A lot of the math that I do, it’s not sort of premeditated. I talk online or with a colleague, and I get interested, and I just follow where it leads.
My business partner Warren Adams and I formed our company WalkRunFly as part of what felt like a logical progression: if you want to execute things to your satisfaction, then you want to have as much control as you can. That leads to helping create work for others, not just yourself.
Be comfortable. I think if you’re comfortable, you exude confidence, and that leads to good style.
I think we’ve been programmed from birth to be a certain way – to be demure, to be polite, and to be nice and to not be boastful or braggadocios in all of these things – and it leads to this kind of tragedy. Women spend so much time hating what they look like.
First developed as a weapon by the U.S. Army, VX is an oily, odorless and tasteless liquid that kills on contact with the skin or when inhaled in aerosol form. Like other nerve agents, it is treatable in the first minutes after exposure but otherwise leads swiftly to fatal convulsions and respiratory failure.
An eye for an eye only leads to more blindness.
Don’t worry about breaks every 20 minutes ruining your focus on a task. Contrary to what I might have guessed, taking regular breaks from mental tasks actually improves your creativity and productivity. Skipping breaks, on the other hand, leads to stress and fatigue.
Being a depressive should not imply danger any more than being a man or even a human should. Mental illness isn’t a them/us issue; we are all on the scale somewhere. So we must be very careful to resist ignorance and combat the stigma that leads to dangerous silence.
When I dance, I love the romance and sexiness of it, and love having it be clear to both dancers that the man leads! But the man has to know what he’s doing!
Doing leads more surely to talking than talking to doing.
The common liberal orthodoxy that living close to the land leads to eco-awareness is historically naive, considering that Mesopotamia, northern Africa, and the Mayan civilization were ruined by people who had lived there quite a long while.
Young and wiry pitchers allow for the opportunity to add muscle, which often leads to improved velocity.
Balance is good, because one extreme or the other leads to misery, and I’ve spent a lot of my life at one of those extremes.
My passion is music, you know, and music influences culture, influences lifestyle, which leads me to ‘Roc-A-Wear’. I was forced to be an entrepreneur, so that led me to be CEO of ‘Roc-A-Fella’ records, which lead to Def Jam.
Fulfilling your mission is one thing; vision is another, and having a commitment to something leads you to do better work.
We were under scrutiny when Stephen became rich and famous. The media were in the house, and camera leads were absolutely everywhere – it was just nightmarish.
Breaking stereotypes and my own barriers is great fun, because that’s what leads to growth.
I definitely identify with female leads more; I identify with real female leads, people who are flawed and have issues and make mistakes, so that the characters represent what I’m about.
My Pirelli calendar is hanging on the wall of my friend’s frat house, and he doesn’t know anything about fashion. That balance is what leads to big campaigns outside of fashion. But I never want to choose one or the other. Both commercial and high fashion are what make my job so interesting.
I am so busy doing nothing… that the idea of doing anything – which as you know, always leads to something – cuts into the nothing and then forces me to have to drop everything.
When you lose a loved one, you come to these crossroads. You can take the path that leads you down the aisle of sadness, or you can say, ‘I’m never going to let this person’s memory die. I’m going to make sure everything they worked for continues.’
People always fear change. People feared electricity when it was invented, didn’t they? People feared coal, they feared gas-powered engines… There will always be ignorance, and ignorance leads to fear. But with time, people will come to accept their silicon masters.
No matter what your background or where you are from, the one thing we can all respect is when great athletes and great passion leads to great achievements.
I have a vast ‘bone pile’ of stillborn or abandoned poems along with jottings and wisps from the great beyond that I tend to scan. Sometimes that leads somewhere, and sometimes the Muse is just on sabbatical.
Communication leads to community, that is, to understanding, intimacy and mutual valuing.
There is a wall that’s built up that leads us to believe we can’t move at work, but that’s not the case. We need to find those pockets of time where we can take care of ourselves.
You know being an actor you have to deal with a lot of criticism which is not easy, and that leads to stress. So, you have to train your mind to deal with it.
Strong female leads make more of an impact in the U.K. than in Denmark.
I used my mother’s radio as a PA system. I’d take the telephone, the speaking part, and take those two leads off and lead them into the radio and the sound would come out of the speaker.
Ambition leads me not only farther than any other man has been before me, but as far as I think it possible for man to go.
An adaptation leads the cinema-goer to the original to find out what they’re missing and if they already know the book, it can still illuminate a theme, a character, an idea.
I think if we don’t understand history, if we don’t keep referring back to it, we become complacent. And complacency, as we all know, it leads to repeating history.
Who ever would have thought that I’d be running a marathon? Certainly not me, but it’s amazing where life leads you if you’re willing to live passionately!
I think there is so many elements of the culture of basketball that Jordan leads in and has been a leader over the years – from Michael’s on court legacy to his work ethic, competitiveness, passion, and leadership.
Poverty leads to protests.
I have often found that no matter where I meet people in the world, there is a path that leads back to Queen’s.

In undergraduate school, I chose a career path that always leads to certain unemployment: I majored in politics and public affairs with a double-minor in philosophy and history.
Past records of inter-Korean relations show that confrontation between fellow countrymen leads to nothing but war.
You can’t be around Oprah and not have her influence you, and I don’t mean that because she’s doling out the free advice. I mean it because she is someone that leads with truth and follows her heart. She’s a force.
Over time, I learned that how a quarterback moves the chains and leads his team to touchdowns is about as important as whether he actually does it or not.
It is only a step from boredom to disillusionment, which leads naturally to self-pity, which in turn ends in chaos.
I never work out my leads. Everything I do is usually totally spontaneous. If someone says, ‘That was good; play that again,’ I’m not able to do it.
Fate leads him who follows it, and drags him who resist.
There’s a misconception that survival of the fittest means survival of the most aggressive. The adjective ‘Darwinian’ used to refer to ruthless competition; you used to read that in business journals. But that’s not what Darwinian means to a biologist; it’s whatever leads to reproductive success.
I have no evidence that libertarianism leads to a better life. I just think it is morally right.
I like movies because I’ve been getting leads, and TV is more about ensemble casts.
You can be playing a line some way and the director wants you to change that, or you can disagree. But I always think that the creative conversation between director and actor is what leads to good work.
Conformity is painful. You know, it’s too tight. Conformity leads to rebellion. So a desire for happiness is in direct conflict with a desire for freedom.
It’s unnatural to believe death usually has a beauty and a concordance and is usually a coming together of your life’s work. It leads to frustration for the patient. And it leaves grieving families convinced they did something wrong.
Is instinct in the head or in the heart? Off the field, I follow my good instincts which steer me in the right direction. Sometimes on the field my head leads me astray. That’s what I believe.
When I was starting out, I didn’t know what the hell I was doing and my person who was helping me out, I didn’t even have an agent, got me five or six big auditions for leads in movies in 1986 that I had no business auditioning for. I think I ran out of three of them before I’d even finished.
Employees who believe that management is concerned about them as a whole person – not just an employee – are more productive, more satisfied, more fulfilled. Satisfied employees mean satisfied customers, which leads to profitability.
The authority of a life for Christ always has greater influence than the authority of talking. A young person can possess all of the benefits of authority – influence, respect, and strength – just by following Jesus wherever he leads.
Social media has shaken up the world of sales, with Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter offering new ways to hound leads and unprecedented insights into clients.
