There are some good people. But a good chunk of them will lie for no reason at all – it’ll be ten o’clock and they’ll tell you it’s nine. You’re looking at the clock and you can’t even fathom why they’re lying. They just lie because that’s what they do.

When you’re 20 or 30, looking ahead, you see these benchmarks for relationships, career, ambition, sexuality, and they went off into infinity. When you get to 50, you look at what’s ahead of you, and there’s an end. It goes into a nothingness, a void.

I am waiting for the right story to tell. Just like ‘Man of Tai Chi’ just seemed to be the right story to tell. So I’m looking for that. Because I really love directing. I love developing the story. I love actors. I love the cinema of it, the way that you tell a story visually.

‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ is a movie that really impressed me as a teenager. And also ‘Blade Runner.’ And ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind’ is also one of my favorites. I’m always looking for sci-fi material, and it’s difficult to find original and strong material that’s not just about weaponry.

Belfast is a city which, while not forgetting its past, is living comfortably with its present and looking forward to its future.

James Nesbitt

At the Sahara, the seats are banked and most of the audience is looking down at the stage. Everybody in the business knows: Up for singers, down for comics. The people want to idealize a singer.

Barry Silbert

It took me a good decade of hiding in my house and not going outside to even, like, get my arms around this idea of celebrity, where suddenly people are looking for you to pick your nose or get a shot of you kissing some woman. It’s a very discombobulating thing.

You’re right on the money with that. We’re all like detectives in life. There’s something at the end of the trail that we’re all looking for.

David Lynch

The only real security is not in owning or possessing, not in demanding or expecting, not in hoping, even. Security in a relationship lies neither in looking back to what it was, nor forward to what it might be, but living in the present and accepting it as it is now.

Anne Morrow Lindbergh

When you look at the social cost of carbon – and there is a lot of ambiguity around that – what you also need to be doing is looking at the benefits of carbon and what that has on increased agriculture production.

Marsha Blackburn

I treat health and fitness as looking after myself.

Iskra Lawrence

It is always the case that when the Christian looks back, he is looking at the forgiveness of sins.

Karl Barth

I haven’t been baptised. My dad’s not in the church and is not a religious person. My mum is more spiritual – she does Thai-chi and goes to Stonehenge and things like that. I’m proud to be pagan. Finland is not really a religious country. I’m still looking for my god.

Ville Valo

I think Detroit is already providing a model for change in the world. I think that Detroit – I mean, people come from all over the world come to see what we’re doing. People are looking for a new way of living.

Grace Lee Boggs

We are looking for happiness and running after it in such a way that creates anger, fear and discrimination. So when you attend a retreat, you have a chance to look at the deep roots of this pollution of the collective energy that is unwholesome.

Thich Nhat Hanh

The nice thing about a horror movie is that people go in looking to be unsettled.

Ari Aster

I’m always looking for a new challenge. There are a lot of mountains to climb out there. When I run out of mountains, I’ll build a new one.

Sylvester Stallone

The times may have changed, but the people are still the same. We’re still looking for love, and that will always be our struggle as human beings.

Halle Berry

Tinder makes it obvious that I’m not alone in being single and that there are plenty of single parents looking for a partner. A date not having the potential I’d hoped for is no longer a tragedy, and suddenly dating is fun again. I no longer feel pressured. I trust that someone, eventually, will like me for me.

Stephanie Land

Earnings don’t move the overall market; it’s the Federal Reserve Board… focus on the central banks, and focus on the movement of liquidity… most people in the market are looking for earnings and conventional measures. It’s liquidity that moves markets.

Stanley Druckenmiller

Every time I am looking into the depths of somebody’s brain, I’m thinking, ‘This is what makes a person who they are. That structure contains memories. Everything that they’ve ever experienced is right in there.’

Ben Carson

They went into my closets looking for skeletons, but thank God, all they found were shoes, beautiful shoes.

Imelda Marcos

I can think of nothing more boring for the American people than to have to sit in their living rooms for a whole half hour looking at my face on their television screens.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

I look for individuality in the artisans I work with for CoutureLab; a loving relationship with the product and care in the construction, along with the story behind it, make couture desirable to consumers looking for something that cannot be mass-produced.

Carmen Busquets

I used to be a conscious person in terms of dressing, and I wasn’t comfortable with my body, so I wouldn’t dress in a certain way. Now I am comfortable, and nothing bothers me. Once you are comfortable, everything starts looking good.

Kriti Kharbanda

I’m always looking for instances of people doing things for and with each other for pleasure, for passion, for camaraderie, from kindness. It’s the anthropology of people figuring how to punctuate life with the lyrical.

Debra Granik

My belief is that my wife should be at home looking after my kids and cooking and cleaning. She’s a very privileged woman to have a husband like me. Not everyone’s in her position, but the ones who are are very lucky. That’s my opinion.

Tyson Fury

But first, the news: The House of Commons was sealed off today after police chased an escaped lunatic through the front door during Prime Minister’s question time. A spokesman at Scotland Yard said it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Ronnie Barker

To my mind, there is no doubt that this Gandhi age is the dark age of India. It is an age in which people, instead of looking for their ideals in the future, are returning to antiquity.

B. R. Ambedkar

In your teens and twenties, death doesn’t exist. In your thirties, you glance down the road occasionally. But then in your forties, it becomes a full-time job looking the other way.

John Niven

There’s so much more to life than looking a certain way.

Hilary Swank

The biggest competition is myself. I am not looking to follow others or pull them down. I’m planning to test my own boundaries.

Rain

We have to keep winning and looking good and keep fighting the best competition out there.

Errol Spence Jr.

To me, the Seventies were very inspirational and very influential… With my whole persona as Snoop Dogg, as a person, as a rapper. I just love the Seventies style, the way all the players dressed nice, you know, kept their hair looking good, drove sharp cars and they talked real slick.

Snoop Dogg

One sometimes finds what one is not looking for.

Alexander Fleming

The world of Manhattan is small and tightly knit, and the man on top retains a certain humility. He knows how far and fast he can fall by looking at the guy across the street. The view from the $250,000 apartment covers a lot of ground, most of it condemned.

Herb Caen

I don’t very much enjoy looking at paintings in general. I know too much about them. I take them apart.

Georgia O’Keeffe

I am single and not looking to be in a relationship.

Chris Evans

I never doubted my ability, but when you hear all your life you’re inferior, it makes you wonder if the other guys have something you’ve never seen before. If they do, I’m still looking for it.

Hank Aaron

I’ve always been fascinated by what you can learn from looking into your DNA.

Leah Busque

Life is short and if you’re looking for extension, you had best do well. ‘Cause there’s good deeds and then there’s good intentions. They are as far apart as Heaven and Hell.

Ben Harper

Why does the lizard stick his tongue out? The lizard sticks its tongue out because that’s the way its listening and looking and tasting its environment. It’s its means of appreciating what’s in front of it.

William Shatner

Sometimes the best way to learn something is by doing it wrong and looking at what you did.

Neil Gaiman

What we’re looking at is a future where cars will be comfortable and safe and offer the luxuries of both home and office. That means lots of sensors and software, as well as the critical safety systems to protect the car’s information from hackers.

Dinesh Paliwal

I had always been interested in race and racial justice, but mostly it was with my nose pressed up against the glass, looking at the South from a long way away.

Tom Brokaw

When you are spiritually connected, you are not looking for occasions to be offended, and you are not judging and labeling others. You are in a state of grace in which you know you are connected to God and thus free from the effects of anyone or anything external to yourself.

Wayne Dyer

They say Elvis is dead. I say, no, you’re looking at him. Elvis isn’t dead; he just changed color.

Dennis Rodman

I will be so glad to take the picture and pose and look good for the picture. But when you catch me while I’m looking real sideways and the picture’s ugly as hell, I don’t want you to have the picture like that!

Busta Rhymes

I am a strong man, I am always looking forward and this is my main thing.

Abdoulaye Doucoure

I grew up playing hockey and some football, and I always think about the first time you walk into the locker room on a new team. The cliques are looking at you funny, and you make one friend, but then they’re trying to stab you in the back.

Aaron Douglas

People look to time in expectation that it will eventually make them happy, but you cannot find true happiness by looking toward the future.

Eckhart Tolle

We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.

Lloyd Alexander

Death is a commingling of eternity with time; in the death of a good man, eternity is seen looking through time.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I find it hard to focus looking forward. So I look backward.

Iggy Pop

I have always believed in magic. I used to run into the woods as a little kid looking for witches. But I’m not superstitious, because I m not afraid of it. I see it as something really beautiful, and I wouldn’t want to live in a world without magic.

Anya Taylor-Joy

I’m not interested in seeing a film just made by a woman – not unless she is looking for new images.

Agnes Varda

Stressing output is the key to improving productivity, while looking to increase activity can result in just the opposite.

Paul Gauguin

I’ve got CDs in my car, listening all the time for that next song, because everybody’s looking.

Reba McEntire

Let us be about setting high standards for life, love, creativity, and wisdom. If our expectations in these areas are low, we are not likely to experience wellness. Setting high standards makes every day and every decade worth looking forward to.

Greg Anderson

I’m not to be confused with Natasha Henstridge in ‘Species,’ where I just emerge out of the weird alien womb looking amazing. I really rely heavily on my black outfits and my gold chains to give me sort of a thing.

Natasha Lyonne

I had never thought that I would get into acting but I was very cute and pretty looking.

Rashami Desai

I would reject wholeheartedly any notion of a Labour Party that is not committed to returning to power at the first opportunity. Of course that needs to be principled power. But standing on the sidelines looking for the purest ideology is a dereliction of the duty for any Labour member.

Keir Starmer

I’m just looking for that one song that I know everybody’s going to be like, ‘Damn, that’s a good song.’

Eric Nam

I’m always looking to the future and what will next be on the horizon.

Jose Andres

Oftentimes, I’ll be looking through my closet and I realize I’ll have something that was new or something I didn’t realize I had.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

When I’m out, maybe I’m looking at the fried chicken, but I know I need to order the grilled. But I’m still from the country. I love my fried food and my neck bones and all that, too.

Adrian Peterson

The real middle class India that has always been looking for a voice that is its very own. I write about it because I belong to it.

Chetan Bhagat

I don’t know what else I would be if I wasn’t me. I am not looking from the outside, looking back. I am who I am.

Cher

Music is only love looking for words.

Lawrence Durrell

Men are hung up on breasts. They’re looking at the titty dinner. It’s pathetic.

Betty Dodson

I’m just looking to learn, grow, stay focused, and become a better fighter and a better athlete.

Conor McGregor

I run a meme type of account on Twitter; I know what my audience is looking for.

Lil Nas X

In Kenya women are the first victims of environmental degradation, because they are the ones who walk for hours looking for water, who fetch firewood, who provide food for their families.

Wangari Maathai

I would love to get great performances from actors as a director, because that’s what I’m always looking for, a director that’s going to help me go places I’ve never been before.

Aaron Eckhart

Looking good is the best revenge.

Ivana Trump

I got into being vegan because I was simply looking to benefit from being more compassionate. I have since come to learn that it is an animal-based diet that is responsible for the overwhelming majority of cases of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, multiple sclerosis, and all kinds of other problems.

Steve-O

Spider-Man has always been a symbol of goodness and doing the right thing and looking after your fellow man.

Andrew Garfield

If you begin to think you’re something you’re not, you’re looking in the wrong mirror.

Gene Cernan

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.

Steve Jobs

The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face.

William Makepeace Thackeray

I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence but it comes from within. It is there all the time.

Anna Freud

Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.

Henry Ford

It’s an absolute honor to be taking part in the pageant for the Diamond Jubilee. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and will be a moment in history that will always be remembered. I’m really looking forward to being out on the river with friends and family. To mark this historic moment will be extremely special.

Steve McFadden

Looking ahead, I believe that the underlying importance of higher education, of science, of technology, of research and scholarship to our quality of life, to the strength of our economy, to our security in many dimensions will continue to be the most important message.

Charles Vest

Have you not noticed that love is silence? It may be while holding the hand of another, or looking lovingly at a child, or taking in the beauty of an evening. Love has no past or future, and so it is with this extraordinary state of silence.

Jiddu Krishnamurti

There are no plans that always work in life. For me, the secret to happiness is being positive and looking at the brighter side of my life.

Karisma Kapoor

I don’t think you can create culture and develop core values during great times. I think it’s when the company faces adversity of extraordinary proportions, when there’s no reason for the company to survive, when you’re looking at incredible odds – that’s when culture is developed, character is developed.

Jensen Huang

I wasn’t looking at it like, ‘I’m singing for AC/DC.’ I was looking at it like, ‘Y’know, if I can, and if they think I’m able to do it.’

Axl Rose

Most of the intelligence out there must be artificial intelligence. We keep looking for critters like us living on a planet like ours, where in fact the majority of the intelligence out there is not biological. That would be my argument.

Seth Shostak

I’m always looking to develop my sound and I’m in the studio whenever I have the time to do this. Always looking ahead!

Kygo

I’m looking for a world where love will no longer be extraordinary.

Patch Adams

I think at people’s core, everybody’s just looking to be healed inside because we all coming with childhood trauma, especially people of color.

Kirk Franklin

I’ve learned over the years that people are human and have mood swings, regardless of how talented they are. Today, I’m looking at life from a realistic point of view instead of the way I would want things to be.

Otis Williams

Until I began to learn to draw, I was never much interested in looking at art.

Richard P. Feynman

I want to make exalted art. A successful image has pictorial lift. I am looking for whatever is up there.

Frank Stella

I just cash in on the fact that I’m good looking, and I’ve got a nice figure and girls like me.

Sid Vicious

The obvious choice isn’t always the best choice, but sometimes, by golly, it is. I don’t stop looking as soon I find an obvious answer, but if I go on looking, and the obvious-seeming answer still seems obvious, I don’t feel guilty about keeping it.

Eliezer Yudkowsky

There is a page in ‘Diary of a Worm’ in which the worm tells his sister that no matter how much time she spends looking in the mirror, her face will always look just like her rear end. Any girl that grew up with brothers can relate to the merciless teasing.

Doreen Cronin

To be smart on crime, we should not be in a position of constantly reacting to crime after it happens. We should be looking at preventing crime before it happens.

Kamala Harris

And as I’ve gotten older, I’ve had more of a tendency to look for people who live by kindness, tolerance, compassion, a gentler way of looking at things.

Martin Scorsese

Remember, you must not sleep at the Seder. If you do, Elijah the Prophet will come with a bag on his shoulders. On the two first nights of Passover, Elijah the Prophet goes about looking for those who have fallen asleep at the Seder, and takes them away in his bag.

Sholom Aleichem

I’m not a tech guy. I’m looking at the technology with the eyes of my customers, normal people’s eyes.

Jack Ma

You’re looking for players whose name on the front of the sweater is more important than the one on the back. I look for these players to play hard, to play smart and to represent their country.

Herb Brooks

I remember, when I was a young guy in the SEAL teams, I was very afraid of making mistakes and looking stupid or doing dumb things and getting a bad reputation.

Jocko Willink

Anyone who takes himself too seriously always runs the risk of looking ridiculous; anyone who can consistently laugh at himself does not.

Vaclav Havel

I am looking forward to working with Congressman Hobson and Vorys Advisors to help Ohio businesses and organizations achieve their goals and objectives.

Zack Space

What I am looking for is a blessing not in disguise.

Jerome K. Jerome

On ‘EastEnders,’ if someone gets surprising news on the phone, the scene ends with them looking at their handset in amazement. No one in real life does that.

Robert Webb

Looking back, I’m so proud to have gone to five Olympics – I believe only three other Americans have achieved that.

Gail Devers

Approaching people looking for something in return isn’t a relationship, it’s a transaction.

Mark Manson

The way I am, I like to look forward instead of looking back.

Jamie Redknapp

I’m an introvert… I love being by myself, love being outdoors, love taking a long walk with my dogs and looking at the trees, flowers, the sky.

Audrey Hepburn

The financial markets generally are unpredictable. So that one has to have different scenarios… The idea that you can actually predict what’s going to happen contradicts my way of looking at the market.

George Soros

I don’t get too much enjoyment out of sitting around the campfire and looking at old photos. That’s just not me. I don’t get the thrill of doing that. So, I don’t sit around listening to my old records.

Mike Patton

As the evening progressed, Scott said that he was looking forward to settling down, but that he hadn’t yet found the right person. The way he looked at me when he said that made me feel he might be wondering whether I was that person.

Amber Frey

Being an independent inventor is tough. You develop a product, patent it, then you’re looking for someone who will see the benefit from this technology. You assume all the investment and all the risk. It can be a challenge.

Lonnie Johnson

Life has loveliness to sell, all beautiful and splendid things, blue waves whitened on a cliff, soaring fire that sways and sings, and children’s faces looking up, holding wonder like a cup.

Sara Teasdale

I wanted to write about looking at the world, so it’s more about helping people, or persuading people, to see what is around us; both the marvellous and the terrible.

John Berger

These people live again in print as intensely as when their images were captured on old dry plates of sixty years ago… I am walking in their alleys, standing in their rooms and sheds and workshops, looking in and out of their windows. Any they in turn seem to be aware of me.

Ansel Adams

Maybe I just look at things as a humanist: I like looking at people in a realistic way more than looking at them in a positive way.

Stromae

I was about to meet Beyonce, and I had a full-blown anxiety attack. Then she popped in looking gorgeous, and said, ‘You’re amazing! When I listen to you I feel like I’m listening to God.’

Adele

It is no use to blame the looking glass if your face is awry.

Nikolai Gogol

I taught myself to tune in to another person’s wavelength, figure out what they were looking for, and try to project that thing back at them.

Wolfman Jack

There are many ways people think of God, and thousands of flavors of Christianity, Judaism, Islam… but they’re always looking at something that’s not measurable or you can’t really see or control.

Anthony Levandowski

When they get a 50-inch waist and a gorilla butt, it’s ugly looking – and I think bodybuilding has become ugly looking.

Joe Gold

My first book was called, ‘Mountain, Get Out of My Way,’ where I did an autobiographical sketch, if you will, looking back at myself and looking back at things in my life, and juxtaposing them against things that are happening in other people’s lives and trying to be motivational.

Montel Williams

I was a backstage kid. I was in the wings looking out.

Joely Fisher

In my last year of school, I was voted Class Optimist and Class Pessimist. Looking back, I realize I was only half right.

Jack Nicholson

I’ve always been interested in arrival, and coming to a space, and even to looking back at where you were.

James Turrell

I shouldn’t say I’m looking forward to leading a normal life, because I don’t know what normal is.

Martina Navratilova

I’m always looking forward and trying to improve.

Santan Dave

I believe you win the race by looking forward, not behind.

Payal Kadakia

Firstly, there is no perfect man. Looking for that it worse than starting the race badly, it means you’re in the wrong race. What women should be searching for is their ideal man – i.e. the one whose values, beliefs and outlook on life synergise with their own.

Matthew Hussey

To know ahead of time what you’re looking for means you’re then only photographing your own preconceptions, which is very limiting, and often false.

Dorothea Lange

I can’t stress to you enough how much I can relate to teens being cyberbullied. Something that helps me is looking at old videos of me and my friends from middle school, or videos of my family. I love watching funny videos of my favorite people – it really cheers me up.

Ariana Grande

Know your target audience. Always keep them at the forefront of your mind. Understand their lifestyle and what they are looking for. Gather their feedback and use it to tailor your approach. The voice of the consumer is an essential input into the development of any fashion business or blog.

Imran Amed

Had the price of looking been blindness, I would have looked.

Ralph Ellison

Everybody’s looking for the niche to make the difference. Some people think they see the mother lode in the beautiful people, especially the vote of the beautiful women.

Suzanne Fields

Rick Rubin

I’m always looking for new ways to create flavorful veggie dishes for my family.

Ayesha Curry

I love looking in the mirror and feeling good about what I see.

Heather Morris

I am always looking forward to learn new things in my life.

Shikhar Dhawan

You work on it. You talk about it. You don’t go out looking for greener grass; sometimes you have to water the grass that you have. And that’s what marriage is. Sometimes it can be hard.

Chrishell Stause

I’m very fortunate and grateful to wake up every morning in the rural countryside I live in, looking at farmland and these beautiful mountains.

Aaron Dessner

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.

Albert Camus

I have definitely been curious and involved in the process; even as a young actor. I was always looking at where the camera was, what story it was telling. And as my experience grew, I wanted to know even more.

Keanu Reeves

My home is attached to a study – in fact, my home is my study, and I have a little room to sleep in. I need to write looking onto the street or a landscape. Looking at reality from some distance gives me romantic visions.

Orhan Pamuk

The secret to so many artists living so long is that every painting is a new adventure. So, you see, they’re always looking ahead to something new and exciting. The secret is not to look back.

Norman Rockwell

People are always looking for the single magic bullet that will totally change everything. There is no single magic bullet.

Temple Grandin

No matter how tough my life was, I was always looking up at the sky and wishing for good things.

Mahira Khan

In yoga, we say that everyone has a magnet on them, and you’re either positively or negatively charged. So if you’re liking how you’re looking, you’re gonna be more positively charged.

Jonathan Van Ness

I think people often come to the synagogue, mosque, the church looking for God, and what we give them is religion.

Gene Robinson

But there’s no point in looking back and saying I was unlucky.

Jamie Redknapp

I’ve got my interests and my life experiences as I’m putting lyrics together. And if you start looking at patterns, you start thinking, ‘Well, what am I really singing about here?’ A lot of it seems to be a battle for some freedom against oppressive forces. That seems to be a theme in a lot of the albums I’ve done.

Matt Bellamy

You’re always looking to go one step further and I’m an ambitious boy.

John McGinn

The art of economics consists in looking not merely at the immediate but at the longer effects of any act or policy; it consists in tracing the consequences of that policy not merely for one group but for all groups.

Henry Hazlitt

The problem with looking in the mirror is that you never know how you will feel about what you see. Sometimes, when my hormones are out of sync, I have no interest in the mirror, and if I do look I think everything is all wrong. Other times, I am quite pleased with what I see.

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Nashville used to have more integrity than just looking at the bottom line.

Crystal Gayle

We live in downtown Manhattan and we have pretty big windows that looked right at the World Trade Center. I was home along with Kai and we watched it all happen. I was holding him in my arms and we were looking out the window when the second plane hit.

Jennifer Connelly

When I was at MIT, they had a beta test of Mosaic, the first popular browser. I remember looking at it, and there was a weather map or something. Now, in fairness to me, there weren’t any websites then. But I remember saying, ‘This is stupid – what’s the point?’ Now, of course, it’s obvious.

Austan Goolsbee

I was never interested in looking at myself in an aesthetic mirror. My intention was always to get away from myself, though I knew perfectly well that I was using myself. Call it a little game between ‘I’ and ‘me.’

Marcel Duchamp

The very first big photo shoot I ever did was with Bruce Weber. I couldn’t believe this guy was taking my picture, so when he told me to get in the bathtub, I just did. It’s only now, looking back, that I realise, you don’t have to do everything people tell you.

Matt Damon

Usually we are illuminating things instead of looking at the light itself. But I like this quality of the light being the revelation.

James Turrell

Feeling good about government is like looking on the bright side of any catastrophe. When you quit looking on the bright side, the catastrophe is still there.

P. J. O’Rourke

Nowadays, everyone has a camera phone, and you have to be careful about being caught out there looking crazy and ending up on the Internet.

Keith Sweat

I know that when I’m standing alone below a thousand-foot wall, looking up and considering a climb, my sponsors are the furthest thing from my mind. If I’m going to take risks, they are going to be for myself – not for any company.

Alex Honnold

I do, indeed, close my door at times and surrender myself to a book, but only because I can open the door again and see a human face looking at me.

Martin Buber

Zico was my idol. He was a very good player from Flamengo, and I was a Flamengo supporter from Rio de Janeiro. I was always looking for him and saying I want to be like him. He’s my big hero.

Ronaldo

Joy in looking and comprehending is nature’s most beautiful gift.

Albert Einstein

When you go looking for rescue, you end up trapped in your own weakness.

Deb Caletti

I always knew looking back on my tears would bring me laughter, but I never knew looking back on my laughter would make me cry.

Cat Stevens

I’m also looking for gems that the average reader might have missed.

Terri Windling

Looking for perfection is the only way to motivate yourself.

Ronnie O’Sullivan

If 10 years from now, when you are doing something quick and dirty, you suddenly visualize that I am looking over your shoulders and say to yourself: ‘Dijkstra would not have liked this’, well that would be enough immortality for me.

Edsger Dijkstra

I always wear make-up as I’ve never seen the point of looking less than your best.

Elizabeth Hurley

Here is the difference between Dante, Milton, and me. They wrote about hell and never saw the place. I wrote about Chicago after looking the town over for years and years.

Carl Sandburg

People are overwhelmed looking up at the Mount Everest of environmental challenges that we face. But you put one foot in front of the other and you recognize that not everyone is Sir Edmund Hillary.

Ed Begley, Jr.

All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change you. The only thing blame does is to keep the focus off you when you are looking for… reasons to explain your unhappiness or frustration.

Casey Stengel

Artemis women often have difficult childhoods. She’s the kid who seeks comfort in the woods, or animals, or books. If trapped in an authoritarian family, she blends in to get by – but keeps a fierce autonomy inside her head and heart, looking to the day she breaks free.

Justine Musk

We have eyes, and we’re looking at stuff all the time, all day long. And I just think that whatever our eyes touch should be beautiful, tasteful, appealing, and important.

Eric Carle

So many girls only care about guys and looking good all the time.

Victoria Justice

I’ve sat looking down into a volcano that could blow at any moment; I’ve helped catch a shark and several rattlesnakes; I let a tarantula walk across my hand, and I ate rat soup.

Alan Alda

We live in an impatient world. Everybody is always looking for the next big Kobe, the next big LeBron, the next big Twitter.

Shaquille O’Neal

I’m prepared to try to talk to a very beautiful girl. I learned a fantastic secret, which is that the most beautiful woman in the room is not being spoken to because she’s too intimidating. They’re not looking for somebody beautiful; they’re looking for somebody to amuse them.

Ben Miller

Love at first sight is easy to understand; it’s when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle.

Sam Levenson

Looking good and feeling good go hand in hand. If you have a healthy lifestyle, your diet and nutrition are set, and you’re working out, you’re going to feel good.

Jason Statham

Blushes are fun. I like to do circles – like a Caravaggio painting almost, or Victorian looking.

Perfume Genius

I got arrested once on stage in Memphis for looking too much like Liza Minnelli.

David Johansen

Prayer’s important, not just as some kind of a metaphysical exercise, but I think it’s a way to refresh one’s own mind and motive. If you’re praying, you’re really looking beyond your own personal thoughts and the pressures that are around you.

Mike Huckabee

The reason a lot of people do not recognize opportunity is because it usually goes around wearing overalls looking like hard work.

Thomas A. Edison

We have to forget the past. History is something that even today we are paying the consequences, and the future is integration. We all as a people, as citizens, as the leadership of both countries should be looking in that direction.

Atifete Jahjaga

I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence but it comes from within. It is there all the time.

Anna Freud

I am always wary of decisions made hastily. I am always wary of the first decision, that is, the first thing that comes to my mind if I have to make a decision. This is usually the wrong thing. I have to wait and assess, looking deep into myself, taking the necessary time.

Pope Francis

Going out and looking for managers is like going out and looking for rattlesnakes.

Walter Becker

Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.

Henry David Thoreau

I was standing on a ladder outside the Homestead juvenile immigrant detention center outside Miami, looking over the fence, and I saw children lined up like prisoners. They had been separated from their families and put in this private detention facility. It was horrible.

Kamala Harris

I remember lying out in my bed and looking at the vast, quiet sky. Right up above my head, there were three stars in a row, and I remember thinking, ‘Well, I’ll have those three stars all my life, and wherever I am, they will be. They are my stars, and they belong to me.’

Spike Milligan

If someone has it inside them to commit an act, then that act would be committed anyway. It’s very easy for someone to place the blame on something other than the person who committed the act. It’s people looking for scapegoats, you know?

Cliff Burton

The experimenter who does not know what he is looking for will not understand what he finds.

Claude Bernard

You need to keep looking forward; don’t ever look back.

Chad Kelly

I wish I could remember where I put things. I spend half my life looking for my keys. With the other half I look for my glasses.

Sara Paretsky

If I’m too busy looking in the past, how can I see what’s in front of me with the future?

Marcus Smart

I believe that looking at the sunset or the city’s landscape helps me think.

Jubin Nautiyal

There aren’t always answers for the questions you’re looking for, so I have to make peace with that sometimes.

Kathleen Edwards

After the situation with Kursk submarine, I started looking at Mr. Berezovsky in a completely different way. For me, it was a turning point in our relationship. I think that he took a completely dishonorable position.

Roman Abramovich

I’ve been looking around, and I noticed something: how much you really need to be loved. Ambition isn’t just a desperate quest for positions or money. It’s just love – lots of love.

Janis Joplin

If you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, you are looking the wrong way.

Barry Commoner

What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.

Helen Keller

People like Frank Zappa and Bryan Ferry knew we could pick and choose from the history of music, stick things together looking for friction and energy. They were more like playwrights; they invented characters and wrote a life around them.

Brian Eno

Well, you have to keep your faith in the fact that there are a lot of intelligent people who are actively looking for something interesting, people who have been disappointed so many times.

Richard Linklater

Going around under an umbrella interferes with one’s looking up at the sky.

Jerzy Kosinski

Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so.

Ray Stannard Baker

We’re looking at all forms of election irregularities, voter fraud, voter registration fraud, voter intimidation, suppression, and looking at the vulnerabilities of the various elections we have in each of the 50 states.

Kris Kobach

I had to create an equivalent for what I felt about what I was looking at – not copy it.

Georgia O’Keeffe

When I’m talking about depression, I’m talking about the more severe forms of depression, and I think that conceptualising as a form of grief is probably not the most effective way of looking at it. I mean, at the end of the day, people suffer enormously, and you want to treat it.

Kay Redfield Jamison

As a kid, looking at Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye, New Edition, the Temptations, Motown, people who I felt were huge artists, they made me wanna do something.

Usher

I don’t care what town you’re born in, what city, what country. If you’re a child, you are curious about your environment. You’re overturning rocks. You’re plucking leaves off of trees and petals off of flowers, looking inside, and you’re doing things that create disorder in the lives of the adults around you.

Neil deGrasse Tyson

Psychopaths are social predators, and like all predators, they are looking for feeding grounds. Wherever you get power, prestige and money, you will find them.

Robert D. Hare

Character is doing the right thing when nobody’s looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that’s right is to get by, and the only thing that’s wrong is to get caught.

J. C. Watts

Do your best when no one is looking. If you do that, then you can be successful in anything that you put your mind to.

Bob Cousy

Temptation is the devil looking through the keyhole. Yielding is opening the door and inviting him in.

Billy Sunday

‘Choli Ke Peeche’ and ‘Ek Doh Teen’ were my favourite numbers as a kid. I was a huge fan of Madhuri Dixit and would spend hours looking into the mirror and aping her expressions, believing that the mirror was the camera!

Karishma Tanna

I like the thought that what we are to do on this earth is embellish it for its greater beauty, so that oncoming generations can look back to the shapes we leave here and get the same thrill that I get in looking back at theirs – at the Parthenon, at Chartres Cathedral.

Philip Johnson

No one could have been nicer, classier nor better looking than Dick Clark. I’ve had a crush on him since I was a teenager.

Dolly Parton

If I’ve learned anything from TJ, it’s that life is a fine balance of holding on, letting go, and never looking back unless it’s to admire how far you’ve come.

Natalya Neidhart

I try to give people a different way of looking at their surroundings. That’s art to me.

Maya Lin

I love those preliminary conversations about who a character is. You try on wigs, shoes, and clothes. It’s preferable when it’s not about looking pretty. It can get a little dull to just be cute.

Rachel McAdams

A love of books, of holding a book, turning its pages, looking at its pictures, and living its fascinating stories goes hand-in-hand with a love of learning.

Laura Bush

The best way to find out whether you’re on the right path? Stop looking at the path.

Marcus Buckingham

What I’m still grappling with and learning how to do is to be looking and thinking cinematically, having come from television.

J. J. Abrams

I’ve admired Anthony Hopkins for so long, and when I finally got to meet him in person, I became totally immobile and speechless! I stood there looking at him and couldn’t say a word.

Bryce Dallas Howard

But let me tell you, this gender thing is history. You’re looking at a guy who sat down with Margaret Thatcher across the table and talked about serious issues.

George H. W. Bush

I consider myself a progressive. I have a passion for people who work. To me, this is about forward looking versus backward looking. Ideological gradations are the wrong way to look at it.

Rahm Emanuel

Patriotism is easy to understand in America. It means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country.

Calvin Coolidge

On tour, it’s either call ex-boyfriends or tweet a lot. You’re just looking for any proof that you’re not completely alone.

Chelsea Peretti

It’s always obvious to me when someone is looking at me with an idea of who I am and hoping that that’s the person I’m going to be. No matter how subtle it is, it’s there, and you want to give them who they really want. But it ain’t me.

Judith Guest

My uncle Sammy was an angry man. He had printed on his tombstone: What are you looking at?

Margaret Smith

The notion of looking on at life has always been hateful to me. What am I if I am not a participant? In order to be, I must participate.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

I definitely learned to appreciate there is something about looking good. I think it’s been sort of lost in the last 50 years, this idea of looking very nice and very put together.

Kevin Zegers

I don’t like flying at the best of times. And as I get older, I like it less and less. I don’t much like driving, either. I prefer to be driven. And, when I’m in London, I don’t even like walking on the street. I can never get used to looking the right way when I cross the street.

Christopher Walken

You know, I try not to look back, because looking forward is so much better than looking backward.

Jim Bakker

When you head on out to the Moon, in very short order, and you get a chance to look back at the Earth, that horizon slowly curves around in upon himself, and all of sudden you’re looking at something that is very strange, but yet is very, very familiar, because you’re beginning to see the Earth evolve.

Gene Cernan

To this day, I don’t like people walking on stage not looking good. You have to look good. If you feel special about yourself then you’re going to play special.

Benny Goodman

Pride is an independent, me-oriented spirit. It makes people arrogant, rude and hard to get along with. When our heart is prideful, we don’t give God the credit and we mistreat people, looking down on them and thinking we deserve what we have.

Joyce Meyer

I don’t like looking back. I’m always constantly looking forward. I’m not the one to sort of sit and cry over spilt milk. I’m too busy looking for the next cow.

Gordon Ramsay

I don’t find it hard to direct myself. I can easily think of me as a horrible performer or a good performer. I work with actors who cannot stand watching or looking at themselves, which is not my case. I can have an eye and perspective on whether I’m terrible or good enough for me.

Xavier Dolan

The history of horror movies goes back a long way… of people trying to convincingly be terrified when looking at a piece of tape on the side of the camera box. I have a whole new respect for it.

Josh Hamilton

In an artwork you’re always looking for artistic decisions, so an ashtray is perfect. An ashtray has got life and death.

Damien Hirst

Looking after my health today gives me a better hope for tomorrow.

Anne Wilson Schaef

Everyone wants to look good, but with CrossFit you get so much more besides looking good.

Rich Froning Jr.

When you tune your guitar in a different way, it lends itself to a new way of looking at your songwriting.

Sheryl Crow

I’m happy, I’m in a good place, I’m looking forward to my future.

Katy Perry

Living is no laughing matter: you must live with great seriousness like a squirrel for example – I mean without looking for something beyond and above living, I mean living must be your whole occupation.

Nazim Hikmet

I care more about Curtis than I do about selfies and looking good.

A. J. Pritchard

When we’re looking for compassion, we need someone who is deeply rooted, is able to bend and, most of all, embraces us for our strengths and struggles.

Brene Brown

I wrote a song on the record called ‘Flawed Design’ and it’s basically looking at that, and it was just exploring how everybody obviously has flaws. I think to embrace those flaws – enjoy them, embrace them – and actually be a real person is something that a lot of people struggle with, myself included.

Adam Gontier

Some experiences can give you a chip on your shoulder, but they also teach you the value of independence and looking out for yourself.

Rick Ross

As any new parent knows, you’re only too happy to show off your new child and, you know, proclaim that he is the best looking or the best everything.

Prince William

Discount my partiality, but my report is that so far The Winds of War is looking good.

Herman Wouk

I think actors are very obsessed about looking different and behaving differently, but all people need is just a different film. They don’t want a different you; they want a different story.

Ayushmann Khurrana

All the people who were needed to be told about my decision were informed. 2021 World Cup would definitely be my swansong. I am looking forward to preparing for the World Cup.

Mithali Raj

Randy Moss was a fad. People were looking for some way to vote against Peyton Manning.

Lee Corso

Looking at the world from other species’ points of view is a cure for the disease of human self-importance. You suddenly realize that consciousness – which we value and we consider the crowning achievement of nature, human consciousness – is really just another set of tools for getting along in the world.

Michael Pollan

Looking back on those days and little leaguer, the Hall of Fame is not even a blinking star, but through baseball travels and moving up the ladder, that star begins to flicker.

Wade Boggs

Looking back isn’t going to help you. Moving forward is the thing you have to do.

McKayla Maroney

I write entirely to find out what I’m thinking, what I’m looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear.

Joan Didion

Common looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them.

Abraham Lincoln

My feet ain’t got nothing to do with my nickname, but when folks get it in their heads that a feller’s got big feet, soon the feet start looking big.

Satchel Paige

I wasn’t artistic in drawing or painting, but I think I am artistic in sport. I think I’m always looking for the ultimate, the maximum. It’s a challenge that excites me.

Robin Van Persie

When I look for people to work with, I’m just looking for talented people.

Kygo

Looking back is a way to sharpen the focus on the things you want to change in your life. I think there’s something about nostalgia that really puts a fine point on the here-and-now, and that can be incredibly fascinating and interesting and engaging for the mind.

Sarah Paulson

I am generally a very happy and easygoing person. I also believe it’s always better to meet people with a smile rather than looking cold, especially when you first meet. It changes everything.

Heidi Klum

After ‘Shirdi Sai,’ I wanted a total image makeover. I was looking to transform myself.

Akkineni Nagarjuna

A painter may be looking at the world in a way which is very different from everyone else. If he’s a craftsman, he can get other people to see the world through his eyes, and so he enlarges our vision, perception, and there’s great value in that.

Edward de Bono

A starry sky is equally interesting to a scientist, a mystic, an ethics scholar, and a poet. Looking at the stars, each experiences something different, and each sees his own picture.

Alija Izetbegovic

What my voting record reflects is constantly looking to improve the amount of resources we having going into research, development, and prototypes we have going into renewable energy sources.

Chris Gibson

Looking back at it now, any objective account of my life is bound to read like a cross between ‘The Wife of Bath’s Tale’ and a travel brochure.

Anne Stevenson

Golf is a game of ego, but it is also a game of integrity: the most important thing is you do what is right when no one is looking.

Tom Watson

It’s hard to decide how to match words to music. It’s not like it’s twice the work. It’s always difficult for me to explain to the composer what I’m looking for. I’m not a professional; I lack even basic knowledge about writing music.

Ayumi Hamasaki

I’m OK with being the Old Spice Guy because before I was the Old Spice Guy I was the guy looking for work on his couch.

Isaiah Mustafa

I think people are addicted to looking good in front of other people.

Gong Hyo-jin

I realize there’s a line between looking good and being an embarrassment. I don’t want to be one of those dames who is trying too hard to appear young. I’m Mamie Van Doren, and I fully intend to act my age.

Mamie Van Doren

Walk to work, even if it’s four miles. Ride a bike to work. Drive a different way. On your way there, try to find beauty. You’d be surprised how much more of the neighborhood you can perceive and experience when you’re looking for unique spots of beauty.

Nolan Bushnell

If you start becoming withdrawn and looking over your shoulder, being careful about what you say, that’s being paranoid. This is an open, accessible team. That’s been my trademark for years.

Art Modell

Before I start, I search the internet for hours looking for inspiration – I look at horror movies, special effects, everything. Then, I take a bunch of screenshots, and pile them together in Photoshop to create a story for myself. I plan it out in my head, but I don’t ever practice beforehand.

NikkieTutorials

When I am in my India jersey, I don’t want to be looking glamorous.

Smriti Mandhana

But I am a lover of all kinds of art. And I just can’t stick to one thing. I guess I could if I made myself, but I’d always be looking the other way, for other things.

Andre Benjamin

The thing is, we live in a contemporary world, and being able to make yourself the best person you can possible be can be difficult. But as long as you’re trying to figure it out, and you’re really looking in the right direction, everything’s going to be all right.

Andie MacDowell

I always write things that entertain me, and one of the things that I find really enjoyable to explore is the idea of love. I like looking at my own life and my friends and family and how love changes who you are. It fascinates me.

Stephenie Meyer

I found what I was looking for at Langley. This was what a research mathematician did. I went to work every day for 33 years happy. Never did I get up and say I don’t want to go to work.

Katherine Johnson

I have no regrets. I don’t believe in looking back. What I am proudest of? Working really hard… and achieving as much as I could.

Elena Kagan

It’s quite strange looking down the list of players who’ve won the young player award in the past and then thinking I’m in there too now. There’s some great names like Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy – and I can’t miss out Chris Gunter – and it’s a big boost to be included.

Aaron Ramsey

In the theater, while you recognized that you were looking at a house, it was a house in quotation marks. On screen, the quotation marks tend to be blotted out by the camera.

Arthur Miller

If you’re looking for can-do, earthy-crunchy attitude then you’ve got to go to Wisconsin.

Dar Williams

What has happened has happened. What is done cannot be undone. There is no point in looking back and ruminating over the past. I am a forward-looking man. I want to look ahead; I want to put my past behind me. I want to make my country proud.

Mohammad Azharuddin

Economic growth and environmental protection are not at odds. They’re opposite sides of the same coin if you’re looking at longer-term prosperity.

Henry Paulson

Ever since I made tomorrow my favorite day, I’ve been uncomfortable looking back.

Paul Harvey

We reach a secondary road and – here comes the bonus – we pass the Temple of Neptune and Cerene, at Paestum, both looking beautiful in the sunlight. Strung from the Doric columns are lines of soldiers’ washing. At last they had been put to practical use. If only the ancient Greeks had known.

Spike Milligan

Can I remember exactly when I ‘lost’ my husband? Was it the moment when I had to start tying his shoelaces for him? Or when we stopped being able to laugh with each other? Looking back, that turning point is impossible to pinpoint. But then, that’s the nature of dementia.

Judy Parfitt

Obviously, sometimes I just feel like looking like a box of crayons.

Brad Goreski

I go to Stanford, and I’m an economics major, not thinking I’m going to do anything with acting. A professor came to the dorm where I lived looking for people to audition for an August Wilson play, ‘Joe Turner’s Come And Gone.’ I gave it a shot, got one of the lead roles in the play.

Sterling K. Brown

I think I’m good at looking moody. I’m not much good at analysing myself, but I tend to fit the strange and tortured characters.

Marc Warren

I like looking feminine and I enjoy being a role model. I enjoy being a woman. It all comes down to having the confidence to be who you are.

Cathy Freeman

Stupidity trumps Machiavelli almost every time when you are looking for an explanation.

Robert Foster Bennett

There’s a way to win, and a way to play, and when you play like that, the ball’s moving and guys are looking for each other, the game is fun.

B. J. Armstrong

Never be so faithful to your plan that you are unwilling to consider the unexpected. Never be so faithful to your plan that you are unwilling to entertain the improbable opportunity that comes looking for you.

Elizabeth Warren

More and more, as I grow older, I find myself looking for inspiration in painting, illustration, videogames, and old movies.

Guillermo del Toro

I see myself as most people see themselves, you have good days and bad days. I don’t think I’m better looking now than I did three years ago.

Bill Skarsgard

I produced the Buckcherry album and I just finished a band called American Pearl on Wind-Up Records. That’s Creed’s label. They’re pretty rocking. Now I’m looking for another band to produce.

Steve Jones

Coldplay fans are the best in the world. If you like Coldplay then you’re obviously very intelligent and good looking and all-around brilliant.

Chris Martin

Looking back at all of my defeats, the only real punishment that I’ve taken in this sport was against Maidana. I got a fractured jaw.

Adrien Broner

There will always be, within a party, people who backed one candidate versus people who backed another, and there will be factions in the party, and there’s always a little glee faction looking at the difficulty of the other faction.

Mitt Romney

In black neighborhoods, everybody appreciated comedy about real life. In the white community, fantasy was funnier. I started looking for the jokes that were equally hilarious across the board, for totally different reasons.

Will Smith

I am only looking forward to good film script. It doesn’t matter if the role is a supporting or a standalone role.

Siddharth Shukla

As a cinematographer or director, I’m always looking for projects that are able to say a lot with the actor’s expressions.

Reed Morano

Dad’s Jewish and Irish, Mom’s German and Scotch. I couldn’t say I was anything. My last name isn’t even Downey. My dad changed his name when he wanted to get into the Army and was underage. My real name is Robert Elias. I feel like I’m still looking for a home in some way.

Robert Downey, Jr.

The first time I made any money, I was 27. I went to Bergdorf’s looking like a proper guttersnipe and bought a pair of Louboutins. I’d wear them and an old ink-stained kimono and make my drawings and feel indomitable.

Molly Crabapple

Everything will line up perfectly when knowing and living the truth becomes more important than looking good.

Alan Cohen

God is looking for people to use, and if you can get usable, he will wear you out. The most dangerous prayer you can pray is this: ‘Use me.’

Rick Warren

The opportunity to orbit the Earth, witnessing multiple sunrises and sunsets every day, looking back to our small blue life-sustaining jewel from a distance, gives me the greatest sense of anticipation.

Sarah Brightman

I am looking forward to being part of the E! team. This unique opportunity allows my company to take the next step in providing multimedia content.

Ryan Seacrest

My view of life is colored by humor and looking at the best in any situation.

Michael J. Fox

I like pursuing new endeavors. That’s part of the reason I wanted to direct. I like to create things. I’m a Gemini. I’m always looking for something new.

Chris Evans

Did you ever spell a word so bad that your spell check has absolutely no clue what you’re trying to spell? What do you end up getting, you end up getting, like, a question mark. You got a million dollars of technology just looking back at you like, ‘You got me, buddy. Which is pretty amazing because I have all the words.’

Bill Burr

The excursion is the same when you go looking for your sorrow as when you go looking for your joy.

Eudora Welty

I’m looking to try to do more out there and just taking advantage of the opportunities that I’ve been given.

Jayson Tatum

A lot of people quit looking for work as soon as they find a job.

Zig Ziglar

Leadership is simply the ability of an individual to coalesce the efforts of other individuals toward achieving common goals. It boils down to looking after your people and ensuring that, from top to bottom, everyone feels part of the team.

Frederick W. Smith

I’ve been told I’m too good looking for certain roles, but that’s okay, it just motivates me to go deeper.

Garrett Hedlund

If everybody knows where everything is kept you can avoid wasting time looking for things.

Anthea Turner

It really doesn’t matter who I fight. It’s about me putting on a good performance and just looking good overall that night.

Gervonta Davis

To look for some kind of insight or meaning in pop songs is not really – well there’s plenty of other places where you should probably look first before you start looking for it in a pop song.

Jason Newsted

My goal is to give girls and boys a different idea of expression. It’s not always about looking pretty or cute. It’s about expressing yourself however that may be, even if that’s being silly or goofy or weird.

Sia

The truth is we’re all searching. We’re all looking for guidance, for mentors, and I’m by no means someone to follow.

Jason Momoa

I was looking to become more proactive with my career because I wasn’t crazy with some of the scripts I was getting – this was before Blow and Hannibal – so I decided to start my own production company.

Ray Liotta

I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy.

Richard P. Feynman

I was often told that I wasn’t a thing. ‘She’s not pretty enough. She’s not tall enough. She’s not thin enough. She’s not fat enough.’ I thought, ‘O.K., someday you’re going to be looking for someone not, not, not, not, and there I’ll be.’

Frances McDormand

They spend their time looking forward to the past.

John Osborne

There have been ups and downs over the years, but that’s in the past, and now I’m just looking forward and focussed on the future ahead.

Jack Rodwell

There’s no permanent, fixed class consciousness. You can’t work out immediately what people think and what politics they have simply by looking at their socio-economic position.

Stuart Hall

Lose an hour in the morning, and you will spend all day looking for it.

Richard Whately

When you’re growing up, you play dress-up – it’s a game, it’s a pastime. And then as you get older, getting ready and looking nice becomes this constant stress. I want to make it fun again.

Lauren Conrad

All people go through moments that are tough, but looking at them through comedy is so fun. You can look at anything in life and say ‘Sure, this is crap, but it’s kinda funny.’

Helene Yorke

I feel like I’m kind of lazy, but I keep the yard looking good.

Kris Kristofferson

If you’re looking for immediate rewards, you’re only looking for the money.

Eartha Kitt

We’re learning things every decade we grow through, and ultimately, you do end up with a different way of looking at things.

Florence Pugh

I think art is good at looking back and looking forward. I don’t think art is good at looking head-on. At the end of the day, people are more important than paintings.

Damien Hirst

I’m happy, I’m healthy, I am not looking backwards – I’m only heading towards some kind of dreams of mine and living my dreams.

Tarja Turunen

I often lay on that bench looking up into the tree, past the trunk and up into the branches. It was particularly fine at night with the stars above the tree.

Georgia O’Keeffe

People will survive, and they will find happiness. Happiness only comes when you’re not looking for it.

Hugh Laurie

We can tell our values by looking at our checkbook stubs.

Gloria Steinem

You know the trait of a crocodile, don’t you? It never hunts outside water. It always goes into the water to catch its prey. It never goes in the villages or in the bush looking for food. It strikes at the appropriate time. So a good guerrilla leader strikes at the appropriate time.

Emmerson Mnangagwa

Myself, I suffer from loneliness. And I think we all feel alone. I’m looking for stories that help people deal with loneliness and help them if they are monsters: they don’t have to undertake monstrous actions. And maybe they’re not monsters.

David Harbour

Men become much more attractive when they start looking older. But it doesn’t do much for women, though we do have an advantage: make-up.

Bette Davis

Time makes a bigger difference: just making a game, shipping it, looking at what you did, how you did it, what you did well, what you didn’t do well, and doing better.

Todd Howard

I’m looking to find good stories, not big commercial pieces of work.

Amber Heard

When I grew up, you needed to have straight hair. It’s symbolic of needing to be like everyone else, needing to look like everyone else. And what that meant was looking like the dominant ruling class in America.

Anne Roiphe

The ordinary man looking at a mountain is like an illiterate person confronted with a Greek manuscript.

Aleister Crowley

Why do I write? I have been called a writer of catastrophes, but that isn’t true. I am always looking for words of love. Hate will not save us. Only love.

Svetlana Alexievich

Marriage is miserable unless you find the right person that is your soulmate and that takes a lot of looking.

Marvin Gaye

Where ever I am I always find myself looking out the window wishing I was somewhere else.

Angelina Jolie

I don’t believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

Joseph Campbell

If you’re a leader, can communicate, and have a great work ethic, those are the things you’re looking for.

Jon Gruden

Looking back, I wince at the careless way I tossed out my opinions.

Luke Ford

I’m looking to expand my portfolio while I’m on top and while I’m young.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

It’s sad to know I’m done. But looking back, I’ve got a lot of great memories.

Bonnie Blair

I’ve been disrespectful over the years in my career because I was living a young, turnt up life. So I’ve said a lot of crazy things about a lot of stuff and looking back, I wouldn’t take anything back, but looking forward, I wouldn’t do it again.

Ray J

The first time I flew after September 11, I honestly was a little paranoid. As I was going to the metal detector, I was looking at my duffel bag, and I’m like, ‘Do I have anything that’s like a weapon?’ I was really paranoid they were gonna find something sharp, and I was gonna get in trouble.

Maz Jobrani

As a struggling actor, you’re not looking for parts that define you; you’re just looking for work.

Matt Damon

I praticed making faces in the mirror and it would drive my mother crazy. She used to scare me by saying that I was going to see the devil if I kept looking in the mirror. That fascinated me even more, of course.

Jim Carrey

You can’t look back; you have to keep looking forward.

Lucy Liu

People are just looking for honesty and authenticity more than anything.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders

Views are overrated; it’s light that counts. I have an apartment in Miami’s South Beach, and I get tired of looking at the ocean. Even that view gets old after a while. Sunlight streaming into a room – it never gets old.

Michael Graves

If you wish to avoid seeing a fool you must first break your looking glass.

Francois Rabelais

When I go to a bar, I don’t go looking for a girl who knows the capital of Maine.

David Brenner

I have been working as an actor for 16-17 years now. The funny thing is I still feel awkward in communicating with the public as a star. It hasn’t been long since my drama ‘Goblin’ ended, and I’m looking forward for some time to rest.

Gong Yoo

While on top of Everest, I looked across the valley towards the great peak Makalu and mentally worked out a route about how it could be climbed. It showed me that even though I was standing on top of the world, it wasn’t the end of everything. I was still looking beyond to other interesting challenges.

Edmund Hillary

I hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see a black family it says they’re looting, if you see a white family it says they’re looking for food.

Kanye West

When I am behind and I am looking ahead and there is that line in front of you, of that guy, of winning and losing, then I really hang it out there and take big risks to make the speed up, and then I’m pretty good at passing.

Nate Holland

I like to take every day just searching my own heart, making sure that I’m on course, and I’m doing what God wants me to do. I’m real good with not looking to the critics and looking straight ahead.

Joel Osteen

There was a time in my life when I was going in and out of houses that were extraordinarily different – from a working-class terrace in Northampton to the homes of friends who were really very wealthy. It was quite an odd position to be in, I realise looking back, and quite a nice one.

Mark Haddon

Because I’m not perfect looking, I get to play better roles.

Juliette Lewis

People create their own questions because they are afraid to look straight. All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don’t sit looking at it – walk.

Ayn Rand

A little of what you call frippery is very necessary towards looking like the rest of the world.

Abigail Adams

Who said that looking good is not a task? There are so many girls with a well maintained body, but will they be able to walk the beachside in front of the camera wearing a swimsuit? Carrying your body in a certain manner to look sexy is also an art.

Taapsee Pannu

Mary Leakey

I really want a movie made on Sachin Tendulkar’s life. That is something I’m looking forward to. There will be so much emotion to that movie.

Virat Kohli

I was taught to confront things you can’t avoid. Death is one of those things. To live in a society where you’re trying not to look at it is stupid because looking at death throws us back into life with more vigour and energy. The fact that flowers don’t last for ever makes them beautiful.

Damien Hirst

I went to many games with my dad, Kevin, and looked up to the players. It’s surreal that now young fans are looking up to me.

Aaron Ramsey

When I was 7 and went to the zoo with my second-grade class, I saw chimpanzee eyes for the first time – the eyes of an unhappy animal, all alone, locked in a bare, concrete-floored, iron-barred cage in one of the nastier, old-fashioned zoos. I remember looking at the chimp, then looking away.

Octavia E. Butler

Jill McCorkle

The loneliness is when you pick up and move, even if you are not originally from that place, and you have some memories that you want to embrace. Having a life in transit, I feel like you are always looking out the back window.

Ajay Naidu

You don’t have to drink or swear or hit people in the face when they’re not looking, but you do have to be tough to win.

Tom Landry

When I did ‘Don’t Look Back,’ I no longer had Time-Life looking over my shoulder, so I could kind of do it as I wanted, and it was like I was really correcting ‘Jane.’

D. A. Pennebaker

It’s very difficult to understand, but I’m looking for a nonnarrative, multiscreen, present-tense cinema. Narrative is an artifact created by us. It does not exist at all in nature; it is a construct made by us, and I wonder whether we need the narrative anymore.

Peter Greenaway

I was a million percent in love with Edward Scissorhands. I remember looking in the mirror on the last day of shooting… and thinking how sad I was to be saying goodbye to Edward.

Johnny Depp

Marilyn Monroe

Believe it or not, I don’t wake up looking like a supermodel.

Tyra Banks

I don’t walk around looking into cameras and telling people I’m the best fighter in the world just to hear myself talk. I say it for the same reason they put warnings on packages of cigarettes, and fighting Chael Sonnen may be hazardous to one’s health.

Chael Sonnen

Alexander McQueen

All these boundaries – Africa, Asia, Malaysia, America – are set by men. But you don’t have to look at boundaries when you are looking at a man – at the character of a man. The question is: What do you stand for? Are you a follower, or are you a leader?

Hakeem Olajuwon

I’m an incurable optimist, and I’m a great believer in never looking back. Life is too short, and new challenges are exciting.

Cherie Blair

I love dressing up and I love looking good.

Jwala Gutta

Sharks will scare me. I went out to Malibu a couple of weeks ago. Beautiful, clear day, out in five feet of water, going to surf, and there was this big ol’ freakin’ leopard shark… I’m looking at him and I’m thinking, ‘OK, he won’t hurt me.’

Timothy Olyphant

Pharmacology is benefited by the prepared mind. You need to know what you are looking for.

Siddhartha Mukherjee

There are always those ‘Gossip Girl’ walk-and-talk scenes where you’re walking and just talking about life and death. You’re having a serious conversation, looking someone in the eye, but everywhere around you, it’s literally a circus.

Chace Crawford

I’m not searching for the meaning of life, but I’m looking for a meaning within my life.

David Lowery

Rick Rubin

Men don’t come up to you to just talk. We come up to you with a plan. We’re looking across the room at you, and we don’t care about your hopes and dreams. We don’t care about what your future holds. We saw something we wanted.

Steve Harvey

Light knows when you’re looking at it.

James Turrell

Diana Nyad

I absorbed as many Impressionist paintings as I could, in Parisian museums and in many museums in the United States and in books, looking for clues to architecture, clothing, settings.

Susan Vreeland

The Soviet Union represents a threat in terms of might. It is a joke in terms of its economy and what it has to offer the Third World – a laughingstock to countries that are looking for an economic-development model.

Jack Kemp

That’s the funny thing about time. It is only in looking back that it’s easy to connect the dots. To see exactly why everything needed to happen the way that it did.

Rebecca Serle

One of things I like about looking at pictures when you’re young and also meeting back with old friends you haven’t seen in a long time is, for me, it’s a glimpse of who I was.

Lea Thompson

Susie Dent

I stop wanting what I am looking for, looking for it.

Antonio Porchia

Looking back, I’m really happy with the choices I’ve made in my career. I know for a fact I could be wealthier. Who knows, maybe I could be more successful, maybe not. I don’t know. But just about every single thing I’ve ever done I’ve gone into with the right intentions, and that goes a long way.

Paul Rudd

I flee from symbols. I think those who don’t want to solve problems go to the symbols. I’m looking for content.

Dread, which is closely related to fear, steals the ability to enjoy ordinary life and makes people anxious about the future. It keeps them from looking forward to the next day, the next month, or the next decade.

Joyce Meyer

Modern man is in crisis. He has degenerated from the redoubtable pillar he became through centuries of refinement and slipped resignedly into the popular depiction of himself as a witless under-achiever, incapable of looking after himself or those around him.

James May

Don Johnson

I love this life. I feel like I am always catching my breath and saying, ‘Oh! Will you look at that?’ Photography has been my way of bearing witness to the joy I find in seeing the extraordinary in ordinary life. You don’t look for pictures. Your pictures are looking for you.
