The trouble with normal is it always gets worse.
After every war, there was a significant change in the music, and I can understand how that happened. If you participate in protecting the country, you think you can be part of it, but you come back home and it’s worse than ever.

Suspense is worse than disappointment.
There is nothing worse for me than sitting in traffic. That’s what killed me in L.A.
I didn’t become a footballer to be famous, I became a footballer to be successful. I didn’t want to be famous. Now people want to be famous. Why? Why would you want people following you about all day? I couldn’t think of anything worse.
My MELD score was pretty high. And the worse you get on that scale, the sooner you get a transplant. It’s based on how sick you are. And believe me, I was pretty sick.
If you’ve ever lived in Chicago, anyone who has, they know what a winter in Chicago is like. To be going through a tough time here in the winter would be just be all the more worse.
Fox News is nothing if not impressive. No matter how harsh the criticism it endures, the network somehow always manages to prove itself even worse than we had previously imagined.
I think that more and more there’s a sense that the best performances I can give are the ones that are the truest to who I am. The further I move away from who I am, the worse they are.
Such is life and life is such and after all it isn’t much. First a cradle. Then a hearse. It might have been better, but it could have been worse.
Beauty is worse than wine, it intoxicates both the holder and beholder.
You can see girls getting too excited and they start crying or worse. In a lot of these countries they don’t get a lot of gigs to go to, so when they get to see their favorite artist they take full advantage of it. Obviously the excitement builds up too much for some on the night and they get a bit… crazy.
There are dictators a bit worse than me, no? I’m the lesser evil already.
Taking something from one man and making it worse is plagiarism.

Beauty is often worse than wine; intoxicating both the holder and beholder.
You can’t let fear paralyze you. The worse that can happen is you fail, but guess what: You get up and try again. Feel that pain, get over it, get up, dust yourself off and keep it moving.
It is aspiring tyrants who say that ‘civil liberties end when an attack on our safety begins.’ Conversely, leaders who wish to preserve the rule of law find other ways to speak about real terrorist threats, and certainly do not invent them or deliberately make them worse.
A good thing to remember is somebody’s got it a lot worse than we do.
I’m in a complete state of panic before I begin something because I’m sure that it’s going to be a complete disaster. I’m going to do a worse job than anybody could ever imagine anybody doing on the planet Earth.
So many people are looking at what’s wrong, and I try to encourage them to look at what’s right in their life. A lot of people have it a lot worse than you do.
To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse then starving the body; it is starvation of the soul, the dweller in the body.
Italy is a tough country to be a comedian in – I can’t invent stuff like this. Nearly eighty crooks in Parliament – that’s about one crook in twelve. It’s worse than Scampia, the most dangerous Naples slum, which is infested by the Camorra, the Neapolitan mafia. There, the criminals are only one in fifteen!
There’s nothing worse than seeing someone chewing gum on the red carpet!
Publicly, we’re saying we’re better at fighting terrorism. Privately, we know that the bureaucracy has only gotten worse, since the high-level people are scared of being held responsible for 9/11.
The thing about For Better or Worse is the only thing that made me an okay director for that is that I have a sense of humor, and it was supposed to be funny.
I’m not going to lie: it’s tough. There were a couple of games where you’re down, and you’re in a really dark place, and you don’t know if you’re ever going to come out of it. You realize, ‘Hey, I’m having a bad day,’ but you realize there are people out there having worse days.
It’s a Fox thing, the bad-boy image. They’re trying to type me out. There are worse things in life, you know. I’m just really excited about the opportunity.
And, if I were so low that I accounted myself the worst of all, yet some would account themselves in worse case.
The idea that your spouse or your parents don’t know where you are at all times may be part of the past. Is that good or bad? Will that make for better marriages or worse marriages? I don’t know.
I believe celebrity spoils people – some worse than others.
Running a marathon is unlike anything I have done. You can recall all those bad weights sessions or the work you had to do in pre-season, but marathon running is worse than any of it, probably the hardest thing I have had to do in my entire life.
A hospital may spend several million dollars separating a pair of conjoined twins even though that separation is likely to leave them worse off.
The old always think the world is getting worse; it is for the young, equipped with historical facts, to point out that, compared with 1509, or even 1939, life in 2009 is sweet as honey.
To generalize on women is dangerous. To specialize on them is infinitely worse.
I’ve been… chased by paparazzi, and they run lights, and they chase you and harass you the whole time. It happens all over the world, and it has certainly gotten worse. You don’t know what it’s like being chased by them.
I don’t know what would have been worse: If Mira had come home one day to say she was gay or an actress.
I try not to wear anything I have to fidget with – there’s nothing worse than wearing something and pulling down the hem and re-adjusting the top. My pet hate is when girls wear those strapless dresses and spend the whole night yanking them up.
Democrats can’t get elected unless things get worse – and things won’t get worse unless they get elected.
I think the best thing we can do is sell that idea of smaller government – of fiscal responsibility vs. the Obama record. Obama made promises, and on every promise in which he’s actually delivered, things have gotten worse instead of better. He said if we get ObamaCare it’ll help, but health care prices went up.
There’s nothing worse than being disappointed in somebody.
I like it now when kids stare at me, because it is a way of starting a dialogue. And it is far better than them not looking at you at all. Nothing is worse than not being seen.
If you go on TV and say there’s no other country in the world where you can be born poor and become rich, you get a huge megaphone.

Electric cars are coal-powered cars. Their carbon emissions can be worse than gasoline-powered cars.
The only thing worse than an active conscience is one that’s retroactive.
In families like mine, there is no crime worse than telling the truth.
There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.
Civil strife is as much a greater evil than a concerted war effort as war itself is worse than peace.
Now, there are so many movies, so many festivals, and so many awards going on, each judged with each other, like your work is worse than others and that’s not fair. How can you tell what’s best and what’s worst from these awards? We’re talking about art.
To drive an F1 car you have to be a little mad. On the morning of a race there’s a mix of excitement and fear. If it’s a wet track, then it’s worse as you’re not in control most of the time, which is the thing all drivers fear the most.
