When I’m doing kitchen planning as well as bathroom design, I try to walk through the day with the homeowner. If we’re talking about a kitchen, it will be: So, we are walking in with the groceries.

It’s a big thing now: A lot of people want to be assistants to celebrities. If you’re pursuing that, you’re an idiot. You’re a moron. The shortest distance between two points is not a celebrity, or being next to a celebrity. (Distance Quotes)
I want a partner in crime and a Bonnie to my Clyde. I’ve just been so focused on my career. Women don’t like being number two, so I’ve been glad to keep my distance so I could focus on me, get my life together and take care of my mom without disappointing the woman I love. (Distance Quotes)
It is easy for us to criticize the prejudices of our grandfathers, from which our fathers freed themselves. It is more difficult to distance ourselves from our own views, so that we can dispassionately search for prejudices among the beliefs and values we hold (Distance Quotes)
There are some people who become best friends with everyone they photograph. There are people that I really like and admire and respect, but in a way I think it’s better to keep a distance. I think you get better pictures of people that you don’t know very well. (Distance Quotes)
Revenge is a dish best served unexpectedly and from a distance - like a thrown trifle (Distance Quotes)
I’d love to be an astronaut. I bet you get a better understanding of our planet seeing it from a distance. (Distance Quotes)
Art is what gets us beyond what is real. It makes reality more real. It also shortens the distance we gotta travel to see how connected we are. (Distance Quotes)
I’m like the painter with his nose to the canvas, fussing over details. Gazing from a distance, the reader sees the big picture. (Distance Quotes)
The big picture doesn’t just come from distance; it also comes from time (Distance Quotes)
I doubt very much that the chief executives of any of the Fortune 500 corporations can name five edible plants, five native grasses, or five migratory birds within walking distance of their homes, or name the soil series upon which their house sits. And I would contend that if you don’t know where you are, you are in fact nowhere at all. (Distance Quotes)

A beam of light takes about two million years to reach from us to the Andromeda nebula. But my thought covers this distance in a few seconds. Perhaps some day some intermediate form of body and mind may permit us to say that we actually can travel faster than light. (Distance Quotes)
Angie: How do I pitch these ideas to her?Mira: From a distance, preferably wearing body armor (Distance Quotes)
A novelist’s lack of awareness of and critical distance to his own body of work is due to a phenomenon that I have noticed in myself and many others: as soon as it is written, every new book erases the last one, leaving me with the impression that I have forgotten it. (Distance Quotes)
Viewed from a distance, or through the eye of the All-Knowing CEO of the Universe, the crash of 2008 followed the usual pattern. A long-lived boom driven by cheap credit, going back as far as 1982 (though subject to interruptions in the mid-1980s and 1990s, and in 2001), came to grief because of a rise in the cost of borrowing money. (Distance Quotes)
To understand one’s world, one must sometimes turn away from it! To serve better, one must briefly hold it at a distance. Where can the necessary solitude be found, the long breathing space in which mind gathers its strength and takes stock of its courage. (Distance Quotes)
Neighbor is no longer confined to the vocabulary of the individual. It is a national word. Modern inventions have annihilated distance. Commercial relations have broken down barriers of race and religion, and the family of nations is a recognized fact. (Distance Quotes)
Elephants, it turns out, are surprisingly stealthy. As the sunlight fades, other species declare their presence. Throngs of zebras and wildebeests thunder by in the distance, trailing dust clouds. Cape buffalo snort and raise their horns and position themselves in front of their young. Giraffes stare over treetops, their huge brown eyes blinking, then lope away in seeming slow motion. But no elephants. (Distance Quotes)
