I really thought I was pretty good before I saw Hendrix, and then I thought: Yeah, not so good. Brian May
As a kid I quite fancied the romantic, Bohemian idea of being an artist. I expect I thought I could escape from the difficulties of maths and spelling. Maybe I thought I would avoid the judgement of the establishment. Peter Wright
The question I asked Georges has now become a general one - You, who thought you were superfluous, who thought there was no place for you in society, not only are you not superfluous, you are needed and so those who were beggars become givers. Abbe Pierre
I thought Microsoft did a lot of things that were good and right building parts of the browser into the operating system. Then I thought it out and came up with reasons why it was a monopoly. Steve Wozniak
Virginia Woolf quote: "I thought how unpleasant it is to be locked out; and I thought..."
