There's a saying. If you want someone to love you forever, buy a dog, feed it and keep it around.

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours; if they don't they never were.

Fitness is not about being better than someone else... It's about being better than you used to be.

Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.

Winning is fun, but those moments that you can touch someone's life in a very positive way are better.

I think people forget that it doesn't take a big donation to help someone, just a lot of little donations.

When you are not practicing, remember somewhere someone is practicing, and when you meet him, he will win.

A smile is so sexy, yet so warm. When someone genuinely smiles at you, it's the greatest feeling in the world.

There's nothing I value more than the closeness of friends and family, a smile as I pass someone on the street.

As an actor, the biggest compliment you can get, in my book is for someone to believe that you're the character.

You never know what's going on in someone's life. You never know what's really going on behind what they present.

Any problem, big or small, within a family, always seems to start with bad communication. Someone isn't listening.

To be offended is a choice we make; it is not a condition inflicted or imposed upon us by someone or something else.

My definition of an intellectual is someone who can listen to the William Tell Overture without thinking of the Lone Ranger.

You can't please everyone. There's always going to be someone disappointed, so you might as well make yourself happy and Be You.

Nearly every moment of every day, we have the opportunity to give something to someone else - our time, our love, our resources.

Maybe true love isn't out there for me, but I can sublimate my loneliness with the notion that true love is out there for someone.

I don't consider myself a pessimist. I think of a pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain. And I feel soaked to the skin.

I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.

What if every relationship you've ever been in, is someone slowly figuring out they didn't like you as much as they hoped they would?

The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but giving them the opportunity to create themselves.

I'm not one to take revenge. If someone does something wrong to me I leave it in the hands of the universe to take care of that person.

Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.

If you're you, it doesn't matter if you're the most boring person in the world: someone will like you. You're not trying to be anyone else.

I place an enormous premium on loyalty. If someone betrays me, I can forgive them rationally, but emotionally I have found it impossible to do so.

People always tell you, 'Be humble. Be humble.' When was the last time someone told you to be amazing? Be great! Be great! Be awesome! Be awesome!

Memories are just stories we tell ourselves about our past; and that's often why they don't match when we've shared the same experiences with someone.

You can't make someone learn something - you really can't teach someone something - they have to want to learn it. And if they want to learn, they will.

A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

Yes, it's true I once knocked out a horse. It was at a fiesta in my mother's home town of Guarare. Someone bet me a bottle of whiskey that I couldn't do it.

Bullying is never fun, it's a cruel and terrible thing to do to someone. If you are being bullied, it is not your fault. No one deserves to be bullied, ever.

There really can be no peace without justice. There can be no justice without truth. And there can be no truth, unless someone rises up to tell you the truth.

Lying is a cooperative act. Think about it. A lie has no power whatsoever by its mere utterance. Its power emerges when someone else agrees to believe the lie.

My story is going to be completely different than someone else's story in terms of hard work. What I might feel like is hard work, another person is dying to do.

Loneliness is my least favorite thing about life. The thing that I'm most worried about is just being alone without anybody to care for or someone who will care for me.

Hold up a mirror and ask yourself what you are capable of doing, and what you really care about. Then take the initiative - don't wait for someone else to ask you to act.

You'll be someone's favourite, and someone else is going to hate you, aren't they? I know that I can't please everyone, but what I can do is be myself and be true to my values.

A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them.

I think we always look up to legends and people who not only win but give us a larger than life role model... I think Michael Jordan is this, someone who became bigger than his sport.

Try to see the good in others. When you're tempted to judge someone, make an effort to see their goodness. Your willingness to look for the best in people will subconsciously bring it forth.

Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad, and that's why I call you dad, because you are so special to me. You taught me the game and you taught me how to play it right.

Empathy is about standing in someone else's shoes, feeling with his or her heart, seeing with his or her eyes. Not only is empathy hard to outsource and automate, but it makes the world a better place.

You just need to put yourself in someone else's shoes and then see how they feel and then you will understand why they are reacting or why they are behaving the way that they are behaving. We need to be fair.

With me, what you see is what you get. Yes, call me naive, but I love life. I am happy, and for that, I make no apologies. I do like to see the best in people, and when someone is nice to my face, I tend to believe them.

People don't care about what someone says about you in a movie - or even what you say, right? They care about what you build. And if you can make something that makes people's life better, then that's something that's really good.

In my view, the best of humanity is in our exercise of empathy and compassion. It's when we challenge ourselves to walk in the shoes of someone whose pain or plight might seem so different than yours that it's almost incomprehensible.

A true community is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social web network. It's about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role.

I am someone who can't hold on to negativity or hold on to grudges. I might feel something at a certain point, but I get tired after that. I don't carry it with me. I forgive and forget very easily, and that's the only way to be happy and peaceful.

I don't mind being criticised, because I am not that easy to knock down, and no-one can destroy me. But I am bothered by the stupid people who call me dirty, brainless, and an idiot. You don't say words like these to someone who you know nothing about.

I want someone who is my partner in life. Who supports me, and I support her. I can share all my experiences in life with her, and she can share hers back with me. Not only do we love each other, but we accept, embrace, nurture, and care for each other.
