I never understood the hit-single, quick-success, get-airplay mentality Picture Quote #1

I’m Asian-American, and I was the only Chinese girl growing up in a white school in San Diego. So I understood what it was like to be different, to always want to fit in and never feel like you ever could Picture Quote #1

The Olympic dream was born in 2010 during the qualifications to Vancouver. And when I was watching those Olympics from the sidelines, I felt that I wanted to have my Games. I understood that it wouldn’t be easy to make them, especially now that in Russia there are a lot of strong girls Picture Quote #1

I’ve never really understood attachment to a place for reasons of birth. That my mother happened to give birth to me in a certain place doesn’t, to my mind, justify any thankfulness towards that place. It could have been anywhere Picture Quote #1

The Polynesians used to have a system where they proclaimed a fishing area as ‘taboo.’ If any fisherman was caught fishing in a taboo area, they would be killed. The Polynesians understood that the fish had to be given a chance to recover Picture Quote #1

To understand and be understood, those are among life’s greatest gifts, and every interaction is an opportunity to exchange them Picture Quote #1

I’m not someone who is going to give in to a lot of pressure. I’ve always understood that everything is not always going to be good Picture Quote #1

The basic science is very well established; it is well understood that global warming is due to greenhouse gases. What is uncertain is projections about specifics in the next few decades, by how much will the climate change Picture Quote #1

Then as now, whatever disagreements over policies existed among Americans - and there were many such bitter policy disputes - the purposes and goals for which Americans fought were clearly understood Picture Quote #1

[The pioneers] woke up each morning with clearly defined purposes and goals that everyone understood: to serve God Picture Quote #1

Fear was a thing I understood all too well. It was a malignancy that had spread throughout my body until my mother, in her godly wisdom, had diagnosed and cauterized it Picture Quote #1

Nobody understood The Reoccurring Dream, but after September 11, when we were coerced to do a national duty and go out and shop, surely people could begin to see what I was getting at Picture Quote #1

What goes on inside a star is better understood than one might guess from the difficulty of having to look at a little dot of light through a telescope, because we can calculate what the atoms in the stars should do in most circumstances Picture Quote #1

I’ve been around golf my whole life. My father did it all the time, and I resented him for it. But a couple years ago I picked up a golf club and I understood the physics of it. If anyone knows anything about golf, it’s that once you hit a few shots, you’ll become addicted Picture Quote #1

I never understood the idea that you’re supposed to mellow as you get older. Slowing down isn’t something I relate to at all. The goal is to continue in good and bad, all of it Picture Quote #1

What good are laws that cannot be read or understood, or a tongue that spews only hatred or ignorance? What good is the written word to an illiterate man? Picture Quote #1

Photography was not invented to serve a clearly understood function. There was in fact widespread uncertainty, even among its inventors, as to what it might be good for Picture Quote #1

Once I started writing novels, I understood how hard it was to write really good short stories Picture Quote #1

Teachers teach and do the world good, Kings just rule and most are never understood Picture Quote #1

Google understood that if you’re just a search engine, people assume you’re a very, very good search engine Picture Quote #1

That our government should have been maintained in its original form from its establishment until now is not much to be wondered at.

Through that period, it was felt by all to be an undecided experiment; now, it is understood to be a successful one Picture Quote #1

More than anyone else, Adolf Hitler completely understood the union between government propaganda and between - and advertising, that they were in some ways the same thing Picture Quote #1

As the mind learns to understand more complicated combinations of ideas, simpler formulae soon reduce their complexity; so truths that were discovered only by great effort, that could at first only be understood by men capable of profound thought, are soon developed and proved by methods that are not beyond the reach of common intelligence. The strength and the limits of man Picture Quote #1

This is probably the single great subject of horror fiction: our need to cope with a mystery that can be understood only with the aid of a helpful imagination Picture Quote #1

Frank Schirrmacher’s passing is a great loss. Among the intellectuals, he, along with Friedrich Kittler, was the only one who understood the philosophical dimensions of the Internet Picture Quote #1

All great leaders have understood that their number one responsibility is cultivating their own discipline and personal growth. Those who cannot lead themselves cannot lead others Picture Quote #1

My parents both had a great sense of humor, and always laughed a lot. One night, when they were watching ‘Candid Camera,’ I finally understood what comedy was all about. I heard the laughter on television, I turned around and saw my parents laughing, and that’s when I thought: ‘This is great. This is what I can do. I’m gonna prank somebody.’ Picture Quote #1

Every individual is representative of the whole . . . and should be intimately understood, and this would give a far greater understanding of mass movements and sociology Picture Quote #1

I’ve always believed that government tends to screw up whatever it touches, but Obama in particular seemed different. He understood tech issues that left the other candidates bewildered. Part of it may be his age. But whatever the reason, I had real hope that he could help lead us into a new century of technology leadership and growth Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I understood guitar rock as well as I probably should have. I don’t think I understood bands like Led Zeppelin. In their era, everyone had such a regard for them because of them ushering in rock n’ roll and this larger-than-life lifestyle. But then they had these songs that would just not stop. I didn’t fully get it Picture Quote #1
