Testifying has helped me understand that one individual's behavior and actions make a difference. That my actions are important to people other than myself
Anita Hill
Image
I understand from my own work that haste makes waste. But I also understand that ... the creative spark dims, and then death puts it out. William Shakespeare, for instance, hasn’t produced a new play for 400 years. That, my friends, is a long dry spell.
Stephen King

If you want to understand any woman, you must first ask about her mother and then listen carefully.
Anita Diament

I write novels because there is something I don't understand in reality.
Manuel Puig
Image
People generally will soon understand that writers should be judged, not according to rules and species, which are contrary to nature and art, but according to the immutable principles of the art of composition, and the special laws of their individual temperaments.
Victor Hugo

I think I understand something about space. I think the job of a sculptor is spatial as much as it is to do with form.
Anish Kapoor

No one can force you to stand up, speak up and make a difference. But if you back off and play along, please understand that whatever happens happened, at least in part, because you acquiesced.

Ukrainian business must really embrace global competition. We need to understand that competition for resources and clients is not with competitors from across the street or from another city, but with millions of businesses around the world.
Victor Pinchuk

The beginning of all wisdom is to understand that you don't know. To know is the enemy of all learning. To be sure is the enemy of wisdom.

I never storyboard. I hate it. I don't understand why so many directors want to make comic strips of their films.
Patrice Leconte
Image
I totally understand the promotional aspect of our show and the business end of it. We're putting something out there that we're really proud of. It's not like we're saying, Hey, come watch our show, because it sucks.
Angie Harmon

There is so much more to understand.
Angelina Jolie

If you want to own the Sun, you must first understand candle.

Having nothing to do, I am correcting the Paris edition of Bach not only the engraver's mistakes, but also the mistakes hallowed by those who are supposed to understand Bach (I have no pretensions to understand better, but I do think that sometimes I can guess).
Frederic Chopin
Image
I wanna better understand the world I live in, and I wanna be able to learn how to be more effective... I wanna learn and I wanna listen.
Angelina Jolie

We need to be open minded to understand that there are lots of different levels of things going on and we shouldn't be so quick to judge - and certainly not to judge a whole race, a whole religion or a whole people - and a lot of that is going on.
Angelina Jolie
Image
I don't understand why some things are talked about and others are not. I don't know why I think I can make any kind of difference. All I know is that I want to.
Angelina Jolie

People always slow down for a train wreck. It's like junk food. If you don't feel good about yourself, you want to read crap about other people, like gossip in high school. You don't understand why it's there, but somehow it makes a lot of people feel better.

What is it that turns people into artists? It often comes from some kind of pain or angst, a need to understand or express something. It very rarely comes from confidence, being raised by parents who want to hear what you have to say and wants to encourage you.
Angelina Jolie

I've certainly never helped anybody save the day, in any capacity. If anybody is going to understand making a few mistakes, it's me.
Mehcad Brooks
Image
We have oral traditions in Mali, and songs are passed down and around this way. I think in the US you can play all the time in your own room and never see another musician your whole life. We can't understand that in Mali.

As the head of the government, it is my responsibility to make the overriding political goals and relationships more clear. Part of the reason the public didn't understand some of the reforms enacted during the past legislative period was that there was far too much talk about the details, while the general picture often remained invisible.
Angela Merkel
Image
My job as an artist, as I see it, is to understand and in some cases to take on various ways of thinking about people and the world that are different from my own, sometimes radically different.
Viggo Mortensen

The secret of doing well on TV is to understand that it's not too important. A lot of people watching doesn't change anything.
