My concentration was really on getting to university and becoming a doctor. My parents let me know that school marks were important. Achievement was something which came by hard work.
For me, it is important to win titles and for that I need to work hard, stay healthy and be able to compete. The rest, I always say, it comes.
It seems we always exceed even our own expectations-after a lot of hard work, though!
I'm a Ronald Reagan conservative, I'm an economic conservative, I'm strong military. But I also voice and speak and work hard on the social issues.
I am not the greatest actor in the world, but the reason I keep working is that I work hard and show up every day and be easy to work with.
Artistry is important. Skill, hard work, rewriting, editing, and careful, careful craft: All of these are necessary. These are what separate the beginners from experienced artists.

I'm a realist, not a sugar coater. I believe in always letting people know what their obstacles are. And at the end of the day, I just want to be respected for my hard work.
I know that to write you have to have stories you want to tell. You have to keep your mind alive, and you have to work hard.
The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.
We have to fight twice as hard, three times as hard - not only as conservatives, but frankly, as women - to have our voices heard.

The Anger Management Tour was another beautiful thing. I loved that tour.
I don't think anybody should ever touch anybody in anger, ever.
I would so rock at running amuck.
Even English-teacher bookworms need friends and bars.
There are times when what's happening in rock is the best music in the world, and there are times when there is nothing worthwhile at all.
Back then, everyone was Lana and Rock. No one had ethnic names.
When rock & roll is done with that fervor, it's close to gospel.
My penalty for rocking the boat was being traded.
