For me, I think one of the biggest battles is mentally. You have good days, and you have bad days. Randomly, you’ll feel good for weeks, and then all of a sudden, you’ll have a bad day where you’re really sore. And you end up questioning yourself, like, ‘Am I doing the right thing? Why is this so hard?’
I like Hollywood. I just like Minneapolis a little bit better.
Life’s like a movie, write your own ending. Keep believing, keep pretending.
Most people don’t like change. They revolt against it unless they can clearly see the advantage it brings. For that reason, when good leaders prepare to take action or make changes, they take people through a process to get them ready for it.
Charity bestowed upon those who are worthy of it is like good seed sown on a good soil that yields an abundance of fruits. But alms given to those who are yet under the tyrannical yoke of the passions are like seed deposited in a bad soil. The passions of the receiver of the alms choke, as it were, the growth of merits.
You cannot be lonely if you like the person you’re alone with.
Nations, like stars, are entitled to eclipse. All is well, provided the light returns and the eclipse does not become endless night. Dawn and resurrection are synonymous. The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.

I don’t like to give advice. I like to give people information because everyone’s life is different, and everyone’s journey is different.
In our business, things look like a failure until they’re not. It’s pretty binary transitions.
I am a simple man who comes from a village, and villagers like us speak our mind. Now, in the process, if unknowingly my words came across as disrespectful or insulting, then I am deeply sorry. I don’t want to hurt anyone.
Landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed.
When you spend a lot of time, like I do, just standing around and waiting, or being moved from place to place, every minute gets consumed by something someone else has set up for you. And it’s not like I’m always in a beautiful place wearing something gorgeous.
I like to play blackjack. I’m not addicted to gambling. I’m addicted to sitting in a semi-circle.
The game of life is a lot like football. You have to tackle your problems, block your fears, and score your points when you get the opportunity.

We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
I never feel lonely if I’ve got a book – they’re like old friends. Even if you’re not reading them over and over again, you know they are there. And they’re part of your history. They sort of tell a story about your journey through life.
I like to be myself, and I don’t pretend. For instance, I don’t dress up for occasions; I am what I am.
The Church is not an automobile showroom – a place to put ourselves on display so that others can admire our spirituality, capacity, or prosperity. It is more like a service center, where vehicles in need of repair come for maintenance and rehabilitation.
With artificial intelligence, we are summoning the demon. You know all those stories where there’s the guy with the pentagram and the holy water, and he’s like, yeah, he’s sure he can control the demon? Doesn’t work out.
Life is like a piano. What you get out of it depends on how you play it.
No excuses. Play like a champion.
If you like gold, there are many reasons you should like Bitcoin.
I don’t trip on that much. I just like to enjoy life and be happy.
Mark Wahlberg, when I was in high school, people were like, ‘You look like Marky Mark!’ Then as I got older, they were like, ‘You look like Donnie Wahlberg.’ Now they’re like, ‘You look like Donnie Wahlberg’s cousin from Massachusetts.’
Wine and cheese are ageless companions, like aspirin and aches, or June and moon, or good people and noble ventures.
I always feel like it’s two key ingredients when it comes to following your dreams, making something happen that the average person deems difficult. If you truly believe it, that’s step one. Step two, is, you know, the hard work that goes along with it.
Politics is like football; if you see daylight, go through the hole.
I’m low-key. I like my privacy.
Propaganda is a soft weapon; hold it in your hands too long, and it will move about like a snake, and strike the other way.
It’s not like after winning an award, your job is done and you can relax. You still have to work hard.
Rebellion without truth is like spring in a bleak, arid desert.
I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death!
Just keep going like crazy and look back when it’s over. Otherwise you just get confused.
There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort.
By shifting your focus to the princess and treating your life’s challenges like video games, you can trick your brain and actually learn more and see more success.
I like the danger, I like the adrenaline and I need it to race.
It’s like deja-vu, all over again.
Life is too short to be scared and not take risks. I’d rather be the person that’s like, ‘I messed up,’ than, ‘I wish I did that.’
Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
The brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good. Understanding is joyous.
Life without liberty is like a body without spirit.
I made odd noises as a child. Just did weird things, like turn off light switches twice. I think my parents thought I had Tourette’s syndrome.
Confession of errors is like a broom which sweeps away the dirt and leaves the surface brighter and clearer. I feel stronger for confession.
I like being like a chameleon who transforms himself with each role.
It’s like everything in football – and life. You need to look, you need to think, you need to move, you need to find space, you need to help others. It’s very simple in the end.
In awe, I watched the waxing moon ride across the zenith of the heavens like an ambered chariot towards the ebony void of infinite space wherein the tethered belts of Jupiter and Mars hang, for ever festooned in their orbital majesty. And as I looked at all this I thought… I must put a roof on this toilet.
Learning lessons is a little like reaching maturity. You’re not suddenly more happy, wealthy, or powerful, but you understand the world around you better, and you’re at peace with yourself. Learning life’s lessons is not about making your life perfect, but about seeing life as it was meant to be.
A great tailor is like a great personal trainer – they tailor that suit to your natural physique.
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
Don’t ever try and be like anybody else and don’t be afraid to take risks.
I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family – and I don’t think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.
I admit, I don’t look like the athlete of the day’s supposed to look. My belly’s just a little big, my heinie’s just a little big, but, brother, I am bad, and they know I’m bad.
Be like a postage stamp. Stick to one thing until you get there.
The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest minds of past centuries.
I do believe in God. But you won’t find me visiting temples every now and then. I believe in self-realization. Peace of mind matters a lot to me. What’s the point in doing something just for the sake of it? I’d rather do something I like doing as long as I’m being true to myself.
The men I idolized built their bodies and became somebody – like Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger – and I thought, ‘That can be me.’ So I started working out. The funny thing is I didn’t realize back then that I was having a defining moment.
Procrastination is like a credit card: it’s a lot of fun until you get the bill.
Nothing succeeds like success. Get a little success, and then just get a little more.
Being transgender, like being gay, tall, short, white, black, male, or female, is another part of the human condition that makes each individual unique, and something over which we have no control. We are who we are in the deepest recesses of our minds, hearts and identities.
Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.
I like Aurora, ‘Sleeping Beauty,’ because she’s just sleeping and looking pretty and waiting for boys to come kiss her. Sounds like a good life – lots of naps and cute boys fighting dragons to come kiss you.
