The last two years, ever since I became a Lok Sabhha member, I’ve been working round the clock. It’s grueling work through the day.
There’s no such thing as holding back. I want to finish as soon as possible. The only time I did it was because he was a friend of mine. It was against Thales Leites. We went until the last round because he’s a friend of mine, and I respect him.
I can’t even count how many times I’ve been pulled over. I can’t count how many times I’ve gone to a club and not got in, how many times a security guard has followed me round a shop. I can’t count how many times that somebody has asked me if I’m a footballer because I’ve come out of a nice car.
Obviously, throwing leg kicks in the first round is not smart, but it’s something that I can really utilize in the later rounds to both score points and look to finish the fight.
Skiing is better than sex actually, because for me a good round of sex might be seven minutes. Skiing you can do for seven hours.
If you make ‘PKP’ from the girl’s point of view, it would have been the other way round. The boys would have been wrong for the girls. That wouldn’t have been misogynistic.
I always wander round thinking I’m anonymous. Maybe in my psyche I would like to be. But then you suddenly realise you’re not.
Being the number one seed, you’re thinking you don’t want to lose in the second round.
When I was young you raced from one end of the street to the other, or round the block.
The most I ever played was 12 or 13 tournaments. Now they’re talking about almost 20, and it’s all year round, playing through the summer as well.
And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if there weren’t any other people living in the world.
For ages, in my lunch hours, I would just go round and choreograph fight scenes. For fun. So now I’m very good at being thrown around. I bounce, in the words of my friends.
Nowadays it is the fashion to emphasize the horrors of the last war. I didn’t find it so horrible. There are just as horrible things happening all round us today, if only we had eyes to see them.
There have been so many majors that got away, starting at Riviera in ’95, taking a three-shot lead into the final round of the PGA and not winning.
We have a really rich and diverse heritage in my family – but I sometimes felt it was a bit of a chain round my neck in the Labour party if truth be told.
Do what you are not supposed to do, like wear white shoes all year round.
If you would have told me when I was a kid that I would be sitting here with an ACC championship and been drafted in the fourth round of the Major League Baseball draft, I would have taken it in a heartbeat.
Jeremy can’t do anything. I’ve never discovered anything he can do. I mean, he can drive a car round a track pretty well, but he wouldn’t be able to light a fire.
Well you know, Woody doesn’t rehearse, as opposed to my own method of directing where I really work with actors around a round table for weeks, examining the values of the material, so his technique is very different.
We didn’t build the modern country to be bike-friendly – our initial round of infrastructure was not designed to think about how to get around if you’re not in a car. So we’ve got to be targeting resources, both nationally and locally, to how people are going to get around in the new world.
In the second round, everyone knows I can keep going.
I used to sit on the Circle Line and go ’round and ’round and write.
In my boyhood, cattle-raising ran almost neck and neck with grain-raising. In my secluded little valley in the Suisun Hills, the rodeo was the most exhilarating spectacle in the round year.
It’s tempting to look back into history with rose-tinted glasses. Most people in the Stone Age didn’t live anywhere near as long as we’re living now. Today we can enjoy a more wide-ranging diet and we have fruit and vegetables available all year round.
I feel like I always win at least a round or two at every tournament. I don’t go out in the first round too often.
I’ve wanted to follow my dad into acting for as long as I can remember. ‘I’ve had a very serious round of dramatic training, and I like action films that take their characters seriously, so I figure I’m making it the best of both worlds if I try to bring some serious acting to a shoot-’em-up picture.
I knew very little or nothing about the Olympics. Having qualified was itself a big achievement for me, and then being there was quite overwhelming. Although I lost in the opening round, but the fact that I fought well was enough for me to take away from Athens.
I don’t like hawking ’round other people’s memories. That wasn’t part of the deal when I was born.
I just think that there are those people that their resolve is strengthened by what it is that’s keeping them down, and there are some people that will buckle under it. You never know which one is which until you get into the eighth or ninth round of the fight.
People are possibly not spelling ‘Leicester’ correctly everywhere round the globe, but they are at least saying it correctly now.
Approval makes the world go round, even if many of us want to transcend our hunger for it.
I’ve had five submissions in the first round. I have 3, 4, 5 knockouts. I’ve had decisions. I’ve had grinding fights.
I don’t want to become a player who spends half his time running round after the breakdown, because that won’t get the best out of me.
A lie can be halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on.
The essence of life is the smile of round female bottoms, under the shadow of cosmic boredom.
I’m trained to button scenes and round things off, and I get rewarded for doing that.
I’ve never really been star struck. I was a little bit taken aback when I was doing a chat show recently and I was sat in the make-up chair chatting to a guy say next to me but I couldn’t look round and see who it was, it was only when I got up I realised it had been Bryan Adams I’d been talking to!
I take the family shopping round. The markets of the world.
I chose the most explosive dress I could find. I put a ton of makeup on and some great round earrings. I looked like Jennifer Jones in Duel in the Sun.
The thing I love about golf is that it’s all on me. I can’t blame another player, the wind, or even blame a bad round on one chunked shot. It’s not subjective at all. Meanwhile, acting is very subjective. I can be the best actor and not get the job.
I don’t do the show business lifestyle, you’ll never see me rolling out of parties with a goody bag in my hand. My night out is a night in, with friends round for dinner.
I wish I had a million in the bank. I like round figures. I am a round figure.
I’ll never go round slagging Arsenal off, because I’ve had 13 fantastic years there.
We are not going to round up and deport 12 million people, but we’re not going to hand out citizenship cards, either. There will be a process. We will see what the American people are willing to support. But it will not be unconstitutional executive orders like the ones Barack Obama has forced on us.
If there is a course that is quant-oriented, you need to focus on that, but if it is a course that is more general management-oriented, do you not need entrance examinations which are more all round?
They say behind every great man is a great woman, but I think it works the other way round as well.
I am very harsh on myself. I can point out a list. My nose is very strange. I have a very round face. I sound so ungrateful. Obviously I’m being hard on myself. Whether it’s body dysmorphia, or whatever it is, I can always find something wrong.
I competed in a test round of ‘Kitchen Casino.’ I feel like it’s good to know what the competitors are going through.
There’s never been a southpaw fighter to make it five rounds with me. These are championship fights, and most of them can’t even make it out of the normal rounds. Fought Chael Sonnen, TKOed him in round one. Fought Vitor Belfort. He made it to round four when I ended up submitting him.
My left foot is not the strongest but I can be clever by going round somebody or using the right side of my foot.
As much as technology has made me so much more efficient, enabling me to run a small but global company from where I happen to be, at times it feels like the technology is running me, as opposed to the other way round.
You think you’re in control, and you’re trying to get that square peg in that round hole. You’re frustrated, and you realize that you’re not in control of everything. You need to just step back and let God.
I can say, ‘right, I will stop this kid in round five.’ If I am good enough to do that then fair enough. I don’t gamble but my brothers and my friends, they did quite well off it.
I’m not building my life round not being able to bear the thought of being in my 60s and not having someone next to me when I wake up in the morning. That’s not what drives me.
I can never be anonymous – especially when I walk round looking like this; especially when I take so much trouble not to be anonymous, right?
Today the theory of evolution is about as much open to doubt as the theory that the earth goes round the sun.
