The backwoodsmen are muttering about making Britain’s draconian union laws – already among the toughest in Europe – harsher still. And parts of the media will continue to attack public service pensions, as if school meals staff, refuse collectors and healthcare workers have no right to a decent retirement.
It’s becoming plainer and plainer that what is going on in South America and in South-Eastern Asia is directly related to the war in Russia, for they are all parts of one single Great World War.
We can halt the destruction of the world’s rainforests – and even restore parts of them – in order to ensure that the forests do what they are so good at – in other words, storing carbon naturally.
Behind that picture of me, thousands and thousands of people, they suffered – more than me. They died. They lost parts of their bodies. Their whole lives were destroyed, and nobody took that picture.
When you go and meet people in far-flung parts of the world who need help, they’re not earnest; they’re having a laugh and a joke as they transport the water you’re buying for them – not trudging around saying serious things.
I’ve actually thought very little about solo work up until just very recently. Most of it is because in my band, Incubus, it is very much a collaborative effort. I do what I do in the band, and everyone plays their respective parts, but in the end, we are sort of a democratic process.
When I said the city would be stronger, I didn’t know that. I just hoped it. There are parts of you that say, ‘Maybe we’re not going to get through this.’ You don’t listen to them.
Maybe I’ll learn how, but the only thing I can do is turn down parts that would hurt my conscience.
As an actor, the second and last ones were interesting for me. Because those parts had the most change in playing someone who was both light and dark, sort of Jekyl and Hyde.
I’d go for parts that didn’t pay a dime, and there would be 300 to 400 actors there. It could be very discouraging. To make it in this business, you have to have a kind of dumb sense that you’re really good. You have to believe that someone is going to recognize that.
In general, questions are fine; you can always seize upon the parts of them that interest you and concentrate on answering those. And one has to remember when answering questions that asking questions isn’t easy either, and for someone who’s quite shy to stand up in an audience to speak takes some courage.
I guess Johnny Depp has a pretty good career. I love a lot of parts that actors have played, so I love pieces of their career, but it’s pretty hard to look at an actor’s whole career and go, ‘That was awesome!’ Usually it either ends on a crappy show or with no work at all.
Mathematical science is in my opinion an indivisible whole, an organism whose vitality is conditioned upon the connection of its parts.
Secretary Rumsfeld used to represent parts of our district in the 1960s. I think that he and his team have done a masterful job in defeating Iraqi forces quickly and decisively.
In many parts of the world, especially Pakistan and Afghanistan, terrorism, war and conflict stop children to go to their schools. We are really tired of these wars. Women and children are suffering.
Socialism and the woman movement are two mighty streams which drag along with them great parts of the firm formations which they touch.
Language is a living thing. We can feel it changing. Parts of it become old: they drop off and are forgotten. New pieces bud out, spread into leaves, and become big branches, proliferating.
Jennifer Aniston and I have always just really gotten along well… I was just fortunate to be a good fit for parts in her films.
It’s the sum of the parts that make up the whole, so in my opinion excellence comes from how one undertakes to do something. It all begins with the thought process – which is creative and exalted to produce something out of the ordinary.
But I’ve lost parts because of my looks. I auditioned to star with Richard Dreyfuss in ‘The Buddy System.’ The producers said no one would believe he would leave me for another woman. They just couldn’t see me with him.
I love to go on tour and perform. I love all the parts of the process.
Growing up I was a total movie-holic, but I always wanted to play the role that Clark Gable was playing or Spencer Tracy was playing. I was really never interested in the parts that women were playing. I found the parts that guys were playing were so much more interesting.
After The Wizard Of Oz I was typecast as a lion, and there aren’t all that many parts for lions.
I never really acted at school. It was doing small parts on TV that really got me started.
And now oddly I’m getting sexier parts than I’ve ever gotten.
Canada will be a strong country when Canadians of all provinces feel at home in all parts of the country, and when they feel that all Canada belongs to them.
In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully.
After the 1954 Geneva international conference, Vietnam was divided into two parts. On paper, North and South Vietnam were twin countries born at the same moment.
I believe I owe all the best parts of my adulthood to embracing my imperfections and showcasing them.
I’ve enjoyed all the parts of my career.
I have felt some twinges recently, about parts I wanted to play that I may be getting too old and fat to do. ‘Hamlet,’ for example – maybe that’s gone. I would love to play Richard II.
Clearly I’m really attracted to parts where there’s a dark, sinister feel about them!
I think the thing that I always try to do – because it piques my interest – is to play really different parts all the time.
To have the opportunity to work with Tiger Woods was just so awesome. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the challenge. I enjoyed the good parts where he was winning. And I enjoyed the challenge to help him get better. But six years was enough.
The Conservative Party is not honouring the commitment to Lords reform and, as a result, part of our contract has now been broken. Clearly I cannot permit a situation where Conservative rebels can pick and choose the parts of the contract they like, while Liberal Democrat MPs are bound to the entire agreement.
In some parts of the world there is very little tidal movement.
The Giraffe took the horse’s head and led him along on the most level parts of the road towards the railway station, and two or three chaps went along to help get the sick man into the train.
I would hope we would begin a series of projects that would do more to bring the different parts of the university together in the study of Asia, for example, in the study of the professions in Asia.
Internally, we have so many different parts, both positive and negative. And if you force them together, a spark comes out.
I want to be the best in life. In all parts in life, not just basketball.
As a species, taking all in all, we are still too young, too juvenile, to be trusted. We have spread across the face of the earth in just a few thousand years, no time at all as evolution clocks time, covering all livable parts of the planet, endangering other forms of life, and now threatening ourselves.
It’s funny. Some people remember that a lot more than I do. I remember certain parts of it, and if everybody who mentioned that to me had been to the game who said they were at the game, there’d be 800,000 people at that game, I think.
As you get older, you’re doing different parts, but the young people, like yourself, they keep you excited, because they’ll see Waterfront, and they’ll want to talk about it.
It didn’t matter what you look like. You don’t have to get up at 5:30 in the morning and there’s a lot to be said for that. Corpse Bride can just play all my parts from now on and I’ll just do the voice.
I now want to be playing parts more interesting to me and more exciting to me.
I had a niche. And my niche was that I was brown. So it’s like, ‘Great, I get to go up for all these ‘brown parts.” I call them ‘brown parts’ because that’s what they are. That’s not to be resentful, because I loved playing those parts – I got to meet so many cool actors.
Remember: there are no small parts, only small actors.
Once a disease has entered the body, all parts which are healthy must fight it: not one alone, but all. Because a disease might mean their common death. Nature knows this; and Nature attacks the disease with whatever help she can muster.
As a print journalist, you can be frustrated by people who don’t call you back, parts of the story you can’t get. TV gets you access to everyone because people call you back. It also allows you to satisfy your curiosity. I am a very curious person.
The Six Million Dollar Man was one thing, but I wanted to keep my own parts.
There are books of which the backs and covers are by far the best parts.
We cannot afford to walk down that dangerous path of government overstepping its boundaries into the most personal parts of our lives.
Things went in a direction that I didn’t want to go. I started doing bit parts and things that are pretty much laid out for people in my position. The parts were pretty generic.
Actors, lots of times, are great when they have great parts. For me, a lot of times, it’s been the part.
