Australia – not western in geography, of course, but in every other respect for sure (it certainly doesn’t want to be regarded as Asian, God forbid) – loves nothing more than to throw its weight around in South-East Asia by playing peacekeeper, carrying out its role as the United States’ regional policeman.

I still do believe in carrying yourself a certain way,

I still do believe in carrying yourself a certain way, and I do my best to be somewhat of a role model. I’m not a perfect person. I’m a human being.

David Crosby
I never fight with a man who’s carrying power tools.

I have ideas every day, and if I’m not carrying a pad of paper, I’m typing it into the notes thing on my iPhone, and it’s just ridiculous – idle hands are the devil’s plaything, and I can’t be the devil’s plaything. I got to be the devil; I got to be the guy making it all happen.

Ashton Kutcher
Having seen many of my friends go through the trial of

Konnie Huq
If you want me to perform in Silver Lake – where it looks like ‘Vice’ magazine threw up everywhere, where all the men are wearing V-necks to their belly buttons, salmon pants, and carrying a screenplay – I’ll do it, because they might appreciate a Banksy joke I can’t do anywhere else.

Craig Venter
Drew’s a funny guy. Because anything he gets into, he gets in 100%. Even when we were doing ‘The Drew Carey Show,’ he got into bowling, and suddenly he’s phoning up pros for tips and carrying around 3 balls. It’s just how he does it.
Ryan Stiles
I love working for myself. I’ve grown to dislike the Hollywood machine.

Sara Bareilles

Jemima Kirke
I think the more experience I have working on films, the more I can shed that character rather than carrying around that heavy weight.

C. S. Lewis
I have nothing but respect for John Cena and his work rate. He’s one of the hardest-working wrestlers there ever was. He’s been a great champion, an inspiring role model. It’s not easy being John Cena and carrying all the weight of the company on your back all the time.
Bret Hart
The quickest time to rehydrate is right after you're do

The quickest time to rehydrate is right after you’re done training, so I’m always carrying these gallons of water to drink, drink, drink so my body can recover faster.

You will not find me repeating a character or carrying similar mannerism in different films.
Amyra Dastur
Eleven days before 9/11, I was on a plane with the 9/11 hijackers who were carrying out a dry run.

George William Norris
I am in favor of carrying out the Declaration of Independence to women as well as men. Women having to suffer the burdens of society and government should have their equal rights in it. They do not receive their rights in full proportion.

This Oscar Pistorius business is interesting. There is this cult of carrying lots of guns and being ready to shoot somebody. There were people I knew had guns and carried them openly around Johannesburg. It is frowned on now to carry a gun, but Pistorius and co. got away with it.
Justin Cartwright
A good boxing competition gives one the sight of fine men in their prime, trained to the ounce, showing the highest skill, pluck and endurance in carrying out their attack and defence under strict rules of fair play and good temper.
Robert Baden-Powell
I don’t have a plan for a story when I sit down to write. I would get quite bored carrying it out.
Michael Ondaatje
Those who govern, having much business on their hands, do not generally like to take the trouble of considering and carrying into execution new projects. The best public measures are therefore seldom adopted from previous wisdom, but forced by the occasion.
Benjamin Franklin
I now realise how liberating all-inclusive resorts are. No carrying huge handbags anywhere. No having to worry about purses being pinched. No totting up the price in your head and fretting that you’ve spent too much.
Jane Green
I do want to be a representative of the African community, and I want to hold myself and dress myself in a way that reflects that. I want black kids to see me and think, ‘Okay, he’s carrying himself as a black man, and that’s how a black man should carry himself.’
Colin Kaepernick
Strauss Group continues to strengthen its future growth engines, improve the company’s competitive position, and increase market share, while continuing streamlining processes, improvements, and carrying out organizational adjustments in the company.
Ofra Strauss
America provided things that form the foundation of who we used to be: the prospect and potential of hope, mercy, and freedom for strangers who came carrying not much more than a determination to survive in a big country with a bigger heart.
Mike Barnicle
Whether it is kids carrying knives because they are in gangs or kids carrying knives because they are afraid of gangs, it is the gang culture that underpins the problem.
Chris Grayling
Changing the DNA of a large, multilateral organization such as the United Nations to deal effectively with modern threats is not easy. Indeed, when the United Nations was created in the wake of World War II, threats came almost exclusively from one state carrying out acts of aggression against another.
Samantha Power
Tennis is pretty unforgiving if you are carrying weight. You are expected to wear short skirts, and you are compared to all these 16 and 17-year-olds.
Monica Seles
Lifestyle changes may help reduce risk, but no study has shown that lifestyle changes alone can eliminate the risk of breast cancer, especially in those carrying the BRCA mutation.
Dean Ornish
There’s something very interesting about world leaders promising hope and then carrying through on that.
Chris Chibnall
I’ve always hated the idea of carrying grudges and resentments around like a load of mouldy suitcases.
Victoria Coren Mitchell
We fully recognized that our customers have a variety of devices. They’re carrying all sorts of things. And we want to bring our world-class apps to those devices.
Peggy Johnson
Scott Ritter is a very well-known archetype of a certai

Scott Ritter is a very well-known archetype of a certain U.S. military officer. Very hard talking, very ambitious, zealous, and completely consumed with carrying out his mission. He’s a guy who, throughout his career, I would say, did not break rules, but he worked around road blocks.
Barton Gellman
They say pregnancies can differ depending on whether you’re carrying a girl or boy, so for me, I think having a little boy is definitely easier on my body – or I’m just better prepared!
Jessie James Decker
Seeing the world around you clearly is a critical step in developing an idea for a business, carrying out that idea, and then thriving with an ongoing concern. Through choice, predilection, lack of education, impatience, or other causes, the entrepreneur lives, in a way, outside the mainstream.
Paul Hawken
I believe in carrying all the looks that are suggested to me in my very own way.
Sonu Kakkar
Every time I’d get a job, they’d say: ‘You’ll be good at loading trucks.’ I couldn’t explain that there was more to me than carrying things.
Jason Isbell
Anyone who has lost a child will tell you that they don’t recover their sense of endless possibility. Some people hide that well. But after a certain age, almost everyone is carrying something like that around, I suppose.
Edward Hirsch
I use an e-reader when I’m traveling: I love carrying dozens of books on a small lightweight device, and I’m still amazed every time I purchase and immediately start reading a new title without leaving my hotel room – in another country!
Chris Pavone
Carrying the ball is one of the strongest points in my game and I like to be a danger on the pitch.
Shaun Wright-Phillips
The really tough thing would have been to decide to take Woodward and Bernstein off the story. They were carrying the coal for us – in that their stories were right.
Ben Bradlee
How can I impress strangers with the gem-like flame of my literary passion if it’s a digital slate I’m carrying around, trying not to get it all thumbprinty?
James Wolcott
Make no mistake – LeBron James was carrying the Cavs, but Dellavedova was the cinematic element: hustle personified.
Rowan Ricardo Phillips
When you have to do as much as women do, the Internet allows you to – from home – figure out a way to extend your reach and power in the world. It allows you to do what job you’ve done traditionally, and create aspirations by carrying on a job and using the Internet to amplify everything you’re doing.
Indra Nooyi
Never once has Republican world said hey, maybe we should look into how police officers are carrying out their solemn public responsibility to serve and protect. No – no right wing website in America is investigating or will ever investigate how well police officers do their jobs.
Lawrence O’Donnell
I’d begun to collect things that were lying in piles on the floor of my studio. I had run out of space, and I started to build shelves. I turned around one day and realized that that was the vehicle for carrying so many of the things that I was looking at and talking about, so they went from the walls to the works.
Rashid Johnson
Shoes are important, of course. I love my Lanvin sneakers – they go with a lot of things. And then I think a nice bag is great, so you carry your computer or whatever else in style. I’ve been carrying a Tom Ford backpack lately.
John Legend
Patenting tends to get people’s juices flowing when you put the word ‘gene’ and the word ‘patent’ in the same sentence. And understandably so. This is stuff we’re carrying around – all of us – inside all of our cells. Should somebody be able to lay claim to it?
Francis Collins
The first book I ever bought for myself was ‘One Fish Two Fish’ by Dr. Seuss. My favourite page shows two children carrying an enormous glass jar up some stairs in the dark. In the jar is a tusked beflippered creature floating in brine.
Mini Grey
We would be driving down the street in a place like Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of Congo, and started to see, my gosh, the only people that have shoes are men. Why does that woman have a baby in her belly and one on her back, and she’s carrying a huge load of bananas? You start to ask these questions.
Melinda Gates
I used to be the third person in the secret jets we had – they were secret at the time – a jet bomber that flew at immense heights carrying atomic bombs.
Melvin Van Peebles
When making the first album, I think I wrote a song about every six months. The first album was so much about the vocals carrying it.
Florence Welch
Indeed, we’re strongest when the face of America isn’t only a soldier carrying a gun but also a diplomat negotiating peace, a Peace Corps volunteer bringing clean water to a village, or a relief worker stepping off a cargo plane as floodwaters rise.
Colin Powell
In my opinion, Slash is probably one of the last of the iconic guitar players carrying the torch of what it’s really all about.
Joey Kramer
I’d be happy if I was part of a Liverpool side that kept winning titles, cups, and made history. I just want to win and carrying on winning for Liverpool.
Philippe Coutinho
I have often heard that the novel is dead. But I see novels produced, I don’t know how many a week, in France. I have the impression it’s carrying along quite well.
Nathalie Sarraute
According to ‘Star Trek’ mythos, Starfleet Command – operational headquarters for a flotilla of craft that keep the cosmic peace – is located in San Francisco’s Presidio, in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge (still carrying traffic, even in the 23rd century).
Seth Shostak
For me, I’ve always been Justin Trudeau, son of. All my life I’ve had to know I was carrying a name, and people were paying more attention to what I had to say, and I had to make a choice early on.
Justin Trudeau
I think, as a writer, sometimes you do worry, ‘Am I just writing, or am I putting the burden of African-Americans on my shoulder and carrying it?’ But if we just write the stories that we’re supposed to write, that’s when we have the biggest impact.
Angie Thomas
I spend my weekends with my Android phone in an elastic band that has tied to my Android phone my driver’s license and my credit card. That’s how I live. I’m not carrying a wallet anymore. Like, a wallet is a medieval item, right?
Patrick Pichette
I gained 50 pounds when I was carrying my baby.
Sherilyn Fenn
Carrying envy makes life more difficult.
Kym Whitley
It is not in my mind’s eye that all officers will be carrying a Taser but we should have people able to deploy it.
Cressida Dick
Character, in great and little things, means carrying t

Character, in great and little things, means carrying through what you feel able to do.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I just have that sort of face and when I got to Hollywood in the late ’70s they took one look at me and said, ‘Get him a gun. You definitely should be carrying a gun,’ and so a lot of it is just the way I look. I look like I’m angry and dangerous, and in fact, I’m loveable and kind.
M. C. Gainey
I’ve experienced tournament wins with younger age groups and I know how good it feels – it’s about carrying on.
Jack Butland
When I was fifteen, I dreamed of living in the big city, as many a young person does if he is artistic and sensitive. By ‘artistic and sensitive’ I mean short, skinny, unkissed, bad at sports, and carrying a C average in high school.
P. J. O’Rourke
I’m carrying the sport of women’s boxing and I am the best woman fighter and that’s my role.
Claressa Shields
If a lending institution is faced with bids for a package of toxic assets that are less than the carrying value of those assets, the sale of those assets would trigger a further loss and reduce the underlying capital of the institution.
Roger Altman
I’m not someone else’s mouthpiece. I’m not carrying water for anyone – whether that’s the GOP, Fox News, or Christianity. I’m not doing anyone else’s dirty work.
S.E. Cupp
I knew many Marines had done brave deeds that no one saw and for which they got no medals at all. I was having a very hard time carrying those medals and didn’t have the insight or maturity to know what to do with my combination of guilt and pride.
Karl Marlantes
Fortune pays you sometimes for the intensity of her favors by the shortness of their duration. She soon tires of carrying any one long on her shoulders.
Baltasar Gracian
I think it’s very important to feed the body what it craves and not be in your head about it, panicking, carrying around some calorie-counting wheel in your bag or something equally absurd. I’m really not a fan of that at all.
Tracy Anderson
Believe me, I’ve done my time travelling the world in cramped conditions and carrying my own luggage. Now my leisure is summers in the south of France or the Hamptons, walking in Connemara, and year-round shopping in Manhattan and Paris.
Anne Robinson
The technology used to detect if vehicles are carrying radioactive material is so sensitive it can tell if a person recently received radiation as part of a medical procedure.
Timothy Murphy
In some ways, I’m in danger of doing too many things to be able to appreciate and enjoy them. I look forward to thinking back to carrying the Olympic torch, or going to the Royal Wedding, when I’m in the middle of the ocean on my own far from anywhere – that’s when I’ll relive those moments.
Ben Fogle
We then came to the Soviet Union. One day we were walking and carrying our banner and distributing a few leaflets in Russian to people, and we met two women on the road.
Satish Kumar
It’s so exciting to headline a film. It’s not every day you see a Latina carrying a full-length feature.
Aimee Garcia
Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.
Stephen Covey
Corruption has reached an unacceptable level. It devours resources that could be devoted to the citizens. It impedes the proper carrying out of market rules and penalizes the honest and capable.
Sergio Mattarella
My Dad was such an incredible person, and you have the option of just curling up in a dark corner and letting it all go or you have the option of standing strong, sticking together and carrying on what he lived and died for. And I think that’s what’s so important – to be able to carry on where he left off.
Bindi Irwin
I gave myself the small task of writing honestly about the kind of life I knew. I believe there is some value in carrying out that task, however limited.
Sally Rooney
We are, after all, a nation of laws. And we live in a culture where carrying a form of identification is as normal as keeping your car keys in your pocket. When any of us walk into a grocery store and cashes a check, no one skips a beat when asked to present our driver’s license.
Mike Gallagher
I’ve been given the opportunity to carry forward the legacy with which people associate me; I can’t escape it even if I don’t like it. I take pride in carrying forward what’s been given to me.
N. T. Rama Rao, Jr.
When somebody asks me who I’m wearing, I always see myself with a BabyBjoern, carrying a little tiny Karl Lagerfeld, like, ‘I’m wearing Chanel.’
Claire Danes
To me, I always felt like I was carrying a torch for women of any size to be themselves – it doesn’t matter whether you’re a size 2 or a 22, just be who you are.
Queen Latifah
Politicians never fade away; they just keep carrying on, you know, their class.
Paul Keating
People are carrying around smartphones. They have a video capture device in their pockets twenty-four/seven.
Michael Seibel
Carrying a grudge is a heavy burden. As you forgive, you will feel the joy of being forgiven.
Henry B. Eyring
For many terrorists, carrying out an attack allowed them to become the heroes of their own story.
Peter Bergen
I won’t be on the stage because my performing days are over. Basically I’m too old. I’m incapable of doing the job, I’m carrying too many injuries.
Bez
Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you ready or not, to put this plan into action.
Napoleon Hill
No element gets people telling crazy stories like mercury does. People have told me tales about pharmacists waxing floors with mercury, mothers rubbing it into babies’ skin to kill germs, and 10-year-olds coating dimes in it to make them shine, then blithely carrying them around in their pockets.
Sam Kean
Dollywood is a family park, and all families are welcome. We do have a policy about profanity or controversial messages on clothing or signs. It is to protect the individual wearing or carrying them, as well as to keep down fights or problems by those opposed to it at the park.
Dolly Parton
People expect someone with the name 'Israel Horovitz' t

People expect someone with the name ‘Israel Horovitz’ to be a little old man with sideburns carrying a Torah.
Israel Horovitz
A car produces about one pound of CO2 per mile. There is no problem with collecting the CO2 in the tailpipe, but one might easily end up with a trailer hitched to the car for carrying all this CO2 back to the filling station. The gas burned from a 15-gallon tank would fill up five 60-inch-tall gas bottles.
Klaus Lackner
I wanted to take up guitar because playing piano is a little harder. Carrying a keyboard around is harder, and finding a real piano is much harder, and I wanted to play live more, so I figured a guitar would be easier to carry around.
Mitski
To be on the world stage carrying our flag and representing the U.S. Paralympic Team is a huge honor.
Mike Schultz
The one pervading evil of democracy is the tyranny of the majority, or rather of that party, not always the majority, that succeeds, by force or fraud, in carrying elections.
John Dalberg-Acton
Who said that looking good is not a task? There are so many girls with a well maintained body, but will they be able to walk the beachside in front of the camera wearing a swimsuit? Carrying your body in a certain manner to look sexy is also an art.
Taapsee Pannu
You realise the responsibility of carrying a film on your shoulders when people are investing money in you and they recognise the hard work you have to put in.
Vir Das
I’m so grateful that the Internet and the DVD came along because, otherwise, something like ‘Freaks And Geeks’ would have been dead. At the time we made the show, those avenues weren’t really available, and the idea of the show carrying on after it was canceled was something that didn’t really happen.
Linda Cardellini
I don’t write with this thing in the back of my head about carrying the weight of young black women on my shoulders.
Michaela Coel
I think most people in the developed world would admit to carrying some sort of handheld device, whether it’s a laptop or a cell phone, at all times.
Alexis Denisof
Personally, coming out was one of the most important things I’ve ever done, lifting from my shoulders the millstone of lies that I hadn’t even realized I was carrying.
Ian Mckellen
My house is full of antics, mayhem, foolishness, carrying on, cutting up, shucking and jiving, and I have that whether cameras are there or not. Our youngest just had us up with her shenanigans and hijinks all night. So, it’s all the time, even off camera.
Niecy Nash
Film is carrying a lot of ideology. It’s carrying an image. It’s forging an image not only of the rest of the world, but also of yourself, you know.
Raoul Peck
Confident people have a way of carrying themselves that makes others more attracted to them.
Sofia Vergara
