I sometimes worry that maybe it’s better to be really good at one thing than be okay at a couple things.
Multitasking? I can’t even do two things at once. I can’t even do one thing at once.
I am dominated by one thing, an irresistible, burning attraction towards the abstract.
The image is one thing and the human being is another. It’s very hard to live up to an image, put it that way.
Kids are soft these days, period, end of the story in every respect. People coddle them too much. I’m sick of that; it’s irresponsible parenting. Taking care of them is one thing, but turning little boys into little girls because you’re coddling them so much, kids need to have experiences on their own.
The one thing we can do is invest in the quality of education, especially higher education.
Some girls like to say one thing and mean another. And me being who I am, I’m very straightforward. Everything is very black and white for me. I don’t really like playing mind games.
If military movies were automatically successful we’d make nothing but military movies. But seriously, patriotism is one thing that all Americans have in common.
I do not expect the Union to be dissolved – I do not expect the house to fall – but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.
Much speech is one thing, well-timed speech is another.
I’m married now, so I have a life. I had to get a life. That’s one thing I really had to do, you know. You do that kind of work on television series after television series and you don’t have a life. So, that’s part of what I did while I was gone, I got a life.
I’ll keep going. That’s one thing about myself – I’ll roll my sleeves up and keep going.
I suppose that if I could only do one thing, a solid card effect would be pretty high on the list. That’s the root of it all, sleight-of-hand. It’s certainly the thing I feel most comfortable with.
One thing about a skater: they never quit. So a skater, to sum it up, is awesome.
The arts are the one thing that appeal right across all forms of politics, race, creed – everything.
As a shooter, the one thing you want to be is consistent.
One thing I could tell you is that I’m all over the place.
My mom and grandma, growing up, one thing they emphasized was that you need to make sure that anything you put on your skin is also digestible by the body. For example, if something isn’t safe for me to eat or consume, it’s probably not good for your face. So I do a lot of natural remedies.
I’ll tell you one thing: Don’t ever give anybody your best advice, because they’re not going to follow it.
Everyone is of course free to interpret the work in his own way. I think seeing a picture is one thing and interpreting it is another.

If there is ever one thing you learn as a professional footballer, you have a lot of critics and you have the chance to silence your critics.
Be like a postage stamp. Stick to one thing until you get there.
Counter-pressing is a very important topic. Putting pressure onto opponents almost every single minute so we can win the ball… but that is only one thing; we need to find a good balance between ball possession and attacking moments.
One thing I’ve learned over these last 30 or 40 years is that people make history. There’s no fait accompli to any of this.
An intellectual is a person who’s found one thing that’s more interesting than sex.
One thing a narcissist doesn’t like is to look in a mirror that is in any way genuinely reflective of what’s on the other side of it.
The Champions League is the one thing missing from my career. When I look at the history of the competition and the people that have taken part, the top, top players have all won it. For many, it is why they have been regarded as top players.
The blockchain does one thing: It replaces third-party trust with mathematical proof that something happened.
That’s one thing I need to work on, my flexibility. I’m not mobile enough, am I.
There is only one thing I want. I would like to be seriously ill, and to hear nothing more about him for at least a week. Why doesn’t something happen to me? Why do I have to go through all this? If only I had never set eyes on him!
I’ve always felt like a little bit of an underdog at each level – never the tallest or strongest or even fastest. But one thing I’ve always tried to do was to play harder than anyone on the court.
There’s only one thing that everyone in this world has in common: whether you want to love somebody and you want to be loved in return.
One thing about championship teams is that they’re resilient. No matter what is thrown at them, no matter how deep the hole, they find a way to bounce back and overcome adversity.
The one thing I regret is that I will never have time to read all the books I want to read.
I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It’s just that the translations have gone wrong.
I will concede to you one thing – ‘Hustler’ is offensive, even to the point of being iconoclastic. That’s our purpose – to be offensive.
I have learnt one thing in life: that if you love someone, you have to accept that person with his/her flaws.
I only hope that we don’t lose sight of one thing – that it was all started by a mouse.
I never fantasized or invented a thing, not one thing. I knew every single thing I ever wrote about.
I’d been invited to deliver the commencement address to the Class of 2017 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Speaking live on television is one thing… speaking to 30,000 people in a football stadium is another.
I was in love with a beautiful blonde once. She drove me to drink. That’s the one thing I’m indebted to her for.
Tintinnabulation is an area I sometimes wander into when I am searching for answers – in my life, my music, my work. In my dark hours, I have the certain feeling that everything outside this one thing has no meaning.
I have never felt that the one thing that I am ‘known for’ is what I am.
Our frustration is greater when we have much and want more than when we have nothing and want some. We are less dissatisfied when we lack many things than when we seem to lack but one thing.
Age, style, where you come from, where you were born, it’s different every time, which, to me, is refreshing because it says that there isn’t any one thing, one formula or kind of character that makes a great comedian. Everybody has had a different approach.
One thing about being a celebrity that I learned a long time ago was that I pretty much gave up the right to fair treatment.
I always have sort of been someone who has contradictory parts, and I haven’t tried to uncomplicate myself. I’ve sort of let things seem contradictory, and sometimes it really confuses people. I don’t know if it’s working all the time, but I’d rather do that than try to sell myself as one thing or another.
I’ve made a career over the last seventeen years of mostly playing men in uniform, especially cops. The one thing for an actor that is death, is if you’re bored. The boredom will show in your work.
One thing I have learned in my painful career as a gambler is that bragging when you get lucky and win a few games will plunge you into gloom and unacceptable beatings very soon. It happens every time.
Sometimes we let life guide us, and other times we take life by the horns. But one thing is for sure: no matter how organized we are, or how well we plan, we can always expect the unexpected.
Every Englishman is convinced of one thing, viz.: That to be an Englishman is to belong to the most exclusive club there is.
Let us be absolutely clear about one thing: we must not confuse humility with false modesty or servility.
An intellectual is a person who’s found one thing that’s more interesting than sex.
I’m fond of science fiction. But not all science fiction. I like science fiction where there’s a scientific lesson, for example – when the science fiction book changes one thing but leaves the rest of science intact and explores the consequences of that. That’s actually very valuable.
God only made one thing in this world that’s perfect – and that’s my boxing record.
The power of mathematics is often to change one thing into another, to change geometry into language.
The one thing that can solve most of our problems is dancing.
We’ve got to keep an eye on the battle that we face – a war on workers. And you see it everywhere. It is the Tea Party. And there’s only one way to beat and win that war – the one thing about working people is, we like a good fight.
My one thing is I continue to be interested and want to be a student. I don’t want to be a master. When I’m learning something, I’m in my element.
The one thing we can never get enough of is love. And the one thing we never give enough is love.
Men are superior to women, for one thing they can urinate from a speeding car.
But the one thing I’ll always know is that people don’t know what they want until they get it. They didn’t know they wanted a song about taking a horse to the old town road in 2019. But they did.
