Without deadlines and restrictions I just tend to become preoccupied with other things.
Val Kilmer
Image
The best writing deadlines are poverty and death.
Victor LaValle
Image
Like most people I can be lazy, so it's nice to have a goal or deadline or reason to work out. I feel better when I get to exercise, or when I'm outdoors. I like to hike, swim and run, and I love to play soccer.
Viggo Mortensen

Give yourself a deadline to stop planning and to start taking action.
Andy Gilbert
Image
We need to distinguish between stress and stimulation. Having deadlines, setting goals, and pushing yourself to perform at capacity are stimulating. Stress is when you're anxious, upset, or frustrated, which dramatically reduce your ability to perform.
Andrew Bernstein

I write on weekends, on vacation, and, really - on deadline and on my floor. Both terrible for the back.
Sloane Crosley

But we are almost certainly going to miss our [global warming] deadline. We cannot get the 10 lost years back, and by the time a new global agreement to replace the Kyoto accord is negotiated and put into effect, there will probably not be enough time left to stop the warming short of the point where we must not go.
Gwynne Dyer

When life tends to get too complex, too fast, too cluttered, too deadline oriented, or too type A for you, stop and remember your own spirit. You're headed for inspiration, a simple, peaceful place where you're in harmony with the perfect timing of all creation.
Wayne Dyer

If they make the deadline because the Shiites and Kurds essentially rammed a draft through over Sunni Arab objections, there will be hell to pay.
Wayne White

Jerry often says that Slam Bradley was really the forerunner of Superman, because we turned it out with no restrictions, complete freedom to do what we wanted the only problem was that we had a deadline.
Joe Shuster
Image
The only time I ever iron the sheets or make meringues is when there is an ... urgent deadline in the offing.
Angela Carter
Image
Deadlines comes as a surprise....superb: a new genre, in fact, combining the pleasures of list-making with that of last-minute eaves-dropping.
Alberto Manguel
Image
I like doing research that has an impact. If I went to a company to make what they call 'real money,' I'd be just trying to make a system work as fast as possible to meet the product and serice deadlines.
Bjarne Stroustrup
Image
I like having deadlines... a film release date or a concert premiere date. It channels one's energy into doing often remarkable work that oceans of extra time would probably not improve upon.
William P. Perry
Image
At some point, I would like to write a book and other things, but I work best when there is some sort of deadline in my own mind, but not when fifty people or fifty million people are breathing down the back of my neck.
Alanis Morissette
Image
You get caught up sometimes in the deadlines and the pressures and certain things that you can't really control that you forget that this is supposed to be an enjoyable journey.
Wilmer Valderrama
Image
God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Image
I fell in love with Twitter. Fathers, lock up your deadlines.
David Edelstein
Image
There's nothing an artist needs more - even more than excellent tools and stamina - than a deadline.
Adriana Trigiani
Image
I write both at home and at coffee shops, and I have a terrible work ethic - I have a tendency to write most of my books right before the deadline. I'm trying to work on that, but so far, I'm not getting any more organized.
Elizabeth Hoyt
Image
Deadlines refine the mind. They remove variables like exotic materials and processes that take too long. The closer the deadline, the more likely you'll start thinking waaay outside the box.
Adam Savage
Image
I've learned over decades of building that a deadline is a potent tool for problem-solving.
Adam Savage

So on the Tuesday night deadline, while Abu Qatada was appealing to European Court judges, the Home Secretary, who thought the deadline was Monday night, was partying with X Factor judges. When the Home Secretary is accused of not knowing what day of the week it is, confusion and chaos have turned into farce.
Yvette Cooper

When you are overworked and exhausted, there is a sense of kind of delirium and that's why I think architects do all-nighters and they kind of do those deadlines. For four days I remember doing four nights in one row with no sleep. I mean nobody, unless you are crazy, would do that, but you are totally focused on the project.
