Decades have a delusive edge to them. They are not, of course, really periods at all, except as any other ten years may be. But we, looking at them, are caught by the different name each bears, and give them different attributes, and tie labels on them, as if they were flowers in a border.

In drawing, nothing is better than the first attempt.

A manager should stay as far away as possible from his players. I don’t know if I said ten words to Frank Robinson while he played for me.
I wrote about a bird that cleaned a crocodile’s teeth. The story was so good that my teacher could not believe that a ten-year-old could write that well.

Last night I dreamt I ate a ten pound marshmallow. When I woke up the pillow was gone.
Problems are like toilet paper. You pull on one and ten more come.
There’s no “magic secret”; writing is like everything else; ten percent inspiration or talent, and ninety percent hard work. Persistence; keeping at it till you get there. As Agnes de Mille said, it means working every day—bored, tired, weary, or with a fever of a hundred and two.

There are times when one cannot accept facts for fear of shattering one’s being.

Be patient? That’s all you’ve got for me?” Steve complained ten minutes later. Kylie glanced up at Perry, circling them as they sat behind the office, and then frowned at Steve. “I don’t know why everyone thinks I’m the love guru.

Ten thousand pounds is the legal value of a negligently taken life, of a child or a parent. A cold and somewhat mean-spirited calculation: you would do better if you slipped on a paving-stone and broke a front tooth.
I meet people at book signings. My record now, for signing, is ten and a half hours in one sitting.
One, two, three four five,

All is well, no whining then!
All is well I am alive,
Six,seven,eight nine ten,
All is well, no whining then!
We only went to the moon for military reasons. The space enthusiasts of the day kept saying, “Oh, we’re on the moon; we should be on Mars in ten years.” That’s if it was driven by exploration, but it’s never been driven by exploration.
Here’s the thing: life is now. It’s not ten pounds from now, it’s not twenty pounds from now, it’s not a million dollars from now. It’s right now. And you just have to take a chance.

I suppose that every time there is difficulty. I remember about Space Mountain: It took us ten years before we found the technology that would allow such a ride. And during these ten years, I had a model that I kept, waiting for the technology we needed.
Material advancement has its share in moral and intellectual progress. Becky Sharp’s acute remark that it is not difficult to be virtuous on ten thousand a year has its applications to nations; and it is futile to expect a hungry and squalid population to be anything but violent and gross.

I quit drinking, and I figure if I go to ten Yankee games this year without drinking I’ll save $32,000.
So what if Brian made me feel like fireworks were going off inside me. He could also make me feel like a big fat clod of heartsick dirt. It was like he could take any emotion I had and make it ten times stronger. Which is great when it’s happiness but pretty darn awful if it’s anything sad.
When I look at ‘Napoleon Dynamite’s style I’m reminded of how I spoke when I was an eight-year-old boy. It was just like capturing the essence of, ‘Duh!’ It was just like the stuff that I would say when I was like eight, nine, ten years old.
I’m pretty much right on schedule. Start off slow, finish up strong. I don’t know why everyone panics. I’ve been doing this for ten years now. Why change?

Ninety percent of metabolic oxygen comes from breathing. Ten percent comes from food.

I’ve been collecting articles on extremophile bacteria for at least the last ten years.

Which shew them ten times more than common vices,

The legendary Buddhist flower udumbara is believed to blossom once every three millennia! What about the Flower of Peace? In every ten million years?
Dedication and time management are two of the biggest things. I hate being late for anything. If anything, I prefer to be ten minutes early rather than thirty seconds late. I’m also very dedicated and I want to do my best in everything I do. I believe swimming has helped transfer that into my life as well.
Because you have no memory for things that happened ten or twenty years ago, you’re still mouthing the same nonsense as two thousand years ago. Worse, you cling with might and main to such absurdities as ‘race,’ ‘class,’ ‘nation,’ and the obligation to observe a religion and repress your love.

Ten strong horses could not pull an empty baby carriage if they worked independently of each other.
If you made me the national commissioner of football, I’d tell you one thing that I would mandate. The second Saturday in September, we’re going to have conference day.

As far as feeling like I need to prove myself or this or that, I don’t feel that way anymore. I’ve been in this business for ten years, so I’m kind of past all that. I was there where, as a female, you always feel like you have to prove yourself; you have to outwork them. But all I worry about now is being prepared.
With the rise of the Internet, fashion did become part of the global entertainment industry in the last ten years, and will follow the digital evolution of the music or film industry.

You should be happy to spend ten to twelve hours a day wherever you work.

Osama bin Laden has ten look-alikes to fool us Americans. Ten look-alikes, and he’s married to five of them.
