I feel that I have not got my due in films. However, I did a lot of good work on television and that’s why I never got typecast.
I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.

It would be a bitter cosmic joke if we destroy ourselves due to atrophy of the imagination.
The idea of creating film scores was terrifying for many years, into my 30s. It struck me as a career of doing 30-page term papers the night before they’re due.

There can be little doubt that absence from work, and inefficient work, are frequently due to intemperance.

The problem of the minimum dwelling is that of establishing the elementary minimum of space, air, light, and heat required by man in order that he be able to fully develop his life functions without experiencing limitations due to his dwelling, i.e. a minimum modus vivendi in place of a modus non moriendi.

Too many of my constituents, like many other hard working Americans across the country, are suffering unnecessarily due to our flawed health care system.

I absolutely loathe adverts. I won’t go into the cinema until 20 minutes after the film is due to start because there are so many.
If you have a lot of short-term debt, it means that all of that money can be demanded in a very short period of time. Technically, short-term debt means money that’s coming due within a year. Typically, it means money that’s coming due within 30 to 90 days.
I basically have needed to go to the piano and give voice periodically to, you know – I’m always afraid to describe it as a kind of therapeutic process, but nevertheless it was a type of unloading that had to occur due to my personal life with my mother’s health or just my professional trials and tribulations.
A large part of the present anxiety to improve the education of girls and women is also due to the conviction that the political disabilities of women will not be maintained.
I find it very difficult when, due to a lack of confidence, I don’t produce and lose matches I could have won.
I am unable to watch the Olympics due to the blustering jingoism that drenches the event. Has England ever been quite so foul with patriotism? The ‘dazzling royals’ have, quite naturally, hi-jacked the Olympics for their own empirical needs, and no oppositional voice is allowed in the free press.
Due to the world I’ve been part of in creating art for so many years, I feel really connected to pop culture and what younger people are talking about.
I have arrived at the conviction that the neglect by economists to discuss seriously what is really the crucial problem of our time is due to a certain timidity about soiling their hands by going from purely scientific questions into value questions.

Premonitions, presentiments, the sensing of unseen presences and many allied experiences are due to the activity of the astral body and its reaction on the physical; their ever-increasing frequency is merely the result of its evolution among educated people.
This much I would say: Socialism has failed all over the world. In the eighties, I would hear every day that there is no inflation in the Soviet Union, there is no poverty in the Soviet Union, there is no unemployment in the Soviet Union. And now we find that, due to Socialism, there is no Soviet Union!
It has always been my dream to open a school for the poor children in the city who drop out of school due to financial problems.
When people are self-entitled for no reason, just with anything, that bothers me. It’s like waiting for someone to cross the road, and they walk slower because they know you’re waiting. I like all the credit due in the places that it’s supposed to be due.
I have cleared the eyeball test and still haven’t gotten my just due. That drives me to become more and more successful because of the lack of everything they have been giving me.

It takes 300 years, it seems, for the great bands to get their due.
I always have a contract with a character. Even when he’s unappealing. The contract is to give him his due. To tell his story. And to keep his secrets.
The thinner a newspaper or magazine is – due to reduced revenue from advertising dollars – the less editorial content because of the standard ad-to-editorial ratio, and the less money there is to support investigative journalism.
Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favor.
A lot of times, people have something that they’re afraid of. They’ve got a client that’s mad at them. They’ve got a project that’s due. And they let that stress hang over their head. I don’t let that happen.
Due to the closure of many deaf schools in the U.K., deaf children are forced to attend mainstream school. I don’t mind this idea: I think it’s inclusive, and it better prepares children for life in a hearing world. I don’t mind this idea – if that child gets the right support.
I really believe that my family’s infrequency of getting sick is due to our diet.
You will not accept credit that is due to another, or harbor jealousy of an explorer who is more fortunate.
The whole religious complexion of the modern world is due to the absence from Jerusalem of a lunatic asylum.
Puerto Ricans are so well educated, they’re so capable, they’re so competent, but due to a lack of opportunity, when you graduate from college, you leave. Puerto Rico’s number one export is human beings; Puerto Ricans!
Thankfully, due to the United Kingdom and the commitment of the Westminster government we are able to ensure that money brought in, whether it be from the City of London or from North Sea oil, can be pooled and directed to wherever it is needed most. That is what being in the United Kingdom is all about.
American families want high-quality children’s television programming. Unfortunately, due to outdated rules, broadcasters are hamstrung from meeting market demand.
