Events that are predestined require but little management. They manage themselves. They slip into place while we sleep and suddenly we are aware that the thing we fear to attempt is already accomplished.

To fear love is to fear life and those who fear life are already three parts dead.

One thing about being successful is that I stopped being afraid of dying. Once you're a star you're dead already. You're embalmed.

There are people who appear in the magazines and I don't know who they are. I've never seen anything they've done and their careers are over already. They're famous for maybe 10 minutes. Real careers I think take a long time to unfold.

The strangest part about being famous is you don't get to give first impressions anymore. Everyone already has an impression of you before you meet them.

While Free Choice Vouchers didn't fulfill my vision of a health care system in which every American would be empowered to hire and fire their insurance company they were a foothold for choice and competition and a safety valve for Americans whose employers are already forcing them to bear more and more of their family's health insurance costs.

While I have felt lonely many times in my life the oddest feeling of all was after my mother Lucille died. My father had already died but I always had some attachment to our big family while she was alive. It seems strange to say now that I felt so lonely yet I did.

The greenest home is the one you don't build. If you really want to save the Earth move in with another family and share a house that's already built. Better yet live in the forest and eat whatever the squirrels don't want.

You can't do opera when already from the 10th row you can only see little dolls on the stage. In such an enormous space you can't put much faith in the personal presence of the individual singer which is reflected in facial expressions among other things.

Do not tell secrets to those whose faith and silence you have not already tested.

Washington D.C. is what is broken not the immigration policies. We have good laws. We have people suffer every day because of government's failure to enforce the law and be respectful to the process we have. We have a pathway to citizenship already in place.

Experience already reduced to a group of impressions is ringed round for each one of us by that thick wall of personality through which no real voice has ever pierced on its way to us or from us to that which we can only conjecture to be without.

I don't think any good book is based on factual experience. Bad books are about things the writer already knew before he wrote them.

I haven't been as wild with my money as somebody like me might have been. I've been very safe very conservative with investments. I don't blow money. I don't have a ton of houses. I know things can go away. I've already had that experience.

Most people go through life dreading they'll have a traumatic experience. Freaks were born with their trauma. They've already passed their test in life. They're aristocrats.

Experience - the wisdom that enables us to recognise in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced.

I will feel equality has arrived when we can elect to office women who are as incompetent as some of the men who are already there.

What's really sad is that so many young women between the ages of 16 and 25 are ignorant and they already believe that women get the same pay as men. They don't even really understand that equality hasn't happened with the pay force.

I don't see this planet being... they're talking about how they're turning around the environmental problems here but I think it's already too late.

Well we lost a lot of our independence already. We are dependent on China for credit. We are dependent on Middle Eastern countries for energy supplies. And many Americans are dependent on the government for their income health care education of their children food stamps.

Everything that everyone is afraid of has already happened: The fragility of capitalism which we don't want to admit the loss of the empire of the United States and American exceptionalism. In fact American exceptionalism is that we are exceptionally backward in about fifteen different categories from education to infrastructure.

To me education is a leading out of what is already there in the pupil's soul. To Miss Mackay it is a putting in of something that is not there and that is not what I call education. I call it intrusion.

O reason reason abstract phantom of the waking state I had already expelled you from my dreams now I have reached a point where those dreams are about to become fused with apparent realities: now there is only room here for myself.

I'm very ambitious. I live in reality but I have dreams I want to fulfill - I want to be a director and I've already started my own production company. But I also have a measure of success that I keep to myself. It's something very personal to me.
