Just having the internet is a weird and dangerous thing because people become accustomed to knowing things when they want to know them and not having to work for it. I definitely see the value in not knowing everything and having mystery in life and mystery in people.
2
The common thread for everything I do is this idea of a Web-services architecture. What does that mean? It means taking components of software and systems and having them be self-describing, so that you can aim them, ask them what their capabilities are, and communicate with them using a standard protocol.
3
We have one planet in our solar system that’s habitable, and that’s the Earth, and space travel can transform things back here for the better.

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.

42
I’m so lucky to have such a great family. I respect them so much professionally, and they’ve been unconditionally supportive in the choices that I’ve made. It’s been very good having them on my side.
43
Absolutely not. I have no problem with commitment. In fact, I love having someone in my life.
44
45
I have a lady, she‘s a great lady. I love her a lot, she loves me. We’re on the same page. Whenever that day happens when we’re not on the same page we’ll move forward with it. We’re interested in having our lives be our lives right now and not a third person’s vis-a-vis marriage and whatever that means.
46
There’s a beauty to wisdom and experience that cannot be faked. It’s impossible to be mature without having lived.
47
48

49
I think I should be described as ‘bi’ – not bisexual, because I’m not – I’m gay – but ‘binational’ because I retain British nationality, and I add to it being Australian, which is like having your cake and eating it.
50
Yesterday I was thinking about the whole idea of genius and creative people, and the notion that if you create some magical art, somehow that exempts you from having to pay attention to the small things.
51

55
56
Don’t ever criticize yourself. Don’t go around all day long thinking, ‘I’m unattractive, I’m slow, I’m not as smart as my brother.’ God wasn’t having a bad day when he made you… If you don’t love yourself in the right way, you can’t love your neighbour. You can’t be as good as you are supposed to be.
57
58
59
This life is not man‘s own show; if he becomes personally and emotionally involved in the very complicated cosmic drama, he reaps inevitable suffering for having distorted the divine ‘plot.’

61
Success means having the courage, the determination, and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be.

The essential lesson I’ve learned in life is to just be yourself. Treasure the magnificent being that you are and recognize first and foremost you’re not here as a human being only. You’re a spiritual being having a human experience.
70
Self-doubt is real. Everyone has it. Having confidence and losing confidence is real, too, and everyone has been in that position.
71
72
Having children showed me a whole different kind of love that I had never known. It was something that had always been missing. Complete love. I would die for them.

When we talk about having a life of significance and meaning, it’s not about fame or money or resources. It’s about people and lives and hearts. That’s my biggest passion in life.
74
The best kind of accountability on a team is peer-to-peer. Peer pressure is more efficient and effective than going to the leader, anonymously complaining, and having them stop what they are doing to intervene.
75
76
For me, I don’t expect to have a really amazing meal each time I dine out. Having a good meal with your loved ones – that’s what makes the experience.
77
78
79
80
I don’t necessarily want kids. A lot of our friends are having children and I don’t know if it’s for me. I haven’t come down hardcore on either side of the argument. I think when people come from a stable family having children becomes a celebration and I’m not sure it would be that way for me.
81
Getting to play with your friends and trash talk. That’s some of the best parts of gaming for me. It’s like having recess in elementary school.

Living, breathing, and being present is the practice that can lead us to having a full and authentic in-the-body experience. If we can shift our perspective from being separate to being part of it all, psychological hang-ups, insecurities, fears, and disorders dissolve.
104
105
We’re in a world where masculinity, especially with these big spectacle movies, is often pushed by rippling six packs and forcing an image down someone’s throat trying to prove masculinity. Whereas I think true masculinity comes from having a strong sense of self.
106
107
Desire of having is the sin of covetousness.
108
I do believe it is important to be future-ready with a portfolio to be able to deal with however the market evolves. This is better than just forecasting accurately but in having the weapons ready to deal with the uncertainties.
109
I hope everyone that is reading this is having a really good day. And if you are not, just know that in every new minute that passes you have an opportunity to change that.

My policy on cake is pro having it and pro eating it.
144

145
146
I feel that heterosexual marriage is the more excellent way, and it surely is approved holy by the Holy Bible, and it holds so many more possibilities: the possibilities of having children of both the mother and father, the male and the female.
147
Having a child changes your priorities. I am convinced, for me, it will be something very positive and give me even more motivation.
148

150
151
I started in the restaurant business at the age of 19 as a waitress. I loved the atmosphere and the camaraderie of the restaurant business. I loved not having to go to an office. I loved making people happy.

156

No individual has any right to come into the world and go out of it without leaving behind him distinct and legitimate reasons for having passed through it.
166
My mother told me to raise my kids with calculated neglect. They get their self-worth from doing what they can do and not having everything done for them.
167
If the real radical finds that having long hair sets up psychological barriers to communication and organization, he cuts his hair. If I were organizing in an orthodox Jewish community, I would not walk in there eating a ham sandwich unless I wanted to be rejected so I could have an excuse to cop out.
168
I’ve heard people say that God is the gift of desperation, and there’s a lot to be said for having really reached a bottom where you’ve run out of any more good ideas or plans for everybody else’s behavior; or how to save and fix and rescue; or just get out of a huge mess, possibly of your own creation.
169
There is nothing worth having that can be obtained by nuclear war – nothing material or ideological – no tradition that it can defend. It is utterly self-defeating.

There’s not an instruction manual on how to deal with success, so you just have to rely on having great friends and a good team.
178
In 2009, I fractured my skull in a freak accident at an L.A. restaurant. I suffered a seizure and was rushed into hospital. I was so out of it that I refused to let them scan my brain. My dad rushed to my bedside and talked me into having the CAT scan – he told me that I might die if I didn’t go through with it.
179
180
181
I don’t want to go into a marriage just because of my age – too many people make that mistake. But of course I’d like to be married one day – I dream of having children because I adore kids so, so much.
182
Life, is not a having and a getting, but a being and a becoming.
183

In the early Sixties, having begun to describe the physiology of cells in the adult cat visual cortex, David Hubel and I decided to investigate how the highly specific response properties of cortical cells emerged during postnatal development.
185
I have to tell you, my seven-year-old granddaughter said to my daughter, her mother, ‘So what’s the big deal about Grandma Maddy having been Secretary of State? Only girls are Secretaries of State.’ Most of her lifetime, it’s true. But at the time it really was a big deal.
186
The great thing about having money is that you can actually just get on with your life and not have to think about paying the bills or crouch over ‘The Wall Street Journal‘ or the ‘Financial Times’ and look at the stock figures and things like that. That bores me rigid.
187
188
189
The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you’re in control of your life. If you don’t, life controls you.
190
191
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
192
When I see people with an interesting gap year, if they can explain it, if they can justify it, if they can show what they’ve learnt from it, it’s sometimes more profitable or more intelligent than having been through a traditional, continuous race from high school to the end of university.
193
I enjoy building something good and having a successful product and making money.
194
Let’s not fantasize about having a world of only trans people or only of LGBTQ people. Let’s fantasize about a world in which we all can co-exist and where there is just talent that recognizes talent.
195
To be misunderstood can be the writer’s punishment for having disturbed the reader‘s peace. The greater the disturbance, the greater the possibility of misunderstanding.
196
Kids don’t care what you did wrong – they’re just up every day living, forgiving, loving, having fun.
197
The greatest luxury of having money should be not having to worry about it.
198
I never thought I’d have children; I never thought I’d be in love, I never thought I’d meet the right person. Having come from a broken home – you kind of accept that certain things feel like a fairy tale, and you just don’t look for them.
199
I envy people with dreams and passions, but I don’t think that way. I still don’t have a ‘bliss‘ to follow. For people like me – I suspect that’s most people – holding out for a ‘dream’ or a ‘passion’ is paralyzing. I just like having work I enjoy that feels meaningful. That’s hard enough… but it’s enough.
200
201
202
203
I love making music and I’m falling in love with making records, so it’s like having two girlfriends. But I can handle it.
204
I know when I grew up, it was, if it was daylight outside, get outside. Well, now, with the technological age of computers and everything, everyone’s inside virtually going everywhere they want to go, virtually having relationships, virtually traveling across the neighborhood, virtually going to that island.
205
There aren’t many downsides to being rich, other than paying taxes and having relatives asking for money. But being famous, that’s a 24 hour job right there.
206
What people don’t understand is joining a gang ain’t bad, it’s cool, it’s fine. When you in the hood, joining a gang it’s cool because all your friends are in the gang, all your family’s in the gang. We’re not just killing people every night, we’re just hanging out, having a good time.
207
Are we having fun yet?
208
209
I don’t want to miss out on the chance of having a good time.
210
211
I believe that I have been basically anarchistic, anti-religion and anti-industry and business. In other words, anti-bureaucracy. I would like to see people behave well without having to have priests stand by, politicians stand by, or people collecting bills.
212
Environmentalists aren’t nearly sensitive enough to the fact that they are messing around with struggling people and their livelihoods. They forget that the fishermen are the people with the most immediate vested interest in having a healthy sea.
213
I think more tolerance, more people having more access to a chance to be literate, and a chance to stay healthy makes for a more peaceful planet.
214
215
216
217
If you like small government you need to work hard at having a strong national defense that is not so militant. Personal liberty is the purpose of government, to protect liberty – not to run your personal life, not to run the economy, and not to pretend that we can tell the world how they ought to live.
218
Dreams don’t have deadlines. I’m thinking of doing bigger and better things and having more fun with it.
219
I’m in the trenches; I do the best work I can always do. Having said that, the way that what I do converges with the outside world is fascinating to me. Because it ebbs and flows. People’s interest and understanding, it changes all the time.
220
221
Choosing to be positive and having a grateful attitude is going to determine how you’re going to live your life.
222
Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can’t be done.
223
Just to be honest, like I always am, I tip on my service. I think it’s a difference between good service and bad service, and just having a bad day.
224
Biology is the study of complicated things that have the appearance of having been designed with a purpose.
225
I’ve always felt that having a garden is like having a good and loyal friend.
226
227
228
It’s all about the experience and having a good time and connecting with the fans.
229
230
Keep going on hikes, keep having your friends in your life, keep that downtime sacred as well because as hard as you work in any job, it’s really nice to have the relaxing de-stressors. Stress is the worst thing. That’s the ultimate demise of any good thing.
231
I’m definitely a people person. I love socializing and being around people and having a good conversation.
232
A man is not paid for having a head and hands, but for using them.
233
234
235
What people call serendipity sometimes is just having your eyes open.
236
237
238
Just keep taking chances and having fun.
239
240
I think there is no greater job anybody can have than having been a prosecutor.
241
242
The aim of life is appreciation; there is no sense in not appreciating things; and there is no sense in having more of them if you have less appreciation of them.
243
244
245
I’ve said numerous times the hardest job in America isn’t being a professional athlete. It’s not being a matador or having some job that puts your life at risk. The hardest job in America is being black, because it’s the one thing you can’t outrun.
246
247
I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.
248
There’s no fear when you’re having fun.
249
My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging.
250
With all of you men out there who think that having a thousand different ladies is pretty cool, I have learned in my life I’ve found out that having one woman a thousand different times is much more satisfying.
251
I try to keep my nose down and keep grinding. I keep working and having fun.
252
253
254
I feel very lucky to have grown up having interaction with adults who were making change but who were far from perfect beings. That feeling of not being paralyzed by your incredible inadequacy as a human being, which I feel every day, is a part of the legacy that I’ve gotten from so many of the adult elders.
255
256
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
257
So long as the universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the universe is really completely self-contained, having no boundary or edge, it would have neither beginning nor end: it would simply be. What place, then, for a creator?
258
Telling stories and having them received is so important. That dialogue is everything. I tell my students all the time that what separates us as human beings is our ability to hold stories. Our narrative history. There is so much power in that. Storytelling is our human industry.
259
If you’re not having fun it’s not worth doing.
260
I think the impact my music has had on dance music fans is to bring out their inner love for dancing and having a good time.
261
I think the gender norms of emotion are horrendous. Being masculine means showing zero emotions, but having the choice to be angry or depressed. Being female means you are one dimensional – if you show more than that, you are a psycho, hysterical, or historically, a witch.
262
263
264
Life is about having a good time, and it was a good time. We did some things well and some things poorly, but that was always the case.
265
A two-year-old is kind of like having a blender, but you don’t have a top for it.
266
267
Everything you say and do is having an impact on others.
268
When I’m having fun, I’m the best in the world.
269
Yeah, we pretty much had a form and a shape by that time – a style – and I think one of the advantages of not having any relationship to any other puppeteer was that it gave me a reason to put those together myself for the needs of television.
270
I think probably one of the important things that happened to me was growing up in Idaho in the mountains, in the woods, and having a very strong presence of the wilderness around me. That never felt like emptiness. It always felt like presence.
271
Having a reality TV show, everyone feels like they know you, but that’s only 10% of my life. There’s a whole other side of me that people don’t see.
272
That’s the problem with having a bald head. It exaggerates the shape.
273
The capacity of the female mind for studies of the highest order cannot be doubted, having been sufficiently illustrated by its works of genius, of erudition, and of science.
274
275
But groundless hope, like unconditional love, is the only kind worth having.
276
277
I’m not a religious person, and I’m not too interested in being a part of a religion, but I do like having some sort of communal gathering, and having some sense of peoples.
278
279
Most of me was glad when my mother died. She was a handful, but not in a cute, festive way. More in a life-threatening way, that had caused me a long time ago to give up all hope of ever feeling good about having had her as a mother.
280
Great discoveries and improvements invariably involve the cooperation of many minds. I may be given credit for having blazed the trail, but when I look at the subsequent developments I feel the credit is due to others rather than to myself.
281
What are we having this liberty for? We are having this liberty in order to reform our social system, which is full of inequality, discrimination and other things, which conflict with our fundamental rights.
282
283
If four things are followed – having a great aim, acquiring knowledge, hard work, and perseverance – then anything can be achieved.
284
285
I went out with some old friends and we were having fun. A couple of them were very intoxicated. When I went to leave, I refused to let them drive. So when I got pulled over, I was the driver.
286
Music keeps you young. Having music in your life keeps you open to things.
287
Any clod can have the facts; having opinions is an art.
288
289
290
As a young girl, I loved having stories read to me. There is something magical about narration and voiceovers. Recording a voiceover is an art form in itself.
291
No matter how much success you’re having, you can’t continue working together if you can’t communicate.
292
293
Life doesn’t get more real than having a newborn at home.
294
The use of money is all the advantage there is in having it.
295
My job as a leader is to make sure everybody in the company has great opportunities, and that they feel they’re having a meaningful impact and are contributing to the good of society. As a world, we’re doing a better job of that. My goal is for Google to lead, not follow that.
296
People think of politicians having true power, but that’s less and less true. After all, they are often constrained or being edged into a corner by a whole series of contingencies.
297
298
299
Results are a consequence of doing things well and having high standards, improving the detail of how we play.
300
301
302
I love that feeling of being in love, the effect of having butterflies when you wake up in the morning. That is special.
303
304
You can’t forgive without loving. And I don’t mean sentimentality. I don’t mean mush. I mean having enough courage to stand up and say, ‘I forgive. I’m finished with it.’
305
It is painful to watch children trying to show off for parents who are engrossed in their cell phones. Children are nostalgic for the ‘good old days‘ when parents used to read to them without the cell phone by their side or watch football games or Disney movies without having the BlackBerry handy.
306
307
308
309
310
311
312
There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it.
313
I love having a croissant and a great cup of coffee. Just one cup.
314
Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.
315
The funny thing about having all this so-called success is that behind it is a certain horrible emptiness.
316
317
After having children, life becomes about living beyond yourself; about being bigger and better.
318
In getting older, I find myself becoming progressively more ineffectual in a lot of different ways, and part of that is down to no longer having the youthful feeling that what you’re doing has any true impact.

320
I was putting on a stiff upper lip and trying to fulfill the obligations I thought were demanded of me, taking over my father’s role of taking care of my mother… and having to be the recipient of her confessions and emotions but of a delusional nature.
321
Having patience is one of the hardest things about being human. We want to do it now, and we don’t want to wait. Sometimes we miss out on our blessing when we rush things and do it on our own time.
322
Nothing ever comes to one, that is worth having, except as a result of hard work.
323
The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem.
324
Whenever I’m stressed out or having a bad day, the one thing that gets me happy or back into like a good place of mind is being on the golf course. I love being out there, especially really early in the morning getting the first tee time out and just playing by myself. It’s so peaceful.
325
326
People think your success is just a matter of having a pretty face. But it’s easy to be chewed up and spat out. You’ve got to stay ahead of the game to be able to stay in it.
327
We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
328
329
The key with autonomous is the whole ecosystem. One of the keys to having truly fully autonomous is vehicles talking to each other.
330
331
I mean, really, skateboarding is just going out and having fun with your friends and filming cool tricks and challenging yourself and just really just having a good time. That’s what skateboarding really is.
332
When I’m having a bad day, I pick up my guitar.
333
Though I still have no semblance of a life outside of Nine Inch Nails at the moment, I realize my goals have gone from getting a record deal or selling another record to being a better person, more well-rounded, having friends, having a relationship with somebody.
334
I didn’t know how to show my self love, and I didn’t want anyone else to hurt me. So my tough girl attitude was like, ‘I’m not having it.’
335
Racists seem obsessed by the idea that illegal workers – the hardest-working, poorest people in America – are somehow getting away with something, sneaking goodies that should be for Americans. You can always avoid this problem by having no social services. This is the refreshing Texas model, and it works a treat.
336
337
Distance is a bad excuse for not having a good relationship with somebody. It’s the determination to keep it going or let it fall by the wayside; that’s the real reason that the relationships continue.
338
I’m having a great time. It’s like I’m on some ridiculous big roller coaster not knowing what’s happening next, but just having a great time on the ride.
339
So far as I am concerned, I could not be accused of having set eyes, or having wished to set eyes, upon Darius’ wife: on the contrary, I have refused even to listen to those who spoke to me of her beauty.
340
341
342
There are many qualities that make a great leader. But having strong beliefs, being able to stick with them through popular and unpopular times, is the most important characteristic of a great leader.
343
I’ll hear people say every so often that having HIV must not be so bad – ‘Just look at Magic and how well he’s doing.’
344
345
346
347
Our mission is to connect every person in the world. You don’t do that by having a service people pay for.
348
Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.
349
Having concrete, strong thoughts is very important.
350
351
352
I have no private interest in the reception of my inventions by the world, having never made, nor proposed to make, the least profit by any of them.
353
You can think of the entire Internet as a place where ideas embodied in cyberspace are having a war, and it’s not much different than the war of gods in heaven, which has been taking place since there’s been human beings.
354
355
I played Miley Cyrus’ grandma on ‘Hannah Montana,’ and the first time I was on, they said, ‘We love having veterans like you on because she’s like a little sponge, and she’s really appreciative of all the veterans that are coming on the show, and we just love that you’re teaching her.’
356
357
358
Good psychology should include all the methodological techniques, without having loyalty to one method, one idea, or one person.
359
I always hated my mole growing up. I even thought about having it removed. At the time I didn’t do it because I thought it would hurt, and now I’m glad I didn’t.
360
I’m not into that Keith Richard trip of having all those guitars in different tunings. I never liked the Rolling Stones much anyway.
361
I just like hanging out with my friends, honestly. I mean, as long as I’m in good company and with cool people, and we’re just hanging out and having a good time, that’s usually what I like to do.
362
It is possible to have a pretty good life and career being a leech and a parasite in the media world, gadding about from TV studio to TV studio, writing inconsequential pieces and having a good time.
363
364
365
If he’s having a good day and running the right race, nobody can beat Frank Shorter at 10,000 meters… nobody except me.
366
367
All the traditional models for doing things are collapsing; from music to publishing to film, and it’s a wide open door for people who are creative to do what they need to do without having institutions block their art.
368
Illegitimacy is something we should talk about in terms of not having it.
369
370
371
I think having my life be as private and quiet as possible is a way in which then I can go and play characters.
372
I’d rather trust nine people and have the 10th one stab me in the back. I’d take that fall in order to have those nine friendships or working relationships instead of having none. That’s not living.
373
We should all feel confident in our intelligence. By the way, intelligence to me isn’t just being book-smart or having a college degree; it’s trusting your gut instincts, being intuitive, thinking outside the box, and sometimes just realizing that things need to change and being smart enough to change it.
374
375
Having caught a glimpse of what I might be able to do with my talent, I feel a tremendous obligation to try to fulfill it.
376
377
378
If I were to awaken after having slept for a thousand years, my first question would be: Has the Riemann hypothesis been proven?
379
380
Creativity is the process of having original ideas that have value. It is a process; it’s not random.
381
You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don’t ever count on having both at once.
382
Don’t be afraid in nature: one must be bold, at the risk of having been deceived and making mistakes.
383
384
385
386
I think sleep’s really important. I value it as much as waking up and having a full day.
387
There’s nothing wrong with having a bad day. Let yourself feel those emotions because every emotion is validated.
388
Having a superpower has nothing to do with the ability to fly or jump, or superhuman strength. The truest superpowers are the ones we all possess: willpower, integrity, and most importantly, courage.
389
One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can’t utter.
390
I try to be respectful about getting an honor or recognition, but I don’t really know what the Rock Hall actually is. In my experience with the people who run it, I don’t see it having to do with anything other than them making money.
391
392
I tell students that the opportunities I had were a result of having a good educational background. Education is what allows you to stand out.
393
394
395
I love yoga. There’s a lot of stretching involved, which helps with my flexibility and injury prevention. Vinyasa is my favorite as a recovery tool and for me to continue having my legs feel good.
396
397
People do bad things in their lives. And those sort of things are forgivable. That’s half the point of having confession in church – you need to be able to fess up to what you’ve done.
398
399
400
I’m open about having bipolar disorder. I’m open about being of mixed race. I’m open about being bisexual, and I have this wantingness to talk about it, and for me, it’s about more than being a role model for any specific community.
401
402
While you’re going through this process of trying to find the satisfaction in your work, pretend you feel satisfied. Tell yourself you had a good day. Walk through the corridors with a smile rather than a scowl. Your positive energy will radiate. If you act like you’re having fun, you’ll find you are having fun.
403
404
My secret to staying young… Having no sense of time.
405
I shall not die of a cold. I shall die of having lived.
406
407
Constantly having to think about money is not nice. People used to say, ‘Being rich doesn’t make you happy’. And I’d think, ‘I’ve got no electricity, nothing – tell that to my empty fridge’.
408
No, I regret nothing, all I regret is having been born, dying is such a long tiresome business I always found.
409
410
411
412
Having a lot of friends and family around you – that’s all a part of wellness.
413
414
There is no fulfillment in things whatsoever. And I think one of the reasons that depression reigns supreme amongst the rich and famous is some of them thought that maybe those things would bring them happiness. But what, in fact, does is having a cause, having a passion. And that’s really what gives life’s true meaning.
415
416
If you see harassment happening, speak up. Being harassed is terrible; having bystanders pretend they don’t notice is infinitely worse.
417
We have come to a turning point in the road. If we turn to the right mayhap our children and our children’s children will go that way; but if we turn to the left, generations yet unborn will curse our names for having been unfaithful to God and to His Word.
418
I work tirelessly advocating for gun violence prevention and promoting common-sense gun laws that could spare other parents the pain of having their child taken by senseless gun violence – laws the NRA’s leadership has fought against relentlessly.
419
Take my horse to the old town road and ride till I can’t no more’ basically means just running away, and everything is just gone. The horse is metaphorical for not having anything or just the little things that you do have, and it’s with you.
420
421
Sometimes I am happy and sometimes not. I am, after all, a human being, you know. And I am glad that we are sometimes happy and sometimes not. You get your wisdom working by having different emotions.
422
Being in London has really taught me how important history is. Just having information of the past. It helps you predict the future, which is all we really have as, you know, humans.
423
We speak about understanding each other, having those conversations nationwide – culturally, historically – and yet there’s a lot of gaps. So I want to assist with closing the gap of knowing about and hearing about our Latino communities in terms of literature, in terms of writing.
424
I think that success is having fun.
425
I bet some of you feel sorry for me. Well don’t. Having an artificial leg has its advantages. I’ve broken my right knee many times and it doesn’t hurt a bit.
426
Never, ever underestimate the importance of having fun.
427
Summer means happy times and good sunshine. It means going to the beach, going to Disneyland, having fun.
428
It takes a lot of effort to win back credibility after having lost it so heavily.
429
I think having a great idea is vastly overrated. I know it sounds kind of crazy and counterintuitive. I don’t think it matters what the idea is, almost. You need great execution.
430
431
At the heart of personality is the need to feel a sense of being lovable without having to qualify for that acceptance.
432
433
A beautiful plant is like having a friend around the house.
434
Having the tattoo itself is not really for the end result for me. I like having them done.
435
I’m having fun. I’m being myself. I’m doing what I love. That’s all that matters.
436
I’ve been told that having an Instagram account will help me book more roles, get more endorsement deals. It makes you more of a brand. But I’m not interested. I want to build my fan base through movies and movies alone.
437
My dad died when I was three so my mom had to raise four kids on her own, and I think there’s a part of me that pulls upon having watched my mom do that our whole lives. She had to make it work.
438
439
One of the things about acting is it allows you to live other people’s lives without having to pay the price.
440
Acting is really about having the courage to fail in front of people.
441
Too many people get lost in the game of having a good time and being naive about things.
442
What I tell my kids is, ‘I’m preparing you for college and for life. So, having independence, knowing how to set your own boundaries, figuring out how to make that balance. We still have screen-time rules.’
443
Having no work would be terrible.
444
445
Experience, as a desire for experience, does not come off. We must not study ourselves while having an experience.
446
447
Isn’t it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?
448
I’m not really into style. I’m more into confidence or having something to say.
449
Having nothing, nothing can he lose.
450
Life is the same. It would be the same thing if I were still working at Starbucks, having to deal with a manager, and a shift manager. This is a job.
451
My biggest weakness is patience, wanting to see things happen too quickly or get changes in place right away. Not having the patience to let things develop.
452
Being a writer is like having homework every night for the rest of your life.
453
When I would be myself, I was being big-headed. I was being egotistical. I was a megalomaniac, when it really was just having not to be a monkey for a few hours a day. And fulfilling the need to be a man.
454
455
The secret of having a personal life is not answering too many questions about it.
456
Everything comes out in blues music: joy, pain, struggle. Blues is affirmation with absolute elegance. It’s about a man and a woman. So the pain and the struggle in the blues is that universal pain that comes from having your heart broken. Most blues songs are not about social statements.
457
458
The secret of a good sermon is to have a good beginning and a good ending, then having the two as close together as possible.
459
460
461
462
463
Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.
464
Instead of me having a breakdown, I’m focusing on me having a breakthrough.
465
466
Even though you’re growing up, you should never stop having fun.
467
Development in this county is always going to be an issue. Until development and zoning are handled on a regional basis, rather than each municipality left to its own devices, we will suffer from developers having the upper hand in suits and in front of zoning boards.
468
The fame isn’t important to me. It’s a blessing to have. Having so many people that support me, that love me and listen to my music, is beautiful.
469
I only do this because I’m having fun. The day I stop having fun, I’ll just walk away.
470
I love food, so having a lot of food allergies now and just having a really sensitive body, it forces me to be very mindful and conscious and eat when I’m hungry, not just when I’m bored, and just really slow down. Everything in moderation.
471
‘Sexy‘ is being independent, being confident and having fun.
472
473
474
Real freedom is having nothing. I was freer when I didn’t have a cent.
