Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of situations do these "Back" quotes describe?
This collection uses the word back in different ways - from politics to entertainment to everyday routines. One quote describes wanting to give the president leverage to go to the United Nations, and then come back to the Congress for the authority to go to force. Another recalls getting back from shooting 'Deception' while under an NBC contract, admitting, "I can't really do anything." For more quotes with a similar sense of movement and decision-making, see Go quotes.
Is there a quote about international relations or the global economy?
Yes. One quote reflects on how Russia and China, once communist-like adversaries who didn't participate, are now trading monetary instruments and taking part in the world alongside everyone else. It's a good example of back being used to mark a shift over time.
Does this page include anything about beauty or skincare routines?
It does. One quote describes a hypersensitive skin routine, explaining the need to cleanse it with oils and then back it up with even more oil, adding, "I really am just putting on oil all the time." It's a small, personal example next to the more political and career-focused quotes elsewhere on this page. If you enjoy quotes about everyday preferences, browse Like quotes.
Is there a quote related to acting or a TV/film contract?
Yes - one quote mentions getting back from shooting 'Deception' while still under contract with NBC, which limited what the speaker could do next. It's a glimpse into how a work contract can shape someone's options after a project wraps. For more reflective, exploratory quotes, check out Look quotes.
Do all the quotes on this page share one single meaning of "back"?
Not exactly - that's part of what makes this page interesting. Back shows up here as returning to Congress after a UN resolution process, coming back from a film shoot, marking a shift in global participation, and even as part of a skincare routine. For more quotes that return to familiar, everyday phrasing, see Always quotes.
