Text Quotes
If I were to speak of war, it would not be to show you the glories of conquering armies but the mischief and misery they strew in their tracks; and how, while they marched on with tread of iron and plumes proudly tossing in the breeze, some one must follow closely in their steps, crouching to the earth, toiling in the rain and darkness, shelterless themselves, with no thought of pride or glory, fame or praise, or reward; hearts breaking with pity, faces bathed in tears and hands in blood. This is the side which history never shows (Show Quotes)
A lot of people said I could be a good player. I just wanted the opportunity to show it. I just let it happen (Show Quotes)
Everybody is different and I think that we live in a material world. But for me, possessing things is not that interesting. Living in a grand environment to show myself and others that I have wealth has zero appeal. Whatever I own is temporary, since we’re only here for a short period of time. It’s what we do and produce, it’s our actions, that will last forever. That’s real value (Show Quotes)
Money was a much saner goal than adoration. They’ll both drive you crazy but if I’m going to blow my brains out for five years, I want something to show for it (Show Quotes)
I cannot understand antiabortion arguments that center on the sanctity of life. As a species, we’ve fairly comprehensively demonstrated that we don’t believe in the sanctity of life. The shrugging acceptance of war, famine, epidemic, pain, and lifelong, grinding poverty show us that, whatever we tell ourselves, we’ve made only the most feeble of efforts to really treat human life as sacred (Show Quotes)
I’m no prophet, but I’m guessing that comic books will always be strong. I don’t think anything can really beat the pure fun and pleasure of holding a magazine in your hand, reading the story on paper, being able to roll it up and put it in your pocket, reread again later, show it to a friend, carry it with you, toss it on a shelf, collect them, have a lot of magazines lined up and read them again as a series. I think young people have always loved that. I think they always will (Show Quotes)
I used to think great teachers inspire you. Now I think I had it wrong. Good teachers inspire you; great teachers show you how to inspire yourself every day of your life. They don’t show you their magic. They show you how to make magic of your own (Show Quotes)
Most of the information we now get is through television and is mutilated. Photography offers the opportunity to spend much more time on a topic. It’s relatively cheaper medium, and can allow a photographer really to live in another place, show another reality, get closer to the truth (Show Quotes)
In waiting for the glorious moment of that first book contract, writers must have giant reservoirs of patience. Yet they must persevere because they don’t know the destiny that is being worked out for them. They creep humbly along the ground, without the spacious aerial vision of their lives that would show them the destiny in store for them (Show Quotes)
Let go of what you think you need and what you really need will show up (Show Quotes)
Fact is, the desperate desire to be cool has skewed our culture toward nihilism, carelessness, and ineptitude. It is now cool to be an idiot. A jackass. It’s cool to be a failure, as long as your failure is the basis for a reality show (Show Quotes)
The world is run by those who show up not those who wait to be asked (Show Quotes)
People can say the money doesn’t really matter but it does show you how much a club respects you (Show Quotes)
I was very emotional. I cried when I got into the locker room. I didn’t want to show that stuff on the sideline (Show Quotes)
Sometimes you have to show them what they want to see in order to get them to show you who they really are (Show Quotes)
I don’t want to show clothes, I want to show my attitude, my past, present and future. I use memories and future visions and try to place them in todays world (Show Quotes)
Harshness towards individuals who flout the laws and commands of the state is for the public good; no greater crime against the public interest is possible than to show leniency to those who violate it (Show Quotes)
Despite the reams of paperwork, obstacles worthy of a horse show, and a wait that can rival an elephant’s gestation, adoption feels no different on the inside (Show Quotes)
What matters most is how you live your life, not what you have to show for it (Show Quotes)
Most men have an insecurity of some sort. But we’re brought up to believe that we can’t show them (Show Quotes)
If we could only make our hands move as actively as our tongues, what wonders we could accomplish! Almost everyone loves to hear his own voice. It is so easy, too! Yet if we could say less and do more for each other’s good, not alone would every home be happier, but communities would be enriched thereby. Instead of criticism by speech, to show someone a better way to do a thing would be of much greater value (Show Quotes)
Observations of the sickening effect of programmed environments show that people in them become indolent, impotent, narcissistic and apolitical. The political process breaks down, because people cease to be able to govern themselves; they demand to be managed (Show Quotes)
All good, clean stories are melodrama; it’s just the set of devices that determines how you show or hide it (Show Quotes)
My devotion to my job started from a personal defeat: my first girlfriend’s parents rejected me because I wasn’t rich. I decided I would show them what a big mistake they had made (Show Quotes)
Inspiration is for amateurs. The rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightening to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself (Show Quotes)
Never let anyone define what you are capable of by using parameters that don’t apply to you. Inspiration is for amateurs, the rest of us just show up and get to work. Every great idea I’ve ever had grew out of work itself. Sign onto a process and see where it takes you. You don’t have to invent the wheel everyday. Today you will do what you did yesterday, tomorrow you will do what you did today. Eventually, you will get somewhere (Show Quotes)
You must have an alibi to show why you lost. If you haven’t one, you must fake one. You self confidence must be maintained (Show Quotes)
I have inquired for most of my adult life about studies that might show that the death penalty is a deterrent. And I have not seen any research that would substantiate that point (Show Quotes)
I try to make things more interesting. I want to inject a little bit of excitement. I try to do the show for the sake of the show itself, not to make money. Fashion isn’t always about making money (Show Quotes)
Yes, I do like to be in control. I do like everything to be laid out, to know what I’m doing. I’m very impatient. I like things done yesterday, which is probably a fault of mine. I like things to be neat and tidy and organised. I say what I want and show what I want and I keep things private (Show Quotes)
