Famous Quotes & Sayings

Rob Zombie

I know when something is done and when it isn't. There's been times working on movies when they [moviemakers] lock in a release date and so you're stuck to that schedule. But sometimes you're still editing and you feel like you're not really done, but they're sort of releasing the movie anyway - that's kind of depressing.

Rex Harrison

A woman who utters such disgusting and depressing noise has no right to be anywhere, no right to live. Remember that you are a human being with a soul and the divine gift of articulate speech, that your native language is the language of Shakespeare and Milton and The Bible. Don't sit there crooning like a bilious pigeon.

Ryan McGinley

I have absolutely no interest in creating depressing images.

Ron Blomberg

Watching National League pitchers trying to hit or even bunt is depressing.

Woody Allen

The process of making films is so technically demanding that it's a distraction. You don't spend your time thinking about the philosophical content, which is often very depressing.

Saul Bellow

In the history of the world many souls have been, are, and will be, and with a little reflection this is marvelous and not depressing. Many jerks are made gloomy about it, for they think quantity buries them alive. That's just crazy. Numbers are very dangerous, but the main thing about them is that they humble your pride. And that's good.

Troy Garity

School is such an encouraging and safe environment. It's filled with idealism and just really working on your craft. When you enter the business world - where art meets commerce - it can become quite depressing.

Ronald Reagan

Supporters of this fundamental change in immigration policy say we need to import more well-educated talent if we're to stay competitive. But exactly whose competitiveness are we talking about? Not the competitiveness of, say, American-born computer engineers. Adjusted for inflation, their earnings haven't gone anywhere in years. That's in part because American companies have been sending so much of their high-tech work abroad. Bringing more foreign-born engineers here under an expanded H1-B visa program, or a point system for that matter, will just depress wages even further.

Wendell Berry

Rural poverty happens because people aren't being paid to take adequate care of their places. There's lots of work to do here. And you can't afford to pay anybody to do it! If you depress the price of the products of the place below a certain level, people can't afford to maintain it. And that's the rural dilemma.

Roger Wyer

Ron Wistrom

He was exasperating at times, but he was always a joy.

Rob Halford

It's a joy to actually be able to control your own music.

Ronnie Barker

To me singing is a joy. Choral singing is a delight. Welsh Choral singing is more than a delight. The Treorchy Male Choir is the best in choral singing. How then can they be described except in superlatives? They are without equal.

Rex Stout

To read of a detective's daring finesse or ingenious stratagem is a rare joy.

William Wordsworth

And often, glad no more, We wear a face of joy because We have been glad of yore.

Sara Zarr

The world was full of beauty. She wanted to grab hold of it and take it down into her bones. Yet always it seemed beyond her grasp. Sometimes only by a little, like now. The thinnest membrane. Usually, though, by miles. She couldn’t expect to be that kind of happy all the time. She knew that. But sometimes you could. Sometimes you should be allowed a tiny bit of joy that should stay with you for more than five minutes. That wasn’t too much to ask. To have a moment like this, and be able to hold on to it. To cross that membrane, and feel alive.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Joy is your birthright.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Learning to live in the present moment is part of the path of joy.

Walter Reisch

A scientist who cannot prove what he has accomplished, has accomplished nothing.

James Hansen

Luis Walter Alvarez

I don't like to say bad things about paleontologists, but they're not very good scientists. They're more like stamp collectors.

John Charles Polanyi

Arthur Koestler

Scientists are peeping toms at the keyhole of eternity.
