Dying is only one thing to be sad over… Living unhappily is something else.
I do know one thing about me: I don’t measure myself by others’ expectations or let others define my worth.
That’s one thing that’s a passion for me: teaching.
One thing that people keep on saying to me is that the wealth and the fame must have made up for missing out on my childhood. But the idea of money – putting a price on your childhood – is ridiculous. You will never get those years back and you can’t put a price on them.
The one thing about internet language, people join it, and what quickly evolves is an ‘internet dialect,’ as it were.
Even on casual days, wear at least one thing that makes you happy.
One thing my dad’s always told me about leadership is when all hell’s breaking loose, everyone’s looking at you to see how you’re handling it. If you’re frantic and out of control, they’re going to be frantic and out of control. If you’re calm, cool and collected and doing the right things, they’ll follow you.
Freeing yourself was one thing; claiming ownership of that freed self was another.
If there’s one thing I’ve shown, I’m not scared of physicality. I’m not scared to take some of my own blood. I play hurt; I play injured.
There are many reasons why novelists write, but they all have one thing in common – a need to create an alternative world.
One thing I love about guards in this league is that you can be a 5-foot-9 pit bull or a methodical 6-foot-7 jump-shooter, and still succeed in your own way.
I think one thing is that prayer has become more useful, interesting, fruitful, and… almost involuntary in my life.
My goal is to defend our goal, save shots and not concede goals. But one thing that could happen is to score a goal from my penalty box to the other box directly.
Of one thing I am certain, the body is not the measure of healing, peace is the measure.
I am a chameleon when it comes the way I dress. I am constantly changing it up, and I really can’t commit to one thing because dressing for the day or for an event is really a mood thing. I like variety, and I don’t mean just designers, I mean mixing the high-end garments and the cheaper clothing.
To be womanly is one thing, and one only; it is to be sensitive to man, to be highly endowed with the sex instinct; to be manly is to be sensitive to woman.
In dealing with Englishmen you can be sure of one thing only, that the logical solution will not be adopted.
One thing I love to do is produce. I’ve produced a couple of bands. I mean, nothing ever really happened with ’em, but I enjoy getting a young band into the studio and guiding them, and making them feel at ease.
One of the things you learn in football is that you’re only as good as your last outing. I don’t like to reflect on what we’ve done in the past. I’m not a very good storyteller, for one thing. I’d disappoint you. When it’s time, I’ll talk about the good old days. But it’s a sign of old age, reveling in the past.
Scholarship was one thing, drudgery another. I very soon concluded that nothing would induce me to read, let alone make notes on, hundreds and hundreds of very, very, very boring books.
My one thing is respect. I don’t care about anything else. You should respect everyone around you – the people who work for you, peers. Be classy.
I mean, first, almost all writers these days teach because they don’t make enough money publishing to live on, to support themselves – people like Tobias Wolff, Anne Beattie, Amy Hempel, Stuart Dybek; a lot of short story writers, for one thing.
One thing is certain in business. You and everyone around you will make mistakes.
The one thing we learned about community – you can’t force community.
Time really has gone by fast. I don’t know if your path is pre-written or what, but it’s crazy how one thing just leads to another.
The fake news and the lying doesn’t surprise me anymore. The one thing we know he is consistent about, Trump, is lying.
We live in an ascending scale when we live happily, one thing leading to another in an endless series.
What I really like about ‘Grit’ – especially being the guy who goes on TV every week and says ‘Never Give Up’ and who truly tries to live his life to that credo – we recruited 16 people who said, ‘I will never give up.’ And the only way they can leave the contest is by doing the one thing they said they never would.
With my kids, they’re told 75 times a day that they’re loved. One thing I know is they feel loved and secure and happy and needed and necessary and a part of something.
I only live in my music, and I have scarcely begun one thing when I start on another. As I am now working, I am often engaged on three or four things at the same time.
To have a broad range is one thing, but to still have the Simple Minds identity is quite remarkable.
One thing I like about Argentina, they only cook with salt; that’s it.
I must be very clear in one thing… Being a pageant girl is not who I am or what defines me.
Power is given only to those who dare to lower themselves and pick it up. Only one thing matters, one thing; to be able to dare!
I don’t know whether I am mentally tough or not, but one thing I know is that I like the game and spend as much time as possible on it.
I’m a person of whim, and easily distracted. I don’t like multitasking. When I’m doing one thing, I like to do just that thing.
As a busker, one thing that does not work is self-consciousness. A busker needs to be working. A busker needs to shed all ego and get down to work. Play your songs, play them well, earn your money, and don’t get in people’s way.
If there is one thing I have learnt, it’s that you have to be honest.
The one thing that can solve most of our problems is dancing.
If there is one thing I am, it’s always right.
The shortest way to do many things is to do only one thing at once.
It is one thing to praise discipline, and another to submit to it.
One thing about being successful is that I stopped being afraid of dying. Once you’re a star you’re dead already. You’re embalmed.
The comic book world is so dangerous, you know what I mean? You say one thing and people – they’re ravenous – they are very opinionated fans. But they’re great fans.
As a black woman trying different products and figuring out what works best for me, the one thing that I realized is that hair brands lump us together as having ‘black hair,’ but all black hair is not alike.
To make a documentary is one thing, to make a feature film is quite another.
That’s one thing I like to do before going in for a read – doing research once I actually have been granted the role – is to look up people’s names.
I can understand a bad pass or something like that; I don’t get irate. But the one thing I can never accept is a lack of work rate. You have to be able to give everything you have.
The one thing I didn’t do that was kind of controversial was go work for a daily paper, because I didn’t like that kind of journalism, and I’m glad I didn’t because that’s the business model that’s going totally extinct.
America had, for one thing, lived in anarchy for – until much more recently than Europe. We had the Wild West, where the cliche of the cowboy movies was the nearest sheriff is 90 miles away, and so you had to pack a gun and defend yourself.
If there’s one thing I’m good at, it’s gathering people together to do something fun.
Nixon had some large achievements in foreign affairs. They will be remembered. But a president probably gets remembered for one thing, and Watergate will head the Nixon list, I suspect.
The one thing I have discovered is that we all have challenges; the challenges vary, but our response to the challenges makes us people we are.
Keep everything in context, and try to have each line doing more than one thing – not just giving exposition but also revealing character and history, etc.
We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art.
If there is any one thing that will bring peace and contentment into the human heart, and into the family, it is to live within our means.
I can tell you one thing, Iran is closer to developing nuclear weapons today than it was a week ago, or a month ago or a year ago. It’s just moving on with its efforts.
This conflict is one thing I’ve been waiting for. I’m well and strong and young – young enough to go to the front. If I can’t be a soldier, I’ll help soldiers.
What was the most important thing I learned from Chomsky? That capitalism compels us to work ourselves to death in order to stuff our houses with things we don’t need. Perhaps this is one thing art can do: create a new aesthetic, one of austerity.
If one is master of one thing and understands one thing well, one has at the same time, insight into and understanding of many things.
Living up to people’s expectations is one thing but it was even harder to live up to my own expectations.
One thing I always tell players is that there are three bad things: Nothing good happens after midnight, nothing good happens when you’re around guns unless you’re going hunting, and you don’t want to mess around with women that you don’t know because a lot of times, bad things happen.
