I’d like to write some songs that are so good that nobody understands them. Not even myself.
I have spoken to Donald Trump about this. He understands the dramatic budget cuts our military has faced.
I can tell you, because I serve on so many nonprofit boards – where half of us are academics and half of us are from Wall Street – that there’s no CEO who understands at all a derivative. All they know is that somebody tells them in their organization, ‘We’ve got a wonderful profit center.’
A man thinks that by mouthing hard words he understands hard things.

My wife is used to Formula One, and she understands the life.
My food hero would be someone like Elizabeth David, because I think what she did for Britain was amazing. Also David Thompson, an Australian chef who does Thai food and really understands the basis of it, has always been very inspiring.
I think every journalist understands when they are the beneficiary of hot information that, yes, they have a scoop, but they’re also being used. Part of your responsibility as a journalist is to tell the story of why that information is coming to you, consistent with the ground rules of your sourcing.
The elite cannot understand why President Trump is liked by so many Americans, nor why people flock to his rallies. Yet, it’s in part because they believe he ‘gets’ them. They believe he understands and, most importantly, respects their economic values and their dreams.
My characters live inside my head for a long time before I actually start a book about them. Then, they become so real to me I talk about them at the dinner table as if they are real. Some people consider this weird. But my family understands.

I am confident that the Defense Department understands JSTARS is a major priority for Congress and will complete the process of updating the JSTARS fleet in a timely manner.

Being injured is something that happens in this sport. Anybody who gets into it understands that.
Mathematics are the result of mysterious powers which no one understands, and which the unconscious recognition of beauty must play an important part. Out of an infinity of designs a mathematician chooses one pattern for beauty’s sake and pulls it down to earth.
McConnell is the most talented majority leader in a generation. He has complete control of his caucus and understands and exploits their weaknesses, ambitions, and desires. In an impeachment trial where his members knew Trump’s guilt was absolute and unequivocal, he bribed and browbeat them into submission.
In my own situation, I cannot show anything… And I believe that everybody now understands that, president or not president, one is entitled to have a private life. But of course when one is president, this creates duties and obligations.
Bob Gates understands the difficulty of going to war. This is a man who spent almost his entire life working for the government.

With these scripts and these writers, so much of it is done for me. Because we don’t just throw words around: we make sure the audience understands.
I’ve been asked whether knowing Spanish and being Hispanic myself is a positive in getting Hispanic voters, and I don’t believe it is. I think Hispanics look for a friend; they look for someone who understands, whose willing to relate, to hear their issues and welcome them to the party and to their campaigns.
It’s a wise man who understands that every day is a new beginning, because boy, how many mistakes do you make in a day? I don’t know about you, but I make plenty. You can’t turn the clock back, so you have to look ahead.
We need a mayor who knows how to balance a budget, who understands the urgency of delivering all the services that a great city needs, who understand the need of working families.
I loved the last album, and it was one hundred percent me. But this is like me two years later, who understands a little bit more about music and understands a little bit more about making an album. I wrote a lot more.
Anything is possible. No one understands how far you can push your body to the limit, and I like to play with that.
Guardiola has a lot of knowledge about the game and understands the psychology of the players. You can see all the things he is doing well.
My mom often tells me to get married, but she gets it now that I don’t want to. Like any other mom, she is worried, but she also understands the demands of my profession. I am blessed to have a family like this.
She thoroughly understands what no other Church has ever understood, how to deal with enthusiasts.
My husband is very supportive – he wants me to work but understands I also want to be with the kids.

Any patient who has a serious illness requiring multiple doctors understands the frustration of lost medical charts, repeated procedures, or having to share the same information over and over with different doctors and nurses.
The show understands its tone and characters intimately. ‘Cobra Kai’ has smart people doing silly things – which I can’t get enough of.
The power and appeal of Documentary is the way it alters and plays with the way the viewer relates to and understands the subject.
My attitude is different. And no one understands me the way my friends do.

I’m lucky to have met Nicolas Ghesquiere, the creative director of Vuitton. He understands me and knows me, and I admire his sensibility and talent. Karl Lagerfeld is another huge designer and artist for whom I feel affection and admiration.
Salesforce’s Chatter is what convinced me that the company understood what is going on in the enterprise; this was the biggest attraction for me. I saw that Salesforce understands social.
One of the key factors of life is love, and the key factor of God is love, so having that understanding is really important in a relationship. Having someone that genuinely respects you and understands your life and is open to hearing about your life is really cool.
We have no words for speaking of wisdom to the stupid. He who understands the wise is wise already.
Love is a universal thing that everyone understands. Love, like death, is the only thing that binds humanity.
Good candidates can arrive at the binary search tree as the right path in a few minutes, and then take 10-15 minutes working through the rest of the problem and the other roadblocks I toss out. But occasionally I get a candidate who ‘intuitively understands’ trees and can visualize the problem I’m presenting.

Everybody understands that you’re supposed to say ‘our employees are our most valuable asset’ to the point where, even if it’s really true, they’re not going to really trust you until you’ve earned that – same with customers.
I’ve done two remakes, ‘Rowdy Rathore’ and ‘Son of Sardaar,’ and I see nothing wrong with it. The originals were in a language that not everyone understands, so when you’re making it in another language, you can reach a much wider audience. That’s how I look at it.
Mitt Romney understands free enterprise, he has worked in it. He has seen companies succeed and he has seen them fail, too. He knows what people think about when they invest their money.
Find a priest who understands English and doesn’t look like Rasputin.
Violet speaks Spanish and understands it. She loves Cuban food! My mom is very good at teaching her about our culture, whether it be the food or Spanish or explaining to her that she’s Cuban.
