President Abbas, you’ve dedicated your life to advancing the Palestinian cause.

That’s what we should aim for, and that’s what I believe we can achieve.

Al Roker
It would be the greatest delight of the seraphs to pile up sand on the seashore or to pull weeds in a garden for all eternity, if they found out such was God’s will.

What a dog I got, he found out we look alike, so he killed himself.
Rodney Dangerfield

Helen Fielding
Brings [O’Brian’s] achievement to a new height….Such is O’Brian’s power to possess the imagination that I found I was living in his world as much as my own, wanting to know what happens next. That is the real test. Any contemporary novelist should recognize in Patrick O’Brian a Master of the Art.

Paulo Freire
What spurs a person to get more serious is highly individual, but I have found that no matter what a person’s level of ability, motivation must come from within, or it will not last.

For seven years ancient Israel could not be stopped in the Joshua book. I have found this to be a great imagery and analogy for the Christian life. As Christians, we have the same images. We’ve come out of Egypt (been saved) we’ve crossed over, and Jesus Christ is our Moses and our Joshua.
Max Lucado
The man that found the 726-carat diamond in Africa, received $350,000 for it and wants to buy a farm and silk hat. Well, I can understand a man perhaps being eccentric enough to want to own a silk hat.

Vanessa Carlton

Instead of discussing with myself every morning whether I feel inspired or not, I step into my office every day at nine sharp, open the window and politely ask the muse to enter and kiss me. Sometimes she comes in, more often she does not. But she can never claim that she hasn’t found me waiting in the right place.
Peter Prange
Look for the truth, it wants to be found.
Blaise Pascal
The secret of life is to be found in life itself, in the full organic, intellectual and spiritual activities of our body.
Alexis Carrel
I have found that the greatest help in meeting any problem with decency and self-respect and whatever courage is demanded, is to know where you yourself stand. That is, to have in words what you believe and are acting from.
William Faulkner
I found a great trainer in Miami with Dodd Romero, who’s worked with a lot of celebrities and athletes. We built a good program for me for training and for me to work on my nutrition and things like that.
Big Show
Shamanism is essentially a living tradition of alchemy that is not seeking the stone but has found the stone.
Terence McKenna
I’ve found that the way a person feels about cats-and the way they feel about him or her in return-is usually an excellent gauge by which to measure a person’s character
P. C. Cast
I wrote my first real murder story as a journalist for the Daytona Beach News Journal in 1980. It was about a body found in the woods. Later, the murder was linked to a serial killer who was later caught and executed for his crimes.
Michael Connelly
Every time in my life when I have chosen to delay following inspired counsel or decided that I was an exception, I came to know that I had put myself in harm’s way. Every time that I have listened to the counsel of prophets, felt it confirmed in prayer, and then followed it, I have found that I moved toward safety.
Henry B. Eyring
Have you seen my childhood? I’m searching for the world that I came from cause I’ve been looking around in the lost and found of my heart.
Michael Jackson
As to adultery, let it be held disgraceful, in general, for any man or woman to be found in any way unfaithful when they are married, and called husband and wife. If during the time of bearing children anything of the sort occur, let the guilty person be punished with a loss of privileges in proportion to the offense.
Aristotle
If I thought that any poem of mine could have been written by anyone else, either a contemporary or a forerunner, I should suppress it with a blush; and I should do the same if I ever found I were imitating myself. Every poem should be new, unexpected, inimitable, and incapable of being parodied.
Robert Graves
The challenge of life, I have found, is to build a resume that doesn’t simply tell a story about what you want to be, but it’s a story about who you want to be.
Oprah Winfrey
Imagination is like a muscle. I found out that the more I wrote, the bigger it got.
Philip Jose Farmer
Mountaineering is a relentless pursuit. One climbs further and further yet never reaches the destination. Perhaps that is what gives it its own particular charm. One is constantly searching for something never to be found.
Hermann Buhl
He who truly seeks God has found Him.
John Wooden
At 12 years old in the dangerous world that I was in, with a very difficult home life, I found the stage was the safest place to be. It was predetermined and predictable – and furthermore you got to be someone else. All the problems only began when you left the building.
Patrick Stewart
If I wanted to write, I had to be willing to develop a kind of concentration found mostly in people awaiting execution. I had to learn technique and surrender my ignorance.
Maya Angelou
I do not know what your destiny may be, but I do know this, that not one of you will find the happiness that each of you is seeking until you have first sought and found a way in which to unselfishly serve others.
Albert Schweitzer
According to a new study, most men would like women to occasionally pick up the check. The study also found that most women would occasionally like to be paid as much as men for doing the same job.
Conan O’Brien
Researches at Yale found a connection between brain cancer and work environment. The No. 1 most dangerous job for developing brain cancer? Plutonium hat model.
Jimmy Fallon
You know, I found out recently that the word “heretic” comes from the Greek word “airetikГіs”, meaning “able to choose” – which pretty much says it all, don’t you think?
Pat Condell
But let not those worthy young women, who may think themselves destined to a single life, repine over-much at their lot; since, possibly, if they have had no lovers, or having had one, two, or three, have not found a husband, they have had rather a miss than a loss, as men go.
Samuel Richardson
One thing is all things. To resolve one matter, one must resolve all matters. Changing one thing changes all things. Once I made the decision to sow rice in the fall, I found that I could also stop transplanting, and plowing, and applying chemical fertilizers, and preparing compost, and spraying pesticides.
Masanobu Fukuoka
Mankind is engaged in an eternal quest for that ‘something else’ he hopes will bring him happiness, complete and unending.For those individual souls who have sought and found God, the search is over: He is that Something Else.
Paramahansa Yogananda
The FBI had a right to review that. And they did and they found Hillary Clinton not in any criminal violation.
Chris Matthews
I’ve found the thing in life that I adore, which is working in science television. It’s just a big adventure, really.
Dallas Campbell
I didn’t really know X-Men at all before I started. So I’d heard of this comic but I didn’t know it was as beloved or as iconic as I have now found out, but I just know fans are going to flip out at this.
Hugh Jackman
I found my way to street level and into what optimists call ‘fresh air
Gunnar Staalesen
Nature gives us all, including Prof. Lorentz, surprises. It was very quickly found that there are many exceptions to the rule of splitting of the lines only into triplets.
Pieter Zeeman
I have endeavoured to dissipate these religious superstitions from the minds of women, and base their faith on science and reason, where I found for myself at last that peace and comfort I could never find in the Bible and the church.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton
What I’m having is this conflict in my life right now, that in New York, I see my directing friends and I see acting friends and they’ve all got this level of passion about either or both of those directions that I’ve never really found myself having.
Danny Pintauro
Every action we take has consequences, Vin,” Kelsier said. “I’ve found that in both Allomancy and life, the person who can best judge the consequences of their actions will be the most successful.
Brandon Sanderson
In fact, even in that store Draeger’s they had 348 different kinds of jam actually in the jam aisle. And what we found over about, say, 10 years of research is that as the number of choices actually increase people are less likely to make a choice and sometimes they do this even when it’s really bad for them.
Sheena Iyengar
A lot of people have found the idea of living your life over and over again absolutely terrifying; there’s some people that find it very comforting. There are others that are appalled by it.
Alan Moore
There is an intimate laughter to be found only among friends
Maya Angelou
Walk with those seeking truth… RUN FROM THOSE WHO THINK THEY’VE FOUND IT.
Deepak Chopra
As I have found out, recognition has its upside, its downside and – you may say – its backside.
Pippa Middleton
I soon found law school an unmitigated bore.
Constance Baker Motley
I’m throwing myself back in because I like being married. I don’t want to end this whole fabulous journey alone. I want someone by my side who I love and who loves me. I’ve finally found somebody who’s up to the task of being my wife, because I’m very high maintenance.
Neil Diamond
Find me a servant who admires his Master and you will have found two good men.
Lucullus
Life is not found in commandments or declarations of penalties, but in the promise of mercy and only in a gratuitous promise.
John Calvin
Texas has no income tax, which is a big draw for corporate executives who do business there. But it’s hardly tax-free. The property taxes are high for a Southern state. The sales taxes are high. One study found that the bottom 20 percent of the Texas population pays 12 percent of its income in state and local taxes.
Gail Collins
You never run into a fundamentalist Christian as intolerant of – take anything, you know, homosexuality as a liberal who has just found a lit cigarette in a nonsmoking section.
Ann Coulter
And many of the people who buy or found banks have had no experience in banking at all. If they can learn it, so can we.
Penny Lernoux
Well, fortunately we found out that the runner-up our particular year was going to get a record contract also. So it was kind of a – it was bitter sweet but it was an opportunity.
Clay Aiken
It no longer bothers me that I may be constantly searching for father figures; by this time, I have found several and dearly enjoyed knowing them all.
Alice Walker
If travel is searching and home what’s been found, I’m not stopping. I’m going hunting.
Bjork
I found it all about as arousing as a Tupperware party.
Stephen Fry
There was a dance that everyone was doing that was heavily skewed with the power in one direction, but the dance was basically working, and then the dance got really disrupted with the first wave of feminism, and nobody found their footing yet – not the guys, not the women.
Amanda Palmer
When I was doing ‘Britain’s Got Talent,’ I really enjoyed it, but I found it very difficult to be in the audience. I like to be on stage; I feel safer on stage because I’m in control.
David Hasselhoff
The world, the future, is now within you as your past, as experience, skill in technique, and the rich, everlasting mystery is found to be childish you that, at the time, you made no effort to possess.
Cesare Pavese
Putting a rheumatologist at the head of a committee that arguably was going to have more influence over brain research than any particular institution in the country at the time, I think a lot of people found surprising.
Steve Fainaru
In all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other.
Carl Sagan
I have discovered nothing. I have only found out what I knew. I understand the force that in the past gave me life, and now too gives me life. I have been set free from falsity, I have found the Master.
Leo Tolstoy
I saw ‘Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs’ when it came out, didn’t like it too much. I found she was stupid.
Agnes Varda
The women who intrigued me [as models] had the most beautiful necks and the most responsive hand movements. At one point, I found El Greco, and that elongated look became my way of seeing.
Lillian Bassman
Of course, I had my heart broken as a teen. I was desperately in love with myself. Then I found out that I was completely shallow. I haven’t spoken to myself since.
Matthew Tobin Anderson
When you make a breakthrough it is a moment of scientific exhilaration because you have been on this search and seem to have found it. But it is also a moment where I at least feel closeness to the creator in the sense of having now perceived something that no human knew before but God knew all along.
Francis Collins
… we banked around until we found a rainbow in the dark. It was on this occasion that I discovered that Granuaile had never heard of Ronnie James Dio. My shock at this news was such that I almost completely missed the fact that we were traveling on Bifrost, the rainbow bridge to Asgard.
Kevin Hearne
Leave every environment you go into better than you found it.
Claudia Black
I find virtue to be found amongst the farmers of the country alone, not about courts, where courtiers dwell.
Andrew Jackson
I found out when I did the Oprah Winfrey show that there was a cookie jar of me. So she gave it to me. I had no idea prior to that that it even existed.
Carrie Fisher
Our camels plodded along. Katrina tried to kiss, or possibly spit on Hindenburg, and Hindenburg farted in response. I found this a depressing commentary on boy-girl relationships.
Rick Riordan
I really wouldn’t want to live in America. I found New York claustrophobic and dirty. I missed England when I was there, simple things like smells and the British sense of humor.
Jonny Lee Miller
But a few choosing to venture deeper into the painful corridors of their affliction, found after a while that they could now grind and polish ever more exotic surfaces, hyperboloidial and even stranger, eventually including what we must term ‘imaginary’ shapes (which some preferred to term invisible).
Thomas Pynchon
For more than five years I maintained myself thus solely by the labour of my hands, and I found, that by working about six weeks in a year, I could meet all the expenses of living.
Henry David Thoreau
I found out that when you get married the man becomes the head of the house. And the woman becomes the neck, and she turns the head any way she wants to.
Yakov Smirnoff
I was 26 years old when I found out that I had a sister who I never knew existed.
Dominique Moceanu
I have always laid it down as a maxim -and found it justified by experience -that a man and a woman make far better friendships than can exist between two of the same sex -but then with the condition that they never have made or are to make love to each other.
Lord Byron
I continued to do arithmetic with my father, passing proudly through fractions to decimals. I eventually arrived at the point where so many cows ate so much grass, and tanks filled with water in so many hours. I found it quite enthralling.
Agatha Christie
A grave, wherever found, preaches a short and pithy sermon to the soul.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
It may come as a surprise but I also really started to get into history while I was at school. I found the projects about World War Two fascinating – perhaps when I get the time again, I could pick up where I left off.
Rory McIlroy
I have found myself deeply, deeply intrigued by the ska-punk scene. It’s such an expressive form of popular music, it’s so real, it’s got so much life: it’s the most vital music in the world.
David Bowie
Circumstances which we have resented, situations which we have found desperately difficult, have all been the means in the hands of God of driving the nails into the self-life which so easily complains.
Alan Redpath
I’ve found that the chief difficulty for most people was to realize that they had really heard new things: that is things that they had never heard before. They kept translating what they heard into their habitual language. They had ceased to hope and believe there might be anything new.
P.D. Ouspensky
England has had a lot of really bad periods of music, but it’s had several amazing periods where they’ve found an incredible balance, not just between music that’s a rather complex and also pretty direct. Like the Beatles.
Tod Machover
They had their faces twisted toward their haunches and found it necessary to walk backward, because they could not see ahead of them. …And since he wanted so to see ahead, he looks behind and walks a backward path.
Dante Alighieri
Betwixt the stirrup and the ground Mercy I asked, mercy I found.
William Camden
I mean the fact is that some of this information that we have found out that led to Usama bin Laden actually came from these enhanced interrogation techniques.
Rick Santorum
Even in Los Angeles, where we lived, when we would date somebody or go out with them, if we went out with somebody else the next night, we often found that women were banging on our windows while we were bedded down with other women!
Burt Ward
Some of you may know my story: How for nineteen years, I worked as a manager for a tire plant in Alabama. And some of you may have lived a similar story: After nearly two decades of hard, proud work, I found out that I was making significantly less money than the men who were doing the same work as me.
Lilly Ledbetter
The rational is apprehended through the intellect, however, the intellect is not found in the region of the rational; the intellect is as the eye and the rational as the colors.
Nicholas of Cusa
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.
Frank Abagnale
I come of Quaker stock. My ancestors were persecuted for their beliefs. Here they sought and found religious freedom. By blood and conviction I stand for religious tolerance both in act and in spirit.
Herbert Hoover
I was a fitness fiasco – until I found Pilates . . . It’s been the most gentle on my body I’m longer and leaner and much more graceful. I can honestly say it’s changed my body – and my life.
Chelsea Handler
Time and again, we have found the ‘idle’ truths arrived at through the process of inquiry to be of the greatest moment for practical human affairs.
Herbert A. Simon
You know that you’ve found something amazing, and you want to hold on to it forever; and every second after you have it, you fear the moment you might lose it.
Kiera Cass
The sanctified body is one whose hands are clean. The stain of dishonesty is not on them, the withering blight of ill-gotten gain has not blistered them, the mark of violence is not found upon them. They have been separated from every occupation that could displease God or injure a fellow-man.
A. B. Simpson
We affirm the neutrality of Science … Science is of no country. … But if Science has no country, the scientist must keep in mind all that may work towards the glory of his country. In every great scientist will be found a great patriot.
Louis Pasteur
The gratification of wealth is not found in mere possession or in lavish expenditure, but in its wise application.
Miguel de Cervantes
I found myself doing extraordinary things that arent in the textbooks. Then the IMF asked the U.S. to please print money. The whole world is now practicing what they have been saying I should not. I decided that God had been on my side and had come to vindicate me.
Gideon Gono
People had been so attached to the Diane [Cheers] character that audiences and producers found it difficult to think of me in any other terms. It took some time before people would consider me for other parts.
Shelley Long
My mind is a chest of drawers. When I wish to deal with a subject, I shut all the drawers but the one in which the subject is to be found. When I am wearied, I shut all the drawers and go to sleep.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Sometimes the greatest love is not found in the dramatic scenes that poets and writers immortalize. Often, the greatest manifestations of love are the simple acts of kindness and caring we extend to those we meet along the path of life.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Morality which is no particular socity’s morality is to be found nowhere.
Alasdair MacIntyre
When I was little, I was actually really shy. I really enjoyed doing school plays, but I found the whole thing terrifying. I cried myself to sleep once because I thought my teacher was going to give me the lead role. I never imagined acting was a viable career.
Emily Berrington
It’s always good to find things that you haven’t found before.
Jim Goldberg
I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.
Henry David Thoreau
I have found that I am not a space where people want to live, at least not without decorating first.
Jeanette Winterson
The history of a people are found in its songs.
George Jellinek
That was my earliest maladaptive coping mechanism I forged when I was a kid. I found that my fists weren’t going to do any significant protective work for me, so my mouth was it. Making my father laugh was a way to control him.
Ryan Reynolds
Whenever one refuses to admit such a self-evident truth, for instance, as that it is wrong to steal, don’t argue with him-search him; the reason may be found in his pocket.
William Jennings Bryan
I’m really into rocks. I have a really serious rock collection. Rocks and feathers and shells and strange found things in nature. I have a lot of those kinds of collections.
Brit Marling
I found my student of the year, and now Tata Nano is searching for India’s student of the year
Karan Johar
As a teenager, I increasingly had questions about religion to which I found no good answers.
Julian Baggini
If lawyers were to undertake no causes till they were sure they were just, a man might be precluded altogether from a trial of his claim, though, were it judicially examined, it might be found a very just claim.
Samuel Johnson
Granny Ditto always referred to perfume as “smell good” and for me it’s an essential. I have a sweetheart who’s extremely allergic to most scents, so I have to be extra careful – as well as creative – in the smell department. The key, I’ve found, are essential oils, which come in all kinds of 100% natural scents.
Beth Ditto
At last the anchor was up, the sails were set, and off we glided. It was a sharp, cold Christmas; and as the short northern day merged into night, we found ourselves almost broad upon the wintry ocean, whose freezing spray cased us in ice, as in polished armor.
Herman Melville
I searched for God and found only myself. I searched for myself and found only God.
Rumi
The great thing is to be found at one’s post as a child of God, living each day as though it were our last, but planning as though the world might last a hundred years.
C. S. Lewis
Our sin reached its full horror and found its most awful expression in the cross.
Colin S. Smith
We found love in a hopeless place.
Rihanna
Panic is an incredibly catalyzing creative force. And almost out of sheer necessity, I found I had to talk about myself and my real life as it is effectively lived by me.
John Hodgman
The best leaders are apt to be found among those executives who have a strong component of unorthodoxy in their character. Instead of resisting innovation, they symbolize it.
David Ogilvy
He is the wisest who seeks God.В  He is the most successful who has found God.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Even the Beatles found it hard to escape their image; they were trapped by it.
Tina Weymouth
Miracles are everywhere to be found When I surrender my infinite desires To my immortal aspirations.
Sri Chinmoy
I found out about it probably 9 – 10 months before we shot the film [Don’t Kill It] because it was postponed a couple of times, which was actually a good thing because once it all finally came together, I had to get in there and roll off different pages of dialogue and monologues pretty quickly.
Dolph Lundgren
He found a new way to cover up his bad breath. He holds up his arms.
Rodney Dangerfield
Wherever we’ve travelled in this great land of ours, we’ve found that people everywhere are about 90% water.
David Letterman
I think we all have experiences when we were young where we either had an interaction with someone we admired or you know, had a vision of how they were and found out that they weren’t necessarily that and that it tends to be a big let down sometimes.
John Cena
If you come to worship for any reason other that the joy and pleasure and satisfaction that are to be found in God, you dishonor Him…God’s greatest delight is your delight in Him.
Sam Storms
RIGHTEOUSNESS, n. A sturdy virtue that was once found among the Pantidoodles inhabiting the lower part of the peninsula of Oque. Some feeble attempts were made by returned missionaries to introduce it into several European countries . .
Ambrose Bierce
It will be found, in fact, that the ingenious are always fanciful, and the truly imaginative never otherwise than analytic.
Edgar Allan Poe
Acting found me. I thought maybe I should try to find it again. We’ll see.
Macaulay Culkin
Impossible is the word found only in a fool’s dictionary. Wise people create opportunities for themselves and make everything possible.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Where people of goodwill get together and transcend their differences for the common good, peaceful and just solutions can be found even for those problems which seem most intractable.
Nelson Mandela
A silenced Haiti has once again found its literary voice.
Paule Marshall
An intellectual is a person who’s found one thing that’s more interesting than sex.
Aldous Huxley
My wife lost all her credit cards, but I’m not going to report it. Whoever found them spends less than she does!
Henny Youngman
That is the nature of endings, it seems. They never end. When all the missing pieces of your life are found, put together with glue of memory and reason, there are more pieces to be found.
Amy Tan
In seventh grade…I found a place on the [library]shelf where my book would be if I ever wrote a book, which I doubted.
Beverly Cleary
I want somebody, a men, who’s whole and wholesome and has as much zest for living as I have. But I haven’t found one who fills the bill; you can’t hardly find them kind no more. And I know many women my size, psychologically and intellectually, who have the same problem.
Madalyn Murray O’Hair
My sister Emily loved the moors. Flowers brighter than the rose bloomed in the blackest of the heath for her; out of a sullen hollow in a livid hillside her mind could make an Eden. She found in the bleak solitude many and dear delights; and not the least and best-loved was – liberty.
Charlotte Bronte
Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of a good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles.
Pierre de Coubertin
Jake’s mouth found mine, his lips molding hot and soft to my own. His tongue tentatively tested the seal of my lips; I parted them and he pushed inside. It was startlingly sweet and achingly familiar, like finding harbor.
Josh Lanyon
I used to love reading when I was little, and then it became difficult and I didn’t understand why. I thought, what a bummer, my passion all drained out of me. So when I found out I had dyslexia, it was like, oh, that’s what it was.
Jewel
They believed that if a mouse found your hair clippings and built a nest with them you got a headache. If the nest was big enough, you might go mad.
Jeanette Winterson
I’m glad I haven’t found my style yet. I’d be bored to death.
Edgar Degas
And so, too, I speak of love: he who is held by it is held by the strongest of bonds, and yet the stress is pleasant. Moreover, he can sweetly bear all that happens to him. When one has found this bond, he looks for no other.
Meister Eckhart
The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.
Earl Warren
The true value of a human being can be found in the degree to which he has attained liberation from the self.
Albert Einstein
In the main it will be found that a power over a man’s support [salary] is a power over his will.
Alexander Hamilton
I was making love to a man, a man I hardly even know. He was kissing the face off me and I was kissing the face off him. And I found it highly satisfactory.
Anita Loos
As I’ve gone through life, I’ve found that your chances for happiness are increased if you wind up doing something that is a reflection of what you loved most when you were somewhere between nine and eleven years old.
Walter Murch
The answer to human life is not to be found within the limits of human life.
Carl Jung
What’s required is a kind of social media sherpa, who can find you the audience you seek, who can reach to them on the platforms where they are already congregating, and who can help promote in tasteful ways that fit the sensitivities of the networks where your audiences are found.
Chris Brogan
I have found life so beautiful.
Helen Keller
The past isn’t useful until its place in the present is found.
Judith Perelman Rossner
I have found little that is ‘good’ about human beings on the whole. In my experience most of them are trash, no matter whether they publicly subscribe to this or that ethical doctrine or to none at all. That is something that you cannot say aloud, or perhaps even think.
Sigmund Freud
There is never a rational reason for a man to rejoice that a certain pretty girl exists and that he has found her. The experience, however, is universal.
Murray Leinster
Ever-new Joy is God. He is inexhaustible; as you continue your meditations during the years, He will beguile you with an infinite ingenuity. Devotees like yourself who have found the way to God never dream of exchanging Him for any other happiness; He is seductive beyond thought of competition.
Paramahansa Yogananda
On Mars, the crumbling remains of ancient civilizations may be found, mutely testifying to the one-time glory of a dying world.
P. E. Cleator
Truth may have been found but might never be known.
Kedar Joshi
I know that sounds a little bit corny, but I’ve found some solace in that. I hope art can continue to do that for people, I really do.
Ava DuVernay
The most valuable moments and experiences that life has to offer are found only along its most treacherous paths.
Augusten Burroughs
Men will tell you sometimes that “money’s hard.” That shows it was not made to eat, I say…. Some of those who sank with the steamer the other day found out that money was heavy too.
Henry David Thoreau
Why did I write? Because I found life unsatisfactory.
Tennessee Williams
Allison Winn Scotch is the real deal and The Department of Lost and Found is one you absolutely won’t want to miss.
Johanna Edwards
I really had no religious upbringing, which is unusual. But I think it saved me, because when I found the theory that I wanted to follow, I did not have anything to unlearn.
Louise Hay
I have found success is ultimately realized by people who make more right choices . . . and recover quickly from their bad choices.
David Cottrell
I was trying to write then and I found the greatest difficulty, aside from knowing what you really felt, rather that what you were supposed to feel, and had been taught to feel, was to put down what really happened in action; what the actual things which produced the emotion that you experienced.
Ernest Hemingway
Bullies are always to be found where there are cowards.
Mahatma Gandhi
When the grass was closely mown,
Walking on the lawn alone,
In the turf a hole I found,
And hid a soldier underground.
Spring and daisies came apace;
Grasses hide my hiding place;
Grasses run like a green sea
O’er the lawn up to my knee.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The only security for the American people today, or for any people, is to be found through the control of force rather than the use of force.
Norman Cousins
I found that the body, mind and spirit are all connected. They are not separate pieces.
Judith Light
More often than not, in order to find truth, a wise man must suffer the ravings of the insane. There is no undiscovered truth to be found in the minds of the reasonable and rational.
Derek R. Audette
The greatest treasures are those invisible to the eye but found by the heart.
Judy Garland
And the founder of Christianity made no secret indeed of his estimation of the Jewish people. When He found it necessary, He drove those enemies of the human race out of the Temple of God.
Adolf Hitler
Studies of children in playgrounds with both green areas and manufactured play areas found that children engaged in more creative forms of play in the green areas.
Richard Louv
… we photographers are nothing but a pack of crooks, thieves and voyeurs. We are to be found everywhere we are not wanted; we betray secrets that were never entrusted to us; we spy shamelessly on things that are not our business; And end up the hoarders of a vast quantity of stolen goods.
Brassai
I remember being with a girlfriend who asked me to look over some chess openings with her. I instantly fell asleep. I found that I could always take a nap in any situation by just looking at some opening variation – my eyes would shut right away.
Pal Benko
When you are in love with a man or a woman, the love you feel does not come from him or her; it is the love flowing from you own heart that you feel. Your partner is simply giving you an excuse to love. Love is always found flowing in your heart, not in your family, lover, career or art.
David Deida
When I sat there in 1971 and watched my grandfather open Walt Disney World, I was a little 11-year-old girl who worshiped the ground he walked on. You probably couldn’t have found much daylight between the NRA and the Disney company.
Abigail Disney
You meaner beauties of the night, That poorly satisfy our eyes More by your number than your light; You common people of the skies, What are you when the sun shall rise? This was printed with music as early as 1624, in East’s Sixth Set of Books, and is found in many manuscripts.
Henry Wotton
Ballet found me. I was discovered by a teacher in middle school. I always danced, my whole life. I never had any training, never was exposed to seeing dance, but I always had something inside of me.
Misty Copeland
Accordingly the Northern races of Europe found their inspiration in the Bible; and the enthusiasm for it has not yet quite faded away.
Lafcadio Hearn
I don’t even know if I will be around next year. My cancers are so bad that I think I’ve arrived at the end of the road. What a pity. I would like to live not only because I love life so much, but because I’d like to see the result of the trial. I do think I will be found guilty.
Oriana Fallaci
I think Walt Whitman went to the help wanted section and found a squib that said “Wanted: National Poet.” And he was innocent enough to believe there really was such a job. And if he could just write a poem that incorporated everything he felt and suspected and hoped for from America that he would have the position.
Allan Gurganus
A person who can connect with their partner, another human being who can connect with their soul в€’ it’s not just learning steps, it’s about expressing something. I’ve found in dancing all my life that I can release something as a dancer that I can’t in any other way.
Patrick Swayze
I found it more pleasurable to write something, sing a melody over it. At a very young age, I kind of honed my writing skills, I guess.
DJ Ashba
What I’ve found is that a lot of soldiers are surprisingly apolitical. Their reality is, “Today I’m going to leave the gate for twelve hours, and I’m going to make it back to the dining facility by sundown with the arms and legs of me and my buddies intact.”
Henry Rollins
It hurt, of course, but more often than not the best things do, I’ve found.
Stephen King
Pleasure without God, without the sacred boundaries, will actually leave you emptier than before. And this is biblical truth, this is experiential truth. The loneliest people in the world are amongst the wealthiest and most famous who found no boundaries within which to live. That is a fact I’ve seen again and again.
Ravi Zacharias
I’m so despondent about everything. Everything I try goes totally wrong. There’s no escape from this hole here. I feel drained. So far, I still haven’t found a real purpose in life. Sometimes, I’m afraid to get out of bed in the morning. There’s nothing to get up for.
Joseph Goebbels
Conducting! A subject, truly, concerning which much might be written, yet scarcely anything of real importance is to be found in books.
Anton Seidl
some people seem to graze like sheep in the placid pastures of their faith. Some of them were born there and never broke away … Others, after some wandering, found shelter there and are quiet and content. They look with a bland mystification at the mavericks.
Marjorie Holmes
I still found literary criticism to be a suspect activity
Alison Bechdel
I feel like records are moments in time, a modern moment that feels right then and it found its way to us then, that minute. We can all try and repeat records we have made that had success, but it’s not possible.
Shelby Lynne
We have found ways… to torture and maim animals and make their lives a misery, almost a living hell… in the multinational food industry… and in laboratories where often the most important thing being researched is the latest in lipstick or face cream.
David Oderberg
You ask what I have found and far and wide I go,
Nothing but Cromwell’s house and Cromwell’s murderous crew,
The lovers and the dancers are beaten into the clay,
And the tall men and the swordsmen and the horsemen where are they?
William Butler Yeats
Let us seek Death, or he not found, supply With our own hands his office on ourselves; Why stand we longer shivering under fears, That show no end but death, and have the power, Of many ways to die the shortest choosing, Destruction with destruction to destroy.
John Milton
While she cut the mushrooms, she cried more than she had at the grave, the most so far, because she found the saddest thing of all to be the simple truth of her capacity to move on.
Aimee Bender
Artists are always looking for new things and fresh ground and fresh air. If it feels new to me, there’s a chance it’ll feel new to the audience and we’ll have found something.
Jerry Seinfeld
First, those who disagree with market efficiency simply assert that it stands to common sense that greater effort to get facts and greater acumen in analyzing those facts will pay off in better performance somehow measured. (By this logic, cure for cancer must have been found by 1955).
Paul Samuelson
If elected, Hillary Clinton could be impeached based on what we already know, and there’s plenty more yet to be discovered. Emails and other documents that could be used in impeachment proceedings are waiting to be found like Easter eggs laid out for 3-year-olds.
Rush Limbaugh
All the world Loves You,
but You are nowhere to be found,
Hidden and yet . . . completely obvious!
Rumi
It is difficult for a proud man ever to forgive a person who has found him at fault, and who has good grounds for complaining of him; his pride is not assuaged till he has regained the advantages he lost and put the other person in the wrong.
Jean de la Bruyere
In fame’s temple there is always a niche to be found for rich dunces, importunate scoundrels, or successful butchers of the human race.
Johann Georg Ritter von Zimmermann
I had to learn, really, how to rein in my energies and discipline myself. And I found it very very useful. I rebelled against it at first, but it’s a good thing to have.
Patti Smith
If I ever found a church that didn’t believe in knocking all the other churches, I might consider joining it.
W. C. Fields
Everything hurt. I closed my eyes, pressing my cheek to the street, and waited. What for, I didn’t know. To be rescued. Or found. But no one came. All I’d ever thought I wanted was to be left alone. Until I was.
Sarah Dessen
Let us seek truth everywhere;
let us cull it wherever we can find its blossom
or its SEED. Having Found the seed,
let us scatter it to the winds of heaven.
Where ever it may blow, it will germinate.
There is no lack in this wide universe of souls
that will form the new ground.
Romain Rolland
I found that our Soviet espionage efforts had virtually never, or had very seldom, produced any worthwhile political or economic intelligence on the Soviet Union.
Aldrich Ames
Economic libertarians and Christian evangelicals, united by their common enemy, are strange bedfellows in today’s Republican party, just as the two Georges – the archconservative Wallace and the uberliberal McGovern – found themselves in the same Democratic Party in 1972.
Steven Pinker
I have always paid attention to the merits of my enemies, and found it an advantage.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
It is somethingit can be everything-to have found a fellow bird with whom you can sit among the rafters while the drinking and boasting and reciting and fighting go on below.
Wallace Stegner
I’m lost. And it’s my own fault. It’s about time I figured out that I can’t ask people to keep me found.
Anne Sexton
I discovered that Robert Todd Lincoln was there for each of the first three assassinations. I wanted to write about the Lincoln Memorial, so when I found out he had attended its dedication, that helped focus it further.
Sarah Vowell
We just haven’t found Bigfoot because the world is big. And the woods are deep. The more TV shows that we can get where people go out looking for Bigfoot, the better our chances are. So let’s get more of those shows going.
Rob Huebel
I really didn’t want to be a part of the world because I found that the world was filled with unkindness. People didn’t love each other.
Frederick Lenz
I became a better pitcher when I found a delivery in my flaw.
Dan Quisenberry
The first thing I said to myself on 9/11 was, ‘There go our civil rights.’ I found out by comparing notes later that George Carlin and I both said that at the exact same time. That’s the first thing that popped into our head.
Penn Jillette
When we were on the road, I found out that my greatest hits album went Gold. They freaked out. Things really came to a head when we started arguing about a Van Halen greatest hits package.
Sammy Hagar
Mary found again in the adorable Host the adorable fruit of her womb… and began in the Cenacle her new maternity at the feet of Jesus in the Eucharist
Peter Julian Eymard
One of the things, universally, that psychologists found with hijackers in the early ’70s was that they all struggled with women.
Geoffrey Gray
And where the rewards for merit are greatest, there are found the best citizens.
Thucydides
I’m always careful to say that I changed everything I found.
Claes Oldenburg
Other problems confront women in power. One is fine but two’s a crowd seems to be an unspoken rule when the one wears a skirt. And those in authority have found ways to reward women for excluding others of their kind.
Kathleen Hall Jamieson
I haven’t found anything that I’ve wanted to say that I couldn’t do through either the Internet or the reality shows that I’ve done.
Zach Anner
The best answer to the problem of evil is not one so much found on paper but on wood.
Peter Kreeft
Serendipitous discoveries are made by chance, found without looking for them but possible only through a sharp vision and sagacity, ready to see the unexpected and never indulgent with the apparently unexplainable.
Horace Walpole
So you think you’ve found the solution but it’s just another illusion.
Bob Marley
Many years ago, when I was just about as complete a failure as one can become, I began to spend a good deal of time in libraries, looking for some answers. I found all the answers I needed in that golden vein of ore that every library has.
Og Mandino
I found at a young age that emotions aren’t always handled with talking and other emotions. I started ballet, seriously around fourteen, and let me tell you, nothing can give you an emotional reset like a good ballet barre.
Michael Adam Hamilton
Every revival worthy of the name begins in the restoration of the Word of God to the pulpit, and its fearless proclamation by those anointed of God to preach the Gospel. The revival under Josiah took place when ‘Hilkiah found the Book of the Law of the Lord’.
Wilbur Moorehead Smith
We are now forming a republican government. Real liberty is never found in despotism or the extremes of democracy, but in moderate governments.
Alexander Hamilton
From a neighbour, I got a one-day-old duckling and found, to my intense joy, that it transferred its following response to my person. At the same time, my interest became irreversibly fixated on water fowl, and I became an expert on their behaviour even as a child.
Konrad Lorenz
A year ago I was in the city of Genoa, and I found that it returned seven representatives to the Sardinian Parliament at Turin, seven being its fair share, calculated according to the population of the various cities and districts of the Sardinian kingdom.
John Bright
The warm dampness of her breath made me shiver at the mix of the familiar and the unknown, with a soft exhalation she shifted her head and her lips found my collarbone, teasingly shy of my old scar. Tendrils pulsed in time with my heart, building on the ones before to an unseen height.
Kim Harrison
If you don’t like to read, you haven’t found the right book.
J. K. Rowling
Music is an extraordinary vehicle for expressing emotion – very powerful emotions. That’s what draws millions of people towards it. And, um, I found myself always going for these darker places and – people identify with that.
Annie Lennox
You keep thinking that you’ll never get burned, I just found me a brand new box of matches.
Nancy Sinatra
Moralizing and morals are two entirely different things and are always found in entirely different people
Don Herold
Kids in Washington every year have the big Easter egg roll on the White House lawn. The kids found 300 Easter eggs. They also found about 10,000 missing Hillary emails.
David Letterman
Two bubbles found they had rainbows on their curves. They flickered out saying: “It was worth being a bubble, just to have held that rainbow thirty seconds.
Carl Sandburg
And he found himself thinking that maybe stories don’t just make us matter to each other – maybe they’re also the only way to the infinite mattering he’d been after for so long.
John Green
The whole world is a cyclone. But once you have found the center, the cyclone disappears. This nothingness is the ultimate peak of consciousness.
Rajneesh
I used to think that having many material things would increase one’s stock of happiness. I found that to be completely untrue. The trappings don’t make the man at all.
George Harrison
I was coming home from kindergarten – well they told me it was kindergarten. I found out later I had been working in a factory for ten years. It’s good for a kid to know how to make gloves.
Ellen DeGeneres
Where on the globe can there be found an area of equal extent with that occupied by the bulk of our States, so fertile and so richand varied in its productions, and at the same time so habitable by the European, as this is?
Henry David Thoreau
I cannot copy nature in a servile way; I am forced to interpret nature and submit it to the spirit of the picture. From the relationship I have found in all the tones there must result a living harmony of colors, a harmony analogous to that of a musical composition.
Henri Matisse
Walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous, the cheerful, the planners, the doers, the successful people with their heads in the clouds and their feet on the ground. Let their spirit ignite a fire within you to leave this world better than when you found it.
Wilferd Peterson
Whether you’ve seen angels floating around your bedroom or just found a ray of hope at a lonely moment, choosing to believe that something unseen is caring for you can be a life-shifting exercise.
Martha Beck
Happiness is in the mind, experiences of joy or pleasure should be found in the body; but ongoing joy, pure unadulterated joy, that feeling of bliss for no reason comes when you feel like your life matters because it matters to more than yourself.
Tony Robbins
I haven’t a clue if there is life on other planets but I’d be charmed if we found a unicellular organism on Mars. It would change our whole concept of life on Earth.
Tommy Lee Jones
My aunt got me interested in journalism – she found an old typewriter, had it worked over, put it on the dining room table, gave me a stack of paper and said, ‘Play like you’re a writer.’
Dan Jenkins
I found Spotted Tail’s lodge. He invited me to enter.
Buffalo Bill
Count not thyself to have found true peace, if thou hast felt no grief; nor that then all is well if thou hast no adversary; nor that this is perfect, if all things fall out according to thy desire.
Thomas a Kempis
Endings are elusive, middles are nowhere to be found, but worst of all is to begin, to begin, to begin.
Donald Barthelme
If a man does not argue with the thoughts that the enemy secretly sows in us, but by prayer to God uproots conversation with them, this is a sign that his mind has attained wisdom, and that he has found a short path.
Isaac of Nineveh
Courtesy which oft is found in lowly sheds, with smoky rafters, than in tapestry halls and courts of princes, where it first was named.
John Milton
Once you’ve found your own voice, the choice to expand your influence, to increase your contribution, is the choice to inspire others to find their voice.
Stephen Covey
My dad was in the army so we moved around a lot and I changed schools every year and had to make new friends, and I found that if I was the funny guy I could do that easier.
Jason Gann
There are many stories I’ve wanted to write that I’m simply not able to – sometimes I haven’t found the way in yet, and it doesn’t matter how hard I try.
Mary J. Miller
In America, there’s this type of expectation of just-add-water celebrity, this type of, “Of course you found me; we’re all going to be famous for 15 minutes,” sort of Paris-Hilton-ization of society.
Kehinde Wiley
The Google algorithm was a significant development. I’ve had thank-you emails from people whose lives have been saved by information on a medical website or who have found the love of their life on a dating website.
Tim Berners-Lee
I was assailed by memories of a life that wasn’t mine anymore, but one in which I’d found the simplest and most lasting joys.
Albert Camus
I really believe that Bob Dylan and others have speeded up the changes. Pacifism has found a voice at last.
David Bowie
And then writing, it was like I just found it, you know? Like you just found your favorite flavor of ice cream, all of a sudden there it is. ‘This is what I should have been doing for the last thirty years. What was I thinking?’ So I was, then I was in and then I had to just keep going with it.
Stephenie Meyer
She couldn’t have found anything nastier to say if she had thought it out with both hands for a fortnight.
Dorothy L. Sayers
My parents found me very difficult to educate.
Mika Brzezinski
Never stir up litigation, a worse man can scarcely be found than one who does this, who can be more nearly a fiend than he who habitually overhauls the register of deeds in search of defects in titles, whereon to stir up strife, and put money in his pocket?
Abraham Lincoln
I found a lot of animators bring a lot of baggage to the party, just that there’s a certain way of doing things in that world that’s a little hard to unlearn.
Steve Dildarian
Most people know what to do, but they don’t do what they know – because they haven’t found their inner drive. Their passion.
Tony Robbins
I almost never do drawings, because I have found over the years that doing something in one medium and translating into another doesn’t work. I like to conceive a painting in real scale and in color.
Nelson Shanks
I have found you an argument; I am not obliged to find you an understanding.
James Boswell
We have an obligation to make things beautiful. Not to leave the world uglier than we found it, not to empty the oceans, not to leave our problems for the next generation.
Neil Gaiman
As I’ve gotten older I’ve occasionally found myself nostalgic for earlier periods of solitude, though I realize that’s also likely a false nostalgia, as I know there was nothing I wanted more during those periods than to not be alone, whatever that means.
Chris Ware
I have tried very hard to find meaning in what I do, but I have found instead a vast and limitless nothingness. I tried to embrace the nothingness, but it slipped through my grasp, and now there is nothing where the nothingness was. This may sound meaningful, but it isn’t.
John S. Hall
True faith is never found alone; it is accompanied by expectation.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Fathers and mothers,” she found herself saying, “leave their mark, no matter if we’ve known them a lifetime or only a day.
Nalini Singh
Malcolm X found the language that communicated across the board, from college professor to floor sweeper, all at the same time, without demeaning the intellect of either.
John Henrik Clarke
Perhaps the best hope for the future of mankind is that ways will be found of increasing the scope and intensity of sympathy.
Bertrand Russell
I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being.
Dalai Lama
The producers had seen “In a World…” and that’s where they found me out and consequently sought me out for this role [in Man up].
Lake Bell
Liberalism provided me with an intellectual satisfaction that I never found in fundamentalism. I became so enamored of the insights of liberalism that I almost fell into the trap of accepting uncritically everything it encompassed.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We must not disguise from ourselves that we go to found a city among strangers and enemies, and he who undertakes such an enterprise should be prepared to become master of the country the first day he lands, or failing in this find everything hostile to him.
Thucydides
I have found that the many imbalances within our individual lives result in an overall more worldly balance. What I mean is that no matter how unfair I think something is, I need only look at the bigger picture to see how, in a way, it fits… however impossible it is to understand it or see it at the time.
Cecelia Ahern
The IRS targeting certain groups for harassment because of their politics would be unfair. If we found out the NSA was keeping special tabs on everyone who worshiped at a mosque or took a Bible trip through the Middle East, you’d have an uprising.
Gail Collins
I once found myself driving, smoking a cigar, taking notes, and talking on the phone at the same time. I only became completely aware of this when I had to shift, and realized something had to give.
Gene Weingarten
Writing is a conversation with reading; a dialogue with thinking. All conversations with older people contain repetition. Some of the ideas mean a lot to me, just interesting, so I both embrace and attack the ideas because I found them, well, delightful.
Nikki Giovanni
Once we have found ourselves, we must understand how from time to time to lose–and then to find–ourselves once again: assuming,that is, that we are thinkers. For a thinker it is a drawback to be bound to a single person all the time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
A number of individuals tried to make my homosexuality a topic of debate. I admittedly found that rather upsetting.
Jens Spahn
That observation which is called knowledge of the world will be found much more frequently to make men cunning than good.
Samuel Johnson
I think sometimes you can grow up with faith, or if you’re just the kind of animal who grabs onto it or doesn’t grab onto it. I wasn’t a big grabbing-onto-it kind of animal. I found my faith to be more about my belief, my spirituality, about nature.
Terry O’Quinn
There were only a few seats left in coach and Bob found himself seated next to a young female fan. ‘I can’t believe I’m sitting next to Bob Dylan!’ she screamed.’Pinch yourself,’ said Bob.”
Bob Dylan
When I am dead, I am certain that the imprint of my love will be found on my heart. It is impossible to worship as I do without leaving some visible trace behind when life is over.
Juliette Drouet
I have found it very important…to let go of my wishes and start hoping.
Henri Nouwen
I think the best article was the article about radical feminists being against transgender women. I found that the most fascinating article and I absolutely loved it. I love battles within the gay community or feminist community. I love radical theorists.
John Waters
Success is found balanced between optimism and realism, where it is unhindered by the weight of pessimism.
Wes Fesler
Sweet serenity is found in fervent prayer. Then, we forget ourselves and remember the reaching hands of the Savior, who said, “Come unto me, all ye that are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” As our burdens are shared with Him, they do become lighter.
Russell M. Nelson
This book is called “Blue Nights” because at the time I began it I found my mind turning increasingly to illness, to the end of promise, the dwindling of the days,the inevitability of the fading, the dying of the brightness. Blue nights are the opposite of the dying of the brightness, but they are also its warning.
Joan Didion
My dear Jesus, my Savior, is so deeply written in my heart, that I feel confident, that if my heart were to be cut open and chopped to pieces, the name of Jesus would be found written on every piece.
Ignatius of Antioch
It will generally be found that men who are constantly lamenting their ill luck are only reaping the consequences of their own neglect, mismanagement, and improvidence, or want of application.
Samuel Smiles
I have actually found myself buying up more and more old analogue gear. I have this strange obsession with old drum machines.
Moby
True Hospitality is welcoming the stranger on her own terms. This kind of hospitality can only be offered by those who’ve found the center of their lives in their own hearts.
Henri Nouwen
A well-read writer, with good taste, is one who has the command of the wit of other men; he searches where knowledge is to be found; and though he may not himself excel in invention, his ingenuity may compose one of those agreeable books, the deliciæ of literature, that will out-last the fading meteors of his day.
Isaac D’Israeli
I want an audience that we might call a pop audience. Cross over to pop. Cross over to R&B. And bring those people to Brubeck and Chick Corea, you dig? A lot of people found Dave Brubeck and Chick Corea because they came to hear ‘We’re in This Love Together’ and ‘After All.’
Al Jarreau
By losing my external things, I found myself. I found something very powerful, very permanent, that I could have with me all the time.
Isha Judd
Education is a process that goes on ’til death. The moment you see someone who knows she has found the one true way, and can call all the others false, then you know you’re in the company of an ignoramus.
Maya Angelou
My own experience as a person with blood type O was that my health, strength, and vitality significantly improved when I became a vegetarian … I have also found a significant number of very healthy vegetarians who are Type O.
Gabriel Cousens
The meaning … of a writer will be found not just in what he intends to say, or what he does literally say, but in the effect of his writing on living beings.
Howard Zinn
This is a story of how a Baggins had an adventure, and found himself doing and saying things altogether unexpected.
J. R. R. Tolkien
That was always the dream, wasn’t it? ‘I wish I’d known then what I know now’? But when you got older you found out that you NOW wasn’t YOU then. You then was a twerp. You then was what you had to be to start out on the rocky road of becoming you now, and one of the rocky patches on that road was being a twerp.
Terry Pratchett
What I wanted was to be allowed to do the thing in the world that I did best – which I believed then and believe now is the greatest privilege there is. When I did that, success found me.
Debbi Fields
Human freedom is not an illusion; it is an objective phenomenon, distinct from all other biological conditions and found in only one species – us.
Daniel Dennett
Through my research, I found that vulnerability is the glue that holds relationships together. It’s the magic sauce.
BrenГ© Brown
Men who believe that, through some exceptional grace or good fortune, they have found God, feel little need of culture.
Agnes Repplier
… in the history of the human mind there has never been a useful thought or a profound truth that has not found its century and admirers.
Madame de Stael
Truth must be sought at all costs, but separate isolated truths will not do. Truth is like life; it has to be taken on its entirety or not at all. . . . We must welcome truth even if it reproaches and inconveniences us — even if it appears in the place where we thought it could not be found.
Fulton J. Sheen
Also, I had not yet found out about time; I was still under the illusion that I had plenty of time – time for this, time for that, time for everything, time to waste.
Joseph Mitchell
The more I was treated as a woman, the more woman I became. A adapted willy-nilly. If I was assumed to be incompetent at reversing cars, or opening bottles, oddly incompetent I found myself becoming. If a case was thought too heavy for me, inexplicably I found it so myself.
Jan Morris
Whenever there was a crisis, I found a man to help me take the edge off the feelings of helplessness and pain.
Susan Cheever
But in general, for the purposes of most novelists, the number of objects genuinely necessary for. . .describing a scene will be found to be very small.
Elizabeth Bowen
I had a born-again experience at the age of 33. As a result of that I found a church where I felt I was being fed properly. I don’t say that as a reflection on Catholicism. But once I was born again, I got an evangelical spirit.
Bill McCartney
I have found in every word a certain musical value, a melody in every thought, harmony in every feeling, and I have tried to interpret the same things with clear and simple words to those who used to listen to my music.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
I don’t think of myself as making art. I do what I do because I want to, because painting is the best way I’ve found to get along with myself.
Robert Rauschenberg
Happiness is found principally in meditation.
Frederick Lenz
The White House has finally found one guy that kinda remembers serving with President Bush in the National Guard. Now they just need to find someone who remembers Bush working on an economic plan. … I think the White House spent more money looking for this guy than finding weapons of mass destruction.
Jay Leno
I had gone to school to work on technique and found it wasn’t something that was really worthwhile to me, although it probably was.
Morgan Freeman
You’ve got to stop doing all the things that people have tried, tested, and found out don’t work…
Michael Dunlop
Chaos is found in greatest abundance wherever order is being sought. It always defeats order, because it is better organized.
Terry Pratchett
I recently went for a walk in a state park and found that some of my favorite trees had collapsed. It makes me feel vulnerable, personally and for my children.
Laura Regan
But the best problem I ever found, I found in my local public library.
Andrew Wiles
Leave people better than you found them.
Marvin J. Ashton
A tip: if you’re invited to your friend’s country club to go the lost and found bin and pretend that you left something there. Next thing you know, you have a fabulous sweater.
Lisa Birnbach
We had a wonderful department that scouted out new music. It was beneficial to Rolling Stone, because I would come back and say, “You have to hear this, you have to hear that,” and I found a lot of bands to feature, emerging bands. It [ended up being] symbiotic.
Jancee Dunn
I feel strongly about the need for diversity, and with good reason. I’m from a generation of women that found it exhilarating to shatter the glass ceiling. We viewed obstacles as opportunities and earned our seat at the leadership table.
Denise Morrison
That’s what I’ve found through yoga: yoga helps us to sort of rewire the mind so that we can literally become more mindful of the conversation we’re having on the back end, what we’re telling ourselves.
MC Yogi
It’s hard not to jump out instead of waiting to be found. It’s hard to be alone so long and then hear someone come around. It’s like some form of skin’s developed in the air that, rather than have torn, you tear. “Hide and Seek
Kay Ryan
The capture of Saddam Hussein has proven to the bad ones, to the guilty ones, to the sinful ones that they cannot run forever. Sooner or later, the other criminals will also be found from their hideouts.
Hamid Karzai
Creative people like to think in unconventional ways, dislike rules, are easily bored, are independent, like to experiment, and enjoy being their own bosses. Basically the same traits found in most criminals and sociopaths
Duncan Long
I went to the root of things, and found nothing but Him alone.
Meera
Through fasting. . .I have found a perfect health, a new state of existence, a feeling of purity and happiness, something unknown to humans.
Upton Sinclair
I found myself in a sea in which the waves of joy and sorrow were clashing against each other.
Naguib Mahfouz
