At 23, I know I’m nowhere close to where I want to be and where I need to be and where I’m going to be.
My dad used to get to the nastiest letters. But somebody had to take the time to type it, stamp it, send it to him, send it to the radio station. And I mean nasty stuff. It’s not like nasty people with nasty opinions just popped up out of nowhere.
Consciousness is an end in itself. We torture ourselves getting somewhere, and when we get there it is nowhere, for there is nowhere to get to.
Our fighters would be nowhere if they didn’t have the support coming from folks like those that served with me.
I’ve had fun doing romantic comedies, but I just can’t anymore. There’s nothing fulfilling creatively, there’s nowhere to grow, nothing to learn from it or for yourself. I’d rather just be home with my family or write music until that special project comes my way.
Took me a long time to know I was a nobody from nowhere.
I think that somebody with the resources and innovation and the idea is going to come out of nowhere and come up with a successful space travel program.

I think the future of this planet depends on humans, not technology, and we already have the knowledge – we’re kind of at the endgame with knowledge. But we’re nowhere near the endgame when it comes to our perception. We still have one foot in the dark ages.
Nowhere in the world will you find a cowboy speaking in Tamil.
Nowhere does our Constitution say we cannot say something about another’s religion. Nowhere does our Constitution say we cannot say anything that offends someone.
If anyone thinks that Jews can steal into the land of their fathers, he is deceiving either himself or others. Nowhere is the coming of Jews so promptly noted as in the historic home of the Jews, for the very reason that it is the historic home.
A lot needs to be done for Indian sport and with our potential we are nowhere near where we can be.
The cat is classic whilst the dog is Gothic – nowhere in the animal world can we discover such really Hellenic perfection of form, with anatomy adapted to function, as in the felidae.
Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.
Our pool is outdoors, but it’s heated, and I’ve got one of those machines that produces waves you have to swim against; like a jogging treadmill, really, only it’s in water. Basically, it means you can have a small pool, swim for miles, and get nowhere.
We don’t mind if people think we’ve come from nowhere. Because once they’ve become fans, they’ll delve deeper in and will be surprised to find we’ve been around awhile and that we’ve had a lot of experience doing this.
I think women of our generation went through Cultural Revolution, went through hardship, coming from nowhere, and suddenly see China’s amazing opportunity. So women just seized the opportunity.
I have a lot of confidence in myself, but I’m nowhere near as good as Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, Kasey Kahne. I think over time I hopefully can be.
To see classic rock, you had to go to an arena. But punk was happening everywhere, even in little towns in the middle of nowhere in Maryland. I’d drive out to places I’d never been, just to go and see it.
I was growing up and maturing at a time where we were invisible, man. We were nowhere except negative. Any time you saw a Latin person in Hollywood or on TV, they were some sort of negative character.
You can go to the doctor a million times if you’re feeling down, and get nowhere, but if you go for a run it makes you feel really good.
The soul which has no fixed purpose in life is lost; to be everywhere, is to be nowhere.
‘Deadpool’ feels like it exploded out of nowhere, but it was a ten-year development process on that movie. I think it was honed over those ten years.
Boeing, LockMart, and hundreds of other companies, large and small, work in the space business, and they also create new techniques and technology; but they’d be nowhere if NASA and the Department of Defense hadn’t shown the way by funding the first big rockets and satellites.
When you’re a front man for a band, there’s nowhere to hide. It took me a long time to get used to that. But music is my first love. I started singing when I talked.
If you look at a map, you see that Hawaii is in the middle of nowhere. It’s 17 hours of straight flying from London. It’s very far away, and sometimes you feel as if you’re on another planet. But I like that. Also, that’s ideal for writing.
My wife and I were on our honeymoon in Turks and Caicos, in the middle of nowhere, and I’m sitting on this deserted beach, and I see one lone person walking along the shore. He walks right up to me and says, ‘I love ‘Laser Cats,’ and then just walks away.
If John McDonnell nationalised whole industries, they would be quickly taken over by bureaucrats more concerned about their careers than about customers. Except this time, there will be no choice and nowhere to turn when things go wrong.
I understand why creative people like dark, but American audiences don’t like dark. They like story. They do not respond to nervous breakdowns and unhappy episodes that lead nowhere. They like their characters to be a part of the action. They like strength, not weakness, a chance to work out any dilemma.
Tightening up border and immigration controls go nowhere in addressing the underlying causes of terrorism in our society and in our world.
We were kids that didn’t have any education. None of our parents were in the music business or even college graduates. We didn’t have someone guiding us. We were just uneducated kids from the middle of nowhere that suddenly had a band going around the world.
Our congressional district is the fastest growing in the state. Nowhere is there a greater need for new and improved roads and transit systems that will spare us the hours we spend each day in traffic.
I have to say to the Government that you are not even getting nowhere fast – you are getting nowhere slowly.
I run from Horatio Street down just past Battery Park City and back. It’s amazing to run and see the Statue of Liberty and the ferries coming in. People think if you’re not near Central Park, there’s nowhere to go, but there’s a whole ecosystem happening down here.
Nothing matches the sheer euphoria of discovering a new melody or a new batch of chords that just come out of nowhere.
I come from nowhere Brooklyn, New York. Williamsburg, Brooklyn. These days Williamsburg is kind of a hip area, but when I grew up there, the taxi drivers wouldn’t even go over the bridge, it was so dangerous.
I do enjoy walking, but there’s got to be a goal at end of it. It’s one of the reasons I hate treadmills. All that jogging and going nowhere – it’s too frustrating.
Doug Stanhope is great – I saw his ‘Burning the Bridge to Nowhere’ show and it was inspiring. He’s like an anti-shaman, taking the sting out of a bunch of things we’ve chosen to give a symbolic power to. I’ve made it sound noble and worthy there, it’s not, it’s really funny.
Philosophy: A route of many roads leading from nowhere to nothing.
My song ‘Play It Again’ is a perfect example of my music because the verses go so hard, and they’re so urban; and then this pop hook comes out of nowhere and socks you in the face and makes you want to dance.
There are libertarians who are survivalists, who live in the middle of nowhere and who are ready for the world to end. And then there are pragmatists, and I would consider myself to be a pretty pragmatic person.
Even if I’m not vocally my best, if I have a head cold, as an actor, I cannot give anything less than my very, very best. There’s nowhere to hide!
Imperfection clings to a person, and if they wait till they are brushed off entirely, they would spin for ever on their axis, advancing nowhere.
My best stories come out of nowhere, with no concern for form at all.
I don’t just hop in the car. I have destinations. I drive to relax. I’ll be gone for two weeks, hit four or five major cities. I don’t like being nowhere for more than two or three days. I just go. I don’t have a schedule.
I’d been sending out demos and CDs for years. I knew my stuff was good enough, but I was getting nowhere. Then, three people – my future manager and two publishers – happened to send one of my tracks to EMI publishing in the same week. All of a sudden, they were interested!
I’ve come from nowhere, and I’m not shy to go back.
Nowhere have I felt so much awesome responsibility than when teaching my daughter that there is no wrong way to be herself – to be a young woman, whatever her size.
I sometimes wonder what would’ve happened if I’d entered the competition instead – I’d probably have come nowhere and given up on the whole fiction game.
