Nye
589
Basically my whole life revolves around soccer. I don’t take many vacations. Everything just gets put on the back burner because of my training. I miss out on a lot of weddings and family functions. But at the end of the day, I’m sitting here as a world champion, and it feels pretty good.
Carli Lloyd
590
I know that campaigns can seem small, and even silly. Trivial things become big distractions. Serious issues become sound bites. And the truth gets buried under an avalanche of money and advertising. If you’re sick of hearing me approve this message, believe me – so am I.
Barack Obama
591
The jokes are great but what really matters for a comedian is his performance, his whole attitude, and the laughs that he gets between the jokes rather than on top of the jokes.
Jack Dee
592
The rich man’s dog gets more in the way of vaccination, medicine and medical care than do the workers upon whom the rich man’s wealth is built.
Samora Machel
593
What I’m trying to say is that for the average investor, what I would encourage them to do is to understand that there’s inflation and growth. It can go higher and lower and to have four different portfolios essentially that make up your entire portfolio that gets you balanced.
Ray Dalio
594
AI is a tool. The choice about how it gets deployed is ours.
Oren Etzioni
595
My favorite singer is Canton Jones, a gospel hip-hop artist – when I’m on the bus going to a game, I listen to him in my own little world, singing and dancing; he gets me ready to play every time.
Maya Moore
596
Art is like wine. It gets better with age.
Shobana
597
With each step I take, I see that my ability to perform gets a little better. So until it starts getting worse, I’m going to keep moving forward.
Rivers Cuomo
598
I grew up doing sitcoms and theater and even playing with the Beach Boys, where you’re programmed to perform, your body gets into a rhythm and you know it has to perform.
John Stamos
599
Greed has been with human beings forever. We have a number of things in our species that you would call ‘the dark side,’ and greed is one of them. If you don’t put certain structures in place or restrictions on those parts of our being that come from that dark place, then it gets out of control.
Michael Moore
600
There is one thing that gets you out of bed in the morning, and that is discipline. Because your dreams and your goals are not there waking up for you in the morning.
Jocko Willink
601
Whenever I cook, I think of Spanish music, so I always have to listen to some sort of salsa. It gets your body going.
Action Bronson
602
Radio is a really strange business now, too. There’s a very narrow door and a very few people control what gets played.
Taylor Hanson
603
Everyone gets hurt, but I’ve probably had the most injuries.
Johnny Knoxville
604
There’s a basic principle about consumer electronics: it gets more powerful all the time and it gets cheaper all the time. that’s true of all types of consumer electronics.
Trip Hawkins
605
If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won’t, you most assuredly won’t. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad.
Denis Waitley
606
Once it gets to two strikes, it’s time to battle, put something in play, and try to get the job done.
Aaron Judge
607
The great thing about my two lives is I love them both. I’m very ambitious and nothing gets in the way of me practising and concentrating on winning golf tournaments. But then I come home and get back to normality.
Rory McIlroy
608
A world where everyone creates content gets confusing pretty quickly without a good search engine.
Ethan Zuckerman
609
Even though Mr. Trump is a billionaire, he is still able to relate to average working men and women. The billionaire gets along with the bricklayer.
Peter Navarro
610
Julia Louis-Dreyfus is just perfect in ‘Veep.’ She gets to show off the spiky claws beneath her patrician finesse. The obvious way to play ‘Veep’ would be to make Louis-Dreyfus a folksy heroine, one with more common sense or populist heart than her enemies. But she isn’t one.
Rob Sheffield
611
It gets very tiring when you are filming and then taken to a room to do school work. I never get any rest time. It is either work or school. Once you are an adult, you get to take a nap in between shots.
Cameron Bright
612
Motherhood has a very humanizing effect. Everything gets reduced to essentials.
Meryl Streep
613
The common question that gets asked in business is, ‘why?’ That’s a good question, but an equally valid question is, ‘why not?’
Jeff Bezos
614
Making a film is like putting out a fire with sieve. There are so many elements, and it gets so complicated.
George Lucas
615
It is very, very difficult for a playwright to write a scene in which a young man has his first deep experience of sex with a girl whom he found immensely attractive, is fully satisfied by this event and gets up and blinds a lot of horses.
Peter Shaffer
616
The punters know that the horse named Morality rarely gets past the post, whereas the nag named Self-interest always runs a good race.
Gough Whitlam
617
He who walks in the middle of the roads gets hit from both sides.
George P. Shultz

When you get to work with a good director, an actor’s job gets reduced to half.
Vicky Kaushal
619
The old Devil gets mad when you’re trying to do good. Pray that God will move the stumbling blocks.
Mahalia Jackson
620
Capitalism does a number of things very well: it helps create an entrepreneurial spirit; it gets people motivated to come up with new ideas, and that’s a good thing.
Bernie Sanders
621
If at first you don’t succeed, find out if the loser gets anything.
William Lyon Phelps
622
The way to get things done is not to mind who gets the credit for doing them.
Benjamin Jowett
623
When your arm gets hit, the ball is not going to go where you want it to.
John Madden
624
My wife and I both love cooking – I am an advanced male – so we argue about who gets to rustle up dinner.
Stephen Bayley
625
A lot of people, especially comedians, just feel like, ‘Oh, I can be charming and whatever, and have fun, and everybody is just going to like me.’ But you’ve got to work. There’s got to be a real work ethic that gets you better.
Terry Crews
626
I can live a totally normal life and do everything I want to do just as long as I take my medication. My body will give me signals if it gets weak or fatigued, so I know when I need to take a break.
Toni Braxton
627
This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer.
Will Rogers
628
Salman Khan did not help me get movie offers. What rubbish! Will any producer take a risk of millions of rupees at the instance of any person? Everyone knows that the film industry is highly competitive, and one gets a job on one’s talent only and not on any recommendation.
Katrina Kaif
629
At one point or another, everybody gets called ‘the new James Dean.’
Luke Perry
630
People don’t realize it, but no one lives that rock and roll life 24-7. They think it’s hundreds of bottles of champagne flowing and private jets and money. But there’s a lot of time when you’re traveling – time to think, time to be lonely. Sometimes it gets to you.
Lenny Kravitz
631
How can it be that the homosexual movement, at one or two percent of the population, gets treated with such solicitude while the Catholic population, which is over a quarter of the country, is given the back of the hand?
William Barr
632
Rahul Gandhi gets a copy of every programme that has been started by the Centre during Parliamentary procedure, but he has got no time to read. He has got time to go to night clubs.
Subramanian Swamy
633
I’m naturally curious, and I’ve always been driven by my curiosity. Curiosity gets people excited. Curiosity leads to new ideas, new jobs, new industries.
Anne Sweeney
634
I’m the type of woman you might say is too good. I’ll massage a man’s feet, have dinner cooked when he gets home. But once they leave, the door is closed, and the locks are changed.
Angie Stone
635
When I see out-of-shape, overweight people huffing and puffing in the gym, my eyes well up with tears of pride. I want to walk over to them, hug them, and say, ‘Good on you for getting in here. It gets better!’ You know why? Because they’re challenging themselves.
Steven Crowder
636
People complain about the rich-and-poor divide. It’s crazy, no doubt about it. But what gets me is that today, a billionaire or head of state on their smartphone has the same direct access to information as a homeless person has on a smartphone – or a person in Bangladesh or Papua New Guinea.
Sebastian Thrun
637
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
Joseph P. Kennedy
638
Do not be afraid to ask for help. Nobody gets through college on their own.
Michelle Obama
639
The Monkees are like the mafia. You’re in for life. Nobody gets out.
Davy Jones
640
It’s definitely a privilege to be able to do what you love to do; it’s not something that everyone gets to do, so I feel really good about that.
Awkwafina
641
People ought to be slapped up side of the head, not always get what they expect. That’s why sometimes the bad guy gets away.
John Sandford
642
When ignorance gets started it knows no bounds.
Will Rogers
643
You have to have passion for what you do, or else it’s difficult when the going gets tough.
Nathan Chen

If I win seven tournaments in a row, I get so confident I’m in a cloud. A loss gets me eager again.
Chris Evert
645
A champion is someone who gets up when he can’t.
Jack Dempsey
646
In Chicago, you have an absence of strong family units, and that absence gets filled by gangs. You have a failure in the school system, after-school programs and other social programs to help keep kids off the streets. Amnesty International speaks to that in some way, by keeping these issues in the forefront.
Lupe Fiasco
647
I have been so great in boxing they had to create an image like Rocky, a white image on the screen, to counteract my image in the ring. America has to have its white images, no matter where it gets them. Jesus, Wonder Woman, Tarzan and Rocky.
Muhammad Ali
648
Also, I just think of Draco and he gets me in the right mood. He just keeps getting worse and worse.
Tom Felton
649
Humour is like violence. They both come to you unexpectedly, and the more unpredictable they both are, the better it gets.

I don’t mind getting punched in the face. It kind of wakes me up and gets me excited.
CM Punk

Well I think the media has a very powerful influence on almost anything and everything we do because the general public gets their perception of what is going on in things they don’t have immediate access to from what they get through the media.
Anthony Fauci

Think of it this way: If you got a flat tire, what would you do? Change the tire? Or get out of the car and slash the other three tires? No! Get back on the road. Don’t dwell on it; don’t beat yourself up. That gets you nowhere.
Jillian Michaels

‘Check Yes Or No’ is a song that I reference in ”90s Country.’ George Strait had a very crafty lyric: it tells a story then comes back around. Never gets old.
Walker Hayes

But listen, there’s a reason that ‘Baby Shark’ is the the most-watched or the second most-watched video on YouTube of all time. It’s a catchy one. It just gets you right down deep.
Phil Dunster

While consumer social like Facebook and Twitter gets the headlines, perhaps the greatest untapped potential for social networking lies in business applications.
Ryan Holmes

What gets in our way is history and culture and religion and economic conditions. It is part of the hypnosis of our social conditioning.
Deepak Chopra

The straight man has the best part. He gets to be in the show and see it, too.
Andy Griffith

Everything passes. Nobody gets anything for keeps. And that’s how we’ve got to live.
Haruki Murakami

I have been relegated as a player, and I have suffered the feeling of failure. It is awful, and when you are part of an international outfit that gets so close, and you don’t do it, it is not a good feeling. I don’t want that again. I want to be part of a team that does something no one else has done.
Chris Coleman

No one gets angry at a mathematician or a physicist whom he or she doesn’t understand, or at someone who speaks a foreign language, but rather at someone who tampers with your own language.
Jacques Derrida
661
Much of the time, the things we feel guilty about are not our issues. Another person behaves inappropriately or in some way violates our boundaries. We challenge the behavior, and the person gets angry and defensive. Then we feel guilty.
Melody Beattie

Netanyahu is pressured easily, gets into a panic, and loses his senses… to run a country like Israel a leader needs to have reason and judgment and nerves of steel, two traits he does not have.
Ariel Sharon
663
The ego mind both professes its desire for love and does everything possible to repel it, or if it gets here anyway, to sabotage it. That is why dealing with issues like control, anger, and neediness is the most important work in preparing ourselves for love.
Marianne Williamson
664
Geese always support each other. When a goose gets injured two birds always accompany it down to the ground. Just as geese do, we must support each other.
Emma Hayes

Everyone falls in love, everyone gets their heart broken.
Keith Whitley

The first man gets the oyster, the second man gets the shell.
Andrew Carnegie

Let’s assume for the moment that the logic behind Presidents Day is actually sound for certain presidents. Why not have a separate holiday for Lincoln and one for Washington – as we used to do, before we became so concerned with the ‘Every President Gets a Trophy’ ethos?
Ben Shapiro
668
He did not arrive at this conclusion by the decent process of quiet, logical deduction, nor yet by the blinding flash of glorious intuition, but by the shoddy, untidy process halfway between the two by which one usually gets to know things.
Margery Allingham

I got scars on my face that tell some kind of story. I’m looking in the mirror, and I got one scar that’s really two scars – half from a baseball bat and half from playing football in college. I’ll tell you, though, after a while, your face gets so wrinkled up you can hardly see them.
Kris Kristofferson

On ‘EastEnders,’ if someone gets surprising news on the phone, the scene ends with them looking at their handset in amazement. No one in real life does that.
Robert Webb
671
Anytime something starts to feel like a popularity contest or not about the music, I’d rather just not be involved. I’m not a big high-fiver. That really gets to people around me when we have a No. 1 or something big happen. I’m not a big, ‘Let’s go have a party about it!’
Gary Allan
672
What gets lost is that the Republican Party has always been the party of civil rights and voting rights.
Rand Paul
673
The business always gets in the way of basketball.
Jason Kidd

As a former prosecutor, I never presented a case in front of the grand jury that didn’t result in an indictment. Bottom line: If a prosecutor wants to indict a case, the case gets indicted.
Sunny Hostin

When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads.
Ron Paul
676
Profound thoughts and profound experiences get revealed to be tricks that we play on ourselves, and poetry gets revealed to be just, like, some dumb words that somebody put in an interesting order.
Phil Elverum
677
I think we felt like we’d done so much as young kids that we didn’t know how to top ourselves. We were like, ‘Is this where it ends? Is this as good as it gets? Maybe we’re done. Throw in the towel.’
AJ Michalka

In any profession it gets to be a grind.
Denzel Washington

You tell people that all the time, ‘Jail’s the worst place ever and you don’t want to go there,’ which is true but at the same time you see it’s filled with a bunch of people like guy is drinking on a porch somewhere and he gets arrested for public intoxication. He’s going to miss work. He’s not a bad guy per se.
Stephen Glover

Vision gets the dreams started. Dreaming employs your God-given imagination to reinforce the vision. Both are part of something I believe is absolutely necessary to building the life of a champion, a winner, a person of high character who is consistently at the top of whatever game he or she is in.
Emmitt Smith

Sometimes it gets a little too bubblegum for me, but what I do love about KPop videos is their attention to detail, and their choreography and dancing are always spot-on.
Bebe Rexha
682
Many people believe the whole catastrophe is the oil we spill, but that gets diluted and eventually disarmed over time. In fact, the oil we don’t spill, the oil we collect, refine and use, produces CO2 and other gases that don’t get diluted.
Carl Safina

Sometimes America gets tempted by the glitz and glamour.
Martin Henderson

I think that any female who gets asked if she’s a feminist… it’s silly… it’s so interesting when people ask females if they’re a feminist. Of course every female wants to be equal!
Melanie Martinez

Power is what men seek and any group that gets it will abuse it.
Lincoln Steffens

When a man retires, his wife gets twice the husband but only half the income.
Chi Chi Rodriguez

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
Robert Frost

People who try to tackle failure attract failure. The more you indulge in analysis, it gets tougher. So just keep making mistakes and learn.
