I learned something from that. If someone asks me something that I really don't want to do I say no. I have to trust that. And I'm not afraid to talk money.

I've learned to trust myself to listen to truth to not be afraid of it and to not try and hide it.

I learned you can't trust the judgment of good friends.

The chief lesson I have learned in a long life is that the only way you can make a man trustworthy is to trust him and the surest way to make him untrustworthy is to distrust him.

A lot of people would be embarrassed to admit that they were on 'Barney' but I embrace the fact. I just had such a wonderful time doing that show. I learned what a camera and prop is and all that. I learned my manners too so I guess that's a good thing!

The first time you say something it's heard. The second time it's recognized and the third time it's learned.

The boys of my people began very young to learn the ways of men and no one taught us we just learned by doing what we saw and we were warriors at a time when boys now are like girls.

I'm convinced that the man who has learned to meditate upon the Lord will be able to run on his feet and walk in his spirit. Although he may be hurried by his vocation that's not the issue. The issue is how fast his spirit is going. To slow it down takes a period of time.

It's been quite a roller coaster ride but I've grown and learned a lot about myself. The greatest thing is being able to interact with fans and touch people's lives... for that I give thanks.

I have good relationships with Hillary Clinton Joseph Biden and especially Richard Holbrooke - he is my teacher. I learned a lot of great things from him.

My father also happened to be an intellectual as learned literate informed and curious as anyone I have known. Unobtrusively and casually he was my wise and gentle teacher.

He was very commanding and you had to know what you were doing to work for Mr. Rogers. I learned how to ride very quickly with him as my riding teacher.

Both my grandmothers had upright pianos and I just knew how to play since I was a child. Nobody taught me. I sounded like a grown-up and then I learned how to read music. I played so well by ear I could fool the teacher to believe I could play the notes. She'd make the mistake of playing the song once and I could play it.

I'm sure any vocal teacher that listens to me would rather cut my throat than do anything - I do everything all wrong - but I think for me that's the best - because I don't think I have a voice so I think what I project would be style - if I learned to sing I'd lose my style.

As a student I learned from wonderful teachers and ever since then I've thought everyone is a teacher.

I started the class late. The teacher said I would have to learn as much in half a year that the others learned in a year. I did it.

I'm blessed with a good pair of ears. That's how I fooled my piano teacher. I'd watch his fingers and I'd listen to it and I just kind of basically learned it by myself.

I have learned silence from the talkative toleration from the intolerant and kindness from the unkind yet strange I am ungrateful to those teachers.

Grief is a normal and natural response to loss. It is originally an unlearned feeling process. Keeping grief inside increases your pain.

I've learned it's always better to have a small percentage of a big success than a hundred percent of nothing.

I've learned that success comes in a very prickly package. Whether you choose to accept it or not is up to you.

I've learned that mistakes can often be as good a teacher as success.

Part of my strength as an actor comes from what I've learned all these years: when you play a villain you try to get the light touches when you play a hero you try to get in some of the warts.

I learned that it is the weak who are cruel and that gentleness is to be expected only from the strong.
