He was the main guy at Manchester United, and he’s a guy I really look up to and who I learn from a lot because we share the same agent. Here and there, he sends a bit of advice to me, and it helps me improve. But I’m Romelu Lukaku – I’m not Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
When we have a trans woman playing a trans woman, then you see, ‘Oh wait, this is what trans really is. This is what it looks like: a person.’ That sends a message to trans kids that they are valid in their identities that they are allowed to exist.
Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is.
Tim sends me a fairly ambitious workup in notebook form noting the passages we’re going to cover and the chronology of the biblical events, and his commentaries on those things he’s read and written.
Mission Control in Houston receives our e-mails through a satellite and then sends them out to our family and friends. Likewise, any e-mails written to us go through the Mission Control, and then they send them up to us via a satellite.
It’s the one with that panel of ultra-chichi folks. The one called ‘What’s My Line?’ It sends me straight up the wall. I call it ‘The Snob Family.’
In the real world, I see conservatives volunteering at adoption agencies, at churches, at bake sales and the local American Legion Post while the only charity a progressive sends is a smug sermon on fair share and what fairness is.
The whole point of the kingdom of God is Jesus has come to bear witness to the true truth, which is nonviolent. When God wants to take charge of the world, he doesn’t send in the tanks. He sends in the poor and the meek.
Although computer memory is no longer expensive, there’s always a finite size buffer somewhere. When a big piece of news arrives, everybody sends a message to everybody else, and the buffer fills.
In Brazil, the coach respects the player’s characteristics. In Europe, they are used to playing with two lines of four players, and they don’t want to know what you can do. There, if you are a forward, the coach sends you on to the pitch just to run. You have to run, and that’s it.
When the hospital sends for me, when the ambulance comes and I ease my way out of the world, I’d rather be in Detroit, Michigan, than Lenox Hill.
When I’m using the Internet, I have 25 tabs open, and even if somebody sends me… something interesting, odds are I’ll forget about it, or it’ll get kind of lost in the shuffle.
I want to highlight that Italy, every year, sends 6 billion euros in cash to Brussels. I cannot give these 6 billion euros to Brussels and then let them damage us on the fronts of agriculture, migration, fishing, commerce and finance. Why am I giving 6 billion to receive nothing in return?
Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech always sends me down some path, some trajectory of some creative idea.
Anyone who sends their children now to government schools usually does it because they can’t afford private education. I went to a government college where 350 out of 400 girls said their brothers go to private schools.
If there’s a conservative district and we have a commitment from someone to join the Freedom Caucus, that sends a very strong message.
For every $5 that Boston’s economy sends up to Beacon Hill, the state gives only $1 back to us.
The school-room sends men to the Legislature, to the bench, and the executive office. The bar-room sends them to the scaffold and hell.
The attorney general would call at 5 o’clock in the evening and say: ‘Tomorrow morning we are going to try to integrate the University of Mississippi. Get us a memo on what we’re likely to do, and what we can do if the governor sends the National Guard there.’
The saloon is a liar. It promises good cheer and sends sorrow.
I don’t care if you’re a man, if you’re a player: If God sends you that one and your heart is in it, you’ll work it out.
There are joys which long to be ours. God sends ten thousands truths, which come about us like birds seeking inlet; but we are shut up to them, and so they bring us nothing, but sit and sing awhile upon the roof, and then fly away.
How can you compare my life to any other MEP? I mean, come on, it’s crackers, isn’t it? Look, other MEPs do five days a week in Brussels and pop home for weekends. I’m working seven bloody days a week, all the hours God sends. If you include the socialising, it’s over 100 hours a week.
Checking email every 45 seconds is not only compulsive, it’s presumptuous. It suggests a belief that anyone who sends us a message needs us to read it immediately, even if the message is from SkyMall telling us our Bigfoot Garden Yeti statue has shipped.
What I also love about Lorrie Moore stories is they take me a long time to read. They’re not easy for me because each sentence, I feel like, is so rich and dense, it just sends me off in a thousand directions.
The so-called Defense of Marriage Act is a valueless tradition that, like laws against interracial marriage that were finally overturned by the Supreme Court in 1967, undermines the spirit of love and commitment that couples share and sends the wrong message to society.
I am practically in the employ of Mr. Nobel. I have to meet everyone he sends my way.
My mother still sends a cake to the office for my birthday.
I’ve been lucky, my wife’s been amazing. Any time we’ve had cricket matches she sends me to the spare room to get some sleep. She takes care of everything.
I remember when we first bought Teleflora, I made a very expensive mistake when I produced a brochure with the slogan, ‘The way America sends love.’ The bouquets and prices I pictured could not be duplicated by the florist – they were too expensive. I had relied on people I thought were in touch with the marketplace.
That which the fountain sends forth returns again to the fountain.
I think the wall is stupid; it’s a waste of the taxpayer’s money. We need the money for job growth, infrastructure, 100 other things… it sends a bad message.
I’m a big believer in the power of visualizations. And so are neuroscientists. Numerous studies have proven how merely imagining positive circumstances sends blood flowing from negative brain regions to positive ones.
Like most things in life, the beard always comes first. And it sends out some kind of pheromonal call to the universe that brings the roles appropriate to it.
I think it is important to speak your mind. Tolerance of the ignorance sends the wrong message to kids.
PR and marketing doesn’t sell books. It gets attention for them. It sends readers to bookstores and websites to read a few pages.
Frankly, returning the briefing is something that sends a message to the world that we’re not afraid to engage. We’re not afraid. We believe in the free press.
If we want an international trade deal that advances the interests of our own people, then perhaps we don’t need a ‘fast-track’ but a regular track: where the president sends us any proposal he deems worthy, and we review it on its own merits.
I don’t listen to music. I very rarely listen to music. I only listen for information. I listen when a friend sends me a song or a new record.
Just because someone sends you some gloves you don’t need to keep making several posts with them. That’s not how it works, you have to value your image.
You always know. You have basic needs, and when they aren’t met, your body sends signals. Hunger, loneliness, exhaustion, thirst, and fear are all signals that something is missing, and you need to act on it now.
Just like the brain consists of billions of highly connected neurons, a basic operating unit in a neural network is a neuron-like node. It takes input from other nodes and sends output to others.
The President sends us a billion-page paper that shows how he would spend the money if he were spending the money. He doesn’t have the authority to spend the money. He doesn’t spend $1 of the money.
When someone sends you an email, they are knocking on your door. And when you open the attachment, without looking through the peephole to see who it is, you just opened the door and let a stranger into your life, where everything you care about is.
I’m so not interested in gossip. It just gives me the creeps. I love the work; I love what I do. If somebody sends me an interview that has any connotation of something that’s not interesting or genuine, I’m not interested. I really detach myself from it.
I love that theatre can be political. You can go watch a play; it sends out messages, and you can go away thinking differently to the way you thought about it before.
For me, writing a novel goes on for years, and the solitude goes on, too. It tends to swallow me at times. I know it’s a problem when my husband sends the dog in to retrieve me.
In day-to-day life, our brain sends lots of signals. In acting, there are no signals. You have to believe in what you are trying to portray.
