One Thing Quotes

It’s one thing to be helpless as one tries to lace a corset or to mount an elephant, quite another to be helpless as a bandit pushes a black steel knife against the flesh of your throat while his brother comes to join him Picture Quote #1

There’s only one thing in life for a woman; it’s to be a mother... A woman artist must be... capable of making primary sacrifices Picture Quote #1

When all the thoughts are concerning one thing and the person loses interest in other things, the melancholy begins Picture Quote #1

If there is one thing that all players have in common it is that winning, competitive gene; the ability to overcome obstacles and fight for what you want from your career Picture Quote #1

One thing that worried me was how writers get categorized and so they end up having to write the same kind of book again and again. That is fine if it is what you want to do, but I would rather be locked in the trunk of my car with a weasel than write the same book every three years until I die Picture Quote #1

If you look at the media coverage and surfing magazines, the one thing that really stands out is how hard it is to find a photo of a girl in a magazine unless it’s an ad. It’s kind of strange, still to this day. You see these great looking girls surfing so well that are amazingly talented... They are finally the total package Picture Quote #1

I used to like fishing because I thought it had some larger significance. Now I like fishing because it’s the one thing I can think of that probably doesn’t Picture Quote #1

In a world that’s gone hellishly mad we’ve always taken comfort in the fact that the faith of our fathers is the one thing that remains solid and unchanging. It occurs to very few of us that perhaps for the last 2,500 years the faith of our fathers has been one of the main reasons why our world has gone hellishly mad Picture Quote #1

Most people can’t handle boredom. That means they can’t stay on one thing until they get good at it. And they wonder why they’re unhappy Picture Quote #1

I’m not religious, but I put it that way because I feel so strongly. It’s the one thing you do not ever do. You’ve got to have standards Picture Quote #1

Only one thing matters: live a good, happy life. Do your heart’s bidding, even when it leads you on paths that timid souls would avoid. Even when life is a torment, don’t let it harden you Picture Quote #1

Acceptance of death when it arrives is one thing, but to allow it to upstage the joys of living is ingratitude Picture Quote #1

Everyone knows there’s only one thing less welcome on a stage than a mime, and that’s a clown, because everyone knows that clowns eat people Picture Quote #1

If I had my career to play over, one thing I’d do differently is swing more. Those 1,200 walks I got, nobody remembers them Picture Quote #1

Every minute doing one thing is a minute not doing something else. Every choice is another choice not made another path grown over lost Picture Quote #1

I know it’s not strictly sex that accounts for my straying the motive usually attributed to men. I think it’s just too tempting to have two lives rather than one. Some people think that too much travel begets infidelity: Separation and opportunity test the bonds of love. I think it’s more likely that people who hate to make choices to settle on one thing or another are attracted to travel. Travel doesn’t beget a double life. The appeal of the double life begets travel Picture Quote #1

If I could teach my children only one thing, it would be the skill of marketing. For with that skill, they could be successful at anything they chose for the rest of their lives Picture Quote #1

One thing about the business and investing world that I connect to very intimately is that there is little room to deny the harsh realities of your mistakes. A bad call can lose you many millions Picture Quote #1

Personal sacrifices are really the beginning and the end of everything, because you don’t win because you do one thing right or two things right. You win because you do 1,000 little things right throughout the year Picture Quote #1

No one can be guaranteed success without failures along the way. But one thing that guarantees failure is never taking action Picture Quote #1

One thing about open source is that even the failures contribute to the next thing that comes up. Unlike a company that could spend a million dollars in two years and fail and there’s nothing really to show for it, if you spend a million dollars on open source, you probably have something amazing that other people can build on Picture Quote #1

I have come to believe that one thing people cannot bear is a sense of injustice. Poverty, cold, even hunger are more bearable than injustice Picture Quote #1

When the mathematician says that such and such a proposition is true of one thing, it may be interesting, and it is surely safe. But when he tries to extend his proposition to everything, though it is much more interesting, it is also much more dangerous. In the transition from one to all, from the specific to the general, mathematics has made its greatest progress, and suffered its most serious setbacks, of which the logical paradoxes constitute the most important part. For, if mathematics is to advance securely and confidently, it must first set its affairs in order at home Picture Quote #1

I hope to make acting my career for the rest of my life, if I can. If acting doesn’t work out I’d love to produce, direct, or write. I just want to stay in this business. That would be my number one thing. I always want to be an actress Picture Quote #1

If I have learned one thing in my 54 years, it is that it is very good for the character to engage in sports which put your life in danger from time to time. It breeds a saneness in dealing with day to day trivialities which probably cannot be got in any other way, and a habit of quick decisions Picture Quote #1

I force myself to think of anything but the one thing that I’m actually always thinking about. And that is so exhausting that I sleep more than I ever have Picture Quote #1

And if we seem nutty to you and if we seem like an odd ball to you, just remember one thing. The mighty oak tree was once a nut just like me Picture Quote #1

To do suc cessful research, you don’t need to know everything, you just, need to know one thing that isn’t known Picture Quote #1

Life isn’t about trying to be an expert in everything. It’s about being an expert in one thing and offering it to the world Picture Quote #1

I’ve accepted the fact that because I’m human, I’m terrific in one thing, good at some, mediocre at a bit more, and terrible at others. And if you’re human, you are too. You’ll have to discover the one thing that you are good at and major in it Picture Quote #1
