A Quote by Ray Bradbury

I don’t write things to benefit the world. If it happens that they do, swell. I didn’t set out to do that. I set out to have a hell of a lot of fun.

I'm a person who, when I set out to write, I write. It's just like when you set out to eat, you eat, or when you set out to sleep, you sleep. I don't do somersaults to write something. I just do it.

Juan Gabriel

One set at extreme intensity does the muscle-building job. It must be stressed that the one final, all-out set I do takes me to the very limit of my capabilities. If you feel you can attempt a second set, then you couldn’t have been pulling out all the stops during the first set. It's not pretty, but it works.

Dorian Yates

I don't set out to make movies about famous people, though I guess I have. I think what I set out to do is to try to understand things that we don't understand. Or to find out what is blocking us from understanding things we should understand.

Davis Guggenheim

We definitely set out to make a great 'radio' record. We set out to write great hooky choruses-but with verses that said something.

LeAnn Rimes

When I'm on set, everybody always hangs out, especially on 'Euphoria' we're all the same age, so we would do tons of things together, which is a lot of fun.

Sydney Sweeney

I didn't set out to write certain kinds of songs - I just set out to write good songs.

Madonna Ciccone

We didn't, with 'Will & Grace,' set out to change the gay world. We just set out to be funny.

Eric McCormack

I never set out to write literature; I set out to tell stories. And some of my work may be very raunchy and very bloodthirsty - but life, for me, is a violent thing.

Wilbur Smith

I never set out to beat the world. I just set out to do my absolute best.

Al Oerter

I've been fortunate in life to benefit from family, educators, work colleagues, and a set of mentors and sponsors, all of whom did not hesitate to offer and support me with every opportunity to achieve what I set out to do.

Cathy Engelbert

I didn't accomplish what I set out to do, but I realized I had set out to do the wrong things

Jane McGonigal

I didn't set out to beat the world; I just set out to do my absolute best.

Shaun White

I never set out to write prayers at all. But there was a span of time when I didn't find it easy to pray, but, when I went to write one of the things I had to write, a prayer would come.

Gloria Gaither

It was a lot of fun on the set. I had the most fun making that movie out of all of them. I'm sure if I sat and thought about it, but none that I could think of offhand.

Jason Mewes

My process is pretty messy, and there's a lot of creative destruction in it. When I set out to write something, I'll write some passages from it just to figure out who these characters are, how they talk. And I have a dim sense of what it's about and where it's going to go, but I know that's going to change, too.

Jesse Andrews

When I set out to write, I want to write something that will rip your heart out.
