I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.
In all affairs it’s a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted.
When you get to a certain age, you have to make a decision for yourself: if you want to get old in the industry, and you want to play maybe a few parts that come along now and then – or what else in life interests you?
I was watching ‘Pulp Fiction’ when we were making ‘Now and Then’. I didn’t care about ‘Now and Then,’ you know?
I have a taste for a lot of different kinds of music… everything, from hip-hop to jazz to R&B to top 40 to alternative. There’s a lot of good music out there. Every now and then, I’ll flip through VH1 and watch the videos… the only thing I really don’t listen to is country.
I cheat every now and then, but the foundation of my eating habits is organic. I don’t like to eat a lot of processed foods. So it’s fresh vegetables, fresh herbs and meat without all of the antibiotics and preservatives.
The art of the bird is to conceal its nest both as to position and as to material, but now and then it is betrayed into weaving into its structure showy and bizarre bits of this or that, which give its secret away and which seem to violate all the traditions of its kind.
You’ve got to work hard, got to outwork the other guy and got to outwork the other team. Sometimes outsmart them every now and then, but it all starts with the work.
What has influenced my life more than any other single thing has been my stammer. Had I not stammered I would probably… have gone to Cambridge as my brothers did, perhaps have become a don and every now and then published a dreary book about French literature.
I always think of a show like a plant – a little pruning now and then keeps it healthy, but you shouldn’t pull it out and chop the roots up.
When I read a book I seem to read it with my eyes only, but now and then I come across a passage, perhaps only a phrase, which has a meaning for me, and it becomes part of me.
Every now and then, as a composer and producer, it’s important to write music for yourself.
I love reference books, especially collections of memorable quotations, world almanacs, and atlases. Facts to me are like candy or popcorn, small, tasty delights, and I like to gorge on them now and then.
That was kind of scary. You got the sense as a little kid that you might be at risk now, and then you’re like, ‘Why are we at risk? It’s because my grandfather is in charge of all of this.’ You can’t really realize the magnitude of a job like that when you are eight.
I hear a really good pop song every now and then. ‘ROAR’ by Katy Perry, I love that! ‘Poker Face’… Oh! What a song! And ‘Rolling in the Deep’… Oh!
I want them to listen to me for what I am saying. And I think the best way to do that is to sniff my armpits, and like, sit and burp every now and then.
Sometimes I don’t even pull my shoes off for six weeks at a time, except, you know, just to take a shower. I just take breaks between 24 hours a day, just a break now and then, it don’t take me long to rest; maybe 20 to30 minutes sometime, or maybe an hour.
I made a very slatternly mother, notably unkeen on housework, unaware that homes need to be cleaned now and then, and too often to be found with a cigarette in one hand and a drink in the other.
In China, the rules of the market are not always that transparent. So it’s very hard. Also, the national TV networks are all owned by the government, so our shows are subject to censorship by the networks. Every now and then, we are told that certain subjects cannot be talked about. There are frustrations.
I never imagined working with CEOs, congressmen or the military, yet I make regular visits to the Pentagon, stop by the Capitol now and then and sit down with leaders of all kinds of companies.
I think I’m an actor. You can hire me. I can do a good job. But you also have to get lucky now and then. Every film-maker knows how hard it is to do a good film. You have to just make many, and see how lucky you get.
Ten years from now, we’ll still be talked about as the first gay couple that ESPN had in ‘The Body Issue.’ You might not realize, in the moment, the impact that something like that can have. Every now and then, when you talk to people and hear the reactions, maybe we helped somebody.
When you have people catering to you non-stop, you lose it. You need someone to kick you in the butt every now and then!
This is a lifetime job. You don’t look at it, you know, now and then. It doesn’t really matter. When the market comes down, then I buy my land very cheaply, so I make my money on that.
Every now and then you think about your life, what you would like to be, you start at Number 1 and you go down to 100. And down at the bottom, 100, was – Stage. Go figure. That would be the last thing. It terrified me, man. But I had to do it.
I used to shop in ASDA all the time. Every now and then I still go in to get a little salad for lunch.
Every now and then we get one voice which stands out, a really unique voice we embrace, like a Josh Thomas.
Can you name a state in the United States that doesn’t get some interesting weather every now and then? No!
I’m quite private. And I never wanted to be the biggest star in the world, really. So in that sense I’ve got a good balance of doing great shows, of making an appearance every now and then and writing music, and I don’t really have to do much else.
Every now and then, I deserve to say what I feel.
I have a phone obsession. It’s really hard on set sometimes because I’ll be checking Instagram, and then I have to remember, ‘Oh, crap, I have to shoot a scene or rehearse.’ Every now and then, I have to turn it off and live my life.
I’m not really a professional composer; I just compose now and then when someone asks me to.
I am a tender, beautiful and loving guy that happens to slap a photographer now and then because they get in my way.
I grew up in Florida, so every now and then, we’d have a garter snake in the lawn. But I’m not super okay with them.
Of course I treat myself every now and then. Once a month I might have pizza and red wine and maybe a dessert, but that’s it.
I’m always in the kitchen, cooking and experimenting – I love it. And every now and then I think, ‘I should write a cookbook’ or, ‘I should write for food magazines.’ And then I get drawn back to writing fiction again.
Where I came from, there’s not a reason to have a lot of hope. So much trouble, everywhere. But every now and then, someone makes it out and makes it big, and that person has an impact on a lot of other people.
My dad every now and then will toe that line and be like, You could try women!’ And I’m like Don’t. It’s almost an endearing kind of homophobia, if such a thing exists.
We should look back now and then. Our politicians should look back every now and then.
Every now and then you have to be a little nasty, a little aggressive on the floor. That’s part of being a basketball player.
Every now and then there might be a beat someone turned down that I have as an unused beat. But everything that predominantly matches the artist in my 30 years of doing this, it was me walking in and sitting there with no drums, no samples, no nothing, and making a beat on the spot.
It’s important to slow down, every now and then, for no other reason than to call someone to say ‘Hi.’ It doesn’t have to be a long conversation. Just calling out of the blue does more to let someone know you still care about them than nearly anything else.
There are going to be birthdays, weddings, BBQs and work dos and you are entitled to have a few drinks, a slice of cake, a pepperoni pizza or an Easter egg every now and then.
God works wonders now and then; Behold a lawyer, an honest man.
As you may recall, Truman was extremely unpopular when he finally left Washington in 1953, thanks largely to the Korean War. Today, however, he is thought to have been a solidly good president, a ‘Near Great’ even, in the terminology of those surveys of historians they do every now and then.
I taught and studied dance in college, and for over a decade, I thought that would be my career: tap dancer, ballet dancer, modern dancer. I still find myself doing some tumbling or interpretive dancing in the grocery store every now and then.
I would say from top to bottom, the SEC is strongest. Every now and then, another conference is going to have a great number one team. But week in and week out, having to play a really tough schedule that’s preparing you for the postseason, there’s no better conference than the SEC.
Every now and then, I am reminded it’s not always about politics. It’s about people.
It is good a philosopher should remind himself, now and then, that he is a particle pontificating on infinity.
Y’know, there’s nothin’ like tearing up a good club now and then.
I fix things now and then, more often tweak HTML and make scripts to do things.
I keep in touch with all the guys that I was training with in Chicago during the pre-draft process; Nik Stauskas, Mitch McGary, Adrien Payne, and Dougie McDermott. We all got pretty close training together and we just keep tabs every now and then.
