Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.
A lot of places we go, when they see the organ coming in, they're expecting rock and roll, but after they hear us play they like it. To me, guitar cuts through-it carries more than organ. But organ has got more guts.
A skilful leech is better far, than half a hundred men of war.
Getting to have a higher purpose other than just being successful is very necessary for me.
Personality is more important than beauty, but imagination is more important than both of them.
The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by praise than saved by criticism.
I see myself as most people see themselves, you have good days and bad days. I don't think I'm better looking now than I did three years ago.
'Scary Movie' was a different type of comedy than I'm used to. I've mostly done sitcoms, so working with David Zucker, who wrote the film and who directed the last two 'Scary Movie's and 'Airplane' and 'Naked Gun,' was a lot of help.
The man who trusts men will make fewer mistakes than he who distrusts them.
No statement about God is simply, literally true. God is far more than can be measured, described, defined in ordinary language, or pinned down to any particular happening.
Very often, the judgments by ordinary citizens may be better than those by professional economists, being more rooted in reality and less narrowly focused.
Early on, Android phones were pitched as kind of ersatz iPhones, devices that could do most of what an iPhone did - but were available on carriers other than AT&T, a relatively horrible network that was the biggest source of complaints about Apple's transformative device.
Really showing love requires more than just words.
I would love to see Flip get back into the league. I think he can definitely still coach in this league. I think he will be in this league quicker than sooner.
I try to be as honest about what I see and to speak rather than be silent, especially if it means I can save lives, or serve humanity.
I can't run forever. I decided to go back to school for my degree, because I know now there's more to life than track.
I would rather have a cup of tea than sex.
I had rather believe all the Fables in the Legend, and the Talmud, and the Alcoran, than that this universal frame is without a Mind.
One of the things I've really gotten past in the last couple of years is the idea of being made uncomfortable by the way things appear, rather than how things are. Clearly in this business you have to contend with a lot of that.
The actual producing, mixing, and mastering is hard work, harder than what I do.
The world is not such a large place, and we have more in common with one another than we might think.
Everyone is not able, or inclined, to write poetry in the narrower sense any more than everyone is qualified to take part in a walking race. But just as all of us can and do walk, so all of us can and do use language poetically.
Never has the political class or the mainstream media that covers them been more out of touch with the American people than they are today.
In all seriousness, I don't get people who need to make a proposal a bigger deal than marriage already is.
I see man more as an instrument or an agent more than anything else.
Going to church doesn't make you any more a Christian than going to the garage makes you a car.
I enjoyed my upbringing, my siblings did, we're polite, we're respectful, but at the end of the day we're young, we like to have fun. But now, more so than ever, the youth has been vilified to the point where it feels like you can't enjoy being young any more, you just have to sit it out and wait until you get old.
I paint stupid things; that's what I do. I can't think of anything more boring than a really beautiful thing. You have to mess it up. There has to be something a little kinky to keep their attention.
I'd rather live in a cave with a view of a palace than live in a palace with a view of a cave.
I'd rather be thought as an international actress rather than a French one. Because I don't know what's coming up for me, my ambition is not to be typecast. So I'm working on my English accent, as well as my American one. I don't want to be like 'Okay, I'm French, and I want to succeed in Hollywood!'
I like to give people more than their money's worth.
Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech.
I'd rather be shot than be seen falling out of some trendy club.
Now, it's my belief that Python is a lot easier than to teach to students programming and teach them C or C++ or Java at the same time because all the details of the languages are so much harder. Other scripting languages really don't work very well there either.
There is no author whose books I look forward to more than Vaclav Smil.
Nothing has brought me more love, joy and peace than being a good husband and good daddy.
