Terms Quotes

I really feel that I had a genuinely diverse, multicultural upbringing, and I just don’t find New York to be quite as diverse. Maybe I’m romanticising, but I feel that I was exposed to a real melting pot in terms of culture and pop culture. My kids are essentially middle-class, but I do try to remind them that they come from humble beginnings Picture Quote #1

My parents were reluctant to let me start auditioning until I was at least a little bit emotionally stable - I’m still working on that! And so I started when I was fifteen, and it was the best thing that could have happened to me in terms of being able to focus my crazy teenage energy into something good Picture Quote #1

I really love the experience of moving things around, in terms of being a director Picture Quote #1

We tend to think of heroes only in terms of violent combat, whether it’s against enemies or a natural disaster. But human beings also perform radical acts of compassion; we just don’t talk about them, or we don’t talk about them as much Picture Quote #1

I learned discipline from my father. Not in terms of corporal punishment, but being determined in whatever you do, and sticking with it Picture Quote #1

I always was very interested in intellect and the massive world of knowledge out there, but in terms of being a kid who wanted to be treated as an equal, school is not the place Picture Quote #1

I knew I wanted to make a movie that hadn’t really existed in a while in terms of being a teenager Picture Quote #1

Without being overtly political about it, if people with severe disabilities are calculated in societal terms purely as a monetised unit, in terms of how much they cost in terms of care, you lose an important sense of who they are and the effect they have Picture Quote #1

I don’t think about it in terms of being a woman. Being gracious, attentive, curious, interested are requirements for everyone Picture Quote #1

I think a lot of people want people who actually have qualities they don’t find attractive as a way of being able to change them. It’s fascinating, because people think if they can change the other person, they can change themselves. It’s a complex phenomenon. It’s a fantasy that’s actually about being able to come to terms with ourselves Picture Quote #1

My life has shifted to different levels financially, in terms of fame as a result of being blessed enough to be able to share my music with the world, and what that has done for me. Despite all of that, I always want people to listen to my music and be able to relate to it as well as to me Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I see the world in terms of stupid or clever, but in terms of being able to get irony. There’s some awful statistic about only 20 per cent of Americans being able to understand irony Picture Quote #1

It’s so rich as a trope - the whole idea of the road and it being in terms of language, being an active experience Picture Quote #1

In terms of having the American people look at the court and think of it as being fair and appropriate for our nation, it helps to have women, plural, on the court Picture Quote #1

I made a real specific decision when I came out of school and most artists were writing about home - if you were a woman, you were writing about being a woman - and I decided not to do that, write about what you know. That’s not what I do. I went as far away from home as possible in terms of the development of my imagination Picture Quote #1

I’m excellent at losing weight, but I’ve never been excellent at maintenance. I have some better days than others in terms of being hypervigilant, but with maintenance you don’t know if you’ve been good at it until you’re done Picture Quote #1

A doctrine capable of being stated only in obscure and involved terms is open to reasonable suspicion of being either crude or erroneous Picture Quote #1

I do think we have a long way to go in terms of the culture around women still being career women, and asking a woman about her career and her work, just seeing them as fully validated human beings in the workplace Picture Quote #1

Being on a boat that’s moving through the water, it’s so clear. Everything falls into place in terms of what’s important and what’s not Picture Quote #1

I love to sing and I really love to write, but in terms of being onstage, I’m not that comfortable, which I think is sort of clear Picture Quote #1

I guess I’m interested in people who are very sophisticated in intellectual ways, while being completely off the mark in emotional ones, with these huge blind spots in terms of their own behavior Picture Quote #1

I always defined myself in terms of my talkativeness, and being without a voice hits me in a number of ways Picture Quote #1

Being a good Hans Haacke student, part of his influence on me is that there’s no difference between a gallery show and a film - or even an ad and a T-shirt-in terms of cultural legitimacy. They’re just different contexts in which to have some sort of communication Picture Quote #1

I started out as a lawyer and came in laterally to Goldman Sachs. So I learned myself that life is unpredictable. That you really should, in terms of your career, try to be excellent at what you’re doing. I think if you focus on your job, and you focus on being broad in the context of your job, the next jobs follow from that Picture Quote #1

I’ve been managing Internet businesses since 1999. That’s 12 years of being in the tornado, and it’s pretty exhausting. I’ll be looking at the next challenge, but in terms of operating an Internet business, I’ve scratched that itch very well Picture Quote #1

I have found, writing a blog, that being non-opaque is necessary. You pretty much have to say what you know in much more firm terms or risk that the legions who always know more than you do will tell the story better Picture Quote #1

Kindness is as simple as being grateful for the love anyone has shown you, by not destroying them because it isn’t on your terms Picture Quote #1

I have stepped off the relationship scene to come to terms with myself. I have spent most of my adult life being ‘someone’s girlfriend’, and now I am happy being single Picture Quote #1

I happened to fall into a job that wound up being a seminal piece of television history, which was a show I did on HBO called ‘The Wire.’ That experience really set the bar for me and opened a lot of doors. It also gave me a lot of street cred in terms of my phone ringing and job offers Picture Quote #1
