Ask Quotes

Ask yourself: Does the job touch my heart and feed my soul? You will never be what you were meant to be if you aren’t having fun Picture Quote #1

People come up to me all the time and ask how I stay the way I am, and it’s no secret. The first lesson a chef needs to learn is how to handle a knife; the second is how to be around all that food Picture Quote #1

He was one of those guys who’d pronounce I’m a hugger as he came at you, neglecting to ask if the feeling was mutual Picture Quote #1

If you think you can just go out and ask all the doctors in the world about what the did to all the patients and you think we can connect that into something useful, go talk to someone who has done that because we can’t Picture Quote #1

I have had a fairly long life, above all a very happy one, and I think that I shall be remembered with some regrets and perhaps leave some reputation behind me. What more could I ask? The events in which I am involved will probably save me from the troubles of old age. I shall die in full possession of my faculties, and that is another advantage that I should count among those that I have enjoyed. If I have any distressing thoughts, it is of not having done more for my family; to be unable to give either to them or to you any token of my affection and my gratitude is to be poor indeed Picture Quote #1

Why should you row a boat race? Why endure the long months of pain in preparation for a fierce half hour that will leave you all but dead? Does anyone ask the question? Is there anyone who would not go through all the costs, and more, for the moment when anguish breaks into triumph or even for the glory of having nobly lost? Is life less than a boat race? If a man will give the blood in his body to win the one, will he spend all the might of his soul to prevail in the other? Picture Quote #1

One of the things young people always ask me about is what is the secret to success. The secret is there is no secret. It’s the basics. Blocking and tackling Picture Quote #1

Imagine yourself at your funeral. Ask yourself what you want your family and friends to say about you. How will you be remembered and what impact will you have had on other people’s lives? How did you make the world a better place? Picture Quote #1

If you ask a stupid question, you may feel stupid; if you don’t ask a stupid question, you remain stupid Picture Quote #1

People ask whether I put the politics first, journalism first or the comedy first; it doesn’t really matter. I’m just playing with the cards that I have been dealt because I really love doing what I do Picture Quote #1

These are beautiful days. Folks ask what I’m doing. I tell them I’m doing family Picture Quote #1

We don’t tend to ask where a lake comes from. It lies before us, contained and complete, tantalizing in its depth but not its origin. A river is a different kind of mystery, a mystery of distance and becoming, a mystery of source. Touch its fluent body and you touch far places. You touch a story that must end somewhere but cannot stop telling itself, a story that is always just beginning Picture Quote #1

There never seems to be any trouble brewing around a bar until a woman puts that high heel over the brass rail. Don’t ask me why, but somehow women at bars seem to create trouble among men Picture Quote #1

If you want to do something, try it! The worst anyone you ask for help can do is say no Picture Quote #1

Ask: is what I’m doing and thinking right now bringing me closer to myself or farther away? Opening my heart or closing it? You have a choice Picture Quote #1

They ask how the universe is arranged, philosophers, mathematicians, and they draw pretty pictures, impossibilities on the page. They save phenomena by telling one ugly lie after another, epicycles upon epicycles, and the fools care not. It is not enough, I tell you, to ask how the cosmos is designed. We must ask why Picture Quote #1

People always ask me to list my greatest accomplishments, expecting me to rattle off a bunch of movies I’ve made, but what I’m proudest of is my kids Picture Quote #1

If you do not want what I want, please try not to tell me that my want is wrong. Or if my beliefs are different from yours, at least pause before you set out to correct them. Or if my emotion seems less or more intense than yours, given the same circumstances, try not to ask me to feel other than I do. Or if I act, or fail to act, in the manner of your design for action, please let me be. I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to understand me. That will come only when you are willing to give up trying to change me into a copy of you Picture Quote #1

How can I ask people who work for me to travel cheaply if I am traveling in luxury? Picture Quote #1

To have people like my work, even if it’s my old work, I can’t ask for nothing nicer than that Picture Quote #1

The art of good teaching begins when we can answer the questions our students are really trying to ask us, if only they knew how to do so Picture Quote #1

Again the important point to remember is that you should keep asking yourself questions. Do not make statements. Ask questions to yourself. The mind hates that Picture Quote #1

How can you ask someone to live in the world and not have something to say about injustice? Picture Quote #1

We ask the education system to expiate the sins of the rest of the society and then condemn it as hopelessly broken when it doesn’t prove up to the task Picture Quote #1

Writing keeps me at my desk, constantly trying to write a perfect sentence. It is a great privilege to make one’s living from writing sentences. The sentence is the greatest invention of civilization. To sit all day long assembling these extraordinary strings of words is a marvelous thing. I couldn’t ask for anything better. It’s as near to godliness as I can get Picture Quote #1

Lord, please give me big ears and a thoughtful mind. Teach me to ask well and see it through other’s eyes Picture Quote #1

I’m gonna ask you one more time, will you or will you not go out with me? I think my hand’s slipping Picture Quote #1

I look out this window and think this is a cosmos, this is a huge creation, this is one small corner of it. The trees and the birds and everything else and I am part of it. I didn’t ask to be put here. I’ve been lucky finding myself here Picture Quote #1

He’s just not that into you if he’s not asking you out. Because if he likes you, trust me, he will ask you out Picture Quote #1

There is nothing more I ask of this life than this moment, exactly so. And suddenly forever seems like too short a time Picture Quote #1
