Once you figure out what respect tastes like, it tastes better than attention. But you have to get there.

When I was in high school, there was ‘Superbad’ and ‘The Girl Next Door‘ and ‘Wedding Crashers’ and all these great movies. You hope to be a part of something that’s smart, funny and in that Todd Phillips-vein. You want to make something like ‘Superbad.’ That movie was so good and so funny.

NBC had a show called ‘The Toughest Bouncer in America’ that I did. But I told them I didn’t like that term, ‘bouncer.’ To me, it’s offensive. A bouncer likes to get physical, likes to put his hands on people.

Genius without education is like silver in the mine.

We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more.

The Worldly Hope men set their Hearts upon Turns Ashes – or it prospers; and anon, Like Snow upon the Desert’s dusty Face, Lighting a little hour or two – is gone.

Omar Khayyam
Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new.

The only way to get love is to be lovable. It’s very irritating if you have a lot of money. You’d like to think you could write a check: ‘I’ll buy a million dollars‘ worth of love.’ But it doesn’t work that way. The more you give love away, the more you get.

I like to reminisce with people I don’t know.

It’s not like after winning an award, your job is done and you can relax. You still have to work hard.

Joseph Stalin
I’m just really a free spirit. You gotta be like that. ‘Cause life ain’t that complicated. It’s only that complicated when you make it that way. I just wanna wake up and move with the way it goes. If it’s meant to happen, it will happen.

Future

Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you. Love me and I may be forced to love you.

William Arthur Ward

Ray Davies
True courage is like a kite; a contrary wind raises it higher.

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

For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.

Time flies like an arrow – but fruit flies like a banana.

We forfeit three-quarters of ourselves in order to be like other people.

I can smell a liar like a fart in a lift!

Everything that happens is meant to be. It’s meant to happen like that. But sometimes you don’t know at the time that it’s meant to be disaster.

May Sarton
Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.

William Arthur Ward
A vibrant civil society can challenge those in power by documenting corruption or uncovering activities like the murder of political enemies. In democracies, this function is mostly performed by the media, NGOs or opposition parties.

The human being is a self-propelled automaton entirely under the control of external influences. Willful and predetermined though they appear, his actions are governed not from within, but from without. He is like a float tossed about by the waves of a turbulent sea.

A business like an automobile, has to be driven, in order to get results.

B C Forbes
As soon as the land of any country has all become private property, the landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed, and demand a rent even for its natural produce.

You may say, ‘Well, dragons don’t exist.’ It’s, like, yes they do – the categorypredator‘ and the category ‘dragon‘ are the same category. It absolutely exists. It’s a superordinate category. It exists absolutely more than anything else. In fact, it really exists.

There are times when one would like to hang the whole human race, and finish the farce.

The problem is that at a lot of big companies, process becomes a substitute for thinking. You’re encouraged to behave like a little gear in a complex machine. Frankly, it allows you to keep people who aren’t that smart, who aren’t that creative.

It is like the seed put in the soil – the more one sows, the greater the harvest.

The artist, like the God of the creation, remains within or behind or beyond or above his handiwork, invisible, refined out of existence, indifferent, paring his fingernails.

I wouldn’t say I have a lack of fear. In fact, I’d like my fear emotion to be less because it’s very distracting and fries my nervous system.

It only takes one person to mobilize a community and inspire change. Even if you don’t feel like you have it in you, it’s in you. You have to believe in yourself. People will see your vision and passion and follow you.

If you like gold, there are many reasons you should like Bitcoin.

You know, I looked at my face in the mirror this morning, and I like being old. My face has more content and when I train in the gym now, I am not training to be strong or handsome – just better than I was yesterday. These days the race is just against myself.

A writer without a pen would be like a duck without water!

It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.

Canada is like an old cow. The West feeds it. Ontario and Quebec milk it. And you can well imagine what it’s doing in the Maritimes.

Tommy Douglas
The eagle has no fear of adversity. We need to be like the eagle and have a fearless spirit of a conqueror!

If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.

Sometimes the poor are praised for being thrifty. But to recommend thrift to the poor is both grotesque and insulting. It is like advising a man who is starving to eat less.

It’s always hard to deal with injuries mentally, but I like to think about it as a new beginning. I can’t change what happened, so the focus needs to go toward healing and coming back stronger than before.

Success is full of promise till one gets it, and then it seems like a nest from which the bird has flown.

Like all the best families, we have our share of eccentricities, of impetuous and wayward youngsters and of family disagreements.

I have learned that to be with those I like is enough.

Words, like nature, half reveal and half conceal the soul within.

Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to quit when he’s losing; nobody wants you to quit when you’re ahead.

To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture.

Every woman is sexy in her own way. It is up to men to step up and make women feel like they are No. 1 on that list. There is no such thing as perfection.

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

Bruce Lee
People are like stainedglass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

Frank Borman
Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

The secret of happiness is variety, but the secret of variety, like the secret of all spices, is knowing when to use it.

Daniel Gilbert
I really haven’t had that exciting of a life. There are a lot of things I wish I would have done, instead of just sitting around and complaining about having a boring life. So I pretty much like to make it up. I’d rather tell a story about somebody else.

If your culture doesn’t like geeks, you are in real trouble.

A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.

Like all best families, we have our share of eccentricities, of impetuous and wayward youngsters and of family disagreements.

I’ve always said, if you treat yourself like a queen, you’ll attract a king.

Analyzing humor is like dissecting a frog. Few people are interested and the frog dies of it.

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention. To not be like your parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.

Procrastination is like a credit card: it’s a lot of fun until you get the bill.

Christopher Parker
In modern war… you will die like a dog for no good reason.

Art is like a border of flowers along the course of civilization.

We can’t have, like, willy-nilly proliferation of fake news. That’s crazy. You can’t have more types of fake news than real news. That’s allowing public deception to go unchecked. That’s crazy.

I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession.

Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, ‘You owe me.’ Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky.

Mediocre people don’t like high achievers, and high achievers don’t like mediocre people.

Culture makes people understand each other better. And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers. But first they have to understand that their neighbour is, in the end, just like them, with the same problems, the same questions.

Diets, like clothes, should be tailored to you.

A good restaurant is like a vacation; it transports you, and it becomes a lot more than just about the food.

Dad’s Jewish and Irish, Mom’s German and Scotch. I couldn’t say I was anything. My last name isn’t even Downey. My dad changed his name when he wanted to get into the Army and was underage. My real name is Robert Elias. I feel like I’m still looking for a home in some way.

It is not your paintings I like, it is your painting.

There’s nothing like starting the day with a healthy, filling breakfast smoothie.

I’m hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter. That’s what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that’s from being bright all the time, and trying to be brighter.

One of things I like about looking at pictures when you’re young and also meeting back with old friends you haven’t seen in a long time is, for me, it’s a glimpse of who I was.

Personally I’m always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.

I used to work in the cotton fields a lot when I was young. There were a lot of African Americans working out there.

Among the notable things about fire is that it also requires oxygen to burn – exactly like its enemy, life. Thereby are life and flames so often compared.

I always like a good song: puts me in a good mood.

The years like great black oxen tread the world, and God, the herdsman goads them on behind, and I am broken by their passing feet.

Sometimes I sit down and I think ‘Do I regret this? Do I regret that?’ And I feel like everything makes this snowball effect, you know? If you regret something, it’s good because it just means that it’s something that’s affected you enough for you to stop and think… There’s a reason that everything happens.

Sometimes it’s like watching a train wreck. You’re uncomfortable, but you just can’t help yourself. Some of those so-called bad interviews actually turned into compelling television.

I hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I always say ‘him’ rather than ‘her.’ Maybe it’s because of my generation, but I don’t like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent male.

I like to complain and do nothing to make things better.

I feel like whatever is meant is meant. I feel like this is already written.

I have self-doubt. I have insecurity. I have fear of failure. I have nights when I show up at the arena and I’m like, ‘My back hurts, my feet hurt, my knees hurt. I don’t have it. I just want to chill.’ We all have self-doubt. You don’t deny it, but you also don’t capitulate to it. You embrace it.

What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter – a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue.

You say to a brick, ‘What do you want, brick?’ And brick says to you, ‘I like an arch.’ And you say to brick, ‘Look, I want one, too, but arches are expensive and I can use a concrete lintel.’ And then you say: ‘What do you think of that, brick?’ Brick says: ‘I like an arch.’

Louis Kahn
I think I look really weird with short hair. So I figured if I’ve got a mustache, I think it looks less creepy with long hair. Like a wild look.

Like what you do, and then you will do your best.

Katherine Johnson
We shall not be happy unless we live like good animals, unless we enjoy the exercise of the ordinary functions of life: eating, sleeping, loving, walking, running, swimming, riding, sailing.

We look at life from the back side of the tapestry. And most of the time, what we see is loose threads, tangled knots and the like. But occasionally, God’s light shines through the tapestry, and we get a glimpse of the larger design with God weaving together the darks and lights of existence.

Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.

Grit is living life like it’s a marathon, not a sprint.

The human brain works as a binary computer and can only analyze the exact information-based zeros and ones (or black and white). Our heart is more like a chemical computer that uses fuzzy logic to analyze information that can’t be easily defined in zeros and ones.

All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.

The virtues, like the Muses, are always seen in groups. A good principle was never found solitary in any breast.

Look at a football field. It looks like a big movie screen. This is theatre. Football combines the strategy of chess. It’s part ballet. It’s part battleground, part playground. We clarify, amplify and glorify the game with our footage, the narration and that music, and in the end create an inspirational piece of footage.

I’m like an old turtle these days. I don’t run wide-open everywhere, but at the end of the day, I’ll be where I’m supposed to be.

Not like Chinese food, where you eat it and then you feel hungry an hour later.

It’s like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.

Spring has returned. The Earth is like a child that knows poems.

When ‘Top Gun’ came out, my sisters were like, ‘Oh, my God, ‘Top Gun!’ Tom Cruise!’ And I very confidently said, ‘I’m going to marry him one day.’ It wasn’t like, ‘How do I get to Tom Cruise?’ It was just, ‘I think I’m going to marry him. Why not? He’ll like me. I’m fun.’

Respect goes a long way when you carry yourself a certain way and show manners when you first meet someone. If you do that, then it’s hard for somebody not to like you.

A liar begins with making falsehood appear like truth, and ends with making truth itself appear like falsehood.

William Shenstone

Bitcoin is like anything else: it’s worth what people are willing to pay for it.

The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like men, but that men will begin to think like computers.

I don’t even call them fans. I don’t like that. They’re literally just a part of my life; they’re a part of my family. I don’t think of them as on a lower level than me. I don’t think I’m anything but equal to all of them. So yeah, they’re basically all of my siblings.

I thank God for my failures. Maybe not at the time but after some reflection. I never feel like a failure just because something I tried has failed.

I’m like a snake sleeping on a rock. I won’t bother you unless you poke a stick at me.

Pierre Trudeau
The Great Depression, like most other periods of severe unemployment, was produced by government mismanagement rather than by any inherent instability of the private economy.

Amelia Earhart
Education is a continual process, it’s like a bicycle… If you don’t pedal you don’t go forward.

I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me – like food or water.

If you’re thinking of coming to America, this is what it’s like: you’ve got your Comfort Inn, you’ve got your Best Western, and you’ve got your Red Lobster where you eat. Everybody’s very fat, everybody’s very stupid and everybody’s very rude – it’s not a holiday programme, it’s the truth.

Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

My books are like water; those of the great geniuses are wine. (Fortunately) everybody drinks water.

The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening.

Caste is not a physical object like a wall of bricks or a line of barbed wire which prevents the Hindus from co-mingling and which has, therefore, to be pulled down. Caste is a notion; it is a state of the mind.

A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs. It’s jolted by every pebble on the road.

When you’re wounded and left on Afghanistan‘s plains, and the women come out to cut up what remains, jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains and go to your gawd like a soldier.

Acceptance looks like a passive state, but in reality it brings something entirely new into this world. That peace, a subtle energy vibration, is consciousness.

I like a man who looks like a bad boy but knows how to treat a woman like a queen.

I made decisions that I regret, and I took them as learning experiences… I’m human, not perfect, like anybody else.

I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success… such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.

Love is like a virus. It can happen to anybody at any time.

A guru is like a live road map. If you want to walk uncharted terrain, I think it is sensible to walk with a road map.

I don’t blame or complain about things like the economy, the government, taxes, employees, gas prices, or any of the external things that I don’t have control over. The only thing I have control over is my response to these things.

I can say that I never knew what joy was like until I gave up pursuing happiness, or cared to live until I chose to die. For these two discoveries I am beholden to Jesus.

Malcolm Muggeridge
I don’t like to give advice. I like to give people information because everyone’s life is different, and everyone’s journey is different.

Things don’t always go your way in football: there are always good and bad times. At the end of the day, you have to have a positive attitude and a strong mentality and not let any setbacks get you down. And that’s what I’ve done – I’ve tried to keep my composure, even when things aren’t going the way I’d like.

Giovani Dos Santos
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.

A cardio workout increases blood flow and acts as a filter system. It brings nutrients like oxygen, protein, and iron to the muscles that you’ve been training and helps them recover faster.

All the women want to be with me, all the men want to be like me.

Be like a duck. Calm on the surface, but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

Communism, like any other revealed religion, is largely made up of prophecies.

I always wanted to be a princess like Cinderella.

If you are the kind of person who is waiting for the ‘right’ thing to happen, you might wait for a long time. It’s like waiting for all the traffic lights to be green for five miles before starting the trip.

Sometimes you have to do what you don’t like to get to where you want to be.

I can relax with bums because I am a bum. I don’t like laws, morals, religions, rules. I don’t like to be shaped by society.

A two-year-old is kind of like having a blender, but you don’t have a top for it.

Like all dreamers, I mistook disenchantment for truth.

Vintage is my vocabulary… like the notes of a musician.

Cooking is like painting or writing a song. Just as there are only so many notes or colors, there are only so many flavors – it’s how you combine them that sets you apart.

To make an embarrassing admission, I like video games. That’s what got me into software engineering when I was a kid. I wanted to make money so I could buy a better computer to play better video games – nothing like saving the world.

You don’t appreciate life until you get to the other side. Like lying in a hospital bed.

I don’t trip on that much. I just like to enjoy life and be happy.

I feel like my style’s always been influenced by ‘less is more.’ The coolest styles are kind of simple and classic, like a white T-shirt and jeans. Maybe you have a cool belt and cool shoes, but everything else you keep simple.

If you live among wolves you have to act like a wolf.

Nikita Khrushchev
I moved from Kentucky to Miramar, Florida, at about 8. I think I was in second grade. I still had my Southern accent, and down there, you got to experience a melting pot in full fury. All the kids I hung out with were, like, Sicilian kids from Jersey and New York.

My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don’t think about it, I just have it.

Telling a teenager the facts of life is like giving a fish a bath.

Those are my principles, and if you don’t like them… well, I have others.

John Webster
Life is a lot like jazz… it’s best when you improvise.

Our incomes are like our shoes; if too small, they gall and pinch us; but if too large, they cause us to stumble and to trip.

Now, as a nation, we don’t promise equal outcomes, but we were founded on the idea everybody should have an equal opportunity to succeed.

Charity bestowed upon those who are worthy of it is like good seed sown on a good soil that yields an abundance of fruits.
