Be nice to people and look after your relationships.
As you get older, you realize just figuring out how to be nice to the people in your personal sphere is almost more challenging than trying to change the bigger culture.
I don’t think there’s any independent cartoonist whose stuff I don’t like or respect in at least some way or another. We’re all marginal laborers – we’re practically medical oddities – so I don’t see why we can’t all be nice to each other.
We have to be nice to ourselves and others in order for life to run smoothly. This is just how it goes: a fun little game of the universe we like to sometimes call karma.

Always be nice to the front desk staff because they can choose to make your life a living hell, and they’ll remember you.
I don’t think I’d live in London unless you paid me. Nine figures would be nice.
Just be nice to me while I am doing the scene; that is all. I don’t want big cars, I don’t want big hotel rooms.
Everything I do is somehow rooted in humanity. It’s always about people; it’s always about ego. It’s always about desperation. It’s quite existential. You know, ‘Am I leading a good life?’ That might be because I’m an atheist, and I think this is all we’ve got, so you better be nice. And have fun.
I’ve spoken with Raheem Sterling and Jordan Henderson, and they say the Premier League’s the place to be. It’s where I want to get to, and getting there with Palace would be nice.
I enjoy photography. It’s a lot of fun. It keeps me on my P’s and Q’s and, when you think about it, most people think photography is just going to a game. But you start to think, dang, that would be a good picture. Or you’re driving along and see something and think, ‘that would be nice.’
When we talk to somebody and we want to be nice or polite or show our more beautiful side, we try to use the best words that we know. This is what poets are doing. They are cleaning the words, they are inventing the sentiments, they are giving us a way to communicate.
People will clap to be nice. They will not laugh to be nice.
What I have done is always try to be nice to work with. I make the best impression, try to do a good job… and if people hire me again, it’s for the right reasons.
It would be nice to turn off that incessant churning of consciousness.
I love what I do. And why not be nice? I mean, I’ve seen people who work and they’re apparently not enjoying it, and they’re making sure everybody knows it.

I love acting; I don’t want to give up on it at all, but it would be nice to step behind the camera once in a while as well.
I don’t think you should have to try to be nice, I think most people are nice. I think being cheerful and nice is just a politeness.
When people hear sing-songy melodies, they think the lyrics will be nice, too. I guess there’s a depressing or psychotic side to my personality that pops out in the lyrics.
If I wake up one day and people tell me I’m not sexy, I’m not going to stop making good music and having fun. That ‘sex symbol’ thing is typically part of being in the limelight. You better be very talented in your music, but it’s good to be nice to look at, I guess.
I would love to explore film seeing as I have prominently been on television. It would be nice to change it up and focus on film a little bit.
I’d always thought that if Python was going to go on at all, it’d be nice to get into storylines.
It may never happen, but I’d love to make a movie and not be rushed or concerned about shooting too much film. Probably a fantasy, but it would be nice. It would also be cool to fill a movie with all my favorite songs, but music is so damn expensive. We can’t all be Cameron Crowe.
Shooting from outside the box, it would be nice to get a few more goals from outside the box.
It would be nice to redefine ourselves – at the moment we are drowning in diversity. That’s not a bad thing, its just going to take a while before we refocus.
It would perhaps be nice to be alternately the victim and the executioner.

Milan, Inter, Roma, Juventus, Lazio – all of the big Italian clubs would be nice, but my son has a lot of work to do to show himself off and demonstrate his talent. Let’s take things slowly.
As children, we looked up to our maids and our nannies, who were playing in some ways the role of our mothers. They were paid to be nice to us, to look after us, teach us things and take time out of their day to be with us. As a child you think of these people as an extension of your mother.
There’s nothing to be said for being famous. It’s a pain. You can’t be rude to people – it’s inexcusable not to be nice. Anyway, it’s not in my nature. I was trained to be nice.
My brain puts baths in the same category as yoga: it’d be ‘nice’ to relax for an hour, but I just want a 10-minute, high-impact workout; get in, get out. Showers are my cardio.
I think that the basic philosophy was very good. It was just be nice to each other, and don’t step on other people’s toes and infringe on their freedom.
Whoever is my relative, I will not be nice to them.
There are women who can play at my standard, if not better, and they can beat men, too, so it would be nice to see them do it as well.
I think it would be nice to see more of an open culture to different music.
I don’t mind being stereotyped in some way and playing certain kinds of guys, but if I can find something to occasionally get a break from that, that would be nice. And I feel like I manage to.
Some asteroids have us in their sights. Be nice to sort of go near them and find out what they’re made of, possibly tag their ears so they’re always broadcasting to us their location. In case one of their trajectories head straight for us, we’ll know well in advance to do something about it.
I remember when I was doing my first Christmas album, I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice to find new Christmas songs?’ Then I went, ‘Are you crazy?’ When I decorate my tree I don’t want new Christmas songs, I want to hear all the familiar songs!
I do have to take care of myself, not only because I’m in the movies, just for mental health reasons. I exercise for me. You know, maybe it would be nice to not have to do that in order to feel good, but I do. I feel like I have to, to feel good. To clear my head and all of that, so.
Be kind. Be nice to yourself. You miss a shot, it’s OK.
Just be nice to everyone because that’s the right way to do it.
It would be nice to do a movie where I didn’t have to choke the girl to get her.
It would be nice if models were allowed to be a more healthy weight – for the models, and for the young women who look up to them. We were athletic and healthy, and we looked like women.
I like to be firm. But it is easier to be nice than to be nasty.
I’ve learned that if I only put my mind to one thing that I can get tunnel vision. Then I may not be as open to other opportunities because I’m so focused on one thing. I think what’s worked better for me personally is I have three goals every day: be nice, work hard, and make friends.
I would love to go do movies; I would love to kind of delve into other things. I did do acting and modeling before, when I was a kid, so it would be nice to use those things.
People will clap to be nice. They will not laugh to be nice.
Being a nice person is about courtesy: you’re friendly, polite, agreeable, and accommodating. When people believe they have to be nice in order to give, they fail to set boundaries, rarely say no, and become pushovers, letting others walk all over them.
I’m starting at USC’s film school for directing this month. I’ll try to get a semester in at a time. I’ll have to take time off for work throughout school, but it will be nice to get through a little bit.

I think no matter who you are, or what you do, just be nice.
It would be nice to be in one place for a while and have a social life again and get a job. But I’m not qualified to do anything. That’s the problem.

It’d be nice to settle down in a great home instead of just moving around and stuff like that.
Do everything according to God, and be nice, and treat other people the way you would like to be treated.
It is nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.
That’s what drove me crazy is people would say – even people who would try to be nice would be like, it’s not different than when a dad hires his son at a law firm. I said, it’s not the same thing. You can’t be given an NBA job. I got drafted.
