Having a child is not like taking a spouse; there is no mutual agreement entered into. It is up the parent to make the commitment.
I found university a little dispiriting. I thought I would enter the great halls of Plato, but instead I entered the halls of an intellectual sausage factory. I wanted to do something not on the main course, and chose the environment.
When I entered the industry in 1984, I was welcomed, no one pushed me away. I want the younger comedians to experience the same. They should feel wanted.
Giving should be entered into in just the same way as investing. Giving is investing.
When I arrived in the summer of 2009 to command the war in Afghanistan, I entered an effort that was failing. Many Afghans, some ISAF coalition members, and much of the American public had lost confidence in both the trajectory of the war and our ability to correct it.
It came as a surprise to find that a professional society and journal (Econometrica) were flourishing, and I entered this area of study with great enthusiasm.
It was the students who entered kindergarten in 2011 who are – and I am weighing my words carefully – the sacrificed generation. It is they who have paid a high price for the politics of yesterday – that is to say, the government of Mr. Fillon.
My parents and I entered the U.S. legally, but when it was time for our visa extension, we were turned down. Returning to China meant imprisonment for my father and persecution for my family. We were days from being forced to live here illegally when we were granted political asylum. Other families are not so lucky.
So many fighters who fight Golovkin have lost before they’ve entered the ring.
We entered into the pharmaceutical industry in 1988, and since then, we have grown significantly on the back of a growing demand in India for pharmaceutical products.
As an African-American, as a woman, I think that I’ve been sensitized to the way in which history privileges the white male and the way in which certain aspects of history, the things that we are taught in school, the things that are handed down, never, never entered the picture though they might have been very important.
I recognise that fishing is perhaps not the most high-employment industry in this country, but it’s a symbol of what we lost when we entered the E.U.: control over national resources that, if we retained them, we could have husbanded in our interest and, indeed, in the interest of others.
I found a book facing out that I’d always meant to read: William Shirer’s ‘The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.’ About a third of the way through, I suddenly, finally caught up to the fact that Shirer had been there in Berlin, from 1934 on, and was finally kicked out when the U.S. entered the war.
We used to think that aging was a lot like, as if we were cars made fresh and youthful and then we’ve entered this breakdown in diet. What we didn’t realize until recently is that we’re much more complex than a car. We fix ourselves if we’re broken.
I entered the film industry as a background dancer and then gradually rose step by step. Now I am a judge and a filmmaker, but amongst everything, my personal favourite continues to be dancing, as it is what has led me to the rest.
I actually started out as a poet in high school. I published in small literary magazines for probably about ten years. I entered the Yale Younger Poet contest every year, until I was too old to be a younger poet, and I never got more than a form rejection letter from them.
I don’t know what my mother was thinking, but she entered me in a Little Miss contest – Little Miss Orange Blossom, I think it was. And I don’t remember anything about that, except I have one flash-bulb memory of standing on the stage and thinking, ‘This is not where I should be.’
Many non-believers who have entered substance abuse programs have found themselves at odds with the religious overtones prevalent in the recovery industry.
When French troops entered Paris in August, 1944, Papa came in from Rambouillet and first liberated the Explorers’ club. But his major objective was the Ritz. He came in and assured security, making sure nobody else could get to the wine cellar.
I suppose a certain degree of adulthood has entered my life. Aiming for Broadway, I can’t think that way any more. Of course, Broadway will always be important. But it’s not the focus of everything that you do. You know, I’m very happy I was born when I was, so I got there in time. When it was time to get there.
In 1970, at the age of 14, I entered a short story contest offering a grand prize of one dollar. I won. This was my first foray into writing fiction. I loved reading and thought that it shouldn’t be so hard to write a story.
I just entered the wonderful world of 40s, so anything anti-aging, I’m jumping on.
Retirement has never entered my mind for one moment because I don’t feel the age I am – and I don’t act it, and I don’t speak like it. When God calls me, that’s when I stop. Until then, I’m going to just keep going.
Sometimes poetry is inspired by the conversation entered into by reading other poems.
I guess I’m concerned that vulgarity has now officially entered the mainstream of our culture, and I think people have to respectfully stand up and say, ‘No thanks.’
A lot of singers entered the industry with me. A lot of them struggled. Many have not been able to make it but some have sustained.
It always seemed to me ironic that the McCain campaign kept referring sneeringly to Obama’s meager resume – ‘a mere community organizer!’ – before he entered electoral politics. It was Obama’s experience as a community organizer that proved such a killer app when he applied that skill to the Internet.
When I entered the jungle for ‘I’m A Celebrity,’ my confidence was so low.
I was terribly upset not to be in ‘Dickensian,’ so I pretend to look down on it. The part I should have played, Mrs. Gamp, is done brilliantly by Pauline Collins, but I entered this world for no other reason than to play that part.
In 1978, I entered the Tokyo Institute of Technology. I would have loved to study videogame programming, but nobody was teaching it then. So I went to classes on engineering and early computer science.
PSG were interested in signing me, but we never entered negotiations.
I’d done acting at a local drama school on Saturdays. I just enjoyed it. It never entered my mind I could possibly do it for a career.
When I entered Bollywood, I didn’t have any advantage over anyone. I didn’t know how to act, I was not from the industry, I didn’t know the language, and I didn’t know how to dance. So, whatever films I was getting, I was just taking them up.
On my first day teaching my own classroom, I threw up before I entered the building.
As soon as there is language, generality has entered the scene.
I learned how to read in second grade, and I entered a summer contest at my local library in Chattanooga, Tennessee. If you read more books than anybody else, you got your Polaroid up on the bulletin board, and I did.
I entered Yale in the fall of 1951, and about November of that year, Bill Buckley published ‘God and Man at Yale.’
When I entered medical physics in 1958 there were fewer than 100 in the U.S. and I could see many opportunities to apply my knowledge of nuclear physics.
I never entered the film industry with any expectation.
Without wishing to sound arrogant, when I was younger, I used to win every single martial arts tournament I ever entered. I used to enter the under 14s and under 16s, win both gold medals in those, and then go in the men’s tournament just for experience, and end up getting a silver medal.
I felt the strongest impulse to climb when I entered my first competitions.
With Barack Obama as president and the super-happening Michelle Obama as First Lady, you would think a new tone, a new tune, a kicky new jazzitude, would have entered Washington discourse, but it remains a landlocked island unto itself, held captive by its tribal fevers.
I entered politics from a filmi background and had no idea about that world. Slowly, I realised that it did not suit me, and that’s when I decided to get out of it.
After the war, prompted by the Cardinal Archbishop of Paris, I entered Parliament so that a priest could speak out for the poor, as canon law at that time still permitted.
When I originally entered UCLA, I had planned to go for a film major, but I kept finding myself taking math classes for fun, ’cause I missed them from high school!
In the United Nations, when China entered, we voted on the same position, and since then we have maintained the same position, that position has not changed.
All the guys that entered The Groundlings, like Will Ferrell, already had incredible confidence, but I watched shut down women that didn’t even have a personality completely become different human beings because of the training.
Being published is a bit like being entered into a race you don’t even want to run, but, once running, can’t help but not want to lose.
I entered the modeling industry as a business person already. I always knew I belonged on the other side of the camera.
