The Iranians have shot down drones. They tried to destroy the Saudi oil fields. They tried to storm our embassy. So, when my Democratic friends say we need appeasement, well appeasement hasn’t worked. And I think that we’ve learned, with respect to Iran, that weakness invites the wolves.
I think that the Internet is going to be one of the major forces for reducing the role of government. The one thing that’s missing, but that will soon be developed, is a reliable e-cash – a method whereby on the Internet you can transfer funds from A to B without A knowing B or B knowing A.
Few people think more than two or three times a year; I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week.
I think people should be allowed to do anything they want. We haven’t tried that for a while. Maybe this time it’ll work.
I think you should always bear in mind that entropy is not on your side.
If you want street fight, let’s go. If you want boxing, I show you. But people think I am, like, gangster. No. Ring is different world. Very dangerous.
I think the teaching profession contributes more to the future of our society than any other single profession.
Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don’t think that in itself is bad. If used wisely, genetics can be beneficial, but they can be abused, too.
Life is short and the older you get, the more you feel it. Indeed, the shorter it is. People lose their capacity to walk, run, travel, think, and experience life. I realise how important it is to use the time I have.
Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It’s either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it’s Colin.
If you bungle raising your children, I don’t think whatever else you do matters very much.
Learning and innovation go hand in hand. The arrogance of success is to think that what you did yesterday will be sufficient for tomorrow.
I’m not perfect, I just do what I think is right. So if I can’t fulfil people’s expectations, I’m sorry, but it’s not my fault.
I’ve been asked over the years to compile a list of desert-island discs. I couldn’t do that. If I was trapped on a desert island, I don’t think I’d want 10 songs to bring with me.
If we only wanted to be happy, it would be easy; but we want to be happier than other people, and that is almost always difficult, since we think them happier than they are.
If you are given a chance to be a role model, I think you should always take it because you can influence a person’s life in a positive light, and that’s what I want to do. That’s what it’s all about.
Failure isn’t an option. I’ve erased the word ‘fear‘ from my vocabulary, and I think when you erase fear, you can’t fail.
Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard, solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think.
Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all.
I don’t even call them fans. I don’t like that. They’re literally just a part of my life; they’re a part of my family. I don’t think of them as on a lower level than me. I don’t think I’m anything but equal to all of them. So yeah, they’re basically all of my siblings.
Mindset is important, I should always think about finishing games from any position.
The older you get, the more fragile you understand life to be. I think that’s good motivation for getting out of bed joyfully each day.
I read, I study, I examine, I listen, I think, and out of all that I try to form an idea into which I put as much common sense as I can.
As you think, you travel, and as you love, you attract. You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.
I think that’s the single best piece of advice: constantly think about how you could be doing things better and questioning yourself.
I think our life is a journey, and we make mistakes, and it’s how we learn from those mistakes and rebound from those mistakes that sets us on the path that we’re meant to be on.
I’ve always loved great upholstery, and think that a great sofa is one of the most important pieces of furniture in your home.
A lot of country music is sad. I think most art comes out of poverty and hard times. It applies to music. Three chords and the truth – that’s what a country song is. There is a lot of heartache in the world.
You are educated. Your certification is in your degree. You may think of it as the ticket to the good life. Let me ask you to think of an alternative. Think of it as your ticket to change the world.
I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don’t think that’s only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings. I think it really exists and is part of the human condition. I think in the course of your life you figure out ways to deal with that.
I think laughter and stimulating conversation are the things that truly make a romantic evening.
You had better live your best and act your best and think your best today; for today is the sure preparation for tomorrow and all the other tomorrows that follow.
Just getting older, you stop caring what other people think, but also, you know who you are, and you know what you want.
I do think there is a lot of potential if you have a compelling product and people are willing to pay a premium for that. I think that is what Apple has shown. You can buy a much cheaper cell phone or laptop, but Apple’s product is so much better than the alternative, and people are willing to pay that premium.
The story being told in ‘Star Wars‘ is a classic one. Every few hundred years, the story is retold because we have a tendency to do the same things over and over again. Power corrupts, and when you’re in charge, you start doing things that you think are right, but they’re actually not.
Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives.
I think self-discipline is something, it’s like a muscle. The more you exercise it, the stronger it gets.
The main purpose of life is to live rightly, think rightly, act rightly. The soul must languish when we give all our thought to the body.
What we think, we become.
People who have never dealt with depression think it’s just being sad or being in a bad mood. That’s not what depression is for me; it’s falling into a state of grayness and numbness.
In a competition, there’s always winners and losers. And I think everyone is here to win, which makes it fun for us all.
Working 24 hours a day isn’t enough anymore. You have to be willing to sacrifice everything to be successful, including your personal life, your family life, maybe more. If people think it’s any less, they’re wrong, and they will fail.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
I think there ought to be some serious discussion by smart people, really smart people, about whether or not proliferation of things like The Smoking Gun and TMZ and YouTube and the whole celebrity culture is healthy.
People think I am a workaholic but I just love business.
Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favor.
Liquid architecture. It’s like jazz – you improvise, you work together, you play off each other, you make something, they make something. And I think it’s a way of – for me, it’s a way of trying to understand the city, and what might happen in the city.
What is success? I think it is a mixture of having a flair for the thing that you are doing; knowing that it is not enough, that you have got to have hard work and a certain sense of purpose.
Young men think old men are fools; but old men know young men are fools.
Life can be tough sometimes. But I think it just starts with admitting, ‘Okay, the world’s not perfect, how do we live our lives within that and not be miserable?’
The petty man is eager to make boasts, yet desires that others should believe in him. He enthusiastically engages in deception, yet wants others to have affection for him. He conducts himself like an animal, yet wants others to think well of him.
I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.
Positive thinking is the notion that if you think good thoughts, things will work out well. Optimism is the feeling of thinking things will be well and be hopeful.
Not everybody is perfect, and I don’t think we should be looking for perfect people.
It’s very dangerous to wave to people you don’t know because what if they don’t have hands? They’ll think you’re cocky.
I don’t really think, I just walk.
Absolutely, I think every day is a new day, every day is a new opportunity, and every day is a new chance.
Just remember your thoughts control your whole reality. Everything you think of you can accomplish. Your thoughts are your reality. People realize that and everybody would be up.
How we think shows through in how we act. Attitudes are mirrors of the mind. They reflect thinking.
I think that gay marriage should be between a man and a woman.
I never think that people die. They just go to department stores.
I think the power of persuasion would be the greatest superpower of all time.
Ale, man, ale’s the stuff to drink for fellows whom it hurts to think.
Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.
People think modeling‘s mindless, that you just stand there and pose, but it doesn’t have to be that way. I like to have a lot of input. I know how to wear a dress, whether it should be shot with me standing or sitting.
Vintage never fits the way you think it will.
I have learned that only two things are necessary to keep one’s wife happy. First, let her think she’s having her own way. And second, let her have it.
I feel that people are basically trying to do their best in the world. Even when you see people making mistakes, you understand why they’re making a mistake. Everybody has flaws, everybody has demons, everybody has ghosts, but I think you watch people and you see everybody trying to do their best.
I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.
This world is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel.
I think Bitcoin really feels empowering in a sense.
I think money is a wonderful thing because it enables you to do things. It enables you to invest in ideas that don’t have a short-term payback.
I don’t think limits.
Sometimes we fall, sometimes we stumble, but we can’t stay down. We can’t allow life to beat us down. Everything happens for a reason, and it builds character in us, and it tells us what we are about and how strong we really are when we didn’t think we could be that strong.
I hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I always say ‘him’ rather than ‘her.’ Maybe it’s because of my generation, but I don’t like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent male.
I think in art, but especially in films, people are trying to confirm their own existences.
I think I’m a humanist. I believe all humans should have equal rights to live, express, flourish, love and dissent, irrespective of their gender, caste, class, socio-economic strata, disabilities, political stance, religion or faith.
I think and that is all that I am.
The true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality.
I think it’s important to get your surroundings as well as yourself into a positive state – meaning surround yourself with positive people, not the kind who are negative and jealous of everything you do.
Music is everybody’s possession. It’s only publishers who think that people own it.
My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don’t think about it, I just have it.
Let us tenderly and kindly cherish, therefore, the means of knowledge. Let us dare to read, think, speak, and write.
If you don’t think your anxiety, depression, sadness and stress impact your physical health, think again. All of these emotions trigger chemical reactions in your body, which can lead to inflammation and a weakened immune system. Learn how to cope, sweet friend. There will always be dark days.
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this.
I enjoy the time passing. I think it’s a privilege to be in friendship with time.
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Are my politics Democrat or Republican? I think both are horrific. And it doesn’t matter anyway. Money runs America; money runs everywhere.
I think we all need to be able to dream in all colors.
I do not think it is an exaggeration to say history is largely a history of inflation, usually inflations engineered by governments for the gain of governments.
I’m not perfect; no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. I think you try to learn from those mistakes.
Some people think that the truth can be hidden with a little cover-up and decoration. But as time goes by, what is true is revealed, and what is fake fades away.
It is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.
We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
I think we’re going to the moon because it’s in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It’s by the nature of his deep inner soul… we’re required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.
Think for yourself and question authority.
I think I had a kind of pause for insight in my 20s when I wasn’t in a relationship and my career wasn’t going the way I wanted it to go. I had time for reflection then.
One must think like a hero to behave like a merely decent human being.
Because a thing seems difficult for you, do not think it impossible for anyone to accomplish.
Really, every day is the perfect day to boss up. Every day that you wake up is a perfect day to boss up. It’s all about continuing to put one foot in front of the next. That’s what it’s about. Whatever you think you’re going through, just put one foot in front of the next.
I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong?
You have to come to your closed doors before you get to your open doors… What if you knew you had to go through 32 closed doors before you got to your open door? Well, then you’d come to closed door number eight and you’d think, ‘Great, I got another one out of the way’… Keep moving forward.
Good breeding consists in concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person.
Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds.
I think a simple rule of business is, if you do the things that are easier first, then you can actually make a lot of progress.
If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that’s a full day. That’s a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you’re going to have something special.
We’ve got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can’t just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it’s going to get on by itself. You’ve got to keep watering it. You’ve got to really look after it and nurture it.
If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments.
One of the great cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our thought will come true in our experience. When we hold something, anything, in our thought, then somehow coincidence leads us in the direction that we’ve been wishing to lead ourselves.
Think occasionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself the sight.
We have self-centered minds which get us into plenty of trouble. If we do not come to understand the error in the way we think, our self-awareness, which is our greatest blessing, is also our downfall.
The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn’t think they could learn before, and so in a sense it is all about potential.
The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.
I think foosball is a combination of soccer and shish kabobs.
I think we judge talent wrong. What do we see as talent? I think I have made the same mistake myself. We judge talent by people’s ability to strike a cricket ball. The sweetness, the timing. That’s the only thing we see as talent. Things like determination, courage, discipline, temperament, these are also talent.
I think that anybody that smiles automatically looks better.
I don’t see any of my colleagues as rivals. I don’t think our generation needs to do that. We are a chilled out lot, and we should all be happy.
Older women are best, because they always think they may be doing it for the last time.
Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works.
Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
Intuition is the key to everything, in painting, filmmaking, business – everything. I think you could have an intellectual ability, but if you can sharpen your intuition, which they say is emotion and intellect joining together, then a knowingness occurs.
It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me, and I think that’s pretty important.
I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.
I think of myself… as a troubadour, a village storyteller, the guy in the shadows of the campfire.
I think if everyone would write down the funny stories from their own childhoods, the world would be a better place.
No matter how good you are, at some point your kids are gonna have to create their own independence and think that Mom and Dad aren’t cool, just to establish themselves. That’s what adolescence is about. They’re gonna go through that no matter what.
In the end, I think in F1 it is very hard for a girl.
Just think of any negativity that comes at you as a raindrop falling into the ocean of your bliss.
I think electricity will create a new world. I feel like the world will change a lot with electricity, and I wonder how it will change, it’s scary, and it’s going to be fun. I think there are so many things to think about when it comes to electric cars.
I think it would be interesting if old people got anti-Alzheimer‘s disease where they slowly began to recover other people’s lost memories.
Never go to your high school reunion pregnant or they will think that is all you have done since you graduated.
Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are God. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are God.
Everyone talks about building a relationship with your customer. I think you build one with your employees first.
The real problem is not whether machines think but whether men do.
I am one of those who think like Nobel, that humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.
There is good in everything; it’s just how you choose to look at it. Everything that’s worth it has a price. For me to be a model – I had to leave my family. Do you think I liked that? No! There are sacrifices. Life is meant to be a challenge, because challenges are what make you grow.
I think a role model is a mentor – someone you see on a daily basis, and you learn from them.
Each of us has a vision of good and of evil. We have to encourage people to move towards what they think is good… Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.
I think it all comes down to motivation. If you really want to do something, you will work hard for it.
Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people.
I don’t think that one moment in people’s life should define them. Within reason: I emphasise that.
All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again.
I’ve experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows. I think to really appreciate anything you have to be at both ends of the spectrum.
There is a need for aloneness, which I don’t think most people realise for an actor. It’s almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you’ll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you’re acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They’d all like sort of a chunk of you.
Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things, I am tempted to think there are no little things.
We think of our future as anticipated memories.
As our case is new, we must think and act anew.
If God made anything better than women, I think he kept it for himself.
On climate change, we often don’t fully appreciate that it is a problem. We think it is a problem waiting to happen.
I do have a close circle of friends and I am very fortunate to have them as friends. I feel very close to them I think friends are everything in life after your family. You come across lots of people all the time but you only make very few friends and you have to be true to them otherwise what’s the point in life?
I don’t think there’s much a person could say about me. My gangster’s never been on trial.
I think anytime you can affect people in general, in a positive way, then you’re a lucky individual.
I’ve got quite a big gay following. I played a lesbian prostitute in the TV seriesBand Of Gold’ but I think my following really grew when I played one in the film ‘Imagine Me & You,’ with Piper Perabo.
I think anything is possible if you have the mindset and the will and desire to do it and put the time in.
I think being funny is not anyone’s first choice.
I’m obsessed with insects, particularly insect flight. I think the evolution of insect flight is perhaps one of the most important events in the history of life. Without insects, there’d be no flowering plants. Without flowering plants, there would be no clever, fruit-eating primates giving TED Talks.
Embrace your differences and the qualities about you that you think are weird. Eventually, they’re going to be the only things separating you from everyone else.
I don’t think I’ve had love at first sight. But, I’ve definitely had moments where I’ve seen a person, and I’m like, ‘Wow, there is something different about you, and I really want to get to know you.’
One of the things I was taught in law school is that I’d never be able to think the same again – that being a lawyer is something that’s part of who I am as an individual now.
An idea is always a generalization, and generalization is a property of thinking. To generalize means to think.
I think a child should be allowed to take his father‘s or mother’s name at will on coming of age. Paternity is a legal fiction.
If you always think about your dreams or goals, work steadfastly towards them and continue to challenge yourself, you will definitely be able to realise those dreams or goals.
I’m learning to accept myself. I’m still in the process of learning to love who I am. And it’s been really refreshing and really nice to be able to do that and be okay. I think my fans have brought that out in me.
Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven’t half the strength you think they have.
A successful competition for me is always going out there and putting 100 percent into whatever I’m doing. It’s not always winning. People, I think, mistake that it’s just winning. Sometimes it could be, but for me, it’s hitting the best sets I can, gaining confidence, and having a good time and having fun.
I think people who are creative are the luckiest people on earth. I know that there are no shortcuts, but you must keep your faith in something Greater than You, and keep doing what you love. Do what you love, and you will find the way to get it out to the world.
Whenever I have a bad day I just think of these people.
I think it’s difficult to say what exactly made me become a successful DJ. It depends on so many different things. If I were given an award, I would thank my family, friends, Tiesto and the great team behind me for all their support and hard work. Without them, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
I don’t think of myself as a role model. I do try to live in a compassionate, considerate and positive way. The only advice I can offer is to find what you love to do, find the joy in it, and express yourself through your passion.
I’m extremely easy to watch. I think I’m generally handsome, charming.
Whatever you do to gain success, you have to hang in there and hope good things happen. Always think positive.
Only those who attempt the absurd will achieve the impossible. I think it’s in my basementlet me go upstairs and check.
I don’t think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.
We live on this speck called Earth – think about what you might do, today or tomorrow – and make the most of it.
Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought. Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!
I made odd noises as a child. Just did weird things, like turn off light switches twice. I think my parents thought I had Tourette’s syndrome.
Whenever I think of the past, it brings back so many memories.
It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how Nature is. Physics concerns what we say about Nature.
I don’t think art is propaganda; it should be something that liberates the soul, provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further. It celebrates humanity instead of manipulating it.
God is bigger than people think.
You get out of life what you put into it. I think you need a bit of luck but you also make a bit of luck. I think that if you’re a pretty decent person you’ll get back what you put in.
People think that I must be a very strange person. This is not correct. I have the heart of a small boy. It is in a glass jar on my desk.
I think it’s important for little girls growing up, and young women, to have one in every walk of life. So from that point of view, I’m proud to be a role model!
I’m sickened by all religions. Religion has divided people. I don’t think there’s any difference between the pope wearing a large hat and parading around with a smoking purse and an African painting his face white and praying to a rock.
Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think.
Whether you think that you can, or that you can’t, you are usually right.
When you look at the light bulb above you, you remember Thomas Alva Edison. When the telephone bell rings, you remember Alexander Graham Bell. Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize. When you see the blue sky, you think of Sir C.V. Raman.
I think it’s cool to be smart, and I think it’s sexy to be smart.
Time is the most valuable thing on earth: time to think, time to act, time to extend our fraternal relations, time to become better men, time to become better women, time to become better and more independent citizens.
I think it’s easier than ever to hear only what you want to hear. That doesn’t make a good citizen.
I very rarely think in words at all. A thought comes, and I may try to express it in words afterwards.
Great art – or good art – is when you look at it, experience it and it stays in your mind. I don’t think conceptual art and traditional art are all that different.
My father is Italian, and I never met my paternal grandparents. The family name was ‘Caroselli’ and it was changed in the mid ’50s. I think they wanted to assimilate, which was pretty common, although I love the name ‘Caroselli.’
People should debate. They shouldn’t be afraid to talk. You should listen to what other people think and how they make decisions. There should be an exchange of ideas and opinions because that’s how we learn.
Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war.
At the end of the day, I continue to think I can get better, and that’s always my focus.
On a motorcycle, you can’t really think about more than where you are. There’s a freedom that comes with that – from stress, worry, sweating the small stuff.
There is beauty in our roots. Sometimes we think our roots are shameful, and people tell you that you’re no good or your ancestors are no good or that you come from a neighborhood of no hope and terrible crime. But it’s about the beauty of those places, and I carry that with me.
Maturity is the ability to think, speak and act your feelings within the bounds of dignity. The measure of your maturity is how spiritual you become during the midst of your frustrations.
A guru is like a live road map. If you want to walk uncharted terrain, I think it is sensible to walk with a road map.
Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that’s when something snaps up and bites you.
I don’t believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates.
I think there’s something incredibly sexy about a woman wearing her boyfriend‘s T-shirt and underwear.
I think of dieting, then I eat pizza.
Never trust anything that can think for itself if you can’t see where it keeps its brain.
We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.
It doesn’t matter what the colour of your skin is, your sexual preference, the region where you were born, your gender. We’re all equal… We can’t take certain minorities and think they have super powers and are different from the others.
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
I think an eyebrow can change the way you feel. It changes everything about your confidence.
Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!
And above all things, never think that you’re not good enough yourself. A man should never think that. My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning.
We are all shaped by where we grow up, though that shaping takes different forms. I don’t think there’s any doubt that coming of age in Winnipeg both opened my eyes and made me hungry – if I can subvert all claims to be a real writer by mixing metaphors like that.
I think cinema, movies, and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made film were magicians.
It is amazing that people who think we cannot afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, and medication somehow think that we can afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, medication and a government bureaucracy to administer it.
I think all of us have a hero and a villain in us.
When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability… To be alive is to be vulnerable.
I don’t think I am a workaholic. I prefer to keep busy. It is better than the alternative.
I don’t think the human mind can comprehend the past and the future. They are both just illusions that can manipulate you into thinking theres some kind of change.
When you want something so badly, you just do it. You don’t think about how hard it’s going to be.
I sometimes think that God in creating man somewhat overestimated his ability.
The guilty think all talk is of themselves.
If you don’t think every day is a good day, just try missing one.
Cavett Robert
When we believe the best of people, we let go of each thing they do that is hurtful to us. And we choose to think things like, ‘I don’t believe they meant to hurt me.’ ‘Maybe they’re having a bad day or don’t feel well.’ ‘They probably don’t even realize how they sound.’
The more I think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more artistic than to love others.
What we think determines what happens to us, so if we want to change our lives, we need to stretch our minds.
I like to think of ideas as potential energy. They’re really wonderful, but nothing will happen until we risk putting them into action.
I think we risk becoming the best informed society that has ever died of ignorance.
I think part of maturity is knowing who you are.
People can judge me for what I’ve done. And I think when somebody’s out in the public eye, that’s what they do. So I’m fully comfortable with who I am, what I stand for, and what I’ve always stood for.
Remember happiness doesn’t depend upon who you are or what you have; it depends solely on what you think.
Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.
I don’t believe in an afterlife, so I don’t have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse.
When people push back on you and don’t think you can do it, and you struggle a little bit and wonder if they’re right, it drives you to be successful and to be a great player.
You play the hand you’re dealt. I think the game’s worthwhile.
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.
Better remain silent, better not even think, if you are not prepared to act.
I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family – and I don’t think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.
I wake up every day and I think, ‘I’m breathing! It’s a good day.’
There are quite a lot of YouTube clips of me that have gone viral. One that I think of is of a young woman at a lecture I was giving – she came from Liberty University, which is a ludicrous religious institution. She said, ‘What if you are wrong?’ and I answered that rather briefly, and that’s gone viral.
I mean, I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money.
If you think in terms of a year, plant a seed; if in terms of ten years, plant trees; if in terms of 100 years, teach the people.
I think the healthy way to live is to make friends with the beast inside oneself, and that means not the beast but the shadow. The dark side of one’s nature. Have fun with it and you know, is to accept everything about ourselves.
Humans think in stories, and we try to make sense of the world by telling stories.
Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the greatest heresy to think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin; to say that you are weak, or others are weak.
I think everybody’s nuts.
People don’t want to go to the dump and have a picnic, they want to go out to a beautiful place and enjoy their day. And so I think our job is to try to take the environment, take what the good Lord has given us, and expand upon it or enhance it, without destroying it.
For me, I think one of the biggest battles is mentally. You have good days, and you have bad days. Randomly, you’ll feel good for weeks, and then all of a sudden, you’ll have a bad day where you’re really sore. And you end up questioning yourself, like, ‘Am I doing the right thing? Why is this so hard?’
I think we all have our own personality, unique and distinctive, and at the same time, I think that our own unique and distinctive personality blends with the wind, with the footsteps in the street, with the noises around the corner, and with the silence of memory, which is the great producer of ghosts.
I think frugality drives innovation, just like other constraints do. One of the only ways to get out of a tight box is to invent your way out.
What other people think of you is none of your business.
I think anybody who is interested in keeping their money safe from the criminal banking system would want gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
One of the funny things about the stock market is that every time one person buys, another sells, and both think they are astute.
It’s always hard to deal with injuries mentally, but I like to think about it as a new beginning. I can’t change what happened, so the focus needs to go toward healing and coming back stronger than before.
With all of the bad things that are happening in the world right now, I think we need a message of togetherness and true unity. I believe that starts with personal reflection and then we can find kindness toward each other.
I don’t react to a tragic happening any more. I took so many bad things as a kid and some people think I don’t care about anything. It’s just too hard for me to get emotional. I can’t cry no more.
What we wish, we readily believe, and what we ourselves think, we imagine others think also.
I think the person who takes a job in order to live – that is to say, for the money – has turned himself into a slave.

Let us ask ourselves, ‘What kind of people do we think we are?’ And let us answer, ‘Free people, worthy of freedom and determined not only to remain so but to help others gain their freedom as well.’
War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.
I think we need more idiot control.
I think that a good movie creates its own world, and that world needn’t refer to anything that’s real. If it’s consistent, if it’s entertaining, if it’s interesting, it justifies its being there.
You say to a brick, ‘What do you want, brick?’ And brick says to you, ‘I like an arch.’ And you say to brick, ‘Look, I want one, too, but arches are expensive and I can use a concrete lintel.’ And then you say: ‘What do you think of that, brick?’ Brick says: ‘I like an arch.’
If you want to conquer fear, don’t sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
I personally think if something’s not a challenge, there’s no point doing it, because you’re not gonna learn much.
I think if someone gets kicked in the face it is their fault – they watched the foot come towards their face.
Think 100 times before you take a decision, But once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man.
I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success… such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.
I think I’m a natural-born leader. I know how to bow down to authority if it’s authority that I respect.
If I see a problem, I like to think if there’s a better way to do it.
If you think technology can solve your security problems, then you don’t understand the problems and you don’t understand the technology.
The only thing that will make you happy is being happy with who you are, and not who people think you are.
Life is so fresh, life is every day so new if we are fighting, only for the best. Sometimes I think the only real satisfaction in life is failure, failure in your endeavor to do your best.
Persuasion is achieved by the speaker‘s personal character when the speech is so spoken as to make us think him credible. We believe good men more fully and more readily than others: this is true generally whatever the question is, and absolutely true where exact certainty is impossible and opinions are divided.
I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.
I think togetherness is a very important ingredient to family life.
If you must have motivation, think of your paycheck on Friday.
Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
I think scars are like battle wounds – beautiful, in a way. They show what you’ve been through and how strong you are for coming out of it.
You may be sure that the Americans will commit all the stupidities they can think of, plus some that are beyond imagination.
Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!
What brings you closer to God is being in service to others. I think any religion or spiritual way of life will indicate that service to others will lead to a connection with a higher power.
I am who I am and I say what I think. I’m not putting a face on for the record.

The thought of being President frightens me and I do not think I want the job.
This world, after all our science and sciences, is still a miracle wonderful, inscrutable, magical and more, to whosoever will think of it.
When ‘Top Gun’ came out, my sisters were like, ‘Oh, my God, ‘Top Gun!’ Tom Cruise!’ And I very confidently said, ‘I’m going to marry him one day.’ It wasn’t like, ‘How do I get to Tom Cruise?’ It was just, ‘I think I’m going to marry him. Why not? He’ll like me. I’m fun.’
Think about what people are doing on Facebook today. They’re keeping up with their friends and family, but they’re also building an image and identity for themselves, which in a sense is their brand.

I think same sex couples should be able to get married.
The hardest thing about winning is to continue to win, and I think human instinct says ‘OK, I’ve done this before. I got it, let’s just keep doing what we’re doing.’
The important thing is not what they think of me, but what I think of them.
Those who give themselves to prayer should in a special manner have always a devotion to St. Joseph; for I know not how any man can think of the Queen of the angels, during the time that she suffered so much with the Infant Jesus, without giving thanks to St. Joseph for the services he rendered them then.
You have to think big to be big.
A lot of people think the path to success is a straight line, but it’s not. It has got many turns and curves, and you just got to go with the ebbs and flows of it all.

I think the worst thing you can do about a situation is nothing.
Really, I don’t care if people think I’m too skinny. This is my body. If they don’t like it, screw it.
I have very short hair. It’s the only cute haircut I think I’ve ever had.
The greatest error of a man is to think that he is weak by nature, evil by nature. Every man is divine and strong in his real nature. What are weak and evil are his habits, his desires and thoughts, but not himself.

I honestly think it is better to be a failure at something you love than to be a success at something you hate.
I learned that we can do anything, but we can’t do everything… at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything.

Think where man’s glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends.
I think it’s better to feel good than to look good.

Think of it this way: If you got a flat tire, what would you do? Change the tire? Or get out of the car and slash the other three tires? No! Get back on the road. Don’t dwell on it; don’t beat yourself up. That gets you nowhere.
I think; therefore I am.
I won this award for keeping my mouth shut, so I think I’ll do it again now.
Jane Wyman
When you don’t dress like everybody else, you don’t have to think like everybody else.
Everybody born comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory. We come from the Creator with creativity. I think that each one of us is born with creativity.
I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.
Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure. The way you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You are overcome by the fact because you think you are.
I think people should have fun. And don’t get so down on yourself. Enjoy life and be the best person you can be.
It’s discouraging to think how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit.
I disagree with people who think you learn more from getting beat up than you do from winning.
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.
Life is busy. There are daily concerns and obligations that have to be met, and to take time to think about how precious and special a human life is that you only get one, and that every wasted minute is lost. You can’t get it back.
Revenge is a sorrow for the person who has to take it on. And the person who is rash enough to think it’s going to help a situation is always wrong.
I think there’s no limit to ambition, and if you want something, you can make anything happen, so go for it.
There’s nobody in the world like me. I think every decade has an iconic blonde, like Marilyn Monroe or Princess Diana and, right now, I’m that icon.
I have no right, by anything I do or say, to demean a human being in his own eyes. What matters is not what I think of him; it is what he thinks of himself. To undermine a man’s self-respect is a sin.
Like with any good art form, if you can entertain people and make them think, it’s an honor. It’s just an honor to be a comedian.

Eventually, I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city left in the world.
I think that the United States and the Philippines have always had a good relationship with each other.

And I don’t see any problem with that at all.
Those who know how to think need no teachers.
I think it’s my adventure, my trip, my journey, and I guess my attitude is, let the chips fall where they may.
The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.

Some days I think I look kind of cute, but other days I try to avoid the mirror.
I think it makes sense to believe in God, but exactly what decision in your life you make differently because of it, I don’t know.
Instead of being concerned that you have no office, be concerned to think how you may fit yourself for office. Instead of being concerned that you are not known, seek to be worthy of being known.
Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.
