Beginning well is a momentary thing finishing well is a lifelong thing
Ravi Zacharias
Image
The merit in action lies in finishing it to the end.
Genghis Khan
Image
It's like live action if you reshot every scene a million times after finishing the movie. Because even apparently by the very end, a few weeks before they were screening it for the world premiere, they were making changes. That's just simply something you can't do on live action.
John Francis Daley

How many more years I shall be able to work on the problem I do not know I hope, as long as I live. There can be no thought of finishing, for 'aiming at the stars' both literally and figuratively, is a problem to occupy generations, so that no matter how much progress one makes, there is always the thrill of just beginning.
Robert H. Goddard
Image
Do not plan for ventures before finishing what's at hand.
Euripides
Image
I start laughing every time because the media talks to me like I'm finishing my career and I only have one year left and time is running out.
Caroline Wozniacki

Virtue, though she gets her beginning from nature, yet receives her finishing touches from learning.
Quintilian

When I started finishing games and coming off the field shaking hands, it was a beautiful thing. I mean, you start seeing that you're an important part of the team.
Dennis Eckersley

We are not even close to finishing the basic dream of what the PC can be.
Bill Gates

When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.
Marc Chagall
Image
The beginning of a painting is a very energized, exciting time, and it generates most of the energy I have. If I've gotten 75 per cent of it down, then it takes an effort to really get up that kind of energy to finish it in the same way it's begun.
Burton Silverman

How do you complete a painting, really? There are paintings by so many different artists that are interesting precisely because they haven't really been completed.

I was the Chair of the WIFF Foundation, which is the philanthropic arm of Women In Film. The foundation runs the several programs including one that provide our film finishing fund. So we help women complete their films with a grant from Netflix. It's great to be associated with award winning films like 'Freeheld' and 'Circumstance'.

Shift often from openness to closure.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

One should never forget that by actually perfecting one piece one gains and learns more than by starting or half-finishing a dozen.
Johannes Brahms
Image
I don't have a problem believing in God and Jesus. But in Genesis one has to wonder about these sentences that just go on and end without finishing. The thought is unfinished. Where did Adam go? What is he doing? Hello? There has to be some pages missing.
Bill Cosby

Fortunately for me, its my most favorite drill, and that is finishing. However, from a young age, soccer players in this country are not taught how to properly finish, and I think you see that through the professional ranks, that we dont have that killer instinct of the forwards from other countries.
Landon Donovan

I like painting because it's something I never come to the end of. Sometimes I paint a picture, then I paint it all out. Sometimes I'm working on fifteen or twenty pictures at the same time. I do that because I want to - because I like to change my mind so often. The thing to do is always to keep starting to paint, never finishing painting.
Arshile Gorky

O my Bergson, you are a magician, and your book is a marvel, a real wonder in the history of philosophy . . . In finishing it I found . . . such a flavor of persistent euphony, as of a rich river that never foamed or ran thin, but steadily and firmly proceeded with its banks full to the brim.
William James
Image
I finished school, because I started when I was thirteen, so basically around 16 or 17, I just focused on finishing high school.
Jhene Aiko

When you're at a film festival, you have a rapt and enthused audience and if you can point them to a Kickstarter campaign, that's a great way to leverage that enthusiasm. Even if you don't need finishing funds, it's a way to get outreach funds.
Thom Powers
Image
So many people are good at starts and not so good at finishing.
Barbara Corcoran

I remember when we were at Sundance, we were in Robert Redford's screening room, and I had never seen the film look so beautiful or sound so great. It was really big and really powerful, and I had a sense of accomplishment in finishing a project like this.
Steven Sebring

Yes, it has made me happier. Finishing them has made me happier. Before I wrote the Potter books, I'd never finished a novel. I came close to finishing two.
