I think some of our most talented people are not going to pick the arts as a way that they're going to spend their lives.
Anna Deavere Smith
Image
The way everyone in London is right up against each other makes it very real to you growing up, the fact that people have different lives to you. And that causes problems of course it does.
Tinie Tempah
Image
People look to you to replace a part in their lives that they can't get back. You can't get the past back, you can't do it. We've all tried.
Anna Chlumsky
Image
The thing is, it's not good anyway for eight-year-olds to be out there playing tennis tournaments so soon in their lives. But when I did get to play in a tournament, when I was nine, I was overjoyed.
Venus Williams
Image
Human warmth is perhaps the most lacking in a composer who lives his life in a recording studio.
Fabio Frizzi
Image
If the would-be writer studies people in their everyday lives and discovers how to make his characters in their quieter moods interesting to his readers, he will have learned far more than he can ever learn from the constant presentation of crises.
Vera Brittain
Image
Gratitude is at the center of a life of faith. It sounds to simple to be true, but isn't that the sign of all deep truth: so simple we're tempted to dismiss it, and so hard, it is exactly what God uses to change our hard lives.

Sometimes old things need to go away. That way, we have room for the new things that come into our lives.
R. K. Milholland
Image
We often engage the defense mechanism of tunnel vision, just to keep ourselves focused on our daily lives. This makes us terribly jaded in our perception of what is really around us.
Vera Nazarian
Image
I usually focus on the whole group of characters in any given work-in-progress, and as a result they become particularly dear to me as I delve into their innermost motivations and live out their lives.
Vera Nazarian
Image
Until we call attention to the moments of our lives, we miss our lives.
Ann Voskamp

I just think there's an awful part of rock-'n-roll music where people kind of pretend they're young all their lives, you know? And they kind of live off past glories. Especially now there's kind of a trend where people are performing only their old albums, in their entirety, beginning to end.
Jason Pierce
Image
There is an odd synchronicity in the way parallel lives veer to touch one another, change direction, and then come close again and again until they connect and hold for whatever it was that fate intended to happen.
Ann Rule
Image
We abandon the most important journey of our lives when we abandon desire. We leave our hearts by the side of the road and head off in the direction of fitting in, getting by, being productive, what have you. Whatever we might gain – money, position, the approval of others, or just absence of the discontent self – it’s not worth it.

Each of us lives within the universe - the prison - of his own brain.
Vernon Benjamin Mountcastle
Image
Each of us believes himself to live directly within the world that surrounds him, to sense its objects and events precisely, and to live in real and current time. I assert that these are perceptual illusions ... Each of us lives within the universe - the prison of his own brain.

Many vivisectors still claim that what they do helps save human lives. They are Iying. The truth is that animal experiments kill people, and animal researchers are responsible for the deaths of thousands of men, women and children every year.

Multiple Sclerosis is obviously close to my heart and I'm determined to make a difference in the lives of people who suffer from the disease by raising the profile of MS, as well as raising funds for advocacy and research.
Ann Romney

Self-knowledge is the great power by which we comprehend and control our lives
Vernon Howard
Image
Young women should begin to build bone mass early in their lives. The more mass there is, the less they will lose in later life. They should enjoy a diet of calcium-rich foods and avoid food and drink that causes bone loss.
Ann Richards
Image
Taken together, our songs are like a mural of our lives.
Vernon Reid
Image
Show kindness whenever possible. Show it to the people in front of you, the people coming up behind you, and the people with whom you are running neck and neck. It will vastly improve the quality of your own life, the lives of others, and the state of the world.
Ann Patchett
Image
It makes you wonder. All the brilliant things we might have done with our lives if only we suspected we knew how.
Ann Patchett

We need to invest in peoples lives so that they can do the jobs of the 21st century.
