I think tennis is going towards the direction of powerful, hard hitters, and that’s what us tall people are. We are trying to play very aggressive; we’re trying to make a lot of winners, and, I mean, I don’t know. That’s what tall players kind of do.

The older I get, I’m definitely getting pulled towards the West Coast, because it’s a different quality of life. New York is great when you’re in your early 20s and you’re running around and it’s really fun, but it’s a place for me to get things done.

There tends to be a jealousy in England towards countries that are successful.

Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good things towards you.

I love Madonna! If you want to see the Madonna I know, just go on YouTube and you’ll see those early interviews before the record came out. She was giddy and wonderful and giggly and happy and so excited looking towards the future.

Life is too short to harbor any hostilities towards anybody.
Try harder to be better and the universe will work towards giving you more happiness.
I don’t like political poetry, and I don’t write it. If this question was pointing towards that, I think it is missing the point of the American tradition, which is always apolitical, even when the poetry comes out of politically active writers.
Folklore has a moral center to it. Folklore is always, always, always on the side of the underdog, and children have a natural instinct towards justice. They feel indignation at needless cruelty and wistfulness about acts of mercy and kindness.
What do they call it, Y.O.L.A., you only live once? I think people are sort of gravitating towards that.
If a violent act towards a woman takes place, and the inspiration for that act is violence in cinema, the inspiration for that act would have come from somewhere else if movies didn’t exist.
If I play all the IPL games the whole season, I do get a bit tired towards the end.

I have a tendency to lean towards a more retro look.
You don’t really get to pick and chose what you would like to be doing. But I’ve been very fortunate, and I think water seeks its own level. You do gravitate towards things that you would get off on.
I would get bullied a lot. You know, it was the ’70s and ’80s, so it was a lot of racism back then towards Indian people. And it wasn’t actual hatred, it was just that blind, ‘Let’s pick on that guy.’ You know, and you’ve got to figure that I was a very small kid. And I had a big mouth, so I’m sure that didn’t help.
The biggest challenge was trying to convey the story of the making of a film that isn’t finished yet – and which won’t be finished until the third film, The Return of the King, reaches our cinemas towards the end of 2003!
I think what we all have to do is make this big leap towards renewables. And it has to be a solution where you’re actually building the answer; and it has to be built faster than the natural gas industry can build their answer.
The path towards a free society has not been simple. There are tragic and glorious pages in our history.
In general, the objects in the universe that are very high-energy objects, or the processes that are high-energy processes, will radiate more in the short wavelength range towards the gamma rays or the x-rays.
She was scrubbing furiously at a line of grease spots which led from the stove towards the door to the dining-room. That was where Henry had held the platter tilted as he carried the steak in yesterday. And yet if she had warned him once about that, she had a thousand times!
Our priority must be to build a path towards balancing the budget, and we cannot tolerate growing deficits.
The water system in this country is overwhelmed, and we aren’t putting enough resources towards this essential resource. We simply can’t continue to survive with toxic drinking water.

You can’t go fighting everyone that’s harsh towards you.

I realize that patriotism is not enough. I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone.
We’ll continue to hold America to the standard it says on paper that we’re all created equal because it’s not that way right now. But we’re going to keep pushing towards that.
In awe, I watched the waxing moon ride across the zenith of the heavens like an ambered chariot towards the ebony void of infinite space wherein the tethered belts of Jupiter and Mars hang, for ever festooned in their orbital majesty. And as I looked at all this I thought… I must put a roof on this toilet.
I’m interested in exploring the places where all media meet. As TV, Internet, art, games and movies all start moving towards the same point, I want to be part of inventing that space. I’d like to explore media that are traditionally seen as part of the mainstream but not necessarily utilize mainstream formulas.
I think people feel threatened by homosexuality. The problem isn’t about gay people, the problem is about the attitude towards gay people. People think that all gays are Hannibal Lecters. But gay people are sons and daughters, politicians and doctors, American heroes and daughters of American heroes.
I’ve always liked shape-shifter characters. I gravitated towards characters like Mystique from ‘X-Men,’ Zam Wesell from ‘Star Wars,’ and Tonks from ‘Harry Potter.’

The American attitude towards efficiency and execution should always underlie architecture.
In Atlanta, my mom came and came downstairs and we were talking like behind the crowd. People from the crowd saw me and started running towards me, asking for pictures and stuff. This girl asked for a picture, and after she got it, she passed out.
I’m always drawn towards the darker stuff, because I think it’s just a lot more interesting. But it’s also good fun doing the comedy, and I think that’s why ‘Misfits’ has been great in that way, as you get a really good balance. I think it’s best to try and do everything as an actor, really.
I am dominated by one thing, an irresistible, burning attraction towards the abstract.
To be honest, I think I am making normal games targeted towards normal people. But ultimately when I release those normal games, weird people find them to be weird games and enjoy them. Which probably means there’s something wrong with me.
I gravitate towards happy music. I love the Beach Boys.
The really interesting moment will be when you have a critical mass of people engaging through the networks, more than through the press and TV. When that happens, the culture of politics has to change, moving away from controlled one-way messages towards a political culture that is more questioning.

While we were at work there came nine or 10 of the natives to a small hill a little way from us, and stood there menacing and threatening of us, and making a great noise. At last one of them came towards us, and the rest followed at a distance.
I’m obsessive about the kind of melodrama of getting through the days and trying to make them good and funny and a happy experience. But my feeling towards the fans is that they delivered me from darkness.

I’m politically inclined towards the left, but I don’t like to be in anyone’s gang; I’m a bit of a loose cannon.
I was suited for fame, and I mean that in the most non-egocentric way. I don’t mind gearing my life towards privacy. It’s my nature.

My life will change, because I want it to change; and also because this is something I’m committed to doing and that I believe my life has been leading towards.
The meaning of things lies not in the things themselves, but in our attitude towards them.
The more horrific works came out of a feeling that everyone accepted my stuff too easily. I was deliberately trying to be antagonistic towards collectors and critics.
When the world’s moving towards being the most inclusive it’s ever been, it’s unthinkable that certain basic aspects of life are still so unfair for the black community.
The most important thing is, how can I move forward towards something that I can’t articulate, that is new in storytelling with moving images and sound?

I always wanted to be an entrepreneur so, I am looking forward to that journey and I am working hard towards it.
A consumption tax, a national sales tax makes some sense. But I think that if we move towards a Fair Tax, if we move towards a national sales tax, we have to make sure that we do away with the income tax.
I just wanna start a brand that inspires and is geared towards youth.
I like doing small parts, because I don’t feel I’m that practised in acting. It’s like making baby steps towards a bigger goal.
The music that I listen to on set really varies. When I need lots of energy and I’m dying down towards the day, I need to play hip hop or rap or else my energy just crashes after a long day. When I’m shooting something moody or where I have to play it down a bit, I’ll play Lana Del Rey or something more mellow.
Legislation has been and is still directed towards the protection of wealth, rather than towards the far more important interests of labor on which everything of value to mankind depends.
If I steal money from any person, there may be no harm done from the mere transfer of possession; he may not feel the loss, or it may prevent him from using the money badly. But I cannot help doing this great wrong towards Man, that I make myself dishonest.
I had a normal upbringing, studied in Chaitanya Vidyalaya till class VIII, went to Australia for two years, returned and did my Inter at Oakridge. I wasn’t inclined towards academics. I barely scraped through.
I read so slow. If I have a script, I’m going to read it five times slower than any other actor, but I’ll be able to tell you everything in it. It kills me that there are standardized tests geared towards just one kind of child.
I think there’s a danger that we’re moving towards a state where the people we are expected to admire are almost not human anymore, and I don’t like that. I prefer it when someone looks like a nice person, and you think, ‘I could have a laugh with them in the pub.’
I have been naturally inclined towards mountains, trees, flowers, and rivers.
I never felt any attraction towards violence. I never tried to express myself through violence. Violence is a language.
I fall in love with contradictions without understanding. I can’t really portray them unless I do. So in a roundabout way I have to fall in love, it’s my duty. If love is about understanding and understanding is compassion and compassion is love, I have to have compassion towards the world.
I think that one of the reasons why people look towards the end of humanity is that people are afraid to die alone. If you die alone, the people you love will miss you, or if they die, you miss them – the sorrow is inevitable. When you truly love someone, the thought of losing them forever is horrible.

From food security to housing, from job creation to healthcare, from financial inclusion to insurance – we have adopted a holistic approach towards social welfare.
The last scene in ‘Moonlight,’ that’s one of the most extraordinary things I’ve ever seen on film in my lifetime. You see two men showing such tenderness towards each other. And it’s bold; it’s deep. It’s complex. It’s profound.
We moved leisurely towards Mount Foster, on the 22nd, and arrived opposite to it a little before sunset.
At the heart of globalisation is a new kind of intolerance in the West towards other cultures, traditions and values, less brutal than in the era of colonialism, but more comprehensive and totalitarian.

I have never seen a connection between cinematic violence towards women and actual violence towards women in society.
When I drank, I had a very different attitude towards my playing. It was sloppier but I kind of liked it that way. It was like the alcohol was telling my mind what to do.

Henceforth, language studies were no longer directed merely towards correcting grammar.

I went to the premiere of The Detective with Sinatra, and perhaps people jumped to conclusions. He was very protective towards me and never came on to me sexually.
I probably prefer comedy. Why? I’m not sure. I feel like the energy of a comedy is a better fit for me. I try to be a happy guy! It seems that most of my life has the energy more for a comedy than for drama. I’m grateful to do both, but I would have to lean towards the comedy side of acting.
My goal was always to be recognized as a good actor but no one was interested in that, simply because society just wants to warm towards your appearance. This is the great blemish of society.

If what you are doing is not moving you towards your goals, then it’s moving you away from your goals.
We are not at the same place we were in 1973. This country today is drifting, moving steadily towards the pro-life position because the data is with us.
Most people in business and within their personal lives move towards complexity. More To Dos. More projects. More products. More meetings. More possessions. More goals. The best – I suggest to you – move in the opposite direction.
To work our way towards a shared language once again, we must first learn how to discover patterns which are deep, and capable of generating life.
It is not really our country so much is the problem, it’s sort of the parasitic relationship that Canada, and France, and other countries have towards us.
My marks were always bad, and I was a bad influence on other children, so they would explain to my mother that they could retain me only by being partial towards me, and so I should offer to leave the school myself. I would barely get 40-50% and was also extremely naughty.
I’ve always gravitated towards opera, and the Royal Opera House is quite possibly the greatest opera house on earth.
I equate fame towards people who know your work, people who will see your work. But all that stuff, like with the Genies and stuff like that, it was so much fun. It’s so much fun and it’s nice when it comes, but that’s not what it’s all about.
I always wanted to create awareness and spread the word that it is important to respect one’s own body and work towards its well-being.
I don’t bear any bitterness towards anyone.

A lot of YouTubers, because they have such pride in what they do, have a negative connotation towards television. I don’t feel that way. I feel like it’s another medium to reach a broader audience.
Crisis and pressure help foster change – that’s why I’m not so pessimistic towards crises.
With the theatre, your whole day is geared towards the evening’s show, and that’s the job. People usually go to work about 9 and come home around 5, or maybe 7.
Being a medical practitioner enables me to get in touch with people, understand their problems, feel sympathetic towards them, and the natural thing is to want to help them, and if you become a politician and if you are successful, you can help them even more.
The hands of every clock are shears, trimming us away scrap by scrap, and every time piece with a digital readout blinks us towards implosion.
I believe that nationalism is a very strong force, but there are other forces operating; there are tendencies pushing towards a larger picture, especially in Europe, I think; but I still think nationalism is real.
As far as being satisfied, I just don’t think you should work towards being satisfied. If everybody were satisfied, we’d never get anything done.
If you don’t go towards the thing you fear, you won’t be able to say you lived.
Since 9/11, the Bush administration has used that tragic event as a justification to rip up our constitution and our civil liberties. And I honestly believe that one or two 9/11s, and martial law will be declared in our country and we’re inching towards a police state.
The judge turned his back towards me, sitting back on his judge’s chair, while I was in the witness stand being questioned. The whole courtroom was full of these anarchists, leftists, communists and Jewish lobbyists.
Today’s global landscape is increasingly interconnected. China and the Middle East play critical roles towards international peace and security.
When you do films after films, you don’t let life happen. At least, in my case, I end up relying too much on emotions, which aren’t raw enough. Travel helps me to get a renewed approach towards things.
On embarking to return we could perceive no sign of One Tree Island; and as we swept down towards the sea the leafy top of a tree seen in the clear water under the boat was the only evidence of its existence; though a few hours ago it had formed so prominent an object.
The place of chess in the society is closely related to the attitude of young people towards our game.

The championship always goes to the team that wins the most rounds and is the most prepared. I think everybody on our team works hard towards keeping that goal. Time will tell if we’re prepared or not.
Although there’s an inherent light-heartedness to ‘Sherlock,’ I slightly err towards not doing the comedy.
Do not think too much of the dead husk of your friend, or mourn too much over it, but send your thoughts out towards the real soul or self which has escaped – to reach it.

A fitting external security environment could also play an important role in promoting social consensus and institutionalization towards democratization.
As we move towards resolution and understanding and greater serenity in all aspects of our life, love’s pretty elemental and that’s nice to know. I think rock ‘n’ roll is the same. I don’t pretend to understand it; it feels confusing and frightening and wonderful.
I do think that we’re gonna move towards this world where eventually you’ll be able to capture a whole experience that you’re in and be able to send that to someone.
We are pushing towards the dream of having our independent state with Jerusalem as its capital. If there is a real project that aims to resolve the Palestinian cause on establishing a Palestinian state on 1967 borders, under full Palestinian sovereignty, we will support it.
I miss ‘EastEnders.’ I loved it. But I was exhausted when I left. They asked me to go back recently – they’ve asked a few times. I am tempted!

Freedom in art, freedom in society, this is the double goal towards which all consistent and logical minds must strive.
Intelligent policies will be largely self-regulating in the sense that the system of incentives and standards makes it absolutely ludicrous to not move towards clean, internalized systems of cost and production.

Philosophers are very severe towards other philosophers because they expect too much.
Unfortunately, the attitude of many towards the press, humanitarians included and especially government workers, is often one of suspicion, if not outright fear.

A diplomatic peace is not yet the real peace. It is an essential step in the peace process leading towards a real peace.
People are complicated. Our behavior towards one another is strange. So I like opportunities to investigate that.
I just had lunch with Slash two days ago. He loves Axl. He holds no grudges towards him. Twenty years of great music wasn’t created because of some stupid grudge. That’s a shame.
We feel an enormous sense of gratitude towards the American people.
The deeper the blue becomes, the more strongly it calls man towards the infinite, awakening in him a desire for the pure and, finally, for the supernatural… The brighter it becomes, the more it loses its sound, until it turns into silent stillness and becomes white.
If we know that our own men are in a condition to attack, but are unaware that the enemy is not open to attack, we have gone only halfway towards victory.
They are just 100 per cent bear, whereas human beings feel we’re not 100 per cent human, that we’re always letting ourselves down. We’re constantly striving towards something, to some fulfilment.
I definitely strive towards something I think of as a hallucination of music. That’s always been the OPN vibe. I think of it as mostly a felt thing, and a koan of feeling that is shared between me and OPN fans. We know what it is when it gets there.
Yoga is about compassion and generosity towards others. It means being mindful of the world around us.
I’m extremely confident. I do believe my own hype. And I’m working towards making it true.

While the vast majority of hackers may be disinclined towards violence, it would only take a few to turn cyber terrorism into reality.

What distinguishes a commons is that it is not private property, does not have a price, and is oriented towards ‘use value’ rather than ‘exchange value.’ It does not exist to generate profits.
There is a lot of snobbery towards pop music, to me and pop in general – it’s kind of a despised art form.
Guardiola took the decision to not play me in the DFB-Pokal final. He did not want me to win the trophy as top scorer, so he did not let me play during the end of the season. It was not really so important for me, but I felt it was a lack of respect towards me.
We are moving towards a new form of collective intelligence.
I worked my butt off in high school and received a lot of scholarships for college and to throw all that away for acting was tough for my family, but it was just something I felt my heart pulling me towards and don’t regret a single minute of it. I love to act!
I’ve never really understood attachment to a place for reasons of birth. That my mother happened to give birth to me in a certain place doesn’t, to my mind, justify any thankfulness towards that place. It could have been anywhere.

I wanted a name I could shape the music towards. I was going to Miami quite a lot at the time, speaking a lot of Spanish with my friends from Cuba – ‘Lana Del Rey’ reminded us of the glamour of the seaside. It sounded gorgeous coming off the tip of the tongue.
I am a writer who works from an outline. What I generally do when I build an outline is I find focal, important scenes, and I build them in my head and I don’t write them yet, but I build towards them.
The whole order of nature evinces a progressive march towards a higher life.

When you have 20,000 people yelling and screaming at you, four other guys can concentrate on the floor. So every time I touch the basketball and everyone is yelling and chanting and doing things towards me, well, four other guys can concentrate.

A common language is a first step towards communication across cultural boundaries.
The newspaper is, in fact, very bad for one’s prose style. That’s why I gravitated towards feature stories where you get a little more leeway in the writing style.
Before I worked on film, I studied the theatre, and I expected that I would spend my whole career in theatre. Gradually, I started writing for the cinema. However, I feel grateful towards the theatre. I love working with spectators, and I love this experience with the theatre, and I like theatre culture.
Some people have human muses – mine is a city. I feel a startling ambivalence towards London, but for better or worse my work has come utterly to depend upon it.

When I hear anything derogatory towards the Raiders, I am definitely hurt.
I sincerely want to help create beauty in the world and move a culture of separateness back towards community. I really, really do, and I think art is a powerful way of doing that.
Trajectories aren’t linear. Life’s just a roller coaster. If you’re getting a chance to do cool stuff, and it’s varied stuff, just enjoy it. I guess I’m a believer in the randomness of life rather than it being a linear trajectory or an arc, a consistent smooth arc, towards anything.
I have often thought that one of the less attractive traits of various professional bodies and institutions is the deeply ingrained suspicion and outright hostility which can exist towards anything unorthodox or unconventional.
