I don’t have to do films to pay my bills, nor am I insecure to think that out of sight is out of mind.

I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun.
Every American college student goes to college with a hard drive. They take their laptop. There’s not a CD player in sight.

Yes, it was love at first sight. I feel that after all these years, I have finally found my soul mate.

A refuge is supposed to prevent what? The genes from flowing out of sight? This refuge idea won’t stop insects from moving across boundaries. That’s absurd.
The problem is that agencies sometimes lose sight of common sense as they create regulations.
I’m like a sight gag.

When you get up into the crown of a redwood tree, you lose sight of the ground entirely. You also lose sight of the sky. And you’re in a lost world. You’re in an undiscovered, unexplored ecosystem, somewhere between Heaven and Earth, filled with forms of life, not all of which have been given names by scientists yet.
Visions of glory, spare my aching sight.

It was a sight surpassing all precedent, and one we never dreamed of seeing.

I’m a singer, and I never lost sight of that.
Get out there and meet people, and that will lead to meeting other people. Look around; see if there’s anyone hiding in plain sight. There may be friends that become more than friends.
American democracy is spoiled by people buying everything in sight and then selling and buying everything in sight, including our politicians.
It is all around us, hidden in plain sight. It is walking our streets, supplying shops and supermarkets, working in fields, factories or nail bars, trapped in brothels or cowering behind the curtains in an ordinary street: slavery.
How little do we discover in comparison of those things which now are and forever will be hidden from our sight? The whole of which I am fully persuaded no one will ever be able to dive into, and to explain their causes and effects.
Most countries are static, and they need to do is keep having babies. But America’s like this big old clanking smoking machine that just lumbers across the landscape scooping up and eating everything in sight.
I can empathise with different cultural expressions and am open to things that seem strange at first sight.
There are various grades of spiritual sight. One grade enables a man to see the ordinarily invisible ether with the myriads of beings that invest that realm. Other and higher variants give him the faculty to see the desire world and even the world of thought while remaining in the physical body.

I don’t fear being outspoken. The only thing I fear is losing my sense of integrity or losing sight of the values on which I guide my life. So I don’t think it’s particularly brave or unusual for me to speak out.
This business is fickle. You have very good patches and less good patches, but you learn to ride them out. As long as you don’t take yourself too seriously, you’ll be fine. When you lose sight of that, you’re in trouble.
Clairvoyants can see flashes of colour, constantly changing, in the aura that surrounds every person: each thought, each feeling, thus translating itself in the astral world, visible to the astral sight.
Getting over someone is a grieving process. You mourn the loss of the relationship, and that’s only expedited by ‘Out of sight, out of mind.’ But when you walk outside and see them on a billboard or on TV or on the cover of a magazine, it reopens the wound. It’s a high-class problem, but it’s real.
The only thing I do is just pray for inspiration, for a way of thinking, because I don’t have any particular goal in sight.
Personally, I think the silent films were more effective for L&H, but the sound was of great value in enhancing the effects – dialog eliminated a lot of action & sight gags – I always feel that ‘action’ speaks louder than words.
If I don’t have a project going, I sit down and begin to write something – a character sketch, a monologue, a description of some sight, or even just a list of ideas.
Presumption should never make us neglect that which appears easy to us, nor despair make us lose courage at the sight of difficulties.

I’ve always been a champion of kids pursuing their dreams. But sometimes in life, extraordinary circumstances may force us to temporarily put our dreams on hold. The most important thing is to never lose sight of that dream, no matter what punches life may throw in our way.
