Nobody gets argued all the way into becoming a believer on the sheer basis of logic and reason. That requires a leap of faith.
We all have something about ourselves that we’d change if we could in a perfect world, be it our body image, our financial status, our relationship, whatever. I wanted to talk about how nobody’s exempted from the realities of life and all those things.
I showed up in L.A. with $500 and a backpack and I stayed at a shelter, so nobody handed me anything. I worked for every single thing that I have.
As long as you remain true to yourself and continue training with sincerity, nobody can stop you from achieving excellence.
I don’t have beef with nobody.
I can say with confidence there has never been a man or a woman – not me, not Bill, nobody – more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as president of the United States of America.
Nobody is the same. If we were all the same it would be bloody boring.
Nobody, man or woman, has ever wrecked a good marriage.
Holocaust survivors came to Israel in order to establish a new human society where nobody would be able to hurt them just because they’re Jewish. This is both a furious and vulnerable message.
People tell you the world looks a certain way. Parents tell you how to think. Schools tell you how to think. TV. Religion. And then at a certain point, if you’re lucky, you realize you can make up your own mind. Nobody sets the rules but you. You can design your own life.
I grew up in a time when the only musicals were animated musicals because nobody wanted to see people to break into song.
Writing is such a ‘pretend’ profession. Nobody is counting on you at all. You can’t ‘pretend’ to be a lawyer or a teacher. It takes a lot of grit to continue.
You don’t attack the grunts of Vietnam; you blame the theory behind the war. Nobody who fought in that war was at fault. It was the war itself that was at fault. It’s the same thing with psychotherapy.
Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children.
You have to put in many, many, many tiny efforts that nobody sees or appreciates before you achieve anything worthwhile.
Nobody ever built a statue to a committee.
Nobody wants to go through divorce, especially when there’s young children involved.
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.
If you’re not comfortable with public speaking – and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable – practice. I cannot overstate the importance of practicing. Get some close friends or family members to help evaluate you, or somebody at work that you trust.
If I had known how hard it would be to do something new, particularly in the payments industry, I would never have started PayPal. That’s why nobody with long experience in banking had done it. You needed to be naive enough to think that new things could be done.
There’s nothing more frustrating than seeing cynics sit there and say, ‘Well, nobody can make any more money because Microsoft and Intel own everything.’ Is the software industry mature, or is it embryonic? I would say it’s embryonic. There will be a hundred more Microsofts, not just one.
Everybody around the world wants to send their kids to our universities. But nobody wants to send their kids here to public school.
Nobody cares about the bronze or silver medals.
I’m always making a comeback but nobody ever tells me where I’ve been.
It’s one of those things where it’s not something you want to do; nobody wants to retire from basketball. You want to play basketball forever. Retirement is admitting to yourself and everybody else that, ‘I can’t do this job anymore.’ For me, that’s not a celebration.
Many of the genetically modified foods will be safe, I’m sure. Will most of them be safe? Nobody knows.
I had heard some women make comments about my chest, so why not show it off? Nobody wants to see a fat guy in tights. That wouldn’t be fair to the fans.
I believe in hard work, not luck factor. The best efforts will reap the best fruits. Nobody can take all the credit. We don’t even talk about the efforts of the director, the writers, other technicians, etc. They all together take a film to another level.
Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to quit when he’s losing; nobody wants you to quit when you’re ahead.
There’s a reason I live in the Maine woods, where nobody knows what I do for a living. I think you can be better if someone who’s coming to see you perform has no idea who you really are.
Where large sums of money are concerned, it is advisable to trust nobody.
I know if mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.
I was 30 years old and this girl I knew found out I had never gotten high. Nobody had ever told me about marijuana.
Nobody shoots at Santa Claus.
There are three types of words: words we all know, words we should know, and words nobody knows. Don’t use the third category.

Outside of my home, I look like a very obedient, very serious, very good kind of girl, but nobody knows what happens inside the house.
We all want to just want to live a simple life, but nobody really knows how to do that.
Everybody denies I am a genius – but nobody ever called me one!
Production is a lot of work. Nobody sent me that memo when they came to me to do television.
Nobody heard records of you playing whatever the melody was on those low strings. It worked out good, you know, about 25 or 26 million records later. I guess it worked out alright.
Actually, nobody has ever given me an award, and also, it’s not really important in my life. I go to these award shows for meeting my friends.
Nobody knows better than I do what the pressures of party leadership can do to a young family. It tore mine apart.
Nobody knows what anticipation is anymore. Everything is so immediate.
As for restitutions, to nobody in particular do I owe any, but as for those I owe to the realm, I hope in the mercy of God.
‘Back To Love’ is a way of letting people know that sometimes you get caught up in trying to be successful in school or in your social life, and it’s a reminder not to forget that each day people are getting older. Nobody is promised tomorrow, so we should make sure that we spend quality time with quality people.
I don’t understand this concept of women-oriented films or stories based on women, because nobody uses the term, a ‘man-oriented’ film. Why do you have to separate girls from boys?
Nobody thinks in terms of human beings. Governments don’t, why should we? They talk about people and the proletariat; I talk about the suckers and the mugs. It’s the same thing.
A good puzzle, it’s a fair thing. Nobody is lying. It’s very clear, and the problem depends just on you.
When I won the world championship, in 1972, the United States had an image of, you know, a football country, a baseball country, but nobody thought of it as an intellectual country.
There are people who try to judge. I’m cool with that. I don’t care what nobody say – the only thing that can defeat hate is love.
Nobody really knows what they’re doing. Some are just better at pretending like they do.
I want to be remembered as the football player I was. The private person is nobody’s business.
It almost seems that nobody can hate America as much as native Americans. America needs new immigrants to love and cherish it.
Nobody brainwashed me with God in my head or anything. I just saw this new reality, and I felt like I’ve been blinded, and I finally took the blindfolds off.
People idealize or reminisce about their 20s, but nobody tells you beforehand that it’s hard and unglamorous and often very unpleasant.
Humans all want to beat the clock but nobody ever does.
America’s liberal arts universities have long been safe zones for leftist thinking, protected ivory towers for the pseudo-elite who earn their livings writing papers nobody reads about gender roles in the poetry of Maya Angelou.
I love Bob Dylan. Who doesn’t? He tapped into some kind of vein and it keeps on keeping on. There’s nobody like him. He’s unique, and just… way out cool.
Stay true to yourself, yet always be open to learn. Work hard, and never give up on your dreams, even when nobody else believes they can come true but you. These are not cliches but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path.
The feeling of accomplishment welled up inside of me, three Olympic gold medals. I knew that was something nobody could ever take away from me, ever.
Even though my mother had told me growing up that, ‘If you win, nobody cares what color you are,’ that wasn’t necessarily true in the N.F.L.
All right, then nobody can complain if we ask pregnant women to make parachute jumps.
I’ve been given my money. Nobody has ever beaten me out of one quarter. And that’s all I’ve ever been concerned about.
The film-school mantra is that if you don’t tell your own stories, nobody will.
Your results are very quantifiable. And nobody can take those results away from you. They are yours… All of that, I think, is very good for women.
