Halfway measures, such as loincloths or fig leaves, remain more titillating than complete nudity.
Paul Ludwig Landsberg
Image
Halfway through Numbers, I got really jaded, and I had these unrealistic expectations about what Numbers could be. I thought it should be Emmy-nominated. I was in my mid-20s, so I was kind of shortsighted and silly.
David Krumholtz
Image
A bird half wakened in the lunar noon Sang halfway through its little inborn tune.
Robert Frost
Image
I haven't read the comic book. I didn't even know there was one until about halfway though. Helen Mirren and I were talking about that actually, who also felt kind of silly. When we had to run she was like, 'Oh God, we're both going to get fired.' The running sequences, it's a particular kind of humiliation because it's fun.
Mary-Louise Parker
Image
When people come up to me and say 'I hate you' or 'I love to hate you,' it's not the usual response that I thought I would've gotten halfway into my career. And then they say, 'I love your work.'
Robert Knepper
Image
When nothing upsets you, you are at the beginning of the path. When you desire nothing, you are halfway on the path when nothing becomes everything, you are perfected.
Meher Baba
Image
Yes, after some time spent last year on other commitments, most of them speaking engagements, I am now about halfway through a novel that I hope will come out in 1998.
Robert MacNeil

That's why I'm such a big sports fan, with sports you can never guess what's gonna happen. Most movies you get halfway through and you can kind of guess the ending.
Michael Douglas
Image
The ability of so many people to live comfortably with the idea of capital punishment is perhaps a clue to how so many Europeans were able to live with the idea of the Holocaust: Once you accept the notion that the state has the right to kill someone and the right to define what is a capital crime, aren't you halfway there?
Roger Ebert
Image
Valor lies just halfway between rashness and cowardice.
Miguel de Cervantes
Image
I am not afraid of death, which after all can't be far away. What does frighten me, though, is the halfway stage.
Rosie Thomas
Image
We have to accept ourselves in order to write. Now none of us does that fully: few of us do it even halfway. Don’t wait for one hundred percent acceptance of yourself before you write, or even eight percent acceptance. Just write. The process of writing is an activity that teaches us about acceptance.
Natalie Goldberg

You can't go out and adopt Democrat policies all the way or halfway to show that you're not what they think you are.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
What I enjoy so much about the Tonys' uniqueness is that anyone who's tuning in has an interest in seeing the show, so our job is halfway done.
Neil Patrick Harris
Image
Death will be so quick to swoop on you Gather merit till that moment comes! Wait till then to banish laziness? Then there'll be no time, what will you do? This I have not done. And this I'm only starting. And this - I'm only halfway through ... Then is the sudden coming of the Lord of Death, And oh, the thought 'Alas, I'm finished.'
Shantideva
Image
And it's like some tiny nothing that sets off a natural disaster halfway across the world, only this was the opposite of disaster, how by accident she saved me with that thoughtless act of grace, and she never knew, and how that, too, is the part of the history of love.
Nicole Krauss
Image
Greater good is just halfway back to Bad.
Sheri Holman
Image
Opposing what's wrong is a halfway measure at best. A rebel must also have a vision for something better, a strategy for moving toward that vision and a capacity to rally and join with others in achieving it. If the anger that drives rebellion is not transformed into the hope that inspires movement communities, it will do more harm than good.
Parker J. Palmer
Image
Fear, the doctor said, is the relinquishment of logic, the willing relinquishing of reasonable patterns. We yield to it or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.
Shirley Jackson
Image
Sometimes people leave you Halfway through the wood Others may decieve you You decide what's good You decide alone But no one is alone
Stephen Sondheim
Image
Every great mistake has a halfway moment, a split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied.
Pearl S. Buck
Image
Choose a checked or striped wall paper. People will be halfway home before they are able to focus.
Phyllis Diller
Image
Don't do nothing halfway, else you find yourself dropping more than can be picked up.
Louis Armstrong
Image
You can’t bake a cake without getting the kitchen messy. Halfway through surgery it looks like there’s been a murder in the operating room. If you send a rocket to the moon, about ninety percent of the time it’s off course—it ‘fails’ its way to the moon by continually making mistakes and correcting them.
