Famous Quotes & Sayings

Julianne Moore

When I started out, the most terrifying thing was when I had to be very, very emotional in front of lots of people. Now I've kind of learned that it is very important to keep talking all day, keep making jokes, and be connected with people, and be present. It's very important for me to be absolutely present in order to be emotional. I learned that is sort of the way I need to be.

Juan Gris

I prefer the emotion that corrects the rule.

K. D. Lang

K. D. Lang

Joyce Meyer

You may get an emotional thrill when you first buy something, but emotions are fickle. You buy that one thing you think will complete your happiness, but after awhile the feeling goes away and you have to go to the next thing. You just keep going from purchase to purchase looking for the one thing that will finally satisfy. But stuff can't satisfy.

Nicole Kidman

You look at somebody's work as an actor and you can see their emotional life being fed into it and you can kind of feel them through it.

Nicole Kidman

I do research. I do emotional sort of Method work. Somehow it’s a huge mishmash of things that becomes my own acting process and my own way of navigating through something. But ultimately the desire is to be honest, and for that truth to bleed through into your work and onto the screen.

Nicholas Lemann

I am not against standardized tests. There are tests and tests and tests, and, to simplify, the ones I favor are criterion-referenced tests of skills, aligned with the curriculum. Social and emotional skills are important but skills are too. I find it heartbreaking that this is so often seen as an either-or choice. To get to the richness of studying literature, for example, you must first be an adept and confident reader. Whether you are is something a good test can measure.

The breath is seen to be the key between the emotional state, the mental state and physical state. It is perhaps the most important tool, and it's one whose importance is underestimated in the West.

Paul Auster

The things we remember are often things that have great emotional importance, and so they have a lasting effect.

Judd Apatow

I used to scream at everybody at the beginning of my career. I'd get really emotional. I'd project all my issues about my parents and safety onto the executives, so every conversation where they gave a note was life or death and you don't love me.

Judd Apatow

In terms of the emotional underpinning, if you've been in relationships, you understand what's happening.

Niall Ferguson

If the financial system has a defect, it is that it reflects and magnifies what we human beings are like.
