Instance Quotes

Fixable but unfixed bad performance is bad character and tends to create more of itself, causing more damage to the excuse giver with each tolerated instance Picture Quote #1

You can’t learn to write in college. It’s a very bad place for writers because the teachers always think they know more than you do - and they don’t. They have prejudices. They may like Henry James, but what if you don’t want to write like Henry James? They may like John Irving, for instance, who’s the bore of all time Picture Quote #1

I have this friend who has a theory that lots of towns have energies. And, for instance, certain places in Alabama have bad ones because they were built on reservations or built on cemeteries or something. But Nashville has a really gravitational, magnetic pull Picture Quote #1

I just had - we had instances - like, for instance, when I turned 13, she threw me a bar mitzvah. But nobody came.But nobody came because nobody knew what the hell that was. I only had black friends. No one knows what the hell you’re doing Picture Quote #1

A lot of my comic influences are distinctly American: Woody Allen and Bob Hope, for example. They were always the underdogs who were using wit to sort of battle their way through. And it seems to me that a lot of contemporary U.S. comedies are shot through with losers. None of the characters in ‘The Big Bang Theory,’ for instance, are studs Picture Quote #1

If someone’s liver doesn’t work, we blame it on the genes; if someone’s brain doesn’t work properly, we blame the school. It’s actually more humane to think of the condition as genetic. For instance, you don’t want to say that someone is born unpleasant, but sometimes that might be true Picture Quote #1

People’s behavior will change with technology. I know very few young people who can’t type out a text message on their phone with one thumb, for instance Picture Quote #1

I can’t think of an instance at MSNBC where anything I said on the air was influenced by what was going on behind the scenes Picture Quote #1

I think I wish I had never spanked my children, but I have. And they remember every instance like they tattooed it on their palms. I think it’s a terrible lesson, to use physical punishment to make a point about not behaving, not being kind to their siblings, to other people. I mean that’s just absurd. But I’ve lost it, I understand it Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in pretending to be someone else. I’m what I actually am in real life. For instance, like any normal girl, I fight with my mother. I mean, it is just fine. In fact, I fight daily with my mother Picture Quote #1

On the Northern Ireland question, for instance, the British and Irish governments prohibit media contact with members of the IRA, but we have always gone ahead, believing in the right to information Picture Quote #1

Every extra year you spend in a better environment makes you more likely to go to college, less likely to have a teenage pregnancy, makes you earn more as an adult, makes you more likely to have a stable family situation, be married, for instance, when you’re an adult Picture Quote #1

You can’t really class all reality shows together. For instance, ‘Top Chef’ is about talent and competition. ‘Big Brother’ is more like what happens when you get all those narcissistic personalities crammed in together... and there are limits to that Picture Quote #1

The biggest difference between U.S and most European big cities is that in a place like London, for instance, there are five orchestras, and there’s a bloody competition between these five orchestras Picture Quote #1

For instance, in 1999, Bill Gates not only published a new book on work at the speed of thought but also detailed how Microsoft’s ‘Falconview’ software would enable the destruction of bridges in Kosovo Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been fascinated and stared at maps for hours as a kid. I’ve especially been most intrigued by the uninhabited or lonelier places on the planet. Like Greenland, for instance, or just recently flying over Alaska and a chain of icy, mountainous islands, uninhabited Picture Quote #1

You never want to sound bitter about critics, because they’re entitled to do their job, too, but I place much more trust in a person who I can look in the eye and someone who I know I share some kind of taste with - so my friends, for instance. For me, a critic is unknown and therefore irrelevant Picture Quote #1

I got out of the Army - in my world - I came to New York, for instance, when the civil rights movement was just beginning, and that created a certain energy, a certain rumble, a certain impetus for black actors Picture Quote #1

There’s still a place for marching for instance with the Black Lives Matter movement, we’ve seen the importance of causing a scene, being on the streets and making your demands and your voice heard; Picture Quote #1

Certain formats should never be forgotten, ‘Blind Date’ for instance, because ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ is really ‘New Faces’ or ‘The Gong Show,’ whilst we’re basically ‘Opportunity Knocks.’ Picture Quote #1

Love isn’t blind. Love is reasonable. God is pure love, but He is also pure reason. If you separate reason from faith you’ll end in violence. Either way, if you have a purely rationalistic scheme that is atheistic, for instance Communism was for social justice. Fascism was for the nation-state, which isn’t automatically a bad thing Picture Quote #1

It’s unarguable that the right shoes can really add elegance to an outfit and to the person who’s wearing them. Take a pair of high heels, for instance. Suddenly, you’re looking taller, shoulders back, body curved Picture Quote #1

It’s always a challenge to discover the most effective first sentence, and the most effective final sentence, in a chapter for instance, and in the book as a whole Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I always urge people to do something different, so for instance find something that you have secretly always wanted to try like dancing or boot camps or boxing, and Google search and put your zip code in and find a location- a class or trainer that teaches that in your area Picture Quote #1

Some writers just write about their own lives. Well, I don’t want to do that. I want to have a really boring life. A quiet, boring life so no one wants to write a biography. I’m the only writer in history only to have one wife, for instance Picture Quote #1

Certainly, the Bush Administration will rely in the first instance on its friends, since it would be both illogical and counterproductive to reward its adversaries Picture Quote #1

Every corporate security may be best viewed, in the first instance, as an ownership interest in, or a claim against, a specific business enterprise Picture Quote #1

Barack Obama doesn’t believe in free enterprise. He’s never going to admit it. For instance, he’s never going to come straight out and say, ‘If you own a business you didn’t build it.’ Alright, maybe he will Picture Quote #1

Sometimes, if you have a lot of history with a character and a lot of affection, it’s hard for you to do anything with that character. Like with Swamp Thing, for instance, I revere the Alan Moore run so much that it would be hard for me to do my own Swamp Thing. I care too much about the way it was done before Picture Quote #1
