You may have even an ex-wife or an ex-husband, but you can never have ex-children.
Unless a man undertakes more than he possibly can do, he will never do all he can do.
I never set out to be a role model, but I guess parents like it because I am dedicated to school.
My happiness is not dependent on others; it comes from within. Spiritual growth in a person is never encouraged, but it is important. I don't know why people want to judge others instead of doing their own thing. I firmly feel that I don't need to follow or live according to other people's rules. I like living life the way I want to.
I've never had friends, and I don't like to be around big groups of people.
The dividing line between wish and need was never clear.
My family never had a business background. We are artistes.
The absent are never without fault, nor the present without excuse.
There's this thing in Hollywood about the sympathetic character and likability. I've never understood that because the people I love most in my life are not likable all the time. My wife is not always likable. I'm certainly not always likable. My dad is not always likable. We're human beings.
You should never rely on interviews with musicians as being factual. Most of them are mangled and even have made up stuff in them, that is to say, made up stuff by the writer or editor.
I was never a fanatical movie person.
Never get caught acting.
Why do two colors, put one next to the other, sing? Can one really explain this? no. Just as one can never learn how to paint.
I used to get a haircut every Saturday so I would never miss any of the comic books. I had practically no hair when I was a kid!
When you live in a place, you're not just taking from it, you're contributing to it. In America I would never be able to make myself a person who could contribute. I wasn't interested in that society; I was interested in this society.
Ben Henderson, he had never been knocked out before fighting me.
I was the kid who never won the races... I wasn't on the list of the high-achieving.
I have never retired - I have averaged 40 working weeks a year since 1933.
As a girl, I had zero interest in the stove. I've always had a healthy appetite, especially for the wonderful meat and the fresh produce of California, but I was never encouraged to cook and just didn't see the point in it.
I never took banned substances, but I have been courted by doctors who wanted to improve my blood in the laboratory. My mother always put them on a flight.
You don't miss what you never had.
The right algorithm is to put off seeking funds for as long as physically possible. And in an ideal world, a startup would never have to seek funds at all.
I've always been attracted to things that are taboo. I've never been afraid to go to that dark place.
I didn't actually know what a vegetarian was until I was 13 years old. I know in this day and age it's hard to believe that, but I think because I grew up on a farm, I wasn't indulged in magazines, newspapers, Internet, television. And so, for some reason, I was never exposed to what a vegetarian was.
Oh, I had my gothy phase, but I was never a troublemaker or anything like that. I was a little bit introspective, a little bit morbid. I was small for my age, so I was bullied and that kind of stuff.
For days on end, I avoid the Web, never logging in until about two or three, after I've written all morning. On a good week, I don't go online till after Wednesday, so four or five days might lapse without my checking e-mail.
Charlie and I were never blessed with children.
I worked for Xerox for 4 years and after that I knew I was never going to be a corporate person. It wasn't my environment.
My biggest ambition is never to be bored. I'm not aggressive enough to strongly run after being an actress.
Never can the innate power of a work be hidden or locked away. A work of art can be forgotten by time; it can be forbidden and rejected but the elemental will always prevail over the ephemeral.
Evening is a time of real experimentation. You never want to look the same way.
Well, I'll tell you something, this wedding is something that I will always, always cherish. It was a show of love and support and kindness like I'd never seen from the people, and that's who I entertain. I entertain the people.
Oh, yes, that never happened to me in my life before. It was a risky film, and I warned the producer.
Avant-garde architects have never been able to depend on the support of the establishment, since the customary patrons of this most conservative and slowly moving art form have historically been resistant to innovation and experiment.
Milosevic will never stop, because he is fighting for personal power in Serbia. The only way to stop him is cutting the functioning of his war machine. He is spending $1.7 million a day on his war machine in Kosovo.
Democrats never agree on anything, that's why they're Democrats. If they agreed with each other, they would be Republicans.
