I only feel sorry for weak people. And mostly what I've come to find is that the weak people are the ones that are the haters.
Ceausescu thought I had only a few medals, but I have a room full of them in Bucharest, between 150-200 in all. They needed suitcases to haul them out.
What terrified me will terrify others; and I need only describe the spectre which had haunted my midnight pillow.
Perhaps this is our strange and haunting paradox here in America - that we are fixed and certain only when we are in movement.
The only way I'm interested in having a baby is the old-fashioned way.
The only thing that kept us from going bigger worldwide was the language barrier. All the corn that we did on 'Hee Haw,' it was hard to translate into their slang.
In every case, the environmental hazards were made known only by independent scientists, who were often bitterly opposed by the corporations responsible for the hazards.

I only got interested in radio once I talked my way into an internship at NPR's headquarters in Washington, D.C. in 1978, never having heard the network on the air.

Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.
I've fought with everyone . And now I have become so headstrong that I only do what I want.
The first episodes I actually read for 'Downton,' Sybil was really intimidated and hadn't come into her own. So it's only in Series Two that she's become so headstrong. In general, I find it exciting to play strong, female roles because they're shocking.
The wounds of love can only be healed by the one who made them.
Without health life is not life; it is only a state of langour and suffering - an image of death.
The difference between a healthy person and one who is mentally ill is the fact that the healthy one has all the mental illnesses, and the mentally ill person has only one.
All the therapists would tell me was that I was the only healthy person they knew.
On tour, I'll get up at 5 p.m. and go to bed at 8 in the morning. With fishing, it's the exact opposite. Fishing is the only healthy thing I do. Touring is such a grind; it's the opposite of healthy.
A person hears only what they understand.
