It didn’t occur to me to do my own thing Picture Quote #1

I took piano lessons when I was like 5 or 6 but that was a long time ago. I stopped when I was 13 Picture Quote #1

I remember telling my creative writing teacher that you never want to have a journal, because if you lose it, then someone’s going to know all your secrets. And then she stopped using a journal, but I always write everything down... Anytime I travel, I try and fill up notepads Picture Quote #1

I’ve stopped war reporting. I realized that I’d answered all of my questions about war and about myself Picture Quote #1

There is a major turning point in life when you have to decide: shall I grow old gracefully or shall I try everything to stem the tide? For me, that point came in 2001, when I stopped dyeing my hair Picture Quote #1

I actually used to smile a lot in pictures. I think I only stopped smiling when I got into fashion. Fashion stole my smile! Picture Quote #1

I stopped beating up on myself. I stopped asking myself why I didn’t sell this number of records, why I don’t have corporate sponsorship. I just don’t buy into any of that anymore Picture Quote #1

Every major industry was once a growth industry. But some that are now riding a wave of growth enthusiasm are very much in the shadow of decline. Others that are thought of as seasoned growth industries have actually stopped growing. In every case, the reason growth is threatened, slowed, or stopped is not because the market is saturated. It is because there has been a failure of management Picture Quote #1

I started boxing when I was eight. I enjoyed when I could hit someone and they couldn’t hit me back. It was like a game for me. The feeling of knocking someone out. My first knockout victory was when I was ten. He went down and his nose started to bleed, so they stopped it Picture Quote #1

The artists in country music who stopped having hits are the ones who were led into something that wasn’t them Picture Quote #1

Feminism has never been sexy, but let me assure you that it never stopped me from flirting, and I have seldom suffered from lack of men Picture Quote #1

Your lies didn’t stop me loving you; your truth hasn’t stopped me either Picture Quote #1

Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day Picture Quote #1

You were a terrible baby, do you know that? Bawling all the time, never sleeping. And one night you just wouldn’t shut up, screaming like a dying pig. I walked over to your crib, I looked down at you. I wanted to strangle you. And you looked up at me and you stopped screaming. You smiled at me. Don’t die so far from the sea Picture Quote #1

There is tonic in the things that men do not love to hear. Free speech is to a great people what the winds are to oceans... and where free speech is stopped miasma is bred, and death comes fast Picture Quote #1

It is essential... that discipline should not be practised like a rule imposed on oneself from the outside, but that it becomes an expression of one’s own will; that it is felt as pleasant, and that one slowly accustoms oneself to a kind of behaviour which one would eventually miss, if one stopped practising it Picture Quote #1

The pernicious influence of the prize and medal giving in art is so great that it should be stopped. History proves that juries in art have been generally wrong Picture Quote #1
