I could have moved to Russia, earned more money, and felt more relaxed. But I chose another option and joined Lazio.
Beauty has been democratised. No longer the preserve of movie stars and models but available to all. But while the invitation to beauty is welcomed, it has become not so much an option as an imperative.
I wrote ‘Option B’ because I want other people to know it can get better, and I want to help people make it better.
I’ve been a novelist since 1995 and have had novels in and out of option, and watching that process just made me realize that I have to live by what I teach my students, because I teach screenwriting at Spellman.
The idea behind the Anti Tour was people asking me how I would top the ‘Aphrodite’ tour… I thought the best option was to go completely the other way. I always tried to be that way – sometimes it works and sometimes you fall flat on your face.
When kids start school, families often have little choice over where they can go. Sometimes, children are forced into a failing school simply because their parents live in a certain district, and that school is the only option.
I would not outlaw or eliminate private health insurance. But if we do a good enough job, with a robust public option, there really should not be as much of a need for private insurance in the market.
A lot of people like mainstream country because they’re not given another option of country music to like that’s modern.
I’m looking into making toilet paper. It’s not an option unless you a bum and gotta use newspaper. It’s not an option. Like, it’s an option if you wanna drive a car. It’s an option if you wanna use a straw. It’s an option if you wanna wear a pair of Nikes or Reeboks.
I sat down with my agent and went through my youth-team video footage. I saw that when I started, I’d get on the ball and within two touches would turn straight away and look to attack my opponent, but when I got into the first team, I would go for the safer option.
I don’t want to get married unless they change the marriage laws. You should have to sign a marriage contract for no more than five years, with an option to opt out.
When I was a child it was very clear what I was allowed to see and what I was not allowed to see and there was no discussion or option or negotiation. Whatever my mom said, that’s what went down.
All of us take offense to anyone who reaps the rewards of living in America without taking on the responsibilities of living in America. And undocumented immigrants who desperately want to embrace those responsibilities see little option but to remain in the shadows, or risk their families being torn apart.
In the business world today, failure is apparently not an option. We need to change this attitude toward failure – and celebrate the idea that only by falling on our collective business faces do we learn enough to succeed down the road.
We tend to default to complacency. Stick to the easy option. We all do it. We’ve tried to create a business model and society around us that is as easy and boxed as possible. We love creating boundaries and borders.
I supported and voted for the public option in the version of the Affordable Care Act passed by the U.S. House. Had it been incorporated into the final version of the ACA, it would have done much to increase the competitiveness of ACA Exchange Marketplaces.
Like cricket, hockey too needs to be a lucrative career option.
As an African-American, we stand on the shoulders of people who fought despite not seeing victories in their lifetime or even in their children’s lifetime or even in their grandchildren’s lifetime. So fatalism isn’t really an option.
Giving back was an expectation, not an option.
That is why, with optimism instead of fear, all those who want to see Puerto Rico’s status resolved should seek the truth about each option, including the upside and the downside of each.
Unfortunately for me, most of the books I’d want to reprint were written for savvy publishers like Harlequin and Berkley who have held on to electronic rights. But I do have another option: Publish new e-books myself.
I have huge respect for women who go out of their homes and have the courage to make their own destiny. And let me tell you, Indian women are doing a great job. There are those who work because they have no option but to earn, and then there are those who do it because they have the right talent. I respect both.
Six years after I wrote the first draft of ‘Plan B,’ I received my first paycheck as a writer. It included both the $3,000 in deferred option money as well as half the fee for performing the initial rewrite. The amount was scale according to the Writer’s Guild guidelines, but a lot, according to me.
I’m kind of comfortable with getting older because it’s better than the other option, which is being dead. So I’ll take getting older.
Many guys seem to think that his thoughts and feelings are always right and always the best option. I think I am the same kind of guy.
When your name is Twinkle, you are a bookworm, and a fat child, then you have to be ready to be made fun of. As a child, I used my fists a lot, but then the tongue seemed like a better option. So I started using words as a sword to jab fun at myself.
I think about death a lot, like I think we all do. I don’t think of suicide as an option, but as fun. It’s an interesting idea that you can control how you go. It’s this thing that’s looming, and you can control it.
Acting is like any other art form, in that you have the option to go very big or go very small.
Reality show was an option and so we did ‘Nach Baliye.’ Looking back, the journey was very nice, with lots of ups and downs.
I don’t want everyone to like me, and I don’t choose who likes me. You have to give them the choice, give them the option.
Of course, health is the most important thing, but shutting down the entire economy for months is also not an option. Everyone should use their common sense.
I was very active in college. I wanted to play athletics, and then I looked at wrestling as being a viable option to do that.

When you are the invisible man to the head coach, the only option is to head for the exit.
The British regulatory system was revised, so that bigger profits were encouraged, which removed the option of big spending on programming. Quality just fell off a cliff, and all the old hands either left or were fired for being too expensive.
Perhaps there’s a lot of quality television that’s not right for the individual who needs questions answered in each episode, and perhaps reality television may be a better option. With the integrity of HBO and their drive to tell stories, it takes time to arrive at any sort of answers.
My parents are hard nuts. Especially my Dad. He never wanted me to struggle and he always wanted me to fight my own battles. He would never give me the easy option or the easy route.
They actually bought me for Daredevil 2, but they have to exercise the option.
I was terrified the first time that I had a big problem in my business. I was obviously terrified when they diagnosed me with cancer in 1994. I was terrified when my son used to drive too fast. But I do believe in the fact that fear is not an option, so I always try to face it and not be afraid.
Violence is my last option.
I think TV content has changed a lot and even films, especially after the web platform has come in. Now, there’s an option for everyone, you’ll find content that appeals to you. So, I really like how storytelling is changing.
As with email, the recipient of a texted question seems to have the option to ignore it, while nevertheless saying, ‘Hello, lovely day,’ and so on.
Sometimes if you don’t take the easy option, it’ll pay dividends in the long run.
A public option is essential to creating the cost-savings necessary to offset the cost of providing all Americans access to affordable health care.
In India, the key is to start at the base and start very young. We need professionally trained talent, talent that wants to make football their career, and people must see football as a strong professional career option.
I do not support a single-payer system; I do support having something there, whether it’s an option or not. And we can work with that, but we have to have something to leverage so we can get the insurance company to bring down their prices, and the only way to do that is to have an alternative there.
Of all the liberal resentments during the Obama years, one of the sharpest has been the failure to secure a public insurance option as part of the Affordable Care Act.
My view is pensioners don’t have the one option that people of working age have. They can’t really increase their income, because they are no longer able to work.
