One of the reasons I don't have a TV is, if I have a TV, then I don't do other things. At least for me, I'd rather just download the programs I want to watch and watch them, or I can buy them on DVD.
I never buy what someone says is 'in' or a 'must-have.' I buy what makes me happy.
So if I want to buy a light in a shop and I don't find a light that I like, I think to myself what would I like? What would I like to buy? Then I started to imagine and design it for myself a lot of the time.
Almost the first thing I did when I became ill was to buy a truly good television set.
Never give anyone the advice to buy or sell shares, because the most benevolent price of advice can turn out badly.
Disco was brand new then and there were a few jocks that had monstrous sound systems but they wouldn't dare play this kind of music. They would never play a record where only two minutes of the song was all it was worth. They wouldn't buy those types of records.
If you are planning to save the planet, it will not be Tesla that will do it, since only a finite number of people can afford to buy one, even a $35,000 Model 3.
I don't buy into this, 'Oh, poor us. We've got tough budget problems.'
I marketed pens - on the phone. But the beauty of the gig was that you had to call these strangers and say, 'Hi, how ya doing?' You made up a name, like, 'Hey, it's Edward Quartermaine from California. You're eligible to receive this grandfather clock or a trip to Tahiti.' You promise them all these things if they buy a gross of pens.
It's a sad state when more people retweet than buy records.
The cat does not offer services. The cat offers itself. Of course he wants care and shelter. You don't buy love for nothing.
We sometime didn't get enough to buy oats for our horses. Most banks had very little money in them.
Mattresses! Beautiful! Let's go buy a couple of mattresses. Give 'em to people for their birthday.
I am lucky, that is all. Lucky because there are a lot of people - producers, directors, people who buy tickets - who put confidence in me.
Our whole society controls how much you can drink, how many pills you can buy; we have controls we accept on everything else in this society - except guns. Those things are all acceptable to us. But with guns, most people will not even discuss restrictions.
I never felt hard done by and never wanted for anything, but I grew up in a wealthy area where I saw people being handed things on a plate. So it made me want to earn some money and be able to buy things for myself.
Mum loves me being famous! She is so excited and proud, as she had me so young and couldn't support me, so I am living her dream, it's sweeter for both of us. It's her 40th birthday soon and I'm going to buy her 40 presents.
If a kid is old enough to drive a car or buy a gun, isn't he old enough to be held personally responsible for what he does with his car or gun? Or if he's a teenager, should someone else be blamed because he isn't as enlightened as an eighteen-year-old?
As a small business owner, you may not have the luxury to throw good money after bad, but if you can ascertain the 'why' of the failure, you can draw some significance from it and then turn it into something that clients will buy.
Is it ever worthwhile to buy a review? Not in my opinion. With independent paid review services, quality can be a problem; plus, there are plenty of non-professional book review venues out there that will review for free.
If I buy a game on Steam and I'm running it on Windows, I can go to one of the Steam machines and already have the game. So you benefit as a developer; you benefit as a consumer in having the PC experience extended in the living room.
Buy old masters. They fetch a better price than old mistresses.
So mightiest powers buy deepest calms are fed, And sleep, how oft, in things that gentlest be!
I find it fascinating to see the fact that women want to buy things that they see on men.
My first rule of consumerism is never to buy anything you can't make your children carry.
I know it's exciting to get an item on sale. But if you're buying for the discounts and not because it's something you need or want - either for yourself or for a gift - you're going about things the wrong way. Think of it this way: Saving 30% is great, but if you didn't buy at all, you'd be saving 100%, which is even better.
As the saying goes, even a broken clock is right twice a day; that doesn't mean you should run out and buy one.
Buy what thou hast no need of and ere long thou shalt sell thy necessities.
We're trying to fix this with the plan we've been floating. Now, the law says the transition ends in 2006 or - and the 'or' is the only part that matters - 85 percent of Americans go buy a digital TV.
If you build your own chair, there is a lot of things that happen. You could probably buy a nice chair for less money than a chair that you built yourself, and it might even look better, but if you build that chair, you're going to take care of it and maintain it because it's your chair. If it breaks, you know how to fix it.
We should make it so that young people pay their fair share for health care, and nothing more. And instead of Washington telling us what to buy, let's get back to letting every American choose the plan that's best for them and their family.
The last thing I would attempt to do is to buy clothes for a child I didn't know well.
It's cheaper to buy a house and finance it than it is to rent in many markets.
You can just go to a magic shop or magic builder and buy what most magicians do, but that's not what I'm about. With 'Mindfreak' on television and 'Believe' live, I want to bring things that people have never seen before. That process is very difficult. It's very challenging, and you never know how long it's going to take - months or years.
I'm not about to go out and buy a snake for a pet. I mean, I may have faced a few fears but I'm not insane.
I'd love to sell out completely. It's just that nobody has been willing to buy.
