In his state of complete powerlessness the individual perceives the time he has left to live as a brief reprieve.
I like people who are working on practical things and who are working in teams. It's not so important to get the glory. It's much more important to get something that works. It's a better way to live.
I'm addicted to email, but other than that, there are practical things - being able to buy a book on the internet that you can't find in your local bookshop. This could be a lifeline if you live further from the sources.
When I got to 'Saturday Night Live,' it was a lot like going from pre-school to Harvard, and it took a long time to figure stuff out.
Let not England forget her precedence of teaching nations how to live.
We live in a pretty bleak time. I feel that in the air. Everything is uncertain. Everything feels like its on the precipice of some major transformation, whether we like it or not.
There's this notion, kind of like unspoken, that you can't live your dreams and be a mom. You can't have a career and be a mom. There's still that preconceived notion, and I reject that.
A lion's work hours are only when he's hungry; once he's satisfied, the predator and prey live peacefully together.
Most people appear to live an unexamined life, cruising through the years without much reflection about what it means, and/or taking what life hands them and believing it's all predestined.
A study last year showed that the page you turn to first in the newspaper can be a predictor of how long you will live. No surprise, turning first to the Comics Pages prolongs your life.
We all live in a universe in which we're either asked to or are forced to accept certain premises about our employment without having the opportunity to verify them.
I've always thought that you live in the present, you live in a specific present. You are writing, present tense, so write in the present as it is.
Winners live in the present tense. People who come up short are consumed with future or past. I want to be living in the now.
I have somebody I admire and want to keep at a distance. I've had the opportunity to meet her a couple of times - it's Chrissie Hynde from The Pretenders. I just am nuts about her, but I have no interest in meeting her because I just don't think she could live up to what she's been to me in my head.
Nobody I represent is pretending to be the pope or a role model for young people. People have to live their lives. They have the right to smoke if they want.
I have family members who live in Africa. Because of the family that lives there, I know what is happening in these countries, and it seems so silly to me that diseases like malaria are so prevalent when they are entirely preventable. Yet children are still dying every 35 seconds.
The major parties could conduct live human sacrifices on their podiums during prime time, and I doubt that anybody would notice.
I live in a small world of gouache and brush and pen and ink. I'd like to explore the world of multiples - etching and prints.
I don't live in a prism, and I'm not afraid of anything. I haven't built any walls around myself.
I live a very dull life here... indeed I think I am more like a state prisoner than anything else.
