I think if you look at yesterday’s New York Times poll, particularly when you judge Democrats in Congress versus the Republicans in Congress, people put a little more faith, or even a little more than a little more faith in the Democrats in Congress.
To compare writing an article for ‘Sports Illustrated’ to doing a piece for ‘Real Sports’, the article, it was all me. You know, I’m out there by myself with my pad and pencil. ‘Real Sports,’ I’ve got a producer, an assistant producer, and cameramen. It’s an individual game versus a team game.
I found out in pro wrestling that it works better if you just try and be yourself versus working on something you’re not, so I’m me, and maybe it’s magnified a bit, but it’s easier just being me.
Competitiveness is really what it costs you per man-hour to get you what you want. In other words, there’s an education level that plays into the mix and so if it’s inexpensive to buy an hour of real good education in places like China versus the U.S., that factors in.
So many people prefer to live in drama because it’s comfortable. It’s like someone staying in a bad marriage or relationship – it’s actually easier to stay because they know what to expect every day, versus leaving and not knowing what to expect.
I’m thrilled to join the talented people at ‘The Daily Line’ and look forward to being a part of Versus’ incredible team.
I was in a modeling contest when I was 16. People don’t think it’s different, modeling versus beauty pageants, but it is. As a model, you’re still an individual. When you are crowned a Miss, you are representative of a lot.
Main Street versus Wall Street was the 2008 economic mantra of Democrat Barack Obama.
What we have ignored is what citizens can do and the importance of real involvement of the people versus just having somebody in Washington make a rule.
The conversation of how you do a play is my favorite conversation in the whole wide world: what a play is, why it’s different than anything else, the math of the way that human behavior has to be calibrated theatrically versus anything else.
Actors who perhaps are super-confident and have absolute belief in themselves I always admire, because I can’t really be like that. Because you never know what’s right: what you feel inside versus what is portrayed.
There’s a huge shift in the way we connect with people as humans in the technology age versus right before that, when we still had a little bit of mystery.
The talent that has to be learned is finding out what someone’s passion is and setting them up to realize that. You don’t get the best work from people if you’re guiding them versus them guiding themselves.
Coldplay’s ‘Hymn for the Weekend’ video featuring Beyonce is already caught in a heated conversation about cultural appreciation of Indian religion and culture versus cultural appropriation of that culture for the western gaze.
When it comes to the producers’ song choices versus the judges’ song choices, the producers just suggest stuff.
I was able to play alongside, in my opinion, the best hitter with Miguel Cabrera and kind of watch the way he goes about it and the way he looks at situations, when to try to drive a ball versus when to shoot a ball.
What we have ignored is what citizens can do and the importance of real involvement of the people involved – versus just having somebody in Washington make a rule.
You know, sexism in the punk scene – or just in rock and roll in general – is so easily demonstrated by the amount of women or queer people that you see on stage versus the amount of cis males that you see on stage.
By the year 2040, the world’s population is likely to increase by about 2 billion people, with also projected economic output will be up about 130 percent versus the year 2010.
Menswear remains steady. It’s a difference of a pleat versus flat-front pant or two buttons versus three in the jacket.
I mean we just simply can’t stand for the systemic racism, social injustice and police brutality against the black community anymore. And it’s really about standing up for what’s right versus what’s wrong.
Really, when you look at it, you’re not battling the chemo, you’re battling yourself the whole time. It was me versus me. There were many times where I didn’t know if I would wake up tomorrow. I would just be up, scared to go to sleep.
The stories that I want to tell, especially as a director, don’t necessarily have a perfect ending because, the older you get, the more you appreciate a good day versus a happy ending. You understand that life continues on the next day; the reality of things is what happens tomorrow.
I think people are smart enough to sort it out. They know when they’re watching one of these food fight shows where journalists sit around and yell and scream at each other, versus serious issue reporting.
I’d rather do ‘She’s So Lovely’ that John Cassavetes wrote versus doing ‘Batman.’
You’d rather have a surplus versus a shortage in your position.
Everyone wants to focus on what Ben Simmons can’t do, which is shoot and try to rush him into being a range shooter. I think Simmons in Philadelphia has done a good job in focusing what he does great versus what he doesn’t do as well.
I just tend toward more lush, full sounds in my productions. I don’t have any preference when it comes to analogue versus digital; I use what’s best for the application. Analogue synthesis is nice, but it’s just one tool among many, and it has its place.
If the battle for civilization comes down to the wimps versus the barbarians, the barbarians are going to win.
I think audiences are really savvy and know when we’re doing stuff to just shock them versus do stuff that really drives the story.
These newspaper reporters… ever since Sullivan versus New York Times… have got a license to lie.
Fleetwood Mac has been pretty truthful. Open about what we do. We’ve always done it from the inside out. Versus being pressured from the outside and changing the inside. And that’s our story.
I never think about rhythm versus melody; I’ve always just played to what’s in my head.
We’ve been out of the country one time, in sophomore year, first game of the season versus Penn State, but it was in Ireland actually.
When you’re flying off soft keys on a touch screen it’s a totally different feel, and a lot of muscle memory is lost. There is that delay when you look at the screen and input a command before it’s executed, versus something instantaneous when you move the stick.
Digital platforms are worthless without content. They’re shiny sacks with bells and whistles, but without content, they’re empty sacks. It is not about pixels versus print. It is not about how you’re reading. It is about what you’re reading.
Unions inherently create an ‘us versus them’ dynamic that makes winning against a company’s management the top goal, not serving customers, innovating, or in the case of education, teaching kids.
It’s going very different for citizens of Chicago to know that they have an advocate in the mayor’s office – getting rid of the ‘us versus them,’ the lack of investment in our neighborhoods, the feeling that the only thing that matters is if you’re a campaign donor.
I think the difference between America and Australia is very simple. It’s 20 million people versus 350 million.
I was so aware of the stage clothes versus the everyday-life clothes, and the extremeness of the stage clothes that my parents had designed. Even coming across my dad’s old Beatles suits from Savile Row and the history attached to them – the masculinity and simplicity compared to the ’70s glitz and glamour of Wings.
How does the past ambush us? How can we be accurate about what happened, how can we be true to it? And can war be declared over? And can we ever evolve from the notion of war, of nations, of us versus them?
I think a lot about intergenerational justice. Short-term versus long-term helps to explain a lot of the policy disagreements that happen between the parties, and I would argue that in most ways, we are the party with more long-term thinking.
I like stories of the classic hero, of good versus evil, the ones in which the good guys wear white and the bad guys wear black… and I love a good sword fight.
I’m just excited that I get to put out the music I love versus music just for the sake of it.
I think, for a while, there was a kind of debate about whether you could bring back Negro and reclaim it, and then it was black versus African American; now I have noticed in conversation that black people will use all three terms depending on context. I don’t advocate one term.
I’ve always been fascinated by this idea of who we are versus who we want to be.
This is what America is about when it comes to understanding that it is equal opportunity versus equal achievement. Each and every one of us has the opportunity for greatness in this country.
Sometimes it looks like the board and the chairman are the worst enemy of the manager and the coaching staff, the football versus the financial side.
Instead of speaking of men versus women, we should speak about artists rising at a worldwide level.
I don’t hold any candle for drama versus comedy.
I think that Karate Hottie can get me the title shot… That’s who I’ve been waiting for, karate versus karate, and I think that’s a big enough fight to propel me into the No. 1 contender spot.
