John Waters
From a spinner’s perspective, in India it was never easy for me to judge where to stand: how far forward, how far back, because on Indian wickets the ball does not carry as much as abroad.

If the ’80s were about Christian Lacroix ball gowns, the ’90s give us wealthy women who either go to work or pretend to, and want office suits or slip dresses they can wear to dinner parties – ergo, the minimalism of Prada, Jil Sander, and others.

I got into acting for the chance to be many different people and many different characters. I love hiding in a role and doing the research. If there is an opportunity to change my body, I will change my body. I’ll slip in and disguise myself in a role. That is a really big treat for me.
Ashley Bell

Louise Bourgeois
Anybody who has a career is going to have to deal with a rumor in their time, or something that usually isn’t true. I have a great team behind me and a family that supports me. I just care too much about my career. I have been working too long to let it slip away for something stupid.

Zoe Kravitz
Adolescence is society’s permission slip for combining physical maturity with psychological irresponsibility.

Even though concussions affect women more often than men, there’s not a lot of concussion research about women specifically. You can slip and fall and hit your head and have a concussion. And unless you know what to do, and unless you’re able to take the right steps, you may not be able to recover.
Elana Meyers
You don’t want to let your form slip because it can be hard to get back from that.

Write yourself a permission slip to be surprised by someone’s potential. Who knows? One day that person could be you.
Sherri Shepherd

George Foreman
When you’re not authentic to yourself, you’re lying. You’re going to get found out and you’re going to slip up.

Henry Rollins
These heroes of finance are like beads on a string; when one slips off, all the rest follow.

If you find yourself caring about old stories and regre

If you find yourself caring about old stories and regret the ways in which they slip out of reach of young audiences, you may well conjure up the means to put these tales into young peoples imaginations.
Michael Rosen
I resent the label on cigarettes. If they’re going to warn you, why don’t they put the same sign at the entrance to every freeway or on every banana that’s sold? You can slip on the peel, you know.
Peter Graves
All day long the door of the sub-conscious remains just ajar; we slip through to the other side, and return again, as easily and secretly as a cat.
Walter de La Mare
In L.A., we have a saying – ‘What do you do?’ It’s less of a question and more of a self-defense mechanism for wayward screenwriters looking to slip you a first draft, or the occasional actor looking to get in on the latest shoot. But I hate the question because of my own answer – I write about games.
Rob Manuel
To avoid congestion, I get up at 5:10, grab a slice of raisin toast, and leave the house at 6 A.M. My husband, Tim Dunn, who works for an environmental agency, is still asleep when I slip out, and I find that rather annoying.
Ellen Stofan
No use to shout at them to pay attention. If the situations, the materials, the problems before the child do not interest him, his attention will slip off to what does interest him, and no amount of exhortation of threats will bring it back.
John Holt
From a good lie in the middle of a fairway bunker, I’ll make the same swing as I do from an average fairway lie.

It’s only when the ball is sitting down in the sand that I’ll make some modifications.
Ernie Els
If I’d been living in Berlin in 1933-34, could I possibly have foreseen the Holocaust and all the corollary horrors of World War II? And if I had, would I have done anything about it? I also started to wonder: how does a culture slip its moorings?
Erik Larson
People watch me, waiting for me to slip up, so my privacy has gone – but that’s a price you pay.
Samantha Mumba

Sam Kean
You want people to buy you as just about anything. So if they think that you’re one thing, it’s hard to slip into, you know, all these other things.
Rachel McAdams

MaryJanice Davidson
I reveled in the most basic rules and techniques that are the foundation of professional cooking. For example, it is essential to use a sharp knife: the sharper the knife, the more fluid and precise your work and the less likely you are to get hurt. Dull knives are a danger – they slip far more often.
Gail Simmons
I try to write as serious as possible, and then a joke slips in.
Jeff Lindsay
I want to sit down, and I want to laugh. Nothing works better for me than watching somebody slip on a banana peel.

Reputation is the cornerstone of power. Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once it slips, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides. Make your reputation unassailable.
Robert Greene

Jerry Spinelli
When a big club takes the lead at home, then they cannot let it slip and be turned over.
Filippo Inzaghi

One has to secrete a jelly in which to slip quotations down people’s throats – and one always secretes too much jelly.
Virginia Woolf
Once in a while, I’ll slip and get off my vegan diet and have egg whites in the morning, that’s a good source of protein while I’m out on the road. If I can feel my body starting to tire, those are good to keep you healthy.
Travis Barker
Michael Derrick Hudson is not the first person to slip into the identity of a person of color to give himself some perceived advantage. He can slip back into his life and not walk around in this world as a person of color who endures racism.
Jenny Zhang
The moment I let fear slip in is the moment that the fights are gonna start getting closer and closer.
Jon Jones
We’ve had to pay to play. We’ve had to borrow kit. We’ve had to train on a Friday night. Maybe a lot of boys, given that opportunity, would slip away, whereas we’ve had the mentality to go, ‘I really want this. I’m going to show that I can do this.’
Steph Houghton
The best way to stay cool is to stay focused - you have

The best way to stay cool is to stay focused – you have to focus on your job. As soon as you take your eye off that, you will slip up, so you have got to have everything 100 per cent on what is in front of you.
Owen Farrell
When I get home, I’m not the boss like I am at work – I slip into a more feminine role. I take everything off and put on my Stella McCartney silk robe. I’ll put on a red lip or red nails, and it lifts my mood. Sexy underwear also gives you a spark.
Miranda Kerr
Without practice, just playing games, a lot of habits kind of slip away.
Paul Millsap
I lead two totally separate lives. There are times when I have to slip into rock star mode.
Martin Gore
I only hope that one day, America will recognize what the rest of the world already has known, that our indigenous music – gospel, blues, jazz and R&B – is the heart and soul of all popular music; and that we cannot afford to let this legacy slip into obscurity, I’m telling you.
Quincy Jones
Note, besides, that it is no more immoral to directly rob citizens than to slip indirect taxes into the price of goods that they cannot do without.

Dolly Parton
Yes, people can crack under pressure, but I think people can also let things slip out when they’re comfortable.
Betty Gabriel
I’m inspired by all those women in the ’60s – they look so put-together and cool at the same time, and they all were moms – moms and career women. I do wear heels, though. Pretty much always. I need to feel good about myself, so even if it’s casual, I’ll slip them on.
Julia Restoin Roitfeld
I am gluten free, dairy free and sugar free, although I do slip up on the sugar sometimes because I have a big sweet tooth!
Tabatha Coffey

Madeleine M. Kunin
We are all amateur attention economists, hoarding and bartering our moments – or watching them slip away down the cracks of a thousand YouTube clips.
Tom Chatfield

My view is that you show Messi one side or the other, and if he goes past you, he goes past you. But if he slips it through your legs, then you have to obstruct him and take the foul. Just don’t ever let yourself be nutmegged.
Paul Scholes
Do not allow to slip away from you freedoms the people who came before you won with such hard knocks.
D. H. Lawrence
A guy like Darrelle Revis has been in the NFL a long time. They study tendencies. They know what you’re doing from the way you line up. When you run a route, you almost have to be perfect at it. You can’t slip. Timing has to be perfect with the quarterback going against a smart guy like him.
DeAndre Hopkins
I don’t spend my hours worrying how to slip a social message into my act.
Bill Cosby
‘Hedwig’ was the first audition my agent ever sent me on. I still have the slip of paper where I wrote down the appointment. I wrote down, ‘Headwitch and the Angry Itch. Yitzhak. Croatian ex-drag queen billed as the last Jewess of the Balkans Krystal Nacht.’
Miriam Shor
Inspiration is a force not to be wrestled with. You can try, but it will slip under the cracks every time.
Tara Stiles
When you’re undercover you try to stay as true to your identity as you are. You know who you are, and you know how you normally function. If you try to put on a pretense, such as assuming a fake voice, you have to put on that fake voice all of the time. And you can’t afford to slip out of it. It’s too dangerous.
Ron Stallworth
I studied Paul Simon’s ‘Slip Slidin’ Away’ and ‘Still Crazy After All These Years.’ I wanted to explore adult themes, portraying the hurt that’s in even a good relationship.
LP
I still get butterflies when I’m doing a runway show. The music starts, you’re wearing these gorgeous clothes and your nervous about your high heels, if your shoes are going to break, if your going to slip or do something wrong.
Joan Smalls
You cannot have players come on and not make the impact because the game will slowly slip away from you. It is important you are ready.
Danny Ings
I still get butterflies when I’m doing a runway show. The music starts, you’re wearing these gorgeous clothes and your nervous about your high heels, if your shoes are going to break, if your going to slip or do something wrong.
Karlie Kloss
When dozens of company results are flooding newspaper offices everyday, an occasional fraudster slips in what looks like an authentic press release, with fake company results/information aimed at manipulating share prices.
Sucheta Dalal
It’s mind-altering when you slip into someone else’s shoes. That’s psychedelic, man.
Bryan Cranston
Occasionally I’ll have a slip, and I might watch ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ or something. But for the most part, I am out on the reality shows.
Bobcat Goldthwait
We live in a time of safe spaces, where micro-aggressions are monitored, where offending someone is the ultimate sin, where white people can’t slip up, even once, even by accident.
Tomi Lahren
Blue slips enable home-state senators to ensure that the federal judges serving in their states are highly qualified.
Mazie Hirono
Life is full of banana skins. You slip, you carry on.

Life is full of banana skins. You slip, you carry on.
Daphne Guinness
I would say Triple H is the biggest influence on my career. He’s almost like a father figure. If I slip up, or there’s a problem, he lets me know.
Enzo Amore
A trade war would be a disaster for the world. It’s very easy to slip into a trade war.
Jack Ma
I used to save all my rejection slips because I told myself, one day I’m going to autograph these and auction them. And then I lost the box.
James Lee Burke
Perhaps the best thing about biographies is that they enable us to slip the strictures of time and provide a bracing corrective to our tendency to see everything in the dark glass of our own era, with all its blind spots, motes, beams, and distortions.
Eric Metaxas
All the other kids in ninth grade were drawing hot rods and cocker spaniels and getting blue ribbons in art class. I was getting rejection slips from the ‘Saturday Evening Post.’
Brad Holland
I think, in life, we’re vulnerable, or human beings are vulnerable, or men are vulnerable. I think it’s just a question, you know, choosing when you let that mask slip off, which I think all men do – they just usually don’t do it in front of people.
Justin Theroux
I possess the unique ability to slip into a coma at any moment’s notice.
Robin Lopez
For a big club, you can accept that the team does not win the league because it is in transition, but you cannot afford to slip out of the Champions League spot.
