Knowles Quotes By Malcolm Knowles

We will learn no matter what! Learning is as natural as rest or play. With or without books, inspiring trainers or classrooms, we will manage to learn.

If we know why we are learning and if the reason fits our needs as we perceive them, we will learn quickly and deeply. — Malcolm Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Solange Knowles

A lot of times I use live musicians, but I don't want it to have that live funky sound so I'll just take the best loop of a drum part and repeat it over and over and over again so that there's consistency and it feels a little bit more programmed. But I have a love/hate relationship with comping as well. — Solange Knowles

The herald, earth-accredited, of heaven,
which when men hear, they think upon heaven's king, and run the items over of the account to which he is sure to call them. — James Sheridan Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I think I've realized that business and being polite [don't] match. You can be fair, but me being polite was not me being fair to myself. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By John Knowles

Young people in my generation were sort of in lockstep, and it wasn't just the '40s, either. In the '30s and in the '50s it was the same. No one ever dropped out unless he got sick or got kicked out. — John Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

All of them, all except Phineas, constructed at infinite cost to themselves these Maginot Lines against this enemy they thought they saw across the frontier, this enemy who never attacked that way-if he ever attacked at all; if he was indeed the enemy. — John Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I've worked hard and I deserve everything I have. I never thought I'd have so much money. I just wanted to be financially stable and it embarrasses me and I don't feel comfortable talking or thinking about it. I don't know exactly how much I have but I don't buy much. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I am a woman and when I think, I must speak. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By John Knowles

The tree was not only stripped by the cold season, it seemed weary with age, enfeebled, dry. So more the things remain the same, the more they change after all. Nothing endures, not a tree, not love, not even a death by violence. Changed, I headed back though the mud. I was drenched; anybody could see it was time to come out of the rain. — John Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Malcolm Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I remember being in Japan when Destiny's Child put out 'Independent Women,' and women there were saying how proud they were to have their own jobs, their own independent thinking, their own goals. It made me feel so good, and I realized that one of my responsibilities was to inspire women in a deeper way. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

Women have to work much harder to make it in this world. It really pisses me off that women don't get the same opportunities as men do, or money for that matter. Because lets face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define our values and to define what's sexy and what's feminine and that's bullshit. At the end of the day, it's not about equal rights, it's about how we think. We have to reshape our own perception of how we view ourselves. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By John Knowles

Phineas created an atmosphere in which I continued now to live, a way of sizing up the world with erratic and entirely personal reservations, letting its rocklike facts sift through and be accepted only a little at a time, only as much as he could assimilate without a sense of chaos and loss. — John Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

You can't appreciate the good times without the bad ones. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I was so shy and when my sister was born I found it hard. I was really strange and kind of too quiet. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I get nervous when I don't get nervous. If I'm nervous I know I'm going to have a good show. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Joseph Knowles

Commercialism and the mad desire to make money have blotted out everything else, and as a result we are not living, but merely existing. — Joseph Knowles

Knowles Quotes By William Standish Knowles

At the time my dog had a fungus on her chest that wouldn't heal and resisted treatment. I made an ointment with our product and it cleared up in two days. She lived to 17 years. — William Standish Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Solange Knowles

Major labels act as banks in terms of how they produce and release your album. No major label is really good or bad; they just 100 per cent operate as a business, which makes sense ... no hard feelings. — Solange Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

When I'm on the red carpet, I'm prepared for [the attention.] But the worst thing is on planes, when you're asleep and you're woken up by a camera flashing. That's a little bit much. But what do you do? It's a part of [being famous]. Unfortunately. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Solange Knowles

You get educated by traveling. — Solange Knowles

Knowles Quotes By John Knowles

Looking back, I think we were all quite mature, surprisingly responsible. In earlier wars, boys of our age had just gone off to raise hell or enlist or both, but we stayed dutifully at our desks doing tomorrow's homework. — John Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Solange Knowles

I think every generation has that movement of hip-hop that you know you're playing it and you definitely have that moment of like, "Why am I saying this so enthusiastically? Why am I so stoked and psyched to say these lyrics?" — Solange Knowles

Knowles Quotes By John Knowles

Everyone contributed to this legend except Phineas. At the outset, with the attempt on Hitler's life, Finny had said, "If someone gave Leper a loaded gun and put it at Hitler's temple, he'd miss." There was a general shout of outrage, and then we recommended the building of Leper's triumphal arch around Brinker's keystone. Phineas took no part in it, and since little else was talked about in the Butt Room he soon stopped going there and stopped me from going as well - "How do you expect to be an athlete if you smoke like a forest fire?" He drew me increasingly away from the Butt Room crowd, away from Brinker and Chet and all other friends, into a world inhabited by just himself and me, where there was no war at all, just Phineas and me alone among all the people of the world, training for the Olympics of 1944. — John Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I don't really like to call myself a brand, and I don't like to think of myself as a brand. I'm a singer, a songwriter, a musician and a performer. And an actress, and all the other things that I do. When you add it all together, some might call it a brand, but that's not my focus. — Beyonce Knowles

Knowles Quotes By Beyonce Knowles

I am so looking forward to it. I made sure I had a strong foundation before I became pregnant and I think that's the most important thing. There were a lot of things that I wanted to do personally so that when the time came, I really knew who I was and could be the best mother. — Beyonce Knowles
