I sort of missed one big thing, to touch first base. I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history.
Mark McGwire

I think the '60s were an extraordinary time. I feel bad for the kids today who missed this wonderful confluence, which was simultaneously a confluence of the global and the mythological.
Peter Coyote

I think the job of movie reviewing can be really tough. If a film has layers that need to be thought about, it's easy to get missed the first time around.
Roland Joffe

I used to cry myself to sleep every night. I missed singing so much. And performing. Man, I missed it so much.
Ronnie Spector

I was a daydreamer, and there is a lot of history and geography and science I missed out on because I was in my head. And I regret that.
Gillian Anderson

I was born in '74, so I missed out on all the great early '60s and early '70s.
Alanis Morissette

I was surprised to find that I missed doing the musical.
Delta Burke

I watched a couple of really bad directors work, and I saw how they completely botched it up and missed the visual opportunities of the scene when we had put things in front of them as opportunities. Set pieces, props and so on.
James Cameron

I wonder how often in the past I may have missed the good in people because I pre-judged, based on the differences?
Anne Perry

I'd had people say, "You'll enjoy being famous for a week, and you'll never enjoy it again". But I don't think I had that week. I may have been working and missed that moment.
Matt Damon

I'll match my flops with anybody's but I wouldn't have missed 'em.
Rosalind Russell

I'm also looking for gems that the average reader might have missed.
Terri Windling

I'm certainly not sorry that there were some things I missed. You may think you're missing something at that time but later when you look at it, you didn't miss anything.
Ivan Lendl

I've been a vegetarian for so long, I forgot how much I missed meat. You know you don't realize how important meat is to you until you don't have it for long time.
Brittany Daniel

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
Michael Jordan

I've never missed a gig yet. Music makes people happy, and that's why I go on doing it - I like to see everybody smile.
Buddy Guy

I've said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed.
B. B. King

If you have a procedure with 10 parameters, you probably missed some.
Alan Perlis

If you read quickly to get through a poem to what it means, you have missed the body of the poem.
M. H. Abrams

In other words, I think that if an audience listens to something as an experience of how in tune it is or something of that kind, that the whole point is somehow being missed, and the music has failed.
John Eaton
