Don’t accept the available as the preferable. Go extra mile with extra speed.

A song is fire. You react to it primally, instantly. You don’t have to decide whether you like it, and you don’t really have to sit down and think about it much after you’re done...

I don’t have proper places to run.

In the aftermath of 9/11 and in the build-up to the invasion of Iraq, few questioned the idea that the United States was likely to be the extant superpower for several decades to come. Few...

Any system that sees aesthetics as irrelevant, that separates the artist from his product, that fragments the work of the individual, or creates by committee, or makes mincemeat of the creative process will, in the...

I spent the day running through the woods like a wild animal. Being chased by you is the only thing that would have made it more romantic.

If you fail to pay your minimums for any debt on time, your credit score will take a major hit and you run the risk of seeing the interest rate on all of your cards...

Tension, in the long run, is a more dangerous force than any feud known to man.

I want to be an actor, and I am being an actor. I’m not ready to run off on a road trip. Yet.

I want to sprint into her open arms, but I run as fast as two shoes tied together and thrown over a telephone wire. I’m like Roger Bannister, now that he’s in a wheelchair.

Drop down someone else’s shoe and run to take your own quickly. Don’t hire your own to anybody, else it profits you nothing! Brighten the corner where you are. Yes, you can!

His name was Chase, so of course I ran after him. I wasn’t stalking, I was giving name.

I feel like I’m always on the go, I’m always on the run.

Minnesotans really think they run the whole world, I love that.

I have either run private equity funded companies or been a partner in a private equity fund since 1982. I’ve had a front row view of the vital role private equity continues to play in...

I run around, I listen to a lot of music, go to a lot of concerts. And when I see someone that gases me, I try to go out of my way to involve them...

Many Chinese companies are run like military camps with military discipline. We do not run a company that way. It does not help the creative process.

Now in the 21st century, the boundaries separating chemistry, physics, and medicine have become blurred, and as happened during the Renaissance, scientists are following their curiosities even when they run beyond the formal limits of...

Wouldn’t it help Americans more, in the long run, if we were forced to accept some responsibility for the environmental wreckage we prefer to assume is totally out of our control?

I was a huge comic book fan. It’s weird because the era of ‘Marvel’ I was into turns out to be very important in the long run, but it’s not the one that anybody romanticizes.

My past is trying to catch up to me and I must continue run from it. It’s the only way I can live.

Linux is its own worst enemy: it’s splintered, it has different distributions, it’s too complex to run for most people.
