Early Quotes

But for me, I thought you made a record, you got on a bus, went out and played your shows and made a lot of money. That was the way it was supposed to go down. But there’s a lot more to it than that. There are a lot of early mornings, late nights, a lot of traveling, a lot of being away from home, being away from your family Picture Quote #1

I’m Irish as hell: Kelly on one side, Shanley on the other. My father had been born on a farm in the Irish Midlands.

I just couldn’t own being Irish Picture Quote #1

For those that don’t know, my sister was born with Down Syndrome, and she was institutionalized in the very early sixties. Me, being just a small boy and being shuffled around between my mother and grandparents, I never knew her Picture Quote #1

I was born three weeks early, and I kept being ill. From the age of zero to four, I was always in hospital having tests done, but they couldn’t find out what was wrong. They discovered that one of my kidneys wasn’t working properly, and it had scarred. I had to have 32 injections in my arm in the morning and evening to try and make me better Picture Quote #1

No one is born a writer; literacy is a peculiar mode of being, but I was all about stories from a very early age, before reading Picture Quote #1

At first, being a storyteller, it was fun to dress up and fun to sing songs and pretend to be very dramatic - all of that stuff was just fun early on Picture Quote #1

The number of CEOs voluntarily leaving their jobs or being forced out spiked early. Many of those companies will be turning to an interim CEO to take the reins. These temporary leaders are increasingly in demand, according to those who watch corner office trends Picture Quote #1

Design bugs are often subtle and occur by evolution with early assumptions being forgotten as new features or uses are added to systems Picture Quote #1

I’m grateful that, after an early life of being silenced, sometimes violently, I grew up to have a voice, circumstances that will always bind me to the rights of the voiceless Picture Quote #1

I started working with James [Schamus] early on, and my role as an executive producer was more about being involved in the conversations of putting the film together. I didn’t have to do much work because James is the most experienced first-time director you could imagine Picture Quote #1

I actually think it’s better I started by being close to customers. That foundation early on helped me later when I went into logistics and other kinds of management Picture Quote #1

There were many influences on me while growing up. In the late Seventies and early Eighties when I was growing up in Hyderabad, it was a bit more laid-back, and that gave you time to think about things differently without perhaps being caught up in the narrow approach to one’s journey through life Picture Quote #1

I found early on in teaching, if you’re too blunt an instrument, the students discredit you and think you’re just being mean. They’re not interested in what you have to say Picture Quote #1

Quite early on, and certainly since I started writing, I found that philosophical questions occupied me more than any other kind. I hadn’t really thought of them as being philosophical questions, but one rapidly comes to an understanding that philosophy’s only really about two questions: ‘What is true?’ and ‘What is good?’ Picture Quote #1

I can’t stop being in parades. I just love dancing on floats that move really slowly on the city streets in the early morning Picture Quote #1

The Senate was an odd compromise between the founders and the early leaders of the republic who wanted a single house which was based on popular sovereignty representing the people and those founders who wanted two houses, the upper house, the Senate, being the more aristocratic Picture Quote #1

Early on I saw the plastic quality in colored people and had friends among them; and later was to work from colored models and friends, including Paul Robeson, whose splendid head I worked from in New York. I tried to draw Chinamen in their quarter, but the Chinese did not like being drawn and would immediately disappear when they spotted me Picture Quote #1

Black people dance well because we start early - there’s music being played everywhere. White people? They don’t start dancing until they get to college, and by then, it’s too late; the bottom don’t move with the top no matter how hard they try Picture Quote #1

If a man isn’t being nice when you’re out, all you have to do is remain polite and then go home early Picture Quote #1

That is the power of the Eucharist. At the communion table you have rich and poor together in the early church and they were being challenged Picture Quote #1

I care a great deal about LGBT U.S. servicemen and women being able to serve openly and honestly. Since early in my career, I’ve included realistic LGBT characters in my books.
