It's important for people to realize I don't want to be the It guy. I want to crawl before I walk. I want to learn about things before I jump into them.
Carson Daly

Ben Stein

Jump off cliffs and build your wings on the way down.
Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury

Life in the twentieth century is like a parachute jump: you have to get it right the first time.
Margaret Mead

Look, I don't want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colorfully, or you're not alive.
Mel Brooks

Mama exhorted her children at every opportunity to 'jump at the sun.' We might not land on the sun, but at least we would get off the ground.
Zora Neale Hurston

Tori Amos

My best move is probably my pull up jump shot.
Steve Nash

Narcissism and self-deception are survival mechanisms without which many of us might just jump off a bridge.

Of all the toys available, none is better designed than the owner himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to move in almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it makes a sound when you jump on it.
Stephen Baker

Once I decide to do something, I can't have people telling me I can't. If there's a roadblock, you jump over it, walk around it, crawl under it.
Kitty Kelley

One of the reasons I love to jump back and forth between mediums is that film does allow me to be more literal. I can go to the real place. I can go to the Coliseum, and I don't have to fake it.
Julie Taymor

People who jump to conclusions rarely alight on them.
Philip Guedalla

She's not happy about the life she is living but to jump through the hoop would mean to succumb to death.
Kit Williams

Sometimes I want to clean up my desk and go out and say, respect me, I'm a respectable grown-up, and other times I just want to jump into a paper bag and shake and bake myself to death.
Wendy Wasserstein

Sometimes you're trapped in writing songs and you don't have enough distance from what you do anymore and you need the talent and the years of other people to come and jump in.
