With respect to the world of football, I earn a normal wage. But compared to 99.9% of Spain and the rest of the world, I earn an obscene amount.
Marriage is a walk in the park compared to being a single mother or father. I’ll take that walk later.
I’m not an outgoing person. Compared to an average person, I am quite skeptical and pessimistic. This is different from being nervous.
I feel like an ‘8 Mile’ Eminem compared to ‘My Name is.’ Whenever my name is brought up, it’s in a ‘Slim Shady’ way, and it’s funny, and I’m lighthearted, but at the same time, every once in a while, I like to take it seriously.
Maybe one of my strengths was to bring the energy to the team, and then defensively, I contributed a lot compared to other players, which is quite essential for the big matches; you know, against big clubs, you need to be very cautious with opponents that attack.
To be compared to Brett Favre is pretty special, but he was his own player, and so am I. I’m not trying to be Brett Favre, Jr., the second coming. I want to be myself, and I want to be the best to ever play.
China and the U.S. have a very symbiotic relationship which will not decline any time soon. There are more shared interests as compared to shared differences and for this reason relations will continue to be good.

Baseball, boxing, handball – sooner or later every game gets compared to narrative, but only in football are the plays perfectly linear, drawn up with letters, and only in football is the field itself lined like a sheet of notebook paper.
I’m an angel compared to some of my friends.
War is a blessing compared with national degradation.
I guess Zeppelin is some happy stuff compared to us. It’s pretty hippy, too.

Harvard University researchers found that women at high risk of heart disease who had a tablespoon of peanut butter five or more days a week appeared to nearly halve their risk of suffering a heart attack compared with women who ate one serving or less per week.
I’m not skinny for the wrong reasons. It’s not because I’m bulimic or anorexic or doing drugs. Compared to a lot of actresses my age, I’m actually overweight.
Even though loneliness affects so many of us, it has gotten scant research attention compared to related conditions like depression or anxiety.
To teach an academic subject is certainly not easy, but compared to coaching, it is. We can say ‘two plus two is four’ to every kid and be sure that we are right. But in coaching, we have to literally get to the soul of the people we are dealing with.
Compared to my role in ‘Happy Days,’ my role in ‘Kotha Bangaru Lokam’ is completely contrast specially in the body language.
A different demographic of people watch NXT compared to Raw and Smackdown; NXT is followed by the real knowledgeable, hardcore internet audience, whereas the main shows have a more family feel.
Compared with members of other nations of Western civilization, the ordinary American is a rationalistic being, and there are close relations between his moralism and his rationalism. Even romanticism, transcendentalism, and mysticism tend to be, in the American culture, rational, pragmatic and optimistic.
The original sense of the word ‘influence’ is ‘to flow into.’ For the most part, these writers that I admire… their style flows into me without my intervention, which is what explains the broad range of writers who I’ve been compared with; it reflects my reading.
The worst constructed play is a Bach fugue when compared to life.
I think ‘Glee’ was a freshman comedy, and I think whenever it’s your debut season, you get compared a lot to the other shows, regardless if there’s any sort of overlap in content or tone or anything, just because you came out in the same year.
Wood pellet grilling could potentially have a lower risk of cancer when compared to other forms of grilling, as some people say that it leads to the creation of fewer carcinogens.
I never asked to be compared to Richard Pryor. I just realised he was one of the greatest humorists we’d ever had on earth, I knew I wanted to be like that.
I’m a pretty boring guy. Compared to Ashton Kutcher, I live a really boring existence.
The thought processes that go through my head when I’m playing a game compared to the thought processes in real life are very, very different. And they’re more interesting to me than what you think about when you’re doing the dishes, cleaning the yard, watching TV, driving or watching a movie.
I like the House. The House is where you can effect the most change. It’s such a fast-moving dynamic body compared to the Senate.

Certain films, when shot digitally, the detail is like CG: you can’t feel the sweat. I feel like digital is alienating. There’s something superficial to digital compared to the richness of film.
I lived in the Republic of Ireland. I wrote a book about the North but as an outsider. The hatreds there were not mine. I never felt them. I liked how open in most ways Catalan nationalism was, compared to Irish nationalism. I disliked the violence and cruelty in Ireland.
We have not had a ton of innovation and marketing in the concert industry, much like the record industry. We have been a fairly old-school business compared to Coca-Cola and the big packaging/marketing companies.
The time has mainly gone on getting Inform into a decent shape for public use. I suppose the plot of ‘Curses’ makes a sequel conceivable when compared with, say, the plot of ‘Hamlet’ but none is planned.
I couldn’t have children, so that’s the bad side. But compared to everything else I have, it’s not all that terribly bad. I count my winners rather than my losers.
The learning and knowledge that we have, is, at the most, but little compared with that of which we are ignorant.
I can understand getting compared to the Kardashians.
I knew that I had it tough compared to children around me. But I felt like I needed it. I think I had the wisdom as a child to know that it would help me later on.
I actually prefer teammates that have emotions. It means you care, compared to a guy that’s kind of just nonchalant and goes about it like it doesn’t matter. So I want guys that care. I want guys that show they care.
There are few celebrities that I don’t know personally. And compared to the rich, most of the famous live in the poorhouse. It’s much better to be rich than famous.
Fan reaction is so out-sized and hyperbolic in rock music compared to other arts.
Compared even to the development of the phone or TV, the Web developed very quickly.
I didn’t know I was compared to Elizabeth Montgomery, but I think that I’m in very good company with her.
If I compared myself to my kids, they know everything, and they’re like small little hackers. I feel also that my identity can be stolen; I’m very paranoid about it compared to other people in the younger generation.
Well, there’s much more time to do a weekly show, and much more coverage – as it turns out, it was all preparation for the stuff I’m doing now – but it was interesting to see how much time was spent on how little airtime, compared to knocking out a show a day on the soaps.
I honestly think if I had been a solo artist, it wouldn’t have been as bad. Because I was being compared to three other girls, it made people have more of an opinion. If I had been on my own, there would be no one to compare to.
It’s a great honor even to be compared to such amazing artists as 2NE1.
I really do like the independent way of working. You don’t get much studio intrusion compared to when you’re working on a big Hollywood film where there tends to always be loads of people interfering. The only problem, though, with independent features is that they are hard to sell.
Being compared to Ian Thorpe, that could be one of the greatest compliments you could ever get in swimming – being compared to him and Mark Spitz.
