As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.

If you want to lose 40 pounds, you order salad instead of fries. If you want to be a better friend, you take the phone call instead of screening it. If you want to write a novel, you sit down and write a single paragraph. It’s scary to make major changes, but we usually have enough courage to take the next right step.

We have by far the most expensive health system in the world. We spend 50 percent more per person than the next most costly nation. Americans spend more on health care than housing or food.

In politics, you’re like a toilet seat: you’re up one day and down the next.

Doug Ford
It’s not about the organization, it’s about the fighter. So let’s put everyone to fight so we are going to know who is the best. It’s the next step for the sport. MMA deserves that and all the organizations and athletes deserve that.

If I watch ‘Gone With the Wind,’ I always find it interesting. I think, ‘What’s going to happen next? What’s that character going to do?’ But you know, you never really need to watch the films you made again. They stay inside you, always with you.

Initially, when ‘Scam‘ was released and it instantly became huge, I did feel the pressure. Everyone kept telling me that my next move will decide my career, that I had to choose wisely and be double sure of what I do next. But when I thought about it, I realised there’s no formula to this.

The heresy of one age becomes the orthodoxy of the next.

When I play in the Super Bowl, the biggest stage we have, I have to give up the first touchdown. To make it worse, I’m running behind the guy, not next to him.

They say not everyone can be MGR. I agree. MGR is a revolutionary. Not in a 1,000 years can there be another MGR. If anyone says he will be the next MGR, he is insane. But I have the confidence that I can give the government that MGR gave to the people of Tamil Nadu.

When I wrotePink Houses,’ nobody was talking about that, right? The next thing I know, you can’t see the TV without hearing commercials with ‘Listen to the heartbeat of America,’ or ‘Born the American way.’ That whole America thing now – I hate it.

I go to Vegas now, and I’m in the casino, and I’m gambling, and there’s a guy in a wet bathing suit gambling right next to me.

I feel like the thing we can do is celebrate people doing great work and create more cultural momentum and awareness that this is an important thing in the world. So when the next economic crisis hits and people are talking about where to cut from the budget, science isn’t the thing.

I think that’s the great thing about interiors is that they can be treated like a great wardrobe. Choose a sofa and chairs that are staples in clean shapes that will keep for the next couple of years or decade. Then an easy way to bump up your entire room or your interiors is accessories.

I don’t spend time wondering what might be next; I just focus on trying to savor every day.

Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse. Murphy‘s First Corollary If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the next morning you will have a flat tire.

‘The bigtime for you is just around the corner.’ They told me that first in 1952 – boy, it’s been a long corner. If I don’t hit the bigtime in the next 25 or 30 years, I’m gonna pack in the music business and become a full-time gigolo.

Ronnie Hawkins
I think it’s in our nature to try to get beyond that next horizon. I think that when we, as a species, are scratching that itch, we’re actually following an evolutionary compulsion that is wired into us. I think good things come of it.

I want to be the bridge to the next generation.

At the end of the day, we get to be parents, greeting our lovely, crazy children and talking about their day, making sure they brush their teeth, so all the tension from our day is tabled… until the next.

I want a Mini-Cooper because it’s fuel efficient, emissions efficient and all that stuff. It’s small and better for the environment. I think that will be my next car.

I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.

If you win, fine, if you don’t, you try again next year.

Guy Forget
Justice is expensive in America. There are no Free Passes… You might want to remember this, the next time you get careless and blow off a few Parking Tickets. They will come back to haunt you the next time you see a Cop car in your rear-view mirror.

I’m most proud of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me, in my life. He’s given me the vision to truly see that you can fall down, but you can still get back up. Hopefully I’ll learn from my mistakes and have the opportunity to strengthen and improve the next thing I do.

Martin Lawrence
I don’t want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant.

The United States is going to be a rich country, it is going to be prosperous, but it is not going to be able to take the lead in the next phase of global economic development.

Think about what caused the injury and how it can be prevented next time; that way, you will become a smarter athlete and less likely to repeat the same mistakes.

Kevin R Stone
I never have my CNN off, it’s on the whole day. I don’t want to be out of range of television. I’m constantly bombarded by informationSomalia one second, Haiti the next – I need that constant pounding. I couldn’t write without television. I need to have the world in my room.

I keep lot of my opinions to myself. My grandfather, who was a gravedigger, told me one day, ‘Son, the next time you go by the cemetery, remember that a third of the people are in there because they got into other people’s business.’

Investors are impatient and they are also desperate for the ‘next big thing,’ and they are not paying attention to the fact that the ‘next big thing’ can be an economic crisis that they have created by being very irresponsible with their power.

Carmen Busquets
There were many times that I took such a big hit that I was dazed; I’m not going to lie. I’d see black, but I’m still looking for the puck. Where’s the play going? I’m going to keep going. Same thing in figure skating. If I take a hard fall, I’m going to get up, and I’m going to do the next jump.

My first film was a movie shot in 1974. I was 18 on that movie set. It was called ‘Big Bad Mama.’ I turned 19 on the next movie I worked on, which was a black ‘Blazing Saddles.’ I worked in the art department. It was called ‘Darktown Strutters.’

Life is too short to worry about anything. You had better enjoy it because the next day promises nothing.

I want to be the next legend.

Maybe there’s a perception of me as grumpy old bugger who suffers from depression. It’s a total misconception. I don’t think of myself as any grumpier than the next person. I’m not even grumpy first thing in the morning.

Nothing is ever guaranteed, and all that came before doesn’t predicate what you might do next.

If I start planning then that’s dangerous because then I have a target that I’m blinkered towards and I won’t listen to the warning signs quite so much. I’d rather be in shape and then look around and say there’s a race next week and jump into that than have it planned.

Fear doesn’t enter into my vocabulary. Fear is the gateway to the next step in my development.

As a kid, I’d watch MTV and think how great it would be to have my own music videos on those shows. Now I turn on MTV and, along the bottom of the screen, it often reads, ‘Coming next… Pixie Lott.’ That’s so strange that I can’t even begin to make sense of it.

There is some risk that if the wrong regulatory regime gets adopted in the U.S., then the center of innovation could move to other countries. If blockchains are the next Internet, that would be a very unfortunate development for the U.S.

David O Sacks
Everyone says I’m like the girl next door… Y’all must have really weird neighbors!

If GE’s strategy of investment in China is wrong, it represents a loss of a billion dollars, perhaps a couple of billion dollars. If it is right, it is the future of this company for the next century.

I don’t see myself being special; I just see myself having more responsibilities than the next man. People look to me to do things for them, to have answers.

Some guys, first pitch of the at-bat gets called a strike – maybe it’s a ball off or below their knees, and it gets called a strike – and then the next two pitches, they swing at balls in the dirt, and all of a sudden, they’re yelling at the umpire about that first pitch. You just swung at two balls in the dirt, buddy.

If you have good songs and a real desire to make music, the next thing to do, instead of approach record companies, is to get yourself a really good manager because then it allows you to focus on your profession of being a musician. Then they can focus on the darker art of the record label and the music industry.

I am looking forward to being part of the E! team. This unique opportunity allows my company to take the next step in providing multimedia content.

One minute you’re a slug and the next minute you’re a hero, so you don’t know what to think.

Ed Belfour
I used to feel unsafe right in the moment of an accomplishment – I felt the ground fall from under my feet because this could be the end. And even now, while everyone is celebrating, I’m on to the next thing. I don’t want to get lost in this big cushion of success.

The thought you have now shapes your experience of the next moment. Practice shaping the moment.

Tom Barrett
You’re playing worse and worse every day and right now you’re playing like it’s next month.

Herb Brooks
In order to succeed you must fail, so that you know what not to do the next time.

It’s very rare that we play a gig and we all come off and say ‘That was great, I had a great time!’ There’s always someone that’s had a bad time. So the goal is always to achieve the next level of performing the piece that you’ve written. You’re looking for something that you haven’t even captured on the album.

Justice? You get justice in the next world, in this world you have the law.

William Gaddis
The absolute dependence of a newborn infant inspired many things in me, but it did not activate any magical knowledge about what to do for the next twenty years.

Mary Kay Blakely
I don’t think the human race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space.

Hackers are becoming more sophisticated in conjuring up new ways to hijack your system by exploiting technical vulnerabilities or human nature. Don’t become the next victim of unscrupulous cyberspace intruders.

We shall never have more time. We have, and always had, all the time there is. No object is served in waiting until next week or even until tomorrow. Keep going… Concentrate on something useful.

Arnold Bennett
I truly believe that it’s all of the hard times that make you step up to the next level, and that’s what makes you a champion.

I don’t think it’s a Western thing to really talk about intrinsic motivation and the drive for autonomy, mastery and purpose. You have to not be struggling for survival. For people who don’t know where their next meal is coming, notions of finding inner motivation are comical.

The transition from dictatorship to democracy is always very difficult, and if you read a history of any country that went through this, it wasn’t easy. And, you know, you don’t end dictatorship one day and next day you have fully fledged democracy.

Wael Ghonim
My mother and father, with my newborn brother and me in the backseat of the 1938 Ford sedan that would be our family car for the next decade, moved to that hastily constructed Army ammunition depot called Igloo, on the alkaline and sagebrush landscape of far southwestern South Dakota. I was three years old.

If you don’t believe in yourself, then who will believe in you? The next man’s way of getting there might not necessarily work for me, so I have to create my own ways of getting there.

We just started filming, and after every scene was shot, we had a rehearsal for the next one.

All my records feel like a diary of the time and headspace they were made in and ‘Black Sands’ documents this in real time for me. A transition of falling in love with beatmaking again. An appreciation of a place and time and an anticipation for what was going to happen next.

We make our friends; we make our enemies; but God makes our next door neighbour.

It’s hard to be clear about who you are when you are carrying around a bunch of baggage from the past. I’ve learned to let go and move more quickly into the next place.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’

Sometimes a loss is the best thing that can happen. It teaches you what you should have done next time.

If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this.

I hibernate. I hibernate until the next project takes shape in my mind.

Paolo Sorrentino
Amen is not the end of a prayer, it just gets us ready to go to the next level.

Gary Busey
Humans are creatures of habit. If you quit when things get tough, it gets that much easier to quit the next time. On the other hand, if you force yourself to push through it, the grit begins to grow in you.

Ideas excite me, and as soon as I get excited, the adrenaline gets going and the next thing I know I’m borrowing energy from the ideas themselves.

Cinema has become my life. I don’t mean a parallel world, I mean my life itself. I sometimes have the impression that the daily reality is simply there to provide material for my next film.

Talent without effort is wasted talent. And while effort is the one thing you can control in your life, applying that effort intelligently is next on the list.

It would be a terrific innovation if you could get your mind to stretch a little further than the next wisecrack.

The rate of change is not going to slow down anytime soon. If anything, competition in most industries will probably speed up even more in the next few decades.

Our cellar home had a kitchen and a combination bedroom and half bath, which meant we had a sink next to the bed. We had no refrigerator, no shower or tub, and no privacy. My parents shared the bedroom with my sister and me.

The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next.

Leaders come in many forms, with many styles and diverse qualities. There are quiet leaders and leaders one can hear in the next county. Some find strength in eloquence, some in judgment, some in courage.

Philadelphia merely seems dull because it’s next to exciting Camden, New Jersey.

I always wanted to be someone better the next day than I was the day before.

Once you achieve one goal, you should be looking forward to trying to build onto the next thing, and not just getting comfortable with what you’re doing.

Confidence is a funny thing, and sometimes that’s all you need is just that little bit to elevate you to the next level.

I like to think that today is the best day of my life and tomorrow will be the next best day of my life. And if you think that way, you’re living for the beauty of today.

We need to eradicate these terrorist groups, wherever they are. If we failed to do it, we are just waiting for the next.

I went to Vietnam during the Vietnam War to visit all the troops. We would fly into a hospital and serve mess to the guys, and we ate whatever they were eating. Then we slept there and flew out the next day to little bases where there were maybe 10 or 20 guys. Then we flew to another hospital.

We’re going to become caretakers for the robots. That’s what the next generation of work is going to be.

I’ve been a fan of The Rock ever since he first came to wrestling. Every time I went to school, I talked about The Rock. So when I finally got to meet him I couldn’t believe it! When he walked through the door, I went bug-eyed! ‘I’m standing next to The Rock, man!’ He’s huge. He’s very nice, though.

Khleo
I was 16 and got my boyfriend‘s name tattooed on me. Don’t do it. ‘Cause it hurts. The moment you do it, the next month, the next year, you’ll be broken up – trust me – and cover-ups hurt. You can show your love in other ways. Ink is not it. Write it on a piece of paper and mail it to him.

Once I realized, I’m more than just a worker, I could create my own future – because your thoughts are your reality – I realized you don’t have to work as hard. You can just sit back, breathe, think about your next move and then think of that next move as if you already accomplished it and everything’s gonna come to you.

He was so depressed, he tried to commit suicide by inhaling next to an Armenian.

The result is an empty thing. The result is I’m happy for the next two days because I get less criticism and more time to improve my team. But what satisfies me the most in my job is to feel emotions, the way we play.

We have talked long enough in this country about equal rights. It is time now to write the next chapter – and to write it in the books of law.

There is something so settled and stodgy about turning a great romance into next of kin on an emergency room form, and something so soothing and special, too.

I’m very, very serious – I’m serious enough not to take myself too seriously. That means I can be completely wedded to the moment. But when I leave that moment, I want to be completely wedded to the next moment.

If you don’t care about the guy next to you, one, you’re a terrible teammate. Two, you’re never gonna win.

Seeing friends become successful, you go, ‘I can do that, too.’ I ran with it fresh out of college. MMA was the next step.

Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it.

David Starr Jordan
Here’s my advice to my brown friends: The next time you’re on an airplane in the U.S., just speak your mother tongue. That way, no one knows what you’re saying. Life goes on.

Man is created to be God’s deputy on earth and it is important to realize the obligation to rid ourselves of all illusions and to make our lives a preparation for the next life.

I’m a Roman Catholic. Or was. I was brought up that way and used to say my prayers every night, but I don’t pray to God any more. I might use the usual phrases I picked up from my parents, ‘Oh, if God spares me next year…’ or ‘Please God…’ but they’re only phrases.

I don’t have to sit around and wait for the next movie to come along, I can go out and sing.

Every kid coming out of Harvard, every kid coming out of school now thinks he can be the next Mark Zuckerberg, and with these new technologies like cloud computing, he actually has a shot.

Always do whatever’s next.

The people are the most important element in a nation; the spirits of the land and grain are the next; the sovereign is the least.

I believe that whoever is successful should help ensure that the next generation can be successful, too.

We can’t expect the world to get better by itself. We have to create something we can leave the next generation.

A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen.

It will kill four times as many Americans as AIDS will over the next decade. I feel that what ever kind of disability God has given me, as an entertainer and as a public figure, it is so I can be a representative for others.

Naomi Judd
I enter negotiations with Chairman Arafat, the leader of the PLO, the representative of the Palestinian people, with the purpose to have coexistence between our two entities, Israel as a Jewish state and Palestinian state, entity, next to us, living in peace.

It’s our responsibility as young men to set a new precedent for the next generation.

We grow older, but we do not change. We become more sophisticated, but at bottom we continue to resemble our young selves, eager to listen to the next story and the next, and the next.

Next to God we are nothing. To God we are Everything.

The more you do, the more experience you have and the next time it will be easier to choose the right thing.

Andy Lau
I’m all in favor of the democratic principle that one idiot is as good as one genius, but I draw the line when someone takes the next step and concludes that two idiots are better than one genius.

Leo Szilard
I want to wake up next to what I went to bed with. I need a girl who can get dressed up to come with me to things, but also one who isn’t afraid to get her fingernails dirty or chip her nail polish.

To be always intending to make a new and better life but never to find time to set about it is as to put off eating and drinking and sleeping from one day to the next until you’re dead.

I was always a giver by nature. I wanted to make sure the person next to me or maybe even the person I don’t know didn’t go without if I could help it. That’s always been in me.

Legacy is not what I did for myself. It’s what I’m doing for the next generation.

I can be jubilant one moment and pensive the next, and a cloud could go by and make that happen.

Leadership is not about the next election, it’s about the next generation.

With DNA, you have to be able to tell which genes are turned on or off. Current DNA sequencing cannot do that. The next generation of DNA sequencing needs to be able to do this. If somebody invents this, then we can start to very precisely identify cures for diseases.

I can remember when I was just, like, about four years old in Compton, and my mother would have me stack 45s, stack about ten of them, and when one would finish, the next record would drop. It was like I was DJ’ing for the house, picking out certain songs and so this song would go after that song.

I would really, really, really like to be a legend like Madonna. Madonna knows what to do next, and when she’s performing, the audience is just in awe of her.

Robotics has already made significant inroads in electronics assembly, with sewing trades – traditionally many countries’ first entry point to the global trading system – likely to come next.

I love being on the road. I love that lifestyle, traveling city to city, rocking out and moving on to the next place.

Caleb Johnson
It’s such a cycle. You’ll see a rapper drop a song, and next thing you know, he’s gone.

Swae Lee
If you start focusing on the next job, then you’re probably not going to do the one you have very well.

I look at all my projects as a stair step to the next. My goal is to always get better and better.

Dread, which is closely related to fear, steals the ability to enjoy ordinary life and makes people anxious about the future. It keeps them from looking forward to the next day, the next month, or the next decade.

On my desk I have three screens, synchronized to form a single desktop. I can drag items from one screen to the next. Once you have that large display area, you’ll never go back, because it has a direct impact on productivity.

I’m tired of being thought of as Miss Goody Two-Shoes… the girl next door, Miss Happy-Go-Lucky.

Doris Day
I’m always reading the next book. Taking notes. Highlighting, researching, studying. It doesn’t stop.

There was a time when I really wanted to do films, but they didn’t come my way. I would come close and the next day suddenly I’d realise that I am not a part of the film anymore. So that’s how television happened.

As an Indian, and now as a politician and a government minister, I’ve become rather concerned about the hype we’re hearing about our own country, all this talk about India becoming a world leader, even the next superpower.

You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.

It is folly to punish your neighbor by fire when you live next door.

Be kind, don’t judge, and have respect for others. If we can all do this, the world would be a better place. The point is to teach this to the next generation.

Creating a better world requires teamwork, partnerships, and collaboration, as we need an entire army of companies to work together to build a better world within the next few decades. This means corporations must embrace the benefits of cooperating with one another.

When you a ghetto star, when you a hood star, you gonna take care of your grandmother, your mother. When you on that next level, you gotta take care of the city, the streets.

Life’s too short to dwell on things. When you go through experiences that are bad, it’s a good thing. You learn from it – become a stronger person. Life is a roller coaster, and you don’t know what’s going to be thrown at you next, so all you can do is give it your best shot.

I made a mistake by being ejected from the presidency. Next time, I will choose a Cabinet which will allow me to be life President.

Where I grew up, in Harold Hill, it was rough and it still is now. I used to live in a little council flat, next to the shops, and there was always trouble, people getting stabbed.

You can classify farmers into two major groups. One who saves seeds for the next crop and the other who purchases seeds from the market. Most of the commercial farmers like the US farmers are people who purchase seeds.

For me, stories are like Lego blocks. If I don’t put one down, I can’t put the next one down.

The first thing I do on a Sunday is five hours in front of the TV watching football, football, football. I watch my games back and pick out what didn’t go right and try to make sure it goes well next time.

The great rule of moral conduct is next to God, respect time.

Bordeaux would be naive not to recognize that Robert Parker was driving the brand equity. If the next generation doesn’t care about Chateau Pichon-Lalande, then you have a problem.

You take every opportunity you have to win a trophy. That is always the goal, and winning makes it a little bit easier the next time.

The next frontier in nutrition will be about reconfiguring diets according to individual specific physiology, lifestyle, and health goals.

I was always at my best when I was learning, when I was curious. When I had yet to see past the next horizon.

With silly stuff, it’s seventy-five percent confidence. I always tell people that it’s because I’m nervous about getting that next laugh and I need to hear it. I always want to condense a joke.

If it’s a healthy day, I’ll head to the gym, then have a steak salad at the cafe next door.

I wanted to reveal how genetic code is translated into protein. I knew a great application could be for antibiotics, since half of the useful ones target the ribosomes, but I didn’t believe I could contribute to it. It was like the next Mount Everest to conquer. It was my dream to contribute something to humanity.

How many times have your parents told you not to do things, and the next thing you know, you go do it? And you realized you shouldn’t have done it.

Organization charts and fancy titles count for next to nothing.

A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.

Health care and education, in my view, are next up for fundamental software-based transformation.

I’m very unpredictable. Very, very impulsive. Extremely. Absolutely! Sometimes I don’t know what I want to do from one day to the next. I can’t enjoy anything premeditated; I just do it as I feel it. But whatever I do is motivated by honesty.

Sharon Tate
I don’t think that the next generation should fear just being who they are rather than confirming to an expectation of what they are meant to be.

I have never chosen my next job. I focus on what’s in front of me, and serendipity steps in.

Susan Brooks
In fact, entitlement spending on programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security make up 54% of federal spending, and spending is projected to double within the next decade. Medicare is growing by 9% annually, and Medicaid by 8% annually.

Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.

James A Garfield
No, I don’t regret anything at this point. That may change on the next phone call, but at the moment I don’t regret anything.

I want to do films and have my name mentioned next to Wes Anderson and Quentin Tarantino. I don’t want my name mentioned next to other rappers at all.

I want to relate. I don’t want to just rap and go to the next album.

My favorite part of a roller-coaster ride is when you’re going up and you’re slightly scared and really excited. You don’t know what’s coming next but you know it’s going to be good. You can’t handle it, go on the carousel.

Just when you think you’ve heard it all from Team Obama, the next day brings another jaw-dropper.

I am my own cheerleader. I am the one who puts my goals, who pushes myself to get to the next goal. I don’t have someone next to me saying, ‘Here you go, now do this, it’s your next step, go for it.’

Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be president of the United States, please pay attention.

I think I’m going to put together a compilation under Disney‘s name of my songs that I’ve done for them – because I’ve done six or seven by now! The latest was for the Princess Diaries 2 soundtrack. So that’s the next thing that’s coming out.

Christy Romano
My next job after Wales, whenever that is, will be somewhere abroad.

When we launch a product, we’re already working on the next one. And possibly even the next, next one.

The next Bill Gates will not start an operating system. The next Larry Page won’t start a search engine. The next Mark Zuckerberg won’t start a social network company. If you are copying these people, you are not learning from them.

Women will only have true equality when men share with them the responsibility of bringing up the next generation.

Hollywood is not known as a culture of grace. Dog-eat-dog is more like it. People love you one day and hate you the next. Personal value is very much attached to box office revenues and the unpredictable and often cruel winds of fashion.

It would seem, therefore, that this constitutional safeguard may no longer serve its original purpose, especially when, as we learned last year, some acts of perjury may now be acceptable – in this world, at least, if not the next.

I’ve always been asked, ‘What is my favorite car?’ and I’ve always said ‘The next one.’

Carroll Shelby
What’s it like finding out Denzel Washington wants you to direct his next movie? It’s like getting a phone call from Muhammad Ali or Michael Jordan saying they want you to coach them.

I hate striking out, but at the same time, I’m much better at letting them go rather than, earlier in my career, worrying about it so much before the next at-bat against the guy. You grow as you play, and every year, I work to cut them down.

To inspire a singularity of focus, a challenge must be important to you and it must be something you feel you should do now in this moment. If it’s trivial or not time-bound, you won’t engage. So in selecting your next challenge in life, choose one that is meaningful and will demand your complete concentration.

I have nothing but the best memories of growing up in New Jersey. Of course, I grew up in a nice town, a suburb. But Tenafly was right next to Englewood, which had a tremendous amount of racial tension in the ’60s. So I was aware of the real world.

We should so provide for old age that it may have no urgent wants of this world to absorb it from meditation on the next. It is awful to see the lean hands of dotage making a coffer of the grave.

With me, traveling for work is arriving at the airport, checking into the hotel, leaving the hotel the next morning at 4 or 5 to do something like ‘The Jimmy and Jackie Captain Crazy Morning Zoo,’ doing a bunch of those in a row, then going back to the hotel, and then finally going to the club.

In politics, there is no use looking beyond the next fortnight.

Joseph Chamberlain
You could put all of Rev. Jeremiah Wright‘s angry sermons on to one loop. You could put that loop up on the big screen at Radio City Music Hall and let it play there 24 hours a day, seven days a week and Barack Obama will still emerge as the next president of the United States.

Gary David Goldberg
The humor section is the last place an author wants to be. They put your stuff next to collections of Cathy cartoons.

What’ll we do with ourselves this afternoon? And the day after that, and the next thirty years?

I abhor averages. I like the individual case. A man may have six meals one day and none the next, making an average of three meals per day, but that is not a good way to live.

It’s amazing how coke encompasses everything in your life. Addicts cannot confront life because they only think of their next hit. I ruined life for my parents, my sister and all my friends.

She looked at me penetratingly. So I suppose you can figure out what happened next.

I chose as my target the University of Mississippi, which in 1960 was the holiest temple of white supremacy in America, next to the U.S. Capitol and the White House, both of which were under the control of segregationists and their collaborators.

I work as if I were going to be the next person to need a respirator. I share in the benefits I bestow on others, and my work has enriched my life.

Forrest Bird
There’s so many cool things that happen, where you want to kind of sit back and smell the roses and say, ‘Wow, this is awesome!’ But then you’re already thinking a mile ahead about what the next landmark is, what the next goal is.

I just bought a Mac to help me design the next Cray.

Seymour Cray
Like I said, I enjoyed my time there in Indy. You just have gotta move on, get ready for the next chapter.

We must do our part to end poverty in Korea so that the next generation doesn’t experience what we are going through now.

Park Chung-hee
The bad experiences make you stronger and makes you focus on the next project.

I often feel I’m a disappointment to people because they expect me to be the guy in the books. When I sit next to someone at a dinner party I can see they expect me to be quick and witty, and I’m not at all.

I don’t really know who I am as an actor: the best thing would be to experiment with it for the next 30 years and never really find out.

I was at the tail end of the family. The next brother along was already seven years older than me. I remember growing up by myself, playing games by myself.

The supreme satisfaction is to be able to despise one’s neighbor and this fact goes far to account for religious intolerance. It is evidently consoling to reflect that the people next door are headed for hell.

Aleister Crowley
I had a blast. ‘Shark Tankembodies the American Dream. If you watch the show at home, you find yourself constantly hollering at the Sharks. Being able to sit next to them and call them out in real time was quite a privilege.

I don’t know what the next American revolution is going to be like, but we might be able to imagine it if your imagination were rich enough.

Grace Lee Boggs
There have been artists who’ve sold out arenas one year, and the next they can’t fill a theatre. There’s always more to achieve.

I would have dreams all the time about me playing in the NFL. Every day I woke up, I said to myself, you know, I’m going to work hard, you know, this day to get to that next level.

Death is just life’s next big adventure.

What makes Johnny Depp so brilliant is you truly have no idea what kind of character he’s going to play next.

Of course, we knew that this meant an attack on the union. The bosses intended gradually to get rid of us, employing in our place child labor and raw immigrant girls who would work for next to nothing.

Rose Schneiderman
Treat your kid like a darling for the first five years. For the next five years, scold them. By the time they turn sixteen, treat them like a friend. Your grown up children are your best friends.

A successful individual typically sets his next goal somewhat but not too much above his last achievement. In this way he steadily raises his level of aspiration.

Kurt Lewin
A politician thinks of the next election. A statesman, of the next generation.

James Freeman Clarke
Every scientific truth goes through three states: first, people say it conflicts with the Bible; next, they say it has been discovered before; lastly, they say they always believed it.

Louis Agassiz
When I judge art, I take my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower. If it clashes, it is not art.

I value self-discipline, but creating systems that make it next to impossible to misbehave is more reliable than self-control.

When you’re at the end of your rope, all you have to do is make one foot move out in front of the other. Just take the next step. That’s all there is to it.

Samuel Fuller
In any work you do, you can be profound one minute, and then you be superficial the next, and you can be smart and insightful and then insipid. There can be room for all that.

Listen; there’s a hell of a good universe next door: let’s go.

e e cummings
You know what it’s like to wake up in the middle of the night with a vivid dream? And you know that if you don’t have a pencil and pad by the bed, it will be completely gone by the next morning. Sometimes it’s important to wake up and stop dreaming. When a really great dream shows up, grab it.

Focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. If you aren’t sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works better.

If you’re in the game long enough, you’re going to be the toast of the town one day, and the next day you’ll be toast.

I went to Willoughby Girls High, I finished my high school certificate and then I did shorthand and typing the next year. Then started travelling and never used it since.

The first forty years of life give us the text; the next thirty supply the commentary on it.

Unlike other young actors I’ve worked with who will remain nameless, Zoey Deutch and Lucy Fry would never go out partying after work, but would immediately hunker down to start working on the reams of labyrinthine dialogue they had to navigate for the next day’s work.

I always believed in if you give your best, people will see it, and it moves to the next level. I got my first movie, and I gave it my best. Before I was done with that movie, I was offered my first feature film.

In my next life, I’m going to be a rock star. I was a ballerina in my last life.

The most important thing is to stay down to earth and keep concentrating on the next game.

I always put in my 100 percent. Once the film is over, I look at my next, because then it’s up to the audience to decide my fate.

I realized, if I don’t step into the spotlight, and the person next to me doesn’t step in, and the people around me don’t step in, then who will?

I never go outside unless I look like Joan Crawford the movie star. If you want to see the girl next door, go next door.

Joan Crawford
Every time you achieve something, you want to go after what’s next. I’d like to see my own shows grow and someday be a headliner, fill up stadiums.

I have to hit the gym. I have beauty appointments. I have to work toward my next job and maintaining my image, just like an athlete.

I wanted to be the next Dana Carvey. This was my ultimate goal. If I ever cut into a birthday cake and made a wish, I would wish to be on ‘Saturday Night Live.’ If I threw a coin into a fountain, I would wish to be on ‘Saturday Night Live.’ If I saw a shooting star, I would wish to be on ‘Saturday Night Live.’

I was very fortunate to grow up with parents who love to travel, so I traveled from a young age. My dad’s a heart surgeon and goes to conferences all over the world. By the time I was seven, I traveled outside the country for the first time. We went to Paris. The next year, we went to London, and then Brussels.

Far too many times over the next 12 to 15 years, it was brought to my attention that people who followed my exercise guidelines exactly but ignored their diet, their weight and their cigarette smoking had heart attacks at age 55.

Kenneth H Cooper
Zebra mussels like to hitch a ride on boats when they’re transferred from one body of water to another. It’s important to make sure to thoroughly clean your boat each time it leaves the water to ensure these invasive mussels are removed and that you are not spreading them to your next location.

It will take a long time, and certainly the West will remain the dominant civilization well into the next century, but the decline is occurring.

I’m 18 in this album. I’m not losing fans, and I’m not disrepecting women, but you reach the maturity of taking it to the next level with a girl. It was only necessary for me to have at least one song like that.

It is always your next move.

Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt.

Pierre Trudeau
I think a lot of contemplation happens in bathtubs. It does for me. Nothing like a hot bath to ease the tension and think about what’s going to happen next.

I think it’s important to have closure in any relationship that ends – from a romantic relationship to a friendship. You should always have a sense of clarity at the end and know why it began and why it ended. You need that in your life to move cleanly into your next phase.

You can be on top of everything, and the next minute, you’re going to be on the bottom.

I just respect people and mind my business. I don’t got time to worry about what the next man’s pockets are looking like, I gotta worry about what mine are looking like and my family.

Everything is a learning process: any time you fall over, it’s just teaching you to stand up the next time.

First you date the songs, and then you get engaged and then you marry them. They have to stand the test of time, because they are going to be yours for the next 20, 30, 40 years. So you had better choose right.

Marc Anthony
A cinema villain essentially needs a moustache so he can twiddle with it gleefully as he cooks up his next nasty plan.

Next in importance to having a good aim is to recognize when to pull the trigger.

I had this little handheld transistor radio that I used to sleep next to.

We’re on the brink of the next industrial revolution. Instead of buying things, you can make them on a printer. When you have a 3D printer, you can iterate more – what used to take months, now takes hours.

It is no exaggeration to say that the English Bible is, next to Shakespeare, the greatest work in English literature, and that it will have much more influence than even Shakespeare upon the written and spoken language of the English race.

Don’t waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window- or break down a door.

Donald Trump was in a tuxedo, standing next to his award: a statue of a palm tree, as tall as a toddler. It was 2010, and Trump was being honored by a charity – the Palm Beach Police Foundation – for his ‘selfless support’ of its cause. His support did not include any of his own money.

You don’t necessarily have to go public to get to the next level.

Jeff Weiner
Racing is a funny industry. One week you can be going terrible and the next week you’re on top of the world. So you just keep showing up: I keep working harder to get more opportunities, but what do you do – that’s life.

I’m always looking to the future and what will next be on the horizon.

Some years I’m the coolest thing that ever happened, and then the next year everyone’s so over me, and I’m just so past my sell date.

I do say things that I think will shock people. But I don’t do things to shock people. I’m not trying to be the next Tupac, but I don’t know how long I’m going to be on this planet. So while I’m here, I might as well make the most of it.

I don’t live in the past. I don’t play my old records for that reason. I make a statement, then move on to the next.

What I love about the creative process, and this may sound naive, but it is this idea that one day there is no idea, and no solution, but the next day there is an idea. I find that incredibly exciting and conceptually actually remarkable.

If I win, it’s a bonus. If I lose, the sun still comes up the next day, and it’s all good.

I’ve flown from Aspen and then to Switzerland the next day and then off again the day after. That’s the thing I love most about snowboarding, honestly – getting to travel and explore different places and meet people.

It was just the next logical step from making succinct pop songs. What do you do after that? You make pop songs that are longer and more epic, that push the envelope. Imagine your favourite song, or something that you play over and over in the car, except that you don’t have to start it over as much.

To me, we’re living in a non-linear world… But the truth is we are linear creatures. Everything unfolds one after the next. And that’s the thing we’ve become disconnected from.

We work because it’s a chain reaction, each subject leads to the next.

Charles Eames
It’s kind of hard when you’re on the road all the time, from one show to the next, from one hotel room to the next hotel room, it’s kind of hard to think about everything.

I might wear skinny pants one day; I might wear thrift shop pants the next day.

Do it again on the next verse, and people think you meant it.

Chet Atkins
We are so distracted and focused on what’s next, we can fail to see what is actually in front of us.

And I never ask what I’m doing the next day. I don’t want to know what I’m doing tomorrow. It’s much too overwhelming. So I just go day by day, without knowing.

‘Mean’ is a song I wrote about somebody who wrote things that were so mean so many times that it would ruin my day. Then it would ruin the next day. And it would level me so many times, I just felt like I was being hit in the face every time this person would take to their computer.

There were days when my father didn’t have money for food, and we slept hoping the next day something could be got from work.

Sergio Aguero
I always play the sweet girl next door.

Tiffany Dupont
I’ve always really just liked football, and I’ve always devoted a lot of time to it. When I was a kid, my friends would call me to go out with them, but I would stay home because I had practice the next day. I like going out, but you have to know when you can and when you can’t.

Education is the foundation for all we do in life, it shapes who we are and what we aspire to be. Creativity fuels innovation, and it’s what all states should strive to instill in the next generations.

Jim Hunt
It is our job, as members of parliament, to legislate with an eye to the long term future, to look over the horizon beyond the next election and ensure that as far as we can what we do today will make Australia a better place, a safer place, for future generations to live in.

If I knew what the next big thing was, I’d be doing it now.

When you look out at somewhere like Hammersmith Apollo and all those people have come just to see you on that night, it’s overwhelming. You can’t rest on your laurels. This tour’s got to be better than the last one because I want people to come to the next one.

I knew how to sell. I felt confident I could run a business. I was willing to outwork anyone. I wasn’t afraid to live like a student on next to nothing. So that meant I had absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Most English writers are not interested in change but in the social novel. That demands a static backdrop. I’m intensely interested in change – probably as a matter of self-preservation. What the hell is going to happen next?

You do what you can for as long as you can, and when you finally can’t, you do the next best thing. You back up but you don’t give up.

Chuck Yeager
If I were given the opportunity to present a gift to the next generation, it would be the ability for each individual to learn to laugh at himself.

Charles M Schulz
I am interested in the gaps between one piece of sidewalk and the next. I am interested in the things for which we don’t always have a name, and the things that are not easy to articulate – the difference between what we think and how we feel.

I wake up at 5am, by 6am I’m on the way to training. I come back and relax, have lunch, take a little nap, then train again at 4pm for an evening run. Then relax, dinner and bed at 9pm until the next day.

I think the next president needs to lead on cultural issues and experience, particularly on foreign policy.

F3 is an important step for that, and the next step has to be Formula 2, but my goal is to step up and show what I can do.

Next year, if no one gives me any work, that’s fine. I’m not going to do well anyway. I’m not an actor, I’m just exploiting this industry.

The places we’d play were full of bikers, brawlers, and drinkers coming off a day of work looking for a good time, and all these guys would be looking at me like Hannibal Lecter looking at his next victim.

My earliest memory is a picnic in the park near our house, which was next to Wimbledon Common. Why on earth we went to a park when we lived so near the common is a mystery, but it had formal gardens and lawns – perhaps it was that very difference that took my parents there.

Europe, the U.S., and their allies can defeat the terrorists of Islamic State, or ISIS. The first step is making the decision to fight back. The next step is understanding that drones and standoff missiles will not be enough. Ground troops will be needed.

Politics is the art of the next best.

Otto von Bismarck
I think everybody‘s got different methods of working which suit the particular individual. Mine is to sort of play the part, and give 100%, to concentrate and focus on it while I’m actually working, but then leave it behind until the next day.

Intuition will tell the thinking mind where to look next.

Jonas Salk
Motivation is everything. You can do the work of two people, but you can’t be two people. Instead, you have to inspire the next guy down the line and get him to inspire his people.

I can not believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.

Human relationships can get awfully demanding and unpredictable. One day you feel one way, the next day you feel something else. That affects relationships. It’s better to spend time with yourself doing the things that you enjoy.

People always think women meet us in the hotel lobby, but it’s the opposite. The majority of the time, you go out to eat with your teammates, then rest for the next day’s game. It’s not a vacation – most guys view the road as a business trip.

From the ages of five to twelve, I attended the Saint Laurence O’Toole elementary school in Lawrence, a city next to Methuen, and was taught by sisters of the Catholic order of Notre Dame de Namour. I enjoyed all my subjects there. I do not remember ever learning any science, except for mathematics.

Elias James Corey
When it comes to space, I see it as my job, I’m building infrastructure the hard way. I’m using my resources to put in place heavy lifting infrastructure so the next generation of people can have a dynamic, entrepreneurial explosion into space.

I’m into the law of attraction and quantum physics. Like cosmic ordering. It’s all about thinking lovely things that you would like in life, and feeling good about them before they manifest, so that by the time they do, you don’t want them because you’re on to your next desire.

I don’t like looking back. I’m always constantly looking forward. I’m not the one to sort of sit and cry over spilt milk. I’m too busy looking for the next cow.

One of the people that I respect the most now, a person I think has done a heck of a lot for this world as a leader, is Margaret Thatcher. She helped create a world that offers us a lot of excitement as we look to the next century.

Whether you be man or woman you will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.

If our era is the next Industrial Revolution, as many claim, AI is surely one of its driving forces.

When you’re young, you’re not afraid of what comes next. You’re excited by it.

God is to be worshipped as the one beloved, dearer than everything in this and next life.

My biggest fear is doing the same things 10 years from now. That would be a failure. It’s something you have to constantly reassess, and asking yourself what you are going to do next makes it a good, long full journey.

It wasn’t like I wanted to be the next Marc Andreessen, but it would be cool to be in the same place.

Jawed Karim
When I’ve finished one project, I start thinking about the next.

Mike Rutherford
I never look forward, because I have no idea about how any of it happened to getting here. I’ve no idea how the next five years are going to be.

I’m really bad with answering questions. Usually, I don’t even answer them. I try to find inspiration inside of the question. I think, and I jump from one beam of inspiration or energy to the next, as opposed to explaining the energy.

Tramping is too easy with all this money. My days were more exciting when I was penniless and had to forage around for my next meal… I’ve decided that I’m going to live this life for some time to come. The freedom and simple beauty of it is just too good to pass up.

Christopher McCandless
I was making a film on Muhammad Ali in 1964, and I went to Miami to film everything around the fight for the world championship with Sonny Liston. I had the good luck of flying down to Miami, and there was one empty seat, and the guy sitting next to this empty seat was Malcolm X.

Every movie you do, you find something in yourself that you probably didn’t know that you had, and a director will find something in you that you can nurture and find and bring for the next one.

The world organization debates disarmament in one room and, in the next room, moves the knights and pawns that make national arms imperative.

I think horror or science fiction is another way of telling a modern myth – it’s like Ancient Greece; it’s like kids couldn’t wait for the next ‘Orpheus’ story, the next ‘Jason and the Argonauts.’

Reg E Cathey
You have to be careful what you say in front of comedy writers because they will absolutely make fun of it in the next episode.

David Alan Basche
Moonlight‘ changed me. To see people so moved by this movie inspires me to find something else to offer. And maybe the next one touches only five people or maybe just one person. To me, you know, that would still be worth it.

If you watch animals objectively for any length of time, you’re driven to the conclusion that their main aim in life is to pass on their genes to the next generation.

No matter where you are or what you’re doing, it’s always great if you don’t have to get up and physically change the song that plays next.

It’s all about trying to be very careful about what your next role or what your next move is gonna be. It’s all about trying to have longevity in this business and make smart choices.

Next month, I will celebrate my 30th anniversary of marriage with my beautiful bride, Vicki. Our marriage has been a blessing. I have gained even more respect for the institution over the past 3 decades and will defend it against attack.

Figuring out what the next big trend is tells us what we should focus on.

You know, if I tell the press that I like long blonde hair, the next day there will be girls with long hair wigs outside waiting for me.

Andy Lau
Forget about the consequences of failure. Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.

If a scene is three pages long, quite often people break it up and do a page, say ‘cut’ then move on to the next bit, they do it in cuts. I don’t really like doing that; I like to go through it all in one organic run, then give notes afterward. A little bit more like theater.

When you are on the field as a captain, the mind is always working. You cannot relax at any point of time. You are always focussing on what is going to be the next move, what if it doesn’t work, what if the situation changes and you have to change your plan.

I put a lot into my body on and off the field that really gets me ready for the next day.

AIR was born from thinking about how rich Internet applications would play out over time and what new pieces of technology would be in demand for these to go to their next generation.

Kevin Lynch
A city is a place where there is no need to wait for next week to get the answer to a question, to taste the food of any country, to find new voices to listen to and familiar ones to listen to again.

It took us three years to build the NeXT computer. If we’d given customers what they said they wanted, we’d have built a computer they’d have been happy with a year after we spoke to them – not something they’d want now.

When I’m inspired, I get excited because I can’t wait to see what I’ll come up with next.

I work hard. I focus on myself and putting food on my dinner table before anything else. I don’t worry about other artists. Worrying about the next person in a negative way is the wrong way to be.

One good thing I’d like to say about divorce is that it sometimes makes it possible for you to be a much better wife to your next husband because you have a place for your anger – it’s not directed at the person you’re currently with.

I had a little radio next to the bed and I’d just listen to the top 10 – I mean, it was crap but I was young – and I would get up in the dark with the moon coming in through the window and I would just dance in my pajamas in the dark to the top 10. I didn’t have a CD player… so it was kind of all I had, you know?

I really believe in fate and that everything happens for a reason. There’s always a plan. Even things that happen to you that feel like an obstacle or a disaster in the moment will pave the way for your next step.

I haven’t got as much money as some folks, but I’ve got as much impudence as any of them, and that’s the next thing to money.

Honestly, who knows 100 per cent what they will do next year?

In the end, the American dream is not a sprint, or even a marathon, but a relay. Our families don’t always cross the finish line in the span of one generation. But each generation passes on to the next the fruits of their labor.

God put us here to prepare this place for the next generation. That’s our job. Raising children and helping the community, that’s preparing for the next generation.

The jury could get the case as early as next week, but the defense says they just want to introduce one last-minute load of crap.

Can’t step from one movie set to the next. Only Samuel L. Jackson can do that. All us mere mortals can’t do that!

My favorite fruit is grapes. Because with grapes, you always get another chance. ‘Cause, you know, if you have a crappy apple or a peach, you’re stuck with that crappy piece of fruit. But if you have a crappy grape, no problem – just move on to the next. ‘Grapes: The Fruit of Hope.’

I’m not doing no more ‘Flavor of Loves.’ I’m trying to grow. I don’t want to stay on the same page. You can’t stay on the same page in order to get to the next chap.

No one remembers this because it’s the whipping boy, but ‘The Single Guy’ was very well-reviewed and watched, and then the central concept became attacked by the very people who were putting it on. And then the next thing you know you’re running in fear, and everyone stops being funny.

I happen to be a pessimist, and maybe that’s a good thing because I don’t stop to smell the roses – which is not a good personal thing. I don’t stop and enjoy those moments… Always on to the next and never in the moment.

Education is our greatest opportunity to give an irrevocable gift to the next generation.

Ernie Fletcher
The principal challenge of the next phase of the Negro revolution is to make certain that equality of results will now follow. If we do not, there will be no social peace in the United States for generations.

During the next 90 days, people are going to be more open to the Gospel than in years. It is God’s responsibility to make people receptive; it is our responsibility to sow the seed.

I was four years old then, and I think it must have been the next summer that I first heard the voices.

When I was a teenager, we used to go to North Carolina with my family, and we’d all pile into, like, a beach house. We’d rent, like, two or three next to each other, because I have a humungous family.

Next to excellence is the appreciation of it.

Politics is the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen.

The way you pronounce words the Puerto Rico way, it’s not really global for music. Colombians speak some of the best Spanish in the world. So having a Colombian next to me every time I write makes my music more international.

I change my style maybe every month. I’m, like, punk one month, ghetto fab the next, classy the next. I’m just young and finding out who I am.

Momentum? Momentum is the next day’s starting pitcher.

Growing up in northern California has had a big influence on my love and respect for the outdoors. When I lived in Oakland, we would think nothing of driving to Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz one day and then driving to the foothills of the Sierras the next day.

I never talk about my next project.

I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.

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.

I get a little cranky with the whole business about kids not having attention spans. This reminds me of the usual business of thinking that the next generation is hopeless. Every generation has said that about every younger generation.

Robin McKinley
How come anything you buy will go on sale next week?

I’m really focusing now on how I can get to the next level as a batsman. How can I get even more competitive? How can I get even more consistent? How can I get better?

The Law of Divine Compensation posits that this is a self-organizing and self-correcting universe: the embryo becomes a baby, the bud becomes a blossom, the acorn becomes an oak tree. Clearly, there is some invisible force that is moving every aspect of reality to its next best expression.

Those in supreme power always suspect and hate their next heir.

I suppose that every one of us hopes secretly for immortality; to leave, I mean, a name behind him which will live forever in this world, whatever he may be doing, himself, in the next.

As soon as I accomplish one goal, I replace it with another one. I try not to get too far ahead of myself. I just say to myself, ‘All right, well, I’d like to headline a tour,’ and then when I get there, we’ll see what my next goal is.

But acting is very much a profession that is you’re hot one moment and not the next – and that is totally cool. I think that’s what I find most fascinating and most exciting about it – is that it can be gone in a puff of smoke.

Tell your kids you love them as much as you possibly can, because you’re not promised one second to the next.

The first ingredient in conversation is truth, the next good sense, the third good humor, and the fourth wit.

I exercise about 40 minutes a day, and I’ll run one day and do circuit training the next day. I live in an area where there are brilliant hills and mountains, so I get a good hill run with my dog. At home, I’ll do the circuit training with old weights, along with pull-ups in the trees and that sort of stuff.

The next time you have a thought… let it go.

I don’t read the reviews because it somewhere affects my work. If some critic doesn’t like a movie, I can’t keep his criticisms in mind the next time I am making a film. Even if someone writes a great review about my film, I don’t want to be affected by it.

The Tibetan people will need to determine who the next reincarnation of the Dalai Lama is.

My mom started smoking when she was 11. She went to the hill next door to try her first cigarette. She set the entire hill on fire, but it didn’t deter her.

I kept buying bucket hats. Next thing I knew, I felt like I didn’t look right without one.

Schoolboy Q
Half of my library are old books because I like seeing how people thought about their world at their time. So that I don’t get bigheaded about something we just discovered and I can be humble about where we might go next. Because you can see who got stuff right and most of the people who got stuff wrong.

In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.

I came in with Halley’s Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don’t go out with Halley’s Comet. The Almighty has said, no doubt: ‘Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together.’

In recurring episodes over the next couple of decades, the minority view gradually won. A profusion of factors differentiates each case from the others, including naked partisanship on both sides, but the trend has been clear.

The next time I cry about golf it will only be with joy. It’s not worth crying over golf for any other reason. After all, it’s only a game.

There comes a turning point in the life of every person when he reflects on his journey and work and ponders on the next road to take. Is this the pinnacle, the ultimate? What next?

To the next generation, your war is here; you don’t have to find it.

I like to sit around the pool, listen to music, barbecue, grill, stuff like that. Just the guy next door, I guess.

In the next minute, I will be entirely naked. In the minute after that, fully dressed.

The White House isn’t the place to learn how to deal with international crisis, the balance of power, war and peace, and the economic future of the next generation.

People need to realise what real happiness and success is, because success as an actor is fleeting. You can be up there one day and gone the next.

For the continued survival of our planet and humanity, it is crucial that certain discoveries and skills and inventions made by people over the years be passed on from one human generation to the next, from one person, face-to-face, to another.

The greatest and noblest pleasure which we have in this world is to discover new truths, and the next is to shake off old prejudices.

My mother told me once that she had her talk with God whenever she started a new sweater: ‘Please don’t take me in the middle of the sweater.’ And as soon as she finished knitting a sweater, and it was blocked and put together, she already had the wool to start the next sweater so that nothing bad would happen.

It’s a funny thing, life… as much as you don’t want the sun to come up, it comes up the next day. Life continues on and you have to make a choice in how you handle it.

Really, every day is the perfect day to boss up. Every day that you wake up is a perfect day to boss up. It’s all about continuing to put one foot in front of the next. That’s what it’s about. Whatever you think you’re going through, just put one foot in front of the next.

I hope to get out before they start football next year.

I ended up getting drafted by the Colorado Rockies on June 8, 2010 and the next day, my dad passed away, in June 9, 2010. So I’m at the biggest high of my life on June 8th. And the next day, June 9th, he’s gone.

I’m not patient at all. I avoid writer’s block by writing. I power through with a bad version, so I can move on, and usually once I’ve gotten to the next scene, I’ll discover what was missing from the bad version scene. Then I can easily rewrite it to get back on the right path.

I’ve never had a job in my life that I was better than. I was always just lucky to have a job. And every job I had was a steppingstone to my next job, and I never quit my job until I had my next job.

I don’t want to say everything happens for a reason but every day is lined up right next to the other one for a reason. The best you can do is do each day well with kindness and as a good person.

I may play the same program from one recital to the next, but I will play it differently, and because it is always different, it is always new.

When you look around right now, Nashville is kind of going through another changing of guard; you’re watching the Martina McBrides and the Faith Hills and all of them that have been the big stars for the last however many years, and the next generation is coming in: Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, those girls.

I always say I write because I have questions, not because I have answers. It’s true that you begin the conversation – that’s the role of the artist. But it’s not my job to tell us what to do next. I wish I had those tools.

If I can give something to the next generation, I want to give a message of positivity, to believe in themselves, because I think the world has just a lot of unnecessary stresses to be a certain way, look a certain way, do certain things.
