Zitat des Tages über Schwer / Hard:
I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

As New York's chief law enforcement officer, I have taken a hard line against those in state government who abuse the law they have sworn to uphold.
The margin for making mistakes has gotten much smaller. In a commodity economy, it's hard to kill off your business. You still have the mine. You still have oil wells. You can always rebuild. In a knowledge economy, if you make a mistake, you're in trouble.
Ensemble is hard to do. It's like 3-D chess.
I'm very blessed and appreciative of everything that's happened, and I'm just working hard for more opportunities to come.
You can wish as hard as you like but all that really matters is the shape you're in on the day of the race. I've always felt these really big races aren't necessarily won by whoever is the fastest. They're won by the athlete who is the smartest and in the best shape on the day.
Nobody with an IQ higher than emergency-room temperature could ever believe that 'death panels' would be appointed to nudge the elderly toward euthanasia. Yet for idle entertainment, it's hard to beat Sarah Palin's ignorant nattering on the subject.
I'm much more attracted personally to governments going their full term. It's very hard to have a fixed term election I know with ah... a parliamentary democracy, but I've always had an instinct to say there should be a fixed term.
I've seen guys come along with more ability - they've been faster or bigger or stronger - but they never worked hard to develop themselves. Sometimes I've wondered what I could have done with their talent. On the other hand, the tag that I was too small and slow made me work hard.
When a market isn't in transition, gaining market share is hard - you're fighting to take one or two points of share from competitors.
It's hard for me to get used to these changing times. I can remember when the air was clean and sex was dirty.
Let's pretend my career in music is a bell. Whether you like my music or not is up to you. But you've got to admit I rang that bell pretty hard and pretty often.
It's just as hard... staying happily married as it is doing movies.
In terms of publicity and interviews, well, it's really hard in this modern world to keep a sense of mystery.
Basically, it's hard for me to assess myself, a hardship not only prompted by the immodesty of the enterprise, but because one is not capable of assessing himself, let alone his work. However, if I were to summarize, my main interest is the nature of time. That's what interests me most of all. What time can do to a man.
I want to do my hard dives really well, I want to see what my true potential in this sport really is. I want to grasp that.
I led a comfortable life, went to good schools and was privileged in many ways, but my father worked hard. We never considered ourselves rich.
I love horror movies. It's so fun being absolutely terrified. It's damn hard to shoot, though. I didn't realize how difficult it was to make a horror movie as an actor. Physically and mentally, phew.
It's certainly possible to write fiction that isn't trivial and isn't what people would call political, but it is very hard to figure out how, because our ordinary lives have such a strong tincture now of the whole world.
Seventy percent of what I write, I throw out. I can write very easily, but writing original things is the hard bit.
In all my work I like to convey the fact that I like cooks, that it's noble toil and that it is hard.
I like to control everything, and you cannot control everything. You have to at some point say, 'I let go and I'm going to let the cards fall where they fall... For a control freak, it's hard.
It seems like the studios are either making giant blockbusters, or really super-small indies. And the mid-level films I grew up on, like 'Back to the Future' and all those John Hughes movies, the studios aren't doing. It's hard to get them on their feet.
My hard work and excellent training entitled me to be a better actress than some of my competitors.
I could throw pretty hard. I might strike out 16 guys, but I might walk 10. I mean, I was wild.
Work hard. Laugh when you feel like crying. Keep an open mind, open eyes and an open spirit.
I've never had a treehouse because I live in New York City. It would be a little bit hard to fit a treehouse in a New York City apartment.
Getting used to the studio and everything was fun, we freaked about alot. I was working very hard then.
I wanted to make a movie, because the whole life of the movies appealed to me. You work hard for three or four months, then you don't work at all for a couple of months.
Hard work opens doors and shows the world that you are serious about being one of those rare - and special - human beings who use the fullness of their talents to do their very best.
It was from them that I learned that hard work in stable surroundings could yield rewards, even if only in infinitesimally small increments.
Paradise Lost is a book that, once put down, is very hard to pick up again.
I'd never tried as hard with anything as I did with 'The Office,' and it was one of the things I'm proud of. I wasn't trying to be famous or a comedian, but this opportunity came along when I was 38 or 39. It came late, and I couldn't have been prouder of it.
To be a film-maker, you have to lead. You have to be psychotic in your desire to do something. People always like the easy route. You have to push very hard to get something unusual, something different.
We have a hope of succeeding if we learn from our past mistakes and pull together to make the hard choices.
