People, when they go on stage, tend to be animated and try to force things out instead of relaxing and bringing it in.
Too many of Disney animators, and a lot try to emulate Disney, are trying to hit what they call quality levels. They're boring mannerisms.
Try as you will, you cannot annihilate that eternal relic of the human heart, love.
The goal of an ISP or a broadband provider is to get as many subscribers as possible. It's not to try to annihilate consumer interests.
I would never be one to critique the announcers when I watched games. I try to watch the play and listen to the broadcasters and what they are pointing out. I was never one to say this one was good or bad.
I was given a chance to try announcing, and it was a job that, in the end, I did not care for very much.
We do a lot of things that kind of annoy people and our fan base. We try not to get overloaded on it. For us, that means we don't do social media stuff - we have an Avenged Sevenfold social media, but none of the band members have Facebooks or any sort of Twitter.
The pretentiousness of literature really annoys me; the way a writer is held as this sort of magical person to be revered on the stage. Everything I do on tour is to try and destroy that pretense.
Don't try to teach a pig to sing. It doesn't work, and it annoys the pig.
I consider myself something of a self-taught anthropologist. I try not to talk about something unless it's something I love. But if it's something that really annoys me, I fixate on it, learn something about it and then, when I'm onstage, it comes out.
If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business.
I used to ask my mom to try and shave my head on the sides to give me a receding hairline because Adam Ant had one.
I would not, under any circumstances, try to impose my personal faith and belief on the rest of the country. I don't think that's right. I don't think that's appropriate.
I was excited at something new, always liked something new, but give credit to everybody who helped. I didn't do anything alone but try to go to the root of the question and succeeded there.
Always try to use the language so as to make quite clear what you mean and make sure your sentence couldn't mean anything else.
Anytime we step out boldly to make changes, we take a chance that we might fail. But the only way to get better is to try.
There's a common criticism of evolutionary psychology that it's fatalistic and it dooms us to eternal strife, 'Why even try to work toward peace if we're just bloody killer apes and violence is in our genes?'
I try not to apologize, especially publicly. That's a slippery slope, because I'm a comedian. If you take anything I'm saying too seriously, then you shouldn't be paying attention in the first place. If you find me offensive, don't follow me.
You don't want to have to come into work on Monday already apologizing. I try to save my apologies for what I've done later in the week.
For years, I wrote songs to try to get cuts or try to have hits or try to appease a label or to be famous. I was learning a lot of valuable tools about structure and how to articulate. I was getting really good at that.
