Top Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Emily Mortimer

The odd thing is if you asked me to do the accent now I would find it very difficult unless I was also playing that part, because I associate it so much with entering into the role and stepping into someone else's shoes. — Emily Mortimer

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Michael Blanding

In his 1903 book 'Psychology of Advertising', [Walter Dill Scott] argued that 'the effect of modern advertising is not so much to convince as to suggest.' So-called reason-why advertising was a blunt instrument compared with 'atmosphere advertising', which would associate a product with the viewer's subconscious desired: to be well liked, to be healthy, to possess, to succeed. — Michael Blanding

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Gunther Schuller

I wanted to be a painter and an artist. And it's interesting that in some of my later musical works, I refer so often and associate myself with works of art. — Gunther Schuller

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By David Starkey

My biggest poetic influences are probably 20th-century British and Irish poets. So I suppose I'm always listening for the music I associate with that poetry, the telling images, the brevity. I want to hear it in my own work as well as in the poetry I read. However, I think I'm generally more forgiving of other poets than myself. — David Starkey

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Lemony Snicket

When the bald associate had mentioned a sleeping beauty, he was referring to a fairy tale that you have probably heard one thousand times. Like all fairy tales, the story of Sleeping Beauty begins with 'Once upon a time,' and continues with a foolish young princess who makes a witch very angry, and then takes a nap until her boyfriend wakes her up with a kiss and insists on getting married, at which point the story ends with the phrase 'happily ever after.' The story is usually illustrated with fancy drawings of the napping princess, who always looks very glamorous and elegant, with her hair neatly combed and a long silk gown keeping her comfortable as she snores away for years and years. — Lemony Snicket

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Jules Verne

External objects produce decided effects upon the brain. A man shut up between four walls soon loses the power to associate words and ideas together. How many prisoners in solitary confinement become idiots, if not mad, for want of exercise for the thinking faculty! — Jules Verne

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Katha Pollitt

Right now religion has the romantic aura of the forbidden - Christ is cool. We need to bring it into the schools, which kids already hate, and associate it firmly with boredom, regulation, condescension, makework and de facto segregation ... Prayer in the schools will rid us of the bland no-offense ecumenism that is so infuriating to us anticlericals: Oh, so now you say Jews didn't kill Christ - a little on the late side, isn't it? — Katha Pollitt

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Alexandra Robbins

Unshackled by strict yet arbitrary, misguided norms, outcasts can be, look, act, and associate however they want. And in this ever conformist, cookie-cutter, magazine-celebrity-worshipping, creativity-stifling society, the innovation, courage, and differences of the cafeteria fringe are vital to America's culture and progress. Which is why we must celebrate them. — Alexandra Robbins

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By G. Willow Wilson

Festivals and fasts are unhinged, traveling backward at a rate of ten days per year, attached to no season. Even Laylat ul Qadr, the holiest night in Ramadan, drifts
its precise date is unknown. The iconclasm laid down by Muhammed was absolute: you must resist attachment not only to painted images, but to natural ones. Ramadan, Muharram, the Eids; you associate no religious event with the tang of snow in the air, or spring thaw, or the advent of summer. God permeates these things
as the saying goes, Allah is beautiful, and He loves beauty
but they are transient. Forced to concentrate on the eternal, you begin to see, or think you see, the bones and sinews of the world beneath its seasonal flesh. The sun and moon become formidable clockwork. They are transient also, but hint at the dark planes that stretch beyond the earth in every direction, full of stars and dust, toward a retreating, incomprehensible edge — G. Willow Wilson

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Donald Trump

Be careful with whom you associate. Loser's rub off! — Donald Trump

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By D. B. Weiss

I was in Kenya when I read 'Catch-22,' and I associate this book that has nothing to do with Kenya - whenever I think of 'Catch-22,' I think of Nairobi. — D. B. Weiss

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Seneca.

Withdraw into yourself, as far as you can. Associate with those who will make a better man of you. Welcome those whom you yourself can improve. The process is mutual; for men learn while they teach. — Seneca.

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Emma Watson

People associate feminism with hate - with man hate - and that's really negative. I don't think that's what feminism is about at all - it's really positive. I think that's why women became reluctant to use the word. — Emma Watson

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Warren Buffett

Always associate yourself with people who are better than you. — Warren Buffett

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By B.C. Forbes

A certain ultra-dignified gentleman of unusual prominence carried himself so stiffly that nobody felt free to call him by his first name. He quarreled with a friend of earlier days and from then on the two never spoke. The day the friend died an associate found the ultra-dignified gentleman staring through the window. When he came out of his reverie, he soliloquized with a sigh, ""He was the last to call me John."" Is any man really entitled to regard himself a success who has failed to inspire at least a goodly number of fellow mortals to greet him by his first name? — B.C. Forbes

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Gucci Mane

I learned that everybody is not your friend. You have to watch who you associate with and surround yourself with positive things and people who want to do something positive. — Gucci Mane

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Howard Spring

Do what we will, we are alone. The sooner we learn that, the better; and the more we are fit to be alone with ourselves, the more we are respectful to the individuality of others, and therefore the more we are fit to associate with our kind. This was a paradox she would have to learn for ourselves. — Howard Spring

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Richard Wiseman

When you gossip about another person, listeners unconsciously associate you with the characteristics you are describing, ultimately leading to those characteristics' being "transferred" to you. So, say positive and pleasant things about friends and colleagues, and you are seen as a nice person. In contrast, constantly complain about their failings, and people will unconsciously apply the negative traits and incompetence to you. — Richard Wiseman

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Benedict Of Nursia

And let them first pray together, that so they may associate in peace. — Benedict Of Nursia

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Hilaire Belloc

Take the particular trick of false names. It seems to us particularly odious. We think when we show our contempt for those who use this subterfuge that we are giving them no more than they deserve. It is a meanness which we associate with criminals and vagabonds; a piece of crawling and sneaking ... Men whose race is universally known, will unblushingly adopt a false name as a mask, and after a year or two pretend to treat it as an insult if their original and true name be used in its place. — Hilaire Belloc

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Richard Dooling

As a society, we pick words that are offensive based on what we're most afraid of. We associate sounds with some dangerous idea, and right now the most dangerous thing to us are the differences between us. — Richard Dooling

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Marilyn Manson

People tend to associate anyone who looks and behaves differently with illegal or immoral activity. — Marilyn Manson

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Herbert Harris

You should primarily associate only with those persons who possess the traits and characteristics that complement the positive aspects of your self-image. Such positive associations will greatly enhance your own development, and help confirm and establish the vision, emotions, and feelings you have about yourself. — Herbert Harris

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Shirley Jackson

My ambitions for you are slowly being realised, and, even though you are unhappy, console yourself with the thought that it was part of my plan for you to be unhappy for a while. The fact that you associate intimately with girls who do not care for the things you do should strengthen your own artistic integrity and fortify you against the world; remember, Natalie, your enemies will always come from the same place your friends do. — Shirley Jackson

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Barack Obama

Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation. — Barack Obama

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Dwight D. Eisenhower

Always try to associate yourself closely with and learn as much as you can from those who know more than you, who do better than you, who see more clearly than you. Apart from the rewards of friendship, the association might pay off at some unforeseen time - that is only an accidental byproduct. The important thing is that the learning will make you a better person. — Dwight D. Eisenhower

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By S.R. Crawford

You're not fine. You're not. And that's OK. The first thing I want you to do is to finally tell yourself that it's OK not to be OK. To accept that you're feeling badly and that something isn't right. Too many of us are in denial because we think that to admit there's something wrong means we're weak or broken or odd. I don't know if it's society, or just who we associate with, but we need to change our way of thinking. We are not weak. We are not broken. We are not odd. — S.R. Crawford

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Seneca The Younger

Retire into yourself as much as possible. Associate with people who are likely to improve you. Welcome those whom you are capable of improving. The process is a mutual one. People learn as they teach. — Seneca The Younger

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Amaka Imani Nkosazana

You make the choice concerning who you associate with on a daily basis. Whenever there are people around you who continually gossip or nag, you have the option to entertain that nonsense or leave it alone. The choice is yours. Most of the time people you hang around are a reflection of yourself. We often times attract people with like-minded personalities. So, if you enjoy that type of company it says much about your character. — Amaka Imani Nkosazana

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Carolyn Coats

Character and ideals are catching. When you associate with men who aspire to the highest and best, you expose yourself to the qualities that make men great. — Carolyn Coats

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Clarice Lispector

Something broke in me and left me with a nerve split in two. In the beginning the extremities linked to the cut hurt me so badly that I paled in pain and perplexity. However the split places gradually scarred over. Until coldly, I no longer hurt. I changed, without planning to. I used to look at you from my inside outward and from the inside of you, which because of love, I could guess. After the scarring I started to look at you from the outside in. And also to see myself from the outside in: I had transformed myself into a heap of facts and actions whose only root was in the domain of logic. At first I couldn't associate me with myself. Where am I? I wondered. And the one who answered was a stranger who told me coldly and categorically: you are yourself. — Clarice Lispector

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Brooks Robinson

Associate with those who help you believe in yourself. — Brooks Robinson

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Lev Grossman

Forget everything you ordinarily associate with religious study. Strip away all the reverence and the awe and the art and the philosophy of it. Treat the subject coldly. Imagine yourself to be a theologist, but a special kind of theologist, one who studies gods the way an entomologist studies insects. Take as your dataset the entirety of world mythology and treat it as a collection of field observations and statistics pertaining to a hypothetical species: the god. Proceed from there. — Lev Grossman

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Roy Bennett

Associate yourself with people who think positively. You cannot surround yourself with negative people and expect positive outcomes. — Roy Bennett

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Seneca.

Associate with those who will make a better man of you. Welcome those whom yourself can improve. Men learn while they teach. — Seneca.

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Robert Cheeke

The people who put limits on your abilities, goals, or dreams, may not be the people you want to associate yourself with. — Robert Cheeke

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Charles Caleb Colton

When we live habitually with the wicked, we become necessarily either their victim or their disciple; when we associate, on the contrary, with virtuous men, we form ourselves in imitation of their virtues, or, at least, lose every day something of our faults. — Charles Caleb Colton

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Dorothy Dunnett

I made one mistake. Who doesn't? But I despised men who accepted their fate. I shaped mine twenty times and had it broken twenty times in my hands. Of course it left me deformed and unserviceable, defective and dangerous to associate with. ... But what in God's name has happened to charity? ... Self-interest guides me like the next man but not invariably; not all the time. I use compassion more than you do; I have loyalties and I keep by them; I serve honesty in a crooked way, but as best I can; and I don't plague my debtors or even make them aware of their debt. ... Why is it so impossible to trust me? — Dorothy Dunnett

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Italo Calvino

I do not understand how you can associate abortion with an idea of hedonism or the good life. — Italo Calvino

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Dwight D. Eisenhower

Always try to associate yourself with and learn as much as you can from those who know more than you do, who do better than you, who see more clearly than you. — Dwight D. Eisenhower

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Charles Caleb Colton

In all societies, it is advisable to associate if possible with the highest; not that the highest are always the best, but because, if disgusted there, we can descend at any time; but if we begin with the lowest, to ascend is impossible. — Charles Caleb Colton

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Daria Werbowy

I suppose it's the feminist in me, but I didn't always associate modelling with an intelligent career. I used to put myself down for doing it. — Daria Werbowy

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Aimee Bender

In terms of foods for me, I think I have more of the usual associations - foods from childhood that I associate with care and love, from relatives or special restaurants like the kind elderly man who dusted seasoning salt on French fries at the corner burger joint. — Aimee Bender

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Newt Gingrich

All unemployment compensation should be tied to a job training requirement. Now the fact is, 99 weeks is an associate degree. — Newt Gingrich

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Christine Jennings

These weren't college kids on acid. They were preachers, and bankers, and farmers, and the salt of American society subscribing to ideas that now seem so wild to us. These people had the most radical visions of what the future could be. And this was happening in an era we don't typically associate with sexual experimentation, or communism, or things like that. — Christine Jennings

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Frederick Lenz

If you wish to cultivate humility, then you should associate with those who are humble. — Frederick Lenz

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Qur'an

Say, "I am only a man like you, to whom has been revealed that your god is one God. So whoever would hope for the meeting with his Lord - let him do righteous work and not associate in the worship of his Lord anyone. — Qur'an

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Julie Bishop

We know that so many of the conditions and diseases that we associate with ageing can often be prevented or in fact their onset delayed if we just took preventative steps earlier in our lives. — Julie Bishop

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Roy Basler

{When Abraham Lincoln was 26 years old in 1835, he wrote a defense of Thomas Paine's deism; a political associate, Samuel Hill, burned it to save Lincoln's political career. Historian Roy Basler, the editor of Lincoln's papers, said Paine had a strong influence on Lincoln's style:}

No other writer of the eighteenth century, with the exception of Jefferson, parallels more closely the temper or gist of Lincoln's later thought. In style, Paine above all others affords the variety of eloquence which, chastened and adapted to Lincoln's own mood, is revealed in Lincoln's formal writings. — Roy Basler

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Deepika Padukone

The best feeling is when you are remembered for the character you play on the screen and people associate you with that character. There is no better feeling than that feeling. — Deepika Padukone

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Matthew Stewart

Deism" in its own day referred not to a superficial theological doctrine but to a comprehensive intellectual tradition that ranged freely across the terrain we now associate with ethics, political theory, metaphysics, the philosophy of mind, and epistemology. It was an astonishingly coherent and systematic body of thought, closer to a way of being than any particular dogma, and it retained its essential elements over a span of centuries, not decades. In origin and substance, deism was neither British nor Christian, as the conventional view supposes, but largely ancient, pagan, and continental, and it spread in America far beyond the educated elite. — Matthew Stewart

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Michael Bergdahl

Sam Walton instilled ownership of the products in the stores into the collective consciousness of every associate regardless of what job they did for the company. — Michael Bergdahl

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Henry David Thoreau

We do not associate the idea of antiquity with the ocean, nor wonder how it looked a thousand years ago, as we do of the land, for it was equally wild and unfathomable always. — Henry David Thoreau

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Mira Nair

Humility is not a trait I often associate with America. — Mira Nair

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By James Hetfield

I associate times with certain music. It still is that for me. It's telling the story of our lives. — James Hetfield

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Timothy Leary

When you teach someone how to perform creatively (ie, associate dead symbols in new combinations), you expand his potential for experiencing more widely and richly. — Timothy Leary

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Abigail George

Wanderlust. These are words that I associate with him now. Not genius. Not gifted. Extraordinary in any way. — Abigail George

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By John Gofman

In truth, Edward Teller ran the Livermore Lab, but for public purposes he liked it better to be known as only an associate director — John Gofman

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Mitchell Baker

Our sense of "open" is that the authority to make decisions about that gets distributed based on merit and understanding and participation and leadership, not solely on employment or a title or a business plan. Technical colleagues will define "open" as "open standards," "interoperable" - you can find it, search it, cut and paste it, view source, mix and match - all those things that we associate with text on the Web, that you can continue to do that with audio and video and whatever's next. — Mitchell Baker

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Andrea M. Ghez

As an astronomer, I get to ignore the details of the things that we don't understand. There's a lot of work that we can do on scales that we do understand, and there is actually a finite size that I can associate with a super massive black hole. — Andrea M. Ghez

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Theodore Roosevelt

Fellow-feeling ... is the most important factor in producing a healthy political and social life. Neither our national nor our local civic life can be what it should be unless it is marked by the fellow-feeling, the mutual kindness, the mutual respect, the sense of common duties and common interests, which arise when men take the trouble to understand one another, and to associate together for a common object. A very large share of the rancor of political and social strife arises either from sheer misunderstanding by one section, or by one class, of another, or else from the fact that the two sections, or two classes, are so cut off from each other that neither appreciates the other's passions, prejudices, and, indeed, point of view, while they are both entirely ignorant of their community of feeling as regards the essentials of manhood and humanity. — Theodore Roosevelt

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Rolf Potts

The more we associate experience with cash value, the more we think that money is what we need to live. And the more we associate money with life, the more we convince ourselves that we're too poor to buy our freedom. — Rolf Potts

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Walter E. Williams

The bottom line is that the true test of one's commitment to freedom of association doesn't come when he allows people to associate in ways he approves. The true test of that commitment comes when he allows people to be free to voluntarily associate in ways he deems despicable. Forced association is not freedom of association. — Walter E. Williams

Who You Associate Yourself With Quotes By Mary Catherwood

People incline to doubt the superiority of a person who will associate with them. — Mary Catherwood
