I not only play at the prestigious classical concert halls like Carnegie Hall and Kennedy Center, but also hospitals, churches, prisons, and restricted facilities for leprosy patients, just to mention a few.

I use very few muscles at the best of times.

I conduct very few interviews with veterans. The contemporaneous, or near-contemporaneous, record for WWII is so spectacularly deep that latter-day recollections are largely unnecessary for a historian. Of course, in considering any account, I’m looking...

You must be one of the few people with a copy of that. I don’t think they printed too many.

Television in the last few years has been where all the great writers are going. TV now is what indie film used to be.

I became a Yankees fan for a few years. But now, I gotta say, I’m really rooting for the Red Sox.

If there ever was a religious war full of terror, it was the crusades. But you can’t blame Christianity because a few adventurers did this. That’s my message.

The truth is that we don’t need everyone to like us; we need a few people to love us. Because what’s better than being roundly liked is being fully known – an impossibility both professionally...

Handwritten political posters – often composed in an artless and unadorned style, usually just words on plain white paper – were ubiquitous in South Korea in the 1970s and 1980s and were one of the...

‘Ender’s Game’ is fantastic, and I’ve gotten to see quite a few bits, and I love the way it’s turned out.

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable application of high explosives.

I don’t bench press, but I use machines to work 10-12 muscle groups. Biceps, triceps, a few things for the back, calves, shoulders and so on – and then I’ll go on the running machine,...

Many children with cancer in the developing world can be cured. But without appropriate treatment, few survive.

When I’m writing, which is 8-9 months out of the year, I’m in a concerted writing pace, where I work 5 days a week for at least a few hours a day, maybe a little...

There are very few people that I deal with from a business side that it’s just strictly a one-sided business relationship. I think that’s important.

A few hours’ ride brought us to the banks of the river Kansas.

I went backwards and forwards over it until I was 22. And then in the past few years I began to say to myself, OK, look, I’m not messing around. This is something I want...

A spirit, breathing the language of independence, is natural to Englishmen, few of whom are disposed to brook compulsion, or submit to the dictates of others, when not softened by reason, or tempered with kindness.

I don’t mind being ridiculed – well, I guess I would mind a little, but it would only last a few minutes – it’s all very ephemeral; it doesn’t really matter what people think of...

I think that by and large chess players have been very kind. Like I said there have been a few incidents, but they certainly didn’t serve to bring me down any.

It took me a few years to explain to my colleagues and my mentors and the people that I looked up to and I wrestled that I’m not in wrestling anymore. I’m in sports entertainment....

It is not just for a few states to sit and veto global approvals.

Thousands of years and many civilizations have defined a marriage as the union between one man and one woman. With few exceptions, those civilizations that did not follow that perished.

As long as there’s a few farmers out there, we’ll keep fighting for them.

I’d never really experienced the West before moving to Colorado. The East Coast, where I grew up, has a lot of big cities, like Boston and New York, and is more densely populated, and I...

There are a few players who don’t like to think about the game.

The blues scale was the first thing I learned. It’s just a pentatonic scale with a flat seventh and a few notes that sound cool when you bend them. And because people have amalgamated the...

My stage name has always been ‘Armin van Buuren.’ When I really started DJ’ing professionally, I already had a few U.K. hits under my belt under the name ‘Armin’, so I couldn’t really change that...

When I tour, it’s like, well, like a food tour as much as a comedy tour. I try to eat at all the weird places, the obscure barbecue joints, burger places. There are a few...

No nation has embraced Total Quality Management, e-commerce and e-government with greater enthusiasm than Dubai. Such innovations have given Dubai a competitive edge and an accelerated growth rate that few could match.

There will always be a few people who just want to knock you down or are jealous or just want to be horrible for the sake of it. I don’t know what drives someone to...

Every few words you speak, every little help you offer and every small advice you give mass up tiny miracles that can change someone’s life forever!

I don’t know if Nashville will ever be ousted as the Music City. But I also think that here, over the last few years, Georgia has definitely kind of risen to the top as far...

Of-course we did, but we didn’t reply because we knew once this leaks the others will scatter, so in the few days we moved quickly before the press got hold of it. The press did...

When you do RAW or Wrestlemania or a PPV where there’s 10,000 people or more, you don’t necessarily look at the people. The only time there’s a realization that there’s that many people is when...

Few, save the poor, feel for the poor.

My father was a man of few words.
