It can be kind of gruesome at times making things alone.

As much as I long for a sort of security and consistency sometimes I do enjoy sort of being busted around. I really don't know what's happening sometimes next week let alone this year.

In my cranky old age I actually prefer recording alone now on 'The Simpsons ' for example because I find that the director can just focus on what I'm doing and I can do a lot of variations. A lot of times when I record with a group I'll stay after class for another hour or two.

Science and vision are not opposites or even at odds. They need each other. I sometimes hear other startup folks say something along the lines of: 'If entrepreneurship was a science then anyone could do it.'

I think sometimes if you are alone you are freer because your time is your own.

In the first 50 years of the filibuster it was used only 35 times. But the last Congress alone had 112 cloture motions filed plus threats of more. This is the tyranny of the minority.

I'm a grown woman and sometimes I might be a little fat you know? Am I alone there? Not really.

In the laughing times we know that we are lucky and in the quiet times we know that we are blessed. And we will not be alone.

There are times when the only access I have to the truest person that I am is when I'm alone and trying to solve a sentence. It's exciting even when it's frustrating even when I can't do it right.

He was thinking alone and seriously racking his brain to find a direction for this single force four times multiplied with which he did not doubt as with the lever for which Archimedes sought they should succeed in moving the world when some one tapped gently at his door.

I thought about how we need to make children feel that there are times in their lives when they need to be alone and quiet and to be able to accept their aloneness.

When I'm alone I work sometimes with music sometimes without and sometimes just listening to NPR.

Journalists do not live by words alone although sometimes they have to eat them.
