Image
I believe that the shocking toll of AIDS on gay men in the West was partly due to their Seventies delusions that a world without women was possible. All-male energies, unbalanced and ravenous, literally tore the body apart.
Camille Paglia
Image
I enjoy doing very high mileages, partly out of masochism and also because I like to feel the shape of the landscape.
Will Self
Image
[Donald] Trump, he - you know, buy American, buy American, anti-free trade, and got big cheers. They're waving Russian flags, probably partly as a joke. But, still, the party has become an ethnic nationalist party.
Mark Shields
Image
I am partly not conscious of structure with my movies, but this is when I am writing. I leave my mind very free, and then I correct it after.
Pedro Almodovar
Image
On Fantastic Mr. Fox, I got used to working with animated storyboards as a way of planning for the shoot. We did a lot of sequences that way with this movie. Partly as a result of that, I decided to build more sets in order to do certain shots.
Wes Anderson
Image
What interests us about the past is at least partly a function of what bothers us or makes us curious in the present.
Adam Garfinkle
Image
I taught a lot of art history, especially Chinese, Japanese, and Indian. But the painting classes came back. The nudes came back. Not so much the still lifes. So now our department is the worst department, partly because it has the worst facilities.
Ad Reinhardt
Image
The nannyism is partly to distract from the corruption — and partly just another opportunity to leverage it. A good general rule is that the more a government wants to run its citizens’ lives, the worse job it will do at the most basic tasks of government.
Glenn Reynolds
Image
Maybe with Californication the character was partly based on Rick Moody. I read him and Jay McInerney, the templates for this bad boy novelist.
David Duchovny
Image
Although I am a young leader, I actually came to it strangely quite late. I have a different perspective, partly because of my family, partly because of what I did for ten years: negotiating trade deals, working out in Central Asia doing assistance projects.
Nick Clegg
Image
Chicago is partly a fairy tale because it's inside one person's head, so that part of it's made up and the rest of it is reality.
Colleen Atwood
Image
Every theory in philosophy, which is built on pure conjecture, is an elephant and every theory that is supported partly by fact, and partly by conjecture, is like Nebuchadnezzar's image, whose feet were partly of iron, and partly of clay.
Thomas Reid
Image
Whether a listener absorbs this music or rebels against it is at least partly a matter of how the performers put it across. It would be hard to imagine an ensemble playing it with greater virtuosity than the JACK Quartet, which seemed not merely earnest but also completely comfortable with, and passionate about, the strange sound worlds at hand.
Allan Kozinn
Image
It really does feel, partly because of graphic novels kids read, like there's a lot of freedom with how you can use both images and words, because we think in both of those ways.
Lynne Rae Perkins
Image
Virtue depends partly upon training and partly upon practice you must learn first, and then strengthen your learning by actions.
Seneca the Younger
Image
So when the moon's only partly full, you only feel a little wolfy? You could say that. Well, you can go ahead and hang your head out the car window if you feel like it. I'm a werewolf, not a golden retriever.
Cassandra Clare
Image
Cricket is a game full or forlorn hopes and sudden dramatic changes of fortune and its rules are so ill-defined that their interpretation is partly an ethical business.
George Orwell
Image
The world was made partly that there may be prayer partly that our prayers might be answered.
C. S. Lewis
Image
I was partly old-fashioned and partly modern.
Eric Allin Cornell
Image
Why do we like being Irish? Partly because It gives us a hold on the sentimental English As members of a world that never was, Baptized with fairy water
Louis MacNeice
Image
Interior decoration partly thrives on being social.
Nicholas Haslam
Image
You can take an object and simply put anything you want in that object, and I accessed that partly through Freudian ideas.
Claes Oldenburg
Image
Jim and I hit it off immediately, partly because our interests were astonishingly similar and partly, I suspect, because a certain youthful arrogance, a ruthlessness, an impatience with sloppy thinking can naturally to both of us.
Francis Crick
Image
Once 'Walk Two Moons' received the Newbery Medal, I decided to write full-time. Partly because there seemed to be an audience out there who wanted to read what I wanted to write, and partly because I could now support myself financially through writing.
