A Quote by Ernie J Zelinski

The universe defies you to answer the following questions: What good is a high paying career if it leaves you continually stressed out and miserable? What good is owning a large stately house if the only time you spend in it is when you sleep in it? What good is having a lot of interesting possessions if you never have the free time to enjoy them? Above all, what good is having a family if you seldom see any of its members?

I don't want to impose rules on people, but you have only a short window, and you're sorely mistaken if you think you can put off having a family. It's very hard to find a good man, and it's never a 'good time' to have a baby if you have a career.

Mika Brzezinski

I like to think I'm a pretty good friend. I love having a good time, and I enjoy being able to share those good times with others.

Jacob Batalon

What it boils down to is the vibe of the audience. If they're having a good time, we're having a good time. We feed off them.

Tony Kanal

Travel writing is harrowing. You are in paradise, more or less, having to prove it is paradise. It is hard to have a good time trying to figure out a way to say you are having a good time, whether you are having it or not, even in paradise.

Padgett Powell

I just try to have a good time, enjoy my family, enjoy my life. I was having a blast when I was poor, and I'm having maybe a little bit more now that I've got something in the bank.

Mark Cuban

If I go into a restaurant there's a very good chance that I'm going to spend my time being the mayor. If I want to have a good time, I'm happier having dinner here.

Jack Nicholson

I'm having a good time watching Shooter. He's a good kid. He's been a good son to me. He has never failed.

Jessi Colter

I certainly realize that not only do I like the horror genre, but I'm getting really good at it and I'm having a good time making them.

Elisha Cuthbert

We're having a good time. That's what I did last year. If you can't have a good time, you might as well stay home. I feel real good.

Sterling Marlin

Though people see me in a good light all the time, I turn off my phone and take time to have a good conversation with myself while enjoying nature alone when I'm having a hard time.

Yunho

When I'm writing, quite often I start having a good time when I see there's a chance to make myself look like a real jerk. I start chuckling and having an interesting, rather than a boring, time.

Geoff Dyer

In terms of fiction, I'd rather go out and have a good time than read a book about someone having a good or bad time.

Joni Mitchell

The estate taxes, on balance, are good. They get people to give money to charity, and they prevent these family dynasties which keep other people from having opportunities. It may be good for a family, but for society it's probably not good. And I've always been in favor of having an estate tax.

Michael Bloomberg

For sleep, riches and health to be truly enjoyed and gratefully appreciated, they must be interrupted so the person can see that not having them is not as good as having them.

Jean Paul

I am very conscious that, having worked part time, having had a rather disrupted career, my research record is a good deal patchier than any man's of a comparable age.
