Richard Rogers If I'm playing a violin thing, for instance, I tend to respond to that sound with the way I finger. Andy Summers If my children do not behave according to Islam, if they do not pray for instance, I will punish them. Abu Bakar Bashir If you go to Japan for instance, you should know that they have a different way of playing Beethoven or Brahms. But if you play with them Mozart, Debussy, Mendelssohn, they have a wonderful light feeling for that. Kurt Masur If you travel to the States... they have a lot of different words than like what we use. For instance: they say 'elevator', we say 'lift'; they say 'drapes', we say 'curtains'; they say 'president', we say 'seriously deranged git.' Alexei Sayle If you'll think about various series you've read, can you think of any instance in which, say, the tenth volume of the series is notably better than the first nine? I can't. Thomas Perry In France, for instance, one magazine writer was convinced that On The Road had been a huge influence on Lost Souls and was crushed to learn that I hadn't read the one until after I'd written the other. Poppy Z. Brite In general, the philological movement opened up countless sources relevant to linguistic issues, treating them in quite a different spirit from traditional grammar; for instance, the study of inscriptions and their language. But not yet in the spirit of linguistics. Ferdinand de Saussure In horror movies today it's lots of fast cut shot and lots of loud noises on the soundtrack. I tried to do the opposite. Playing with silence for instance. Alejandro Amenabar In no instance have... the churches been guardians of the liberties of the people. James Madison In no instance is there to be a musical or opera of Inherit the Wind because it doesn't sing. It's an intellectual play. Jerome Lawrence In the first instance, therefore, global terrorism created a kind of global community sharing a common fate, something we had previously considered impossible. Ulrich Beck Instead of yelling and spanking, which don't work anyway, I believe in finding creative ways to keep their attention - turning things into a game, for instance. And, when they do something good, positive reinforcement and praise. Patricia Richardson It depends who the director is you know, I mean Ken Loach for instance. I've done up to 32 takes with him. Robert Carlyle It is a sign of a dull nature to occupy oneself deeply in matters that concern the body; for instance, to be over much occupied about exercise, about eating and drinking, about easing oneself, about sexual intercourse. David Bailey It is instructive, for instance, to trace the computer industry's decline in vision, idealism, creativity, romance and sheer fun as it becomes more and more important and prosperous. Robert Shea It is safest to take the unpopular side in the first instance. Transit from the unpopular is easy... but from the popular to the unpopular is so steep and rugged that it is impossible to maintain it. William Lamb Melbourne Jazz is known all over the world as an American musical art form and that's it. No America, no jazz. I've seen people try to connect it to other countries, for instance to Africa, but it doesn't have a damn thing to do with Africa. Art Blakey Just as we have had great working lives, we have also had good personal lives. For instance, we have made school our number one priority. We have been in school our entire lives with kids our own age. We guess that's pretty regular. Mary-Kate Olsen Just the concept of personal freedom within a democracy, for instance, is a relatively young idea - only about 300 years old in this country. Daniel Greenberg |
