Surround yourself with smart, dedicated people – to build something isn’t a one-man show. It’s more important to have smart people who really believe in what you’re doing than really experienced people who may not share your dream.

You never really learn much from hearing yourself talk.

History never really says goodbye. History says, ‘See you later.’

There will be no end to the troubles of states, or of humanity itself, till philosophers become kings in this world, or till those we now call kings and rulers really and truly become philosophers, and political power and philosophy thus come into the same hands.

I go to church every Sunday, which is like going to the gas station once a week and really, really filling up.

Happiness, the feeling of positivity, really is the foundation of productivity.

Sex keeps me in shape. I don’t diet, I eat what I like. I love Mars bars and I smoke and drink. But I love running off in the middle of the day to make love. It really burns up calories.

Lisa Snowdon
If you learn from defeat, you haven’t really lost.

This confidence is not something that happens overnight. I have been working on it for a long time. I look in the mirror and do affirmations: ‘You are bold. You are brilliant. You are beautiful.’ If my lower pooch is really popping out that day, I look at it and say, ‘Pooch, you are cute!’

I was really too honest a man to be a politician and live.

The past is the past, but if you’re overanalyzing or trying to repeat it, you’re gonna get stuck. I just had a wonderful youth, and I loved everything about it, so I really try and hang on to it.

A positive attitude can really make dreams come true – it did for me.

The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man.

I can’t really describe my sound.

Mystical references to society and its programs to help may warm the hearts of the gullible but what it really means is putting more power in the hands of bureaucrats.

There’s nobody that’s ever really been able to take care of me. Johnny did for a bit. I believed what he said. Like if I said, ‘What do I do?’ he’d tell me. And that’s what I missed when I left. I really lost that gauge of somebody I could trust.

The secret of living a life of excellence is merely a matter of thinking thoughts of excellence. Really, it’s a matter of programming our minds with the kind of information that will set us free.

Fame itself… doesn’t really afford you anything more than a good seat in a restaurant.

Secularism is categorically not saying that the religious may not speak out publicly or have a say in public life. It is about saying that religion alone should not confer a privileged say in public life, or greater influence on it. It really is as simple as that.

Food is a lot of people’s therapy – when we say comfort food, we really mean that. It’s releasing dopamine and serotonin in your brain that makes you feel good.

Brett Hoebel
We go to the theater to be entertained, but if what is left after you watch the movie is a sort of eye-opening perspective on some social issues, then it can be a really powerful piece of art.

People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware.

My moms always told me, ‘How long you gonna play the victim?’ I can say I’m mad and I hate everything, but nothing really changes until I change myself.

I was a really lousy artist as a kid. Too abstract expressionist; or I’d draw a big ram‘s head, really messy. I’d never win painting contests. I remember losing to a guy who did a perfect Spiderman.

Jean-Michel Basquiat
You only find what you are looking for, really, if the truth be known.

Mary Leakey
Survival can be summed up in three wordsnever give up. That’s the heart of it really. Just keep trying.

You get this overview effect where you realize how small we are and how fragile our planet is and how we’re really all in it together. You don’t see borders from space, you don’t see diversity and differences in people on Earth.

I’m really quite simple. I plant flowers and watch them grow… I stay at home and watch the river flow.

I don’t care too much what happened in the past. I prefer to focus on what is coming next and I am really looking forward to it.

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

When you’re a liar, a person of low moral fortitude, really any explanation you need to be true can be true. Especially if you’re smart enough. You can figure out a way to justify anything.

Samuel Witwer
We live in a world with fake news being put out there. You don’t really know what to trust, and it’s a real danger to society.

As a person, he was wonderful. He really was a great person. He was full of life. He had a great sense of humor. Very talented, of course, but very caring to his parents. There was a very endearing quality about Elvis.

It is what a man thinks of himself that really determines his fate.

When liberty is mentioned, we must always be careful to observe whether it is not really the assertion of private interests which is thereby designated.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
I like to shower for a really long time; that’s a distraction-free zone for me.

Maori get pigeonholed into the idea they’re spiritual and telling stories like ‘Whale Rider‘ and ‘Once Were Warriors,’ quite serious stuff, but we’re pretty funny people, and we never really have had an opportunity to show that side of ourselves, the clumsy, nerdy side of ourselves, which is something I am.

Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you’re really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I’ve got a few missing.

I’ve worked really hard to bring something more to ‘pretty girl‘ roles over the years. I consider it a challenge.

There is nothing better than getting shot at and missed. It’s really great.

You can never take your reputation back. There really is nothing as powerful as a good reputation.

Cooking is all about people. Food is maybe the only universal thing that really has the power to bring everyone together. No matter what culture, everywhere around the world, people get together to eat.

Now, I don’t sweat the small stuff, just the things that really matter.

Perhaps one of the only positive pieces of advice that I was ever given was that supplied by an old courtier who observed: Only two rules really count. Never miss an opportunity to relieve yourself; never miss a chance to sit down and rest your feet.

Edward VIII
The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.

We’re all caught up in circumstances, and we’re all good and evil. When you’re really hungry, for instance, you’ll do anything to survive. I think the most evil thing – well, maybe that’s too strong – but certainly a very evil thing is judgment, the sin of ignorance.

I don’t know about everyone else, but I really loved lunch and recess because it was an opportunity to get carried away with your imagination.

Dichen Lachman
Surround yourself with really good people. I think that’s an important thing. Because the people you surround yourself are a reflection of you.

I learned patience, perseverance, and dedication. Now I really know myself, and I know my voice. It’s a voice of pain and victory.

To err is human, but to really foul things up you need a computer.

Paul R Ehrlich
It has been great journey from where I have started to where I am today. I am really blessed with God’s grace.

It is usually people in the money business, finance, and international trade that are really rich.

Basically I wake up in the morning and I think everything’s going to be great. I’m really kind of optimistic, and I look forward to a new day. I pick up ‘The New York Times,’ and I look at the front page and realize that once again I’m wrong. I start to fixate on stuff.

There are two ways to go when you hit that crossroads in your life: There is the bad way, when you sort of give up, and then there is the really hard way, when you fight back. I went the hard way and came out of it okay. Now, I’m sitting here and doing great.

Find something that you’re really interested in doing in your life. Pursue it, set goals, and commit yourself to excellence. Do the best you can.

It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.

e e cummings
I have discovered in life that there are ways of getting almost anywhere you want to go, if you really want to go.

You can’t make someone learn something – you really can’t teach someone something – they have to want to learn it. And if they want to learn, they will.

Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.

It’s funny because I’ve made a living off of words, but words get in the way of what you really want to say.

In all our contacts it is probably the sense of being really needed and wanted which gives us the greatest satisfaction and creates the most lasting bond.

We came from nothing really. One house. Ten people. Even days the lights was off. The worst days was not eating. Surviving off rice and toast.

I think you need to go through some stuff to really appreciate life and understand what it means to persevere, overcome and have faith. I think those tough times make you a stronger person.

Judith Hill
High expectations are really intimidating.

I don’t regret what I’ve been through. I’ve had ups and downs, super highs and some really low lows. I’ve been so blessed that I could never say, ‘I wish this didn’t happen.’ It’s part of who I am. There’s nothing in my life that’s so ugh.

You can never lose anything that really belongs to you, and you can’t keep that which belongs to someone else.

Edgar Cayce
There is a difference between happiness and wisdom: he that thinks himself the happiest man is really so; but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally the greatest fool.

The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter.

Don’t walk through life just playing football. Don’t walk through life just being an athlete. Athletics will fade. Character and integrity and really making an impact on someone’s life, that’s the ultimate vision, that’s the ultimate goalbottom line.

I’m just going to say I’m not gay. I really, really like women. That’s all I can really say about that.

I’ve been to Disneyland, like, 10 times. I’m getting really tired of Disneyland.

I never think of yesterday. Can’t do anything about it. I’m a positive guy. When you really deep down look at it, we go to bed every night, get up every morning, stay here for 70 or 80 years, and then we die.

If you are really thankful, what do you do? You share.

I want people to really recognize that this is what I am naturally good at: I’m really good at making music and describing your feelings vicariously through my experiences, through my past and my future. I want people to relate to me in multiple ways and be versatile in my music.

When I started out, everyone seemed to be adopting these names… Johnny Rotten, Sid Vicious. I wasn’t really Rotten or Vicious or Nasty, so I wanted something a bit more funny – yet something that seemed real rock ‘n’ roll… something that acknowledged my ambition.

Billy Idol
I’ve never really tried to copy anyone; I like to have my own style.

Liam Aiken
The evening is really hard for me. I have to force myself not to eat.

I don’t really think I am the most beautiful woman in the world at all. If I can create some illusion to that effect – and it seems I have – then that is what spells success to me.

Jayne Mansfield
If you really want to get along with somebody, let them be themselves.

I grew up in a time when women didn’t really do comedy. You had to be homely, overweight, an old maid, all that. You had to play a stereotype, because very attractive women were not supposed to be funny – because it’s powerful; it’s a threat.

Sometimes you have to go up really high to understand how small you really are.

You may have heard the world is made up of atoms and molecules, but it’s really made up of stories. When you sit with an individual that’s been here, you can give quantitative data a qualitative overlay.

William Turner
Create a ladder of values and priorities in your life, reminding yourself of what really matters to you.

When I’m in Brazil, I’m not Brazilian at all; I am a gringo. And then when I’m in England, I’m not really English, but when I lived in Canada, I was considered too English. So I never really felt like I clicked somewhere or that I belonged to one place.

I was a shy kid but also very mischievous. Because I looked super innocent, no one could really call me out on my pranks.

I’m the kind of person who doesn’t really focus on more negativity. I’m a positive person, and I look at things in a positive way.

If we can understand that death is not the end but is really a transition into the next life, the great part of life, that frees us up into receiving God’s courage and his help.

I am really surprised bitcoin isn’t more popular in India, given the strong gold culture here. I call it Gold 2.0. It has all the attributes other than the fact that it isn’t tangible, and tangibility is less important in the digital age.

I like to show my ability on the field. I’m not one to show off with words. I’m really looking forward to the chance. I’m a calm goalkeeper, and above all, I’ve got a real desire to win. When I get on the pitch, I give everything for the team, everything for the shirt.

A cute outfit can really make your day. If I wear something I look good in, my mood just goes way up.

Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than the one with all the facts.

The thing is, we live in a contemporary world, and being able to make yourself the best person you can possible be can be difficult. But as long as you’re trying to figure it out, and you’re really looking in the right direction, everything’s going to be all right.

Nothing that you have not given away will ever be really yours.

As you become more clear about who you really are, you’ll be better able to decide what is best for you – the first time around.

Digital communication is completely different from in-person, face-to-face conversations. One will give you surface insights, and the other really gives you depth.

If you want to relax, watch the clouds pass by if you’re laying on the grass, or sit in front of the creek; just doing nothing and having those still moments is what really rejuvenates the body.

I really like milk. I’m a dairy queen.

I really want to go to Harvard; it’s just a matter of timing.

Aubrey Peeples
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart. And being thoughtful and being generous. Everything else is crap. I promise you. It’s just crap that people try to sell to you to make you feel like less. So don’t buy it. Be smart. Be thoughtful and be generous.

Challenges make you discover things about yourself that you never really knew.

Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering – because you can’t take it in all at once.

I want people to fall in love with themselves and to be really proud and full of joy for the space they take up. If someone else appreciates the space you take up, then that’s icing on the cake.

Really I don’t like human nature unless all candied over with art.

In my life I’ve gone through a lot of really hard times. I went through depression and had so many challenges that I overcame. And I overcame because I just decided to be happy.

I’ve really had two heroes in my life. My father and Ronald Reagan.

Learn to see things as they really are, not as we imagine they are.

People buy a chair, and they don’t really care who designed it.

I really love the togetherness in baseball. That’s a real true love.

Billy Martin
At the end of the day, life is about being happy being who you are, and I feel like we are so blessed to have the support system and the best family to really just support each other no matter what we’re going through.

If you’re raised with a poverty mentality, nothing is going to change it. I do know some really stingy billionaires. I come from such a generation of hand-to-mouthers.

Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works.

The problem with car dealerships is you’ve already decided what you want to buy before you even go there, and you’re really just going there to talk through some annoying negotiation.

I think it all comes down to motivation. If you really want to do something, you will work hard for it.

The way you dress is really the way you feel, the way you live, what you read, your choices. That’s what I want to put into Gucci.

You learn about equality in history and civics, but you find out life is not really like that.

Arthur Ashe
Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility.

I won’t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said.

Reggae music don’t really focus on one thing, you know. If reggae music is speaking about the struggle of people, and the suffering, it don’t mean black people. It mean people in general.

Struggle is a never ending process. Freedom is never really won, you earn it and win it in every generation.

For myself, personally, I am never really aware of timing or anything because I am passionate about what I do, so I have found that if you really love what you do, then time flies.

I really miss being able to blend in with people.

I’m not really into style. I’m more into confidence or having something to say.

As an adolescent, I was painfully shy, withdrawn. I didn’t really have the nerve to sing my songs on stage, and nobody else was doing them. I decided to do them in disguise so that I didn’t have to actually go through the humiliation of going on stage and being myself.

When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it’s your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.

I really admire Airbnb as a pioneer of the sharing economy and for building community. They’ve found an elegant way to help hosts make more money and for guests to have authentic experiences. It brings those people together in a unique way.

I always say: ‘Share your happiness with the world, give other people that happiness and let it come back,’ but some things make me question it. I don’t know if I want some people to know that I am happy. I think a lot of people want to take it away from you, and that’s really scary.

The best marriages are the ones where we can go out in the world and really put ourselves out there. A lot of times we’ll fail, and sometimes we’ll pull it off. But good marriages are when you can go home and know that your vulnerability will be honored as courage, and that you’ll find support.

From time to time, you have seminal personalities who really change the way the world sees itself – people like Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela. Warren Buffett is that kind of person in the business world.

Guy Spier
The more social media we have, the more we think we’re connecting, yet we are really disconnecting from each other.

To the soul, there is no past and no future; all is, and will be ever, in now. For artificial purposes time is mutually agreed on, but there is really no such thing.

What is a moderate interpretation of the text? Halfway between what it really means and what you’d like it to mean?

A really great talent finds its happiness in execution.

To write a good song, an artist has to drawn from reality. There has to be some spark from realism that communicates a real feeling to someone else. You have to be real. Or you have to be a really good storyteller.

Natural beauty really entices men. They will tell you this time and time again, and studies consistently prove it.

Perfectionism and procrastination have such a fine line. You say, ‘Well, I want it to be good. I want it to be perfect.’ But what you’re really doing is not doing your work. You’re putting off showing up and being visible because then you’re going to be judged, and it might suck.

I think people really underestimate the power of just wanting to do it, and hard work, and competitive spirit, and preparation.

It sounds simple telling people to work hard and never quit, but to really execute and demonstrate those principles takes discipline and faith. Those are the two factors that I believe separate the good from the great, the successes from the failures.

The Rat Pack was the piece that really kicked me out of that little funk that I was in and then Ted called me up and asked me if I wanted to be the dad in Blow.

My favorite movie is ‘Imitation of Life.’ It’s just a true love story, and it really touched me.

A lot of fashion is really inspired by vintage and it’s the forefront of fashion.

Life is a matter of really tough choices.

Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.

The moment in between what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place.

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen – that stillness becomes a radiance.

Something like bitcoin is really important because it is not correlated to the rest of the market.

I’m a blessing to whoever gets to really know me.

He was a great patriot, a humanitarian, a loyal friend; provided, of course, he really is dead.

The best part about being alone is that you really don’t have to answer to anybody. You do what you want.

Thirty was so strange for me. I’ve really had to come to terms with the fact that I am now a walking and talking adult.

Exploration is really the essence of the human spirit.

Frank Borman
My favorite things in life don’t cost any money. It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.

I think the biggest misconception about me is people really don’t know who I really am. They see the party side of me, they see the crazy side of me. But I also have a laid-back side. You know, I’m chill, down to earth. If you want to grab a cup of coffee and just talk about life, I can do that.

The biggest risk is not taking any risk… In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.

It is important for all of us to appreciate where we come from and how that history has really shaped us in ways that we might not understand.

I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.

Gold medals aren’t really made of gold. They’re made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts.

Dan Gable
There are two different things: there’s grilling, and there’s barbecue. Grilling is when people say, ‘We’re going to turn up the heat, make it really hot and sear a steak, sear a burger, cook a chicken.’ Barbecue is going low and slow.

All this talk about equality. The only thing people really have in common is that they are all going to die.

The advance of technology is based on making it fit in so that you don’t really even notice it, so it’s part of everyday life.

Nobody phrases it this way, but I think that artificial intelligence is almost a humanities discipline. It’s really an attempt to understand human intelligence and human cognition.

Boeing just took $20 billion and 10 years to improve the efficiency of their planes by 10 percent. That’s pretty lame. I have a design in mind for a vertical liftoff supersonic jet that would be a really big improvement.

A man who is not afraid is not aggressive, a man who has no sense of fear of any kind is really a free, a peaceful man.

Originality is really important.

If you really want to make a friend, go to someone’s house and eat with him… the people who give you their food give you their heart.

The most difficult thing in the world is to reveal yourself, to express what you have to. As an artist, I feel that we must try many things – but above all we must dare to fail. You must be willing to risk everything to really express it all.

How little do they see what really is, who frame their hasty judgment upon that which seems.

When you really listen to another person from their point of view, and reflect back to them that understanding, it’s like giving them emotional oxygen.

Everybody has a different journey. Everybody has a different path, and you don’t really know what to expect. All you know is to just keep plugging away, and you hope something will come through and something will happen.

To excel at the highest level – or any level, really – you need to believe in yourself, and hands down, one of the biggest contributors to my self-confidence has been private coaching.

Land really is the best art.

I suffer from low self-esteem. I had horrible self-esteem growing up. You really have to save yourself because the critic within you will eat you up. It’s not the outside world – it’s your interior life, that critic within you, that you have to silence.

There are just some really beautiful people in the world. When you’re walking down the street, or you’re at a restaurant, someone catches your eye because they have their own look. It goes way beyond what they’re wearing – into their mannerisms, the way they smile, or just the way they hold themselves.

Where would you be without friends? The people to pick you up when you need lifting? We come from homes far from perfect, so you end up almost parent and sibling to your friends – your own chosen family. There’s nothing like a really loyal, dependable, good friend. Nothing.

I figured that if I said it enough, I would convince the world that I really was the greatest.

You know, true love really matters, friends really matter, family really matters. Being responsible and disciplined and healthy really matters.

Courtney Thorne-Smith
If you go to a restaurant and you go with people you like, your food will always taste really good.

Women are capable of doing so many things these days, physically, emotionally, within relationships and career. There are so many things that women have evolved into and I feel really proud about where women are right now.

I went to a Catholic school but did not really fit in.

The easiest diet is, you know, eat vegetables, eat fresh food. Just a really sensible healthy diet like you read about all the time.

That’s the great thing about a tractor. You can’t really hear the phone ring.

One must work and dare if one really wants to live.

Country music is the people’s music. It just speaks about real life and about truth and it tells things how they really are.

Every woman needs one man in her life who is strong and responsible. Given this security, she can proceed to do what she really wants to do-fall in love with men who are weak and irresponsible.

Richard J Needham
I would love to date a chef. I’d probably get really fat, but I don’t care.

Be content to seem what you really are.

Grit, in a word, is stamina. But it’s not just stamina in your effort. It’s also stamina in your direction, stamina in your interests. If you are working on different things but all of them very hard, you’re not really going to get anywhere. You’ll never become an expert.

The eye of a human being is a microscope, which makes the world seem bigger than it really is.

I was born into a Christian family and brought up in a Lutheran church. My faith has been the center point of my life, really, since I was a child, but at 16 years of age, I fully surrendered my life over to Christ. At that point, as a teenager, I began to grasp the concept of Christ’s true love and forgiveness.

Financial support is one thing, but I always think what becomes really sacrificial is your time.

You never know what’s going on in someone’s life. You never know what’s really going on behind what they present.

Rich people never go to war. You ask a college kid to go to war, and he’s like, ‘Umm, I’m taking this sociology class, and I think war is, like, really stupid, and my roommate’s, like, half Afghani, so it’s going to cause some static.’

Age has given me the gift of me; it just gave me what I was always longing for, which was to get to be the woman I’ve already dreamt of being. Which is somebody who can do rest and do hard work and be a really constant companion, a constant, tender-hearted wife to myself.

Showing up is like 90 percent of the battle, and just make sure your hair is really cute.

We think when God speaks to us, there’s going to be a boom out of Heaven or we’re going to get some chill bumps, but I really believe God’s talking to us all the time. He’s talking to us right in here. I call it our heart, our conscience, but it’s the Holy Spirit talking to us.

There’s something really raw and exciting about grabbing a lump of clay and creating something unique out of it.

I never thought of Green Day as a punk band. Just bubblegum, really.

Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever gave myself. I don’t put it on a platform. I don’t campaign about it. It’s just something that works for me. It enabled me to really connect with another human being – my wife, Sheryl – which I was never able to do before.

When you encourage others, you in the process are encouraged because you’re making a commitment and difference in that person’s life. Encouragement really does make a difference.

All I can tell you really is if you get to the point where someone is telling you that you are not great or not good enough, just follow your heart and don’t let anybody crush your dream.

I’m kind of a good girl – and I’m not. I’m a good girl because I really believe in love, integrity, and respect. I’m a bad girl because I like to tease. I know that I have sex appeal in my deck of cards. But I like to get people thinking. That’s what the stories in my music do.

For me the best thing about winning an award is when the people cheer for your win. When you can see that the people are really happy that you are winning something, that’s the most reward thing in the world.

They say people live to be happy. If you actually think about what happiness is, it’s nothing much. When you get to eat ramen after feeling really, really hungry, that’s happiness.

They always say, ‘Time heals.’ But it really doesn’t. You just get used to it. I live life with the mentality of ‘OK, I lost the only thing that has ever been important to me.’ So going forward, anything bad that happens can’t be nearly as bad as what happened before.

I really enjoyed performing there. Dubai is a very rocking place.

Once upon a time, I was really lost. I was 18 going on 19, and I was shy. All I want to do is get money, and the way I was thinking I was going to do that was a negative route.

Most people can bear adversity; but if you wish to know what a man really is give him power.

You can’t have everything you want, but you can have the things that really matter to you.

As long as you feel good in something, it doesn’t matter what other people think. You just have to own it. You’ll never regret wearing something you really love.

I keep saying this, and I truly mean this: I think that when you experience true love, it never really goes away.

I love Australia; it was a really, really nice experience for me. It’s such a beautiful place. The people are beautiful – like, really beautiful – and they are beautiful in terms of their personalities. It’s a great place to be. It’s like you are in a little bit of a dream world.

Most of us aren’t defeated in one decisive battle. We are defeated one tiny, seemingly insignificant surrender at a time that chips away at who we should really be.

Really, running an underdog, insurgent political campaign against an opponent many folks think can’t be beat, and going out and meeting folks and talking about your ideas for America and Washington, is a lot of fun and a real privilege.

Michael Baumgartner
The sweetest joy, the wildest woe is love. What the world really needs is more love and less paperwork.

Pearl Bailey
I just change with the times. I really don’t have a say in what’s going on. Music was here before me.

Growing up, I knew I was different. But I didn’t know what it meant to be Aboriginal. I just knew that I had a really big, extended family. I was taught nothing about who we were or where we came from.

The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter – ‘tis the difference between the lightning-bug and the lightning.

I’m a big laser believer – I really think they are the wave of the future.

Quebec City is the most European of any city in North America; they speak French all the time. There is a part of town called Old Quebec which is really like being in France. The architecture is just gorgeous, food, shopping. I’d say Quebec City is the most beautiful city in North America I’ve seen.

Nothing can be more abhorrent to democracy than to imprison a person or keep him in prison because he is unpopular. This is really the test of civilization.

Does anybody really think that they didn’t get what they had because they didn’t have the talent or the strength or the endurance or the commitment?

One of my favorite things to do is to play music really loud and dance my butt off in the morning. I’ll do it alone in my apartment. You can’t have a bad day after that.

I live my life and play my music, and I don’t really seek out other people’s approval or accolades or things like that. I try to do what’s true to me, and how it all comes out is fine.

Watching your husband become a father is really sexy and wonderful.

I’m a really nice guy when you meet me, and that surprises a lot of people. I’m not that eccentric in real life – and certainly not that disrespectful. In my own time, I like to just chill out with friends and not get in people’s faces.

Do something because you really want to do it. If you’re doing it just for the goal and don’t enjoy the path, then I think you’re cheating yourself.

Social media is an amazing tool, but it’s really the face-to-face interaction that makes a long-term impact.

This is the mark of a really admirable man: steadfastness in the face of trouble.

It’s really grinding to always play out of both sides of your mind and always be thinking what will offend people. Or what won’t. But I’m strong enough to deal with that. I own that I’m freakish in my way.

Yes, well I really hope I can make a difference, even in the smallest way. I am looking forward to helping as much as I can.

You have to develop ways so that you can take up for yourself, and then you take up for someone else. And so sooner or later, you have enough courage to really stand up for the human race and say, ‘I’m a representative.’

I was born by myself but carry the spirit and blood of my father, mother and my ancestors. So I am really never alone. My identity is through that line.

I’ll always be reading a good book. I don’t have, like, specific genre tastes or anything or things that I kind of get hooked on, reading genre books or anything like that. It’s just really anything anyone kind of recommends or is going around or I hear is good.

It’s not necessary to go far and wide. I mean, you can really find exciting and inspiring things within your hometown.

I never looked at my parents’ marriage or really anyone who had been married more than 30 years and thought, ‘I gotta get me some of that!’

I’m really looking forward to seeing what life brings to me.

My favorite room in the house is the living room. We have two big couches, six recliners and over 20 pillows. It’s a really comfortable place to hang out with my family.

For me, I like to be a little bit tomboy but still look like a lady. Pretty tough. Or really, really, really pretty.

Really, the only thing that makes sense is to strive for greater collective enlightenment.

Without education, your children can never really meet the challenges they will face. So it’s very important to give children education and explain that they should play a role for their country.

What did Christ really do? He hung out with hard-drinking fishermen.

It’s cool when people know you more, but I like people to treat me regular when they see me. I take pictures. I don’t really be big on people looking at me.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things.

Nothing has really happened until it has been recorded.

I’ve prioritized taking care of my mind, having fun, and doing things that make me laugh. And eating well – as in, really good food, like steak or pasta or fresh vegetables or an amazing dessert. You know, ‘treat yo’self.’

I didn’t ask to be a role model. I don’t like that responsibility. But if you see something in me that you really adore, thank you.

I feel like I’m a New Yorker because I really know the city. I actually tell the drivers where to go – I have this bad habit, I always question the drivers. I do that all the time because I feel like I know the best way, when really it’s like, ‘Yo, man, shut up. This dude does this every day of his life.’

The past, the present and the future are really one: they are today.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

I really can’t make no wrong moves out here, because just as quick as you can get people to love you, you can get people to hate you.

You really disconnect yourself from the world being in the middle of nowhere.

So smoking is the perfect way to commit suicide without actually dying. I smoke because it’s bad, it’s really simple.

Things don’t really impress me. Memories impress me. It’s not the toys, it’s the people.

When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.

If you’re climbing the ladder of life, you go rung by rung, one step at a time. Don’t look too far up, set your goals high but take one step at a time. Sometimes you don’t think you’re progressing until you step back and see how high you’ve really gone.

People who have what they want are fond of telling people who haven’t what they want that they really don’t want it.

It’s really important to have balance, spend some time in nature, go to a few parties, enjoy my friends and really chill out.

I think the secret is really observation. Well, if you observe what’s going on and try to figure out how people are thinking, I think you can always write something that people will understand.

Sam Cooke
Wearing a turtleneck is like being strangled by a really weak guy, all day. Wearing a backpack and a turtleneck is like a weak midget trying to bring you down.

Misfortune shows those who are not really friends.

You can always enhance your natural beauty; you learn what works for your face because crazy make-up doesn’t really suit anyone.

It’s such a funny thing when you see your daughter transitioning from your baby, your little girl, to suddenly being a young woman. If you’re not really looking for it, you can miss it, and LilyRose is on that road already, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it.

Rice is great if you’re really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.

In order to get what you want, you must first decide what you want. Most people really foul up at this crucial first step because they simply can’t see how it’s possible to get what they want, so they don’t even let themselves want it.

I think that glamour is about confidence and really owning the look.

Monique Lhuillier
If there’s a book you really want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.

With rock music, the amount of power that you can generate, the intensity behind the intentions of your lyrics that you can really reflect through rock music – you can’t do that in jazz. You can’t do that with classical.

To create a new standard, it takes something that’s not just a little bit different; it takes something that’s really new and really captures people’s imagination, and the Macintosh, of all the machines I’ve ever seen, is the only one that meets that standard.

I just want to say, don’t be afraid, believe in yourself, whatever comes your way you have to experience it to really know what that is. So if you have too much fear inside you may let go of certain opportunities or chances, so trust in yourself and stick with it.

I really rebel against this idea that politics has to be a place full of ego and where you’re constantly focused on scoring hits against each one another. Yes, we need a robust democracy, but you can be strong, and you can be kind.

The internet to me is kind of like a black hole, and I never really go on it.

Everything is very black and white for me. I don’t really like playing mind games.

We’ve got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can’t just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it’s going to get on by itself. You’ve got to keep watering it. You’ve got to really look after it and nurture it.

Persistence is incredibly important. Persistence proves to the person you’re trying to reach that you’re passionate about something, that you really want something.

Norah O’Donnell
I’ve had to accept that – that everyone cannot love me. Because when there’s love, there’s hate. When there’s light, there’s dark. But it was really hard to accept as an artist that there’s a lot of people that hate me, but on the other side, there are many more people who love me. I think everyone goes through that.
