We are poor, feeble, and blind mortals when the eye of the Almighty looks through all worlds and by his power executes all things aright, and by his grace, he makes us all rich in Heavenly Gifts. In distress and in bereavements, we can look only to him. From mortals like ourselves we can derive no help.

It gives you a good feeling. Each year, you rediscover in a garden the magic of life. A flower arrives, and it is a miracle. The leaves fall in the autumn, and it looks fantastic. There is a tenderness about a garden, and you can’t help but be sensitive to that.

61
62
63
We have had more sales for this year’s grand prix than any other, and we have been helped in that by the fact that Jenson had 10 podiums last season and looks like a winner. It is good for British motor racing if he is there and doing well.
64
When everybody looks at our generation of kids, they always call us the misfits – you know, like we just don’t give a damn.
65
66
67

68
69
I’m definitely responsible for coming in with some basic chord changes, or ideas. Everybody in the band looks to me to come up with the basic seed, so it’s not very productive to come in with nothing.

Most people, if you live in a big city, you see some form of schizophrenia every day, and it’s always in the form of someone homeless. ‘Look at that guy – he’s crazy. He looks dangerous.’ Well, he’s on the streets because of mental illness. He probably had a job and a home.
76
When history looks back, I want people to know that the Nazis could not kill millions of people with impunity.
77
78
79
Can you design a Rorschach test that’s going to make everyone feel something every time – and that looks like a Rorschach test? It’s easy to show a picture of a kitten or a car accident. The question is, how abstract can you get and still get the audience to feel something when they don’t know what’s happening to them?
80
81
If you go to the supermarket and buy a package of food and look at the photo on the front, the food never looks like that inside, does it? That is a fundamental lie we are sold every day.
82
83
We are all seduced by charismatic people, whether it’s in your office or in the bus or in the train. There are people who just, like, come through the door, and everybody turns around and looks at them and feels drawn to them.

Britishness is just a way of putting things together and a certain don’t care attitude about clothes. You don’t care, you just do it and it looks great.

91
92
You know, I do not think it is necessarily looks, I do not think I am the prettiest girl… Everyone has something that is their asset, some have the hair, some have the cheekbones, others have the lips. But once you know what is your asset, then you should capitalize on it.

My body looks like 30 but my face looks like 50. But I cannot walk bare-chested in the streets. I like to do these movies to challenge myself physically.
101
102
Any surgery done to improve one’s looks is not really something someone wants to talk about.
103
Perfection is an unattainable goal. It isn’t going to be perfect. Just get words down on paper, and when you stumble to what you think is the end of the book, you will have hundreds of pages of words that came out of your head. It may not be perfect, but it looks like a book.
104
105
My birthmark essentially looks like I have a black eye. It isn’t that bad, so you can imagine if it has been this big a part of my life, think of what it must be like for children with more serious birthmarks that cover half their face.
106
Nearly every man who develops an idea works it up to the point where it looks impossible, and then he gets discouraged. That’s not the place to become discouraged.

115
It’s always baffled me why BET looks the way it does. This is Black Entertainment Television. Why are we up there, then, looking like idiots? It’s because black people are marketing black people like that.
116
Maybe the Burberry woman is undefinable! I think it’s less about what she looks like and more about an attitude.

119
120
I discovered about 150 dots is the minimum number of dots to make a specific recognizable person. You can make something that looks like a head, with fewer dots, but you won’t be able to give much information about who it is.
121
122
We should collectively be talking to children – as young as kindergarten – about what consent looks like.
123
124
I’m no natural beauty. If I’m gonna have any looks at all, I’m gonna have to create them.
125
126
127
128
Fame is really strange. One day you’re not famous, and then the next day you are, and the odd thing is that you know intellectually that nothing in the world is different. What mattered to you yesterday are the same things that matter today, and the rules all still apply – yet everyone looks at you differently.
129
130
My kitchen looks like the one from my childhood – very homey, with a little bit of Alice in Wonderland!
131
132
Nobody looks good getting out of bed.
133
134
A black agenda is jobs, jobs, jobs, quality education, investment in infrastructure and strong democratic regulation of corporations. The black agenda, at its best, looks at America from the vantage point of the least of these and asks what’s best for all.
135
She got her looks from her father. He’s a plastic surgeon.
136

137
138
139

140
Gold looks good on my skin, and gold looks good on black people, I think.
141
142
143
Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who ever looks at it when it has been in the house three days?
144
145
146
Katie Price is no exception. She, too, is – in a distinctive way – a philosopher. Partially, Katie Price’s philosophy is one of extraordinary confidence. She is remarkable not for her looks or antics but because of her tremendous self-assurance and her unwillingness to be intimidated by criticism or failure.
147
148
I think being Jewish has been covered really well but almost nothing about being fundamentalist Protestant. For years, I’ve had a movie in my mind called ‘Total Immersion’ that looks to my life as a kid where you’re immersed in this different worldview from almost everybody around you.
149
150
Maybe one of the most heartening findings from the psychology of pleasure is there’s more to looking good than your physical appearance. If you like somebody, they look better to you. This is why spouses in happy marriages tend to think that their husband or wife looks much better than anyone else thinks that they do.
151
152
153
154
I’m fairly specific about what I like to wear and looks are important to me, just like they are to everybody.
155

156
It’s hard as a young person of a different ethnicity or background to look at the TV and not see anyone who looks like you. Representation is very important.
157
I like clean-cut, very proper, very elegant looks.
158
159
160
I have a hard time watching the shows now. It is like opening up a yearbook when you were in junior high. I think everybody looks back at their photos and cringe, and I get to experience it with everybody else in the world looking at mine.
161
162
I see myself on the cover of a magazine and I don’t think that it looks like me at all. My first-ever photo shoot was for the cover of a lads‘ magazine.
163
164
If a statesman is one who looks to the next generation and a politician one who looks to the next election, a political consultant must be one who looks to the next tracking poll.
165
166
If looks help, that’s great, but we don’t want it to be the featured thing. It’s totally superficial.
167
168
When you look at the… atmosphere on the limb of the Earth, I wouldn’t say it looks unhealthy, but it definitely looks very, very fragile and just kind of like this thin film, so it looks like something that we definitely need to take care of.
169
So I think that if we want to have a Congress, if we want to have government that looks like America, if we want to have government that is truly a representative Democracy, then we need to clearly address how we get our campaign laws out of the way of Democracy.

I thought I was attractive when I shot ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding.’ Studio executives and movie reviewers let me know I had a confidence in my looks that was not shared by them. In other words, they labeled me with words like overweight, unattractive, unappealing.
184
185
It was truly a lesson in don’t take something at face value. You know, so many of us do in life. Whether it’s because of how somebody looks or because of what they’re wearing or what have you, you kind of assess a person in the first five minutes before they even speak.
186
187
188
People take years learning how to act; it’s a skill, not just a job. If I tried it out and thought I’d be OK, then perhaps I’d go for it, but it’s not the kind of thing you can get into just because of your looks.
189
A family looks for ways to support and inspire one another.
190
191
What does God the Father look like? Although I’ve never seen Him, I believe – as with the Holy Spirit – He looks like Jesus looked on earth.
192
When you throw punches at actors, you stop, you pull it, and it looks like you pulled it. When you throw punches at cartoon characters, they are not there, so you can swing through. It looks like you really decked them.
193

We all lose our looks eventually. Better develop your character and interest in life.

My parents named me Arlette, and I changed it to Agnes when I was young. I didn’t like it because I don’t like names with ‘ette’ – you know, it looks like a little girl‘s name.
201
202
Everyone looks so much better when they smile.
203
I like to try new looks and new haircuts. It’s part of who I am.
204
205
Why do you need to do a fancy cartwheel for before you hit him? It just looks stupid.
206
And now it looks like I’m probably going to shoot a movie that I wrote. I got the money to do it, and I would star and all, because of being on Howard.
207
208
I’m seeing a guy now who has nothing to do with films. It’s so much nicer with somebody who isn’t an actor. Two crazy people in one house would be too much. It’s better there’s one crazy person, and one nice person who looks after that crazy person.
209
210
211
212
I think valuing what your body can do over how your body looks is the No. 1 advice I would give to young women about how to have healthy body image. It’s not, ‘Do these pants fit?’ It’s ‘Can I do a split?’
213
If people are failing, they look inept. If people are succeeding, they look strong and good and competent. That’s the ‘halo effect.’ Your first impression of a thing sets up your subsequent beliefs. If the company looks inept to you, you may assume everything else they do is inept.
214
People used to think we just faked all that stuff… it was all written, rehearsed. The fact that it looks as cobbled together as it does is just that we weren’t very good.
215
And this President wakes up every morning, looks out across America and is proud to announce, ‘It could be worse.’ It could be worse? Is that what it means to be an American? It could be worse? Of course not. What defines us as Americans is our unwavering conviction that we know it must be better.
216
217
Nothing is more alluring to a man than a woman who looks good in her jeans.
218
When I run barefoot, I put my shoes on my hands. Running around with shoe-hands looks a little weird.
219
Google Earth is an incredible resource because from hundreds of miles in space, we can zoom in, and we can find things. Everyone always looks for their house first. That is the tip of the iceberg with remote sensing.
220
221
222
In order to be a lieutenant, you’ve got to have authority in your voice. No matter how young your face looks, you’ve got to let your guys know that you’re in charge.
223
224
225
226
I’ve always wanted to make a light that looks like the light you see in your dream.
227
To me, a staircase looks like a series of dark and light horizontal stripes, which is exactly how you’d draw a staircase. So I know how the image is going to look on the page.
228
229
230
Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and you’re a thousand miles from the corn field.
231
There are so many ways to decorate small spaces. One of my favorite things is throw pillows. They can add so much color to your room. You can have the same bedding for years and just switch out the throw pillows, and it looks like you have a completely new bed.
232
I want to thank my parents for somehow raising me to have confidence that is disproportionate with my looks and abilities.
233
The medieval university looked backwards; it professed to be a storehouse of old knowledge. The modern university looks forward, and is a factory of new knowledge.
234
235
236
That Dutch style of kickboxing, that’s great. That’s hard. It’s very intimidating to stand across from, but you know it’s very rhythmic on the beat. It’s just something: It looks scary, but it’s nothing to be scared of.
237
My goal as an actor was just to be somebody very human. I’m not really interested in playing a character who is particularly cool and everything he does looks great and turns out great.
238
Did you ever notice that nobody you see on television looks like anyone you know?
239
There’s nothing worse than coming home to a room that looks like a catalog.
240
241
242
243
I understand that many young men and women are coming forward to join Youth Congress. I am not surprised. It is only natural. The vast majority of our youth is sober and idealistic. It looks forward to an era of disciplined, planned, constructive activity.
244
245
If you look at the buildings, you’ll find that one part looks as if it was designed by one man, and you go around and look at another facade and it looks as if it was designed by another man, you see.
246
There’s always pressure, from other people and yourself. If you’re happy with the looks you’re born with, then what are you going to do your whole life? We keep thinking up new things and finding better ways of doing things because we’re not happy with what we’re given.
247
It is part of the photographer‘s job to see more intensely than most people do. He must have and keep in him something of the receptiveness of the child who looks at the world for the first time or of the traveler who enters a strange country.
248
249
My looks aren’t something that come dazzlingly through in everything I do. I can be made to look one way or the other fairly easily… I am still not recognised on the street that much.
250
Beauty is merciless. You do not look at it, it looks at you and does not forgive.
251
It is always the case that when something emerges – which, of course, from the perspective of the former West Germany looks very different – then people say, ‘She hasn’t told us this yet’ and ‘She hasn’t told us that yet.’ I don’t know – maybe there are other things I didn’t talk about because no one ever asked me.
252
253
254
255
Some of those drawn into the holy war had been secular nationalists only a few years before. If one looks at the biographies of these people, remarkable continuities are revealed.
256
257
258
To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.
259
God looks after children, animals and idiots.
260
As you get older, you find that everything looks better more natural!
261
Luckily I have a brother who looks after my administration and my money, because I’m a total spendthrift.
262
263
264
265
I’m not the sexiest thing in the world, I feel actors who have to ‘play’ sexy lose all their sex appeal. When they start with the tongue and the heavy lids, it looks so ridiculous. I think you just have to be yourself.
266
267
I’ve never had any illusions about being a lead actor in films, because lead actors have to be of a certain kind. Apart from the beauty of looks and figure, which I cannot claim to have, there’s just a particular kind of ordinary-Joe quality that a film star needs to have.
268
We have fallen in love with the body. That’s that thing that looks back at us from the mirror. That’s the repository of that lovely identity that you keep chasing all your life.
269
I’m not obsessed by looks. I think you can become a prisoner of your own image.
270
271
272
273
274
Everyone looks to an artist for something more than just the music, and that message of being comfortable in my own skin is number one for me.
275
276
I really think that sex always looks kind of funny in a movie.
277
I am not sure about facelifts because I wouldn’t want to be someone who just looks like she’s had a facelift.
278
279
I don’t have a religion. I believe in a God. I don’t know what it looks like but it’s MY god. My own interpretation of the supernatural.
280
The nice thing about Squirrel Girl is that she’s smart, and she looks for situations that don’t necessarily involve punching people all the time.
281
I hate the word ‘sneering’, I can’t help the way my face looks.
282
It’s a product of two poles – there’s the pole of the one who makes the work, and the pole of the one who looks at it. I give the latter as much importance as the one who makes it.
283
284
285
If a building looks better under construction than it does when finished, then it’s a failure.
286
The biggest determinant in our lives is culture, where we are born, what the environment looks like. But the second biggest determinant is probably governance, good governance or a certain kind of governance makes a huge difference in our lives.
287
288
People have lots of misconceptions about me. My mum, who is half French and half Spanish, gets outraged when I’m called quintessentially English. I owe my looks to my mum-which was 90 percent of getting my first job. And, some people would argue, 90 percent of my entire career.
289
For six months I’d do movies and make it all about me. Then the other six months, it’s not about me and it doesn’t matter what my hair looks like or what anything looks like.
290
291
292
I cannot be awake for nothing looks to me as it did before, Or else I am awake for the first time, and all before has been a mean sleep.
293
294
295
One of the things about having played a lot of villains is… I don’t have the same experience of someone who maybe has been a leading man since they were 22 and therefore looks at certain things in a character to romanticize themselves. I actually very much embrace the bad stuff.
296
297
A lot of people don’t get it, but I design from the inside out so that the finished product looks inevitable somehow. I think it’s important to create spaces that people like to be in, that are humanistic.
298
Money looks better in the bank than on your feet.
299
Vision looks outward and becomes aspiration.
300
The model I came up with in 1964 is just the invention of a rather strange sort of medium that looks the same in all directions and produces a kind of refraction that is a little bit more complicated than that of light in glass or water.
301
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
302
I can’t bear looking in the mirror – I guess that’s why my hair looks like this.
303
304
Books are like a mirror. If an ass looks in, you can’t expect an angel to look out.
305
306
307
308
309
310
311
When you get to know a lot of people, you make a great discovery. You find that no one group has a monopoly on looks, brains, goodness or anything else. It takes all the people – black and white, Catholic, Jewish and Protestant, recent immigrants and Mayflower descendants – to make up America.
312
313
Thus it is that in war the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won, whereas he who is destined to defeat first fights and afterwards looks for victory.
314
Insurance companies can no longer refuse to cover Americans with pre-existing conditions. That’s what change looks like.
315

317
318
The force I represent is Virginia’s New Mainstream. It looks forward, not backwards. It tries to unify people, not divide them.
319
Today you see so many lady-boys in Bangkok roaming the streets where they have even removed their Adam‘s apple through surgery to look like girls. That’s tampering with nature, but I feel if one needs to do little things to look good as we are in the looks business, then one shouldn’t hesitate to do plastic surgery.
320
321
322
Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
323
It is clear I was never the Pretty Girl. I had my two front teeth knocked out when I was 10 and didn’t fix them until I was 19. I have a crooked smile and a nose that looks like it’s been broken 12 times but never has been. My nose was always red, so people called me Rudolph. My whole face is off-center.
324
I don’t know what makes a marriage work. My husband and I don’t have it right at all; it’s very tough on him. From the outside it looks like it’s all about me – I have a glorious career and he doesn’t.
325
Because of my own insecurities about the way I look, I do sometimes sabotage the looks of my characters by making them as homely as possible. I’ve never done a glamour part. I’d like to some day, though I don’t know if I could pull it off.
326
Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.
327
The past always looks better than it was. It’s only pleasant because it isn’t here.
328
‘Gaana Bajana’ gave me an opportunity to experiment with my looks. I played a tomboy in that film, a role that I hadn’t essayed before. I have no regrets for having done the film.
329
The Alien is gross, scary. There is something in a human being that looks at them and sees it as a cockroach. You can never feel nurturing towards the cockroach.
330
A vegetable garden in the beginning looks so promising and then after all little by little it grows nothing but vegetables, nothing, nothing but vegetables.
331
Everybody looks at his clothes to see what he’s wearing.
332
I keep both of my Tonys on my mantle. They’re in front of a mirror so if you look at just the right angle, it looks like I have four!
333
My face looks like a wedding-cake left out in the rain.
334
335
336
It’s impossible to beat Katrina Kaif in looks and sex appeal. She’s too hot!
337
Whenever I go on the red carpet and I’m a bit nervous, I just say to myself the mantra, ‘Come on Barbara, you gotta get those pictures posted on Instagram!’ That’s all I have in my mind, like, ‘Look serious now, maybe give a little smile, but a cheeky one,’ but in the end, it’s never how it looks.
338
I wasn’t a good-looking child. I got screwed out of the genetic deal. My sister looks like a model. I think that’s why I’m a comic. I’m deeply insecure, since I was always feeling ugly. I wasn’t a healthy child. I had poor self-esteem. That’s why I need people’s approval.
339
Rubber looks different to skin and it’s very, very hard to make a prosthetic on a human look convincing if you don’t light them correctly.
340
Vision looks upward and becomes faith.
341
As a New Yorker, I’m someone who lives on an island and looks across to America.
342
Gucci! Paul Smith! I love it! You discover it’s not just names; that stuff looks pretty good once it’s on you.
343
344
I don’t have a type. I’ve dated so many different types, different personalities, different looks – from athletic to very non-athletic. The only thing I have to have is someone who is really motivated in life and challenges me. If I don’t have that, I get bored.
345
The system is the work of art; the visual work of art is the proof of the System. The visual aspect can’t be understood without understanding the system. It isn’t what it looks like but what it is that is of basic importance.
346
When you see a person, do you just concentrate on their looks? It’s just a first impression. Then there’s someone who doesn’t catch your eye immediately, but you talk to them and they become the most beautiful thing in the world. The greatest actors aren’t what you would call beautiful sex symbols.
347
In France, the image I had was of a shy girl – a poor lonely girl and not too good-looking. When I went to England, I had another image. I felt the journalists were much more interested in my looks than in my songs.
348
The only person I’ve been able to get to go up with me, who looks forward to it as much as I do, is my wife. Whenever we want to get away, we can just get in a plane and fly off.
349
350
351
352
353
354
After all, when the world looks to America, they look to us because we are the most successful political and economic experiment in human history.
355
I’ve written enough books with real celebrities, such as Walter Payton and Hank Aaron and Billy Graham, to know that fame looks good only to people who don’t have it.
356
10 Endradhukulla’ is a thriller and the characters are all on the run. The film travels from South India traversing through the North, to the mountains where the climax takes place. Mine is a different kind of character; he is very suave and stylish and only later it is discovered that he is not what he looks like.
357
358
The New Age movement looks like a mixed bag. I see much in it that seems good: It’s optimistic; it’s enthusiastic; it has the capacity for belief. On the debit side, I think one needs to distinguish between belief and credulity.
359
Somehow, magically, I’ve become an electronic musician, and I have a recording studio that looks like the bridge of the Enterprise.
360
It looks easy, like surfing, but surfing is hard too.
361
I have a retro feel to my work, to my person, but I also have a futuristic view of what’s possible. We can have people in pop that have more diverse looks and attitudes.
362
I don’t get acting jobs because of my looks.
363
I discovered that if one looks a little closer at this beautiful world, there are always red ants underneath.
364
When I am putting looks together, I dare myself to make something work. I always look for the most interesting silhouette or something that’s a little off, but I have to figure it out. I have to make it me. I think that’s the thrill in fashion.
365
Love is the delightful interval between meeting a beautiful girl and discovering that she looks like a haddock.
366
I think the most liberating thing I did early on was to free myself from any concern with my looks as they pertained to my work.
367
My friends have said, ‘Wait, you’re pretty, and you sing? What do you mean you’re interested in science?’ I have to just hold my head and go, ‘Do you hear yourself?’ By no means should you ever limit yourself because of what others think or because of their perceptions of what someone looks like in a certain field.
368
It is always the case that when the Christian looks back, he is looking at the forgiveness of sins.
369
There’s also something of an illusion in that, you can perhaps record a TV thing one month and complete a book the next and then be in a play. Then, if they all come out at once, it looks as if you’re actually juggling a million things.
370
371
All the power to them but I’m not interested in making yet another show that looks like some other show.
372
In ‘Anniyan,’ the character I did had three different looks in the film, and I was able to carry it off.
373
After marriage, the other man’s wife looks more beautiful.
374
All organizations start with a structure that looks like a dynamic solar system. They can be very fast, agile. They attract people who play around with crazy ideas.
375
An awful lot of England is slowly eroding, in ways that I find really distressing, and an awful lot of it is the hedgerows… We’re reaching the point where a lot of the English countryside looks just like Iowa – just kind of open space.
376
377
To me, it’s far more efficient to mobilize the imagination. It’s far more efficient to hear a creaking step, for example, than to see the face of a monster, which usually looks ridiculous, and where you know that the blood is ketchup.
378
‘CBS Sunday Morning‘ goes by its own pulse, a far cry from the fast-paced, Trump-obsessed cable news world. It’s quality. It’s often uplifting, even the hard topics it looks at.
379
380
381
If something looks like a tax avoidance scheme, then that’s probably what it is – and there’s lots of clever people working day and night to close them down.
382
383
384
I don’t think Ripley is gay. He appreciates good looks in other men, that’s true. But he’s married in later books. I’m not saying he’s very strong in the sex department. But he makes it in bed with his wife.
385
If she looks natural on screen, that’s just the way she was in life – very unassuming and full of life.
386
The idea of getting old is horrific, but I don’t want to make it worse by becoming a grotesque caricature. A lot of people have made that mistake of trying so hard to hang on to their looks that they make themselves look really scary.
387
388
389
390
391
392
I was always a character actor, basically, that sometimes looks like a leading man.
393
394
395
Try to forget what objects you have before you – a tree, a house, a field, or whatever. Merely think, ‘Here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow,’ and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact color and shape, until it gives you your own impression of the scene before you.
396
But I think you have to – whatever the environment looks like, it does enter into people’s art work one way or another; it’s very remote or it isn’t. It’s remote in my work but it has to have a certain degree of ordinariness.
397
398
My self-confidence doesn’t come from my looks.
399
400
401
If it looks good, you’ll see it. If it sounds good, you’ll hear it. If its marketed right, you’ll buy it. But… If its real… you’ll feel it.
402
‘Outlander’ is progressive in the way it looks at women.
403
We’d be nowhere without our looks.
404
I’d rather be appreciated for my character in a film than my looks.
405
We judge on the basis of what somebody looks like, skin color, whether we think they’re beautiful or not. That space on the Internet allows you to converse with somebody with none of those things involved.
406
The poor man looks upon the law as an enemy, not as a friend. For him, the law is always taking something away.
407
Despite the fact the studio looks out of five windows onto a picture perfect view of sky, hills and wide open spaces, I work with my blinds firmly drawn, daylight filtered through their white canvas, a painterly northern light falling through two big skylights above my table, and nothing visible outside to distract me.
408
I’ve been doing comedy longer than I haven’t been doing comedy, as I was performing for three years before I even got on ‘The Tonight Show.’ There’s truly nothing like it; it’s intense and exhilarating, even though it looks so casual.
409
I don’t feel the obligation to have a big explosion in the first 20 seconds so the audience doesn’t turn on another channel. We are trying to make something that looks like a feature film that was bought for television and I think we are succeeding.
410
What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.
411
412
413
MAC is truly at the forefront of trendsetting, which reminds me every time I see a MAC campaign or the incredible looks their artists create backstage at fashion weeks around the world. It’s an honor to partner with a brand with such an incredible heritage and unrivaled expertise in makeup artistry.
414
The people who live in a golden age usually go around complaining how yellow everything looks.
415
416
It is from the progeny of this parent cell that we all take our looks; we still share genes around, and the resemblance of the enzymes of grasses to those of whales is in fact a family resemblance.
417
He looks as though he’s been weaned on a pickle.
418
What’s nice about concrete is that it looks unfinished.
419
Working for a big company is, I believe, much risker than it looks.
420
421
I live in Hamburg; that’s in the north. And I live on the outskirts of town. It looks like countryside.
422
I can’t wait til I get the chance to be a character and how my face looks isn’t the first consideration.
423
Makeup looks better if your skin is not dry. And sometimes, if my skin peels, then it’s all just bad. Basically, take care of your skin to make your makeup look nice.
424
All my confidence has disappeared because the whole nation thinks I’m a homophobe who looks like a monster.
425
426
People only go by looks. If you have big breasts it doesn’t mean that you are dumb.
427
428
Creativity makes a leap, then looks to see where it is.
429
430
431
It’s very hard to respect people on holiday – everybody looks so silly at the beach, it makes you hate humanity – but when you see people at their work they elicit respect, whether it’s a mechanic, a stonemason or an accountant.
432
433
434
435
436
I want to be remembered for my roles and films rather than my looks.
437
Gluttony is harder than it looks. It’s listed as a sin, as something you give in to, when really it’s a skill, requiring not just hunger but resilience. That’s why the most resilient city in the country, New Orleans, is also the most gluttonous.
438
439
Hollywood looks to these young people now to say something to the world. I have nothing against that, I think a lot of people have things to say. But I think you need life experience.
440
In choosing global corporate partners UNICEF emphasises compatibility with our core values and looks to build alliances that advance our mission of ensuring the health, education, equality and protection for all the world‘s children.
441
Being president looks like the worst job in the world.
442
443
444
Wong Kar Wai is a very intense character, very personable, and I believe in general he does not like and he would not want his actors to show their true looks and their true personality on screen.
445
446
447
The communist model does not work economically, we all realised that, but the capitalist model in the modern world also looks to be unsustainable.
448
I think people have surgery for psychological reasons more than because of their looks.
449
Because the competitive landscape of the web is such that the site which looks and works best gets the most traffic, developers and designers put a premium on the presentation of that content and let structural markup take a back seat.
450
For me, working out is nothing to do with looks. It’s to let it all out – the stress, the self-consciousness – you think less; it makes you more centred.
451
452
453
An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.
454
It is strange. I see all the privileges and greatness of the future. It already looks grand, beautiful. Tell them I went lovingly, trustfully, peacefully.
455
456
The reason for the sadness of this modern age and the men who live in it is that it looks for the truth in everything and finds it.
457
458
Look at a football field. It looks like a big movie screen. This is theatre. Football combines the strategy of chess. It’s part ballet. It’s part battleground, part playground. We clarify, amplify and glorify the game with our footage, the narration and that music, and in the end create an inspirational piece of footage.
459
We must get into the picture business. This is a new industry and a gold mine. it looks like another telephone industry.
460
461
My mother passed away when I was 19. She always made me feel confident, and I’ve carried that feeling with me my entire life. It’s helped me in this industry, where people are sizing up your looks.
462
463
So go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground.
464
It looks like it’s been furnished by discount stores.
465
Beauty doesn’t matter because in the end, we all lose our looks and all we have is our heart.
466
Like, I don’t do drills at all. I think that’s why a lot of people who handle the basketball, I think mine looks different. You know, ’cause I’ve never done a drill. I’ve never done ‘get to a chair and go through your legs,’ or ‘get to a spot and a cone and go through your legs or behind your back.’
467
Tell your wife often how terrific she looks.
468
469
470
A lot of movie stars are not great actors; they’re just very good-looking. And when they start to age and they don’t have the looks any more, then it’s over.
471
The entire planet is drawn to Indian culture and soft power. The global community looks to us for solutions to international problems – whether terrorism, money laundering or climate change. In a globalised world, our responsibilities are also global.
472
For Parisian women, it’s not about looks; it’s not about style – for me, it’s more about this beautiful city, culture, and lifestyle. It’s more about attitude – style it your own way.
473
I respect all religions, but I’m not a deeply religious person. But I try and live life in the right way, respecting other people. I wasn’t brought up in a religious way, but I believe there’s something out there that looks after you.
474
The deal looks bad and smells worse.
475
Meditation is a state of mind which looks at everything with complete attention, totally, not just parts of it. And no one can teach you how to be attentive. If any system teaches you how to be attentive, then you are attentive to the system, and that is not attention.
476
Carnegie Hall is as good as they say it is. It’s not like Stonehenge which looks great in books but then you go there and it’s a pile of rocks next to a highway. There’s actually a highway right next to it, but you don’t see that in pictures.
477
I’ve looked at photographs of myself during concerts and it sometimes looks as if I’m in a fencing move, with a guitar in my hands instead of a sword.
478
479
480
481
482
483
Even a child, if he looks at a map of the world, can point out that the Indonesian archipelago forms one unity. On the map, there can be shown a unity of the group of islands between two great oceans – the Pacific Ocean and the Indies Ocean – and between two continents – the continent of Asia and the continent of Australia.
484
You learn different things through fiction. Historians are always making a plot about how certain things came to happen. Whereas a novelist looks at tiny little things and builds up a sort of map, like a painting, so that you see the shapes of things.
485
I’m always scared of trends. The runways are always so trend-oriented, but I always feel for the women. The real women that buy cosmetics want to see the trends, but they don’t necessarily go for them. And I always encourage women to find what looks best on them.
486
I think that people put a lot of worth into looks. Unfortunately, there’s a standard that so many people look up to that is unrealistic for everyone’s body type.
487
Of course it looks bad when you’re not executing. When things go bad, it’s not going to look good.
488
489
In the original introduction to the word meme in the last chapter of ‘The Selfish Gene,’ I did actually use the metaphor of a ‘virus.’ So when anybody talks about something going viral on the Internet, that is exactly what a meme is, and it looks as though the word has been appropriated for a subset of that.
490
When it comes to the qualities that I look for in a partner, I’d say looks are a factor but the inner beauty is more important as it adds to the personality.
491
For me, the most important consideration is to choose attire that is functional, but looks stylish too. That means going for colors that are understated and use smart fabrics.
492
493
We were watching the first series recently, and it has a charm, a kind of amateur charm. At that point we didn’t involve ourselves technically at all – we just messed about and told our jokes – and it looks a bit like that.
494
495
496
Unfortunately, most actors want to play off their own personal mystique and good looks and whatever, but that will only carry you but so far.
497
If you grew up in a household with a football coach who looks like a drill sergeant, you would think you would be tough.
498
I love to keep my hair long, and I think every lady should have long hair. After all, it looks so feminine and beautiful.
499
French architecture always manages to combine the most magnificent underlying themes of architecture; like Roman design, it looks to the community.
500
The world itself looks cleaner and so much more beautiful. Maybe we can make it that way – the way God intended it to be – by giving everyone, eventually, that new perspective from out in space.
501
502
When the soul looks out of its body, it should see only beauty in its path. These are the sights we must hold in mind, in order to move to a higher place.
503
The natural consequence of our submission, even in part, to the system that looks to compelling the export of raw products, the exhaustion of the land, the cheapening of labour, and the export of the labourer.
504
When I finish a painting, it usually looks as surprising to me as to anyone else.
505
I like when a girl knows what she looks like and dresses to accentuate those features.
506
507
508
509
Until you play it, St. Andrews looks like the sort of real estate you couldn’t give away.
510
511
512
513
I was very insecure about my looks.
514
Pop Art looks out into the world. It doesn’t look like a painting of something, it looks like the thing itself.
515
Because of the audience I get and the fact that these people aren’t traditional comics buyers I don’t think the comic industry looks at that and thinks that is a very respectable thing. I’m very used to it. I’m not the guy who wins awards and gets mentioned in magazines.
516
If it looks sexy, wear it.
517
518
519
I have always said I am a player who looks for new challenges.
520
