It was very hard for me to put my life on paper. It was

I often avoid using the terms ‘figuration’ and ‘abstraction‘ because I’ve always tried to have it both ways.

There are a lot of idiot fund managers out there who add no value to the process at all.
The prevailing – and foolishattitude is that a good manager can be a good manager anywhere, with no special knowledge of the production process he’s managing. A man with a financial background may know nothing about manufacturing shoes or cars, but he’s put in charge anyway.
Getting over someone is a grieving process. You mourn the loss of the relationship, and that’s only expedited by ‘Out of sight, out of mind.’ But when you walk outside and see them on a billboard or on TV or on the cover of a magazine, it reopens the wound. It’s a high-class problem, but it’s real.

It’s just this little comedy about this group of guys, and their local hangout is a pool hall, and it’s starting to get taken over by this big corporate, evil kind of guy. And it’s just about them trying to save the day and their little pool hall in the process of it all. It’s called ‘Think Tank.’

Gerhard Schroder

Margery Allingham
The IRA has abandoned its armed struggle in pursuit of its goals by political means. This must be fully acknowledged. Continued challenge does nothing but obstruct and inhibit the peace process.
James T. Walsh
Struggle is a never ending process. Freedom is never really won, you earn it and win it in every generation.
The spiritual quest was always the predominant aspect o

The spiritual quest was always the predominant aspect of my life. It’s always been there. But there’s also an incredible passion connected to it; it’s not just a dry investigative process. I have been extremely emotional about it, and that comes out in the songs.

Try not thinking of peeling an orange. Try not imagining the juice running down your fingers, the soft inner part of the peel. The smell. Try and you can’t. The brain doesn’t process negatives.
Consciousness turns out to consist of a maelstrom of events distributed across the brain. These events compete for attention, and as one process outshouts the others, the brain rationalizes the outcome after the fact and concocts the impression that a single self was in charge all along.
I do not like going to the dressing room and trying on millions of outfits. I just look at something and hope that it will work. I try it on at home, since I don’t like going through the whole process.

For me, it doesn’t matter what kind of role I am doing. I just enjoy the process of acting and filmmaking.
This House cannot function without an open, accountable, and independent ethics process; and the molestation of that process by the majority is an abuse of power that cannot stand.
The military tribunals currently underway at Guantanamo Bay create a clear legal process, as affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court in Hamdi v. Rumsfeld, for adjudicating the cases of these terrorists, when possible. Those efforts would be severely undercut by moving the detainees to the United States.
The making of the documentary is an involving and collaborative process where you go deeper unlike in movies where you just borrow someone else’s script.
While learning to code may have once been an arduous or expensive process, the college dropouts who developed Codecademy have democratized coding as surely as Gutenberg democratized text. Anyone can go to Codecademy and start learning and creating code through their simple, fun, interactive window, for free.
I like the process of pencil and paper as opposed to a machine. I think the writing is better when it’s done in handwriting.
Nelson DeMille
Ah, the creative process is the same secret in science as it is in art. They are all the same absolutely.
When we get to a point when trans folks are included in the creative process, the narrative will be much more authentic. Trans actors playing trans roles is a key part of that. But some of the trans talent is not even making it into the audition room, let’s be honest.
Most companies target women as end users, but few are effectively utilizing female employees when it comes to innovating for female consumers. When women are empowered in the design and innovation process, the likelihood of success in the marketplace improves by 144%!
I miss that process of getting the script and reading it and working on it. Every actor has their own way of memorizing their lines, and the whole process of starting to work with the other actors and the director, and doing rehearsals, and going to the location, and going through wardrobe.
During my draft process, I had Seattle come and work me out. This is one of the places where I thought I might be drafted. I’m glad it worked out I’m here.
B. J. Daniels

But I think that your entire life is a process of sorting out some of those early messages that you got.

Anytime you ride against the best in the world, it becomes a learning process.
Bonnie Blair
I want to continue working with actors who truly enjoy the process of acting.
Choi Woo-shik
Kanye West is a brilliant poet and artist. He and I work in a very similar way. We feel the vibration, the power of something, and it inspires us to create, whether it is music or design. It is the same process. Working with Kanye is a joy and great privilege. In 2012, we did collaboration together.
Suffering is always hard to quantify – especially when the pain is caused by as cruel a disease as Alzheimer‘s. Most illnesses attack the body; Alzheimer’s destroys the mind – and in the process, annihilates the very self.
Design is an iterative process. One idea often builds on another.
I’ve dated some women who have turned me on to some funny things that are strange for men to actually do, but these things have become part of my process. I think the things I do for my appearance help make me look better. I even colour my hair because I like how it makes me look.
I did ‘Pines,’ and everybody wanted me to be the bad boy. Then I did Tony in ‘Brooklyn,’ and everybody wanted me to be the sweet kid. So I just want to keep everybody on their toes. Basically, that was the thought process.
We are here today because of grass-roots conservatives all over the place. That’s the way the democratic process is supposed to work. It’s not supposed to be a bunch of guys in a smoky room in Austin picking the next Senator.
We discovered that education is not something which the teacher does, but that it is a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being.
One thing I can say right off the bat is that creating

One thing I can say right off the bat is that creating great editorial is a huge challenge, and you can’t help but go through the process and not appreciate how valuable this skill is, and how much I admire the people who do this every day.
Michael Wolf
It’s a very slow process – two steps forward, one step back – but I’m inching in the right direction.
I think the success of democracy is not really police security; it’s the presence of a broad middle class. The stronger the middle class of a people is, the less you have to worry about one group coming in and exploiting the democratic process for its own ends.
It’s not clear whether the brain actually is designed to have nightmares or whether this is actually the process going awry.
This process is alchemy: its founder is the smith Vulcan.

Oscar Hammerstein II
With trans people, I just think you can’t help the way you are born, though. You know, it’s DNA, it’s genetics. I’m just glad people can do things about their own happiness. I think this thought process that they’re trying to wipe out women is a bit ridiculous – it’s a minority of people.
My favorite part about working in theater is the rehearsal process. I absolutely love the rehearsal process. Working out the characters, figuring the character out, and the relationships between the different characters. I love all of that, which, unfortunately in film, you get very little opportunity to have.
Joseph Gatt
Work hard, work away from the game, work when no one’s looking, and just knowing that it’s a process. Everything will come at the right time.
Whether it be a matter of personal relations within a marriage or political initiatives within a peace process, there is no sure-fire do-it-yourself kit.
I realize the voters elected President Obama in 2012, but they also, in 2014, elected enough Republican senators to gain a majority in the Senate, so we control the confirmation process. And these are two supposedly coequal branches of government involved in this filling of a Supreme Court vacancy.
Our specious present as such is very short. We do, however, experience passing events; part of the process of the passage of events is directly there in our experience, including some of the past and some of the future.
George Herbert Mead
A revolution is not an event. It’s a process. And it takes its time.
When I was younger, I looked at getting older as this process of getting less interested in things and becoming colder, and of finding less joy in the mystery of things. And I’ve found the exact opposite to be true. I find that I’m getting warmer, and that I’m more mystified by human interactions.
Jon Brion
Missionaries labor diligently to teach and baptize those who accept the gospel. In the process, their own testimonies become deeply rooted.
In order to encourage the cattle farmers to raise a herd of all-natural cattle, which is a several-year process, they have to know that it’s not just Shake Shack that wants to buy it. They have to have other buyers who are willing to pay more for all natural.
Pretending that voter fraud does not exist puts the integrity of our voting process at risk.
Forgiveness takes time. It is the last step of the grieving process.
Elin Nordegren
Most intuitive ideas have to be clarified, so there is a trial and error process.
My work on titles was a marvelous opportunity to learn about filmmaking. I think I touched on just about every aspect of the process, both creative and technical. And I worked with many wonderful people.
I write in a very strange way. Things are very fragmentary for a very long time, and then they come together very quickly near the end of the process.
When I came to Cambridge, I was involved in the ward for a little bit, but I did have a very gradual process of trying to work out what I thought a good life consisted of.
To get into the process of doing back-to-back films, it takes getting a little used to.
When a film does well, everyone is usually happy and grateful, but for me, the impression the film leaves upon my mind is created during the process of filming; my memories are not a reflection of criticsreviews and box office figures.
The fact that you had disruptions in the peace process was not only in Rwanda. We had the same problem in Cambodia, we had the same problem in Mozambique, we had the same problem in Salvador.
The reality is that I’m making better wine than I thought I would. The whole process is simple but beautiful.
Brian Schmidt
Life is simply the reification of the process of living.
Ernst Mayr
What I realized is that it doesn’t matter how big or small your film is. The actual filmmaking process, the actual storytelling, it’s still the same thing. It’s still all about creating characters that you like and creating moments that get you excited or get you tense.
In serial music, the series itself is seldom audible… What I’m interested in is a compositional process and a sounding music that are one in the same thing.
Steve Reich
I guess I just process death differently than some folks. Realizing you’re not going to see that person again is always the most difficult part about it. But that feeling settles, and then you are glad you had that person in your life, and then the happiness and the sadness get all swirled up inside you.
Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life.
I love the whole process of making, serving, and eating

I love the whole process of making, serving, and eating hearty soups like lentil, potato leek and carrot, to name a few.
Death consists, indeed, in a repeated process of unrobing, or unsheathing. The immortal part of man shakes off from itself, one after the other, its outer casings, and – as the snake from its skin, the butterfly from its chrysalis – emerges from one after another, passing into a higher state of consciousness.
The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover the core of strength within you that survives all hurt.
Max Lerner
The actor becomes an emotional athlete. The process is painful – my personal life suffers.
The task of the mediator is to help the parties to open difficult issues and nudge them forward in the peace process. The mediator’s role combines those of a ship’s pilot, consulting medical doctor, midwife and teacher.
It’s the sum of the parts that make up the whole, so in my opinion excellence comes from how one undertakes to do something. It all begins with the thought process – which is creative and exalted to produce something out of the ordinary.
Pankaj Patel
The freedom movement transformed the status of women. Women fought along with men as comrades. In the process, the shackles that had bound them fell away.
When you’re in the day-to-day grind, it just seems like it’s another step along the way. But I find joy in the actual process, the journey, the work. It’s not the end. It’s not the end event.
It’s been super weird because you have zoom meetings and then it’s like high school again, I’m stuck at home with my parents and the only time I get out of the house is to workout. Let’s just say it’s not been how I envisioned my pre draft process going.
The major challenge facing most foundations is that they are risk averse. This inhibits their ability to experiment and commit to the experimentation and innovation process.
Steven Levitt
The masses are in reality their own leaders, dialectically creating their own development process.
As a general rule, biology tends to be conservative. It’s rare that evolution ‘invents’ the same process several times.
Gero Miesenbock
Life is not always easy to live, but the opportunity to do so is a blessing beyond comprehension. In the process of living, we will face struggles, many of which will cause us to suffer and to experience pain.
Part of the healing process is sharing with other people who care.
Jerry Cantrell
Democracy is the process by which people choose the man who’ll get the blame.
The process of rehearsal means you learn so much and really get the chance to develop your work on a character.
Adam Garcia
It is an honor and a privilege to be of service and support; however, I realize people are not putting their confidence in me. Instead, they are actually learning to trust themselves. My job is to affirm and support them in the process and teach them to do what I do when I need strength: I begin within.
Much of the Netherlands lies considerably below sea level, as you well know. Through the process of building dikes to wall out the salty sea and through pumping the water into canals, the country of the ingenious, resourceful, and doughty Dutch has literally been born of the sea.
Let’s face it: so much of what we consume is not driven by knowledge but by basic craving and impulse. The process of what we eat starts in our heads. And no one is more in our heads than a food industry that spends billions of dollars in marketing its message in every means possible.
The importance of art is in the process of doing it, in the learning experience where the artist interacts with whatever is being made.
Why can you get a driver‘s license that is recognized state-to-state but a concealed weapons permit is not treated the same? There is a process to do that in a Trump administration because it makes sense.
I love putting paint on canvas, getting lost in the process of painting.
Paul Simonon
Art and science have so much in common – the process of trial and error, finding something new and innovative, and to experiment and succeed in a breakthrough.
Peter M. Brant
Spiritual formation in a Christian tradition answers a specific human question: ‘What kind of person am I going to be?’ It is the process of establishing the character of Christ in the person. That’s all it is.
When I was younger, I’d get very invested in things. It’s a hard lesson to learn, but you have to know that if you want to find gold, you’ve got to love the process of digging.
I think humans are just hard-wired to process people’s faces and understand meaning and expression at such a more granular level than other types of communication.
Genuine equality between the sexes can only be realized in the process of the socialist transformation of society as a whole.
You can be extremely bright and still have dyslexia. You just have to understand how you learn and how you process information. When you know that, you can overcome a lot of the obstacles that come with dyslexia.
When I get really passionate about something, the audition process is really strenuous and hard on me because I feel so much for the project, and I become so attached to it. It’s hard. It’s stressful because you want it so badly, and you’re crafting this character that you’re falling in love with.
You can have great ideas, and you can have all the right policy goals. But unless you’re expanding who is included in the political process, you won’t connect the two.
I must have read every issue of ‘Punchpublished in the 20th century, and I think in the process I picked up the true voice of English humour – that amiable, fairly liberal, laconic voice which you find in something like ‘Three Men in a Boat.’
Use the creative process - singing, writing, art, dance

Use the creative process – singing, writing, art, dance, whatever – to get to know yourself better.
Catie Curtis
If I am doing a good show and I am satisfied with it, and can convey a message or bring a change in the thought process of the society, my purpose is served.
Growth is a painful process.
Wilma Mankiller
Write out the story – rapidly, fluently, and not too criticallyfollowing the second or narrative-order synopsis. Change incidents and plot whenever the developing process seems to suggest such change, never being bound by any previous design.
With acting, you are a small part of the creative process, and sometimes it is hard to feel like you are making an impact.
We gotta show up and pay attention to details, embracing the process of hard work, and developing our bodies and minds to get ready for the season.
During the civilisation and development process of more than 5,000 years, the Chinese nation has made an indelible contribution to the civilisation and advancement of mankind.
Technology will definitely solve all our problems, but in the process it will create brand new ones. But that’s O.K. because the most you can expect from life is to get to solve better and better problems.
Science is fun. Science is curiosity. We all have natural curiosity. Science is a process of investigating. It’s posing questions and coming up with a method. It’s delving in.
My phone was not ringing very much at the time after USC, and that was a very humbling experience after being let go there and to go through that process. You start calling a lot of people that don’t call you back all of a sudden, and you realize things about people.
Change is a process which has to be managed.
The one sure way of participating in the process of nation-building is to vote on the election day.
But the development of human society does not go straight forward; and the epic process will therefore be a recurring process, the series a recurring series – though not in exact repetition.
The fact is that the learning process goes on, and so long as the voices are not stilled and the singers go on singing some of it gets through.
Morris West
I’m a great believer that scientists should spend as much time as possible explaining, and you do explain in the process of teaching.
Education is the process of driving a set of prejudices down your throat.
Martin H. Fischer
If we want more trade in the world, we should establish bilateral trade agreements with other democratic countries. That way we can control the decision-making process. The major economic countries of the world will enter into those agreements.
Learning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is the beginning of health. Learning is the beginning of spirituality. Searching and learning is where the miracle process all begins.
The studio is a laboratory, not a factory. An exhibition is the result of your experiments, but the process is never-ending. So an exhibition is not a conclusion.
Gallows humor is part of our coping mechanism. It’s part of our grief process. If we don’t know what else to do, we laugh. That’s a very real thing.
Sometimes you gotta just chill. You gotta chill your thinking process.
But the customer is the final, final filter. What survives the whole process is what people wear. I’m not interested in making clothes that end up in some dusty museum.
My constant prayer, my number one foreign goal, is to bring peace to Israel. And in the process to Israel’s neighbours.
The total loss of hearing was a process that lasted more than a decade, but it was sufficiently gradual for me to attend Sydney Boys’ High School and to profit from the teaching there.
John Cornforth
I have definitely been curious and involved in the process; even as a young actor. I was always looking at where the camera was, what story it was telling. And as my experience grew, I wanted to know even more.
I don’t really understand that process called reincarnation but if there is such a thing I’d like to come back as my daughter‘s dog.
The development agenda is not a straightforward one; it’s a process with serious hurdles, but it’s a path we’ve chosen to go down.
Augustin Matata Ponyo
Growth hackers are typically computer engineers that build great marketing ideas into the product during the development process.
An inner process stands in need of outward criteria.
I’m concerned that boys have become politically incorrect, that we are a society in the process of turning against its male children.
Christina Hoff Sommers
The point of revenge is not in the completion but in the process.
In the process of the Arab Spring, we have unfortunatel

In the process of the Arab Spring, we have unfortunately seen a development in Syria where the regime has been oppressing its people.
An artist must be open to both appreciation and criticism. It’s a part of the learning process, or else there is no growth.
I’m so happy to have been a part of that process and I would go straight back into the desert in a ton of chain mail for Ridley any day of the week. He’s an amazing director and I can’t wait to see the long version.
When the state or federal government control the education of all of our children, they have the dangerous and illegitimate monopoly to control and influence the thought process of our citizens.
Michael Badnarik
True love doesn’t happen right away; it’s an ever-growing process. It develops after you’ve gone through many ups and downs, when you’ve suffered together, cried together, laughed together.
Ricardo Montalban
Architecture is a result of a process of asking questions and testing them and re-interrogating and changing in a repetitive way.
In human history, we are going from knowledge to omniscience, from potence to omnipotence, from ethics and religion to righteousness. So, in my view, God comes at the end of this long process. This may not happen in our lifetimes or even in the lifetime of our species.
To this day I over prepare. I draw storyboards for every scene – chicken scratches so crude that they amuse and horrify the crew. I send out shot lists, act out the scenes, and search for a theme that I can relate to. It’s my favorite time of the process.
The downside to becoming a doctor, I think, is it’s a very long process; four years of medical school, three years of internship, two years of residency, umpteen years of specialization, and then finally you get to be what you have trained almost all your life for.
It’s been a process of evolving within a family company to get the autonomy I now have from a boss like my father. If you’re sitting there waiting for a pat on the back, you’re going to be waiting a long time.
We are glorious accidents of an unpredictable process with no drive to complexity, not the expected results of evolutionary principles that yearn to produce a creature capable of understanding the mode of its own necessary construction.
Let’s define listening as making meaning from sound. It’s a mental process, and it’s a process of extraction. We use some pretty cool techniques to do this. One of them is pattern recognition.
The bigger question is how does a rogue species called humans – whose population just blew through the seven billion mark on it’s way to nine billion members – manage to survive the next century on a planet with finite resources, without destroying its delicate balance in the process.
Movies, you can insulate yourself more from audience, to a degree, and just look at box office. In theater, the audience is a very dynamic part of your process, and you feel much more exposed.
Misery, mutilation, destruction, terror, starvation and death characterize the process of war and form a principal part of the product.
People take the longest possible paths, digress to numerous dead ends, and make all kinds of mistakes. Then historians come along and write summaries of this messy, nonlinear process and make it appear like a simple, straight line.
The arts equally have distinct departments, and unless photography has its own possibilities of expression, separate from those of the other arts, it is merely a process, not an art.
Alfred Stieglitz
We are probably the only artists in the world who have a 2,000-page book on a work of art that doesn’t exist. But in this way, these projects reveal their identity through this whole process. When I’m starting, I only have the slightest idea of how the work of art will exist.
I change my mind every five minutes. I’m very brutal with my own process. I throw everything away very quickly, and then I have to go out and rummage through the rubbish in the middle of the night to try to find a bit I’d written a week ago.
In the Buddhist learning process, we say three stages. The first is hearing, the second is contemplation, and the third is meditation.
I love shooting, when the character is interesting and the script is interesting, but the research beforehand is really fun. The whole process makes me anxious and restless, and I have trouble sleeping, just trying to figure out the character.
If you can’t describe what you are doing as a process, you don’t know what you’re doing.
I swim in a sea of words. They flow around me and through me and, by a process that is not fully clear to me, some delicate hidden membrane draws forth the stuff that is the necessary condition of my life.
I believe that having conversations about difficult things is a part of a process and that it should happen. You don’t avoid it because it’s difficult. And you’re not dividing more by having a respectful conversation.
Doctors look after me. But, basically, I look after myself. I don’t overeat. I don’t develop a big paunch. I do a little bit of exercise. At the same time, I believe that if you don’t work, you will decay. The decay process is through not using your faculties – not using your brain, not using your body.
Songwriting is a very mysterious process. It feels like creating something from nothing. It’s something I don’t feel like I really control.
Architecture is by definition a very collaborative process.
Joshua Prince-Ramus
Acting is just a process of relaxation, actually. Knowing the text so well and trusting that the instinct and the subconscious mind, whatever you want to call it, is going to take over.
You need to turn over every rock and open every door to learn your industry. This process never ends.
That’s a problem. I mean, like any sort of growing startup organization, we are sort of overwhelmed by our growth. And that means we’re getting enormous quantity of whistleblower disclosures of a very high caliber, but don’t have enough people to actually process and vet this information.
Science is a way of life. Science is a perspective. Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding in a manner that’s precise, predictive and reliable – a transformation, for those lucky enough to experience it, that is empowering and emotional.
One of the things that has to be faced is the process o

One of the things that has to be faced is the process of waiting to change the system, how much we have got to do to find out who we are, where we have come from and where we are going.
Ella Baker
That’s the buzz for me, the creative process. An idea is never as good as when it’s in your head. And then it’s just how little you ruin it.
Selecting what gets sold in smaller shops and online is a long and artful process, it takes precision and care. The people who stock the successful vintage shops are great buyers, and you pay for their skill as well as the quality level at which they sell their clothes.
All people who grew up with science fiction and fantasy and horror went through the whole acculturation process of the genre. We were all told to read the golden age writers. We were all told Heinlein and Asimov and all these straight, white males, although some of them were Jewish.
After all these years, I am still involved in the process of self-discovery. It’s better to explore life and make mistakes than to play it safe. Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full life.
The important thing is to learn a lesson every time you lose. Life is a learning process and you have to try to learn what’s best for you. Let me tell you, life is not fun when you’re banging your head against a brick wall all the time.
Everything that we used to think got taught at home now seemingly has to be taught in the public school system, and something is going to get lost in the process.
A careful analysis of the process of observation in atomic physics has shown that the subatomic particles have no meaning as isolated entities, but can only be understood as interconnections between the preparation of an experiment and the subsequent measurement.
Erwin Schrodinger
When I look at acting careers that I really admire, I see that it’s been a precise decision-making process for these people. They make decisions based on what they love, and they do only the things that they are passionate about. They play only characters that they can’t stop thinking about.
If sleep does not provide a remarkable set of benefits, then it’s the biggest mistake the evolutionary process has ever made.
As an actor, you have many tools – your body, your voice, your emotions, mentally. In film, you have your eyes because they communicate your thought process. In fact, generally in film, what you don’t say is more important than what you say. That’s not so much the case for stage.
On ‘Redneck Island,’ a show I love, there was a lot of drama and storylines going on because someone’s always voted off the island through process of elimination.
Along with that ongoing process Sinn Fein took a decision to establish a peace commission which had the responsibility to travel around the country to receive submissions from the general public, also our opponents.
Twitter is a real addiction, like the color of it, the process of it.
A joke is not a thing but a process, a trick you play on the listener‘s mind. You start him off toward a plausible goal, and then by a sudden twist you land him nowhere at all or just where he didn’t expect to go.
Max Eastman
Popularity isn’t just something that happens. You have to give something in exchange for it, and that’s the dangerous part of the process.
Robert Bringhurst
Clouds do not really look like camels or sailing ships or castles in the sky. They are simply a natural process at work. So too, perhaps, are our lives.
If we desire a society of peace, then we cannot achieve such a society through violence. If we desire a society without discrimination, then we must not discriminate against anyone in the process of building this society. If we desire a society that is democratic, then democracy must become a means as well as an end.
Great novels have great characterization no matter what. But multiple points of view let me examine characters from entirely different perspectives, allowing me to learn more about everyone in the process.
Courage doesn’t grow overnight. It can be a long process.
Be real with yourself in whatever area of your life and your game that you need improvement on. Once you figure that out, you just have to go out and work on it. For me, it’s footwork. I constantly work on it, and it’s a never-ending process.
Answers are what we are trying to get at; search is a process by which you may be able to get answers, but it’s not the end goal. It’s a mechanism.
Conrad Wolfram
Excellence is a process that should occupy all our days.
Ted Engstrom
I just kind of transitioned right out of the dance world into the music industry. I started writing and I just fell in love with the whole process.
It was said that Chile was not ready to vote for a woman, it was traditionally a sexist country. In the end, the reverse happened: the fact of being a woman became a symbol of the process of cultural change the country was undergoing.
Most viscose rayon is made from wood pulp, but the process of making it typically uses so many chemicals in such vast quantities that some experts said it shouldn’t really count as a natural plant fiber.
Transformation is a process, and as life happens there are tons of ups and downs. It’s a journey of discovery – there are moments on mountaintops and moments in deep valleys of despair.
Personality is less a finished product than a transitive process. While it has some stable features, it is at the same time continually undergoing change.
Gordon W. Allport
Is education possibly a process of trading awareness for things of lesser worth? The goose who trades his is soon a pile of feathers.
Aldo Leopold
My identity was a big issue when I was a teenager, and I had a lot of questions, like: ‘Who am I?’ ‘Who do I belong to?’ But when I was still quite young, I decided that belonging is a tough process in life, and I’d better say I belonged to myself and the world rather than belonging to one nationality or another.
Hiam Abbass
I value unity because I believe we learn truth from each other in this process.
What starts the process, really, are laughs and slights

What starts the process, really, are laughs and slights and snubs when you are a kid. If your anger is deep enough and strong enough, you learn that you can change those attitudes by excellence, personal gut performance.
You can’t stop the aging process. There’s only so much oil you can put on your body. I’ve always just tried to go with my age. If the part requires somebody a little younger or older, I can probably get away with that.
We need to figure out a way to create more energy on a gigawatt scale and not create so much CO2 in the process.
Klaus Lackner
Photography is, by its nature, exploitative. It’s whether you use this process with a sense of responsibility or not. I feel that I do so. My conscience is clear.
Uncertainty will always be part of the taking charge process.
Harold S. Geneen
Craft comes into acting later rather than sooner. I was somebody who had to learn through a process – a natural actor doesn’t need to.
Patience doesn’t mean making a pact with the devil of denial, ignoring our emotions and aspirations. It means being wholeheartedly engaged in the process that’s unfolding, rather than ripping open a budding flower or demanding a caterpillar hurry up and get that chrysalis stage over with.
Happiness is not something that just comes to you. It’s an active process.
Hopping the fence or wading the Rio Grande River isn’t part of America’s immigration process.
Globalization presumes sustained economic growth. Otherwise, the process loses its economic benefits and political support.
We must fight terrorism as if there’s no peace process and work to achieve peace as if there’s no terror.
All work is a process of failure. Every single thing I write, I look at it and go, ‘Do better. That’s not good enough. Do better.’ And so, that keeps me up at night.
My thought process is I have been lied to so much by people who I thought I could trust that it motivates me to want to be as honest as possible, to project that energy, because that is how I want people to treat me.
Tax dollars intended for science education must not be used to teach creationism as any sort of real explanation of nature, because any observation or process of inference about our origin and the nature of the universe disproves creationism in every respect.
It is important for us to be able to meet and greet the people that we serve. And if we start having police presence everywhere we go, it’s going to create a chilling effect on discourse, and it creates an incredible assault on the democratic process.
I don’t really have a writing process. I don’t write at all but, honestly, I feel like it’s a modern-day writing because everything is technology and if I go in there and freestyle and I keep it, I feel like I wrote that. If I go in there and fix it, it’s almost like something I wrote.
In our view, successful reform is not an event. It is a sustainable process that will build on its own successes – a virtuous cycle of change.
Collaboration is an important part of the process, and ego is never a part of it.
You get excited about getting married, aight, but after you’re married for awhile, you gotta have a process to make it work, aight.
America is a country ready to be taken, in fact, longing to be taken by political leaders ready to restore democracy and trust to the political process.
But there are parents out there who feel like they have been shut out from the process of how their children are educated, and that’s never a good thing.
My creative process involves that old saying: It’s 90% perspiration and only 10% inspiration.
I love everything about food; if you took it away you would be depriving me of one of my greatest pleasures. I love the whole process of it – buying it, cooking it, eating it, talking about it, talking over it.
The only protection as a historian is to institute a process of research and writing that minimizes the possibility of error. And that I have tried to do, aided by modern technology, which enables me, having long since moved beyond longhand, to use a computer for both organizing and taking notes.
For me, writing a song, I sit down and the process doesn’t really involve me thinking about the demographic of people I’m trying to hit or who I want to be able to relate to the song or what genre of music it falls under.
I think that President Obama has done the best he possibly could during the first term considering that his opposition was willing to do whatever necessary to destroy him, even if it meant damaging the country in the process.
What usually happens in the educational process is that the faculties are dulled, overloaded, stuffed and paralyzed so that by the time most people are mature they have lost their innate capabilities.
Credentials are critical if you want to do something professional. If you want to become a doctor or lawyer or teacher or professor, there is a credentialing process. But there are a lot of other things where it’s not clear they’re that important.
Yes, process and preparations are the most important for me as a player. If preparations are not great, that tends to affect performance. When preparations are perfect you are not searching for results but only counting on performance.
‘Educational’ refers to the process, not the object. Although, come to think of it, some of my teachers could easily have been replaced by a cheeseburger.
Many brands have lost their way in the process of evolving from a small company to a much bigger corporation.
To each his own, but my process of preparation is based

To each his own, but my process of preparation is based on conditions, not opposition.
Higher SAT scores mean better college matriculation rates. So it’s no wonder that private schools in ultra-competitive environments would grease the qualifying process as much as possible.
I’m inspired by many things, from landscapes to textiles. Art and architecture always influence my design process.
For a lot of folks who get sober, the process of getting and staying sober becomes their higher power, and it becomes a religion that sort of consumes a whole lot of them. I just don’t think that that’s necessary. I think that that can be a side note rather than the story of your life.
It’s an unbelievably tough process. And there ain’t no bums in the Hall. I mean, they’re putting in great players every year. The selection committee they have, I believe, is the right selection of people.
Never underestimate the ability of political leaders to misread history on a monumental scale. The invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan have both served to hasten western decline: they have both failed to achieve their objectives and in the process demonstrated an underlying western impotence.
Life is a process. We are a process. The universe is a process.
If you stay true to your ideas, film-making becomes an inside-out, honest kind of process.
I’ve had nine of my books adapted to film, and almost all were enjoyable. I’ve been very lucky with Hollywood, and look forward to more movies being adapted. But I don’t get involved in that process. I know nothing about making movies and I stay away from it and hope for the best.
I think there’s a lot of learning process in figuring out what things you want to do and shouldn’t do. Maturing in that way is something that comes with experience and time.
We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.
In contemplation and reverie, one thought introduces another perpetually; and it is by similarity, or the hooking of one upon the other, that the process of thinking is carried on.
And ultimately the people who produce my records, they know that they’re here to serve the purpose of me expressing who I am at this period of time and augmenting that or pulling it forward and I love that process.
Forgiving the men who killed my parents and brother was a process, a journey into deeper and deeper prayer.
Immaculee Ilibagiza
The entire educational process must be carried out with love, which is perceptible in every disciplinary measure and which does not instill any fear. And the most effective educational method is not the word of instruction but the living example without which all words remain useless.
It is opposition to economic orthodoxy that leads us into austerity and cuts. But it is also a thirst for something more communal, more participative. That, to me, is what is interesting in this process.
I am a simple man who comes from a village, and villagers like us speak our mind. Now, in the process, if unknowingly my words came across as disrespectful or insulting, then I am deeply sorry. I don’t want to hurt anyone.
Personally, I experience success when I enjoy what I’m doing. I love the creative process, even if the end result isn’t embraced by anyone else.
We have a writing process that’s very much you try to create the character in a complicated way and then you let the story lead you to discovering who the character is in a natural way.

The Process is never going to end.
My advice to people today is as follows: if you take the game of life seriously, if you take your nervous system seriously, if you take your sense organs seriously, if you take the energy process seriously, you must turn on, tune in, and drop out.
My sights have always been on acting, on the creative process, never the lifestyle. Growing up in Northern Ireland when I did, everything was against you if you wanted to do something like that. But I was determined.
You shouldn’t have to sue somebody to get justice. It ought to come through administrative process.
I’m getting excited before every single game. The trophy at the end is less important than the process itself.
Roman Abramovich
Economic and technical imperatives – not any preconceived directives – will keep propelling the process of energy transition.
As a director, it is important to understand the actor’s process.
In the process of evolution, the body lasts for some time and then will take other body and take other body and take other body until the final redemption from diversity is transcended.
The creative process is mysterious; a conversation, a ride in the car, or a melody can trigger something.
Being an Asian person on SNL,’ when people are like, ‘Why did it take so long?’ It’s sort of a question that doesn’t fully understand the idea that there is no developmental experiential process for a queer Asian person to get into comedy in a way that feels inevitable.
To me, consensus seems to be the process of abandoning all beliefs, principles, values and policies. So it is something in which no one believes and to which no one objects.
Taste as you go. When you taste the food throughout the cooking process you can make adjustments as you go.
Glamour is an imaginative process that creates a specif

Glamour is an imaginative process that creates a specific emotional response: a sharp mixture of projection, longing, admiration, and aspiration. It evokes an audience’s hopes and dreams and makes them seem attainable, all the while maintaining enough distance to sustain the fantasy.
Art is a process of delivering or arranging elements that appeal to the emotions of a person looking at it. It’s what you feel.
Conflict is good in a negotiation process… it’s the clash of two ideas, which then, all being well, produces a third idea.
Luke Roberts
I don’t think you can ever do your best. Doing your best is a process of trying to do your best.
Townes Van Zandt
Whatever may have been suggested by some Leavers during the referendum it must be clear now that the Brexit process is immensely complicated.
To work in architecture you are so much involved with society, with politics, with bureaucrats. It’s a very complicated process to do large projects. You start to see the society, how it functions, how it works. Then you have a lot of criticism about how it works.
You can’t fix yourself out of a mental health issue. You can’t wake up and say, ‘Today I’m not being depressed!’ It’s a process to get well, but there is recovery.
My ideas have undergone a process of emergence by emergency. When they are needed badly enough, they are accepted.
Parkinson‘s is a slow but inevitable process. It’s hard living with it on a daily basis. The difficulty facing people with it is that they never quite know ‘Can I or can’t I do this today?’
Being transgender isn’t a medical transition. It’s a process of learning to love yourself for who you are.
In the long run, Europe will certainly move toward unification. But it will be a process of push and pull, and there will be resistance.
I loved raising my kids. I loved the process, the dirt of it, the tears of it, the frustration of it, Christmas, Easter, birthdays, growth charts, pediatrician appointments. I loved all of it.
Jane Elliot
Design is a way of life, a point of view. It involves the whole complex of visual communications: talent, creative ability, manual skill, and technical knowledge. Aesthetics and economics, technology and psychology are intrinsically related to the process.
Let me be the first to tell you, drinking alcohol is the worst thing to do in cold weather. Hot soup is the best because the process of digesting food helps to warm you up.
I think of discipline as the continual everyday process of helping a child learn self-discipline.
I promise you that the time will come, if you have tattoos, that you will regret your actions. They cannot be washed off. They are permanent. Only by an expensive and painful process can they be removed. If you are tattooed, then probably for the remainder of your life you will carry it with you.
My thought process is in Malayalam. So, every time I have to work outside Malayalam, the process is a little stressful. I have to translate my Malayalam thoughts into English and back to Tamil.
Music is a whole oasis in my head. The creation process is so personal and fulfilling.
Every time I work, it’s an educational process because I learn by watching other actors. My career is always going to be an ongoing study.
Bill Nunn
I am no historian, but Hungary is a country which has never known democracy – and by that, I mean not a democratic political system, but an organic process which has mobilised the entire country’s society. In the case of Hungary, this development was blocked by the growth of the Ottoman empire in the 16th century.
It is interesting that I have gone through the process of representing clients as an ex-athlete. I am certainly not naive to think that the possibility of corruption isn’t there.
By a continuing process of inflation, government can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens.
In some Old Testament books, it’s very evident that an editor has been at work. That’s quite all right. It’s part of the process.
J. I. Packer
A maturing process, and growth, is always painful. You ask any teenager, they will tell you, and it’s just like that for the country. We need to grow; we need to evolve.
Simon Bolivar, when history led him – and as Karl Marx said, men can make history, but only as far as history allows us to do so – when history took Bolivar and made him the leader of the independence process in Venezuela, he made that process revolutionary.
I love laugh lines. It means you’ve had a good life. The most beautiful women – Audrey Hepburn, Lauren Hutton, Ali MacGraw – all embraced the aging process.
Language itself changes slowly, but the Internet has speeded up the process of those changes so you notice them more quickly.
I’m a student. I want to do better, and I want directors who can find the actress in me and be my teachers. I’m interested in the whole process of editing, post-production and direction.
So we’re in this process of letting go of our own attachments to our physical forms and to the people we love, and… basically everything. Life is like this one big process of letting go.
Life is a process of evolution.
Anytime you really take a close look at people who are dealing with the aging process, you’re going to have a complicated reaction to what you’re seeing and feeling. If you’re in the middle of it, those emotions are going to be quadrupled. It’s immediate, it’s relatable, so it’s good human drama.
So I've seen life as one long learning process. And if

So I’ve seen life as one long learning process. And if I see – you know, if I fly on somebody else’s airline and find the experience is not a pleasant one, which it wasn’t in – 21 years ago, then I’d think, well, you know, maybe I can create the kind of airline that I’d like to fly on.
A lot of young policemen have told me that they saw ‘Singam’ and joined the police force because of that. Some tell me they saw the training process and want to be a cop like that.
Fluency is the developmental process that connects decoding with everything we know about words to make the meaning of the text come to life. Fluency is a wonderful bridge to comprehension and to a life-long love of reading.
The greatest films ever made in our history were cut on film, and I’m tenaciously hanging on to the process. I just love going into an editing room and smelling the photochemistry and seeing my editor wearing mini-strands of film around his neck.
I’ve always been excited by rotoscoping, the technique used in films like ‘Waking Life,’ which fuses animation with real-life emotion. It seemed like it was a process ripe for innovation.
The European model is, first, a social and economic system founded on the role of the market, for no computer in the world can process information better than the market.
The home ownership process for Native Americans has been hobbled by bureaucratic delays and regulations.
Rick Renzi
If everybody is happy, then something is wrong with the democratic process.
When something is great, then you can sit back after the work is done and relax, but during the process I definitely am making sure everything is really, really good.
You don’t have to be alone with your thoughts anymore. You don’t have to process anything. You can call up someone to do something to instantly make you sort of feel better.
Thought is more important than art. To revere art and have no understanding of the process that forces it into existence, is finally not even to understand what art is.
There are really three parts to the creative process. First there is inspiration, then there is the execution, and finally there is the release.
By seeing the problem of poverty merely in terms of assistance, we overlook that our enormous economic advantage is deeply tainted by how it accumulated over the course of one historical process that has devastated the societies and cultures of four continents.
Thomas Pogge
Within a culture possessed by the myth of feminine evil, the naming, describing, and theorizing about good and evil has constituted a maze/haze of deception. The journey of women becoming is breaking through this maze – springing into free space, which is an a-mazing process.
Mary Daly
I was in the middle of filming Season 3 of ‘Grace and Frankie.’ Then the writing process for ‘Mystery Science Theater 3000’ was happening at the exact same time. And then the pre-production for ‘Fatherless’ was happening at the exact same time as well.
It’s a learning process, and now I know that even when you don’t have a title, or you’re not in a main event caliber program, you have to remain ‘main event level’ and always not allow anything to hinder that.
I feel somewhere there is a fault in this whole mindset of not accepting the natural process. To age gracefully, to accept life with grace has more beauty and charm. But you have to be fit and healthy. And that is something we should strive for.
People always say, ‘Oh, I’d love to work with my sibling,’ or ‘My God, I could never work with my sibling.’ It was just a natural process for us. We started collaborating on our first films and it evolved. We have a passion for film that we shared as we were growing up.
Your life is the sum result of all the choices you make, both consciously and unconsciously. If you can control the process of choosing, you can take control of all aspects of your life. You can find the freedom that comes from being in charge of yourself.
Robert Foster Bennett
Let’s take flight simulation as an example. If you’re trying to train a pilot, you can simulate almost the whole course. You don’t have to get in an airplane until late in the process.
Roy Romer
As far as the filmmaking process is concerned, stars are essentially worthless – and absolutely essential.
William Goldman
Since age seven, I’ve been composing and have never stopped composing, yet, the creative process is as elusive to me as it has ever been.
A process which led from the amoeba to man appeared to the philosophers to be obviously a progress though whether the amoeba would agree with this opinion is not known.
The lessons from the peace process are clear; whatever life throws at us, our individual responses will be all the stronger for working together and sharing the load.
The brutality of apartheid drains you of that emotion of fear if you have gone through everything you can be put through in the process of harassment.
You have to understand that once an indictment has been signed, all countries that are signature to the U.N. charter will hand a person straight over. You don’t have to go through the normal extradition process.
Tony Greig
You have to learn how to win in this league. It’s a process.
I lost my father and went into a process of grief with it that was all about how to replace that grief, how to fill it, and I think there was something very desperate in the way that I was replacing it.
Justin Kurzel
It is a growing process. You can’t just like beer. You have to start somewhere and learn the different flavors.
Life is one long process of getting tired.
There’s so much emphasis on Daniel Day-Lewis and his process, which is appropriately his own. But I was just blown away by his generosity as an actor. He’s so giving as an actor that he just naturally commands the focus on set.
No teacher ever skipped the student process... if you w

No teacher ever skipped the student process… if you want to be a leader, you have to be a follower first.
You can study government and politics in school, but the best way to really understand the process is to volunteer your time.
Rob McKenna
Due process should matter.
My favorite part of the whole filmmaking process is working with a fantastic cinematographer, a fantastic actor or actors, and then just creating emotions and stories. I get so excited by that. That’s the part I’m utterly addicted to.
I still believe the Lewinsky investigation was way off from the focus of what Whitewater was, which turned out to be nothing at the end of the process. And I think that there were people who were determined as political opponents to not allow his presidency to succeed.
I think there’s a natural system in your own head about how much violence the scene warrants. It’s not an intellectual process, it’s an instinctive process.
God wants us to know that life is a series of beginnings, not endings. Just as graduations are not terminations, but commencements. Creation is an ongoing process, and when we create a perfect world where love and compassion are shared by all, suffering will cease.
Most people don’t like change. They revolt against it unless they can clearly see the advantage it brings. For that reason, when good leaders prepare to take action or make changes, they take people through a process to get them ready for it.
Evolution is a process of constant branching and expansion.
China was the first time I truly felt like an outsider. I fell in love with the process of trying to become intimate with the culture.
I’m proud that today, at 43 years old, I’ve come to value the aging process and focus on inner rather than outer beauty.
Right now we’re in the process of writing new material for a new record.
Dave Lombardo
At the start of the process the idea is just a thought – very fragile and exclusive. When the first physical manifestation is created everything changes. It is no longer exclusive, now it involves a lot of people.
Reform is the mission from which we shall not digress; it is an expression of belief and determination between us and our people. With the help of Allah, we will proceed forward in this promising national process within the natural progress of the life cycle and the development of people and nation.
Conservatives like to insist that their judges are strict constructionists, giving the Constitution and statutes their precise meaning and no more, while judges like Ms. Sotomayor are activists. But there is no magic right way to interpret terms like ‘free speech‘ or ‘due process’ – or potato chip.
The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover the core of strength within you that survives all hurt.
Max Lerner
But love is really more of an interactive process. It’s about what we do not just what we feel. It’s a verb, not a noun.
I don’t have time for their judgement and their stupidity and you know they lay down with their ugly wives in front of their ugly children and look at their loser lives and then they look at me and they say, ‘I can’t process it’ well, no, you never will stop trying, just sit back and enjoy the show. You know?
Living is a constant process of deciding what we are going to do.
The one process now going on that will take millions of years to correct is the loss of genetic and species diversity by the destruction of natural habitats. This is the folly our descendants are least likely to forgive us.
As a parent, you have to be good coach and bad coach, and I think in the college-application process, I didn’t want to be bad coach. ‘This is amazing! I’m so proud of you!’ That’s the role I wanted with my kids.
Sketching is like dancing. It’s process as much as product. You can turn your head off and just sort of dissolve into the now. Doing a giant, super thought-out painting is the opposite of that.
Editing is a meditative process. I enjoy it the most. I am not dealing with 200 people.
I pity the man who wants a coat so cheap that the man or woman who produces the cloth will starve in the process.
Benjamin Harrison
What will happen is the bills will start out the way we like them; in order to move them – we’ll probably have to make compromises. That’s the way the legislative process works when it’s functioning.
The labor of keeping house is labor in its most naked state, for labor is toil that never finishes, toil that has to be begun again the moment it is completed, toil that is destroyed and consumed by the life process.
Mary McCarthy
Each American has a right to be heard, and I was proud to vote to pass the Voting Rights Advancement Act to restore vital voter protections and strengthen Virginians’ trust in our political process.
I loved being a part of ‘Celebrity MasterChef.’ The process was scary and I was so out of my comfort zone but I’ve learnt so much. Doing something I’d never done before put me in the position of the celebs on ‘Strictly‘ and because of that experience, I think i’ll be a better teacher because of it.
Peace is a never ending process… It cannot ignore our differences or overlook our common interests. It requires us to work and live together.
Those in powerless positions aren’t about to complain about bullying bosses, abusive supervisors or corrupt co-workers. There is no safe way to do so and no process that promises redress.
I mean, I’m new but I’ve always been very interested in film making process and I’ve been lucky enough to work with film makers in my past that have been very encouraging to let me hang around. I get so emotionally vested – that the producer part of me was natural.
The gradual decline of a society is often a self-induce

The gradual decline of a society is often a self-induced process of trying to meet ever-expanding appetites, rather than a physical inability to produce past levels of food and fuel, or to maintain adequate defense.
Victor Davis Hanson
The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.
Amelia Earhart
It has long been known for sure that the sight of tasty food makes a hungry man’s mouth water; also lack of appetite has always been regarded as an undesirable phenomenon, from which one might conclude that appetite is essentially linked with the process of digestion.
The Kimberley Process is not a perfect construct, and it is necessary now to re-double efforts to address its remaining shortcomings and strengthen its provisions.
Nicky Oppenheimer
I just loved playing a man who was unafraid of making an idiot of himself in the process of falling in love. I found that admirable.
The process of editing is what I enjoy most – putting the pieces together and making sense out of them.
Christian Marclay
The aging process is not gradual or gentle. It rushes up, pushes you over, and runs off laughing. No one should grow old who isn’t ready to appear ridiculous.
We are exploring creative models to pursue innovation outside the confines of our normal process, taking calculated risks and learning from them.
David and I got cut out the editing process on that. We were able to affect it more than not. We sent in our notes, we were able to see cuts. We weren’t allowed to see dailies and we weren’t allowed to sit in the editing room and just work.
To say that Christ is the term and motive force of evolution, to say that he manifests himself as ‘evolver,’ is implicitly to recognize that he becomes attainable in and through the whole process of evolution.
I’m trying figuring out how to be the best person I can be. But it’s been a process of trial and error.
David Arquette
Teaching is an instinctual art, mindful of potential, craving of realizations, a pausing, seamless process.
Because I feel ‘Thor’ is the beginning of finding my roots, and I found that I have family in America, I want to take my time and put effort on my future work so that foreign people get to know me better, and I also want to enjoy that process itself!
Tadanobu Asano
If one is seriously interested in preventing reproductive cloning, one must stop the process before it starts.
Human evolution, at first, seems extraordinary. How could the process that gave rise to slugs and oak trees and fish produce a creature that can fly to the moon and invent the Internet and cross the ocean in boats?
I don’t really have a process. I’m very much an in-the-moment actress. I suppose I just kind of wing it because I feel that as long as I know my character, I should be able to be spontaneous on set.
The death penalty is ineffective as a deterrent, and the appeals process is expensive and cruel to the surviving family members.
The mere process of growing old together will make our slightest acquaintances seem like bosom friends.
It is a very cynical, skeptical, foolish person that suggests Israel does not need a peace process to have a growing economy.
