The focus of my administration is, if somebody decides to work abroad, then it has to be from choice as opposed to necessity.
I’ve always been, like a lot of people, driven by fear. Always focusing on the fire on the rope, as opposed to what the rope is coming from.
I have actively opposed every bailout, every rebate check, every so called ‘stimulus.’
We can divide bitcoin people into two camps: one that goes along with the existing system and wants it to work complimentarily with the existing system, and then the other half is basically religiously opposed and wants to invent a libertarian, regulation-free world.
That was something. As opposed to nothing.
Science has sometimes been said to be opposed to faith, and inconsistent with it. But all science, in fact, rests on a basis of faith, for it assumes the permanence and uniformity of natural laws – a thing which can never be demonstrated.
The thing I love about sketch is sometimes it leads you as opposed to you leading it.
Even if I hadn’t been cast as Doctor Who, my acting would probably have been influenced by William Hartnell or Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, and all of the other guys. Because those were the actors that I really watched every moment of, as opposed to Laurence Olivier.
I’m the person friends come to when they want to find the perfect restaurant or boutique hotel on the outskirts of Paris. As opposed to scouring the Internet for a travel guide, wouldn’t you rather ask the people who are really cool who go there? That’s what I do.
If you’re going to take a jab at someone, you should at least have a bit more of a personal relationship with them. I feel like you can be funny and clever, as opposed to just outright vile.
I always look at it that I work with my employees as opposed to them working for me.
‘Pleasure’ is a word I think about a lot, as opposed to ‘entertainment.’ They are very, very different.
There’s timing in drama. You have to have a sense of rhythm. But the real thing that lends yourself to drama as opposed to comedy is a sense from the audience of whether there’s more to it than you can see.
In the States, this type of jam-band phenomena has opened it up for groups to improvise, admittedly more in the groove area, as opposed to the straight-ahead jazz thing – which is good for me, as that’s one part of where I’m at. It’s been so great playing these gigs and seeing kids come out and the whole college scene.
There’s something very important about films about black women and girls being made by black women. It’s a reflection as opposed to an interpretation.
Influenza is a serious disease. Kids die of influenza, both in Japan and the United States, and if you give a drug to people who are at risk of dying, there will be people who die who got the drug,… There is no signal the drug is doing it as opposed to the disease.
Now, most of the new immigrants coming to this country are from Asia as opposed to Europe.
But I would have executed much greater things, had not government always opposed my exertions, and placed others in situations which would have suited my talents.
There’s always chatter about a ‘Chuck’ movie. So nobody’s opposed to it. It’s just a matter of getting everything lined up.
A lot of the best suspense operates on a careful withholding of information as opposed to the doling out of information.
When you’re in your 30s and actively pursuing a career and a home life, a wife and children, you’re busy doing as opposed to busy thinking. As you get older, even as you don’t have as much time, I think you tend to think more and reflect more on what is happening in your own life.
I’m always theoretically opposed to capital punishment as a matter of policy; like, I don’t believe a state should put its citizens to death.
Hillary Clinton became secretary of state under Barack Obama. It’s hard to convey just how stunningly cynical she has been on Colombia: In 2008, running against Obama, she opposed, in unambiguous terms, a free-trade deal with Colombia.
Well, the coffeehouse audiences never know what they’re going to get, and all the comics are different, as opposed to when you go to a club, and they’re pretty much all telling jokes with set-ups and punchlines. Coffeehouse audiences are the most forgiving: They really listen, which is the best part.
After the Rodgers and Hammerstein revolution, songs became part of the story, as opposed to just entertainments in between comedy scenes.
I love funny people, and when I’m with funny people, or people who are amusing in their weirdness, I love it. Because that to me is funny, as opposed to someone who stops and says, ‘Hey let me tell you a joke.’
I have worked with a great many comedians as opposed to comics, although I have worked with comics as well, I make the distinction.
You just go straight for the reality of the situation. So when I sit down to write, I find myself judging it as I’m doing it, as opposed to letting it free flow.
I opposed the bailout of banks and car companies.
A bubble in early-stage funding means maybe there’s $300 million at work when maybe there should be $150, as opposed to a bubble in late-stage funding which means there’s $20 billion at work when there should be $3.
