Plain white T-shirts do it for me every time. You can spend anything from £3 to £50 on a T-shirt, but I’ve bought some great ones from H&M, as well as shelling out on Duffer Of St George and a Polish label I discovered while filming ‘Robin Hood‘ in Hungary called Scotch And Soda.

41
42
I used to feel unsafe right in the moment of an accomplishment – I felt the ground fall from under my feet because this could be the end. And even now, while everyone is celebrating, I’m on to the next thing. I don’t want to get lost in this big cushion of success.

45
Basins of attraction, of self organization, show up as well in our complex social environment, in human organizations. Here again, while we cannot predict the result of any given input, we can say that it will likely fall within one of several areas.
46
I have always been fascinated by the way things work and how they came to take the form that they did. Writing about these things satisfies my curiosity about the made world while at the same time giving me an opportunity to design a new explanation for the processes that shape it.

48
While we teach, we learn.
49
While weight loss is important, what’s more important is the quality of food you put in your body – food is information that quickly changes your metabolism and genes.

56
Men are like the stars; some generate their own light while others reflect the brilliance they receive.
57
The wagering thing for a lawyer is very interesting. Will there be mobile sports wagering? Will there be mobile prop betting? Conceivably, someone sitting in basketball area placing prop bets on a mobile phone while the individual is 10 feet from the court? Some of the possibilities are angst-producing.

While one man can discover a certain thing by himself, another is never able to understand it, even if taught by means of all possible expressions and metaphors, and during a long period; his mind can in no way grasp it, his capacity is insufficient for it.
64
There definitely will be flying cars, but whether there’ll be flying cars for most people to use, it’ll probably take a long time to straighten everything out, all the rules and hassles. It’ll take a while to figure out how to keep people from crashing into each other.
65
At Vienna, one of the audience affirmed publicly that my performance was not surprising, for he had distinctly seen, while I was playing my variations, the devil at my elbow, directing my arm and guiding my bow. My resemblance to the devil was a proof of my origin.
66
I saw that publishing all over the world was deeply constrained by self-censorship, economics and political censorship, while the military-industrial complex was growing at a tremendous rate, and the amount of information that it was collecting about all of us vastly exceeded the public imagination.

You have to figure out how you can step forward and affect your own life. I think that sense of empowerment is actually really positive, specifically for the young generation because they’ve been bystanders in their own lives for a while.
74
75
When I was about 9, I had polio, and people were very frightened for their children, so you tended to be isolated. I was paralyzed for a while, so I watched television.

81
While we are postponing, life speeds by.
82
I’ve been making music for a while. And I could read about myself on the Internet for a while.

97
Dad was, is, and always will be one of the kindest, most generous, gentlest souls I’ve ever known, and while there are few things I know for certain right now, one of them is that not just my world but the entire world is forever a little darker, less colorful, and less full of laughter in his absence.
98
99
What I always wanna tell young people now: Pay attention. This isn’t gonna happen again. Rather than try to understand it as it’s going along, have it go along for a while and then understand it.
100
Storytelling is not what I do for a living – it is how I do all that I do while I am living.
101
While films are a very visual and emotional artistic medium, video games take it one step further into the realm of a unique personal experience.
102
A father figure is providing for you, as well as showing you things. A big brother is giving you the game and showing you things too – but a father figure is providing for you while he’s showing you things, and raising you.

Democracy means government by the uneducated, while aristocracy means government by the badly educated.
106
Jealousy is both reasonable and belongs to reasonable men, while envy is base and belongs to the base, for the one makes himself get good things by jealousy, while the other does not allow his neighbour to have them through envy.
107
I work in a business environment forty hours a week, and writing is what I do to unwind. It allows me to transport myself to a happy place where I can indulge my hopes, beliefs, aspirations and fantasies. It also allows me to live and breathe a topic for eighteen months while I’m researching and writing.

While acting in ‘W,’ my worries about the way I act settled down. I also discovered another side of myself. It was a turning point.

114
People try to function in the real world – the analog world – while they’re texting in the digital world, and they run into the car in front of them. It doesn’t work to be in both.
115
The New Order wants to put our national interest in the driving seat while continuing with our ideology to fight against colonialism and imperialism.
116
Wealth brings with it refinement, the spirit of conservation, while poverty inspires adventurous ideas, the desire to change things, and has little care for life.
117
I was only a teenager when I played with the Herd and Humble Pie, and I was still in my early twenties when ‘Frampton Comes Alive!’ came out. That was an immense amount of work in a relatively short period of time. I needed to stop for a while and grow up, but I didn’t do that.
118
119
120
It is not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather, our concern must be to live while we’re alive – to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are.
121
Satan, our adversary, wants us to fail. He spreads lies as part of his effort to destroy our belief. He slyly suggests that the doubter, the skeptic, the cynic is sophisticated and intelligent, while those who have faith in God and His miracles are naive, blind, or brainwashed.
122
Nothing is as irritating as the fellow who chats pleasantly while he’s overcharging you.
123
Politics is just like show business. You have a hell of an opening, coast for a while, and then have a hell of a close.

126
127
I tried to keep both arts alive, but the camera won. I found that while the camera does not express the soul, perhaps a photograph can!
128
129
I’ve always wanted to be in journalism. I even started a course at Loughborough doing media studies. I like all sports, and I am keen on writing. But I thought that while I was still young, I ought to make a real go of it at badminton. So I have put all my focus on playing sport instead of writing about it.
130
Some people come into our life as a blessing, while others come into our life as a lesson, so love them for who they are instead of judging them for who they are not.
131
Both old and young alike ought to seek wisdom: the former in order that, as age comes over him, he may be young in good things because of the grace of what has been, and the latter in order that, while he is young, he may at the same time be old, because he has no fear of the things which are to come.
132
Music should be made to make people forget their problems, if only for a short while.
133
While analogies are useful, however, they can also be misleading. They smuggle in assumptions that can be wrong.
134
While drawing, I discover what I really want to say.
135
136
137
‘Mayabazar’ was the film I immensely loved as a kid. Only when I became a filmmaker about 20 years later did I realise its technical marvel and what a great epic it was. I and my visual effects supervisor, while making ‘Yamadonga,’ took two days to understand the magnification shot of Ghatothkatcha’s persona.
138
139
It is quite amazing what I didn’t feel after a while. I didn’t really want to feel things.
140
141
142
143

You can hype a questionable product for a little while, but you’ll never build an enduring business.
147
148

150
151
If we have built on the fragile cornerstones of human wisdom, pride, and conditional love, things may look good for a while, but a weak foundation causes collapse when storms hit.
152
While I believe our Constitution allows for State and local governments to execute the power of eminent domain for those purposes that specifically serve the public good, condemning property solely to implement economic development plans is not serving the public good.
153
154
The trends that are shaping the twenty-first-century world embody both promise and peril. Globalization, for example, has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty while contributing to social fragmentation and a massive increase in inequality, not to mention serious environmental damage.
155
156
157
The truth is that Oxford is simply a very beautiful city in which it is convenient to segregate a certain number of the young of the nation while they are growing up.
158
Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.
159
160
My daughter’s name is Neesyn Dacey but everyone calls her Dacey. Her mom chose Neesyn and I chose Dacey after she was born. The mother is a good friend of mine who I was seeing a while ago. We are no longer together.
161
Most of those coming from the mainland are very destitute, almost naked. I am trying to find places for those able to work, and provide for them as best I can, so as to lighten the burden on the Government as much as possible, while at the same time they learn to respect themselves by earning their own living.
162
163
While there is a chance of the world getting through its troubles, I hold that a reasonable man has to behave as though he were sure of it. If at the end your cheerfulness in not justified, at any rate you will have been cheerful.
164
165
166
You come into the world alone and you go out of the world alone yet it seems to me you are more alone while living than even going and coming.
167
In bourgeois society capital is independent and has individuality, while the living person is dependent and has no individuality.
168
There is danger that we lose sight of what our friend is absolutely, while considering what she is to us alone.
169
I used to play golf. I wanted to be a better player, but after a while, I realized I’d always stink. And that’s when I really started to enjoy the game.
170
When you sing with a group of people, you learn how to subsume yourself into a group consciousness because a capella singing is all about the immersion of the self into the community. That’s one of the great feelings – to stop being me for a little while and to become us. That way lies empathy, the great social virtue.
171
While you are experimenting, do not remain content with the surface of things.
172
173
174
175
Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
176
177
178
179
The sky is always there for me, while my life has been going through many, many changes. When I look up the sky, it gives me a nice feeling, like looking at an old friend.
180
What does it mean to be an American? While each of us may have our own specific answer to that question, we likely can agree on the basic principles of America: freedom, equal opportunity, and rights accompanied by responsibilities.
181
I often talked to Bing Crosby, and while I liked him, I never understood why he was so popular. To me his voice was just a gimmick.
182

188
The universe can take quite a while to deliver.
189
Willingness to change is a strength, even if it means plunging part of the company into total confusion for a while.
190
While it may seem small, the ripple effects of small things is extraordinary.
191
192
And where I excel is ridiculous, sickening, work ethic. You know, while the other guy’s sleeping? I’m working.
193
I used to do my best thinking while staring out airplane windows. The seat-back video system put a stop to that. Now I sit and watch old’ Friends’ and ‘Everybody Loves Raymond‘ episodes. Walking is good, but here again, technology has interfered. I like to listen to iTunes while I walk home. I guess I don’t think anymore.
194
CCTV is seen either as a symbol of Orwellian dystopia or a technology that will lead to crime-free streets and civil behaviour. While arguments continue, there is very little solid data in the public domain about the costs, quantity and effectiveness of surveillance.
195
196
197
Throughout my life, I’ve always been really close with girls and made friends with girls. And I’ve always been a really sickly, feminine person anyhow, so I thought I was gay for a while because I didn’t find any of the girls in my high school attractive at all.
198
But you have to do what you dream of doing even while you’re afraid.
199
World’s children cannot wait any longer. While international community debates and issues recommendations, statements and fine speeches, world’s children – marginalised, socially excluded, poor and vulnerable – continue to suffer.
200
201
I believe that you’re here on Earth for a short time, and while you’re here, you shouldn’t forget it.
202
203
It is well for people who think to change their minds occasionally in order to keep them clean. For those who do not think, it is best at least to rearrange their prejudices once in a while.
204
205
While loneliness has the potential to kill, connection has even more potential to heal.
206
207
I write… sonnets… and writing sonnets is boring. You have to find rhymes; you have to write hendecasyllables; so after a while, I get bored and my drawer is overflowing with unfinished short poems.
208
209
What helps with aging is serious cognition – thinking and understanding. You have to truly grasp that everybody ages. Everybody dies. There is no turning back the clock. So the question in life becomes: What are you going to do while you’re here?
210
While the crash only took place six months ago, I am convinced we have now passed the worst, and with continued unity of effort, we shall rapidly recover. There is one certainty of the future of a people of the resources, intelligence and character of the people of the United States – that is, prosperity.
211
I struggled with being a broke college graduate, and while all my friends were getting career jobs, I was working horrible part-time jobs. That’s why now, even when I get tired, I think, ‘This is what I asked for.’
212
While technology is important, it’s what we do with it that truly matters.
213
Sometimes people wonder why aeroplanes are so cheap and rockets are so expensive. Even the most superficial comparison shows one obvious difference: aeroplane engines use outside air to burn their fuel, while rockets have to carry their own oxidisers along.
214
My mom and dad were ‘helicopter parents,’ literally. Meaning, I didn’t have a nanny, so I went up in the helicopter. My entire early childhood education consisted of tagging along while they reported on car accidents, multiple-alarm fires, and shootouts.
215
For those who do not think, it is best at least to rearrange their prejudices once in a while.
216
While I appreciate what goes into making high-end Indian dishes, street food has a special place in my heart. Being raised in India, street food played an integral part in my life while growing up.
217
Masks are wonderfully paradoxical in this way: while they may hide the physical reality, they can show us how a person wants to be seen.
218
Buckhannon, population 5,639, is a deeply conservative town and long has been. While coal is its past, oil and gas are its likely future. It’s a town where guns are sold at yard sales, where Pentecostal churches are nearly as common as restaurants, and where distrust of Hillary Clinton is visceral and deep-seated.
219
220
221
222
223
224
Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things.
225
There are divisions between a culinary chef and a dessert chef, also called a pastry chef. There are specializations within the pastry chef field. Some pastry chefs specialize in baking breads, while others are master cake designers. Each field requires an exceptional level of creativity and attention to detail.
226
We are free, but not to be evil, not to be indifferent to human suffering, not to profit from the people, from the work created and sustained through their spirit of political association, while refusing to contribute to the political state that we profit from.
227
228
229
In 1986, Pakistan got the blasphemy law. So, while we had just two cases of blasphemy before that year, now we have thousands. It shows that one should be careful while bringing religion into legislation, because the law itself can become an instrument of persecution.
230
231
It was an amazing experience, a dream come true, to sing and act alongside Prince and become dear friends with all the members of The Revolution while filming ‘Purple Rain.’
232
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.
233
234
George Bush is by American standards rabidly Upper Class – Eastern, Socially Attractive, WASP, 19th-century money, several generations of Andover and Yale (and, while we’re at it, his father, George H. W. ‘Poppy‘ Bush, was a former president and his grandfather was the Nazis’ U.S. banker in the 1930s).
235
What’s different now is that while political leaders used to give talking points to talk radio, now talk-radio hosts are giving talking points to political leaders. It’s all part of the suffocating spin cycle we’re in. In media, politics and publishing, the conventional wisdom is to play to this base.
236
I have warned many times about the guaranteed dangers of betting with your heart instead of your head – big darkness, soon come – but every once in a while you get a fair chance to have it both ways, and the annual NCAA basketball Tournament is one of them.
237
I am the master of my fate and I am the captain of my boat. While ups and downs are a part of everyone’s journey, how you face it makes you the person or artiste you are.
238
There is nothing that Bitcoin can do which Ethereum can’t. While Ethereum is less battle-tested, it is moving faster, has better leadership, and has more developer mindshare.
239
Democrats have a long history of utilizing the threat of a potential Ebola outbreak to request massive federal funds while attacking Republicans for expressing skepticism over their funding schemes.
240

241
242
Whatever you do, have fun while doing it. That’s important for me.
243
244
245
246
While we walking, while we breathing, we dying… I be really feeling like, even though we live to die, some people be dying to live.
247
It is really very important while you are young to live in an environment in which there is no fear. Most of us, as we grow older, become frightened; we are afraid of living, afraid of losing a job, afraid of tradition, afraid of what the neighbours, or what the wife or husband would say, afraid of death.
248
249
I look at basketball as like a storm. But it’s the eye of the storm. The calmest place of it is to be right in the eye of it. And that’s what basketball is for me; it’s my eye. And while everything else around me is going on,’ he continued, ‘the destruction and things like that, basketball keeps me calm.
250
251
252
How can you be in hell while you are in my heart?
253
To get rich, you have to be making money while you’re asleep.
254
It took me a while to understand the meaning of a franchise: the reasons why you see lawyer, doctor, cop shows. It’s not because anyone in their right mind says, ‘You know, what’s the most fascinating thing in the world?’ It’s because you need something new that happens every week in a frame.
255
I need to keep working on myself for a while.
256
To bring up a child in the way he should go, travel that way yourself once in a while.
257
258
The monarchy is finished. It was finished a while ago, but they’re still making the corpses dance.
259
We all share the same goal to keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have them, while fully protecting the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding, responsible Americans.
260
261
The thing is this: You got to have fun while you’re fightin’ for freedom, ’cause you don’t always win.
262
263
The distinction between children and adults, while probably useful for some purposes, is at bottom a specious one, I feel. There are only individual egos, crazy for love.
264
265
Nothing in life is as important as you think it is while you are thinking about it.
266
There is a lurking sense that there is a kind of seedy corruption underlying a lot of public life today. But while journalism does a very good job of describing that corruption, it is failing to bring it into a bigger focus. To explain what it is all about.
267
It is not possible to go forward while looking back.
268
She discovered with great delight that one does not love one’s children just because they are one’s children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.
269
I’m thrilled to continue my partnership with U by Kotex for Generation Know while helping to empower girls. I’ve always been a motivational resource for my younger sisters and hope I can positively impact and inspire other young girls too.
270
271
Success is blocked by concentrating on it and planning for it… Success is shy – it won’t come out while you’re watching.
272
When I am brushing my teeth, I’m bending my leg behind me, or I’m lifting my leg up and holding it in that position so I’m squeezing my butt in. I can do that while I’m washing or slicing vegetables, too. Or I go up and down on my toes, working my calves a little bit.
273
Large-scale deforestation can be prevented while increasing food production through better, smarter agriculture.
274
I’m funny on camera sometimes. In life, once in a while. Once in a while.
275
While the Tan Yan Kee foundation believes that it is merely scratching the surface relative to the gargantuan problems in the education sector, it envisions that one day it will be able to train more teachers and provide much-needed facilities that will transform schools into more conducive learning environments.
276
You’ve got to think about big things while you’re doing small things, so that all the small things go in the right direction.
277
The greatest gift of all time is that you can make creation infectious because people spend less time being negative… If you log all the time with negativity in the while world, I wonder how much better the world would be if people sat down and did something positive. It spirals.
278
While I don’t necessarily believe the cliche that ‘everything happens for a reason,’ I do believe that every encounter, every situation, and every challenge I’ve experienced has shaped me into the woman I am today. And I am proud to say that I have never backed down from life’s challenges.
279
Remember, life itself is a mission. While we are on the go, we need to stop between steps to re-focus on the Word and the Will of God. While we are on the go, I mean, while we are on the mission, we need to sometimes stop at intervals to assess our progress and prepare ourselves for the challenges ahead.

When I went to San Francisco in that cold late spring of 1967, I did not even know what I wanted to find out, and so I just stayed around a while and made a few friends.
283
284
While we read history we make history.
285
286
Perhaps it’s an accident of nationality, but the English treasure subtlety and appreciate not having everything spelled out for them, while Americans want everything made apparent.
287
From the point of the view of the nation’s power, it was obvious that while we were fighting the Sino-Japanese war, every effort was to be made to avoid adding to our enemies and opening additional fronts.
288
The hand is, in the highest degree, a human characteristic. It is man’s organ of grasp and of the sense of touch, while in animals these two functions are relegated to the mouth.
289
290
291
It’s time for political leaders across the ideological spectrum to realize that, while partisanship is understandable, hyper-partisanship is destructive to our country. We need more visionary leaders who will earnestly strive for bipartisanship and finding policy solutions that can move America forward.
292
Feminism is liberalism, and look at what it’s doing, look at what it’s promoting, look at what it’s condoning. All the while, we have to live in this lie that there’s some sort of Republican War on Women. We don’t do this to women! We don’t objectify women like this.
293
Zumba is a great dance-cardio option that’s an immersive experience for participants and is not only effective but allows you to express yourself while getting in shape.

Because of the diverse conditions of humans, it happens that some acts are virtuous to some people, as appropriate and suitable to them, while the same acts are immoral for others, as inappropriate to them.
301
302
303
It’s not what you do once in a while, it’s what you do day in and day out that makes the difference.
304
305
Religion is run by thought police. ‘Obey. Listen. This is what you do. Don’t ask questions. Go die for your country.’ The spirituality says, ‘Okay, you can die for your country, but know what you’re doing while you’re doing it.’

As long as you keep one foot in the real world while the other foot’s in a fairy tale, that fairy tale is going to seem kind of attainable.

While all other sciences have advanced, that of government is at a standstill – little better understood, little better practiced now than three or four thousand years ago.
313
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.

In summers, while growing up in India, we often slept in the courtyard under the stars.

Advances in automation, artificial intelligence and robotics, while increasing productivity, will also cause major upheavals to the workforce.

While it was entertaining to develop content through the Dr. DisRespect character, it’s time for him to retire.

Acting is a passion, but I have been taking time off to direct once in a while because it helps me reinvent myself.

In times of change learners inherit the earth; while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.
328
Nothing has prepared sharks, squid, krill and other sea creatures for industrial-scale extraction that destroys entire ecosystems while targeting a few species.
329
Though beauty gives you a weird sense of entitlement, it’s rather frightening and threatening to have others ascribe such importance to something you know you’re just renting for a while.
330
‘American Honey’ takes you into the feelings of a girl travelling through the United States while giddily in love. You see modern America through her intense feelings. But again and again the film pulls the rug out from under your feet – scenes never play out as you expect.

The songwriting was almost like something I did while I was waiting for my daughter to come back.
335
The tragedy of life is what dies inside a man while he lives.
336
337
When the federal government spends more each year than it collects in tax revenues, it has three choices: It can raise taxes, print money, or borrow money. While these actions may benefit politicians, all three options are bad for average Americans.
338
Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.
339
As it stands, motherhood is a sort of wilderness through which each woman hacks her way, part martyr, part pioneer; a turn of events from which some women derive feelings of heroism, while others experience a sense of exile from the world they knew.
340
Men talk of killing time, while time quietly kills them.
341
If, after hearing my songs, just one human being is inspired to say something nasty to a friend or, perhaps to strike a loved one, it will all have been worth the while.
342
Meat, to me, it’s slightly boring. Hold on, I love meat too, but only once in a while. You get a piece of meat, and you put it in your mouth, you chew, the first five seconds, all the juices flow around your mouth, they’re gone, and then you are 20 more seconds chewing something that is tasteless at this point.
343
In Holland I have seen well-meaning, principled people blinded by multiculturalism, overwhelmed by the imperative to be sensitive and respectful of immigrant culture, while ignoring criminal abuse of women and girls.
344
A lot has happened over the years. And while this nation has been tested by war, and it’s been tested by recession and all manner of challenges – I stand before you again tonight, after almost two terms as your president, to tell you I am more optimistic about the future of America than ever before.

Don’t knock the weather; nine-tenths of the people couldn’t start a conversation if it didn’t change once in a while.
354
It took me a while to learn, but we are allowed to make mistakes and have flaws.
355
While we cannot predict the future, we will most surely live it. Every action and decision we take – or don’t – ripples into the future. For the first time, we have the capability, the technology, and the knowledge to direct those ripples.

There was a recording studio in my school, and I knew this kid who had a key, so I’d write lyrics in school while I was in class, and then, in a 10-minute break, I recorded the song ‘Hurt’ in one go at the school studio.
362
It’s difficult when you’re not out there. I guess not playing for a while, you can definitely be a little moody.
363
364
Too little is it considered, while we gaze on aristocratic beauty, how much good food, soft lying, warm wrapping, ease of mind, have to do with the attractions which command our admiration.

Peace and abstinence from European interferences are our objects, and so will continue while the present order of things in America remain uninterrupted.
375
While academic abilities remain integral, it is the work ethics that form the soul of the business.
376
My Norwegian wife Aase was a Pan Am stewardess back in the Seventies when we met. She was very attractive, and we became good friends, but I was travelling a lot and she was jetting back and forth across the Atlantic, so it was a while before we got together.
377
When it comes to choreography practice, the rest of the five members learn from the dance instructor while Rap Monster and I are excluded from the group and end up learning the moves in the corner.
378
No one really listens to anyone else, and if you try it for a while you’ll see why.
379
380
My mum wants me to get married – and have children, of course. She’s met Gaga; we’ve been dating a while. We’re in a committed relationship, and I’m really happy in my relationship. I’m a very lucky guy. As far as having more of a domestic life and settling down into my relationship, we have to see what happens.
381
While I thought that I was learning how to live, I have been learning how to die.
382
You see opportunity… Opportunity is like a window: every once in a while, it opens, if you’re ready for that opportunity. So be prepared, work hard, and follow your dreams.
383
384
Tombs are the clothes of the dead and a grave is a plain suit; while an expensive monument is one with embroidery.
385
386
Far too often, we have limited the definition of the Church. While not in all cases, in many cases, ‘Church’ has become an informational, inspirational weekly gathering rather than the group of people that God has ordained from Heaven to operate on his behalf on Earth in order to bring Heaven’s viewpoint into history.

I’m realizing for the first time, your life goes on while you’re trying to pursue this career. I saw my career as everything. But you have this life, too. Living your life fully, you come to know yourself better. You’ll find the place for it.
397
The spine of the FBI is the rule of law. The spine of the FBI is a commitment to doing the right thing, in the right way, while protecting civil liberties.

I experienced a lot of things while I was working with Dibakar Banerjee.
413
About the only difference between the poor and the rich, is this, the poor suffer misery, while the rich have to enjoy it.
414
We should never forget the inevitable, as we will lose everything eventually. So, why fret over any kind of security? The idea is to just fly and experience it all while it lasts.
415
It seems to me we can never give up longing and wishing while we are thoroughly alive. There are certain things we feel to be beautiful and good, and we must hunger after them.
416
I was a scam artist in high school for a while.
417
418
Everything is dead while it lives.
419
Everyone wants to be happy – people find happiness in different ways. While you want to pursue your career 100 percent, I think it is very hard to give 100 percent in something else. It’s important to find this balance, and priorities change throughout life.
420
While I have never been more excited about SecondMarket, I have chosen to move on from day-to-day management of the private company/fund business so that I can focus 100% of my energy on our digital currency business.
421
422
While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.
423
People give more importance to material things, it all seems to be a power game, while people ought be making the most of every moment as time is fleeting.
424
And while the law of competition may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department.

While your life is the true expression of your faith, whom can you fear?
434
Take life on life’s terms – one day at a time. And have fun while you’re doing it.
435
While it is important for people to see your promise you must also remember that hope is the keeper of both happiness and disappointment, the father of both progress and failure.
436
437
While some doubted that connecting the world was actually important, we were building. While others doubted that this would be sustainable, you were forming lasting connections. We just cared more about connecting the world than anyone else. And we still do today.

441
I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to express the views of black people who otherwise don’t have access to power and the media. I have to take advantage of that while I’m still bankable.
442
Chilling out on the bed in your hotel room watching television, while wearing your own pajamas, is sometimes the best part of a vacation.
443
Modern people are only willing to believe in their computers, while I believe in myself.

I had short hair for a while, but I ended up loving it.
451
While you’re doing it, you don’t really know what you’re doing.
452
There are two kinds of talent, man-made talent and God-given talent. With man-made talent you have to work very hard. With God-given talent, you just touch it up once in a while.
453
454
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
455
President Trump can only do so much while pro-China socialists like AOC are in charge.
456
457
You have to strike while the iron is hot. You have to take downtime to see friends and family, but my passion is acting: pursuing those scary, challenging characters and working with passionate people.
458
Personality is less a finished product than a transitive process. While it has some stable features, it is at the same time continually undergoing change.
459
460
It seems like we wake up and it’s a race until you get to bed. It gets to you after a while and you think, ‘What the hell am I doing?’
461
462
When I first started fighting, it wasn’t the easiest thing. I didn’t have all the money in the world. I was eating Subway once in a while, some packets of oatmeal here and there. It wasn’t that bad, but it’s because I was fortunate and had good people there to support me.
463
464
No one ever committed suicide while reading a good book, but many have tried while trying to write one.
465
It’s nice to play a three-dimensional person every once in a while for a change of pace.
466
Leadership is all about emotional intelligence. Management is taught, while leadership is experienced.
467
Even while I’m really interested in playing female characters that are varied and interesting and dynamic, I’m not of the mind that you always want to play strong female characters. I think I just want to play characters that are interesting, and not all people are ‘strong.’
468
469
470
Money can’t buy happiness, but it can make you awfully comfortable while you’re being miserable.
471
I have a good cry once in a while; it’s such a great release. Or it could be a cry of joy – watching your child being born or your child walking across a graduation stage.
472
The difference between a Republican and a Democrat is the Democrat is a cannibal they have to live off each other, while the Republicans, why, they live off the Democrats.
473
To tell you the truth, while I do enjoy the grand-scale elements, it’s the personal scenes, the character moments that I really find satisfying. That’s where I get to delve into the characters’ minds and hearts. That’s where they become living, breathing beings to me.
474
What I like to do when I get to a new place is buy local music early on and listen to it while we’re driving around. I think it helps explain and illuminate the culture of where you are if local music is playing.
475
476
Money is not the most important thing, but when you need it, there are few substitutes. So while I like the things money can buy, I love what money won’t buy. It bought me a house but it won’t buy me a home. It would buy me a companion but it won’t buy me a friend.
477
478
Companies in the East put a lot more emphasis on human relationships, while those from the West focus on the product, the bottom line. Westerners appear to have more of a need for achievement, while in the East there’s more need for affiliation.
479
While we are examining into everything we sometimes find truth where we least expected it.
480
Some pro-life advocates focus almost exclusively on the rights and suffering of the unborn baby, while some pro-choice advocates focus equally exclusively on the rights and suffering of pregnant women. This is a distortion of the moral choice that confronts us as a society.
481
Wars will remain while human nature remains. I believe in my soul in cooperation, in arbitration; but the soldier‘s occupation we cannot say is gone until human nature is gone.

483
484
Oprah‘s got good politics, she’s got a good heart, and she’ll have us all up Jazzercising at six in the morning. This cannot be a bad thing, and reading a book while we’re Jazzercising. So America would be better off if Oprah were president.
485
Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.

Ambition. An overmastering desire to be vilified by enemies while living and made ridiculous by friends when dead.

A man has every season while a woman only has the right to spring.

I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.
493
No good work is ever done while the heart is hot and anxious and fretted.
494
Faith moves mountains, but you have to keep pushing while you are praying.
495
496
Retire at various times into the solitude of your own heart, even while outwardly engaged in discussions or transactions with others, and talk to God.
497
While it may seem scarier in the earlier days, I think ultimately the blockchain creates a safer world.
498
499
While it may be true that the best advertising is word-of-mouth, never lose sight of the fact it also can be the worst advertising.
500
What childishness is it that while there’s breath of life in our bodies, we are determined to rush to see the sun the other way around?
501
502
Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.
503
504
You feel very romantic when you’re in a ball gown. Everyone should wear one once in a while.
505
You’ve got to eat while you dream. You’ve got to deliver on short-range commitments, while you develop a long-range strategy and vision and implement it. The success of doing both. Walking and chewing gum if you will. Getting it done in the short-range, and delivering a long-range plan, and executing on that.
506
I always showed myself in the face of day, asserting the liberty and independence of my country, while some others, like owls, courted concealment and were too much afraid of losing their roosts to leave them for such a cause.
507
Strengths are not activities you’re good at, they’re activities that strengthen you. A strength is an activity that before you’re doing it you look forward to doing it; while you’re doing it, time goes by quickly and you can concentrate; after you’ve done it, it seems to fulfill a need of yours.
508
The fastest way to succeed is to look as if you’re playing by somebody else’s rules, while quietly playing by your own.
509
Never, ever exercise in front of a TV or while reading. You lose 50 percent of the benefit of the exercise by not hearing and feeling your heart rate, your sweat and the pain levels that need to be encountered in fitness training.
510
I’m delighted. I don’t know of anybody who had a statue built of them while they were living. It’s a great feeling.
511
The first experiments on the biological properties of radium were successfully made in France, with samples from our laboratory, while my husband was living.
512
513
514
I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.
515
While the State exists there can be no freedom; when there is freedom there will be no State.
516
Achievement is not always success, while reputed failure often is. It is honest endeavor, persistent effort to do the best possible under any and all circumstances.
517
518
I worked with Paul McCartney for a while and saw what it does to you to be treated like a god for twenty years.
519
Truth gets well if she is run over by a locomotive, while error dies of lockjaw if she scratches her finger.
520
521
522
I want to enjoy not getting recognised while it lasts. But the mask is a symbol of unity. Anyone can be a Walker.
523
524
525
526
As far as I know, you only live once. So, I want to make the most of it while I can and work with as many different people as I can.
527
You have to dream intentionally. Most people dream a dream when they are asleep. But to be a writer, you have to dream while you are awake, intentionally.
528
Police officers must act quickly to seize wrongdoers and obtain evidence while protecting themselves and bystanders. It is easy to second-guess their search-and-seizure decisions in a secure courtroom.
529
530
My mother Reba Vidyarthi was a Kathak dancer while my father Govind Vidyarthi was a theatre personality. Later on, he worked for Sangeet Natak Akademi and documented many dying art forms of India.
531
While a people preserves its language; it preserves the marks of liberty.
532
The Horny Toad in Cave Creek has great food. When I’m in Arizona, I have at least one meal there. I have a daughter who lives out there, and Dee Dee Wood, who was the choreographer on ‘Mary Poppins,’ lives out there. I still get out there once in a while, but not in the summer.
533
While photographs may not lie, liars may photograph.
534
535
It’s good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that money can’t buy.
536
537
538
I have worked on Wall Street and on Bay Street. I started a charity and I’ve been doing it while raising four children. And I think that’s the kind of experience people want to see from their political leaders. It’s real life experience.
539
A film like ‘Shirdi Sai’ caters to the family audiences, while ‘Rajanna’ evokes patriotic sense in viewers. ‘Damarukam,’ on the other hand, is a full-length commercial film made for the masses.
540
While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits, my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who’s out there just for the experience.
541
The good part about getting older is you stop trying to prove anything to anyone, including yourself. All you are in the pursuit of is collecting experiences – beautiful, fragile little soap bubbles that you store in your heart, and every once in a while you pull one out and gaze at the delicate pictures it shows you.
542
The only thing I’ve cooked while entertaining is stir-fry.
543
People have to realize that just because you’re a Christian, it doesn’t mean that you’re perfect, because every once in a while everyone stumbles. Living by faith is about when you do mess up, getting back up, brushing yourself off, and keep trying to improve where you mess up or where you have temptation.
544
545
546
Stupidity is infinitely more fascinating that intelligence. Intelligence has its limits while stupidity has none.
547
A handful of men, inured to war, proceed to certain victory, while on the contrary, numerous armies of raw and undisciplined troops are but multitudes of men dragged to the slaughter.
548
549
You don’t want to become guilty of plagiarism by letting someone else’s words get inadvertently mixed in with your own. If you do feel the need to paste in a block of research while you’re writing, be sure to highlight the copied text in a different color so you can go back and remove or rewrite it entirely later.
550
When I finished my residency in New Orleans, I went to L.A. where I would work as a doctor during the day, and then at night I would actually go to The Improv and do standup, all the while kind of cultivating my comedy resume.

553
554
Zombies let us explore notions of the apocalypse – no water, food, medical care, the government imploding – while letting us sleep at night.
555
My biggest flaw is probably my attention span or lack thereof. And while it might seem contradictory, my biggest strength is my work ethic.
556
Man’s unique reward, however, is that while animals survive by adjusting themselves to their background, man survives by adjusting his background to himself.
557
I have thought about moving to Dubai for a while. It’s a city that I love.
558
I find myself wanting to make music at the dining room table or in the bedroom – I’m kind of a mobile writer, so I sort of move around the house. But the attic is definitely where I can make the most noise. While everyone on the lower floors screams ‘Earthquake!’ But no! It’s just my bass!
559
560
For every cyclist who jumps a red light, a thousand drivers break speed limits or gape dangerously at their smartphones while driving.
561
Solutions will not be found while Indigenous people are treated as victims for whom someone else must find solutions.
562
563
To achieve something I don’t think is a big thing but to maintain and sustain it, is an art. This is something few people possess while others don’t.
564
I stopped playing the drums when I was ten, and I picked up Rubik’s Cubes. I was doing that for a while, and then I got into cinematography.
565
He whom the gods love dies young, while he is in health, has his senses and his judgments sound.
566
567
As a novelist, you could say that I am dreaming while I am awake, and every day I can continue with yesterday‘s dream. Because it is a dream, there are so many contradictions and I have to adjust them to make the story work. But, in principle, the original dream does not change.
568
It’s no good running a pig farm badly for 30 years while saying, ‘Really, I was meant to be a ballet dancer.’ By then, pigs will be your style.
569
What does mysticism really mean? It means the way to attain knowledge. It’s close to philosophy, except in philosophy you go horizontally while in mysticism you go vertically.
570
571
572
Ultimately we need to recognize that while humans continue to build urban landscapes, we share these spaces with others species.
573
574
575
While I agree that homegrown terrorism and the jihadist threat deserve continuing attention, a single-minded approach ignores all other threats.
576
577
578
579
We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.
580
Knowledge, may it be said, is higher than magic and is more to be sought. It is quite possible to see what is happening and yet not know what is forward, for while seeing is believing, it does not follow that either seeing or believing is knowing.
581
582

Think nothing done while aught remains to do.

It’s important to give it all you have while you have the chance.

I was away from the front lines for a while this spring, living with other troops, and considerable fighting took place while I was gone. When I got ready to return to my old friends at the front I wondered if I would sense any change in them.
591
While you are meditating, if your mind wanders, gently bring it back to the present moment.
592
One measure of your success will be the degree to which you build up others who work with you. While building up others, you will build up yourself.
593
There is no such thing as perpetual tranquillity of mind while we live here; because life itself is but motion, and can never be without desire, nor without fear, no more than without sense.
594
Talent is like a faucet, while it is open, one must write.
595

I get to play a great character while working with great actors and great directors on a great show.
597
While we may lose heart, we never have to lose hope.
598

600
While we celebrate our diversity, what surprises me time and time again as I travel around the constituency is that we are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us.
601
The worst thing about that kind of prejudice… is that while you feel hurt and angry and all the rest of it, it feeds you self-doubt. You start thinking, perhaps I am not good enough.
