Of course, when you climb, you have to carry your gear and so having a really light-but-strong backpack from Osprey has always been helpful for me.
Unlike the stage, I never found it helpful to be good in a bad movie.
When I was training in medicine for example, there was a culture in medicine that strong people didn’t need sleep, that the less you slept, the more you just powered through a tough call not on no sleep, the stronger you were. That is not helpful to have a culture that supports healthy practices like that.
Computers are extremely helpful and amazing for a multitude of scientific areas, but for me, when it comes to creation, they are insufficient and slow. Therefore, all of my efforts are to stay away from that beast.
People who are good at maintaining a deep oil well will also be very helpful in converting it to a geothermal green energy source. People who have been laying pipe, it’s the same skill as putting up a wind turbine.
In the past, I was sometimes put in this women’s lit category, and I was never really sure that was the appropriate place for me – although I certainly recognize it can be helpful and correct for other people.
We played in a number of these neutral site games, I would call them, whether it’s a playoff game, a bowl game, or one of these kickoff classic type things, which I think is helpful to, you know, our players in terms of playing some place that’s not really a home game for them.
A lot of the time writers are just sponges… for what’s around them, and so books are helpful for focusing your mind and literally putting it into words.
I was a little punk rocker and was pregnant with Sarah when I went to university. I had her in the Christmas holidays of the first term. It was 1979, and UCL was very proud of its reputation as a liberal university, so they were very helpful.
Any time you stop looking at evil as a black and white thing, it’s helpful. So the fact that there won’t be any obligatory Islamic terrorist stereotypes in movies any more, that’d be helpful.
Every woman who has left and gone into private practice has done fabulously. So the question is why aren’t more women drawn to this field? It’s helpful to enjoy the art of advocacy – verbal combat or verbal jousting. I find it telling that so many woman might be horrified, and you know, wouldn’t want to do it.
As a writer, I always think about who my prototype actors are, in my brain. It’s helpful, as a writer, to think about that.
During our stay in London for the first time I was able to establish personal contact with some of the organic chemists, whose work I knew and admired from the literature. I found them most gracious and helpful.
Deep breaths are very helpful at shallow parties.
Honestly, direct monetary comparisons aren’t helpful. If you’re going to look at remuneration, you have to be realistic about what revenue we’re bringing in for the organisation and the sport. And as it currently stands, women’s cricket is still a cost to the business.
It is going to sound cliched, but my husband has been incredibly helpful.
It was helpful to have the American troops there in great strength. They knew there’d be consequences if they didn’t move back. Now, there has been some removal of the foreign forces.
It would be helpful if someone would lay out exactly the economic mechanism that gets us from yet lower interest rates to actual economic activity.
Doubt in my tradition is something that is very helpful. Because of doubt, you can thirst more and you will get a higher kind of proof.
Pinterest has been helpful to my business. Making inspiration boards is really key to developing products. When I was getting married, I literally cut out tear sheets and put my own boards together. Had I known about Pinterest, I would have been able to do it so much more easily.
Aaron would be the most invested in wanting to get me better. It’s not that other people can’t mentor me, but to have an older brother in a spot like that, he’d always have been helpful to me.
I really do think artists are the most important people on the planet, and if what I do is a utility and helps them, then that makes me happy. I want to be helpful.
People often pulled into Scientology want to address personal problems in their life, and Scientology says we have technology that addresses these kinds of problems. Just focusing on the problems and trying to remedy them can be helpful.
Laughter is healing and helpful and fun, and I see my role as an entertainer, and I want readers to leave my books smiling.
Christlike communications are expressed in tones of love rather than loudness. They are intended to be helpful rather than hurtful. They tend to bind us together rather than to drive us apart. They tend to build rather than to belittle.
Throughout my life, the scriptures have been a way for God to reveal things to me that are personal and helpful. When I was a little boy, I was given a small Bible. If I remember correctly, it was only the New Testament.
I was always observing my siblings and hearing stories about their lives that turned out to be helpful as an actress.
I think growing up in a big family taught me a lot of problem solving and how to share and compromise, and that’s been helpful in my marriage.
One who is kind is sympathetic and gentle with others. He is considerate of others’ feelings and courteous in his behavior. He has a helpful nature. Kindness pardons others’ weaknesses and faults. Kindness is extended to all – to the aged and the young, to animals, to those low of station as well as the high.
My mother-in-law Vickie is an amazing person and has been nothing but helpful and supportive. She helps with the little things, dealing with being on the road and being away from home and how to keep up communication and little things like where the best hotels are, how to find a gym, little things on the road.
Music is very helpful, not just for the actors, but the whole crew and myself. It gives you the tone of the scene. Everyone is focused on the tone of the scene when we are shooting, and we are having an emotional reaction to the music immediately.
I think me having kids is helpful. It opens up a new little area of your heart.
My colleagues went on the Internet, went on Facebook, and they found it helpful, and they persuaded me that I should try, so I did. It’s quite fun provided you keep it in balance and… from time to time slip in a serious message.
I think a Moon base is not necessary to get to Mars, but I think it will be helpful. It would give you a chance to develop and mature some systems; long duration, deep space stuff; and you’re close enough to get some help, via radio from Earth.
My law degree has always been incredibly helpful.
At the end of the day, I think having some life experience is helpful to play any kind of music.
My dad said, ‘The thing that I was told that was really helpful was that I mustn’t be afraid of the things I was afraid of when I was five years old’. The shock of his childhood had put him in this defensive crouch against the world, and he needed to know that he had a nice wife and kids and it wasn’t the same any more.
I thought the Billie Holiday comparison was beautiful. I think, Wow, what a wonderful, creative, helpful spirit. She’s someone who wanted to help others by sharing her emotion. That’s what I do, too, so I think that’s a great comparison.
I type everything on my computer. I carry a writer’s notebook everywhere, in case I am struck by an idea. I forget things unless I write them down. I’m planning to learn how to dictate into my cellphone; I think that will be very helpful, too.
One of the things I wanted to do was direct. There’ve been a couple of times that a director will walk up and say something to me, and all it does is make me mad. Inside I’ll go, ‘Well, that wasn’t helpful at all.’
Look, a lot of directors were actors, even if they were unsuccessful actors which I think is helpful. I think it’s a really helpful thing for a director to have experienced that. It helps you know how to talk to actors and how to get what you need from them.
The Clippers guys were great. They welcomed me and were really helpful. As a first experience of the NBA, I couldn’t have asked for better.
One of the great books I read was by Sanford Meissner on acting. I found that really helpful for me as an actress.
My mother came from a very affluent background, very Westernized, while my father was more Eastern. So I’ve had a very good blend of the East and the West. I guess this has been extremely helpful in making my career and the way I function.
Of course, China is a key to the North Korea if we’re going to solve that riddle, but they could also be helpful on Iraq, which is why it’s important that we maintain a constructive dialogue with China.
I feel like one of the things that I watched that I felt was really helpful in some way but, more than anything, is worth mentioning was this film ‘Boogie Man.’ It’s a documentary about Lee Atwater.
I just think that it’s very helpful to have a map of your psyche, because when you have a map, you know where to go.
We were very fortunate to be in YouTube in the very beginning. There wasn’t a lot of content on there, so we were pretty easy to find on YouTube. That was really helpful in growing our channel.
No one can pass through life, any more than he can pass through a bit of country, without leaving tracks behind, and those tracks may often be helpful to those coming after him in finding their way.
