Managers Quotes (page 23)

You theoretically have so much more time at home, but you fill it with the minutiae that you somehow managed to avoid when you were working. Emily Giffin
Ronald Firbank quote: "The world is disgracefully managed, one hardly knows to whom..."
The world is disgracefully managed, one hardly knows to whom to complain. Ronald Firbank
A poet is a person who manages, in a lifetime of standing out in thunderstorms, to be struck by lightening five or six times. Randall Jarrell
[...] and as I walked, I tried to see the funny side. It wasn't easy, and I'm still not sure that I managed it properly, but it's just something I like to do when things aren't going well. Because what does it mean, to say that things aren't going well? Compared to what? You can say: compared to how things were going a couple of hours ago, or a couple of years ago. But that's not the point. If two cars are speeding towards a brick wall with no brakes, and one car hits the wall moments before... Hugh Laurie
Birds are and always have been reincarnated old men with Tourette's syndrome having somehow managed to dupe the reproductive saga. They fuck each other and tend to their home repairs and children while never missing their true mission. To scream at the top of their lungs in horrified hellish rage every morning at daybreak to warn us all of the truth. They know the truth. Screaming bloody murder all over the world in our ears, but sadly we don't speak bird. Kurt Cobain
Universal military service may be compared to the efforts of a man to prop up his falling house who so surrounds it and fills it with props and buttresses and planks and scaffolding that he manages to keep the house standing only by making it impossible to live in it. Leo Tolstoy
One of the falsest of proverbs is that you must lie on the bed that you have made. The experience of life shows that people are constantly doing things which must lead to disaster, and yet by come chance manage to evade the result of their folly. W. Somerset Maugham
The republican principle demands that the deliberate sense ofthe community should govern the conduct of those to whom theyintrust the management of their affairs; but it does not requirean unqualified complaisance to every sudden breeze of passionor to every transient impulse which the people may receive fromthe arts of men, who flatter their prejudices to betray theirinterests. Alexander Hamilton
Ingmar Bergman quote: "One has to manage alone as best one can. (Karin Bergman)"
One has to manage alone as best one can. (Karin Bergman) Ingmar Bergman
Love great first lines and paragraphs. From The Yiddish Policemen's Union: Nine months Landsman's been flopping at the Hotel Zamenhof without any of his fellow residents managing to get themselves murdered. Now somebody has put a bullet in the brain of the occupant of 208, a yid who was calling himself Emanuel Lasker. Michael Chabon
And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about. Haruki Murakami
What I know is, you have a better chance in life-of surviving it-if you tolerate loss well; manage not to be a cynic through it all;... to connect the unequal things into a whole that preserves the good, even if the good is not simple to find. We try, as my sister said. We try. Richard Ford
Kids must spend half their lives throwing things at the ducks in Regent's Park. How come he managed to pick a duck that pathetic? Nick Hornby
People ask me all the time how I got hired onto the Office. Another common question is how do I manage to stay so down-to-earth in the face of such incredible success? ... A third frequently asked question is: "Girl, where you from? Trinidad? Guyana? Dominican Republic? You married? You got kids?" This is mostly asked by guys on the sidewalk selling I LOVE NEW YORK paraphernalia in New York City. Mindy Kaling
And so this added consideration - that she never get pregnant - contributed to the moderation of their coupling, which was almost always managed under conditions harsh enough to win the approval of New England's founding fathers John Irving
