Taken Quotes

Martha Graham, along with George Balanchine, is one of the two commanding figures in 20th-century American dance. For those much younger than I am, her genius as a performer will have to be taken on faith - and on the always-suspect evidence of film. What will last, if things go well, is her genius as a choreographer, as a woman of the theater Picture Quote #1

Dare to fail. If you never fail, you’re never taken risks and that’s no way to take on this life Picture Quote #1

By default, most of us have taken the dare to simply survive. Exist. Get through. For the most part, we live numb to life - we’ve grown weary and apathetic and jaded... and wounded Picture Quote #1

The dark side of social media is that, within seconds, anything can be blown out of proportion and taken out of context. And it’s very difficult not to get swept up in it all Picture Quote #1

I’m riding my man Obama. I think he’s a visionary. Actually, Barack told me the first date he took Michelle to was ‘Do the Right Thing.’ I said, Thank God I made it. Otherwise you would have taken her to ‘Soul Man.’ Michelle would have been like ‘What’s wrong with this brother?’ Picture Quote #1

All my life, I’ve been a type 1 diabetic. I’ve always taken life day by day Picture Quote #1

Some historians trace the start of the War on Terror to November 4, 1979, the day the hostages were taken in Tehran Picture Quote #1

One of my defining beliefs is that Jesus Christ has taken all of my guilt before God, and that he has been raised from the dead. That gives incredible hope and meaning to every day of my life - that nothing done in this world is wasted when it’s done for him and his glory, and that there will be a day of justice and reward for the entire world Picture Quote #1

I love being a grandmother. That feeling you have for your own child - you don’t ever think it will be replicated, and I did wonder if I would have to ‘pretend’ with my grandchildren. But my heart was taken on day one Picture Quote #1

There are only three people in life you can never fool--pawnbrokers, whores, and your mother. Since your mother’s dead, I’ve taken her place. Hence, I’m bullshit-proof Picture Quote #1

A whole world is taken to the grave with the dead person; each one of us is unique and unrepeatable Picture Quote #1

Oh dear me, the Booker people don’t like me. I don’t care. I have been given an award for being taken not seriously, and I am very, very pleased about that Picture Quote #1

Social media reactions to celebrity death have taken on a predictable pattern: an outpouring of shock with expressions of grief, followed by a ghoulish need to know all the details, to see the scene of the death and the family in mourning. Then a post-mortem dissection of all the perceived flaws the celebrity had Picture Quote #1

The wages of sin are death, but by the time taxes are taken out, it’s just sort of a tired feeling Picture Quote #1

God gave our first parents the food He designed that the race should eat. It was contrary to His plan to have the life of any creature taken. There was to be no death in Eden. The fruit of the trees in the garden was the food man’s wants required Picture Quote #1

The classic war movies of the post-Vietnam era have generally taken on grand, philosophical themes: the meaninglessness of war, the grinding down of man by the machine - the machine being war itself, represented by someone like Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in ‘Full Metal Jacket,’ the sadistic marine who turns his boys into instruments of death Picture Quote #1

The reason that war is such a fascinating subject for writers is because it’s a revealer. Put a bunch of people in an adrenaline-fuelled, life-or-death situation and their fundamental behaviours are exposed, the scrim is taken away and the motivations behind each personality come out to play Picture Quote #1

The abrupt and sudden death of my wife has taken a severe emotional and psychic toll on me. On top of that, some people have stooped so low that they have tried to use my personal tragedy for their personal benefit Picture Quote #1

For thousands of years, we did have death surrounding us, and we did have people die in the home. You would take care of your own end. You would do ritual processes, and you would be involved in it, and that’s been taken away in the Western world Picture Quote #1

Unfortunately, actions taken by the Senate ensured that relief from the death tax would only be temporary and that it would come back to life at the full rate again in 2011 Picture Quote #1

We are politically correct, we are afraid to address the problem. Because if you address the problem like I do, people like you call us evil extreme, or you’re being taken to court or you will get death threats in your life Picture Quote #1

I’m in the world where things are taken, never given. How long they choose to love you will never be your decision Picture Quote #1

That is the really great thing about being an adult male, once you get married and have children the whole decision-making process is taken out of your hands, and I for one am extremely grateful Picture Quote #1

I’ve always worked to find really deep meaning of song and also at the same time having it covered in sugar, so it can be taken two or three different ways Picture Quote #1

I had a deep prejudice against the South. It’s taken me many years to get over that, be more open and thoughtful Picture Quote #1

I pass no judgment about historic events. I defend the human freedoms. Whatever event has taken place throughout history, or hasn’t taken place, I cannot judge that Picture Quote #1

It’s interesting - a lot of what you accomplish in your lifetime either as an individual or as a company is determined by other people. I mean, you can do interview after interview and defend a point of view, but more often than not, the collective kind of opinion will be the one viewed historically and taken as gospel Picture Quote #1

If you have not taken the time to define what happiness means to you, what have your spent your whole life pursuing? Picture Quote #1

Democrats are people who raise your taxes and spend your money on weird stuff. They steal your guns, and they spit on your faith. And because the Democratic Party was taken over by the aggressive secular guys, they became hostile not just to conservative Catholics and evangelical Christians, but Orthodox Jews and Muslims and Mormons Picture Quote #1

I think having worked in a department store setting, if my life had not taken a drastically different turn when I became an actor, there’s a very high probability I would have continued to work at the department store Picture Quote #1
