When you find yourself on stage singing and you are embarrassed about what you are singing in front of your peers, then you have to think about your priorities Picture Quote #1

Your own barometer is all you have to go by, and often what makes a good director is knowing when not to say something. On occasions you can find yourself on a film set where the person who is wearing the director’s hat is only trying to justify his position Picture Quote #1

I think you can find yourself on one of these shows for a long period of time and think that all you’ll ever be able to do is that character. Certainly people think of you that way Picture Quote #1

If you live in the elite world of dance, you find yourself in a world rife with racism. Let’s face it Picture Quote #1

Sometimes, the smaller roles in movies can be the most interesting. If you only take the stance that you’ll only play central characters in movies, you’ll find yourself not being able to indulge in that morally grey terrain that makes support characters so rich and interesting Picture Quote #1

When you do a show five days a week and one night a week, the way I was doing, you use up so much music every day that pretty soon you find yourself hustling for material Picture Quote #1

I was literally just going and applying for jobs, and I couldn’t get a job, and I was getting more and more broke, and you find yourself groveling for jobs you don’t even want Picture Quote #1

Because that’s just the way it is, and don’t sleep on what you did before, you know, because it can... not hurt you, but you can find yourself sleeping on something that happened in the past, but you dare to progress and there is always room for progression Picture Quote #1

Being a press secretary is like learning to type: You’re hunting and pecking for a while and then you find yourself doing the touch system and don’t realize it. You’re speaking for the president without ever having to go to him Picture Quote #1

If you listen to really deep ambient records that don’t move too much, very still records, long after those records are finished, you might find yourself listening for hours to the sound of the room Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been most interested in the politics of everyday life: your relation to whatever you’re doing, or what your ambitions are, where you live, where you find yourself in the social hierarchy Picture Quote #1

You find yourself in the world, without any power, immovable as a rock, stupid, so to speak, as a log of wood Picture Quote #1

You utter a vow or forge a signature and you may find yourself bound for life to a monastery, a woman or prison Picture Quote #1

The first rule of life is to reveal nothing, to be exceptionally cautious in what you say, in whatever company you may find yourself. If you have a secret, you have only to whisper it to your dearest friend with the strictest injunction that it will go no further, and within half a day the story is all over town, and when you do make what would seem to be a perfectly sensible remark, you will find it reported in the most grotesque form, thus incurring no end of criticism to rebound upon you Picture Quote #1

Find yourself a cup of tea, the teapot is behind you. Now tell me about hundreds of things Picture Quote #1

It’s dangerous talking about yourself too much because you find yourself talking in sound bites Picture Quote #1

I am certainly more interested in interviewing than being interviewed. Sometimes you find yourself attacked from the start Picture Quote #1

I feel the older I get, the more I’m learning to handle life. Being on this quest for a long time, it’s all about finding yourself Picture Quote #1

The best thing to do when you find yourself in a hurting or vulnerable place is to surround yourself with the strongest, finest, most positive people you know Picture Quote #1

Love and death are very similar. They’re the times in your life when you most want to believe in magic, when you yearn for some symbolic act or retrospective edit that can change the world you find yourself in Picture Quote #1

You wish for something, you’ve wanted it for years, and you’re sure you want it, as long as you know you can’t have it. But if all at once it looks as though your wish might come true, you suddenly find yourself wishing you had never wished for any such thing Picture Quote #1

Finding yourself in a hole, at the bottom of a hole, in almost total solitude, and discovering that only writing can save you. To be without the slightest subject for a book, the slightest idea for a book, is to find yourself, once again, before a book. A vast emptiness. A possible book. Before nothing. Before something like living, naked writing, like something terrible, terrible to overcome Picture Quote #1

The sea’s only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don’t know much about the sea, but I do know that that’s the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head Picture Quote #1

Miles and years become suddenly invisible when you find yourself back where you started from, as if you’ve learned nothing and you are once again the person you once were Picture Quote #1

Do you ever find yourself bursting into a sort of lunatic laughter at the sheer prettiness of things? Picture Quote #1

There is no reason why you should be bored when you can be otherwise. But if you find yourself sitting in the hedgerow with nothing but weeds, there is no reason for shutting your eyes and seeing nothing, instead of finding what beauty you may in the weeds. To put it cynically, life is too short to waste it in drawing blanks. Therefore, it is up to you to find as many pictures to put on your blank pages as possible Picture Quote #1

If you should find yourself in a place that is indifferent to you and there is someone there that your spirit stretches to, then that person is kin Picture Quote #1
