At Mardi Gras, the different tribes will basically play war games, and so my brother is what you call a Flag Boy, which is more of less like a tribe’s diplomat. He carries the game’s standard and is really the line of where the game starts.
Every person who starts at Boxed does shifts at the fulfillment center. It doesn’t matter if you are the general counsel or the COO.
Persistence pushes me to be bold and seek out the opportunities I’ve wanted. It starts by envisioning what you want, no matter how big or small, and believing that you can achieve it.
You can learn a lot from criticism if you can take what’s constructive out of it. If you read a review that starts with, ‘This person is an idiot; who do they think they are?’, you’re not going to learn anything from that.
Our brain starts a long degenerative arc beginning around age 40.
My day starts with Radio 4’s Today live or ‘listen again’ wherever I am in the world, thanks to digital radio – I even have an app on my iPhone that receives it.

When anyone starts out to do something creative – especially if it seems a little unusual – they seek approval, often from those least inclined to give it. But a creative life cannot be sustained by approval, any more than it can be destroyed by criticism – you learn this as you go on.
Everything ultimately becomes the CEO’s problem, no matter where it starts. I can see why some CEOs crack under the pressure.

It’s a great thing that the United States has given the rest of the world – no other country has given such great popular music to the Far East and Europe. When I play those great countries, a lot of times, the audience starts singing the songs with me. They know them. They love them.
Contention does not usually begin as strife between countries. More often, it starts with an individual, for we can contend within ourselves over simple matters of right and wrong. From there, contention can infect neighbors and nations like a spreading sore.

‘Analyze This’ is a good movie because Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal are really good. But without the material to put on the play, of course, they couldn’t be good. For me, it starts with the writing. I always think that the writer is doing the vast majority of the director’s work, in a sense.
I know not everyone starts out reading high literature. If you read enough you might be drawn to some other things, so maybe those vampire books are what they call ‘gateway books.’ I just coined that term. I don’t know if there’s a thing called ‘gateway books.’
The thing about relationships is, the stronger they get, the more rapidly the realm of romance starts to overlap with the domestic.
I rarely, if ever, had another book in mind while I was writing the previous book. Each book starts from ashes, really.

Let’s hope the Canadian public sector starts putting the blockchain on their agenda so we can see a significant difference in how government services are delivered.
For decades, or at least for years, Republican politicians have been dog whistling about race. And then, when – they’re shocked when Donald Trump starts barking.
The future starts today, not tomorrow.
For me, songwriting starts with a melody. When a musician plays a chord progression, either the words and vocal melody come to me, or they don’t. That’s how I determine who to write with. It works, or it doesn’t.
The key to sauces is having patience. I’m not a patient woman, but I learned with sauces that you have to get everything on a slow roll and layer the flavors. That’s where you get robust tastes: it starts one way and ends another.

When the water starts boiling it is foolish to turn off the heat.
The problem with motor neurone disease is they don’t know when it starts. People go into hospital having fallen but get wrapped up and sent away, unless they’re seen by an incredibly astute doctor. It is only when several things begin to go wrong that it’ll be diagnosed.
Learning starts with failure; the first failure is the beginning of education.
I love sushi. But after too much of it, it just starts to taste like a dead animal that hasn’t been cooked.
I can’t sculpt. But if I were a sculptor, as you start to get something that actually looks like what you want, then it starts to be fun. That’s the way I find writing.
All ballplayers should quit when it starts to feel as if all the baselines run uphill.
The dynamic between two individuals starts off with everything warm and nice and fabulous and good. Working and living together can serve you quite well, but when it starts to go wrong – oh, boy!
Some people lose sense of what their music was when their life starts to get better.

We all need to figure out what’s right for us because nothing about life is one size fits all. Even for an Olympian, that’s for sure. And such discovery starts with you paying attention – to yourself.
For me to train and get ready for racing, I can’t just sit in the gym all the time and that’s the way it is. Responsibility starts and stops with me. My main gig is grand prix driving, that’s what I do and I need to keep that in the forefront of my mind.
