Danica Patrick quotes

I take none of that to heart. I don't feel like there's anything that I need to do for anybody else. I want to win bad enough for myself anyway, that nothing anybody can say can make me want to win any more.

You know, it's always good to have seen a track before, just to kind of know where the little bumps are here and there, and just the general feel for the size.

To be honest, once you've driven around for about five, 10 laps, you don't notice a difference.

I mean, you've kind of got the track down, especially with ovals. The only thing that improves is that when race conditions come, you know what to expect slightly more from the track and from your car.

I feel like, sometimes, people, because of the amount of media, because of the amount of attention, people seem to think I have to do things. Like, I have to win right now! But I don't feel like that.

Antonio Tabucchi quotes

I don't go for people who lead full and satisfying lives.

But democracy isn't a state of perfection. It has to be improved, and that means constant vigilance.

As a writer, I've always been interested in others.

I don't know whether these people are going to find themselves, but as they live their lives they have no choice but to face up to the image others have of them. They're forced to look at themselves in a mirror, and they often manage to glimpse something of themselves.

People with lots of doubts sometimes find life more oppressive and exhausting than others, but they're more energetic - they aren't robots.

Top 5 quotes by Chow Yun-Fat

I couldn't care less about actors' trailers and food on sets and stuff like that - I just want to act.

An actor is only merchandise.

This is still a big barrier for me and it is for a lot of foreign actors.

Some of the substance of English words, I just don't understand at all because the culture's so strange to me.

Working in front of the camera keeps me alive.

Tom Stoppard quotes

Every exit is an entrance somewhere else.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

Age is a high price to pay for maturity.

We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.

Revolution is a trivial shift in the emphasis of suffering.

Sellapan Ramanathan quotes

China also has moved away from its original status of purely producing basic, what you call, consumer commodities and Chinese companies are moving beyond China to various parts of the world.

We are each other's seventh largest trading partner, we are the fifth largest investor there and likewise, we have a lot of exchanges between political leaders, businessmen, tourists and school children too.

Well, as you've said, we cannot expect the people of China not to want to progress, so if you have an opportunity to progress, to develop your economy to a world class economy, it's an aspiration that is natural and that, I welcome.

Well, you have a defence attache here, that's a step forward. Your Defence Minister has been here, our defence people have exchanges with you. So friendly relations at the military level are already in existence.

Well, the important message that we've always carried to China is that we look forward to your progress and prosperity, we look forward to you playing a role in the progress and prosperity of this region and we look forward to stability in your relations with others.

John Cale quotes

If you're all loaded up on love, you haven't got anywhere else to go.

I'm content with making records, but I don't want to be doing the same thing all the time.

I'm impatient. I get twitchy. When I get that feeling I just go out and make something happen.

The avant-garde makes more sense to me.

We gave up on the idea of trying to make the record a good representation of the live performance.

Famous quote by Mary Lamb

A child is fed with milk and praise.

Jessica Lange quotes

To stay interested in acting, I have to keep trying stuff I've never done before.

When I am home for like a two-year stretch, I get antsy, because I want to work.

One of the things I love about acting is that it reveals a certain something about yourself, but it doesn't reveal your own personal story.

To my mind the election was stolen by George Bush and we have been suffering ever since under this man's leadership.

I have been a waitress, and I was a damn fine waitress too, let me tell you.

Angela Lansbury quotes

Mystery is something that appeals to most everybody.

I started in London, as a kid. My mother knew I had sort of an inbred talent. She was an actress, so I inherited it from her. But I think I got a lot of it from my grandfather, who was a great politician.

I don't think about going back to the theater.

Here I am, I still go on, you know, like the tides.

I never regretted what I turned down.

Maynard James Keenan quotes

Adam does most of the work when it comes to videos and he basically does the same as I do with the lyrics. The videos are his visual interpretations of our music.

I would hope they would be our fellow artists, rather than trying to emulate or idolize clowns like us.

A lot of names in America and Europe have their roots in Latin and Greek words. A lot of them go back to archetypes and their stories.

Just in general, any government throughout history hasn't really wanted its people to be educated, because then they couldn't control them as easily.

We're five people, five individuals who came together to create something, to make music and to complete each other musically, to form a perfect circle.

When I was coming up, I just wanted to play baseball and I'm doing what I love to do most. How can I feel pressure doing what I love to do?

Famous quote by Alexis deTocqueville

Christianity is the companion of liberty in all its conflicts - the cradle of its infancy, and the divine source of its claims.

Janet Jackson quotes

Big sisters and brothers... I am telling you, it never changes.

In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and wisdom that separates us, don't let your eyes deceive you.

It was the Control album that was really about what I wanted to do.

People do see me as sweet and innocent. Not to say that I am not those things. But I have other sides to me.

I kinda see everyone as competition. I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good. Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.

Quotes by Clarence Day

Information's pretty thin stuff unless mixed with experience.

You can't sweep other people off their feet, if you can't be swept off your own.

Creatures whose mainspring is curiosity enjoy the accumulating of facts far more than the pausing at times to reflect on those facts.

If your parents didn't have any children, there's a good chance that you won't have any.

Bob Marley quotes

Well, me don't swim too tough so me don't go in the water too deep.

He (Bob Marley) had this idea, it was kind of a virologist idea, he believed he could cure racism and hate, literally cure it by injecting music and love into people's lives. One day he was scheduled to perform at a peace concert, gunmen came to his house and shot him down. Two days later he walked out on that stage and sang. Somebody asked him why. He said the people who were trying to make this world worse are not taking a day off. How can I? Light up the darkness.

Don't let them fool ya,
A-yin the darkness there must come out to light.

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds.

One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

Donnie Wahlberg quotes

For young filmmakers, Saw is a perfect film. It doesn't cost the GNP of almost every country of the world.

With the Internet, kids today learn things quicker than we do and they have everything there is to see, so you have to do more than just remake some old '70s film.

If you are succesfull for 20 years, you can't expect to stay on the same level all through that period. A career has its ups and downs and in-betweens.

It's not hard to keep up the image we chose. It's not hard to stay yourselves.

I'm a fan of good horror movies.

Top 5 quotes by Miguel de Icaza

We have a lot of existing customers which are also considering Linux desktop migrations and rolling out some of these programs, so we're learning from them.

Well Microsoft really does develop some really interesting technology.

I've never worked with the Java community.

Not to go too far, but Microsoft is probably used by most people out there.

We've been using C and C++ way too much - they're nice, but they're very close to the machine and what we wanted was to empower regular users to build applications for Linux.
