For better or worse, I’ve been involved in the description of political conflict.
The life of any musician really doesn’t fall into a normal schedule at all. Every week there are different rehearsals, different days and nights of performances, so we don’t have a particular pattern that we can follow. For a conductor, it is a little bit worse because we have to allow for traveling.
That was worse than stealing, you know, talking back to a white person.
A State infinitely worse than that which the most inflamed Zealot, the most violent Republican or Enthusiast even pretended to dread before the Rebellion commenced.

That fallacy flies in the face of studies that show, every day, in every way, things are getting a little worse for America’s minorities relative to the progress made by those in the top percentiles of assets and income.
I’m seeing too much power being concentrated in the executive branch, and so our system of government is really in jeopardy, and more importantly, the overwhelming issue that we’ve had for a long time is money in politics. I see that problem getting worse.
No married man is genuinely happy if he has to drink worse whisky than he used to drink when he was single.
There’s nothing worse than coming home to a room that looks like a catalog.
Change is not made without inconvenience, even from worse to better.
There is a greater fatigue concerning the African problem today than five or 10 years ago. The situation now in Africa is worse today than it was 10 years ago.
Nobody feels any worse than I do about losing.
Certainly there are worse sins than doing everything possible to make your presidency matter.
I just believe that the feeling of wonder is amazing. I am pushing myself as far as I can humanly push myself… I can only hope for the best and expect the worse.
From 20 years of experience hiring artists out of the schools, I know-they get worse every year. They’re absolutely ridiculously retarded now.
Bad weather always looks worse through a window.
There’s always something we can complain about. We’re all one. Things could always be better, but things could always be worse.
I think reconciliation is Obama’s goal – but the fight with the Republicans is like a fight with pit bulls, they never let go. Even worse, now the Republicans feel they can keep pushing and he will keep giving. They have not seen a stiff resistance on his part.
Mania is as bad as it gets. If not treated, it will become worse, more frequent, and harder to treat.
There’s nothing worse – I don’t like listening to actors talk about the process, especially when – I mean, for me I’ve played a lot of guys, dudes, boys in a sense and this was a challenge for me just to play that official character.
For now, capitalism is working to produce more money but does not see the people. This problem is getting worse across the world.
I feel bad that I don’t feel worse.
I have a horror of boring someone or, worse still, of someone boring me. I said to my mother when I was seven, ‘But, Mums, if it was only my husband and me in the house together, what would we talk about?’ I’ve never wanted to answer my own question, and doubt I’ll bother now.
Things alter for the worse spontaneously, if they be not altered for the better designedly.
True, the name of the product wasn’t so great. Kindle? It was cute and sinister at the same time – worse than Edsel, or Probe, or Microsoft’s Bob. But one forgives a bad name. One even comes to be fond of a bad name, if the product itself is delightful.
In real life, I’m not super-posh but if that’s the stereotype, I really don’t care. It could be worse.
There is nothing worse than when actors come to a set – and it happens a lot with big stars – and they are too aware of where the camera is. They are the show. And that becomes apparent and it affects the production. I am like ‘You should not know where the camera is – you should act, and I will do the rest.’
You’ve got to be vulnerable when you’re talking to kids. There’s nothing worse than some adult standing up there just talking down to some kid. You can’t work that way.
Never think you’re better than anyone else, but don’t let anyone treat you like you’re worse than they are.
I thought, transgender people are much worse off than I am. That’s why they’re willing to risk everything to be who they are. But the older I got, the harder it got to stay in my body.
We lavish on animals the love we are afraid to show to people. They might not return it; or worse, they might.
And I’d be lying if I told you that as a black man in baseball I hadn’t gone through worse times than my teammates.

The world is not growing worse and it is not growing better – it is just turning around as usual.
There is no sickness worse for me than words that to be kind must lie.
They sent me to these places to get the weight off. The diets never worked; the diets actually made it worse.
To be political means to speak out, to risk being called ‘catty’, or worse. I don’t hear men worrying about whether they may be right or not. They enjoy the fight, whether it is with words or fists. Women still tend to shy away from controversy, to be uncomfortable with competition.
Scientific prayer makes God a celestial lab rat, leading to bad science and worse religion.
No-deal Brexit could be Boris Johnson’s biggest deception yet – worse than the Boris bus or the lies that had him sacked as a Times journalist or as a spokesman by the then Tory leader, Michael Howard.
All of us make mistakes. The key is to acknowledge them, learn, and move on. The real sin is ignoring mistakes, or worse, seeking to hide them.
We’ve found that patterns of site looting have increased between 500 and 1000 percent since the start of the Arab Spring. Now this is a problem as old as human beings. People were looting tombs 5,000 years ago in Egypt as soon as people were buried, but the problem is only getting worse and worse.
You make a first impression and people never forget it. If people want to think of me as the wacky ‘Juno’ lady forever, I could think of worse ways to be labeled.
Slavery is the first step towards civilization. In order to develop it is necessary that things should be much better for some and much worse for others, then those who are better off can develop at the expense of others.
For better or worse, I’ve always tried to march to my own drum and tell it like it is, while preserving some integrity and style. God, I’m fabulous!
It could become much worse.
All I need is my brains, my eyes and my personality, for better or for worse.
One of the primary reasons why the human brain has evolved to look so far into the future is so that we can take actions in the present that will bring us to a better future rather than a worse one.
Bad excuses are worse than none.
If all Henry Kissinger contributed to the Middle East were a regional arms race, petrodollar addiction, Iranian radicalization, and the Tehran-Riyadh conflict, it would be bad enough. His legacy, however, is far worse than that: He has to answer for his role in the rise of political Islam.
In comedy, when you bomb, especially at The Comedy Store in front of a sold-out house? I think it would have been way worse if I bombed there than losing a UFC fight.
To reject even one major tenet of the religion or to violate one major rule of behavior is enough to get one kicked out – or worse.
The deal looks bad and smells worse.
Anything in any way beautiful derives its beauty from itself and asks nothing beyond itself. Praise is no part of it, for nothing is made worse or better by praise.
Nothing worse than reading a love scene written by your father.
I’ve had to ban my mum from coming to see me play. She gets so nervous before any show. I’ve always got a few nerves but she’s so much worse than me. You’d think she’d be able to handle that kind of situation. After all, she is a concert pianist.
All men profess honesty as long as they can. To believe all men honest would be folly. To believe none so is something worse.
Let Rahul Gandhi become PM if he can. We experimented with Narendra Modi and look where we have landed. Let’s experiment with Rahul Gandhi, or anybody. It can’t be worse than this.
We are all of us the worse for too much liberty.
It’s not a bad day at work when you just have to take your shirt off for a big franchise movie. There are worse jobs out there!
The ballplayer who loses his head, who can’t keep his cool, is worse than no ballplayer at all.
Some people have human muses – mine is a city. I feel a startling ambivalence towards London, but for better or worse my work has come utterly to depend upon it.
A neighborhood is a residential area that is changing for the worse.
It is very wicked for you not to take care of your masters goods, but how much worse is it to pilfer and steal from them, whenever you think you shall not be found out.
Heroes, whatever high ideas we may have of them, are mortal and not divine. We are all as God made us and many of us much worse.
