Music is very therapeutic and healing, and I hit it from all angles.
If I do hit that rope and do a hop, skip and a jump and get up as high as I can, I’m just going to hold my breath, because I know i’m going to hear all kinds of scar tissue popping.
I’m very shy, and I shy away from people. But the moment I hit the stage, it’s a different feeling I get nerve from somewhere; maybe it’s because it’s something I love to do.
It’s kind of like those little electric bumper cars where you drive around and see if you can hit the other guy. That’s exactly what the country is like now. You no longer have the sense of community. Of loyalty. It’s lost its sense of group. It has nothing to do with leadership.
I had been afraid of breast cancer, as I suspect most women are, from the time I hit adolescence. At that age, when our emerging sexuality is our central preoccupation, the idea of disfigurement of a breast is particularly horrifying.

Listening is more important than talking. Just hit your mark and believe what you say. Just listen to people and react to what they are saying.
The problem with independent films is that they can be hit or miss. I’ve seen scripts that have blown me away. But there have to be all the right ingredients in place to make them work: the director, cast, publicity, distribution.
The reason we wouldn’t make a seven-inch tablet isn’t because we don’t want to hit a price point, it’s because we don’t think you can make a great tablet with a seven-inch screen.
You automatically are trusting because not only is the person a friend, they are so incredibly gifted that you know someone is going to be able to hit the ball back to you across the net.
New York sounds like something that I could really listen to. It’s like a vibe; it’s a hit song. It’s a song that you could listen to in five years and still like.
I don’t want to play golf. When I hit a ball, I want someone else to go chase it.
I think that every child grows up with the ideas that what we are given, is our society. Your education, and your mother and father, they tell you this is how it is, but then you hit adolescence and you think, ‘Is it? Why? Why is it like that?’ Sometimes that questioning leads to something more.
Only bad golfers are lucky. They’re the ones bouncing balls off trees, curbs, turtles and cars. Good golfers have bad luck. When you hit the ball straight, a funny bounce is bound to be unlucky.

I think every part of your game, on this golf course, needs to be good. You’ve got to hit every club in the bag. You need to drive it well, hit your irons well, and always, if you want to have a chance to win a Major, then you’ve got to putt it well.
If people are a little nervous about approaching you at the market, it’s good. I’m not Chuckles The Clown. Or Bozo. I don’t cut the ribbon at the opening of markets. I don’t stand next to the mayor. Hit your baseball into my yard, and you’ll never see it again.
It doesn’t matter where I hit.
When I hit the scene, there was Billy Connolly and Max Boyce. It was all mother-in-law and Irish jokes, and we broke the mould. Now there are thousands of comedians out there, and I don’t think I can be above it all.
Both the ‘Gregor’ series and ‘The Hunger Games’ are what I call lightning-bolt ideas. There was a moment where the idea came to me. With ‘The Hunger Games,’ the lightning bolt sort of hit at a moment when I was channel surfing between reality TV and the coverage of the Iraq war.
On the practice green, I hit a lot of four-footers with my right hand only. But whatever grip I’m using, you can bet I’m feeling good about it. Otherwise, I’d change. That’s how I avoid slumps.
I’d like to believe that ‘The Apprentice’ was a big hit because I was such a superstar in the first season.
I got the type of voice where I can hit a tone if I want, but I ain’t trying to be Fetty Wap or Future.
All I can tell them is pick a good one and sock it. I get back to the dugout and they ask me what it was I hit and I tell them I don’t know except it looked good.
My theory of hitting was just to watch the ball as it came in and hit it.
You’re only as big as your last hit.
Every shot feels like the first shot of the day. If I’m on the range hitting shot after shot, I can hit them just as good as I did when I was 30. But out on the course, your body changes between shots. You get out of the cart, and you’ve got this 170-yard 5-iron over a bunker, and it goes about 138.
I’m 10-12 years into life as an out gay man, and I’m a different person. I think there are things about my journey that might be useful to other people, and coming up with a hit record on its own doesn’t seem to be enough anymore.
I wouldn’t say pop stars hit on me – that’s just stuff the papers make up.
When I was a kid, I used to try and hit every ball out of the ground. After playing one-day cricket and Test cricket, I never thought I’d get a chance to play like that again, ever. Twenty20 has given me the opportunity of playing like a kid again. I can just feel free and go out there and hit.
I don’t love the world. I think Jupiter should have hit us.
You got to be able to hit mid-range shots, you got to able to hit threes and you got to be able to finish in the lane.
I’d met a woman and I got married, but the money ran out right away. I hadn’t had a job for seven months, and it just came over me that I was never going to work again. It hit me.
They’re hit writers. They’re gonna write me a hit whether I wanted it or not you know? I could have put out a single a year ago with the Neptunes and maybe been writing now on top but that was not the path that I chose.
When I do shows, I take pictures and make the fans feel like family. All of that really matters. That’s the cheat code if you ain’t got a hit.
I was very comfortable having a steady job on a hit show, and who knew if ‘The Jeffersons’ would catch on?

Of course, in pro ball, they never hit the quarterback in practice.
Well, of course a boxing match is hard because boxing isn’t set for you to do good. You have to force your will upon someone, but dancing you don’t have to force your will. It should be a lot easier because if I make a mistake I don’t get hit.
I despise the Lottery. There’s less chance of you becoming a millionaire than there is of getting hit on the head by a passing asteroid.
Any pitcher who throws at a batter and deliberately tries to hit him is a communist.
The second Hughes fight was a huge reality check. But it didn’t hit me right away.
I guess I hit a point while I was in college when I realized I would have to do something with my life!
Sometimes you need to get hit in the head to realize that you’re in a fight.
If the Earth gets hit by an asteroid, it’s game over. It’s control-alt-delete for civilization.

He hit me 18 times while I was in the act of falling.
I still when I wake up hit the ground running; and having an illness, I’m only one of hundreds of thousands of people that live with an illness, and I’m just in awe of the bravery and dignity of the people I see at the hospital.
For awhile there, I kind of hit the plateau. Anytime you do that as an artist, one of two things can happen… you’re either going to start to fall back off, or you’re gonna start to rise.
I was not prepared for fame. It hit me hard, and I did not have the capacity to cope.
American Jews are behind the world economic crisis that has hit Greece also.
I’ll dive on loose balls. I’ll get the winning rebound, hit the winning shot. I’ll do whatever it takes to win a game.
Once acting hit me, once that bug hit me, I just… took the jump and dove right in.
For Scary Movie 2, we had a due date and had to work fast. And though there’s a lot of pressure, as artists, we just block it out. So really, the pressure comes from us. That’s how the first movie happened. There was no outside pressure: we wanted to hit the audience hard.
I like doing them and they’re ridiculous and the actors can improvise a lot, and they don’t have to be really realistic characters that hit a very specific tone as in a feature film. They’re really fun, I want to make more of them definitely.
