I have no fear of losing my life – if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.
I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle.
My life, I realize suddenly, is July. Childhood is June, and old age is August, but here it is, July, and my life, this year, is July inside of July.
I was a very protected and confused kid till 24. It was after then, that I started taking my life seriously.
I asked myself, ‘What are you going to do with your life? Are you going to be like everyone else or are you going to do what’s right?’ I just made a decision. I said, ‘It’s time to grow up. It’s time to start living for the Lord, do things the right way.’ I accepted the Lord, and it changed my life.
I never regret. I don’t like to look back on my life and have regrets.
My life is part humor, part roses, part thorns.
I’ve spent my life butting my head against other people’s lack of imagination.
All that I know about my life, it seems, I have learned in books.
Self-talk, for me, has been the biggest thing in my life. A lot of us have a dialogue that is crap. It’s a crappy dialogue. We live in a world right now that is very external. Everything is very on the surface. Superficial. Everything. And what we’re telling ourselves is what we see on TV.
I don’t have a lot of regrets in my life.
The one thing that I keep learning over and over again is that I don’t know nothing. I mean, that’s my life lesson.
I don’t need to manufacture trauma in my life to be creative. I have a big enough reservoir of sadness or emotional trauma to last me.
Life and death have been lacking in my life.
I let people see the cracks in my life. We can’t be phony. We’ve got to keep it real.
I never saw an ugly thing in my life: for let the form of an object be what it may, – light, shade, and perspective will always make it beautiful.
My morning rituals are typical. I wake up yearning for a few extra moments of rest. I express gratitude to a higher power for the breath in my body and the blessings in my life. I shower. I dress. I eat breakfast. I exchange laughter and words with my beloveds, embracing each other as we say our daily goodbyes.
If my life wasn’t funny, it would just be true, and that’s unacceptable.
If there’s not drama and negativity in my life, all my songs will be really wack and boring or something.
I saw that giving even all my life to God (supposing it possible to do this and go no further) would profit me nothing unless I gave my heart, yea, all my heart, to Him.
Racism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, sexism, anything Nazi and a boatload of other things have no place in my life.
The real beauty of it – key to my life was playing key chords on a banjo. For somebody else it may be a golf club that mom and dad put in their hands or a baseball or ballet lessons. Real gift to give to me and put it in writing.
I loved reading when I grew up but did feel totally invisible because I couldn’t see myself and my life reflected in the books I was reading.
Whatever I start living like and whatever I start going through in my life, that’s how I’m gonna be sounding. It might sound a little different if I get more comfortable.
As a heterosexual man, I’ve never really doubted my sexuality, but I’ve had men in my life and thought, ‘If I was gay, I’d be with him’ – you know?
My life is a struggle.
Editing is the only process. The shooting is the pleasant work. The editing makes the movie, so I spend all my life in editing.
I collect art, and I drink wine… things that I like that I had never been exposed to. But I never said, ‘I’m going to buy art to impress this crowd.’ That’s just ridiculous to me. I don’t live my life like that, because how could you be happy with yourself?
Peace is one of the most precious gifts God has promised His children. I know, because for many years my life was not peaceful, and I was miserable.
I think I have a right to live my life the way I like.
I really believe in the ‘Glow’ and live my life that way. It’s about being positive inside and out and being the best version of yourself possible.
There is my life in Cuba and my life in America, the old life and the new life, and almost nothing about them is the same.
I guess I’m attracted to these off beat roles because my life has been a bit abnormal. The only thing I have a problem with is being labeled.
All my life, as down an abyss without a bottom. I have been pouring van loads of information into that vacancy of oblivion I call my mind.
If Alibaba cannot become a Microsoft or Wal-Mart, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
I feel matured in a way that I’m happy about. I’m at this other stage in my life – and it’s not a bad thing at all.
I live in sin, to kill myself I live; no longer my life my own, but sin’s; my good is given to me by heaven, my evil by myself, by my free will, of which I am deprived.
I want to feel my life while I’m in it.
I was a pitcher, and my dad played in college. The hardest day of my life was telling him I was going to quit to focus more on golf. But with golf, I felt like the game can’t be perfected, and that motivated me.
Whenever I go to New York or any European country, they say: ‘Nawal, why don’t you get a facelift?’ I tell them, ‘I am proud of my wrinkles. Every wrinkle on my face tells the story of my life. Why should I hide my age?’
I wouldn’t trade my life for anybody’s.
I love the beach. I love the sea. All my life I live within – in front of the sea.
I’ve always kinda been a little outcast myself, a little oddball, doin’ my thing, my own way. And it’s been hard for me to, to be accepted, certainly in the early years of my life.
As soon as I touched the mic, I knew that’s what I would do for the rest of my life.
Wasn’t it Emerson who said, ‘My life is for itself and not for a spectacle’? I have a happy, full, good life because I hold it private.
Apart from the desire to produce beautiful things, the leading passion of my life has been and is hatred of modern civilization.
I went through a lot of bullying early on. Girls made my life a living hell. We had come to America from a different country. My brother and I had accents. It was very tough.
Thinking positively and confidently changed my life. If you stay consistent and work hard, you can be successful for a long time.
I always think that for each day of my life, the tune of that day is particular to that day. Each day brings a different tune and I follow whatever it is.
My life hasn’t been all about politics.
I can’t make a song for a particular person or demographic. If I love it, I’m gonna do it. I have to perform it for the rest of my life. A song is like a tattoo – you can never get away from it.
I think of my life as a journey, and I’m still on it.
I bade adieu to mechanical inventions, determined to devote the rest of my life to the study of the inventions of God.
I will not leave South Africa, nor will I surrender. Only through hardship, sacrifice and militant action can freedom be won. The struggle is my life. I will continue fighting for freedom until the end of my days.
As a kid, I kind of spent my life being amazed by being tricked. I love being tricked. I still love it today.
I have lived a long life, and I am proud that I spend the whole of my life in the service of my people. I am only proud of this and nothing else. I shall continue to serve until my last breath, and when I die, I can say, that every drop of my blood will invigorate India and strengthen it.
Disease, insanity, and death were the angels that attended my cradle, and since then have followed me throughout my life.
I have, like, a playlist with all my favourite songs on it. Sadie’s Playlist is the soundtrack of my life. ‘Wonderwall’ by Oasis, ‘Under The Bridge’ by Red Hot Chili Peppers, TLC, ‘Waterfalls’ – I love the ’90s.
I am Pisces, with Aries on the ascent. I couldn’t have done all I’ve done in my life if it hadn’t been for Aries.
My interest is in the future because I am going to spend the rest of my life there.
‘School Daze’ was one of the highlights of my life because it was the first chance I had to act on screen. I would have been happy if that had been it, because I proved that I could do it.
The most important thing, the biggest love of my life, is my snooker. I’ve never been so emotionally ingrained in something – in a person, an object, anything – as I have in snooker.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my life, it’s that curiosity might kill cats, but it doesn’t kill people.
I eat about two meals a day vegan, is my rule of thumb. When I’m traveling, all bets are off, but I don’t cook meat in the house. I rarely cook eggs. I never use milk. But when I go out to eat for a special treat, I’ll have some meat. But I know, personally, that’s the best I’m ever going to do in my life.
I feel impelled to speak today in a language that in a sense is new-one which I, who have spent so much of my life in the military profession, would have preferred never to use. That new language is the language of atomic warfare.
Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
