[a squad of archers aim at Shrek] Captain of Guards: Shall I give the order, my Lord? Lord Farquaad: No. I have a better idea...
Han Solo: [to Chewie about the Ewoks] Well, short help is better than no help at all.
James Bond: [about getting shot] In your defense, a moving target is harder to hit. Eve: Then you'd better keep moving.
James Bond: [to Sévérine when they are in the shower together] I like you better without your Beretta. Sévérine: I feel naked without it.
Varinia: You're afraid of him, aren't you? It's no use trying to be better than him, it won't work. Marcus Licinius Crassus: We shall see...
Carl Fredricksen: You'd better get up, Russell. Or else, the tigers will come and eat you. Russell: Tigers don't live in South America. Zoology.
V: May I inquire as to how you have avoided detection? Evey Hammond: A fake ID works better than a Guy Fawkes mask.
Deke Thornton: [upset] Harrigan! Next time, you better plan your massacre more carefully or I'll start with you!
Lord Summerisle: [referring to sacrifices] Animals are fine, but their acceptability is limited. A little child is even better, but not *nearly* as effective as the right kind of adult.
Father Barry: Some people think the Crucifixion only took place on Calvary. Well, they better wise up!
Daniel Hochleitner: Your hole, it is better now? John Book: Yeah, it's pretty much healed. Daniel Hochleitner: Good. Then you can go home.
Had I stayed longer in some primaries, I would have probably done better in states like Nevada, California, and New Mexico - but I ran out of the money after the second primary in New Hampshire.
There's nothing inherently or patently wrong with anybody who does well, works hard, earns a living, betters themselves. I'm not against any of these things. It's about how you make that money, and then what you do with it.
You might make a lot of money, but it's very hard to get out from under that rug. The more you can reinvent yourself, the better - and unfortunately TV is designed not to let you redesign yourself.
For example, one way of giving yourself a strong incentive to reach your goal is to commit to pay money to someone if you fail. Better yet, you can specify that you will have to pay a certain sum to a cause that you detest.
Whenever I made money I invested in myself... I bought whatever I needed to make my career better. I never really spent money on other stuff, like buying expensive cars.
I've taught the better class of tourist both to see and not to see; to lift their eyes above and beyond the inessentials, and thrill to our western Nature in her majesty.
It is better to do one's own duty, however defective it may be, than to follow the duty of another, however well one may perform it. He who does his duty as his own nature reveals it, never sins.
It is human nature to be shortsighted and to lose momentum to make changes once the story is out of the headlines and there aren't financial incentives or political rewards. We owe to ourselves to learn from the past so we can try to do better.
The classic rule of thumb is that if you are an intellectual ideological magazine, you do better in opposition than you do if your views are reflected by people in power.
We must do everything in our power to keep families together, and to use common sense in our immigration laws. Children deserve better than to lose a parent because of an inflexible law.
