64207. I started my career at the top and have been working my way downwards ever since. – Tom Glazer
64208. I published, privately, a collection of my serious poetry I had written over the years. I only published 50 copies, which I gave to friends, in a special deluxe edition. It was ridiculously expensive but I’m glad that I did it. – Tom Glazer
64209. I obtained a job at the Library of Congress. I loved books, so I felt at home. I was going to end up, I thought, majoring in English and teach at the college level. – Tom Glazer
64210. I met my wife in Washington, D.C. I was a senior in college. WW II was about to descend upon us. Jobs were starting to open up after a prolonged depression. – Tom Glazer
64211. I have a great interest in a number of things, perhaps too many. I admire people who seem to concentrate on only one fixed discipline to the exclusion of almost everything else. – Tom Glazer
64212. I ended up performing on a full time basis and I never got to Julliard at all. – Tom Glazer
64213. For hundreds of years people have talked about artists having inspiration, but often, some persons would say, write us a symphony or write us a song, on commission. The artists would come up with a masterpiece without waiting to have their muse inspire them. – Tom Glazer
64214. As I grew up, I was interested in other areas, too, especially literature. It became a major love of mine. Later, it became a difficult choice for me as to whether to major in music or literature. It wasn’t until my 30s that I began a profession in music. – Tom Glazer
64215. With sincere modesty, if there is such a thing, I have never thought of legacy at all. I am always grateful if people like what I have done. A legacy is something no one can forsee. – Tom Glazer
64216. Most performers don’t admit this, because it sounds negative and performers are not supposed to be negative, but when I was on the road, I was lonely. – Tom Glazer
64217. Our dreams are firsthand creations, rather than residues of waking life. We have the capacity for infinite creativity; at least while dreaming, we partake of the power of the Spirit, the infinite Godhead that creates the cosmos. – Jackie Gleason
64218. The second day of a diet is always easier than the first. By the second day you’re off it. – Jackie Gleason

64220. How sweet it is! – Jackie Gleason
64221. If you have it and you know you have it, then you have it. If you have it and don’t know you have it, you don’t have it. If you don’t have it but you think you have it, then you have it. – Jackie Gleason
64222. Thin people are beautiful, but fat people are adorable. – Jackie Gleason
64223. It’s better to star in Oshkosh than to starve on Broadway. – James Gleason
64224. Confidence, knowing for certain that the person making the call has your safety foremost in their mind. And knowing that the job you are about to take on is the right thing to do, that it makes sense. – Paul Gleason
64225. My biggest weakness is patience, wanting to see things happen too quickly or get changes in place right away. Not having the patience to let things develop. – Paul Gleason
64226. That ability to take in your surroundings and sort out the important stuff, to be aware, to be vigilant. Then take all that information, put it together, and see if it makes sense to you. – Paul Gleason
64227. The bottom line is that there is a lot more that could and should be done to help people with nutrition and exercise. – Parris Glendening
64228. Not since the Depression has the state been this dry, have our rivers been this low, our water table this low, and our reservoirs this low. – Parris Glendening
64229. Most redoubted lord and right sovereign cousin, may the Almighty Lord have you in his keeping. – Owen Glendower
64230. And in that I cannot send unto you all my businesses in writing, I despatch these present bearers fully informed in all things, to whom it may please you to give faith and credence in what they shall say unto you by word of mouth. – Owen Glendower
64231. Dread lord and cousin, may the almighty preserve your reverence and lordship in long life and good fortune. – Owen Glendower

64233. The most important thing we can do is inspire young minds and to advance the kind of science, math and technology education that will help youngsters take us to the next phase of space travel. – John Glenn
64234. There is still no cure for the common birthday. – John Glenn
64235. This is a day we have managed to avoid for a quarter of a century. – John Glenn
64236. Hearing is a form of touch. You feel it through your body, and sometimes it almost hits your face. – Evelyn Glennie
64237. I think Shakespeare had a lot to contribute with his understanding of the human condition. – Sharon Gless
64238. Something just happens when you read a part. You know, if you’d like to do it or if you don’t believe it. – Sharon Gless
64239. Network heads don’t seemed to be turned off by the men who get older. – Sharon Gless
64240. In my early days I was a contract player at Universal and I had a wonderful mentor named Monique James, who was head of talent there, and she used to drag me on sets to do parts. – Sharon Gless
64241. In fact I have nightmares about having children. I want to carry a baby and feel the life within me and in my dream, I do. But every time after it’s born, there’s this incredible fear, this pounding pulse of fear. It’s a real bad nightmare. – Sharon Gless
64242. I’ve come to learn that there is a real difference between men and women. It’s genetic. – Sharon Gless
64243. I’m not here to put down men, God love them and I’m married to one, but I do think they are more shallow. – Sharon Gless
64244. The way they were writing Christine as this older woman who got married, which she shouldn’t have. Obviously got divorced right away. Reached the glass ceiling in the police precinct. So there is a part of her that died because she knows she couldn’t go any farther. – Sharon Gless
64245. I think there are some people in life who are not marriage material and Chris is one of them. – Sharon Gless
64246. The whole tone now of TV is under 35 and directed toward males. – Sharon Gless
64247. I kind of resent this attitude of men that we somehow must always look good. – Sharon Gless
64248. I don’t believe there is any character that one can play for that long and not bring a piece of you to it. – Sharon Gless
64249. But it took me awhile to figure out Christine at this age, you know. – Sharon Gless
64250. But I’ve always believed that Christine Cagney shouldn’t be played past a certain age. – Sharon Gless
64251. But Angela had at least 30% more viewers on the same night at the same time. I mean, she wiped everybody out. But the sponsors don’t care when she had the most people. They only care about if there was only a handful of young viewers on the other one. – Sharon Gless
64252. And they were writing scripts where Christine had hit the glass ceiling. And I always thought Christine would never hit the glass ceiling. I thought her dreams would take her. Maybe her dreams wouldn’t take her where she wanted, but she still had her dreams. – Sharon Gless
64253. All men are difficult. – Sharon Gless
64254. I think, on the whole, men are much more shallow than women. – Sharon Gless
64255. Yeah, I’ve always been accused of having a sense of mischief and I’m very flattered that you say you can see it in the roles I play, because I think that’s important, even if I do play intense characters, like especially Christine Cagney. – Sharon Gless
64256. Studios were just run differently. There really was a head of a studio. There were people who loved their studios. Who worked for their studios and were loaned out to other people and everybody sort of got a piece. Well now there’s a handful now. – Sharon Gless
64257. You know what I would really like to do? I’d like to do a half hour drama with comedy in it. – Sharon Gless
64258. Yeah, even a black comedy. Where it’s a little eerie. I’d love to do that. But there are about three really fabulous ones on the air now and I don’t know if I can do any better than that. I’d like to sort of forge new ground. – Sharon Gless
64259. Women and minorities have excelled beautifully in comedy, but very few women are the lead in a drama. – Sharon Gless
64260. Well what do you do with a character like Christine Cagney and you tell her she can’t have things? – Sharon Gless
64261. They say that Madison Avenue will only pay high dollars in advertising if they get the 18-35 age range. – Sharon Gless
64262. There’s no praise or acknowledgment paid to women who raise the babies. – Sharon Gless
64263. There are only about three really, really good sitcoms on the air. – Sharon Gless
64264. If China wants to be a constructive, active player in the world economy, it’s got to respect intellectual property rights or it makes it pretty impossible to do business with them. – Dan Glickman
64265. I’m someone who believes the only way to see a movie is in a big theater, on a big screen, with a big bag of popcorn. – Dan Glickman
64266. There’s a tremendous intellectual fervor among independent filmmakers, and that has to be cultivated. – Dan Glickman
64267. The success of the movie industry comes from the story. And the story comes from somebody putting something down on paper. – Dan Glickman
64268. The only way to see a movie is in a big theater, on a big screen, with a big bag of popcorn. – Dan Glickman
64269. The movie industry is committed to working with the technology sector to find innovative new ways to deliver entertainment to consumers. – Dan Glickman
64270. The creative works of the entertainment industry belong to the millions of people who make them and are not for others to steal or unlawfully distribute. – Dan Glickman
64271. Technology has not only changed the way people are able to view movies, it has changed the way our industry produces and advertises movies. – Dan Glickman
64272. Meat and poultry is safe. It’s safer than it’s probably ever been. – Dan Glickman
64273. Where there is a problem, the risks to the public are greater than they’ve ever been before. – Dan Glickman
64274. I don’t think we can go back to the old days. But I think that what the government needs to do is it needs to make sure that the pricing is fair, that you don’t have monopolies out there, so that people don’t have a chance to compete fairly. – Dan Glickman
64275. A nation creates music – the composer only arranges it. – Mikhail Glinka
64276. I have done my time living on the run. I’m British and I want to come home. – Gary Glitter
64277. The United States has it’s own propaganda, but it’s very effective because people don’t realize that it’s propaganda. And it’s subtle, but it’s actually a much stronger propaganda machine than the Nazis had but it’s funded in a different way. – Crispin Glover
64278. Realism is always subjective in film. There’s no such thing as cinema verite. – Crispin Glover
64279. People watch movies – and it’s vague ideas, it’s vague notions, but people pick up on these things, that they are supposed to think certain ways or that they’re not supposed to think, basically, and they don’t. – Crispin Glover
64280. I do like things that are not necessarily a reflection of what is considered the right thing by this culture. Somehow, promoting that status quo I find uninteresting. – Crispin Glover
64281. But there’s a difference between having artistic interests and being psychotic. That’s more than a fine line of differentiation, and I do see that a bit too much. – Crispin Glover
64282. Eccentric doesn’t bother me. ‘Eccentric’ being a poetic interpretation of a mathematical term meaning something that doesn’t follow the lines – that’s okay. – Crispin Glover
64283. Well I don’t know because I don’t have a real relationship with the industry. – Danny Glover
64284. This country has always been run by elite, and it’s an elitist democracy. And that’s not a radical concept. It’s elitist democracy. When people talk about democracy, they don’t talk – really talk about participatory democracy, until the point that we get us at Election Day. – Danny Glover
64285. Every day of my life I walk with the idea that I am black, no matter how successful I am. And our success is tempered by that; you’re successful in this way given the fact you are black, and most blacks don’t get to that point. – Danny Glover
64286. We have to be that wedge that drives the question and asks the hard questions. – Danny Glover
64287. What happened to Haiti is a threat that could happen anywhere in the Caribbean to these island nations, you know, because of global warming, because of climate change and all this. – Danny Glover
64288. You know, we do not want the militarization of Haiti. We do not see a Haitian as a protectorate where it relinquishes its own sovereignty. – Danny Glover
64289. The progressive movement against the war of occupation in Iraq is a reason for hope, as is resistance to free trade agreements in Latin America. Those are moments that we have to celebrate: that people still find the resolve and energy to resist. – Danny Glover
64290. But I think it’s very key that there’s a plan for Haiti. And we have to begin to – as progressives and people who are concerned about Haiti and have been concerned about Haiti, we have to begin to build some sort of consensus, a movement around the Haiti that the Haitians envision. – Danny Glover
64291. But rarely have I made choices that made me feel I was really compromising what I believe. – Danny Glover
64292. Every day of my life I walk with the idea I am black no matter how successful I am. – Danny Glover
64293. In 1967, the students at San Francisco State invited the poet Amiri Baraka to the campus for a semester. He attracted other influential black writers such as Sonia Sanchez, Ed Bullins, Eldridge Cleaver. What emerged was something we called the community communications program. That’s how I got involved; I got involved in a little play. – Danny Glover
64294. Freedom Summer, the massive voter education project in Mississippi, was 1964. I graduated from high school in 1965. So becoming active was almost a rite of passage. – Danny Glover
64295. Since 1957, black people have experienced double-digit unemployment – in good times and bad times. Look at the population of African Americans in prison. They represent more than half the population of prisoners in the country, 55 percent of those on death row. – Danny Glover
64296. One of the main purveyors of violence in this world has been this country. – Danny Glover
64297. Some of these things I saw in foreign films – African films, Cuban films – long before I decided to really go on this course as an actor. I started to think about what values I saw in those films that I wanted to bring to my projects. – Danny Glover
64298. When you’ve moved past a point where you’re just scrambling for jobs, you think about the things that you want to do. And the things that you want to do are governed by what you’ve seen, what you choose to embrace. – Danny Glover
64299. It’s also important for those who promote those issues within the white community – the somewhat privileged community – to talk about issues affecting people of color. – Danny Glover
64300. If we talk about the environment, for example, we have to talk about environmental racism – about the fact that kids in South Central Los Angeles have a third of the lung capacity of kids in Santa Monica. – Danny Glover
64301. If we talk about literacy, we have to talk about how to enhance our children’s mastery over the tools needed to live intelligent, creative, and involved lives. – Danny Glover
64302. I try to find hope in struggle and resistance in small places as much as I can. – Danny Glover
64303. I’ve been a Goodwill Ambassador for the UNICEF and the UNICEF family for more than twelve years. – Danny Glover
64304. I’ve always been able to make choices that don’t embarrass me. – Danny Glover
64305. I’m not so vain as to believe that my involvement changes anything whatsoever. – Danny Glover
64306. I’m a child of the Civil Rights Movement. – Danny Glover
64307. I was able to do To Sleep with Anger, a very powerful film about African Americans, their spirituality, and the things that happened within a small community and a family. – Danny Glover
64308. I was able to do The Saint of Fort Washington, on the relationship between two homeless men. – Danny Glover
64309. If we look at Houston, which is a very environmentally toxic place, we find that it has one of the highest levels of young men going to prison and also among the highest levels of illiteracy in the country. – Danny Glover
64310. I never thought about being an actor. – Danny Glover
64311. New Orleans is a city whose basic industry is the service industry. That’s why it makes its money. That’s – it brings people to the city. People come to the city and experience the wonders of this extraordinary city and everything else. The question is that, how do we create jobs which are the jobs that have pay, that – living wages? – Danny Glover
64312. It is difficult to determine the cause of grass fires. There is usually nothing left behind when we get there, like a cigarette or a gas can, for us to determine what started it. – John Glover
64313. Luck has had a great deal to do with my career. – John Glover
64314. Putting your hands in the earth is very grounding, if you’ll excuse the pun. – John Glover
64315. There are parts of me that I keep secret even from myself. I have demons and I’d love to be able to healthily look at the demons and still be a wonderful actor and not feel I need them to create. – John Glover
64316. There’s more depth to Lionel. What I am finding so interesting about playing him is there’s all these different layers. I prefer playing Lionel because he’s a human being. – John Glover
64317. When I first arrived in Los Angeles I became a little bogged down in the whole success thing. Now I’m at a place in my life and career where I just want to work. It’s what I do and it makes me very happy. – John Glover
64318. I want to keep – this seems so corny – I want to keep growing as an artist. – John Glover
64319. Welding torches, cutting torches and any activity producing a flame outside is prohibited. Any open flame is discouraged. – John Glover
64320. I was terrified of being a teacher. To stand in front of a classroom, the responsibility is boggling. Imagine! Standing in front of people! – John Glover
64321. I think we all have madness in us, it’s just that I’ve realized mine and found a way to let it out. – John Glover
64322. I guess that’s a flaw in my career, that I like to work too much. – John Glover
64323. I graduated from high school in ’62 and I didn’t know any people who were gay. I’m sure there were people, but I didn’t know any. For years and years, I guess, I was very uptight about being a gay actor. I thought it would make me less hirable. – John Glover
64324. Brimstone was great. That was another occasion when they called me in to do the pilot and it turned into a regular job, which made me quite happy. It was another really good experience and we were all so surprised when they pulled the plug on it. – John Glover
64325. An artist can go paint, and a writer can go write, but an actor needs to get hired, needs somebody to say, ‘Here, come and do this,’ That’s the hard part. – John Glover
64326. I wonder why I keep playing such intelligent people? – John Glover
64327. In open range fires it is about picking a spot and hoping it is the right location. At the head of the fire you have to worry about wind and humidity and a number of other factors. – John Glover
64328. I’m a Bristol person too, I lived in Bristol during the war. – Julian Glover
64329. Star Wars was not a very big part but I enjoyed doing it and I get more fan mail for that than anything else I’ve ever done. It’s quite extraordinary, it comes in every day, unbelievable. – Julian Glover
64330. One does not study for a goal. The goal is a mere accident. – Alma Gluck
64331. We are rich in the quantity of songs rather than in the quality. The singer has to go through hundreds of compositions before he finds one that really says something. – Alma Gluck
64332. The student who deceives himself into thinking that he is giving his life like an ascetic in the spirit of sacrifice for art, is the victim of a deplorable species of egotism. – Alma Gluck
64333. Acquiring a repertoire in these days, when the vocal literature is so immense, so overwhelming, that the student with sense will devote all his energies to work and not imagine himself a martyr to art. – Alma Gluck
64334. The sincerity of the art worker must permeate the song as naturally as the green leaves break through the dead branches in springtime. – Alma Gluck
64335. The real artist has no idea that he is sacrificing himself for art. He does what he does for one reason and one reason only-he can’t help doing it. – Alma Gluck
64336. Vocal study before age 20 is likely to be injurious, though some survive it in the hands of very careful and understanding teachers. – Alma Gluck
64337. Just as the bird sings or the butterfly soars, because it is his natural characteristic, so the artist works. – Alma Gluck
64338. Inspired by the purse rather than the soul, the mercenary side fairly screams in many of the works put out by every day American publishers. – Alma Gluck
64339. In the piano, one has the instrument complete before he begins; but in the case of the voice, the instrument has to be developed by study. – Alma Gluck
64340. French is, in many ways, more difficult for an English-speaking person to sing. It is so full of complex and trying vowels. It requires the utmost subtlety. – Alma Gluck
64341. A student will send me an urgent appeal to hear her, saying she is poor and wants my advice as to whether it is worth while to continue her studies. I invariably refuse such requests. – Alma Gluck
64342. When the student has her voice under complete control, it is safe to take up the lyric repertoire of Mendelssohn, Old English Songs, etc. How simple and charming they are! – Alma Gluck
64343. If the student could give up her work on my advice, she had better give it up without it. One does not study for a goal. The goal is a mere accident. – Alma Gluck
64344. A science is any discipline in which the fool of this generation can go beyond the point reached by the genius of the last generation. – Max Gluckman
64345. All the legislation in the world will not abolish kissing. – Elinor Glyn
64346. American husbands are the best in the world; no other husbands are so generous to their wives, or can be so easily divorced. – Elinor Glyn
64347. Everything that I write will be signed with my name. – Elinor Glyn
64348. I have wondered sometimes if there are not perhaps some disadvantages in having really blue blood in one’s veins, like grandmamma and me. – Elinor Glyn
64349. They’re not posing as being Jesus Christ all the time. – Jim Goad
64350. Hatred is the air I breathe. It permeates every cell in my body. – Jim Goad
64351. My hatred is diamond-hard. – Jim Goad
64352. My hatred is a thousand times more powerful than all your good intentions. – Jim Goad
64353. My uncle was the town drunk – and we lived in Chicago. – George Gobel
64354. If you build a better mousetrap, you will catch better mice. – George Gobel
64355. Did you ever get the feeling that the world was a tuxedo and you were a pair of brown shoes? – George Gobel
64356. College is a place to keep warm between high school and an early marriage. – George Gobel
64357. I pity the French Cinema because it has no money. I pity the American Cinema because it has no ideas. – Jean-Luc Godard
64358. To me style is just the outside of content, and content the inside of style, like the outside and the inside of the human body. Both go together, they can’t be separated. – Jean-Luc Godard
64359. To be or not to be. That’s not really a question. – Jean-Luc Godard
64360. The truth is that there is no terror untempered by some great moral idea. – Jean-Luc Godard
64361. One of the most striking signs of the decay of art is when we see its separate forms jumbled together. – Jean-Luc Godard
64362. Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion. – Jean-Luc Godard
64363. I don’t think you should feel about a film. You should feel about a woman, not a movie. You can’t kiss a movie. – Jean-Luc Godard
64364. Cinema is the most beautiful fraud in the world. – Jean-Luc Godard
64365. A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end… but not necessarily in that order. – Jean-Luc Godard
64366. All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl. – Jean-Luc Godard
64367. Photography is truth. The cinema is truth twenty-four times per second. – Jean-Luc Godard
64368. Lost In Space is played on television somewhere in the world every day. It’s been a cult show. – Mark Goddard
64369. Trying to give back a little bit is important. – Mark Goddard
64370. They sent me the script, asking me to play the part of a general. I have never played the part of an authority figure. I’ve never thought of myself that way. I was uncomfortable with it, but I worked at it and knew I had a guttural voice for a general. – Mark Goddard
64371. These are extremely talented actors who are all putting their talents into the Lost in Space movie. – Mark Goddard
64372. There’s a certain way you stand to give yourself authority, which gives you the texture for the part. I chose that my character hadn’t been married, he’d worked his way up the chain of command. For a small cameo role, I gave it a lot of thought. – Mark Goddard
64373. The question I always get is, Why didn’t you throw Dr. Smith off the Jupiter? I get that all the time. – Mark Goddard
64374. The only person who had any control was Jonathan Harris. His character was so flamboyant that he was able to make things happen. My character was fairly one-dimensional, so I had my relationship with Dr. Smith and with the family. – Mark Goddard
64375. With the Hubble telescope and all the other things that are out there, I believe something would have come through. Today, I really believe we are unique. – Mark Goddard
64376. People give me things at shows-the Robot from Japan. What I would treasure the most is a little doll of the general from the movie-and if they don’t make it, I’ll make my own and bring it to shows and sign it. – Mark Goddard
64377. One thing that is almost always said to me is, I grew up with you. They are meeting me and feel that they actually grew up with me. I was with them during their play hours and thinking hours. I was a part of their childhoods. That’s one of the most amazing things. – Mark Goddard
64378. Life is about family and technology. – Mark Goddard
64379. Let the machine take care of the machines, and I’ll go spend more time with my family, or golf. – Mark Goddard
64380. It’s amazing that this is all happening to Lost in Space. – Mark Goddard
64381. In our first season we had a 22 rating. Today Seinfeld, a hit show, gets a 15. Lost in Space actually had a bigger audience than Star Trek got at that time. – Mark Goddard
64382. I’m not a great science fiction fan myself. I probably feel that way about Westerns. Like I used to play Cowboys and Indians, they can act out Will and the Robot. – Mark Goddard
64383. I would have liked it to have stayed serious and have the adventures of a family lost in space. This isn’t to take anything away from Jonathan and the Robot. I watch his performance today and he still makes me laugh. – Mark Goddard
64384. I was supposed to have a relationship with Judy, but that never happened. Actors in series didn’t have the control that they have today over their jobs. – Mark Goddard
64385. The kids like to get pictures of me for their parents. They know how proud I am of them-they have a lot more to worry about than my stardom. They are trying to make good choices for their own lives, but this gives them a little fun. They are part of my family. – Mark Goddard
64386. Lost In Space fans are going to get organized, because we’ll see them showing up in all the theatres. – Mark Goddard
64387. I couldn’t have left my career as an actor on a better note than to have done a cameo in the Lost In Space movie. Doing this part is the highlight of my career. What a way to leave the profession! – Mark Goddard
64388. I kind of fell into acting.I was very lucky. – Mark Goddard
64389. Demi Moore is a terrific woman and a hell of an actress. – Mark Goddard
64390. Getting stopped for drunk driving in those days might mean that your entire career was over then. Not today. – Mark Goddard
64391. I appeared on a show with Jonathan Harris on it-the Bill Dana show-even before Lost In Space. Someone gave me a tape of it in the past year, but in all these years we hadn’t remembered. – Mark Goddard
64392. I hope that they enjoy the movie. Don’t be critical. Don’t expect to get the same feelings you got when you watched the series when you were 10 years old. Let your kids see it and experience it on their own. – Mark Goddard
64393. I don’t have anything from the television series. I treasure the videotapes from Columbia House. – Mark Goddard
64394. I’ve had a lot of cognitive behavioural therapy, and am having a family now. – Trisha Goddard
64395. Because my father was a psychiatric nurse, I know my way around the system. – Trisha Goddard
64396. Somebody like me wouldn’t have gone on to the Trisha show because I already had a public profile. – Trisha Goddard
64397. Psychiatrists always say, Oh, we’re very professional. I use exercise as my medication. – Trisha Goddard
64398. Most of my peers in television seem to be from a different planet. I don’t hang out with any of them. – Trisha Goddard
64399. I speak to people who have been through so much more. – Trisha Goddard
64400. It is ridiculous that somebody picks up the phone and calls somebody they see on television. Why don’t they call somebody in their area? Don’t they know about that? – Trisha Goddard
64401. Daddy loves you, but he smacks you, and he can shout at you and smash things, but Daddy still loves you. So when you get into a relationship with someone who does all of that, why would it be unusual? – Trisha Goddard
64402. If you are in the job for glamour, you’re in for the shock of your life. The media is a huge shark pool. – Trisha Goddard
64403. It was only literally hours after the wedding when he felt he didn’t have to keep up the facade. – Trisha Goddard
64404. I’ll get up in the morning while they’ve all got hangovers and run my 5 miles. But the women who do run are usually 10 years younger than me and they’re really obsessed about running. That’s all they do. They’re really boring. – Trisha Goddard
64405. I’ll get into a pattern where I start sleeping only between 12 and 3.30, and go for weeks like that. – Trisha Goddard
64406. I work very hard to keep on an even keel as far as alcohol is concerned. – Trisha Goddard
64407. I suppose in London they all drink from the same watering holes. – Trisha Goddard
64408. I suggest that instead of criticising us, the establishment has a bloody good look at itself. – Trisha Goddard
64409. I know I can get to the stage where I’m drinking a lot. I tend to be rotten and groggy all day and hanging out for the next drink and five o’clock, ping! I have to just stop. – Trisha Goddard
64410. I am a smiling depressive. – Trisha Goddard
64411. I find myself thinking: Oh God, now what? I always have to have a new plan, otherwise I get very, very bored. – Trisha Goddard
64412. I don’t do game shows. – Trisha Goddard
64413. I can be horrifically single-minded. – Trisha Goddard
64414. If you go to most third world countries, the older woman dispenses advice to the arguing couple while other members of the family, or even the village, sit around and listen. It is no big deal. – Trisha Goddard
64415. I am an addictive personality. – Trisha Goddard
64416. I had this stereotypical view that black people apart from me probably threw stones and lived in huts. – Trisha Goddard
64417. Why don’t you compare me to Sally Jessy Raphael? – Trisha Goddard
64418. There is a learning quality in all of our shows. – Trisha Goddard
64419. We see the people that have got stars in their eyes, but if you’ve really got what it takes, you can get from, say the beginnings, to the top in about five years. – Trisha Goddard
64420. If books were Persian carpets, one would not look only at the outer side. because it is the stitch that makes a carpet wear, gives it its life and bloom. – Rumer Godden
64421. The motto was “Pax,” but the word was set in a circle of thorns. – Rumer Godden
64422. The stitch of a book is its words. – Rumer Godden
64423. For a dyed-in-the-wool author, nothing is as dead as a book once it is written. She is rather like a cat whose kittens have grown up. – Rumer Godden
64424. You know, it sounds corny, but I believe in myself. And I work hard. – Arthur Godfrey
64425. The biggest deal for me was that all 24 winners are placed on the Billboard CD of the Year, which went out to 500 of the biggest Music Reps in the business, from radio and press to management and booking. – Arthur Godfrey
64426. You get a letter from her agency embracing you into the family that says, ‘It is our goal now to help you achieve your dream of being a songwriter, in John’s memory.’ – Arthur Godfrey
64427. Now I’m fortunate to have a good band in CA, and play many solo gigs as well. My point is that I stopped playing in bands and played solo for four years, to get back into the groove and pulse of writing and singing and who I am on stage. – Arthur Godfrey
64428. You know, if you don’t do nothin, you don’t do nothin. – Arthur Godfrey
64429. I liked the way they treated the first, second, and third place finishers equally. It was an amazing year. I only entered two song contests this year; I won one and placed second in the other. And I entered each of them a day or two before the deadline. – Arthur Godfrey
64430. As corny as it may sound, my true goal was to crack the Americana market. – Arthur Godfrey
64431. He asked if I was a songwriter, and I said yeah, that I was in town because I’d won this contest. He said, okay, then he was gonna play me his hit, and started singing ‘When it’s time to relax, one beer stands clear… ‘ – Arthur Godfrey
64432. I know how I like to be treated, so I always start by saying, ‘Could you give me a moment of your time, I know you’re very busy,’ and usually, they will. – Arthur Godfrey
64433. If I go to a seminar and someone like you or someone like him is talking, I’m never part of the group that rushes him directly afterward. I always wait in the back corner with my head down until everyone is gone, and then I go up and do my thing. – Arthur Godfrey
64434. I really believe in myself. I’m the hardest worker I know, and one of the best songwriters. There’s a craft to it, and it takes a long time to hone it, and I work really hard at it. – Arthur Godfrey
64435. I’d just hit the Billboard thing, and I had a good feeling. About a month ago, I received a call that said I was in the running, that I’d made the final 25. So I just wanted to place. – Arthur Godfrey
64436. I’m proud to pay taxes in the United States; the only thing is, I could be just as proud for half the money. – Arthur Godfrey
64437. I’ve been playing music all my life, from being a choir soloist at Symphony Hall as a youngster to playing in bands through high school and college at Kent State. Went in the service at 17, out before I was 21. – Arthur Godfrey
64438. It’s not an act, it’s just my way. – Arthur Godfrey
64439. I explained to the lady my love for John and his work, and she made it possible for me to purchase one of the 24 proofs, the one for ‘I’m So Tired,’ which I have on my piano at home. – Arthur Godfrey
64440. Married and divorced, three beautiful daughters, two in college. The other one is 16, lives with her mom. I’m 46, I’ve worked for the Post Office for 18 years, seven facilities in three states. – Arthur Godfrey
64441. Do you know what people want more than anything? They want to be missed. They want to be missed the day they don’t show up. They want to be missed when they’re gone. – Seth Godin
64442. What tribes are, is a very simple concept that goes back 50 million years. It’s about leading and connecting people and ideas. And it’s something that people have wanted forever. – Seth Godin
64443. Being a leader gives you charisma. If you look and study the leaders who have succeeded, that’s where charisma comes from, from the leading. – Seth Godin
64444. And it turns out that tribes, not money, not factories, that can change our world, that can change politics, that can align large numbers of people. Not because you force them to do something against their will. But because they wanted to connect. – Seth Godin
64445. The internet was supposed to homogenize everyone by connecting us all. Instead what it’s allowed is silos of interest. – Seth Godin
64446. It was 1966 by the time I started taking pictures seriously and books, newspapers and magazines of the time were full of great pictures that helped to inspire me. – Fay Godwin
64447. You can’t expect to take a definitive image in half an hour. It takes days, often years. – Fay Godwin
64448. What I loathe is the multi-national conglomerates who must take responsibility for the degradation and pollution of so much of our landscape with their factory farming and greed. – Fay Godwin
64449. The viewer must bring their own view to a photograph. – Fay Godwin
64450. Look at lots of exhibitions and books, and don’t get hung up on cameras and technical things. Photography is about images. – Fay Godwin
64451. Maybe black and white is the best medium for landscapes, I don’t know. – Fay Godwin
64452. I have always been a very keen walker, though, and I often took a camera with me on my walks. – Fay Godwin
64453. I don’t get wrapped up in technique and the like. – Fay Godwin
64454. I hardly teach. It’s more like a gathering of minds looking at one subject and learning from each other. I enjoy the process. – Fay Godwin
64455. I have always loved reading, so was interested in the literary world, and took many literary portraits. – Fay Godwin
64456. I like photographs which leave something to the imagination. – Fay Godwin
64457. And in fact I don’t believe there is such a thing as a definitive picture of something. The land is a living, breathing thing and light changes its character every second of every day. That’s why I love it so much. – Fay Godwin
64458. I’m not faithful to one particular medium, and it’s what I try to teach to people who work with me. – Fay Godwin
64459. After Land I wanted to continue exploring the theme but I needed a new challenge so turned to colour. I explored Bradford and produced a series of urban landscapes that I liked, but because Land had made such an impact on the general public my colour work wasn’t reviewed. – Fay Godwin
64460. Born Berlin 1931, Germany, father a British diplomat, mother an American artist. Educated at various schools all over the world. 1958 Settled down to live in London. 1966 Became interested in photography through photographing my young children. No formal training. – Fay Godwin
64461. But I was, and still am, an avid reader and so when I first started I chose to photograph many of the great writers in this country to try and earn a living. – Fay Godwin
64462. I’ve been working with the land for most of my life; walking it and photographing it. And I love it to bits. – Fay Godwin
64463. I had been working in colour for ten years or so and looked at digital and liked the possibilities it gave me. – Fay Godwin
64464. None of us suddenly becomes something overnight. The preparations have been in the making for lifetime. – Gail Godwin
64465. One is taught by experience to put a premium on those few people who can appreciate you for what you are. – Gail Godwin
64466. The act of longing for something will always be more intense than the requiting of it. – Gail Godwin
64467. Dreams say what they mean, but they don’t say it in daytime language. – Gail Godwin
64468. Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths pure theatre. – Gail Godwin
64469. The race of children possesses magically sagacious powers. – Gail Godwin
64470. It’s very important to know that we packed it right because it is a safety issue for coming home. – Linda M. Godwin
64471. A lot of these things will fly in later forms on the space station themselves, or a later form of that research will, once they kind of find out some of the basics from flying it on shuttle. – Linda M. Godwin
64472. Although I know a lot of the previous shuttle flights, in theory, had their tasks laid out; but there were still some changes that came along for them. – Linda M. Godwin
64473. As always, we prepare for all sorts of contingencies. And the first few days of the flight up until docking on Day 3 are all spent really in the rendezvous because we launch at a time that puts us in an optimal position to catch up to station. – Linda M. Godwin
64474. I did grow up with a really big interest in math and science; I liked it. – Linda M. Godwin
64475. I’ll be the person using the shuttle robotic arm. – Linda M. Godwin
64476. It definitely helps to have been through the arm training flow before and to have used the arm on orbit, and it also gives me the confidence to know that our training facilities are really good, that when you get up there, you feel like you’ve been there. – Linda M. Godwin
64477. It is a very busy mission: every day has some major goals that we have to get through, but my experience before has been that at least in the evening, you kind of take a deep breath and look around where you are and have some downtime. – Linda M. Godwin
64478. It’s really kind of a challenge to keep coordinated with the two station crews that we’ll be interacting with. And of course one of them launched quite some time before our mission. – Linda M. Godwin
64479. I grew up watching a lot of the coverage of the early U.S. space program, all the way back starting with Mercury and then through Gemini and Apollo and of course going to the moon as the main part of the Apollo program. – Linda M. Godwin
64480. Our shuttle crew is four people, because we’re going to transfer a crew up to station, so all the jobs are divided between four people rather than five or six people. So it’s been busy. – Linda M. Godwin
64481. The training comes to us with the benefit of what has gone before. – Linda M. Godwin
64482. There’s a lot of interest from the medical community on how things develop in microgravity, and the hope, later, that is expected to apply to what the changes are in humans as well. – Linda M. Godwin
64483. UF is Utilization Flight. That got put in the manifest quite some time ago. – Linda M. Godwin
64484. We didn’t use the shuttle robot arm before, so this has been a training flow to get ready for that. – Linda M. Godwin
64485. We launch when we’re kind of in the same orbit that they are in terms of being matched up in inclination in space, and we’re just in a little different altitude. – Linda M. Godwin
64486. We still have a lot of international partner modules that need to get up there to make it truly the international structure that it will be, and that’s highly important; we need to get to where the crew size is bigger. – Linda M. Godwin
64487. We’re on the same radius from the Earth, and then we start to swing around to where we’re ahead of them on the velocity vector, so we come in relative to the station from this forward velocity position and dock on to the forward end of the Lab. – Linda M. Godwin
64488. We’re taking up some science experiments, some crystal growth things, we have a refrigerator that carries up some samples, new samples that go into the station, we bring the old ones home; we have a lot of clothing, we have a lot of food-U.S. and Russian food. – Linda M. Godwin
64489. It’s really a good feeling to know that we put this up there, that it’s working, that all these people’s plans that worked so hard came together and things fit and we’ve got a real space station. – Linda M. Godwin
64490. In the Astronaut Office we’re never totally out of training, we always keep our hand in it. But after five years, things have changed and so it’s been good to get back into the flow and relearn a lot of things. – Linda M. Godwin
64491. He that loves reading has everything within his reach. – William Godwin
64492. The diligent scholar is he that loves himself, and desires to have reason to applaud and love himself. – William Godwin
64493. The execution of any thing considerable implies in the first place previous persevering meditation. – William Godwin
64494. The great model of the affection of love in human beings is the sentiment which subsists between parents and children. – William Godwin
64495. Above all we should not forget that government is an evil, a usurpation upon the private judgement and individual conscience of mankind. – William Godwin
64496. As the true object of education is not to render the pupil the mere copy of his preceptor, it is rather to be rejoiced in, than lamented, that various reading should lead him into new trains of thinking. – William Godwin
64497. But the watchful care of the parent is endless. The youth is never free from the danger of grating interference. – William Godwin
64498. Every man has a certain sphere of discretion which he has a right to expect shall not be infringed by his neighbours. This right flows from the very nature of man. – William Godwin
64499. Everything understood by the term co-operation is in some sense an evil. – William Godwin
64500. God himself has no right to be a tyrant. – William Godwin
64501. Study with desire is real activity; without desire it is but the semblance and mockery of activity. – William Godwin

64503. Revolutions are the produce of passion, not of sober and tranquil reason. – William Godwin
64504. If a thing be really good, it can be shown to be such. – William Godwin
64505. If he who employs coercion against me could mould me to his purposes by argument, no doubt he would. He pretends to punish me because his argument is strong; but he really punishes me because his argument is weak. – William Godwin
64506. In cases where every thing is understood, and measured, and reduced to rule, love is out of the question. – William Godwin

64510. Let us not, in the eagerness of our haste to educate, forget all the ends of education. – William Godwin
64511. Make men wise, and by that very operation you make them free. Civil liberty follows as a consequence of this; no usurped power can stand against the artillery of opinion. – William Godwin

64513. My thoughts will be taken up with the future or the past, with what is to come or what has been. Of the present there is necessarily no image. – William Godwin
64514. One of the prerogatives by which man is eminently distinguished from all other living beings inhabiting this globe of earth, consists in the gift of reason. – William Godwin
64515. Government will not fail to employ education, to strengthen its hands, and perpetuate its institutions. – William Godwin
64516. The real or supposed rights of man are of two kinds, active and passive; the right in certain cases to do as we list; and the right we possess to the forbearance or assistance of other men. – William Godwin
64517. We cannot perform our tasks to the best of our power, unless we think well of our own capacity. – William Godwin

64520. They held it their duty to live but for their country. – William Godwin
64521. There must be room for the imagination to exercise its powers; we must conceive and apprehend a thousand things which we do not actually witness. – William Godwin
64522. The cause of justice is the cause of humanity. Its advocates should overflow with universal good will. We should love this cause, for it conduces to the general happiness of mankind. – William Godwin
64523. There can be no passion, and by consequence no love, where there is not imagination. – William Godwin
64524. To him it is an ocean, unfathomable, and without a shore. – William Godwin

64526. The philosophy of the wisest man that ever existed, is mainly derived from the act of introspection. – William Godwin

64530. The proper method for hastening the decay of error is by teaching every man to think for himself. – William Godwin

64534. Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play. – Joseph Goebbels

64536. Shoot first and ask questions later, and don’t worry, no matter what happens, I will protect you. – Hermann Goering
