Now, here’s a good question: should serious people focus on global political instability - terrorism, failing states, nuclear weapons - or should we focus on global climate instability - droughts, floods, extreme weather? Here’s the correct answer: yes, both, because climate disruption will make every other national security problem worse (Serious Quotes)
People are complex, and I think it’s a huge element of what I do, because you have to balance out the fact that you talk about quite serious things with a sense of irony and tongue-in-cheek humor. That’s my personality as well (Serious Quotes)

Most human beings have enough sense to know that if they work in a city that has a serious smog problem, it’s wise to either stay indoors or at least wear a mask that will filter out the poison. But cigarette smokers have their own little concentrated toxic smog pack that they don’t avoid (Serious Quotes)

Women stand related to beautiful nature around us, and the enamoured youth mixes their form with moon and stars, with woods and waters, and the pomp of summer.

They refine and clear his mind: teach him to put a pleasing method into what is dry and difficult (Serious Quotes)
Being in a girl group, we might bicker a lot about hair dryers or straighteners, but it’s never serious. We’ve been lucky that we get along so much, it’s like having three other sisters to party with every day-it’s fun! (Serious Quotes)
Our education system is increasingly embracing a black-and-white way of thinking, in which ‘learning’ and ‘play’ are diametrically opposed. ‘Learning’ is the serious stuff that happens inside a classroom and can be measured via multiple choice questions and a No. 2 pencil. ‘Play’ is frivolous, fun, and worst of all, optional (Serious Quotes)
The defensive (or passive) investor will place chief emphasis on the avoidance of serious mistakes or losses. His second aim will be freedom from effort, annoyance, and the need for making frequent decisions (Serious Quotes)
Never say anything about a person you wouldn’t say to them directly, and don’t try people without accusing them to their face. Badmouthing people behind their backs shows a serious lack of integrity and is counterproductive. It doesn’t yield any beneficial change, and it subverts both the people you are badmouthing and the environment as a whole (Serious Quotes)
Health-wise there is nothing to worry about. Though I had gone through a surgery sometime ago, it was nothing serious (Serious Quotes)
The world is too serious. To get mad at a work of art-because maybe somebody, somewhere is blowing his stack over what I’ve done-is like getting mad at a hot fudge sundae (Serious Quotes)
Somalis have made my city of Wilmington, Delaware, [their home] on a smaller scale. There is a large, very identifiable Somali community, I might add if you ever come to the train station with me you’ll notice I have great relationships with them because there’s an awful lot driving cabs and are friends of mine. For real. I’m not being solicitous. I’m being serious (Serious Quotes)
The basic question ‘will I obey Christ ‘s teaching?’ is rarely taken as a serious issue. For example, to take one of Jesus’ commands, that is relevant to contemporary life, I don’t know of any church that actually teaches a church how to bless people who curse them, yet this is a clear command (Serious Quotes)
There are reports that French President Francois Hollande had an affair with an actress who is 18 years younger than him. It’s pretty serious. Under French law, he could face up to 30 high fives (Serious Quotes)

I was a serious comic collector and fanboy as a kid. I wanted very badly to draw comic books for a lot of my childhood and early adolescence. So when you have an unfulfilled dream like that, when years later you find yourself in a position to make a graphic novel - hell yeah, I’m going to do that (Serious Quotes)
The muscularly developed actor is not seen as a serious actor although he should be seen as a serious actor because he has been preparing for these muscular roles his entire life. If you can dedicate years of your life to hitting the gym and dieting and eating right you can definitely take a movie role seriously (Serious Quotes)
Before my marriage, I was really wild, and I was very open about it. My wife knows about it. From the age of 19 to 30, I was this mad, wild person. I just wanted to have a good time, not get serious with anyone. I didn’t allow relationships to happen, and I made it clear to whoever I was with (Serious Quotes)
I remember my first actor that I really, really fell in love with was Tom Hanks. I suppose when I was growing up and getting more serious about acting, at that point, he was the biggest actor in the world (Serious Quotes)
I once called a guy into his own office and spun around in his own chair to greet him. That kind of thing may be why I quit, before I got into serious trouble. I would smile and the person would get so upset. But you do a thousand of those things, and it makes you weird (Serious Quotes)
I have to be entertained by what I’m writing, so a lot of my stuff has a goofiness or scatological quality. If these characters can entertain me, then I feel like I can deal with the darker or more serious stuff (Serious Quotes)
It’s too bad that there aren’t as many light comedies around in the movies as there were when I was making pictures like ‘The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer.’ The boys are just not writing them. Many writers are more serious now than they used to be, and that’s showing up in all phases of entertainment (Serious Quotes)
I’ve never really been serious about my villainy. I don’t have a master plan. I suppose my philosophy is: Every villain has a mother. For every cold-blooded killer on your screen, there’s a little old lady somewhere who calls him ‘sonny.’ (Serious Quotes)
From their 61 Cavern Club debut to their last rooftop concert eight years later, The Beatles gave every serious artist in their wake the songbook and sound for their career. It’s the musical trough from which nearly every musician drinks (Serious Quotes)
One of the things about Scrubs is that it’s about great friendships and... as broad and as serious as we get it’s always really about friendship. It’s about getting through the challenging parts of your life with the help of your friends (Serious Quotes)

I’m not sure I was a typical head of a company. Most people that run big companies come out of sales and they come out of marketing and they’re quite serious and they have MBA’s from very good schools and things like that. I’m an accidental CEO, thank the Disney Company (Serious Quotes)
I’ve generally gotten negative feedback from men who don’t understand and don’t find street harassment to be a serious issue. I’ve also gotten a lot of responses from women who are appreciative and thankful for the project; who relate to it who are passionate about it (Serious Quotes)
I like playing an array of different roles. From the fun, comedic roles to the serious roles. It’s always fun to play the role that either closely represents your own personality or the role that is completely opposite of yourself (Serious Quotes)
