Text Quotes
My first book, ‘To Engineer Is Human,’ was prompted by nonengineer friends asking me why so many technological accidents and failures were occurring. If engineers knew what they were doing, why did bridges and buildings fall down? It was a question that I had often asked myself, and I had no easy answer.  (Asking Quotes) The real estate agent had to go door-to-door in the apartment building we wanted to rent, asking if it was OK for this interracial family - my mom is white and I was a 1-year-old half-African kid - to live in the apartment building.  (Asking Quotes) Your character is your destiny. Building character is a task for the brave and dedicated. There are no shortcuts when it comes to building character. If you wish to cure minimalism in your own life, to develop a complete commitment to excellence and an absolute rejection of mediocrity, the question you need to start asking yourself is, What is the most I can do?  (Asking Quotes) Soup’s on and I got a coupon. Chinese restaurant asking for the Grey Poupon. He said No, duck sauce, soy sauce... And this ain’t no Burger King, so you no get no toy, boss.  (Asking Quotes) It’s fun to get a message on the phone service that Lucille Ball or Burt Reynolds called, and play it very blase by asking, ‘Anyone else?’  (Asking Quotes) Many business leaders are asking fundamental questions about what business they’re in, why they are doing it and how it can be used as a means of healing human and natural communities.  (Asking Quotes) I stopped beating up on myself. I stopped asking myself why I didn’t sell this number of records, why I don’t have corporate sponsorship. I just don’t buy into any of that anymore.  (Asking Quotes) So many people chased after me in that time, calling my name, asking me to take them with me. Then there was the small percentage who called me casually over and whispered with their tightend voices.  (Asking Quotes) In the face of uncertainty, many companies will default to asking their innovators to study and analyze, which can’t actually ever provide a definitive answer.  (Asking Quotes) Don’t ask a writer what he’s working on. It’s like asking someone with cancer on the progress of his disease.  (Asking Quotes) No one is asking for an Oprah in Chief. Anyhow, Obama is too chilly by nature ever to be convincing as a human care package.  (Asking Quotes) Carrying the weight of a conditioned mind leaves little opportunity for the questions you should be asking.  (Asking Quotes) The way you challenge Superman is by having things happen very, very quickly in different places and then asking, ‘Who does he save first? What powers must he use to save each person or stop each disaster?’ That’s one of the ways you make him interesting beyond the thematic and moral issues that make Superman.  (Asking Quotes) The question is not, Is climate change happening? Nor is the question, Is climate change man-made? Rather, we need to realize itʼs already here, and start asking, What are we going to do about it?  (Asking Quotes) With every little bit of change we make in our lives, we can maximize that small change simply by asking ourselves: ‘What’s next? What can I do now? What additional responsibility can I take on?’  (Asking Quotes) When I was seven, I gave a letter to Cinderella in Disney World asking if I could be in a Disney movie. So, working for Disney was really a childhood dream come true.  (Asking Quotes) You know your children are growing up when they stop asking you where they came from and refuse to tell you where they’re going.  (Asking Quotes) All too rarely do I hear people asking just what it is that we’ve done to make so many children’s hearts so hard, or what collectively we might do to right their moral compass - what values we must live by.  (Asking Quotes) I don’t want fame as far as the tweeting or the image of it. But, the idea of being famous is actually exciting to me, just because then you can have a choice in what you do. I would like to be at a point where I’m not asking for parts anymore, and I’m actually just choosing between a part that I want to do.  (Asking Quotes) We learn many virtues in our Christian families. Above all, we learn to love, asking nothing in return.  (Asking Quotes) I`m asking you to make at least some of your Christmas giving important  (Asking Quotes) If I were a Catholic, I’d be asking what’s going on here. I really would. The pope also broke with his predecessors by suggesting that Catholic lawmakers are free to vote for same-sex marriage and civil unions.  (Asking Quotes) Some people make movies and think, Well, I’ll just keep asking for more money if this isn’t enough. And then there are other people, like Clint Eastwood, who always come in under budget.  (Asking Quotes) People are so afraid of hearing No that they often don’t even try. You have nothing to lose by just asking! A good friend of mine once told me, Harv, a closed mouth won’t get fed. Open your mouth! Say something if negotiations aren’t going the way you’d like.  (Asking Quotes) My fans kept asking where they could get clothes like ‘Destiny’s Child’s’, so it was only natural for us to do a clothing line. I was adamant about not putting my name on something that I didn’t love.  (Asking Quotes) The U.N. bureaucracy has grown to elephantine proportions. Now that the Cold War is over, we are asking that elephant to do gymnastics.  (Asking Quotes) G.E. doesn’t pay any taxes, and we are asking college kids to take on even more debt to get an education and asking seniors to get by on less. These aren’t just economic questions. These are moral questions.  (Asking Quotes) We have such a high drop-out rate from musicians, said the head of the college. He was right - I dropped out before I even dropped in. Months later they were still asking what had happened to me, not realising that I was on a UK tour.  (Asking Quotes) I’m so scared of doing theater. I’ve got stage fright, although they keep asking me to come back.  (Asking Quotes) I did a ‘Last Comic Standing’ audition in 2006, where you’re just performing for three people in a comedy club, in a big comedy club, and I remember them cutting me off, asking about my name in the middle of one of my jokes. Yeah, it’s just real weird when you’re doing stand-up in that type of sterile, unnatural setting.  (Asking Quotes)
