It’s traditional for an heiress to be raised in a sheltered way. No one thinks that’s true of me, but it actually was.
I have no right, by anything I do or say, to demean a human being in his own eyes. What matters is not what I think of him; it is what he thinks of himself. To undermine a man’s self-respect is a sin.

The public thinks that homelessness is about not having any accommodation to go to.
All evils to which so many become addicted begin in the mind and in the way one thinks.
You know what? I never really factor Hollywood into anything. I’m a black actor, so I can’t really control what Hollywood thinks. I gotta go do my thing, and my jokes have got to be funny. Whatever I do has got to be great.
How do we turn our nation around? President Obama thinks the answer is more and more government. Government is not the answer. You are not doing anyone a favor by creating dependency, destroying individual responsibility.

Whoever thinks a faultless piece to see, Thinks what ne’er was, nor is, nor e’er shall be.

Every man thinks god is on his side.
One often thinks that using 2 different things like visual and sound lead to 2 different conclusions – to a different content – but in in my case it is all one.
In my opinion, the only real asset one has is one’s reputation, right? I mean, any company and institution can go belly up at any time. But if you have a good reputation, you know, you can usually find somebody who can – who thinks they can use what you have to offer.
I tend to agree with those who say that a justice’s duty is to the Constitution and that it is thus more legitimate for her to enforce her best understanding of the Constitution rather than a precedent she thinks is clearly in conflict with it.
I’ve been taking batting practice in my barn where nobody can see me, so I may be better than anyone thinks.
Putin probably, almost certainly, thinks that one of the great disasters of the 20th century was the demise of the Soviet Union. It’s very obvious that he’s trying to work its way back and maintain something similar to that sort of institution.
I don’t think that anybody in any war thinks of themselves as a hero. The minute anybody presumes that they are heroes, they get their boots taken away from them and buried in the sand.
I just love actors, and I’ve always loved actors. I empathize with their job. Everyone thinks it’s easy, and it ain’t. To be that vulnerable and brave on camera is tough. The more they reveal themselves, the more we love them, but there’s a lot of truth in what they’re showing.
Chandler’s the guy everybody thinks will do well with women, but he thinks too much and says the wrong thing.

Whatever evil a man may think of women, there is no woman but thinks more.
Guys blow my looks up more than I ever would. I guess I have issues with myself. I don’t think I’m as pretty as everybody thinks.
A mediocre mind thinks it writes divinely; a good mind thinks it writes reasonably.
In prose, leaps of logic can be made while the protagonist thinks about things and arrives at conclusions. Even with voiceover, there’s no real way of having an inner voice without it taking over the entire story.
I do have a family, and I do have friends, and so-called friends, and acquaintances, and many other people I see only around Christmas time. Maybe they could vouch for me. Maybe they could testify to my existence and save a part of me that thinks I’m no better than a bag of potato chips.
I need a stylist to help me pull together a wardrobe. I just don’t have a lot of time to go shopping. So I have a stylist that knows what I want to wear, what cut of clothing I like, someone that really thinks and understands what my style and how I want to feel in the clothes.
My mother thinks I am the best. And I was raised to always believe what my mother tells me.
I would say, if you come out, they can’t take away how you play football. That was the thing for me: once I did come out, it’s not going to affect my diving. I can still perform, no matter what anybody else thinks of me. I’m judged for what I do in the diving pool.
At the time of ‘Words, Words, Words,’ I’m a 19-year-old getting up feeling like he’s entitled to do comedy and tell you what he thinks of the world, so that’s inherently a little bit ridiculous.
The ads all call me fearless, but that’s just publicity. Anyone who thinks I’m not scared out of my mind whenever I do one of my stunts is crazier than I am.
I really can’t help what someone thinks of me because they are reading a paper and choosing to believe it.
I’ve discovered that when we take time to renew our minds with God’s Word, we learn how to think like God thinks, say what God says, and act like He wants us to act.
Everyone thinks I’m a nice guy, which is not a bad way to be perceived.
The nice girl thinks she’s giving up something to get something better in return. She gives up control over her own life. When the time comes for her to get what she expected, she winds up disappointed. In addition to being empty-handed, she’s depleted.
Everyone thinks because you’re from the south you know everyone down there, but it’s not like that; I never knew nothing about no Mississippi.

Give a member of Congress a junket and a mimeograph machine and he thinks he is secretary of state.
I don’t even think Trump knows what transgender means. He probably thinks transgender people are those cars that turn into robots.

A boy becomes an adult three years before his parents think he does, and about two years after he thinks he does.
I only eat organic. I love salads and believe food is our best medicine. My son is so brainwashed, he thinks McDonald’s is the devil.
If you look at anyone at the top of their profession, there has to be something a little bit different. Some of the top musicians are quirky aren’t they, to say the least. You have to be driven, cold, hard and mentally tough as iron. My missus thinks I’m a bit weird.
If a man, for private profit, tears at the public news, does so with the impatience of one who thinks he actually owns the news you get, it is against the national interest.
