Pretty Quotes

The advantage of being celibate is that when one sees a pretty girl one does not need to grieve over having an ugly one back home Picture Quote #1

One can imagine the government’s problem. This is all pretty magical stuff to them. If I were trying to terminate the operations of a witch coven, I’d probably seize everything in sight. How would I tell the ordinary household brooms from the getaway vehicles? Picture Quote #1

With success comes expectation and I know the expectation on me is going to be pretty high Picture Quote #1

I don’t live a very posh life. There are no drivers waiting or people doing everything for me. I pretty much live like a normal person... It’s not good to have a life without responsibilities, you know? Picture Quote #1

If you die trying for something important, then you have both honor and courage, and that’s pretty good Picture Quote #1

I have never figured out how women work but I do know that their skin color has no significance. Black or white, every last one is pretty pink on the inside and they are all impossible Picture Quote #1

Zen is really just a reminder to stay alive and to be awake. We tend to daydream all the time, speculating about the future and dwelling on the past. Zen practice is about appreciating your life in this moment. If you are truly aware of five minutes a day, then you are doing pretty well. We are beset by both the future and the past, and there is no reality apart from the here and now Picture Quote #1

There’s a virtuous cycle when people have to defend challenges to their ideas. Any gaps in thinking or analysis become clear pretty quickly when smart people ask good, logical questions. You can’t be a good value investor without being an independent thinker – you’re seeing valuations that the market is not appreciating. But it’s critical that you understand why the market isn’t seeing the value you do. The back and forth that goes on in the investment process helps you get at that Picture Quote #1

It’s pretty cool that people will pay for something even though they don’t have to. It’s totally different now to back in the day. Now you’re paying for a record because you believe in the band. In the future that will be the only time people will pay for albums, because there’s some kind of connection Picture Quote #1

As you know, shibumi has to do with great refinement underlying commonplace appearances. It is a statement so correct that it does not have to be bold, so poignant it does not have to be pretty, so true it does not have to be real. Shibumi is understanding, rather than knowledge. Eloquent silence. In demeanor, it is modesty without pudency. In art, where the spirit of shibumi takes the form of sabi, it is elegant simplicity, articulate brevity. In philosophy, where shibumi emerges as wabi, it is spiritual tranquility that is not passive; it is being without the angst of becoming Picture Quote #1

I have a pretty good memory, but memories are time beings, too, like cherry blossoms or ginkgo leaves; for a while they are beautiful, and then they fade and die Picture Quote #1

The comforting thing to the horse is, is as you become more and more accurate, he knows you’re aware of him, and pretty soon because of that he’s aware of you more and more of the time Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a martial arts gym surrounded by men and boys, and I pretty much call myself a tomboy Picture Quote #1

I think I could totally be a gangster, but I could never be the kind of gangster that carries things out myself. I would have to be the kingpin that has my minions go and do the dirty bidding. I think I’d be pretty good at giving orders Picture Quote #1

The data shows pretty clearly that how voters watch video programming is dramatically changing and reinforces the need for political campaigns to better match their communications outreach efforts to the voters’ changing media habits Picture Quote #1

Knowing what you can do at any given time to look and feel better is pretty powerful Picture Quote #1

I’m also pretty impressive when I’m shoving the neck of a lute into someone’s chest cavity Picture Quote #1

Now I’m a free agent, literally and figuratively. I’ve reached that enviable state in life in which I can do pretty much what I want. And what I want is to continue to play basketball. I still love the game, and I still have something to offer. My coaches and teammates recognize that. At the same time, I want to be genuine and authentic and truthful Picture Quote #1

Going from playing a backroom of a bar to a show for 80,000 people... that’s pretty wild Picture Quote #1

I know pretty well what evidence is, and I tell you, such evidence as that for the resurrection has never broken down yet Picture Quote #1

One of the big questions in the climate change debate: Are humans any smarter than frogs in a pot? If you put a frog in a pot and slowly turn up the heat, it won’t jump out. Instead, it will enjoy the nice warm bath until it is cooked to death. We humans seem to be doing pretty much the same thing Picture Quote #1

The idea that somebody else is going to swoop down and play the fairy godmother role is pretty unlikely, so why not take care of yourself? Picture Quote #1

Whatever success I’ve achieved has come from pretty much doing the opposite of what I’ve been told or expected to do Picture Quote #1

Neither limits nor adversity are what ruin men. Under pressure, they handle themselves pretty well. It’s the lack of limits they can’t handle. That’s when they run amok. So, if you really want to see what a man is made of let him think he can get away with something Picture Quote #1

Opportunities present themselves to me. That’s how my whole life has been pretty much. I’ve been lucky Picture Quote #1

I would close down all those teenage magazines that encourage young girls to diet. Who says that to be pretty you have to be thin? Some people look better thin and some don’t. There is almost a standard being created where only thin is acceptable. The influence of those magazines on girls as young as 13 is horrific Picture Quote #1

Photography is pretty simple stuff. You just react to what you see, and take many, many pictures Picture Quote #1

It’s pretty irrefutable that you can help yourself. I just don’t believe in ultimatums Picture Quote #1

Living is really pretty simple. Living happens right now; it doesn’t happen back then, and it doesn’t happen out there. Living is not the story of your life. Living is the process of experiencing right now Picture Quote #1

Buy low and sell high. It’s pretty simple. The problem is knowing what’s low and what’s high Picture Quote #1
