Yes my first memory of singing in general was of a Christmas song. And then listening to Christmas music was really the first music I was ever connected to.

A friend gave me a CD of the 'Pathetique' Symphony as a Christmas present. I went home and I put on the CD expecting to listen to Tchaikovsky. But it started 'ta ta ta taaa.' It was too long for me. I didn't understand it at first but then I fell in love in love in love.

The companies that make meaningful contributions while also listening to the voices of others are the ones that will genuinely engage their community who will then go to work for them.

Women have to be active listeners and interrupters - but when you interrupt you have to know what you are talking about.

Women priests. Great great. Now there's priests of both sexes I don't listen to.

True wisdom listens more talks less and can get along with all types of people.

Back of every mistaken venture and defeat is the laughter of wisdom if you listen.

The less you talk the more you're listened to.

Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you'd have preferred to talk.

We managed to put together a compilation that had some creativity to it. In the meantime I was listening to the free radio stations and I noticed that during their war coverage they were playing these songs born out of the Vietnam War that were all critical of the soldiers.

Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war... Each instinct if you listen to it will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest.

Listen friends you have to face the truth: You are never going to be rich... The system is rigged in favor of the few and your name is not among them not now and not ever.

You always want to go out there with the best book possible so I listen to what my editors say and even if they don't know how to fix it I always seem to find a way. 'Trust Your Eyes' is the best book I've written and I don't know if I can do any better.

We have fun we listen to one another we challenge one another we trust one another. We're doing what we enjoy and we're not just playing for each other we're playing for the people.

Jim Bakker came along. He said Jessica Hahn listen. You're a virgin. As God as my witness. He said We need a girl that we can trust.

You can't just trust to luck you have to really listen to what that character is telling you.

Trust your instincts: they tend to see you right. By listening to them at least you can sleep at night.

All I can hope to do is instill great morality in my son and trust him along the way. The music he listens to or how he chooses to wear his hair doesn't define his moral compass and if he wants to listen to country music and wear a cowboy hat too that's fine.

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

I don't listen to people's opinions. I have people around me who I can trust but most of all I listen to myself.

There are days when I intentionally don't write. For instance I never write when I'm traveling because travel is a situation where I can learn more by looking and listening than by working.

Sure I could give advice I could say travel the world listen to music. But all I can really say is do something you want to do and do it well. And if you want to be a choreographer then you have to make dances.

I try to forget about the expectation that's out there and the audience listening for the next thing so that I'm not trying to please them. I've spent a huge amount of time not communicating with those folks and denying that they exist.

Television is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time and yet remain lonesome.
