Do you think I'm going to be one of those flash-in-the-pan actresses?
when you think you've got hold of a genius ... you can't be sure whether it's a spark of the divine fire or a mere flash in the pan.
I'm a flash in the pan: a novelty.
One of the hazards of making a major discovery early in your career is the burden of expectation, not helped in my case by becoming a wife and mother soon afterwards. I'm sure some people think it was a flash in the pan.
Wealth, if not a mere flash in the pan, compels the wealthy to become wealthier.
Once people see Bitcoin and how it works, they realise this isn't just a flash in the pan.
I thought it was all a flash in the pan. It wasn't until Broadway came along that I felt I had really made it.
The Brexit vote, the presidential elections in the U.S., a number of the other regional political movements - that's not a flash in the pan.
And I was in another band called Flash In The Pan, which was soca, Latin music, down in Laguna Beach.
Radiohead is one of the bands I appreciate. That's a great career band. It's not like critics are comparing us to a flash in the pan.
Tons of folktales have to do with hares and witches. Basically, witches all over Europe turn into hares and are able to do malevolent things in the form of a hare. It goes back to the great god Pan. Pan is, if we're going to do archetypal projections, related to the Christian Satan, but as a child, Pan was wrapped in a hare's hide.
And that dismal cry rose slowly And sank slowly through the air, Full of spirit's melancholy And eternity's despair; And they heard the words it said,- "Pan is dead! great Pan is dead! Pan, Pan is dead!"
I'm sort of focused on my long-term goal of carving out a career that's for life, rather than being a flash in the pan.
Anyone who says rock 'n' roll is a passing fad or a flash-in-the-pan trend along the music road has rocks in the head.
I saw several actresses play the part. I did not in fact, as far as I know, do anything that any of the other actresses did. I don't think actresses do that. I think that what we do is we see a role as a role, we don't see it as a person. We look at the role and think, 'What can I, as an actor, bring to that part?
I want in 40 years to still be acting and to more than anything have longevity and not just be this huge flash in the pan and then disappear.
Pop music was supposed to be a flash in the pan, but here we are 50 years later and it means something to us, and it always will do. It's incredibly important.
