Gilbert K. Chesterton The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried. Gilbert K. Chesterton The challenge for me has first been to see things as they are, whether a portrait, a city street, or a bouncing ball. In a word, I have tried to be objective. Berenice Abbott Whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do it well; whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself completely; in great aims and in small I have always thoroughly been in earnest. Charles Dickens Electricity can be dangerous. My nephew tried to stick a penny into a plug. Whoever said a penny doesn't go far didn't see him shoot across that floor. I told him he was grounded. Tim Allen I tried real hard to play golf, and I was so bad at it they would have to check me for ticks at the end of the round because I'd spent about half the day in the woods. Jeff Foxworthy There have been times when I have deliberately tried to take my life... I think I must have been crying for some attention. Judy Garland You just have to keep trying to do good work, and hope that it leads to more good work. I want to look back on my career and be proud of the work, and be proud that I tried everything. Yes, I want to look back and know that I was terrible at a variety of things. Jon Stewart I've tried to lead a straight, clean life, not set any kind of a bad example. Elvis Presley I didn't hesitate to kiss my father in public. And that's how I tried to raise my children. We're physical. Payne Stewart Be not the first by whom the new are tried, Nor yet the last to lay the old aside. Alexander Pope In words, as fashions, the same rule will hold; Alike fantastic, if too new, or old: Be not the first by whom the new are tried, Nor yet the last to lay the old aside. Alexander Pope I tried marijuana once. I did not inhale. William J. Clinton I pictured myself as a virus or a cancer cell and tried to sense what it would be like. Jonas Salk I learned to draw everything except glamorous women. No matter how much I tried to make them look sexy, they always ended up looking silly... or like somebody's mother. Norman Rockwell I never thought I was normal, never tried to be normal. Charles Manson These children that come at you with knives, they are your children. You taught them. I didn't teach them. I just tried to help them stand up. Charles Manson I have tried to know absolutely nothing about a great many things, and I have succeeded fairly well. Robert Benchley It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded. Anne Morrow Lindbergh Killing Japanese didn't bother me very much at that time... I suppose if I had lost the war, I would have been tried as a war criminal. Curtis Lemay |
