When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people not characters. A character is a caricature.
Football should never be a worry. It should be exciting. When a child plays football outside, he doesn’t need to worry. Professionals should be the same.
A good youth ought to have a fear of God, to be subject to his parents, to give honor to his elders, to preserve his purity; he ought not to despise humility, but should love forbearance and modesty. All these are an ornament to youthful years.
People don’t want to see women doing things they don’t think women should do.
Love shouldn’t be about jealousy or anything like that. It should be about commitment and being able to trust that person. If you can’t have that from the get-go, there’s a problem.
Aaron Carter
In life, you have ups and downs, but you should never give up. You should always try to get ahead.
Yalitza Aparicio
The Trail of Tears should teach all of us the importance of respect for others who are different from ourselves and compassion for those who have difficulties.
In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.
I don’t feel like anyone should follow what I did.
Selfless service to the people and resolution of their problems should be the top priority of local bodies representatives, as they can come up to the expectations of the people only through service, hard work, and honesty.
It’s not enough that I should succeed – others should fail.
David Merrick
I have always observed that to succeed in the world one should seem a fool, but be wise.
I don’t think that one moment in people’s life should define them. Within reason: I emphasise that.
I want to be able to look back and say, ‘I’ve done everything I can, and I was successful.’ I don’t want to look back and say I should have done this or that. I’d like to change things for the younger generation of swimmers coming along.
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
A University should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning.
We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.
We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.
I think the currency of leadership is transparency. You’ve got to be truthful. I don’t think you should be vulnerable every day, but there are moments where you’ve got to share your soul and conscience with people and show them who you are, and not be afraid of it.
The architect should strive continually to simplify; the ensemble of the rooms should then be carefully considered that comfort and utility may go hand in hand with beauty.
Resilience isn’t a single skill. It’s a variety of skills and coping mechanisms. To bounce back from bumps in the road as well as failures, you should focus on emphasizing the positive.
If, then, you are looking for the way by which you should go, take Christ, because He Himself is the way.
Public health service should be as fully organized and as universally incorporated into our governmental system as is public education. The returns are a thousand fold in economic benefits, and infinitely more in reduction of suffering and promotion of human happiness.
If our nation wants to reduce global warming, air pollution and energy instability, we should invest only in the best energy options. Nuclear energy isn’t one of them.
Mark Z. Jacobson

If one had but a single glance to give the world, one should gaze on Istanbul.
Alphonse de Lamartine
The time when most of you should withdraw into yourself is when you are forced to be in a crowd.
Epicurus
Every people should be originators of their own destiny

Every people should be originators of their own destiny.
Martin Delany
If I knew for a certainty that a man was coming to my house with the conscious design of doing me good, I should run for my life.
People who never get carried away should be.
It is so characteristic, that just when the mechanics of reproduction are so vastly improved, there are fewer and fewer people who know how the music should be played.
In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
I have been given a list of 35 white farmers in Mashonaland West alone. We say no to whites owning our land, and they should go… They can own companies and apartments… but not the soil. It is ours, and that message should ring loud and clear in Britain and the United States.
The aim of argument, or of discussion, should not be victory, but progress.
Life comes with many challenges. The ones that should not scare us are the ones we can take on and take control of.
A liar should have a good memory.
Failed plans should not be interpreted as a failed vision. Visions don’t change, they are only refined. Plans rarely stay the same, and are scrapped or adjusted as needed. Be stubborn about the vision, but flexible with your plan.
The very important thing you should have is patience.
History should not be left to the historians. Rather, be like Churchill. Make history, and then write it.
We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren’t punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That’s war. And this is war.
If one is going to err, one should err on the side of liberty and freedom.
An Atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An atheist believes that deed must be done instead of prayer said. An atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanished, war eliminated.
Madalyn Murray O’Hair
Life goes on, and one should look ahead and not backward.
Don’t measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.
I think bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are great ideas. They should be allowed to be traded freely and used freely to find their appropriate role in the economy.
Dreams are the guiding words of the soul. Why should I henceforth not love my dreams and not make their riddling images into objects of my daily consideration?
My parents were both born in Virginia, of undistinguished families – second families, perhaps I should say.
People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware.
Every single university student should study philosophy. You need to lead the examined life and question your beliefs. If you don’t learn critical thinking, then political debate degenerates into a contest of slogans.
I have accomplished my childhood dream: to be in show business. Everybody should be so lucky to have their dreams come true. I’ve been truly blessed.
When we’re talking about diversity, it’s not a box to check. It is a reality that should be deeply felt and held and valued by all of us.
I do think there should be some regulations on AI.
I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade… And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party.
If we had no faults of our own, we should not take so much pleasure in noticing those in others.
Caste has divided us. I wish it should be completely abolished from our society.
Popularity should be no scale for the election of politicians. If it would depend on popularity, Donald Duck and The Muppets would take seats in senate.
Employee loyalty begins with employer loyalty. Your employees should know that if they do the job they were hired to do with a reasonable amount of competence and efficiency, you will support them.
Those who give themselves to prayer should in a special manner have always a devotion to St. Joseph; for I know not how any man can think of the Queen of the angels, during the time that she suffered so much with the Infant Jesus, without giving thanks to St. Joseph for the services he rendered them then.
It is more dangerous that even a guilty person should b

It is more dangerous that even a guilty person should be punished without the forms of law than that he should escape.
It was that which gave promise that in due time the weights should be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and that all should have an equal chance. This is the sentiment embodied in that Declaration of Independence.
Botox should be banned for actors, as steroids are for sportsmen. Acting is all about expression; why would you want to iron out a frown?
Five enemies of peace inhabit with us – avarice, ambition, envy, anger, and pride; if these were to be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace.
Petrarch
People have tried to corner the market on being offended, corner the market on language and corner the market on opinion. Should I lose my job ’cause I offended somebody? No, of course not. Your life should never be affected by public opinion.
Patrice O’Neal
I think same sex couples should be able to get married.
I am an atheist, and I believe that religion should not be in the classrooms; it has to be in the churches. In the classrooms, you have to form citizenship, not people with religious beliefs, that corresponds to the private sphere.
Pedro Sanchez
I believe everyone should be equal, and we should all love and support each other and express ourselves the way we want to express ourselves and be whoever we want. That’s my motto.
Dogmatism and skepticism are both, in a sense, absolute philosophies; one is certain of knowing, the other of not knowing. What philosophy should dissipate is certainty, whether of knowledge or ignorance.
The more time you spend contemplating what you should have done… you lose valuable time planning what you can and will do.
If my books had been any worse, I should not have been invited to Hollywood, and if they had been any better, I should not have come.
Almost any illiquid asset today lends itself well to moving onto the blockchain and becoming tokenized. It will create a deeper market with improved price discovery and should increase the value of those assets.
David O. Sacks
The Muse should be a trusted destination for answers. A hand when you need one. Someone to talk you through tough decisions or situations. A starting point.
An award means a lot to me. It brings happiness along with a kind of fear. It brings fear because the award is the responsibility which audiences have put on us. So a singer winning an award should always try to give best of him to the audiences.
Form follows function – that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.
I had a really hard time in Orange County. I was a nerd. I was watching foreign cinema when I was 13 and talking about how ‘Hope and Glory’ should be a foreign film.
Reparations – not just aid – should be provided by those responsible for devastating Iraqi civilian society by cruel sanctions and military actions, and – together with other criminal states – for supporting Saddam Hussein through his worst atrocities and beyond. That is the minimum that honesty requires.
Why should we honour those that die upon the field of battle? A man may show as reckless a courage in entering into the abyss of himself.
Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.
Can a mortal ask questions which God finds unanswerable? Quite easily, I should think. All nonsense questions are unanswerable.
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
More idiots should just shut their mouths.
A man should be just cultured enough to be able to look with suspicion upon culture at first, not second hand.
A man should be mourned at his birth, not at his death.
The patient’s autonomy always, always should be respected, even if it is absolutely contrary – the decision is contrary to best medical advice and what the physician wants.

When your neighbour’s house is on fire, you should help with a bucket of water.
Yahya Jammeh
I’d advise the youth to not get influenced or forced by their elders. They should have own political views and choices and the courage to pick the right leader.

Brigham Young
Men should be like Kleenex, soft, strong and disposable

Men should be like Kleenex, soft, strong and disposable.
The heart and soul of good writing is research; you should write not what you know but what you can find out about.
Popular culture is most powerful when it offers us a vision of how our society should look – or at least reproduces our reality.
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
Science is global. Einstein‘s equation, E=mc2, has to reach everywhere. Science is a beautiful gift to humanity, we should not distort it. Science does not differentiate between multiple races.
The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done.
A budget should reflect the values and priorities of our nation and its people.
Mary Landrieu
If in the twilight of memory we should meet once more, we shall speak again together and you shall sing to me a deeper song.
It would appear that we have reached the limits of what it is possible to achieve with computer technology, although one should be careful with such statements, as they tend to sound pretty silly in 5 years.
John von Neumann
No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they’re pretty, even if they aren’t.
A bridge is born of necessity, but it must establish its own identity. It should harmonize with its surroundings, and the design must transcend the purely local and transform the setting.
I never thought a role model should be negative.
In all science, error precedes the truth, and it is better it should go first than last.
Horace Walpole
Hanging is too good for a man who makes puns; he should be drawn and quoted.
We should not be afraid to go into a new era, to leave the old beyond.
You know obviously my stand on racism is that it’s unacceptable and that we should always stand up to it.
All of us should be on guard against beliefs that flatter ourselves. At the very least, we should check such beliefs against facts.
It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and everlasting beauty of monotony.
Benjamin Britten
Some people wanted champagne and caviar when they should have had beer and hot dogs.
He had read much, if one considers his long life; but his contemplation was much more than his reading. He was wont to say that if he had read as much as other men he should have known no more than other men.
Before you speak ask yourself if what you are going to say is true, is kind, is necessary, is helpful. If the answer is no, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid.
Bernard Meltzer
We’re all humans living on this tiny little rock, floating through space at, like, thousands of miles an hour. We should all just get along.
I say the law should be blind to race, gender and sexual orientation, just as it claims to be blind to wealth and power. There should be no specially protected groups of any kind, except for children, the severely disabled and the elderly, whose physical frailty demands society’s care.
A person should have positive attitude in his life and it will thus reflect on a healthy lifestyle.
Islam is a religion. It is not an ideology. For a Muslim, there is no such thing as to be against modernity. Why should a Muslim not be a modern person? I, as a Muslim, fulfill all the requirements of my religion, and I live in a democratic, social state.
The first fresh hour of every morning should be dedicated to the Lord, whose mercy gladdens it with golden light.
Each contact with a human being is so rare, so precious, one should preserve it.
No one should negotiate their dreams. Dreams must be free to fly high. No government, no legislature, has a right to limit your dreams. You should never agree to surrender your dreams.
If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.
We have to forget the past. History is something that even today we are paying the consequences, and the future is integration. We all as a people, as citizens, as the leadership of both countries should be looking in that direction.
Atifete Jahjaga
When a man points a finger at someone else, he should r

When a man points a finger at someone else, he should remember that four of his fingers are pointing at himself.
Louis Nizer
If Antarctica were music it would be Mozart. Art, and it would be Michelangelo. Literature, and it would be Shakespeare. And yet it is something even greater; the only place on earth that is still as it should be. May we never tame it.
Andrew Denton
I am not someone who believes we should build a fence around our country but I do believe there ought to be some fairness with respect to the rules of this globalization.
The logic of words should yield to the logic of realities.
I do not love to be printed on every occasion, much less to be dunned and teased by foreigners about mathematical things or to be thought by our own people to be trifling away my time about them when I should be about the king’s business.
Prayer is simply talking to God like a friend and should be the easiest thing we do each day.
Everyone should have health insurance? I say everyone should have health care. I’m not selling insurance.
Extemporaneous speaking should be practiced and cultivated. It is the lawyer‘s avenue to the public. However able and faithful he may be in other respects, people are slow to bring him business if he cannot make a speech.
The story of Christian reformation, revival, and renaissance underscores that the darkest hour is often just before the dawn, so we should always be people of hope and prayer, not gloom and defeatism. God the Holy Spirit can turn the situation around in five minutes.
Os Guinness
I think, at a child’s birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.
But he that dares not grasp the thorn Should never crave the rose.
Anne Bronte
The way I see it, you should live everyday like its your birthday.
I believe in a visual language that should be as strong as the written word.
I think we need to look at ourselves first. We should practice what we’re preaching. Otherwise, we are hypocrites.
I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
My career should adapt to me. Fame is like a VIP pass wherever you want to go.
I’m a doer, and whether it was the tsunami in Sri Lanka or the earthquake in Indonesia, I was always saying, ‘I should be there; I should be helping out.’
One should accept failure, and be willing to learn, unlearn and relearn again.
What is most important for democracy is not that great fortunes should not exist, but that great fortunes should not remain in the same hands. In that way there are rich men, but they do not form a class.
It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The ultimate goal of the architect…is to create a paradise. Every house, every product of architecture… should be a fruit of our endeavour to build an earthly paradise for people.
Alvar Aalto
Money never stays with me. It would burn me if it did. I throw it out of my hands as soon as possible, lest it should find its way into my heart.
I spent three days a week for 10 years educating myself in the public library, and it’s better than college. People should educate themselves – you can get a complete education for no money. At the end of 10 years, I had read every book in the library and I’d written a thousand stories.
People overcoming the odds is actually a really important part of humanity, and I don’t think we kind of get to celebrate that as much as we should.
The word ‘good’ has many meanings. For example, if a man were to shoot his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards, I should call him a good shot, but not necessarily a good man.
This stardust won’t settle, because none of us should settle.
Severities should be dealt out all at once, so that their suddenness may give less offense; benefits ought to be handed ought drop by drop, so that they may be relished the more.
Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.
I think that, as life is action and passion, it is required of a man that he should share the passion and action of his time at peril of being judged not to have lived.
We should work for simple, good, undecorated things, but things which are in harmony with the human being and organically suited to the little man in the street.
Alvar Aalto
One of the best things that ever happened to me is that

One of the best things that ever happened to me is that I’m a woman. That is the way all females should feel.
In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.
Any cook should be able to run the country.
I get mad. I get sad. I have all those emotions. But I just like to keep them to myself. I don’t think my fans need to be bothered with if I’m mad or sad about something. I should just be concerned that they are keeping up with my music or I’m making them happy with my show.
He who aspires to paradise should learn to deal with people with kindness.
I’ve known my best friend since I was a baby, and I don’t know what I would do without her. She is always straight with me and can make me laugh hysterically. Everyone should have someone like that in their life.
I don’t believe in guilt; I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person. And don’t judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free.
It’s our hearts and brains that we should exercise more often. You can put on all the makeup you want, but it won’t make your soul pretty.
An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order sign, just Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience.
Your karma should be good, and everything else will follow. Your good karma will always win over your bad luck.
Nobody should come to the movies unless he believes in heroes.
Too many people measure how successful they are by how much money they make or the people that they associate with. In my opinion, true success should be measured by how happy you are.
I used to wonder if it was God’s plan that I should be alone for so much of my life. But I found peace. I found happiness within people and the world.
We should all be obliged to appear before a board every five years and justify our existence… on pain of liquidation.
The advice I’ve been giving to people all my life – that you may not be interested in the dialectic but the dialectic is interested in you; you can’t give up politics, it won’t give you up – was the advice I should have been taking myself.
You should not believe your conscience and your feelings more than the word which the Lord who receives sinners preaches to you.
Walk on water? I know most people out there will be saying that instead of walking on it, I should have taken more of it with my drinks. They are absolutely right.
A good fragrance should have a certain personality that makes people identify the scent with you.
The physician can bury his mistakes, but the architect can only advise his client to plant vines – so they should go as far as possible from home to build their first buildings.
We should respect all religions and just believe in peace, kindness and harmony.
Having read the histories of other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and that the world’s surface being limited, the great object of present humanity should be to take as much of the world as it possibly could.
Cecil Rhodes
We should always look upon ourselves as God’s servants, placed in God’s world, to do his work; and accordingly labour faithfully for him; not with a design to grow rich and great, but to glorify God, and do all the good we possibly can.
The tongue should express what is in the heart.
We should remember that one man is much the same as another, and that he is best who is trained in the severest school.
Thucydides
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.

I’ve always wanted to be somebody, but I see now I should have been more specific.
I am the only person in the world I should like to know thoroughly.
If there’s any object in human experience that’s a precedent for what a computer should be like, it’s a musical instrument: a device where you can explore a huge range of possibilities through an interface that connects your mind and your body, allowing you to be emotionally authentic and expressive.
One should not confuse the craving for life with endorsement of it.
Judges rule on the basis of law, not public opinion, an

Judges rule on the basis of law, not public opinion, and they should be totally indifferent to pressures of the times.
Warren E. Burger
God requires his people to shine as lights in the world. It is not merely the ministers who are required to do this, but every disciple of Christ. Their conversation should be heavenly.
Your most important friendships should be with your own brothers and sisters and with your father and mother. Love your family. Be loyal to them. Have a genuine concern for your brothers and sisters.
One can quite understand vegetarianism. One can quite understand meat-eating. But it is difficult to understand why a person who is a flesh-eater should object to one kind of flesh, namely cow‘s flesh. This is an anomaly which call for explanation.
No disease that can be treated by diet should be treated with any other means.
Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us – even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will.
I always knew I wanted to play golf and go to college. I try hard to be a positive role model, especially on the golf course. I try to carry myself well, and don’t do anything outrageous. I try to play the game like a gentleman and give everyone respect. That’s how the game should be played.
Cultivation of mind should be the ultimate aim of human existence.
We should measure welfare‘s success by how many people leave welfare, not by how many are added.
The important thing is that men should have a purpose in life. It should be something useful, something good.
If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.

Would you bet your paycheck on a weather forecast for tomorrow? If not, then why should this country bet billions on global warming predictions that have even less foundation?
Every man should pull a boat over a mountain once in his life.
We learned that economic growth and environmental protection can and should go hand in hand.
Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed, and in such desperate enterprises? If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.
I’m not really religious but very spiritual. I give money to this company that manufactures hearing aids on a regular basis. More people should really hear me sing. I have a gift from God.
Racists seem obsessed by the idea that illegal workers – the hardest-working, poorest people in America – are somehow getting away with something, sneaking goodies that should be for Americans. You can always avoid this problem by having no social services. This is the refreshing Texas model, and it works a treat.
The best weapon of a dictatorship is secrecy, but the best weapon of a democracy should be the weapon of openness.
Niels Bohr
No woman should ever be quite accurate about her age. It looks so calculating.
Fashion should be stylish and fun.

I don’t think any person in America should die because they are too poor to live.
When people leave the theatre, they should remember a l

When people leave the theatre, they should remember a line, a character, a sequence or emotion. With entertainment, I want to give meaningful cinema.

How often I found where I should be going only by setting out for somewhere else.

I have always believed that I should have had no difficulty in causing my rights to be respected.
Eli Whitney

Neither should a ship rely on one small anchor, nor should life rest on a single hope.
A man’s feet should be planted in his country, but his eyes should survey the world.
Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.
Everything we do should be a result of our gratitude for what God has done for us.
If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man, sir, should keep his friendship in a constant repair.
Experience should be a plus as long as it doesn’t become complacency. If you say, ‘We’re not going to change; we didn’t do it that way before,’ then you’ve become too old.
Poetry should surprise by a fine excess and not by singularity, it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.
As we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours, and this we should do freely and generously.
Every day we are paying more for energy than we should

Major Taylor

A story should have a beginning, a middle and an end, but not necessarily in that order.
Sometimes we should express our gratitude for the small and simple things like the scent of the rain, the taste of your favorite food, or the sound of a loved one‘s voice.

In the matter of justice, all should be equal in your eyes.
Every child should have the opportunity to receive a quality education.
Every child should have a caring adult in their lives. And that’s not always a biological parent or family member. It may be a friend or neighbor. Often times it is a teacher.
What is ominous is the ease with which some people go from saying that they don’t like something to saying that the government should forbid it. When you go down that road, don’t expect freedom to survive very long.
The secret we should never let the gamemasters know is that they don’t need any rules.
Gary Gygax

There’s one thing everyone should understand: I like my character.
Good news is rare these days, and every glittering ounce of it should be cherished and hoarded and worshipped and fondled like a priceless diamond.
I have a personal philosophy in life: If somebody else can do something that I’m doing, they should do it. And what I want to do is find things that would represent a unique contribution to the world – the contribution that only I, and my portfolio of talents, can make happen. Those are my priorities in life.
You should realize that there is only one version of yourself in the world and that your flaws make you beautiful.
Politics is a noble activity. We should revalue it, practise it with vocation and a dedication that requires testimony, martyrdom, that is to die for the common good.
John Muir, the famous naturalist, wrote in his journal that you should never go to Alaska as a young man because you’ll never be satisfied with any other place as long as you live. And there’s a lot of truth to that.
Figuring out what the next big trend is tells us what we should focus on.
Let me define a leader. He must have vision and passion and not be afraid of any problem. Instead, he should know how to defeat it. Most importantly, he must work with integrity.
When we see persons of worth, we should think of equaling them; when we see persons of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves.
I hate prejudice, discrimination, and snobbishness of any kind – it always reflects on the person judging and not the person being judged. Everyone should be treated equally.
I desire to press forward for direction to my Master in all things; but as to trusting to my own obedience and righteousness, I should be worse than a fool and ten times worse than a madman.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.
Every day without fail one should consider himself as dead. There is a saying of the elders that goes, ‘Step from under the eaves and you’re a dead man. Leave the gate and the enemy is waiting.’ This is not a matter of being careful. It is to consider oneself as dead beforehand.
Yamamoto Tsunetomo
Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.
Judges should be in the business of declaring what the law is using the traditional tools of interpretation, rather than pronouncing the law as they might wish it to be in light of their own political views.
I think goals should never be easy, they should force you to work, even if they are uncomfortable at the time.
A lot of people told me I should be quiet about being bisexual and not say anything, but for me this is a part of my identity.
They say the universe is expanding. That should help with the traffic.
I think that the Bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin, but the Bible also teaches that pride is a sin, jealousy is a sin, and hate is a sin, evil thoughts are a sin. So I don’t think that homosexuality should be chosen as the overwhelming sin that we are doing today.
I think you should always bear in mind that entropy is not on your side.
Nation should be rest assured Pakistan is a safe atomic power. No one can cast an evil eye on it.
For God so loved the World that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Robert Hall
Music is something that should give you peace.
A hat should be taken off when you greet a lady and left off for the rest of your life. Nothing looks more stupid than a hat.
The basic thing a man should know is how to change a tyre and how to drive a tractor. Whatever that bearded dude is doing on the Dos Equis beer commercials sets the bar. That’s your guy. Every man should be aiming to be like him. The beard is just the tip of the iceberg.
If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.

People who enjoy meetings should not be in charge of anything.

Neville Chamberlain
Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
Amelia Earhart
No one can avoid death; it is inevitable. Therefore, I should create in my mind a kind of willingness and accepting for that event without any fear.
Any item in your wardrobe should satisfy one of two criteria: utility and joy.
Perfectionism is not a quest for the best. It is a pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us that nothing we do will ever be good enough – that we should try again.
Real education should consist of drawing the goodness and the best out of our own students. What better books can there be than the book of humanity?
The sea does not reward those who are too anxious, too greedy, or too impatient. One should lie empty, open, choiceless as a beach – waiting for a gift from the sea.
Life is about the gray areas. Things are seldom black a

Life is about the gray areas. Things are seldom black and white, even when we wish they were and think they should be, and I like exploring this nuanced terrain.
Cinema should make you forget you are sitting in a theater.
Roman Polanski
Public servants should be focused on serving the public – not any special interest group, and good governance should be an expectation – not an exception.
A woman should be like a single flower, not a whole bouquet.
A woman should never be seen eating or drinking, unless it be lobster salad and Champagne, the only true feminine and becoming viands.

No decisions should ever be made without asking the question, is this for the common good?
The majority of meetings should be discussions that lead to decisions.
The only people who should really sin are the people who can sin and grin.
Our votes must go together with our guns. After all, any vote we shall have, shall have been the product of the gun. The gun which produces the vote should remain its security officer – its guarantor. The people’s votes and the people’s guns are always inseparable twins.
We do not pray to God to instruct Him as to what He should do; neither for a moment must we presume to dictate the method of the divine working.
We should be inspired by people… who show that human beings can be kind, brave, generous, beautiful, strong-even in the most difficult circumstances.
Rachel Corrie
Many people feel so pressured by the expectations of others that it causes them to be frustrated, miserable and confused about what they should do. But there is a way to live a simple, joy-filled, peaceful life, and the key is learning how to be led by the Holy Spirit, not the traditions or expectations of man.
A person should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first and honest people are screwed first.
A man’s own judgment should be the final appeal in all that relates to himself.
It is not the soul alone that should be healthy; if the mind is healthy in a healthy body, all will be healthy and much better prepared to give God greater service.
If we love our country, we should also love our countrymen.
The word ‘romance,’ according to the dictionary, means excitement, adventure, and something extremely real. Romance should last a lifetime.
There are horrible people who, instead of solving a problem, tangle it up and make it harder to solve for anyone who wants to deal with it. Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.
Where I think people are being offensive to religion in this country – whichever religion that might be, but particularly the one I and many other Christians subscribe to – well, we will just call it out, and we will demand the same respect that people should provide to all religions.
If you should put even a little on a little and should do this often, soon this would become big.
One should eat to live, not live to eat.
I am fully aware that everybody has a right to succeed, and success should be with ethics.
The true genius shudders at incompleteness – and usually prefers silence to saying something which is not everything it should be.
Good psychology should include all the methodological techniques, without having loyalty to one method, one idea, or one person.
I’m not sure what the future holds but I do know that I’m going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said ‘Nic, it is what it is, it’s not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is.’
My doctor tells me I should start slowing it down – but there are more old drunks than there are old doctors so let’s all have another round.
Children should neither be seen or heard from – ever again.
Children should have enough freedom to be themselves – once they’ve learned the rules.
We all pay for life with death, so everything in between should be free.
We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started.
Everyone should have their mind blown once a day.

Everyone should have their mind blown once a day.
I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?
No one has yet realized the wealth of sympathy, the kindness and generosity hidden in the soul of a child. The effort of every true education should be to unlock that treasure.
My mother always called me an ugly weed, so I never was aware of anything until I was older. Plain girls should have someone telling them they are beautiful. Sometimes this works miracles.
If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses.
All my life, I always wanted to be somebody. Now I see that I should have been more specific.
Jane Wagner
Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history.
A wise man should consider that health is the greatest of human blessings, and learn how by his own thought to derive benefit from his illnesses.
Hippocrates
No one is the same, and we all have different life experiences. It’s not my place to judge them or for them to judge me. We should all be accountable for our own lives.
The knower and the known are one. Simple people imagine that they should see God as if he stood there and they here. This is not so. God and I, we are one in knowledge.
I was a warm-up DJ for many years so I know how to build a crowd, what record goes with the next, it’s all about understanding the dance floor and how the energy and flow should go coordinating to what the crowd want or might need.
A lot of times they don’t want to hear it. But you know, if some good is done to you, you should pass it on.
I’ve spent my whole life not talking to people, and I don’t see why I should start now.
I hate wars and violence but if they come then I don’t see why we women should just wave our men a proud goodbye and then knit them balaclavas.
Nancy Wake
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
If an injury has to be done to a man it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared.
If you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work.
In all life one should comfort the afflicted, but verily, also, one should afflict the comfortable, and especially when they are comfortably, contentedly, even happily wrong.
The ‘morality of compromise’ sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don’t compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.
As far as I’m concerned, it’s a damned shame that a field as potentially dynamic and vital as journalism should be overrun with dullards, bums, and hacks, hag-ridden with myopia, apathy, and complacence, and generally stuck in a bog of stagnant mediocrity.
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.
Life is a great sunrise. I do not see why death should not be an even greater one.
Great literature should do some good to the reader: must quicken his perception though dull, and sharpen his discrimination though blunt, and mellow the rawness of his personal opinions.
A. E. Housman
A youth, when at home, should be filial and, abroad, respectful to his elders. He should be earnest and truthful. He should overflow in love to all and cultivate the friendship of the good. When he has time and opportunity, after the performance of these things, he should employ them in polite studies.
The Hebrews have done more to civilize men than any other nation. If I were an atheist, and believed blind eternal fate, I should still believe that fate had ordained the Jews to be the most essential instrument for civilizing the nations.
We should remember that there are nations which meet more than 30 to 60% of their power requirements through the nuclear power system.
I have offended God and mankind because my work didn’t reach the quality it should have.
Stick to the classics, and you can’t ever go wrong. I see old ladies on the street who have fabulous style and realize it’s because they are probably wearing really classic items that they’ve had for years and years. I think if you find something that suits you, you should just stick to it.
There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.
Of all the tough decisions in life, choosing between the job you need and the family you love should not be one of them.
Whatever woman may cast her lot with mine, should any ever do so, it is my intention to do all in my power to make her happy and contented; and there is nothing I can imagine that would make me more unhappy than to fail in the effort.
You should be smart enough to know that you don't know

You should be smart enough to know that you don’t know everything. But you have to believe in yourself. I certainly do.
At a dinner party one should eat wisely but not too well, and talk well but not too wisely.
Old women should not seek to be perfumed.
Archilochus
The only thing that should surprise us is that there are still some things that can surprise us.
Solemnity is proper in church, but things that are proper in church are not necessarily proper outside, and vice versa. For example, I can say a prayer while washing my teeth, but that does not mean I should wash my teeth in church.
Your dresses should be tight enough to show you’re a woman and loose enough to show you’re a lady.
You should run your life not by the calendar but how you feel, and what you’re interests are and ambitions.
Social media has given us this idea that we should all have a posse of friends when in reality, if we have one or two really good friends, we are lucky.
If the Confederacy fails, there should be written on its tombstone: Died of a Theory.
Jefferson Davis
If you’re going to wear a cowboy hat, you’re going to have to go all the way. You should have livestock around you, settle all of your disputes with a pistol, and ride a horse absolutely everywhere.
One should respect public opinion insofar as is necessary to avoid starvation and keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny.
God loves you unconditionally, as you are and not as you should be, because nobody is as they should be.
Brennan Manning
You should always go to other people’s funerals; otherwise, they won’t come to yours.
No partner in a love relationship… should feel that he has to give up an essential part of himself to make it viable.
May Sarton

Our prayers should be for blessings in general, for God knows best what is good for us.
People will visit Mars, they will settle mars, and we should because it’s cool.
Dining should be a delightful and a beautiful experience.
The logs of wood which move down the river together Are driven apart by every wave. Such inevitable parting Should not be the cause of misery.
Nagarjuna
Man should be master of his environment, not its slave. That is what freedom means.
Anthony Eden
We must cultivate our own garden. When man was put in the garden of Eden he was put there so that he should work, which proves that man was not born to rest.
The most important part are the fans, that people going home are happy. It’s their time off, and you should give them something to enjoy.
The earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it.
I realized that if my thoughts immediately affect my body, I should be careful about what I think. Now if I get angry, I ask myself why I feel that way. If I can find the source of my anger, I can turn that negative energy into something positive.
The ministers of kings should learn to moderate their ambition. The higher they elevate themselves above their proper sphere, the greater the danger that they will fall.
Louis XIV
The fact that I am blind is not what defines my life. It should be of no more interest than my blood type. People wonder if there is a relationship between my lack of sight and the way I sing. But there’s no connection.
The home should be the treasure chest of living.
Le Corbusier
You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage. Instead, it’s important for you to understand that your experience facing and overcoming adversity is actually one of your biggest advantages.
It is a matter of shame that in the morning the birds should be awake earlier than you.
It is not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather, our concern must be to live while we’re alive – to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are.
Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his

Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked.
The solution as consumers is – perhaps surprisingly – to take adverts very, very seriously. We should ask ourselves what it is that we find lovely in them – the visions of friendship, togetherness, repose, or whatever. And then consider what would actually help us find these qualities in our lives.
You should do what other people do, unless you have a very good reason not to.
There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they can help, and what they cannot.
A baby is God’s opinion that life should go on.

If the Sun and Moon should ever doubt, they’d immediately go out.
I learned, when I look in the mirror and tell my story, that I should be myself and not peep whatever everybody is doing.
I do not know anyone who has got to the top without hard work. That is the recipe. It will not always get you to the top, but should get you pretty near.
Students must have initiative; they should not be mere imitators. They must learn to think and act for themselves – and be free.
It is not God’s will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy.
I understood at a very early age that in nature, I felt everything I should feel in church but never did. Walking in the woods, I felt in touch with the universe and with the spirit of the universe.
I think people should have fun. And don’t get so down on yourself. Enjoy life and be the best person you can be.
Life should be great rather than long.
The Indian Summer of life should be a little sunny and a little sad, like the season, and infinite in wealth and depth of tone, but never hustled.
Swans sing before they die – ’twere no bad thing should certain persons die before they sing.
There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights.
Smedley Butler
If they want peace, nations should avoid the pin-pricks that precede cannon shots.
Ministers should not pray so loud, and long, as to exhaust the strength. It is not necessary to weary the throat and lungs in prayer. God’s ear is ever open to hear the heart-felt petitions of his humble servants, and he does not require them to wear out the organs of speech in addressing him.
When government – in pursuit of good intentions – tries to rearrange the economy, legislate morality, or help special interests, the cost come in inefficiency, lack of motivation, and loss of freedom. Government should be a referee, not an active player.
All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.
We must listen to the concerns of our people without dismissing them. When people see something wrong, there is something wrong. When our people see corruption, it means there is corruption. When our people see that their resources are being stolen by certain people, it means this is happening, and we should listen.
A society should be judged by how it treats its children. A country that fails to invest in its children is imperilling its future.
What is absurd and monstrous about war is that men who have no personal quarrel should be trained to murder one another in cold blood.
Culture is mix. Culture means a mix of things from other sources. And my town, Istanbul, was this kind of mix. Istanbul, in fact, and my work, is a testimony to the fact that East and West combine cultural gracefully, or sometimes in an anarchic way, came together, and that is what we should search for.
Every woman should have four pets in her life. A mink in her closet, a jaguar in her garage, a tiger in her bed, and a jackass who pays for everything.
I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We’ve created life in our own image.
If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man’s life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.
Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we’re looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn’t test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.
Fables should be taught as fables, myths as myths, and miracles as poetic fantasies. To teach superstitions as truths is a most terrible thing. The child mind accepts and believes them, and only through great pain and perhaps tragedy can he be in after years relieved of them.
Hypatia
I really like women who get emotional about babies and

I really like women who get emotional about babies and puppies. I’ve met some incredibly cool women who are tough, but the woman you marry should have a really soft side.
Every day should be a good day. People fool themselves that they’ll be here forever.
Now, I think that I should have known that he was magic all along. I did know it – but I should have guessed that it would be too much to ask to grow old with and see our children grow up together. So now, he is a legend when he would have preferred to be a man.
All men should strive to learn before they die, what they are running from, and to, and why.
I think a child should be allowed to take his father’s or mother’s name at will on coming of age. Paternity is a legal fiction.

People with visions should go to the doctor.
It is well that war is so terrible, otherwise we should grow too fond of it.
Sometimes the most happy people in life are the ones with nothing. We can’t lose sight of the little things in life that should make us the happiest.
Ryan Cabrera
Music should be your escape.
No one should fear to undertake any task in the name of our Saviour, if it is just and if the intention is purely for His holy service.
