age calm certain emotional experience feels low passing people preference sixty washington
Being sixty in Washington sometimes feels like having had one year's experience sixty times. However, age can confer a certain calm about the passing circus, a preference for understatement and for people with low emotional metabolisms.
emotional years roles
[A] re-elected McConnell, with a Republican majority, would, he says, emulate his model of majority leadership - the 16 years under a Democrat, Montana'€™s Mike Mansfield. He, like McConnell, had a low emotional metabolism but a subtle sense of the Senate's singular role in the nation's constitutional equilibrium.

It was a pretty heavy emotional burden to carry before the game. Everyone seemed to sense that this was a game we had to have.

I am told that it was an emotional occasion. Prayers were said at the time, and the feeding tube was disconnected. Mr. Schiavo currently is with his wife, at her bedside.
cop delicate direct emotional executive handle head human man ought poem produce sensitive traffic trying values vast
To produce and direct a movie today, a man really ought to have two heads. It is like trying to be a traffic cop and write a poem at the same time. You need an executive head to handle all the vast paraphernalia of movie-making. You need another, more sensitive head to get the delicate human emotional values you are trying to put on film.
best crowd emotional fans fired front fun great kept lose played saying win wins
It was such an emotional win for us, and we kept saying that there was no way we could lose the game. Our fans fired us up too. It was the best crowd I've ever played in front of at Pauley. It was such a great experience, and we had fun more than anything. Wins like this are what we play for.

close dreams emotional filmmakers inspired les material reflect versa vice
I was very inspired by Les Blank's film 'Burden of Dreams.' I think what's unique about his film and the two I've made is that they're close examinations of filmmakers and how their own emotional experiences reflect in the material they're rendering, and vice versa - how that material sometimes colors their own lives.

We came out to win, and knew that we were going to battle back and win Game 4 and Game 5. We were all fired up, and the emotional level of wanting it more allowed us to come out on top.
aggressive emotional enjoys good hard highs lows verbal
He's aggressive but he's just kind of an even-keeled guy. He doesn't get emotional about things. I think he enjoys the competition, but he's not a verbal guy. His highs and lows are hard to see because he's so even-keeled, which can be good at times.
real drama emotional
The real challenge in acting is in comedy. It's easier to get that gasp in a drama. Not easy, because you still have to find that emotional pitch. And when you do something in drama and you hear that sob from the audience it's so fulfilling. But as a comic actor, when the laugh is supposed to come and you punch in that line and nothing happens it is dreadful. It's horrific and you feel like dying right there.
golf emotional two
Golf cannot be played in anger, or in any mood of emotiional excess. Half the golf balls struck by amateurs are hit if not in rage surely in bewilderment, or gloom, or in cynicism, or even hysterically - all of those emotional excesses must be contained by the professional. Which is why balance is one of the essential ingredients of golf. Professionals invariably trudge phlegmatically around the course - whatever emotions are seething within - with the grim yet placid and bored look of cowpokes, slack-bodied in their saddles, who have been tending the same herd for two months.
attitude writing emotional
I do not think one can assess a writer's motives without knowing something of his early development. His subject matter will be determined by the age he lives in ... but before he ever begins to write he will have acquired an emotional attitude from which he will never completely escape.
