There are many who would much prefer that the word 'climate' never be mentioned and that the issue be eliminated from our national conversation.
The wealthy have never liked to pay for the labor that enriches them. Ever since slavery was eliminated, they have been trying to keep it as close to slavery as they can without violating the slave laws.
I've tried doing so, for it was never my intention to paint only with gray. But in the course of my work I have eliminated one color after another, and what has remained is gray, gray, gray!
Competition can never be eliminated from this industry. There is nothing wrong with it. It keeps you on your toes, making you work harder.
My films have been progressing towards a certain kind of minimalism, even though it was never intended. Elements which can be eliminated have been eliminated.
We never see the fancy schools with the blazers and ties in films about Africa! But, in fact, we too have class and elitism.
The belief that the law will never 'catch up' to technology is borne in part of tech exceptionalism, a libertarian elitism that derides any kind of legal or regulatory impediment as Luddism.
If there's one epithet the Right never tires of, it's 'elitism.'
I try to make films, not movies. I've never liked the expression 'movie', but it sounds elitist to say that.
The cliche of what a rock star is - there's something elitist about it. I never related to that. I'm an entertainer. I think of it as, you're performing for people. It's not a self-glorification thing.
In many ways, 'William Shakespeare's Star Wars' is modeled on Shakespeare's Henry V, which relied on a chorus to explain in words the battles of Harfleur and Agincourt that could never be captured on the Elizabethan stage.
I really never stopped thinking about Ellen, because I just haven't felt that kind of energy with anyone in my life.
I ran into Ellen at a photo shoot. She took my breath away. That had never happened to me in my life.
For, if a good speaker, never so eloquent, does not see into the fact, and is not speaking the truth of that - is there a more horrid kind of object in creation?
Let's pray that the human race never escapes from Earth to spread its iniquity elsewhere.
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.
I've always been into guitars... we want to put keyboards on, but keyboard players don't look cool onstage, they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player, apart from Elton John.
I've always had an eclectic taste in music. But what I try to do is combine these things in ways that others would never think of, like putting Bun B on an Elton John song.
My approach has never been to start from theories to arrive at facts, but on the contrary, to try to bring out from the facts the explanatory thread without which they appear incomprehensible and elude effective action.
When I met Elvis, we didn't really have a conversation. I was introduced by my uncle, and he sort of grunted my way. What stays with me is the whole scene. I had never seen a real mob scene before. I was really young and impressionable. Elvis really did look - he looked sort of not real, as if he were glowing.
