Lucky Quotes - page 4

There's a need to perfect things in a writers' room, and that can take a lot of fun out of a show sometimes. It's a struggle. It depends on your personality. Some people love working with a writing staff. I had a great writing staff on Lucky Louie, but it sometimes felt like Congress or something. (Louis C.K.)
At lucky moments this emanation could overwhelm the spectator in such a way, that because of all sorts of associations in his thinking, he could finally be taken to those areas which also had moved me so deeply and made me think I should draw the attention of others to it. View quote
Antoni Tàpies
Yes, I am very lucky, but I have a little theory about this. I have noticed through experience and observation that providence, nature, God, or what I would call the power of creation seems to favor human beings who accept and love life unconditionally, and I am certainly one who does with all my heart. View quote
Arthur Rubinstein

David Attenborough
I tell him [husband Emilio] you are lucky I am not a jealous woman, because look at the women he's worked with: Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Thalia, Madonna. These very sexy women. I trust him. View quote
Gloria Estefan
The point came when people were doing things I didn't feel competent to do myself. I'm not being modest, I honestly get lost. I was lucky in spotting what I did when I did, but there comes a point where you realise what you're doing is not going to be much good. View quote
Peter Higgs
Acting has given me a way to channel my angst. I feel like an overweight, pimply faced kid a lot of the time - and finding a way to access that insecurity, and put it toward something creative is incredibly rewarding. I feel very lucky. View quote
Ryan Reynolds
If you want to do good research, it's important not to know too much. This almost sounds contradictory but really if you know too much and you get an idea, you will sort of talk yourself out of trying it because you figure it won't work. But if you know just the right amount and you get enthusiastic about your project, you go ahead, you do it and if you're lucky things'll work out. View quote
Ivar Giaever
I am very lucky, I have a very tight group of friends and a very supportive family, and to this date no-one has ever sold a story on me. View quote
Sienna Miller
I was born under a lucky star, and I have nothing whatsoever to regret. I wouldn't change a thing about my life. View quote
Richard Branson
I believe that every English poet should read the English classics, master the rules of grammar before he attempts to bend or break them, travel abroad, experience the horror of sordid passion and - if he is lucky enough - know the love of an honest woman. (Robert Graves)
How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard. View quote
A. A. Milne
There's a pretty woman for ever lucky man in the world: every man in the world is a lucky man if he only knew it, so why waste time? View quote
William Saroyan
One day in the afternoon of the world, glum death will come and sit in you, and when you get up to walk, you will be as glum as death, but if you're lucky, this will only make the fun better and the love greater. View quote
William Saroyan
I often stop when I'm doing something, in the middle of rehearsals or some other job, and I try to take a minute to think "Okay, this might be as good as it gets, so drink it in, appreciate it now". So far, I've been lucky because another job has always come along to equal the last. View quote
David Tennant
I didn't like the music business and I didn't like me. There's an element of falseness about the whole thing. Even things like doing an interview. It's not as though we just met in the pub and are having a chat - it's part of a process. If you do it all day, every day for years, you end up thinking: 'Who the hell am I?' I was lucky enough to make some money, enough to let me kick back. It was a great experience and it was nice to have a couple of No.1s but the best thing about it was that the money I made allowed me to have freedom and choice in my life. View quote
Rick Astley
Most wars are fought for greed, but we are luckier here-we fight for our lives and the lives of the people we love. View quote
David Gemmell
I don't always feel lucky, but I'm smart enough to try. View quote
Ani DiFranco
There will always be people who say it does not exist because they cannot have it. But I tell you it is true and that you have it and that you are lucky even if you die tomorrow. View quote
Ernest Hemingway
Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready. View quote
Ernest Hemingway
And we were lucky because we have a magic mirror in this movie. Not every movie has a magic mirror. (Terry Gilliam)
But there was one other thing that the grown-ups also knew, and it was this: that however small the chance might be of striking lucky, the chance is there. The chance had to be there. View quote
Roald Dahl
I never considered myself a lucky person. I'm the most extraordinary pessimist. I truly am. View quote
Christopher Nolan
I realize now how lucky I was, in the total absence of role models, to have only men to rebel against. Today's women students are meeting their oppressors in dangerously seductive new form, as successful congenial female professors who view themselves as victims of a rigid foreign ideology. View quote
Camille Paglia
[An article about Cho] started out, "Funny, sexy, zaftig Margaret Cho..." What is "zaftig?" Isn't that German for "big fat pig?" I guess I was lucky- "zaftig" is kind of a nice word. It could have been, "Funny, sexy, OBESE Margaret Cho." View quote
Margaret Cho
