World
(page 24)
In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield.
Simplicity is the most difficult thing to secure in this world; it is the last limit of experience and the last effort of genius.
Somebody once told me I treated my smart phone like Wilson, the volleyball Tom Hanks turns into a friend when he's stranded on a desert island in that movie 'Castaway.' It's an apt comparison: parenting a toddler occasionally feels like being marooned, and your phone is your only connection to the rest of the world.
You decide the things that ultimately you do. You have choices in this world, and that's how I live.
I'm not the smartest fellow in the world, but I can sure pick smart colleagues.
What is design? It's where you stand with a foot in two worlds — the world of technology and the world of people and human purposes — and you try to bring the two together.
Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.
In the developed world, we are surrounded by electronics — from the computers on our desks to the smart phones in our pockets to the thermostats in our homes to our data in the virtual cloud.
Do not be misled by what you see around you, or be influenced by what you see. You live in a world which is a playground of illusion, full of false paths, false values and false ideals. But you are not part of that world.
We must show there is good in society. If you read the newspapers, you think there are only crooks in this world, but that's not true.
He who has faith has... an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well — even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly.
'Divergent' was my utopian world. I mean, that wasn't the plan. I never even set out to write dystopian fiction, that's just what I had when I was finished. At the beginning, I was just writing about a place I found interesting and a character with a compelling story, and as I began to build the world, I realized that it was my utopia.
One of the most glorious messes in the world is the mess created in the living room on Christmas day. Don't clean it up too quickly.
Let a new earth rise. Let another world be born. Let a bloody peace be written in the sky. Let a second generation full of courage issue forth; let a people loving freedom come to growth.
Barack Obama wants to change America. Barack Obama wants America to be more like the rest of the world. We don't want to be like the rest of the world. We want to be the United States of America.
To have so many years in the rap industry and so many number one songs, and sold so many millions of records, introduced the world to people like Cool & Dre, DJ Khaled, Pitbull, Rick Ross, Trick Daddy, Remy Ma, Big Pun, Rico Love... I could go on and on. Having been able to influence the rap game for so long is very important to me.
This is the way the world ends, not with a bang, but a whimper.
I just feel out of this world sometimes.
The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot forever fence it out.
Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done.
