You are always new, the last of your kisses was ever the sweetest.
Everyone has at least one story, and each of us is funny if we admit it. You have to admit you’re the funniest person you’ve ever heard of.
Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever gave myself. I don’t put it on a platform. I don’t campaign about it. It’s just something that works for me. It enabled me to really connect with another human being – my wife, Sheryl – which I was never able to do before.
Mahavishnu’s drummer Billy Cobham was the best I’d ever heard. Not loud, that’s not the secret – powerful as hell when he wanted to be – but 90 per cent of the time, he was just dancing with the drums, you know? Just like a butterfly, all over them.
I think that the idea that I’m writing for many more people than I ever imagined has created a certain general responsibility that is literary and political. There’s even pride involved, in not wanting to fall short of what I did before.
The domesticated chicken is probably the most widespread bird in the annals of planet Earth. If you measure success in terms of numbers, chickens, cows and pigs are the most successful animals ever.
Tzuyu is the purest person I have ever met in all my 24 years. She is also the prettiest person.
Have you ever watched a crab on the shore crawling backward in search of the Atlantic Ocean, and missing? That’s the way the mind of man operates.
No decisions should ever be made without asking the question, is this for the common good?
Nixon was the most dishonest individual I have ever met in my life. He lied to his wife, his family, his friends, his colleagues in the Congress, lifetime members of his own political party, the American people and the world.
No one in this world, so far as I know – and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me – has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people.
I think we risk becoming the best informed society that has ever died of ignorance.
I was taught to confront things you can’t avoid. Death is one of those things. To live in a society where you’re trying not to look at it is stupid because looking at death throws us back into life with more vigour and energy. The fact that flowers don’t last for ever makes them beautiful.
A lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies.
My father taught me not to overthink things, that nothing will ever be perfect, so just keep moving and do your best.
Thomas Jefferson once said, ‘We should never judge a president by his age, only by his works.’ And ever since he told me that, I stopped worrying.
Unlike other Jewish families, we didn’t go out for Chinese food on Sundays, but we spent our time in a world of baking powder biscuits and the best shrimp cocktails that ever were.
Peter Parker is probably the most relatable superhero – maybe ever – because he goes through something that basically everyone has to go through. Whether it’s puberty or talking to girls or doing homework, he does it in such a human way. That’s why he’s such a beloved character: because so many people can relate to him.
Photography was a way for me to freeze time and to capture the moments that were happy and healthy. I saw a photo as a way to go back to a memory if I ever needed to.
Nothing’s ever easy as long as you go on living.
Barcelona is one of the best cities in the world. I love it there. I love Big Sur. It’s stunning and you get a therapeutic experience there. The drive up the coast is one of the most beautiful I’ve ever done. Also, Hong Kong. I could easily live there!
No country has ever closely scrutinized itself visually.
The road to perdition has ever been accompanied by lip service to an ideal.
The only language men ever speak perfectly is the one they learn in babyhood, when no one can teach them anything!
Ever since I made tomorrow my favorite day, I’ve been uncomfortable looking back.
A good government remains the greatest of human blessings and no nation has ever enjoyed it.
No one has ever become poor by giving.
I tell you, ‘Firefly’? Best job I ever had. Heartbroken when it was canceled, but had it not been canceled, I never would have gotten ‘Serenity’. I think ‘Serenity’ is the most incredible thing I’ve ever been able to actually get my hands on and do. I can’t even tell you how much love I have for that project.
Just as the wave cannot exist for itself, but is ever a part of the heaving surface of the ocean, so must I never live my life for itself, but always in the experience which is going on around me.
I’m always making a comeback but nobody ever tells me where I’ve been.
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue, an everlasting vision of the ever changing view.
God forbid that the day should ever come when to be true to my constituents is to be hostile to the Union.
There are evils that have the ability to survive identification and go on for ever… money, for instance, or war.
Why does your mind conform? Have you ever asked? Are you aware that you are conforming to a pattern? It doesn’t matter what that pattern is, whether you have established a pattern for yourself or it has been established for you.
There is one timeless way of building. It is a thousand years old, and the same today as it has ever been. The great traditional buildings of the past, the villages and tents and temples in which man feels at home, have always been made by people who were very close to the center of this way.
If the government ever imposes a tax on books – and I wouldn’t put it past them – I’m in dead trouble.
I have no illusions at all about being a sex symbol. None of my former girlfriends ever thought of me that way, and I don’t have any packs of women chasing me down the street like a Brad Pitt or someone like that.
No one is ever successful at everything that they do.
My mama loved me more than anybody ever did.
Enthusiasm is the mother of effort, and without it nothing great was ever achieved.
Who ever is out of patience is out of possession of their soul.
They always say, ‘Time heals.’ But it really doesn’t. You just get used to it. I live life with the mentality of ‘OK, I lost the only thing that has ever been important to me.’ So going forward, anything bad that happens can’t be nearly as bad as what happened before.
Certainly the plagiarism, and dealing with the fallout of it, was the most difficult thing I’ve ever faced since I started writing.
I’m never bored, never ever bored. If I’ve got a day off I’ll sit in a cafe and watch and observe. I’m a great observer.
I don’t think anyone has ever been corrupted by a T-shirt.
The most expensive thing I’ve ever splashed out on is… a tailor-made suit. It cost £1,400, and it’s the best money I ever spent. It’s a miracle thing – I put it on, and I don’t look overweight.
Music is therapy for me. It’s my outlet for every negative thing I’ve ever been through. It lets me turn something bad into something beautiful.
The greatest compliment I ever got was when people called me an artist, and I understand that solo aspect of being an artist, when you’re in there by yourself, trying to do something great, and people who don’t even know you can come up and just dump on you.
I steal from every movie ever made.
Don’t tell lies, ever. No matter what – not even little white lies.
No, I wouldn’t want the paparazzi ever following me in my life.
Everyone who’s ever taken a shower has an idea. It’s the person who gets out of the shower, dries off and does something about it who makes a difference.
One may as well dam for water tanks the people’s cathedrals and churches, for no holier temple has ever been consecrated by the heart of man.
I am determined and never give up. Ever. I always do my best.
With Mtn Dew Game Fuel, I’m flying off buildings and hitting 360 snipes with more precision than ever.
Love is free; to promise for ever to love the same woman is not less absurd than to promise to believe the same creed; such a vow in both cases excludes us from all inquiry.
Black people comprehend the South. We understand its weight. It has rested on our backs… I knew that my heart would break if ever I put my foot down on that soil, moist, still, with old hurts. I had to face the fear/loathing at its source or it would consume me whole.
Cancer taught my family that my mom is much stronger than we ever thought. Faced with a devastating diagnosis, she just kept going and living – never complaining.
Carry the battle to them. Don’t let them bring it to you. Put them on the defensive and don’t ever apologize for anything.
An author ought to write for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmaster of ever afterwards.
Anything I’ve ever said, I certainly was feeling at the time.
Nobody ever asks a father how he manages to combine marriage and a career.

No one ever discovers the depths of his own loneliness.
The most important thought that ever occupied my mind is that of my individual responsibility to God.
My dad is my support, and he is the best support that I could ever have.
