I’ve always been a caretaker; I think a lot of women are. We take care of everybody else first, and very rarely do we think about ourselves.
Truth, when not sought after, rarely comes to light.
Peace is rarely denied to the peaceful.
Actors rarely stay in touch with directors after they’ve filmed together. We go back to real life.
The SEALs rarely call the Taliban ‘terrorists’ because they respect them as worthy opponents.
Very rarely am I attracted to characters that are ‘woe is me.’ I’m not a big fan of women that have to be the victim and need to be saved, at all times. I don’t necessarily think that’s how it is, in real life, and I don’t think that’s how it should be in films.
Gifted women musicians and composers rarely received their due.
People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.
Executives are rarely comfortable speaking on the record, particularly in secretive Silicon Valley companies.
I’m a New Yorker, and I rarely get to work at home.
Where I grew up, the basketball courts were rarely used.
The lessons taught in great books are misleading. The commerce in life is rarely so simple and never so just.
For so long, the fashion industry has designed almost exclusively for a particular woman with particular measurements, and they’ve never really been challenged on it. We’re all consumers, yet we’re rarely given a voice within this industry that dictates what we wear.
My life isn’t just one genre. It’s a romance one minute, an action movie the next – it’s actually rarely, rarely an action film, to be frank.
It’s just people should realize that the celebrity aspect of being an actor is very rarely enjoyable for people like me who would always rather go unnoticed and disappear into the crowd.
The chemist, whose science is immediately concerned with the combinations of atoms, has rarely found it necessary to discuss their shapes, and gives them no particular forms in his diagrams. That does not mean that the shapes are unimportant, but rather that the older methods could not define them.
Food is not just what we put in our mouths to fill up; it is culture and identity. Reason plays some role in our decisions about food, but it’s rarely driving the car.
I find that I don’t lie about the big things in life. The things that matter. And about me. While I’m talking about myself, I rarely lie: I know who I am, my level of talent, that I’m not the most versatile filmmaker, the person I am. I don’t lie about myself because I don’t lie to myself.
Careers very rarely are a waste of time; jobs usually are.
