A lost election can have the jolt of a drop through the gallows door, leading to a dark night of the soul in which the future presses down like a cloud that will never lift.

Quotes by James Wolcott

I never accepted why there should be some invisible, wavy cutoff line separating Great Fiction from phosphorescent beauties and dollhouse miniatures, novels that contain a whole world in a snow globe.

Quotes by James Wolcott

Since I'm a fan of collections and anthologies, believe that the best writing often shines in shards and galloping stretches, I never find myself lobbying for a writer I enjoy reading regularly to hole up in Heidegger's hut for four or five years to bring forth a mountain.

Quotes by James Wolcott

The days when the words 'Hollywood actor' framed Ronald Reagan like bunny fingers as an ID tag and an implied insult seem far-off and quaint: nearly everybody in politics - candidate, consultant, pundit, and Tea Party crowd extra alike - is an actor now, a shameless ham in a hoked-up reality series that never stops.

Quotes by James Wolcott

China never borrowed less than $3 billion a year during my tenure. They were the most significant client. They used the Bank not just for money but for the know-how.

Quotes by James Wolfensohn

The Bank had never used the word 'corruption' at all until I got there, and the reason for that was, as the general counsel pointed out to me, that quite a number of our shareholders represented were not immune from corruption in their governments.

Quotes by James Wolfensohn

I learned women never want to hear they have big feet. That's no fun.

Quotes by James Wolk

Rule, Britannia, rule the waves; Britons never will be slaves.

Quotes by James Thomson

Sophistication might be described as the ability to cope gracefully with a situation involving the presence of a formidable menace to one's poise and prestige (such as the butler, or the man under the bed - but never the husband).

Quotes by James Thurber

You will never convince anyone to do anything unless you believe it should be done.

Quotes by James Toback

I've never really had a problem with the imagination level of an audience. They're always smarter and savvier than any studio exec will give them credit for.

Quotes by James Van Der Beek

I never wear white or black socks.

Quotes by James Van Der Beek

I was never a 'sit down with a notepad and write lyrics' kind of person.

Quotes by James Vincent McMorrow

When I first saw Drake, I thought I was never going to like him based on the person that I saw on T.V. He's just so full on, and he's got the ladies' man thing, which isn't necessarily something that would resonate with me.

Quotes by James Vincent McMorrow

Well, if this is poetry, I'm certainly never going to write any myself.

Quotes by James Schuyler

You know when you're writing, and it's just you and the computer screen, and you never think that anyone is ever going to read it... you're able to say private things when you're writing.

Quotes by James St. James

Never treat your audience as customers, always as partners.

Quotes by James Stewart

I'd like to do Harvey again. I did it two years ago with Helen Hayes in New York. It was a joy. I was so glad to do it again because I never thought I did it right the first time.

Quotes by James Stewart

Punk rock has never really had much patience with musical virtuosity. Actually, it'd be more accurate to say that for most of its history, punk has been actively hostile to virtuosity.

Quotes by James Surowiecki

By the time of the '90s boom, CEOs had become superheroes, accorded celebrity treatment and followed with a kind of slavish scrutiny that Alfred P. Sloan could never have imagined.

Quotes by James Surowiecki

They just think I'm a white dude. Every once in a while someone thinks I'm Jewish. I get a lot of stuff, but never Latino.

Quotes by James Roday

Have I ever pretended to be something? I think back in college I think I might have told a girl that I was a professional tennis player once. And then, of course, she had never heard of me so I had to dig deeper. 'I'm just sort of on the playing satellites. You know, I'm kind of working my way up. I'm not ranked in the top 100 or anything.'

Quotes by James Roday

Anytime you're lucky enough to be on something that lasts longer than half a season, you never quite know what kind of life the show is gonna take on.

Quotes by James Roday

I don't know if we would have stuff like 'Deadwood' and 'Boardwalk Empire' if 'Twin Peaks' had never happened.

Quotes by James Roday

I never had a thing for movie stars. I was into the guys who could transform. Sean Penn. Daniel Day-Lewis. The ones who privileged the craft.

Quotes by James Roday

Fiction writing was in my blood from a very young age, but I never considered writing as a real career. I thought you had to have some literary pedigree to be a successful author, the son of Hemingway or Fitzgerald.

Quotes by James Rollins

The automobile crash was... devastating in ways that I still cannot really bear to think about... It took me many years to recover. In some ways, I never have.

Quotes by James Rosenquist

Let us be of good cheer, however, remembering that the misfortunes hardest to bear are those which never come.

Quotes by James Russell Lowell

The foolish and the dead alone never change their opinions.

Quotes by James Russell Lowell

It is the privilege of genius that life never grows common place, as it does for the rest of us.

Quotes by James Russell Lowell

An appeal to the reason of the people has never been known to fail in the long run.

Quotes by James Russell Lowell

Folks never understand the folks they hate.

Quotes by James Russell Lowell

Particular individuals who might never consider dropping out if they were in a different high school might decide to drop out if they attended a school where many boys and girls did so.

Quotes by James S. Coleman

Like books you will never have the chance to read, there are languages you do not know, and you're not going to get a chance to learn, so you'll never really know what was written, only the approximation.

Quotes by James Salter

I will never apologize for standing up for my fellow Teamsters and all American workers.

Quotes by James P. Hoffa

I never read detective novels. I started out in graduate school writing a more serious book. Right around that time I read 'The Day of the Jackal' and 'The Exorcist'. I hadn't read a lot of commercial fiction, and I liked them.

Quotes by James Patterson

Ultimately, a great thriller is a roller coaster ride. I like to think that's a promise I have never failed to keep, and one that I'd say has served my books well.

Quotes by James Patterson

I'm big on having a blistering pace. That's one of the hallmarks of what I do, and that's not easy. I never blow up cars and things like that, so it's something else that keeps the suspense flowing. I try not to write a chapter that isn't going to turn on the movie projector in your head.

Quotes by James Patterson

One forgives the critic - perhaps - but never the good-natured friend.

Quotes by James Payn

It has often struck me that the relation of two important members of the social body to one another has never been sufficiently considered, or treated of, so far as I know, either by the philosopher or the poet.

Quotes by James Payn

My pub was full of get-rich-quick schemes that never worked - scams, pyramid schemes. People trying to find a way to get themselves out of a rut.

Quotes by James Purefoy

They would have been very let down if they had to leave the theater and he had missed. He would feel badly. Everyone would feel badly. But he never let them down.

Quotes by James Randi

None of the editors I've worked with have ever asked me to pull my punches. They've never asked me to give them anything other than my own interpretation of events.

Quotes by James Nachtwey

I never forget that I'm extremely fortunate.

Quotes by James Nesbitt

Industry, economy, honesty, and kindness form a quartet of virtues that will never be improved upon.

Quotes by James Oliver

I pray God I may never be brought to the melancholy trial; but, if ever I should, it will then be known how far I can reduce to practice principles which I know to be founded in truth.

Quotes by James Otis

The key to making acquisitions is being ready because you really never know when the right big one is going to come along.

Quotes by James McNerney

I've never been one to think it was cheating to sample this or to loop the drum part there - I've always done that. Even using four-track cassette recorders, I was always doing whatever I could to make it as good as I could.

Quotes by James Mercer

Until having kids, I had never really thought about mortality so much.

Quotes by James Mercer

Nothing has been more detrimental to me than to be considered a symbol, because I never stood for any of that... The civil rights movement thought they would do me harm over the years by disassociating themselves from me. Well, nothing in the world was more to my advantage. I was never one of them... I had my own divine mission.

Quotes by James Meredith

I never have been a big coffee drinker.

Quotes by James Michael Tyler

I never really got that chance at Manchester City and developed into a utility player. Playing in all the positions has made me a better player because it's not easy to do that. Understanding the game has made me a more rounded player as well.

Quotes by James Milner

I would never say never. You never know what is going to happen.

Quotes by James Milner

In the wars of the European powers in matters relating to themselves we have never taken any part, not does it comport with our policy so to do. It is only when our rights are invaded or seriously menaced that we resent injuries or make preparation for our defence.

Quotes by James Monroe

Never did a government commence under auspices so favorable, nor ever was success so complete.

Quotes by James Monroe

The right of self defense never ceases. It is among the most sacred, and alike necessary to nations and to individuals, and whether the attack be made by Spain herself or by those who abuse her power, its obligation is not the less strong.

Quotes by James Monroe

I never did albums fully at DFA; I always would go someplace else so I wasn't making a record in my office, basically.

Quotes by James Murphy

I was into punk rock my whole life. I never listened to the Eagles. I never listened to things that were getting Grammys. So getting a Grammy nomination wasn't bad, it just wasn't meaningful.

Quotes by James Murphy

If there was a direct influence on a song, I never hid it.

Quotes by James Murphy

I got a phone message from Janet Jackson saying, 'Hi, I love 'Losing My Edge', can you do me something funky and dirty like that?' I can't really do off-the-peg stuff, so I never called back.

Quotes by James Murphy

I don't write off silly pop people at all, because you never know where they're coming from.

Quotes by James Murphy

I like clever lyrics, funny lyrics, dumb lyrics. I can never put my finger on what I like about them.

Quotes by James Murphy

Give your decisions, never your reasons; your decisions may be right, your reasons are sure to be wrong.

Quotes by James Mansfield

I have always been good at auditioning, but maybe because I had a good trick at the beginning. I would pretend that my agent gave me the wrong scene or lines. They would take pity on me and hand me the right scene. I would act like I had never seen this before - and then do pretty well considering I had already rehearsed it.

Quotes by James Marsden

I wanted to be a doctor at one point and I also wanted to be a pilot. I think if you grow up in a dodgy area, reality often beats down those ambitions as you get older. But with me that never really happened.

Quotes by James McAvoy

I always believed that I never wanted to be an actor. I only did it because I was allowed to do it and I had to do something.

Quotes by James McAvoy

I was originally going to be a lawyer, and the only thing I remember from the art of cross-examination is - you can see this one coming up Sixth Avenue - never ask a question the answer to which you do not know.

Quotes by James Lipton

What I didn't know that by sticking to craft we would blow open some doors that I never saw opened before.

Quotes by James Lipton

You never know with politicians what they are really saying. And I don't say that in a negative way-they have an appalling job.

Quotes by James Lovelock

We'd never have got a chance to go outside and look at the earth if it hadn't been for space exploration and NASA.

Quotes by James Lovelock

Never ascribe to an opponent motives meaner than your own.

Quotes by James M. Barrie

The most useless are those who never change through the years.

Quotes by James M. Barrie

His lordship may compel us to be equal upstairs, but there will never be equality in the servants hall.

Quotes by James M. Barrie

We never understand how little we need in this world until we know the loss of it.

Quotes by James M. Barrie

Six years ago, I completed the premier episode of Hawaii Five-O, and Jack Lord and I immediately realized that we had a good series, that this was a success such as we'd never hoped for!

Quotes by James MacArthur

It is right to be contented with what we have, never with what we are.

Quotes by James Mackintosh

Men are never so good or so bad as their opinions.

Quotes by James Mackintosh

All the moves I've made have come after I sat down with my family and my agent and thought what was the best move. I've never rushed into something, never gone anywhere where I wasn't sure 100%.

Quotes by James Maddison

Coming on as a sub, it's always different - you never know what the game is going to be like.

Quotes by James Maddison

I was an 18-year-old lad playing in a Scottish League Cup final at Hampden in front of 60,000 against Celtic. That's an experience I will never forget.

Quotes by James Maddison

I always loved writing, but never considered that I could do it professionally.

Quotes by James L. Brooks

When I wrote a gay character, I spent six months asking questions I've never asked a gay friend, the questions you don't ask just because you don't have the right to do it.

Quotes by James L. Brooks

I just don't really think of career. I've never been driven by career.

Quotes by James Lapine

I never stood in a public house bar and alcoholic drink never touched my lips.

Quotes by James Larkin

The only thing an artist has to remember is to never lose faith in his vision.

Quotes by James Lee Burke

Never read bad stuff if you're an artist; it will impair your own game.

Quotes by James Lee Burke

When you find the right people, you never let go. The people who count are the ones who are your friends in lean times. You have all the friends you want when things are going well.

Quotes by James Lee Burke

There is a lot of work just in terms of traveling and logistics and people and gear and all that kind of stuff. But I never really have problems playing music. That never seems like work.

Quotes by James Iha

It's hard enough to make a good song and a good recording of that song. But to try to tailor it to some outside force is just like - It's never been a factor in what I've done or what the band's done.

Quotes by James Iha

I felt the power of God as I'd never felt it before.

Quotes by James Irwin

Remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped.

Quotes by James J. Corbett

There's talent on the streets, kids with ideas who have stories to tell and never get a chance.

Quotes by James Jannard

Ever since September 11, I've been quite conservative in what we've ordered. We've never really been supply-demand anyway.

Quotes by James Jebbia

I'd always loved what went on in skateboarding. I'd never skated myself, but I loved the graphics - I really liked the rebelliousness of it.

Quotes by James Jebbia

As a small brand, we do it all. We don't need an investor. We would never go anywhere or do anything where we feel it would compromise what we do.

Quotes by James Jebbia

I've never considered Supreme to be a fashion company, or myself a designer.

Quotes by James Jebbia

He was scarcely then a year old, and knew so little of herding that he had never turned a sheep in his life; but as soon as he discovered it was his duty to do so I can never forget with what anxiety and eagerness he learned his different evolutions.

Quotes by James Hogg

I went to Illinois. Most people think I went to Princeton or something. But I was never a diligent student.

Quotes by James Holzhauer

The best bet I made that won was on the Tampa Bay Rays - who had never had a winning season in franchise history - to advance to the 2008 World Series.

Quotes by James Holzhauer

I kind of didn't look at anyone else's strategy for 'Jeopardy!' I thought, I'm going to build this from the ground up... If I had never seen a 'Jeopardy!' game played before, what would I have to do to play it to maximize my winnings, maximize my chances of winning?

Quotes by James Holzhauer

My tastes went all over the place, from Strauss to Mahler. I was never a big Wagner or Tchaikovsky fan. Benjamin Britten, Tallis, all the early English Medieval music, Prokofiev, some Russian composers, mostly the people that were the colorists, the French.
