Remain open-minded, even when you believe yourself to be a king among peasants. You never know what blessings can be gained or crises averted just by listening.

The hits always wind up being the songs with big, high choruses. They’re the ones too high to sing every night – not that you’ll ever, ever hear me complain about having to try.

I think it’s easier than ever to hear only what you want to hear. That doesn’t make a good citizen.

I really like books that you can kind of hear as much as think about, that are so graphic and visual.

What I am trying to get across to you; is please take of yourselves and those that you love; because that is what we are hear for, that’s all we got, and that is all we can take with us. Are you with me?

When you hear ‘Truth of Touch,’ I believe you recognize that it is me; however it’s not the typical Yanni album.

I used to hold back because people would get offended, but now I’m like, ‘You’re going to hear me, regardless. Whether you accept what I have to say or not is on you.’

This is life, we look but we don’t see,and we hear but we don’t learn.

Probably some of the songs I never even really listened to the lyrics. Half of them I’d hear off the radio and was probably singing the wrong words and didn’t even know it.

When people say I look intimidating, it’s hard for me to relate to. I hear that a lot. I don’t know why.

I love you,” and I couldn’t even tell if she was 300 miles away, or 6 feet below my feet and 300 years away.

We see and hear about Israelis and Palestinians only when they are defined by the global media as ‘occupiers,’ ‘terrorists,’ and ‘victims.’ But we forget that they are fathers and mothers and sons and daughters and neighbors and doctors and shop-owners and farmers and students.

Confidence is seen, not heard.

I want to play in a place people want to hear me.

People are stunned to hear that one company has data files on 185 million Americans.

An advice is truly valuable when people not just give it their ears but also their obedience.

As co-chair of the Iraqi Women’s Caucus in the House, I’ve enjoyed the opportunity to collaborate with and hear from Iraqi women elected to serve in the new National Assembly.

Any conversations we hear about ‘So who are Pearl Jam marketing to?’ are despicable.

We sometimes hear the argument, ‘All the world’ thinks this, or does that, given as a reason for our doing likewise; but that is an argument that should have no weight with the Christian, who is commanded not to be conformed to the world.

When I was 14, I thought I looked terrible. I wore these typical Slavic shoes with metal bottoms so you could always hear me coming and this really ugly princess skirt and blouse with the top button closed. I had a boy haircut, a baby face covered with pimples, and a really big nose.

Pakistan now is like a horror film franchise. You know, it’s ‘Friday the 13th, Episode 63: The Terrorist from Pakistan.’ And each time we hear of Pakistan it’s in that context.

We’ve always had to worry about the electrical grid and nuclear facilities, and they remain a concern; but cyber-terrorism, you know, which is a word that you hear more and more, I think is a reality.

I’ve been known to throw watermelons, backstage, at people who are giving me news I don’t want to hear. But I never aim for the head.

Nobody can pretend to know what people want to read or hear or see. People rarely know it themselves; they only know it after the fact.

You have the core hip-hop, which would just be beats and breaks, more something like what you hear with DJ Premier. Then you get into the more highly produced hip-hop, which is something like what DJ Khaled does. But at some point, it starts to get kind of pop.

Even without seeing the crickets, grasshoppers, cicadas and katydids, we hear them shrilling in this season and trust that they’re the tiny living gargoyles entomologists claim.

The Blues scene now is international. In the ’50s it was purely something that you would hear in black clubs, played by black musicians, especially in America. But from the ’60s onwards it changed.

When people say to me, ‘You make us proud,’ it’s heartwarming to hear that.

People get all up in arms when I describe myself as a crip because what they hear is the word ‘cripple,’ and they hear a word you’re not allowed to say anymore.

I understand,” she said. It was that, of course, that pierced him as if she had stabbed him through the heart. To him it was the sound of lost faith and it was unendurable. He felt he’d become a kind of god in her eyes, and it was simply impossible to give up her adoration.

My grandfather can barely even hear, and Chevy Chase makes a face, and he laughs.

So, it didn’t do well. But now when I talk to kids who are first seeing it, they’re surprised to hear the movie failed at the box office. Sometimes that’s what happens.

It is fascinating to watch legislators turn away from their usual corporate grips when they hear the growing thunder of the people.

I realized in the early days I just didn’t edit at all. But I think you become a little more cagey with your lyrics when you know more people are going to hear them and make assumptions about you as a person. Realizing that, you want to be a little more opaque.

Go ahead, weathercasters and reporters: Tell Americans precisely what we don’t want to hear: namely, that our self-indulgent, carbon-heavy, gluttonous and disposable lifestyle is precisely what is churning up the angry response from the skies and seas.

I don’t necessarily want to know what people are saying when I’m not around, especially if it’s about me. I just don’t need to hear extra garbage.
