The only thing that will keep an abortion worker in the industry longer is a pro-lifer who condemns them.
If you had told me in 1997 that even 5 people would be waiting online for me to sign my new book in 2009, I would have jumped around like Joe Carter in the 1993 World Series. I love it. I can’t imagine why anyone wouldn’t like it. The only thing I worry about is carpal tunnel syndrome – my last tour almost caused it.
Singing Flower of Scotland was the only thing that made me nervous.I don’t get nervous doing my own shows.
I definitely am afraid of needles. It’s the only thing that actually scares me.
The only thing that makes a book YA is that it is about teenagers, and it is written in a very conventional, non-artsy, non-pretentious way. YA is not the place for the oblique or the cryptic. If it is in any way experimental in form, it is not YA.
I’m sure not afraid of success and I’ve learned not to be afraid of failure. The only thing I’m afraid of now is of being someone I don’t like much.
The only thing I miss from the sitcom format is that immediate gratification of when you’re, if we’re talking about comedy, of the live audience.
The only thing I can do is act, but it’s not something I even feel comfortable doing. It costs me a lot, because I’m a shy person, even if I don’t look it.

Motherhood is the only thing in my life that I’ve really known for sure is something I wanted to do.
The only thing I can say about having this type of success is that you can get yourself in trouble because basically the world is set open for you. People will say yes to anything you ask, so it’s basically down to you and what you want or need.

In my estimation, the only thing that is more to be guarded against than bad taste is good taste.
My father died. It is still a deep regret to me this day that in choosing acting as my career I was forced to hurt him. He died too early to see I had done the right, the only thing.
The only thing that I’m not willing to do is really stupid, horribly written sitcoms. It can be tempting during pilot season time, but I realized this a while ago when I almost signed my life away to a stupid pilot.
You put funny people in funny costumes and paint them green and we could talk about anything we wanted to, because that was the only thing that fascinated Gene about this particular genre.
I didn’t watch much TV as a kid and I don’ t watch it now. I don’ t find anything beautiful or unique to the medium, and the only thing you can do on TV that you can’t do in film is make a continuing story – which is so cool!
The only thing simple about the past is that it’s not now.
Preparing and cooking squid is easier than most fish. The only thing to remember is not to cook it for too long.

There’s nothing to be scared of. We’re playing basketball. The only thing that could happen is you failing. But as long as you’re going hard, there’s nothing to be scared of for me. I don’t know what there is to be scared of.
The only thing I can do is type. I learned that when I was 13.
Wanting something – wanting a career or wanting to make something – doesn’t really mean much. It’s about finding something you care about. Because caring is the only thing that really matters.
The only thing I can give to young gay people is that when I was growing up, there were no role models that were blokey that were men. Everybody was flamboyant and camp, and I remember going, ‘That’s not me, so even though I think I am gay, I don’t think I fit into this world.’
That’s the only thing that got me here is my teammates. My teammates and my coach. That’s the only reason I’m here.

Good nature is the cheapest commodity in the world, and love is the only thing that will pay ten percent, to borrower and lender both.

Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don’t feel I should be doing something else.
If black people use their resources properly, they can become as competitive as any group in society – take control of our neighborhoods, our businesses, our schools, including our teachers. The only thing keeping black people from doing it is this idiotic idea about integration, about being racially balanced.
The only thing that I know how to do as an actor, as a trained actor, is you can’t villainize the character you’re playing. Whether it’s a fictional character or a real character. Because then you operate from that sort of negative point of view, and you can’t humanize him.
I was in the game for love. After all, where else can an old-timer with one leg, who can’t hear or see, live like a king while doing the only thing I wanted to do?
I truly believe that music or art, in general, is the only thing that can unify a world that is plagued by war and violence, and I believe that it should be taken to more people.
I eat the way I do because I really enjoy it but also because it’s the only thing I’ve found that helps me manage the illness I had, and that plays a big part in it.
Actors are like Swiss Army knives – we’re ready to use any lever at any moment. But I learned long ago that, unfortunately, this industry only sees the one thing sticking out that they know us from, and that’s the only thing they can imagine.
It’s what I do well – I write about things that make people uncomfortable. That’s probably the only thing I do better than my peers.
Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that’s what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity.

I am no David Beckham. I have not changed my life since I was 15 years old. My family is the only thing that has changed for me.
The only thing I know is the only things that I know. You can’t ask me to talk about something I have no information on. I stay silent. It’d be foolish. So when I talk about something, it’s something I at least have a little bit of familiarity with me.
We study play because life is crap. Life is crap, and it’s full of pain and suffering, and the only thing that makes it worth living – the only thing that makes it possible to get up in the morning and go on living – is play.
The people of Hong Kong are criticized for only being interested in business, but it’s the only thing they’ve been allowed to do.
In the end, the only heritage we have is our planet, and I have decided to go to the most pristine places on the planet and photograph them in the most honest way I know, with my point of view, and of course it is in black and white, because it is the only thing I know how to do.
The only thing about kissing anyone on screen is that forced intimacy is never pleasant. If you don’t want to be kissing someone, it’s hard to get over that barrier, and so there’s a reluctance to be that close to someone.
The proposal is the only thing that the guy has control over in the entire wedding deal. It is your one chance to make this moment stand out, not only for you, but for her.
