A Quote by Billy Boyd

I think I have a gift, but I haven't really opened that gift yet and given it to myself. — © Billy Boyd
I think I have a gift, but I haven't really opened that gift yet and given it to myself.
I think I have a gift... but I haven't really opened that gift yet and given it to myself.
A gift that cannot be given away ceases to be a gift. The spirit of a gift is kept alive by its constant donation.
My ability to throw a baseball was a gift. It was a God-given gift. And I am truly appreciative of that gift.
One thing you gotta know about Roy. The way I always saw myself, is I'm just like you. In the ring, I have a gift...That gift ain't on the basketball court. That gift ain't at home. You understand me? That gift is in the ring.
I think it's the strength of her music, using art to make a statement. I think it really is. It was not a cheap gift. The gift was an expensive gift for Nina [Simone]. Diamonds are expensive. Her music was expensive. She paid for it, but I think it's her greatest gift.
Yeah, I think it's like any God-given gift. You writers have the gift of perception. If you don't use it, you're going to lose it. And it's the same thing with you [Lorraine], it's God-given.
I just think it's a blessing that I was able to have the gift of words and to be able to put them into music. I was given a great gift all the way around. I didn't ever have to really go out and look for songs, you know.
When you look back on a lifetime and think of what has been given to the world by your presence, your fugitive presence, inevitably you think of your art, whatever it may be, as the gift you have made to the world in acknowledgment of the gift you have been given, which is the life itself... That work is not an expression of the desire for praise or recognition, or prizes, but the deepest manifestation of your gratitiude for the gift of life.
The giving and receiving is the tricky thing. It's not the gift. It's what the heart says in giving the gift, and from my point of view, one doesn't give or receive - that's a role we have to play. But the gift - it's God's gift. I think that it's better to be souls than roles.
The gift of self cannot be given to us. It is an incomparable gift that has already been given. We have possessed it from the beginning.
I was young and ambitious and had the gift of dancing. I tried out for different things and the gift opened doors for me.
That's another pompous expression that is out of fashion, to say that poetry is a gift. It sounds pompous because you say, 'Who gave you the gift, and what is this gift?' And the gift is where I am; the gift is what I have come out of, the people around me who, I think, are beautiful people.
For people who write songs, it's a gift you're given. You become good at the craft, but you're given the gift.
This life that has been given to us as a gift, as such a precious gift. To really try to understand it, really try to recognize it, is the greatest meditation. Through the media of this Knowledge we can tap into our inner sources that are so beautiful.
I think if you think of yourself as religious and if you're given a gift, some may not think it's that great a gift - some critics. But others might, you know. So you say, look - whether it's good, bad or indifferent, this is what I do.
My voice is a gift. My talent is a gift. The life process is a gift. The opportunity for the journey is a gift.
