I have a girlfriend who talks like that all the time. Who constantly complain about their periods and plumbing and stuff.
I can deal with it now, but 13 is a tough age to be recognized and famous. It's a tough age, period.
I don't believe in God, but I do believe in that chaotic reality, and also this: that none of us knows anything about anything. Period.
When something is not good, it's bad. Period
When silence is prolonged over a certain period of time, it takes on new meaning.
On thyroid therapy, more than 90 percent of those with painful menstruation were relieved, most of them completely. The results were fully as good in converting irregular periods to normal, regular ones. And in six of seven women with excessive flow, normal flow was established.
I should have written more. I should have written more during the period when I just liked so much doing the political work in the streets.
I have terrible periods of lack of confidence. I just don't believe I can do it and no evidence to the contrary will sway me from that view.
The forties, seventies, and the nineties, when money was scarce, were great periods, when the art world retracted but it was also reborn.
The History of the world is not the theatre of happiness. Periods of happiness are blank pages in it, for they are periods of harmony--periods when the antithesis is in abeyance.
When I'm interviewed on Leno, just be funny, period. That's all they want from me. I don't want to tell my life story.
Everything is cyclical. Historical eras go through times of intense cynicism, broken by periods of intense idealism.
I'm a storyteller. I love to tell stories about brands. I love to tell stories, period. I like painting pictures through the words, and that's what I do.
Sometimes countries have to go through periods of crises and then rediscover why it's important to be bipartisan and compromise and if you haven't had a deep crisis for a while, you feel like you have the luxury of going on your own way.
I did go through a period where I was on unemployment.
I like to juggle with one ball at a time. Then I put the ball down and do nothing for extended periods of time.
Every bit of you has been replaced many times over. . . The point is that you are like a cloud: something that persists over long periods, whilst simultaneously being in flux. Matter flows from place to place and momentarily comes together to be you. Whatever you are, therefore, you are not the stuff of which you are made.
I'm constantly discovering things. Like Bobby Bland. Right now I suppose I'm into the Eighties, which turned out to be a great musical period.
It's a very weird job to have as a musician, because you spend long periods of time alone and then you have to go work with people for a long period of time and present your music after you've been making it by yourself. It's a very drastic phase.
Adversity is not simply a tool. It is God's most effective tool for the advancement of our spiritual lives. The circumstances and events that we see as setbacks are oftentimes the very things that launch us into periods of intense spiritual growth. Once we begin to understand this, and accept it as a spiritual fact of life, adversity becomes easier to bear.
