We like to categorize things into showy things and deep things, you know, and things that are high music – important music – and shallow music. And I think that’s dangerous, because there’s often a mix of both.
Our culture is all about shallow relationships. But that doesn’t mean we should stop looking each other in the eye and having deep conversations.
I know this sounds terribly shallow, but I’ve been mapping out my outfits for the next day every day since I was little, even before high school.
I do respond to the ideas behind the Eurovision and ‘The X Factor,’ but they’re both so limiting and very, very shallow.
What’s odd about the selfie stick is that while it might faintly improve the photo you’ll post on Facebook, it definitely makes you seem like a shallow, awful clown to any bystanders in the humdrum physical space you’re posing in.
If I spent all my time criticising myself, I wouldn’t be able to function. There are actors who theorise till the cows come home. I haven’t the patience for them. It’s maybe shallow, but that’s why I’ll never be part of the acting set.
When you’re feeling stressed, your breath becomes more rapid and shallow. Take some slow, deep breaths, which will reduce your stress level almost immediately.
Profitability is a shallow goal if it doesn’t have a real purpose, and the purpose has to be share the profits with others.
I’m terribly shallow. I don’t miss things once I have stopped doing them, and I don’t miss people when I stop seeing them.
There is too much disagreement for disagreement’s sake. In a time of persistent challenges that still call into question our most sacred aspirations as a country, we cannot afford shallow callous divisiveness in our public debate.

It would be nice if we didn’t have to drill for oil in the gulf. We have this shallow continental shelf on the west coast of Florida, and it would be a real disaster if we had a major oil spill there. It would be wonderful if we could find some other source of energy.
From a shallow standpoint, I like nice things.
When I first sat down with my oncologist the day before Thanksgiving, and she told me I would need 8 rounds of chemo, one of my first questions admittedly was: ‘Will I lose my hair?’ It sounds shallow, I know, but it was a very scary image to me.

Bermuda – the waters are calm and shallow and are excellent for snorkelling. I loved St, George’s on the tip of the island. I got to swing from the vines like a Jungle Jane and visit Crystal Caves, which were the inspiration for TV show ‘Fraggle Rock.’
A quick shallow fry is a great way to transform leftovers, and no more so than in the case of risotto.
I would not say that my relationships are becoming shallow; if anything, some of them are really being tested in a way that I’m so thankful for my friends that call me and still want to talk.
I think ‘ex-model,’ especially in the UK, smacks of being shallow and stupid and having no soul.
Women are, in general, less shallow visually. If their man gains 10, 20 pounds, they don’t care as much. But I’ve been with women over the years when my weight fluctuated, and they’re definitely more interested physically when I am in really great shape.
