A Quote by Chris Moneymaker

My biggest fear was public speaking, and then having everyone know who I was, it was definitely weird at first. When I first won, it was definitely a culture shock, it was something I wasn't quite ready for.

I've always loved public speaking, and that's something I definitely will pursue after the Olympics.

Lauren Gibbs

To all of a sudden go from feeling almost invincible to being temporarily paralyzed to then having rods and screws in my neck and not really being able to move around to seeing my body change, I definitely, definitely, definitely did not feel myself at all.

Tyson Kidd

I'm definitely not ready to move into something else. I'm having so much fun.

Suzy Bogguss

This is my 51st year, but I'm not ready to quit. I definitely didn't think when I first started back in 1963 that I'd be doing this for 50 years, but how many guys can say they do it? When retirement comes, I'm not sure when it is, but I'll be ready for it.

Verne Lundquist

It is said that the fear of public speaking is a fear greater than death for most people. According to psychiatrists, the fear of public speaking is caused by the fear of ostracism, the fear of standing out, the fear of criticism, the fear of ridicule, the fear of being an outcast. THE FEAR OF BEING DIFFERENT PREVENTS MOST PEOPLE FROM SEEKING NEW WAYS TO SOLVE THEIR PROBLEMS.

Robert Kiyosaki

It's kind of my biggest fear: thinking I know somebody I'm going to be, and then I don't. It's probably only happened to me once or twice, but that was enough for me to definitely not do a role unless I 100% can be that person.

Riley Keough

The first time I came to New York - and the first time I saw the movie 'Paris Is Burning' - I learned about the homeless LGBT culture in New York City that goes back to the '80s. I found that very interesting, and it's definitely something that I care about.

Andreja Pejic

Death is the number two fear that people have and public speaking is the first!

Sidney Sheldon

I’m definitely excited to have a fresh start. Talking to the coach [Bob Hartley], talking to management, they want me to have success, and that definitely makes your life easier. It keeps your mind free to just go out there and play as good as you can, instead of worrying about giving up bad goals and having to prove yourself every night – not just to the public, but to the coaching staff and everybody else. That’s definitely a nicer way to feel comfortable, if you know they have your back.

Jonas Hiller

Those who give the first shock to a state are the first overwhelmed in its ruin; the fruits of public commotion are seldom enjoyed by him who was the first mover; he only beats the water for another's net.

Michel de Montaigne

My biggest advice for girls - and this is something that I wish I could have known when I was younger - is to have thick skin. It's something that you definitely develop when you get older, but when I first started, I was so obsessed with pleasing everybody. I wanted everybody to like me and to like my songs.

Kate Voegele

I try not to label myself anything, really, but you know, I'm definitely an indoorsy person, and I definitely kind of just try to, you know, stay away from life in the public eye, at least.

Macaulay Culkin

We definitely don't do everyone's tasks in the same order and that's quite useful. On someone's first day they might do it somewhat differently to how they'd do it on their last day because they become a different person by the end - they don't trust us anymore.

Alex Horne

The crowd reaction is something that I definitely love. When I first started if I walked out from behind that curtain and heard a pin drop or deafening silence, then you have to look at switching something up.

Eva Marie

There's definitely something to be said for having a dancing partner and trusting each other and having to create something together which then really informs the performance, in a way.
