I am grateful to those directors who actually designed roles for me.
Flip or Flop’ was a house show based on designing houses for the masses – they were always designed so that any person could walk in and like it and picture themselves living in it.
If you’re too dangerous to buy an airplane ticket, you’re too dangerous to buy an assault weapon. And, when we talk about the Second Amendment – I support the Second Amendment – but the Second Amendment was created and designed to prevent tyranny and not to encourage terror.
We should really focus on an American First agenda, and these climate pacts and climate regulations have been designed to not necessarily give American workers and the American environment a head start. It really gives our competition a greater ability to compete internationally and disadvantage American companies.
I finished college by July 15th, 1985, and by October 1985, I had a little stand during the trade show which was London Fashion week at the time. My stand was tiny – just 6 square meters in total – and I had my 12 shoes that I designed while in college.
The way I dig in to push myself through mountain climbs is totally psychological. I’m not designed to do that stuff. It’s mind over matter.
The House of Representatives was not designed to sit idly by and rubberstamp every piece of legislation sent their way by the Senate, especially legislation passed on a straight party line vote under the spurious policy of reconciliation.
The health care system is really designed to reward you for being unhealthy. If you are a healthy person and work hard to be healthy, there are no benefits.
I’m happy to report that the first Chromebook designed from the ground up to run Android apps out of the box has arrived, albeit a little past the end of 2016.
Traditional solutions as they stand are designed to aid the centralized party. That’s how it always has been. It will continue to be for the near future. As we evolve and we continue to gain more power and understanding, centralized bodies die down because there’s more power to the individual.
One of the great things about the Roomba robot vacuum cleaner, which my company iRobot designed, is that it’s too cheap not to be autonomous.
‘Survivor’ is a game that’s designed to be played with strangers, people with varied backgrounds from all parts of the country. The greatest part is that you can go into the game as anyone you want, hold any job you desire, and portray any personality you can think of.
When I was 18, I began attending college for art and design, and I designed all sorts of things from furniture to industrial designs and even watches.
VR is going to be defined by the content that is designed explicitly for virtual reality.
A camel is a horse designed by committee.
I grew up in L.A., and it’s one of those cities designed around cars instead of the people that live there. I spent hours every day stuck in traffic, having the experience of looking around and seeing one person in every car.
None of the body was designed to play football. Excuse me, you know, football, we’re just not designed for.
We’re not designed to know hundreds of people – we’re designed to know four people in our village. So the only way we can know hundreds of people is by reducing them to a stamp of their identity.
I’ve always been fascinated with how transportation systems work and how cities are designed.
I’ve met some of the most interesting, dimensional, and kind people of my life in that subculture and around the sport. And it seems to me that boxing is one of those structures that is designed to promote harmony. I think that it is a stove that contains that fire in us and makes it safe and useful.
Our brains have been designed to blur the line between self and other. It is an ancient neural circuitry that marks every mammal, from mouse to elephant.
I didn’t know people can be good. I didn’t know people are designed to be good and help one another.
Most regular superhero books are designed to go on forever; of course, very few of them do, but the point is they are trying to throw mud against the wall and hope it will stick, and most of it slides off.
My company is an extension of me, so when I designed my stores I wanted people to feel that they were in my home.
Biology is the study of complicated things that have the appearance of having been designed with a purpose.
Police departments, since the start of the history of this country, have been used to enforce unconstitutional laws that were designed to discriminate against communities of color and particularly African Americans.
I’ve designed since I was 12. The first was when I skated to Carmen, in red and gold and black. I wanted so many frills at that time. It had a lot going on for a little person like me. And I picked out fabrics that didn’t stretch. Very uncomfortable.
Slang has always moved this way. From Cockney rhyming slang to codes swapped among highwaymen, they’re tribal badges of identity, bonding mechanisms designed to distinguish the initiated, and to keep strangers out.
The major rock instruments and classical instruments were designed for performance, for sharing the music with an audience, and then later people put microphones on them and recorded them. But for electronic music, the opposite was true – they’re designed in laboratories, and later, we tried to put them on stage.
In the Chinese view, the United States has designed its own system of rules about what constitutes ‘legal’ spying and what is illegal.
The Xbox 360 is the best game console ever designed. It’s fast and powerful – games look as good on the 360 as on high-end PCs that cost six times as much. It’s easy to navigate and has lots of useful secondary features – the ability to play digital video, stream MP3s, and so on.
There is no reason that the universe should be designed for our convenience.
The devices that our kids use are shipped from the factory with every possible audio, visual or vibration alert switched on. Each new app, website, tweet and message adds another layer of intrusion – each intrusion is cynically designed to get a response, and each response creates an appetite for another intrusion.
One of the main reasons I am so drawn to Hitchcock is that he planned his shots way in advance on story-boards, which he designed like classic paintings (he was an art connoisseur). It’s why he found shooting on set boring – because he had already composed the film in his head.
The evolutionary theory of senescence can be stated as follows: while bodies are not designed to fail, neither are they designed for extended operation.
I’m not designed to interact with society.
I sing about UFOs and extraterrestrials, and so I designed a UFO fashion. It includes science-fiction bikinis and Bermuda Triangle shorts.
The ability to recognize opportunities and move in new – and sometimes unexpected – directions will benefit you no matter your interests or aspirations. A liberal arts education is designed to equip students for just such flexibility and imagination.
The power of the silent filibuster to distort Senate politics is now accepted on Capitol Hill and by the press as normal and not worth mentioning. Let me be the skunk at this political garden party and say this stinks. Representative government was not designed to work this way by the Founding Fathers.
When ‘Blade Runner’ came out, and especially, even actually when ‘Alien’ came out, it kind of changed how all science fiction movies were designed after that. And that was a really great thing. Now we’re watching a lot of movies that are Xeroxes of Xeroxes of Xeroxes of Xeroxes of ‘Blade Runner.’
Designing kids clothes is something personal to me because I’m a mother. So to be able to see my kids wearing something I’ve designed is very fulfilling. With the kids’ collection, we really try to focus on great quality with an accessible price point in styles that appeal to both parents and kids.
An antenna collects radiation from a desired direction incident upon an area, called its collecting area, and focuses it on a receiver. An antenna is normally designed to maximize its response in the direction in which it is pointed and minimize its response in other directions.
The Constitution is not neutral. It was designed to take the government off the backs of people.
‘Starcraft’ was never designed to support multi-byte languages. In order to support more complicated languages like Korean or Chinese, you need two bytes of storage and ‘Starcraft’ only had one byte.
Everything I write is designed to be milked to the last drop of revenue.
You can cook a limited number of sous vide recipes in a beer cooler, but if the person you’re buying for wants to start cooking like the pros, they’ll need a dedicated circulator that’s designed to maintain the temperature of a water bath to within one degree.
For so long, the fashion industry has designed almost exclusively for a particular woman with particular measurements, and they’ve never really been challenged on it. We’re all consumers, yet we’re rarely given a voice within this industry that dictates what we wear.
Bottom line, your body is a temple, and you have to treat it that way. That’s how God designed it.
Social Security is a social insurance program – it is not designed to be the same thing as a 401(k).
When I announced the development of Perl 6, I said it was going to be a community design. I designed Perl, myself. It’s limited by my own brain power. So I wanted Perl 6 to be a community design.
