Demonization of people on the basis of race, religion, sexual orientation, or other criteria leads to dehumanization. The notion that some are ‘other’ is a dangerous and slippery slope.
We believe in government involvement that leads to independence: good schools, quality roads and the best health care.
We try and give as much diversity to our show as possible. That’s something that’s very strong in our show: there are so many strong female leads in ‘The 100.’
One tries to be uplifting in one’s songs, but occasionally a cloud appears in the sky and one’s demeanor leads to songs like ‘I’m Toast.’ Even the guitars sound depressed.
Our short film ‘Kahaa Toh Tha’ talks about how people can get irritated and frustrated with each other which leads to quarrels or fights.
Pointing out that overspending on public-employee benefits leads to fiscal instability does not mean that public employees are bad people or that they deserve to fall on hard times; it’s just observing a simple truth.
LeBron James has proven he can lead by example. My wish for LeBron is to understand the following: He’s an exceptional leader because he leads by example. The next step on the road to Legend, which he’s already on, is to trust he’s the best player in the best system anywhere in basketball.
Bad directors will tell you they absolutely know how to do it, and how it has to happen; there’s this insecurity that leads them to feeling like they have to control everything.
I never feel insecure when there are two female leads.
We had better dispense with the personification of evil, because it leads, all too easily, to the most dangerous kind of war: religious war.
The fear that ultimately leads to hate is something we need to change, and I want to do whatever I can to make the world a better place.
At present, the most effective way of preventing war would be for statesmen to direct politics so as to support a sound nationalism. This leads to concordance between people of kindred race and languages, whereas the conquest and coercion of people of different race and language inevitably lead to new wars.
Dating apps are brilliant for expanding your actual social network, which leads you to meet other people.
I went from being a senator, a young senator, to being considered for vice president, running for president, being a vice presidential candidate, and becoming a national public figure. All of which fed a self-focus, an egotism, a narcissism that leads you to believe that you can do whatever you want.
Having a loving relationship with our spouse or with our children is what leads to the long-term happiness we all seek.
What you would call a ‘lead,’ I’ve always considered a supporting part, and what people would call ‘supporting parts,’ I’ve considered leads. In a way, I look at it in reverse, because supporting parts – when they’re done correctly – are the ones that are progenitors for storylines, to move forward.
We get excited by ideas, and we’re more excited by being surprised by ideas than we are in dictating the course of events. We’ve found that leads to more interesting storytelling.
Hard work most often leads to success, but it’s not every day, and it’s not every week. It will pay off at different times over the course of your career.
I would rather be hired solely for my talent, not just to fill a quota. I also don’t want to shoot just any studio movie just to say I’m shooting studio movies – for me, quality of the material comes first, and if eventually that leads to a really great studio project, then that’s a bonus.
The America I know is trusted, sometimes guardedly, but among those who aspire to improve the lives of their citizens, among those who feel vulnerable, and among those who want an equal voice in a partnership, we remain the partner of choice. The America I know leads, sometimes cautiously, but always ethically.
I’ve learned that intelligence alone doesn’t mean a damn thing. It only leads to violence and pain.
I hope that every player makes a decision that leads to their own happiness, whatever happiness that is in life.
Seeking an acquisition from the start is more than just bad advice for an entrepreneur. For the entrepreneur it leads to short term tactical decisions rather than company-building decisions and in my view often reduces the probability of success.
When someone like me takes a sabbatical, it leads to a few happy realisations. It was only when I was away that I realised how films are such a big part of my life.
There’s obviously a correlation between an economically empowered woman and the investments she makes. That leads to her social and moral conscience for bettering her community.
I can do more than anyone suspects. I pride myself on my versatility. It took 32 years of difficult parts, second leads, villains and juveniles. The Oscar changed the quality of the roles I was being offered.
Crispy-skinned fish is an elusive thing. As soon as your filet makes contact with a hot pan, it wants to curl up, which leads to uneven cooking and floppy skin.
I’m a private guy, and you don’t want to be out there preaching to people. But faith leads you in the decisions you make. You don’t always pick the right path, but it’s there in your conscience.
I love playing sports. I’m overly eager and aggressive and not very skilled, so it leads to many small injuries.
Invariably, collaboration leads to new forms of self-expression and to the things that move you.
A lot of goals are scored when defenders lose their concentration for a split second and a forward makes a run in behind or gets that one extra step that leads to a shot.
I’ve played the leads in two British TV series. I’ve done a bunch of mini-series. Everybody in Australia is a bit in awe of BBC. I’ve worked for there, and that was a great experience.
I mean, it’s not just one day you get up, bang, and you got Osama bin Laden. It’s the kind of thing where an awful lot of people over a long period of time – thousands have worked this case and these issues and followed on the leads and captured bad guys and interrogated them and so-forth.
Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test it’s a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain.
Eviction often leads to a disruption in critical services like Medicaid and nutrition assistance when families need them most.
A narrative is like a room on whose walls a number of false doors have been painted; while within the narrative, we have many apparent choices of exit, but when the author leads us to one particular door, we know it is the right one because it opens.
I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I’m going is what inspires me to travel it.
Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.
Poetry leads us to the unstructured sources of our beings, to the unknown, and returns us to our rational, structured selves refreshed.
Prosperity often leads to pride, which leads to sin.
You hit a certain age and it’s, are you still motivated to play? It’s the motivation, the drive that kind of leads you, and the body goes, too.
I think I was on this very straightforward escalator – grammar school, high school, college, get a job on Wall Street, kind of everything leads to the next thing. But at what point do you get to step back and say, ‘I’d like to take a broader view of my time on this planet?’
The population of the U.S. is nearly 300 million, including many of the best educated, most talented, most resourceful, humane people on earth. By almost any measure of civilised attainment, from Nobel prize-counts on down, the U.S. leads the world by miles.
If in previous decades large historic events drew people together and oriented them toward collective action, the recent double trend toward greater choice but less security leads the young to see their lives in more individual terms. Big events collectivize. Little events atomize.
There are several factors in modern society that contribute to loneliness. One is that we are more mobile than we have been in decades past, which is fantastic in many respects, but also leads to us to move away from communities that we grew up with and got to know over time.
We live in a world where, for whatever reason, the conversations that tend to stick are the ones where ‘if it bleeds, it leads.’ But we’ve always been afraid of new technologies in spite of the fact that they’ve helped improve our lives in countless ways.
A straight path never leads anywhere except to the objective.
The Granite State needs a senator who knows that New Hampshire comes first – and leads like it.
I grew up not really seeing a lot of leads in the industry that weren’t like – and I look up to these people – but like Ryan Gosling and Christian Bale.
There are a million logical reasons to not make a film, and I think if you get focused on all the critics or money or any of that other stuff, it never leads anywhere good.
The prime reason behind making ‘A Flying Jatt’ was that there are barely any ‘desi’ superhero films in Bollywood which Indians can relate to. I wanted to exhibit that a superhero is more than just superpowers and leads a normal life like the others do. I wanted to attach a human factor to a superhero.
If, on occasion, the knowledge brought by science leads to an unhappy end, this is not to the discredit of science but is rather an indication of an imperfect ability to use wisely the gifts placed within our hands.
