I get to the theatre in plenty of time; I prepare my shoes in advance; I eat and drink the right things at the right time. The rest you have to leave to luck!
Deborah Bull

I had innumerable analysts who came to me in apology that the world that we were finding was not the world that they had thought existed and that they had estimated. Reality on the ground differed in advance.
David Kay

Winthrop Rockefeller

I have never wavered from my intention to advance the cause of diversity in new and more effective ways.

I look forward to working with our leadership team to advance the causes of smaller government, lower taxes, eliminating terrorism, and providing affordable health care, among other issues.

I prefer to play and lose rather than win, because I know in advance I'm going to win.
Eric Cantona

I thank you in advance for the great round of applause I'm about to get.

I think recordings have been a terrific advance because now, when you have a piece of music, particularly something that appears to the listener very complicated, there's really a push to the world to try to figure out what it was that he was hearing.

I was critical of the Israeli government, however, for not being prepared for the move. One does not uproot thousands of people without planning in advance what will be done with them. This was a political and human error in which the government functioned poorly.

I was never informed in advance about the start of the war or about foreign political developments.
Fritz Sauckel

Hideki Tojo

I would say keep supporting space flight, keep telling the public and the politicians why it's important to advance science and explore the galaxy. I encourage the Japanese to keep doing what they're doing.
Leroy Chiao

I'm publicizing the book that's done. I'm writing the book that's in the hopper, and I'm doing a little advance research on the book to come.
Ann Rule

If I had a plot that was all set in advance, why would I want go through the agony of writing the novel? A novel is a kind of exploration and discovery, for me at any rate.
Chaim Potok

If I planned everything out in advance, I'd expire of boredom.
Peter Straub

If there is technological advance without social advance, there is, almost automatically, an increase in human misery.
