One of the reasons people find me a believable actor is that I don't seem like one of the gods from Olympus. I seem like someone who was lucky enough to be let into Olympus.
Presidents have a right to certain prerogatives, including the expectation of a certain deference. He's the president; this is history. But we seem to have come a long way since Ronald Reagan was regularly barked at by Sam Donaldson, almost literally, and the president shrugged it off.
I seem to be constantly confronted by theater professionals who are more or less annoyed by the prospect of structure.
Advertising as the printed form of selling would seem... ultimately to be justified in so far as it serves as a means of increasing legitimate human wants, as an agency of fair and economic competition in the distribution of goods, and as a stimulant to social progress.
Poetry has always been made to seem kind of cultish. But the truth is, everybody really loves it! It's much more mainstream than anyone thought.

We still seem to trigger that intensity in people, which was quite incredible.
States seem to have a natural life cycle, and anything can occur to change them into something else, and that something might be no bad thing.
And I think that what is of concern is that they seem to be bringing skills from the scientific world into the interrogation room in a way that begs a lot of questions about whether it's ethical.
Fashion is the science of appearance, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.
We seem to want one vehicle to carry people and soccer balls and hay bales.
I thought there would be more time in my trailer to write during 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' but I seem to be always flying in a harness and conquering supervillains instead.
When we can find some humor in our upsets, they no longer seem as large or as important as they once did.
'Intelligent Design,' the relabeled, repackaged form of American creationism, has always had a problem. It just can't seem to produce any evidence.
The main reason why it is profitable to establish a firm would seem to be that there is a cost of using the price mechanism. The most obvious cost of 'organizing' production through the price mechanism is that of discovering what the relevant prices are.
The mere process of growing old together will make the slightest acquaintance seem a bosom friend.
I found out a long time ago that if I didn't have a good story for a song, I could just make one up! Now it seems over half the stories in my show are made up. The funny thing is, those seem to be the ones that resonate the most with the audiences.
There'll always be that prep in me that I can't seem to get rid of.
It seems people are more willing to let other people control their minds now and recreational drug use doesn't seem to have that same renegade sense of adventure that it once did.
I think enslavement has evolved to what may seem appropriate to this day's generation. Modern enslavement is imprisonment.

I have found that all of my memories seem to need a place and that a good part of what we think of as explicit memory has to do with location.
We have come to expect campaigns to be mean and stupid and politicians to be unresponsive, self-seeking and for sale to the highest bidder. We make jokes about our vice president, and all we ask of a president is that he be likeable. We seem to have given up on the Pentagon's corrupt use of our tax dollars.
I seem to smell the stench of appeasement in the air.
In virtually every organization, regardless of mission and function, people are frustrated by problems that seem unsolvable.
After being in one movie, it didn't seem like that would be my life. I had done several jobs, briefly. I'd been a shipping clerk, I worked in a copy shop, I didn't think the acting was going to go on and on.
If one can judge from the letters that I receive, it would seem that there are many thousands of children who would like me to speak or to read to them.
We don't seem to be able to check crime, so why not legalize it and then tax it out of business?
Looking out at the ocean, it's easy to feel small - and to imagine all your troubles, suddenly insignificant, slipping away. Earth's seven oceans seem vast and impenetrable, but a closer look tells another story.
