Speaking Quotes

Unfortunately we - and I’m speaking not for Latin America but for Mexico because that’s where I come from - we still, I think, are a little bit macho. Not that we only live in a macho world, but we also think as a macho world; even the women, you know? The women in Mexico, because that’s the way we were raised Picture Quote #1

I frequently find after a rehearsal of a performance that I have more breath, and can walk better and climb stairs better than I could before. It’s as if I’ve expanded my lungs doing it. Basically speaking, conducting is quite a healthy profession Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I have ever done anything for this age of children before, a pre-school audience. Generally speaking, we don’t have vivid memories of that age and what influenced us, yet clearly they are hugely formative years and it’s really important that we can create television of a high quality for that audience Picture Quote #1

Most people will solve the problems they know how to solve. Roughly speaking they will solve B problems instead of A problems. A problems are high impact problems for your company but they’re difficult problems Picture Quote #1

I was always, and I still am to a certain extent, one of those lazy people who spends a lot of time with Italian friends and yet constantly says I don’t speak Italian. Things slow down when I start speaking Italian Picture Quote #1

Speaking of human computers, there is a guy named Art Benjamin, he’s a human calculator. He says it’s a skill he learned as a kid. Now he’s a math professor at Harvey Mudd. He can find the square root of a six digit number in a few seconds. Practice Picture Quote #1

I hear [my Twitter followers] say, you know, ‘Bob Rae, you’re an asshole’. [...] I’m working my way and trying to represent the people and speaking in Question Period and here we have vox populi, the thoughtful man on the street, ‘you are an asshole!’. Thank you very much. I read it on my Twitter and I get up and ask a question Picture Quote #1

Historically speaking, religious and conservative groups always wanted the control over the private sphere that impacts women most, as reflected by family law and women’s access to resources and mobility. And often secular groups traded this for economic incentives and trade Picture Quote #1

I guess just personally I’ve become a bolder person in my day-to-day. I think a lot of it came from moving to Brooklyn. I just sort of became an adult and started speaking up for myself and not apologising for myself Picture Quote #1

Being black and speaking properly are not mutually exclusive. My father was an African, and he spoke beautifully at home. Nelson Mandela speaks beautifully. Should Mandela put his hat on backwards and say, ‘Yo, homey, this is Nelson. Yo, Winnie, yo, this is def’? Picture Quote #1

Our cause in the war on terror isn’t helped when we have army officers like Lieutenant General William Boykin speaking in evangelical churches and claiming this as some sort of battle for the Christian religion. That’s wrong. That’s un-American Picture Quote #1

The Washington Post speaking out against state legislation that he believed would let businesses deny services to gay, lesbian and transgender people. [Tim] Cook himself came out as gay in the pages of Bloomberg Businessweek Picture Quote #1

I think what Obama does more than his amazing speaking ability is he’s able to connect with voters. And it’s that hope that he brings out in American citizens that we are all hungry for, that people get excited about Sen. Obama Picture Quote #1

Professionally speaking, the proudest moment was when I booked the ‘Human Stain.’ I knew it had Nicole Kidman, Anthony Hopkins, Ed Harris and Gary Sinise on board, and the director Robert Benton was an academy award winner for ‘Kramer vs Kramer.’ Picture Quote #1

Generally speaking, the Way of the warrior is resolute acceptance of death Picture Quote #1

To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself into a victim. When you speak out, you are in your power. So change the situation by taking action or by speaking out if necessary or possible; leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness Picture Quote #1

Speaking as somebody with three sisters and a very largely female Muslim family, there is not a single woman I know in my family or in their friends who would have accepted the wearing of a veil Picture Quote #1

Growing up, I was a target. Speaking the right way, standing the right way, holding your wrist the right way. Every day was a test, and there were a thousand ways to fail, a thousand ways to betray yourself, to not live up to someone else’s standards of what was accepted, of what was normal Picture Quote #1

Public speaking skills are an essential key to achieving career advancement and success Picture Quote #1

What used to frustrate me going into an audition was that some inexperienced, lesser casting people would think that actors are acting only when they’re speaking Picture Quote #1

Psychologically speaking, the rational, healthy response to climate change is to say to oneself, What can I do about this? But that question is often answered through individual action Picture Quote #1

The act of speaking our intentions aloud shifts them from wishful thinking into action Picture Quote #1

Marches work, rallies work, civil disobedience works, direct action works, voting works, writing letters works, speaking to churches and schools works, rioting works Picture Quote #1

The expression from above is for us only a way of speaking. Many receive from above the command for action - we call it intuition Picture Quote #1

I worked on my voice for Sweet Dreams, but only to match my speaking voice to Patsy’s actual singing voice. That was my way into that character Picture Quote #1

You know what? I did a lot of things that were deliberate, and they all backfired. I was trying desperately to become Will Ferrell or Adam Sandler, and it did not work for me. I took a lot of leaps that I shouldn’t have, traditionally speaking. I paid the price for that. I was not as hire-able for a while. But then I just gave all that up Picture Quote #1

I’d never assume an audience was anything but totally receptive and perfect. Seriously, it seems to me that’s the only circumstance you can work under. Otherwise, speaking for myself, you may as well be in the advertising business Picture Quote #1

Stop being a critic and be a light; don’t be a judge, be a model. I think we are far too critical. I think the best way to correct behavior is to accentuate and affirm positive behavior and to ignore negative behavior. Generally speaking, there is a time to correct, of course; but my biggest advice would be, ‘Affirm your child.’ Picture Quote #1

Obama’s a great speaker. Because of his speaking ability and his appearance, a lot of guys got on board. Being the first African American, a lot guys got on board Picture Quote #1

Being born white in South Africa or anywhere in the empire and Commonwealth automatically conferred this special status. You had no problem finding a place to live, a job, trade union membership, access to social services. Being white, speaking English, you were accepted as English, entitled to all the rights of citizenship Picture Quote #1
