I did 13-something years of talking to wrestlers and promoters about why they did certain things and why they booked matches a certain way and what they were thinking and whether they were satisfied with the draw. And I got a lot of insight in the business.
Without the element of uncertainty the bringing off of even the greatest business triumph would be dull routine and eminently unsatisfying.
Business is never so healthy as when like a chicken it must do a certain amount of scratching around for what it gets.
In this world nothing can be said to be certain except death and taxes.
I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact if anything I am the prod.
At her birthday my seven-year-old daughter will say that she wants these big cakes and certain expensive toys as presents and I can't say no to her. It would just break my heart. But when I was little for birthdays we just played outside and we were happy if we got any cake.
It's odd the things that people remember. Parents will arrange a birthday party certain it will stick in your mind forever. You'll have a nice time then two years later you'll be like 'There was a pony there? Really? And a clown with one leg?'
I was blessed with certain gifts and talents and God gave them to me to be the best person I can be and to have a positive impact on other people.
Certainly the best works and of greatest merit for the public have proceeded from the unmarried or childless men.
There is no doubt that America remains the premier political economic military power in the world and I both expect and count on it remaining so because I think that's certainly in our best interest but also the best interests of the world.
I just want to continue to break barriers and to show the industry and the world that beauty is diverse and you don't have to be a certain stereotype to be beautiful.
I know as an actor there is a certain liberation auditioning for a role that has no beauty requirements.
What is important then is not that the critic should possess a correct abstract definition of beauty for the intellect but a certain kind of temperament the power of being deeply moved by the presence of beautiful objects.
Beauty is as relative as light and dark. Thus there exists no beautiful woman none at all because you are never certain that a still far more beautiful woman will not appear and completely shame the supposed beauty of the first.
I've never had any illusions about being a lead actor in films because lead actors have to be of a certain kind. Apart from the beauty of looks and figure which I cannot claim to have there's just a particular kind of ordinary-Joe quality that a film star needs to have.
Beauty opened all the doors it got me things I didn't even know I wanted and things I certainly didn't deserve.
Beauty is desired in order that it may be befouled not for its own sake but for the joy brought by the certainty of profaning it.
