Universal peace sounds ridiculous to the head of an average family.

Hope like faith is nothing if it is not courageous it is nothing if it is not ridiculous.

I met Ashley two weeks before I married him. It was a joke-the most ridiculous thing I've ever done. Once I was married I didn't want to be a failure so I stuck it out for six months which was about six months too long.

Divorce is so common and accepted in America that beating myself up over it may sound ridiculous. But I was raised to believe that divorce wasn't an option to me divorce equaled failure. I wasn't able to change that equation until I found myself in the right relationship.

I am totally against the idea that a Muslim woman should not have the same opportunities as a Muslim man to learn to open up to work help shape the future. To close Islam down to a sexist approach is totally intolerable and ridiculous. It's not Islam.

I tell people I'm too stupid to know what's impossible. I have ridiculously large dreams and half the time they come true.

I'm a dad now and whatever I'm doing in life I usually put a lot of effort into it - usually too much effort so it kind of comes off ridiculous at times.

That is where the irony of the film comes off in terms of the language it employs - where he tries desperately to be a 'TV Dad ' to give advice and it's so pat it becomes ridiculous.

My dad was always such a frustrated artist. He always worked very hard to support his family doing a bunch of ridiculous jobs. He wanted to be a painter but then he also wrote science-fiction novels in his spare time.

They very seldom let me lose my cool. They made me like I was Polly Perfect which was ridiculous so that when I bump into kids on the street they'd say 'I wish my Mom were like you.'

As tempting as it seems to wear tennis shoes with your tux don't do it. I think it looks ridiculous. If you're 14 years old maybe give it a shot. In general don't portray anything that says 'I'm too cool and I don't care.'

We were racing at circuits where there were no crash barriers in front of the pits and fuel was lying about in churns in the pit lane. A car could easily crash into the pits at any time. It was ridiculous.

My first car I got it in an auction at my temple. It was an '86 Volvo that I got for 500 bucks and then wound up throwing $10 000 into the stereo system and put TVs in the foot rests. It was the most ridiculous Volvo you'd ever seen but I had never had money before and I was out of my mind.

When I jumped off a roof in Cannes in a bee costume I looked ridiculous. But this is my business I have to humiliate myself.

Perhaps it sounds ridiculous but the best thing that young filmmakers should do is to get hold of a camera and some film and make a movie of any kind at all.

Here in L.A. the standard of beauty is kind of ridiculous. I want to be doing this when I'm in my fifties and sixties and this isn't what I'm going to look like.

After 'Freaks and Geeks ' I dealt with several producers who wanted to cover up all my beauty marks every single mole on my body. They tried to cover them on my first two episodes of 'Dawson's Creek ' and it just looked ridiculous so I had to put my foot down. But it's not something I'm insecure about.

I think beauty comes from within and society paints a ridiculous picture.

What is sacred among one people may be ridiculous in another and what is despised or rejected by one cultural group may in a different environment become the cornerstone for a great edifice of strange grandeur and beauty.

It was one of those evenings when men feel that truth goodness and beauty are one. In the morning when they commit their discovery to paper when others read it written there it looks wholly ridiculous.

Imperfection is beauty madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.

I have this theory that depending on your attitude your life doesn't have to become this ridiculous charade that it seems so many people end up living.

If anger proceeds from a great cause it turns to fury if from a small cause it is peevishness and so is always either terrible or ridiculous.

The great thing about celebrity culture is that they can't seem to stop themselves from displaying their ridiculous behaviour. I feel it's my job as a serious investigative journalist to witness all kinds of behaviour and then report back to the audience through the prism of my own anger and bitterness.
