You'll probably get three horses and you have to draw a good buckin' horse. That's mighty tough.
Things can change only through strong personalities. I am not very good at supporting ignorance and mediocrity, so maybe this leads to arrogant gestures and arrogant responses. So, nobody's perfect.
My mom just understands about stuff. We have a really good trust, and she knows I can take care of myself.
My parents kept the best aspects of the Asian culture, and they Americanized the family. My mother was a great example for me. She was a working mother with a good career.
I would not be a good mother. I mean, I love being an aunt to my niece and nephew. And I used to want to, like, adopt 10 kids - because I had friends who were adopted, and I thought that was the coolest thing, to be chosen. But again, my job is too selfish.
Good council has no price.
Some people are born with a vital and responsive energy. It not only enables them to keep abreast of the times; it qualifies them to furnish in their own personality a good bit of the motive power to the mad pace.
If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good. But you can survive without it.
I'm a hell of a bloody good dancer.
Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.
The good life is one that's artistically made.
I think all good writing is a struggle. To write as well as you feel you can has to be a struggle, almost by definition, because you could always improve.
I get more people approaching me about how good I was in 'Napoleon Dynamite' than being in Coldplay.
I was not a fussy kid and had a good appetite. Only, I was not happy to eat keerai and vegetables.
I should like to save the Shire, if I could - though there have been times when I thought the inhabitants too stupid and dull for words, and have felt that an earthquake or an invasion of dragons might be good for them.
I never subscribe to the stay-at-home policy. I'm not sick of the road or sick of eating in good restaurants around the country. I like to travel.
I'm a Canadian. Outside Canada I carry the flag. Canadian nationalism isn't as insidious as American nationalism, though. It's good natured. It's all about maple syrup, not war.
Europe's the mayonnaise, but America supplies the good old lobster.
I feel that all good art is powerful and simple.
I just wanna be a good artist.
'Fright Night' I can just about deal with. Because the original is such a 1980s extravaganza. Which is a good thing. Obviously. But something like 'The Others' or anything psychological: I'm no good with that. I don't like it when there's space for me to use my imagination.
I have seen how the foundations of the world are laid, and I have not the least doubt that it will stand a good while.
I think I'm as good if not better than everyone else.
As a writer, I find it very satisfying when a lyric suddenly ties together more neatly than you expected it to. But for the listener, hearing a good lyric is not generally as exciting as hearing a great beat or a great riff or a great melody or even a distinctive singing voice for the first time.
I think it's been hard for people to understand how Islam can be a good religion, and yet the Islamists are evil. Those of us who have had experience with Islam understand this, just as we understand the difference between snake handlers and people going to church on Sunday morning.
As individuals, people are inherently good. I have a somewhat more pessimistic view of people in groups. And I remain extremely concerned when I see what's happening in our country, which is in many ways the luckiest place in the world. We don't seem to be excited about making our country a better place for our kids.
I'm pretty calculating. I take stuff that I know appeals to people's bad sides and match it up with stuff that appeals to their good sides.
I think many cooks are afraid of undercooked meats. A good thermometer is a cook's best friend.
People say, oh it's a shame, you're not nostalgic about the '60s. Well actually, it's quite good, when you think of it. Wouldn't it be sad if I was sitting here wishing it back?
A Buddhist or a good atheist is as acceptable to God as a good Catholic.
John Gilbert was perfectly willing to jump into talkies. He had as good a voice as Clark Gable. There was such a divide between the silent and talkies. There was no logic to who survived and who didn't.
I do watch what I eat, but I don't make it myself. When I eat out, I just have to make sure the things I buy are good and healthy.
I have so many good offers in my country or, let's say, in Europe. I just wait for the best offers, like I always did. And if this can be in Hollywood, why not?
While I was in college becoming a good Catholic I was also becoming a writer - one haunted by Catholicism.
Growing up with my brothers all boxing has stood me in good stead for nights like these. You should have seen some the fights we used to have in our front room.
Good things happen when you meet strangers.
