I really think that technology has the greatest potential to accelerate happiness of most things in the world. The companies that will ultimately do well are the companies that chase happiness. If you find a way to help people find love, or health or friendship, the dollar will chase that.
Ultimately, if you can say that I’m a bad owner and we’re winning championships, I can live with that.

Adele ultimately did well in such a large way because she affects everybody, and the way that she writes seems to be popular music, not because of her skin color but because she writes great music, and it’s popular in that way.
The whole macho thing has to be reexamined. Because in my view, the Bush administration was weak, not strong. To engage in a policy of torture is a weak policy. Because ultimately, it encourages the terrorists. It undermines our own values. It corrupts our system. And it doesn’t get good intelligence.
Values are principles and ideas that bring meaning to the seemingly mundane experience of life. A meaningful life that ultimately brings happiness and pride requires you to respond to temptations as well as challenges with honor, dignity, and courage.

To use the same words is not a sufficient guarantee of understanding; one must use the same words for the same genus of inward experience; ultimately one must have one’s experiences in common.

It’s true, I’m the youngest, highest-grossing French director. I have a few records, but no one knows or simply doesn’t care. That’s good, because I like that.

The interesting part of my spiritual life is studying as much as you can. Islam and Buddhism and Hinduism and Shamanism and Judaism, Christianity – you try to learn what the precepts are, what the religion is, and ultimately, it’s based in the same thought, it’s based in the same outcome, you know.
Ultimately, I’d love to be able to work in film.

But as an adult working in the fashion industry, I struggle with materialism. And I’m one of the least materialistic people that exist, because material possessions don’t mean much to me.

I just ultimately wanted to be a mother. I love children.
If you’re naturally a certain size, I think it suits you and you can see that. There’s no point in trying to conform for the sake of it. People are meant to be different shapes, and their different shapes are so interesting and, ultimately, why people fall in love with them.
Ultimately, the reason privacy is so vital is it’s the realm in which we can do all the things that are valuable as human beings. It’s the place that uniquely enables us to explore limits, to test boundaries, to engage in novel and creative ways of thinking and being.

There are photographers who don’t really engage with their subject. It’s a really unfortunate phrase, but they take their photo and they leave with it. It works but I think it ultimately limits how profound the work can be.

Ultimately it doesn’t matter whether you go forwards or backwards: you need to live your life as well as you can.
When you first read a script is the purest moment. That’s when you can understand how an audience will ultimately receive it. The first reading of the script is so important because you’re experiencing it all for the first time, and it’s then that you really know if it’s going to work or not.
The Senate are a branch of the treaty-making power, and by consulting them in advance of his own action upon important measures of foreign policy which may ultimately come before them for their consideration, the President secures harmony of action between that body and himself.

Buddhism is really, one of its main practices is understanding and experiencing compassion, and how that ultimately is a road to happiness.
It doesn’t matter what you feel – ultimately, it’s what the audience feels. You can finish a scene and think to yourself, ‘Oh, God. I was so deep in that moment,’ and find it just didn’t play. I don’t know if I have very good radar about that or not.
There’s sort of a persistent misperception that talking about race is black folk‘s burden. Ultimately, only men can end sexism, and only white people can end racism.
History proves abundantly that pure science, undertaken without regard to applications to human needs, is usually ultimately of direct benefit to mankind.
Ultimately, the court is heading to a doctrine of ‘separation of campaign and state.’ This doctrine, like separation of church and state or separation of military and civilian authority, is not explicit in the Constitution but flows naturally from its structure and commitment to freedom and democracy.
It’s easy to get sidetracked with technology, and that is the danger, but ultimately you have to see what works with the music and what doesn’t. In a lot of cases, less is more. In most cases, less is more.
Mind is the great lever of all things; human thought is the process by which human ends are ultimately answered.
Ultimately, political order does not generate itself.
A dirty player is somebody who ultimately is trying to hurt somebody. There’s a huge difference. There’s no gray in that. Like, you have no conscience, no nothing, no guilt. I don’t have that mean streak in me. I don’t play angry. It’s not anger.
But, at the same time, I think that there is room for economic stimulus in terms of accelerated depreciation to encourage businesses to invest and to grow and ultimately to hire more people again.
My son tried to work in films and he ultimately gave it up, he finally couldn’t make a living, he couldn’t support himself. He worked all the time and he didn’t make enough money to have a house, have an apartment.

As much as I thought the end of ‘Friday Night Lights‘ was a really great ending, I was one of those people who wanted to make it into a movie. Even though it ultimately didn’t work to do that movie, I did work with some of the other writers and by myself writing a script for that.
Crisis alone is not enough. There must also be a basis, though it need be neither rational nor ultimately correct, for faith in the particular candidate chosen.
Ultimately, China may use force to push for unification with Taiwan, a scenario we all must work to prevent.
You’ve just got to trust your instincts and realize that you can’t please all the people all the time. You’ve got to please yourself ultimately in the end.
All of us, ultimately, we’re not that interesting, when it comes down to it.
You go and do what you do to prepare the best you can and then come out and give it what you’ve got. That’s ultimately all you can do.
When I began to choreograph and find my way pulling other artists’ dreams out and changing music in a visual way, there was still a part of me that had something more to say. There was still a desire to rock a stage and ultimately perform the eight count of my dream, but there was a lot of insecurity there.
It could be said that all armed conflicts are a ludicrous and shameful waste of lives, but World War I has a special place in the history of futility – a war without clear purpose, a war whose resolution would ultimately make the world a far worse place.
We can speak about the institution, but ultimately the bar is the group that both is in touch with the public on the one hand and understands the judicial institution on the other.
Ultimately, there’s always been a link between comic books and video games, and comic books and movies, and then basically all three steadily becoming this sort of transmedia.
My kids would probably say that I’m too strict. They probably would say that, and I try not to be, but I’m probably more on the conservative end of that. At the same time, I know full well that ultimately I don’t really have control over them.
If the movie’s well made and it’s about things that count, people will ultimately see the depth in it.
I think you really have to remember what you loved about making music in the first place. Ultimately, people can be like, ‘We’ve seen this dude in many movies,’ but if they hear a song and they’re feeling it, they can look past all the personal things and not hold it against you that you’re also an actor.
Ultimately, the problem is that sex is perceived as a personal, intimate thing, not in the realm of science. But that’s not true. It’s physiology; it’s anatomy. It deserves to be studied.
Everybody talks about wanting to change things and help and fix, but ultimately all you can do is fix yourself. And that’s a lot. Because if you can fix yourself, it has a ripple effect.
I think that ultimately any effective drama or tragedy tries to put you as much as it can into the protagonist‘s shoes.
Ultimately, there is no compromise. Westerners will either retain their civilization, including the right to insult and blaspheme, or not.
I think that’s something that people feel that I do really well; I don’t mind it, because ultimately I think the characters I play move people, and who wouldn’t want to move people?
Peace is not wimpy. It’s about sitting down and negotiating with people you hate. Ultimately, all occupation ends, and you have to deal with the enemy.
The fact that people are able to be positively impacted by any of my work is really just a blessing. And ultimately, that’s what I want to do.

Well, the thing that I learned as a diplomat is that human relations ultimately make a huge difference.
I am emphatically against the privatization of Social Security. It is going to hurt millions of American women, American families and ultimately the whole country.

If you fear making anyone mad, then you ultimately probe for the lowest common denominator of human achievement.
All the time, you’re going into your modeling agency and they’re taking Polaroids of you in a bathing suit. It was not something that was wonderful for me. It offered a lot of really great opportunities for me. But ultimately, it’s a hard job because it’s based solely on what your body looks like, what you look like.
I think the fall in Eden was ultimately a failure to give thanks.
Technologies like PayPal foster competition because they enable people to shift their funds from one jurisdiction to another, and I think that ultimately will lead to a world in which there’s less government power and therefore more individual control.
Slums could be thought of as the development of a special organ, or they could be thought of as a tumor that’s grown, and in some ways is unhealthy and could ultimately lead to the city’s destruction. My own feeling is that slums are probably a bit of both.
You can’t please everyone, but I’ve always felt you cannot ultimately lose if you give everything you try 110%. You’ll always learn something useful, even from a failure, that can be applied to the next challenge or project.
Ultimately, a real understanding of history means that we face nothing new under the sun.
There’s nothing like suffering to remind us how not in control we actually are, how little power we ultimately have, and how much we ultimately need God.
‘Younger’ is about reinvention and how age is very much a state of mind. I think the show is ultimately about reinvention. I do think it explores, ultimately, the differences between generations, through the prism of reinvention. That reinvention is possible.
I wouldn’t sacrifice my business for no acting career because my business is something, ultimately, that I know I’m going to pass down to my kids, and that’s most important to me than anything else in the world. I can’t pass an acting career down to my children.
So ultimately, it’s idealistic to think that artists are able to step away from the power of the media and the way it controls things, and go on doing their own things.
The physicality of a real relationship – one that encompasses mind, body and soul – ultimately makes it more fulfilling and powerful than any virtual relationship ever could be.

The excitement that you were feeling about a special, unique path for yourself as a woman is all part of your identification with and attachment to being female. And that’s ultimately all ego.
Timing is a very important part of being a father. You should never show your kids things before they’re ready. Especially with movies. Toys like Lego are okay because the fact that your 3-year-old can’t understand the instructions ultimately leads you to constructing it yourself… the secret plan all along.
Television is ultimately a business of failure. You try a lot of things, and most of it fails.
Whatever is funny is subversive, every joke is ultimately a custard pie… a dirty joke is a sort of mental rebellion.
I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don’t do anything that outlandish anyway.
Ultimately, my Ph.D. is in mathematical physics, focusing on quantum field theory and curved space-time, and I worked with Stephen Hawking.
I don’t think I tell stories of tragedy. I think I tell stories of love.

And yes, you’ve been through the tragedy, but it’s ultimately hope that I think you’re left with.
There is a basic lesson on financial crises that governments tend to wait too long, underestimate the risks, want to do too little. And it ultimately gets away from them, and they end up spending more money, causing much more damage to the economy.

I am no longer afraid of becoming lost, because the journey back always reveals something new, and that is ultimately good for the artist.
The right question to ask from a Darwinian prospective is what was it about bipedalism that was so advantageous? Why did it lead to a – why did that adaptation ultimately lead to a species Homo sapiens that has come to dominate the planet today with six and a half billion people?
I think that one of the things that I can do is I seem to have the ability to zoom in super tight for very small details, but then jump back for sort of that big picture perspective. And I think that ultimately, that’s one of my strengths, because you have – every detail matters.
Loss is something that I think is ultimately the number one struggle for humans.
No one wants perfection. I want a confident, smart guy, obviously, but what’s hot is a guy who doesn’t have all the answers. We gals like a guy we can help because, ultimately, we like being needed.

Ultimately, Communism must be defeated by progressive political programs which wipe out the poverty, misery, and discontent on which it thrives.
Fear seems to have many causes. Fear of loss, fear of failure, fear of being hurt, and so on, but ultimately all fear is the ego’s fear of death, of annihilation. To the ego, death is always just around the corner. In this mind-identified state, fear of death affects every aspect of your life.
In the past, I often found that when I reached out for a fast cure it led me down a slippery slope of more medications, hopeful dependence on the next prescription and ultimately a much longer drawn-out illness.
I am not married yet, but I think ultimately in a good marriage it is the relationship which is the most important thing. It is not a matter of who is right and who is wrong; it is a one plus one equals more than two.

Ultimately, it’s a pretty confusing moment.
Ultimately, to have a career in movies, to a certain extent, certainly in England, you can’t sustain a career in just English movies.

Ultimately we know deeply that the other side of every fear is freedom.
Any decision that’s made about my career is ultimately my decision, and it’s helped me not to plan too much. I’ve never been the guy thinking, ‘I want to do a play this year, I want to do this kind of movie or this kind of character.’ I don’t have that sort of control.
All thought must, directly or indirectly, by way of certain characters, relate ultimately to intuitions, and therefore, with us, to sensibility, because in no other way can an object be given to us.

What keeps this industry challenging as an actor is that you never know how something will turn out. The ups and downs are constant. You’re never just smoothly sailing along.

Ultimately, I believe the only secret to a happy marriage is choosing the right person. Life is a series of choices, right?

I have very real concerns about the civil liberties implications of ultimately requiring every resident to submit themselves for compulsory fingerprinting or some other biometric test.
Compliments and criticism are all ultimately based on some form of projection.
