Some advice from a beginner: never judge your full potential based on your first run.
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
I have begun several projects which were never completed, not necessarily because they failed, but because I got interested in other things.
Friendships begun in this world will be taken up again, never to be broken off.
During 'Chicago Hope,' I never let directors talk to me, because I was so spoiled. I started off with people like Milos Forman, Sidney Lumet, James Lapine, unbelievably gifted people. So there I was, saying, 'Don't talk to me, I don't want your opinion.' I behaved abominably.
I'm no diva but I can be annoying in a recording studio. Of course I try to be a diva in terms of confidence of performance and owning a song but I've never behaved like one in terms of the negative connotations of the word.
Our humanity rests upon a series of learned behaviors, woven together into patterns that are infinitely fragile and never directly inherited.
Fear is a far more dominant force in human behaviour than euphoria - I would never have expected that or given it a moment's thought before, but it shows up in the data in so many ways.
My behavioural problems are non-existent because all my freakiness, I guess, is manifested in a visual way. And I never have come unravelled.
If you fall behind, run faster. Never give up, never surrender, and rise up against the odds.
I've never believed that 'Idol' as a franchise is beholden to any individual because everybody said it would die the minute Simon Cowell left, and it hasn't.
Every case involving cybercrime that I've been involved in, I've never found a master criminal sitting somewhere in Russia or Hong Kong or Beijing. It always ends up that somebody at the company did something they weren't supposed to do. They read an email, went to a website they weren't supposed to.
Will Beijing really send out the army to suppress our protests? Never say never.
Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
Being productive gives people a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment that loafing never can.
You may try but you can never imagine what it is to have a man's form of genius in you, and to suffer the slavery of being a girl.
I never thought in terms of being a leader. I thought very simply in terms of helping people.
Anyway, I've never been captain in 16 years in the NHL. But that didn't stop me being a leader in my own way.
In fact, you couldn't give me anything to make me go back to being a teenager. Never. No, I hated it.
No matter how correct a mathematical theorem may appear to be, one ought never to be satisfied that there was not something imperfect about it until it also gives the impression of being beautiful.
