I love cooking; it's a very good way to get your mind off things.
I'm a quite serious actor who doesn't mind being ridiculously comic.
For so long as the Jew has even one ally, he will be convinced - in his smallness of mind - that his salvation came from that ally. It is only when he is alone - against all of his own efforts and frantic attempts - that he will, through no choice, be compelled to turn to G-d.
I don't mind being a symbol but I don't want to become a monument. There are monuments all over the Parliament Buildings and I've seen what the pigeons do to them.
There's no changing your mind about whom you love. That's part of the tough thing about being in love - it's sort of undeniable.
I would say that I quite consciously rely on my obsessions in all my work, that I deliberately set up an obsessional frame of mind. In a paradoxical way, this leaves one free of the subject of the obsession.
There is talk that badminton may not make it as a sport in the 2020 Olympics. We must bear in mind that other sports are strongly lobbying to be included.
Some people might hate someone who is successful, but in Peru, they love it! It makes them feel they can be successful, too. That's a good state of mind for a country that wants to come out of poverty.
They tell you that you'll lose your mind when you grow older. What they don't tell you is that you won't miss it very much.
There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.
I don't remember what was going through my mind, but what was going through my body was fear and terror. I had been on the road with Johnny and working gigs and playing a lot of the organ clubs.
I'm reading more than ever. I used to find it tedious, but now it's like my little friend - it takes my mind off things.
When people help me out, even with something like a move or a ride to the airport, I'm always thinking 'Are you sure it's okay? Are you sure you don't mind?'
Plant the seed of desire in your mind and it forms a nucleus with power to attract to itself everything needed for its fulfillment.

I believe that every human mind feels pleasure in doing good to another.
It is wise to keep in mind that neither success nor failure is ever final.

I think of my body as a side effect of my mind.
The man or country that fights priestcraft and priests is to my mind striking deeper for freedom than can be struck anywhere.
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
In my opinion, the power of the mind in sport is vital. If you can overpower those physical risks mentally, you can get your body round it physically. I've made my body do things because of my mind that it shouldn't have been able to do.
A man who is 'of sound mind' is one who keeps the inner madman under lock and key.
We see things in this material world, wherein our bodies dwell, only because our mind through its attention lives in another world, only because it contemplates the beauties of the archetypal and intelligible world which Reason contains.
I do have a family, and obviously I spend as much time as I can with them. Though even when I'm with my family, my mind tends to drift toward baseball.

I don't design for myself. I design something keeping in mind that it has to please a lot of women.
Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life.
To resist the frigidity of old age, one must combine the body, the mind, and the heart. And to keep these in parallel vigor one must exercise, study, and love.
We live in a democracy. We have this extraordinary opportunity to use our mind and say what we think, speak as we think. Sometimes what we say is objectionable to other people. But that is part of a free society.
The irony is that the more we fight age, the more it shows. Paint on a 50-year-old face brings to mind a Gilbert and Sullivan comic figure. Smooth the cheeks, and suddenly the ear lobes and hands look out of place. Do we run around in October, painting the gold leaves green?
In my mind, I still think - and wish - that I'm going to be a journalist or a writer. That's been my dream job my entire life.
Get this in mind early: We never grow up.
Anyone who tries to write a memoir needs to keep in mind that what's interesting to you isn't necessarily interesting to a reader.
