Love involves a peculiar unfathomable combination of understanding and misunderstanding.
I was lucky enough to see the original cast of ‘In the Heights.’ This one blew my mind. The infusion of Latin, hip hop and rap with musical theatre, great storytelling and talent was a powerful combination to me during a time when I’d not been moved by much!
It’s a combination of melody and lyrics, not one without the other. It’s a confluence of these different elements that makes something powerful.

Playing Ann Landers is like channeling my mother. That combination of love and the enjoyment of life is my mother. And you find that combination in Ann Landers’ letters.
I love Texas itself. The landscape is remarkable. The combination of cultures here is incredible. And the history here is pretty remarkable, too, going back centuries.
Well-being cannot exist just in your own head. Well-being is a combination of feeling good as well as actually having meaning, good relationships and accomplishment.
Lemon curd is a basic custard, meaning it’s thickened by eggs. Although many curd recipes call for just yolks, I prefer to use a combination of whole eggs and yolks to add a bit of lightness.
Inventing is a combination of brains and materials. The more brains you use, the less material you need.
It’s difficult to say what attracts one person to another. It’s always a combination, isn’t it? I’ve always found people interesting because of the way they think, and a sense of humour is irresistible.
The right combination is between a free economy and social policy that addresses the needs of society and creates equal opportunity.
If Labour ends up on the scrapheap of history, it will do so because of its own foolishness and self-inflicted wounds. What party in its right mind would allow a combination of far-left enemies, militant trade unions and first-time supporters to decide its fate?
I have always worked out, and I’ve gone through different phases of yoga, but the combination of Pilates three days a week with yoga is incredible.
I think only of objects: of a leg or an arm, of the wonderful sense of foreshortening, breaking through the plane, of the division of space, of the combination of straight lines in relation to curved ones.
A great physique and a good performance make for a delicious combination.
I think New York is truly unique in its singular combination of the quality of both the talent it attracts and the ingredients it grows. There are plenty of other places in the world with wonderful natural resources, but the people who come here to pursue their passions for food and cooking – they are one of a kind.
The cloning procedure is similar to IVF. The only difference is that the DNA of sperm and egg would be replaced by DNA from an adult cell. What law or principle – secular, humanist, or religious – says that one combination of genetic material in a flask is OK, but another is not?
The Beatles just changed everything right across the board. They just had that right combination of clean-cut good looks – a cute band – but under that they had a real rock n’ roll thing going on.
If I were to put on Barbra Streisand and Duke Ellington, one might say the combination isn’t good.
I think foosball is a combination of soccer and shish kabobs.
Where the quest for knowledge is relatively, and now almost absolutely, unrestrained, the public benefit will be great, especially where the certainty of the law ensures that knowledge is rewarded. This is exactly the combination that is the foundation of wealth-creation.
What I love about French gardens is the combination of formal elegance and intellectual questioning.
God gave women intuition and femininity. Used properly, the combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I’ve ever met.
Being fit is almost as important to me as my face. And for me, it’s a combination of being spiritually and physically fit. There are guys who want to look good, and there are guys who want to perform at their best. Being fit is about being able to perform at your best, not necessarily just looking your best.
I’m partial to epic poetry, which might be surprising given that I don’t write poetry at all. The combination of rollicking storytelling with musical language seems to me the highest achievement.
The combination between the speed, personality, and being able to temper your emotions in both directions is a great ingredient.
I started collecting aerial photographs of Native American and South Pacific architecture; only the African ones were fractal. And if you think about it, all these different societies have different geometric design themes that they use. So Native Americans use a combination of circular symmetry and fourfold symmetry.
There is never just one thing that leads to success for anyone. I feel it always a combination of passion, dedication, hard work, and being in the right place at the right time.
The Peninsula – it’s a combination of great service and good design.
From their breakout 2002 single, ‘Losing My Edge,’ LCD Soundsystem have offered a unique combination of geek knowledge, passion and intelligent, ironic distance.
‘Poltergeist’ was really the film that really scarred but fascinated me with puppets and dolls, clowns, and stuff like that. I’ve always been afraid of clowns, and then my fear of puppets came around, and ‘Poltergeist’ was the perfect combination to scare me with a clown doll.
Great investors need to have the right combination of intuition, business sense and investment talent.
I learned that a long walk and calm conversation are an incredible combination if you want to build a bridge.
Using the correct apps can completely change how your photos look. It’s really exciting because once you’ve already taken a good photo, it can become 10 times better if you use the right combination of apps. My favorites are VSCO Cam, Afterlight, Facetune and SKRWT.
Ice cream is the perfect buffer, because you can do things in a somewhat lighthearted way. Plus, people have an emotional response to ice cream; it’s more than just food. So I think when you combine caring, and eating wonderful food, it’s a very powerful combination.
Most of the really successful civilisations survived because they were protected from invasion by mountains, sea, deserts, or a combination of these things. Ask the Russians or the Poles what it’s like to live without the shield of the sea.

I think marriage and athletes is a bad combination.
The world is being re-shaped by the convergence of social, mobile, cloud, big data, community and other powerful forces. The combination of these technologies unlocks an incredible opportunity to connect everything together in a new way and is dramatically transforming the way we live and work.

There’s an alternative. There’s always a third way, and it’s not a combination of the other two ways. It’s a different way.
Philosophy is like trying to open a safe with a combination lock: each little adjustment of the dials seems to achieve nothing, only when everything is in place does the door open.
I have a glass of alkaline water first thing. I don’t have the biggest appetite in the morning, which is kind of tough for me, but I always start with a green drink called Tonic Alchemy. It’s a really amazing combination drink that has a lot of different superfoods and algae and Chinese herbs.
The combination of Ponzi’s huge personality and the enormous if brief success of his scheme, combined with the tremendous publicity which surrounded it, is ultimately what attached his name to it.
The idea for Chipotle is a sort of combination of food borrowed from Stars and sort of a technique and a service format borrowed from the taquerias.
For many people, managing pain involves using prescription medicine in combination with complementary techniques like physical therapy, acupuncture, yoga and massage. I appreciate this because I truly believe medical care should address the person as a whole – their mind, body, and spirit.
There was a combination of shyness and just fear of looking stupid that kept me out of a lot of interesting creative conversations that I could have had at an early age.
It was a combination of an intense interest in children’s literature, which I’ve always had, and the feeling that I’d just have a go and see if I could do it.
