I've always said that I've been acting my whole life, and everyone always told me, 'you should be an actress professionally.' I've heard that my whole life, so it's kind of cool to think, 'yeah, they were right.' I can do this and I'm good at it, and that feels really good.

Julia Fox

I've been told I have pretty big hands my whole life.

Jared Goff

My whole life, I've been told to 'wait my turn' and 'know my place.'

My whole life, I have been told to focus on my sport. But at the end of the day, I'm a human and I'm fighting for things bigger than just my sport.

Some of us have been told what we want our whole lives. We've been told we should want to go out for sports or not. We should want a college education or a graduate degree or a particular career. We should want to date this person and not the other.

Bob Goff

The problem, as I see it, is that you've been told and not told. You've been told, but none of you really understand, and I dare say, some people are quite happy to leave it that way.

Kazuo Ishiguro

It's been amazing to play the same character through so many adventures. And it's so strange because my life has changed so much over these years, but 'Twilight' and Edward Cullen will always be a part of me. It's been my whole life. My whole 20s. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Robert Pattinson

I have been running so sweaty my whole life Urgent for a finish line And I have been missing the rapture this whole time Of being forever incomplete

Alanis Morissette

The schizophrenic may indeed be mad. He is mad. He is not ill. I have been told by people who have been through the mad experience how what was then revealed to them was veritable manna from Heaven. The person's whole life may be changed, but it is difficult not to doubt the validity of such vision. Also, not everyone comes back to us again.

R. D. Laing

Any career if you're that passionate about it and you really want to do it, then you should go for it, absolutely. I will say acting is one of the hardest businesses, from what I've been told, even though it's the only business I've been doing my whole life. But knowing other people trying to break into it, I hear it's one of the hardest businesses to break into.

Tiffani Thiessen

I've been shortchanged and overlooked my whole life. And if you boo-hoo about everything, that's all you're going to do your whole life.

Ralphie May

Trans people have been repeatedly told that we don't have the right to live. And Black people have been told that by our slave masters and continue to be told that by society. We have, generationally, bled this kind of hatred.
