If companies don't think systemically enough — if they try to capture too much of the value — eventually, innovation moves somewhere else.

Occasionally I get fed up, going to visit a factory, when I am being shown around by the chairman, who clearly hasn't got a clue, and I try to get hold of the factory manager, but I can't because the chairman wants to make sure he's the one in all the photographs.

I feel I'm most beautiful when I have less makeup on and I'm at home with people surrounding me that support me, and I know they will never judge me or try to change me.

I am trying to do the best work I possibly can and making movies that will have resonance for years to come. I think if you try for an Oscar or a goal like that, the more people are going to see it as transparent. It's not on my radar. If it happens, great, but I'm happy to continue working as I am, really.

Is the purpose of free elections to allow the most clever and vicious person to aggregate power, or is the purpose of free elections to enable the American people to have a serious conversation about their country's future and try to find both a policy and a personality that they think will carry to them that better future?

I'll try anything. What are they gonna do, kick me out of show business?

Penny Marshall

I try to celebrate all the holidays that the Scriptures talk about.

Amar'e Stoudemire

I try to avoid looking forward or backward, and try to keep looking upward.

There was a French singer, Francoise Hardy — I used to look at her pictures and try to dress like her.

When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. Let your reason get you back up.

Les Brown

I try to apply colors like words that shape poems, like notes that shape music.

Joan Miro

Everything will probably never be OK. But we have to try for it.

I try and make it possible for beginners to start training MMA and not be scared of it as a sport. I try to actually give them the skill set that is necessary — to feel comfortable, maybe not on a big level. And not just Russia, but worldwide.

After high school, I was going to move out to L.A. and try to pursue my dreams of acting. My parents said, 'That's fine. We support you, but you have to go to school', which was fine because I'm a studious person anyway; I enjoy it.

With a gentleman I am always a gentleman and a half, and with a fraud I try to be a fraud and a half.

I like to keep a book underneath the pillow that I'm not sleeping on so I can reach over and grab it when I wake up. I don't always do that, but I like to. I try to make sure it's a book and not my laptop. I also try not to get too excited about who might've been trying to contact me while I was asleep.

Be yourself. Don't try too hard — it shows.

Amar'e Stoudemire

I think you have a pact with an audience in every picture, and I think the pact is to try and be truthful and to be real.

James L. Brooks

There are two kinds of people, those who do the work and those who take the credit. Try to be in the first group; there is less competition there.

Indira Gandhi

Throughout the day, my phone will variously chirp, burp and growl — it's like living with a velociraptor. The last time I went to try to shut it off, the thing bit me.
