I ran to the arts, because the arts are the one thing that would never abandon me.
The one thing that makes me nuts is if there’s a problem or something that I don’t know about.
The one thing about ‘Beautiful Creatures,’ ‘The Host’ and ‘The Mortal Instruments,’ which are all well-made movies, is that they were all infected with a dreadful sincerity.
You change the mind and world of one individual and that’s huge, man. You reach one person and that starts a spiral effect and starts to snowball. I think that’s the one thing as an athlete we should all focus on doing and that’s striving to give back in a positive manner.
The one thing I’ve learned in sports entertainment is that nothing is for certain, and you never say never.
As a shooter, the one thing you want to be is consistent.
The one thing I’ve always said: Let your family and close friends be the judge of who you are as a person. Don’t worry about being judged by others who don’t know you, because your family and close friends know what you’re all about, good and bad.
I’ve played a long time and had success in a lot of areas. The one thing that eludes a lot of us is a championship. The teams that get there have guys willing to make adjustments, to sacrifice. I’m willing.
Working on a sitcom and improv improves your comedic chops. If you do it long enough, the one thing you learn to do is listen to the other characters.

The one thing I really learned, and learned well, in group therapy was that you don’t die if someone doesn’t like you.
No matter what, all I want to do is win. I don’t care what anybody says, any media outlet, anybody says as a person; the one thing they can’t say is that I don’t want to win.
I used to go red when anybody spoke to me. It’s awful because you absolutely cannot control it. If you are a child that blushes, or is shy, the one thing you want in the world is to be the child who comes in and says, ‘Hi,’ to everyone and goes up and makes friends.
I do like change. That’s the one thing exciting about me.
The one thing for an actor that is complete death is if you’re bored, because that boredom will show in your work.
The one thing that saved me is that in 17 years of coaching I never had an NCAA investigator talk to one of my players. I lost games, but I lost the right way.
I don’t like to be a preacher or anything, but the one thing that I’ve learned is that you truly are what you eat.
The essence of my character is an inability to get used to things. This, in fact, is the one thing I have grown accustomed to: an inability to get used to things.
Apart from death and taxes, the one thing that’s certain in this life is that I’ll never be a fashion icon.
I’ve had to take a lot of stick down the years but the one thing that really got to me was when someone questioned my integrity. It’s the one thing that really grates with you.
I knew from the age of five what I wanted to do. The one thing I could do was draw. I couldn’t draw that much better than some of the other kids, but I cared more and I wanted it badly.
The one thing you can ask, I think, is that actors get paid a living wage. I would like it if all the repertory theatres that currently exist could do that. It would make a huge difference.
The one thing I regret is that I will never have time to read all the books I want to read.
The one thing we know today is we can’t continue to do business the way we have in the past.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I feel pressed and tense almost every day of my life about something or other. And I think it’s the one thing, as I look into people’s eyes, that I think I share with almost everybody.
For almost 20 years, I’ve reported on some amazing feats of athleticism for ESPN. But the one thing that stood out, game after game, is that it takes a team to win. When I got cancer, that lesson got personal. And Team Livestrong became my team.
Time is the one thing I can’t get back and can’t give back to you.
The one thing that advances a society is not technology or so-called development; it’s love – that one principle.
The one thing that nobody else in the world can touch is the coffee in Australia.
The iPod Touch is basically an iPhone with the phone part taken out, which is fine – since making calls is the one thing that the iPhone doesn’t actually do very well.
I was passionate about ‘Strictly.’ I was passionate about it in every way, but the one thing that I always felt I did was give good advice as to how the contestants could improve.
I think of comedy as my man: it’s the one thing I can always rely on that will keep me safe, keep me fed, put a roof over my head.
The one thing that Redfin has been really good at has been at delighting people.
I believe that capitalism is the one thing in this world that’s brought people out of poverty.
The one thing about art is you can’t question it. Everyone is looking at everyone else to find out what’s cool. No one knows what’s cool.
I think I always knew that I would do something with art because it was the one thing that I knew I was really good at.
I never intended to be a professional writer; as the story developed, the one thing I had in my hopes was that this would be something tangible to separate me from the nameless, numbered masses.
The one thing that I’m really obsessed with is multi-camera comedy. It is a form that is unique to network television.
There’s a lot that’s out of your control. But the one thing that you can control is your work ethic.
If people decide thin is out, the fashion industry won’t have thin models anymore. Have you spent time with fashion people? They are ruthless. They want money. And the one thing they know is people want clothes to cover their bodies. Unfortunately, most people aren’t comfortable with their bodies.
We left Egypt when I was seven, and we didn’t return until I was 21. My teen years were divided between the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia. Up until we left the U.K., it was like your regular teenage years. The one thing I remember is that I couldn’t date. That was one thing my parents made very clear.
The one thing we know about the future is that it comes only one day at a time.
I think the one thing I can say is not to play through concussions. I think that’s unwise.
I’ve been wanting to do a book about baseball for the longest time, and nobody will let me do it. It’s the one thing from America I really miss.
The one thing that always bothered me when I played in the NBA was I really got irritated when they put a white guy on me.
I would say that the one thing I miss obviously is the in-ring action. The closest I get to that is being able to teach big groups of women and leading them down the path towards empowerment towards jiu-jitsu.
A lot of fighters have skills, they have talent. The one thing that you can’t train is a strong mind.
I was a scorer in college. That was the one thing that I loved to do, I loved to score the basketball.
The one thing more important to my parents than my career is that I am happily married.
The one thing that Pop taught me was to be myself.
The one thing we should address is how design can play a role in the psychological durability of objects, to think of how objects can be engineered in a way that they will be good over time.
The one thing you don’t want to do is get to a point where losing becomes a habit.
The one thing I do believe is, if you make the songs about the human aspects of things, you’ve got a much better chance of having the music transcend the times. If you make them very political and very topical, it’s going to date very quickly.
My grandmother taught me how to make the basic pate brise pastry crust when I was young. The one thing I learned simply by eating her endless variations on delicious tarts for dinner every night is that this dough can be used for just about anything – sweet or savory.
The one thing that ‘Via Dolorosa’ has is no opinions. To me, curiosity is 50 times as valuable as opinion.
I think my parents were really smart parents. I think they were, actually, pretty progressive for the time. The one thing that they really wanted me to know is what makes me tick, what I am about, how I approach life. And I think what my parents really wanted for me was for me to be who I am.
I was a fairly good amateur musician, and I was an average professional. But the one thing I saw was that the big band business was fading. So I made an economic decision, and it turned out the best judgment I ever made in my life.
That’s the one thing I don’t like hearing, when someone says, ‘We’ll see what happens, see what happens here, see what happens there.’ Forget all of that.
I write all of my songs from scratch, so the one thing I love about EDM is the way a song transforms into a piece of art, and how the different sounds can change the feel of the record.
