A Quote by Donovan Mitchell

I don't like being told what you're good at. I'd rather hear what I didn't do. — © Donovan Mitchell
I don't like being told what you're good at. I'd rather hear what I didn't do.
The American people, I think, are tired of being told. They're tired of being told this is as good as it gets. They're tired of being told, like Ronald Reagan used to say, that little intellectual elite in a far distant capital can plan our lives better for us than we can plan them for ourselves.
Being told that you are good at banter is like being told that you are a good person.
I am very good at being told off and rather enjoy it.
Being in a rage was rather like being out in a thunderstorm - you couldn't hear yourself think.
People are tired of being told that this is as good as it gets. They hear in Donald Trump someone who says, 'We can do better.'
I like playing at public schools. I like when there's more of a diverse audience. I'll play wherever people want to hear my music, and I'll be glad and grateful for the opportunity, but I'd rather not play for a bunch of white privileged kids. I'm not meaning that in a disrespectful way; you go where people want to hear your music. So if that's where people want to hear me play, I'm glad to play for them. But I'd rather play for an audience where half of them were not into it than one where all of them were pretending to be into it, for fear of being uncultured.
Maybe today we aren't being told that our brains are not capable of such things [like programming], but we [as a women] are being told that we are not good enough or smart enough or that our successes do not belong to us.
I'll never get tired of being told I sound like Waylon Jennings, but I don't hear it myself.
I have been told in the past that's my downfall but I'd rather be too nice to be honest. I set out in cricket to make friends. I'd rather people say they enjoyed playing with him and he's a good guy, not he's a good player but a bit of a so and so.
Despite all that good news, there's plenty of horror stories being told. All of them are untrue, but they're being told all over America.
We grow up being told, "Be a good girl." When you're told to be good, you have to get rid of whatever is bad.
Being alive is being aware, being able to be touched and moved and changed, being able to respond rather than to react, being able to see and hear.
Don’t worry about it. We’re used to being told to go screw ourselves. And that’s from the people who actually like us. You should hear what our enemies say. (Nykyrian)
We're always pitching ideas and being told "no thank you." No offense taken, because I would so much rather be told the truth that they're not interested and be able to find the right show for that network down the line.
A game one of my sisters will play with me in my first year of being alive is called Good Baby, Bad Baby. This consists of being told I am a good baby until I smile and laugh, then being told I am a bad baby until I burst into tears. This training will stand me in good stead all through my life.
Can you hear the dreams crackling like a campfire? Can you hear the dreams sweeping through the pine trees and tipis? Can you hear the dreams laughing in the sawdust? Can you hear the dreams shaking just a little bit as the day grows long? Can you hear the dreams putting on a good jacket that smells of fry bread and sweet smoke? Can you hear the dreams stay up late and talk so many stories?
