Concerned we're in a time where politicians can't even fake sincerity. Aren't they supposed to be good at that?
Bob Saget
Image
Every boy was supposed to come into the world equipped with a father whose prime function was to be our father and show us how tobe men. He can escape us, but we can never escape him. Present or absent, dead or alive, real or imagined, our father is the main man in our masculinity.
Frank Pittman

The goal in life is to discover that you’ve always been where you were supposed to be.
Aldous Huxley
Image
But a priest's life is not supposed to be well-rounded it is supposed to be one-pointed - a compass, not a weathercock.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Because a thing is eloquently expressed it should not be taken to be as necessarily true nor because it is uttered with stammering lips should it be supposed false.
Saint Augustine
Image
You know what? You didn't do anything wrong. I did. It's this dumb thing I do. I look into things and see more than I'm supposed to.
Melina Marchetta
Image
We are supposed to be on the side of goodness in the sense that we need it, not that we are it.
Francis Spufford
Image
People are supposed to accumulate, I thought, as they get older, but I seem to be sloughing off, like a person wrapped in a hundred layers of cellophane, tearing one layer off at a time, trying to get down to me.
Pam Houston
Image
I don't think any of us really knows why we're here. But I think we're supposed to believe we're here for a purpose.
Ray Charles
Image
As might be supposed, my parents were quite poor, but we somehow never seemed to lack anything we needed, and I never saw a trace of discontent or a failure in cheerfulness over their lot in life, as indeed over anything.
Albert J. Nock
Image
LSD is just a tool to turn us into what we are supposed to be.
Albert Hofmann
Image
Truth is one species of good, and not, as is usually supposed, a category distinct from good, and co-ordinate with it
William James
Image
When we're young we have a very clear vision of how life is supposed to be, and it all seems very neatly packaged.
Andrew Shue
Image
During the youthful period of mankind's spiritual evolution human fantasy created gods in man's own image, who, by the operations of their will were supposed to determine, or at any rate to influence, the phenomenal world. Man sought to alter the disposition of these gods in his own favour by means of magic and prayer.
Albert Einstein
Image
The old idea that words possess magical powers is false but its falsity is the distortion of a very important truth. Words do have a magical effect - but not in the way that magicians supposed, and not on the objects they were trying to influence. Words are magical in the way they affect the minds of those who use them.
Aldous Huxley
Image
As an actress, I'm supposed to create something from head to toes, with clues, with lines, with shapes, and even with that power, I felt lost and not in control.
Ludivine Sagnier
Image
And what are you doing on it, I would like to know? Running away from home, yesno? If you were a boy I'd say are you going to seek your fortune? Can't girls seek their fortune? I think they're supposed to seek a boy with a fortune.
Terry Pratchett
Image
Belief in a certain series of myths was neither obligatory as a part of the true religion, nor was it supposed that, by believing, a man acquired religious merit and conciliated the favour of the gods.
William Robertson Smith
Image
You often hear this about directors, how its like having the best set of toys. This fabulous train set, the biggest box of toys that a kid could possibly have. The best directors look like a kid having more fun than youre supposed to have.
William Sadler
Image
We thought of life by analogy with a journey, a pilgrimage, which had a serious purpose at the end, and the thing was to get to that end, success or whatever it is, maybe heaven after you’re dead. But we missed the point the whole way along. It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing or to dance while the music was being played.
Alan Watts
Image
I used to let a lot of unimportant things bother me. I don't anymore. Right now, things are going great in my life. It used to be when that happened, I would be waiting for something to go wrong. Now I don't expect that - if something negative does happen, I'll deal with it, learn from it and realize it is the way it is supposed to be.
Doug Davidson

The simple fact was that if the song wasn't about me, I couldn't see how it could possibly be about anybody else, including the one I knew it was supposed to be about, and good luck to him, too.
William Saroyan
Image
I'll be supposed upon a book, his face is the worst thing about him.
William Shakespeare
Image
I am the character you are not supposed to like.
