Life is about timing.
With fashion, it’s all about timing and holding out for the right thing.
Once I understand the playbook and understand what I’m looking at, it’ll be easy as far as the timing and where the ball needs to go.

After we’d filmed one series of ‘Kiss Me Kate,’ everyone was saying: ‘The guy’s got great comic timing,’ – that was the first I’d heard of it. I’m not a comedian, I don’t want to depend on a singular box of tricks. I like story and characters, to take on world views that are not my own.
Sight gags had to be planned; they required timing and mechanics. Occasionally, spontaneity would arise in the shooting of the scenes.
Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it’s all over.
I’ve always wanted to design a Mustang. I just never really had the opportunity in my career because the timing was never right.

But if applause throws off your timing, then you’re not the kind of comedian I would like to see. All you have to do is stand there and take it.

Well, I think writing is basically about time and rhythm. Like with jazz. You have your basic melody and then you just riff off of it. And the riffs are about timing.
I’m at a point where there isn’t any wasted movement in the throwing motion. Everything is consistent and smooth. When I first got into the league, I held the ball really high. That was the standard in college, and it messed up my timing a little bit – the draw, bringing it back, then the release.
If you look at the timing of many of the Greek dramas from the theatrical point of view, it’s all off, and I think the reason for that is that music played a very important part.
I think ‘Total Divas’ has brought the women more mainstream and so many opportunities. However, I’ve always thought, if I’m supposed to be on the show, I’ll be on the show. It’s all about timing.
My comic timing is quite good.
I’ve spent years on stage adjusting the timing of a line to infinitesimal degrees.
My system works, as long as people let me do my job my way. It is not just the sequence, it is how you do it: the timing, the mirrors, the temperature, the carpet. But if people only do it 99% right, it is 100% wrong. When someone tries to mess with it, the people won’t get the yoga benefits.
Juventus offered me the opportunity to sign in 2017 and I turned it down. I just didn’t feel the timing was right.

Our bodies and our minds have their own timing that pay little attention to our cerebral desires. We can’t force or expect things to change as fast as we want, but when we put our efforts in the direction of our intention and drop everything else like snow falling, things unfold with ease.
I’ve grown as a storyteller, and my comedic timing has gotten better.
You can’t replace luck and timing. With Workday, our timing was perfect. We started in 2005 right as cloud computing was beginning to take off.

Startups often want to control the timing of their financing announcement and prefer not to reveal amounts raised for competitive reasons. If more of the Form D information was confidential rather than public, compliance rates would jump dramatically.
You know, sometimes, when they say you’re ahead of your time, it’s just a polite way of saying you have a real bad sense of timing.
On the tennis court, one needs a cool temperament, tremendous ball sense, reflexes, speed, hand-eye co-ordination, power, timing and peak physical fitness. Off the court, the player and support team need skills in planning, execution, travel, an ability to raise funds when needed, and several other talents.
When you’re tense and you’re forcing the issue, you kind of cloud your vision, so I think just being confident and super relaxed, waiting for my timing, has really helped me.
Pace, rhythm and timing. Pace, rhythm and timing is what it’s about. The content’s got to be great, but then it’s got to be delivered. It’s a tricky thing to do, and it takes a lot of work.

Everybody has a high point and a lot goes into that: timing, situation, general consciousness.
The essence of football was blocking, tackling, and execution based on timing, rhythm and deception.

I went to see ‘Star Trek Into Darkness,’ and J.J. Abrams, who’s a friend of mine, made this film, and I went to see it at the premiere. Believe it or not, I was really blown away by the comic timing of it.
I would love to do something like Austin Powers to show off my comic timing.
If you’re entering into fashion in an original way, you have to know your craft, and you have to know your history. You have to be obsessively dedicated. You have to be relentless about making it happen. It doesn’t take a bank. It takes passion, love, timing, and luck.
I have a solo deal with Columbia Records. So it’s about, do I want to release an album, when can we do it, what kind of album should it be, how should it be released and marketed and what’s the right timing? Do I have time to do it? It’s all about questions.
Timing has always been a key element in my life. I have been blessed to have been in the right place at the right time.
For me, the fall of the Wall came at the exact right time because, I mean, I was 17, basically I hadn’t missed anything, unlike the generation of my parents, who were deprived of a lot of things.
