A Quote by Wade Barrett

I realized, statistically, the chances of me getting to the WWE and being very successful were very slim. I always hoped it would happen for me.

I worked very hard to try and figure out what I thought and I believed that we were going to succeed and that revolutions would happen globally and we would be a part of that and we would have then not capitalism. We would have values based on human lives, not profit. We would actually transform the kinds of ways people built love and built community. It was a very shocking thing to me, out of the end of the 70s and the beginning of the 80s, to realize that that dream - while I still believed in it - was not going to happen in the way that I had hoped.

Amber Hollibaugh

When it was first optioned, I was told that the chances of The Basic Eight becoming a film were slim because no one was making teen movies, and then later, I was told that the chances were slim because there were so many teen movies, and then I was later told that the chances were slim because teen films were over. I'm not sure when the magic window of opportunity was, but perhaps it's still on the horizon.

Daniel Handler

I'm very blessed, mainly because even though my family is mostly in show business, it's really centered around music. My parents were very successful in many ways, but they weren't necessarily top of the charts. We were never wealthy because of music. We always had to work and we always had to struggle a little bit, and I think at the end of the day that's been very good for me, because I have a sense of it being very ephemeral.

Rufus Wainwright

There is always someone you are going to miss and for me it's my dad. I always hoped he would see me marry, but these things happen in life. I know he is proud of me.

Declan Donnelly

I was always confident in my ability, I was always confident in the talent that I had, and I felt WWE was a very good fit for me. After it didn't happen for a couple of years and I had a knee surgery and everything, there were times I had doubts.

Jason Jordan

I've realized the person that I've always been and this gift that I've always had just had to be brought to light. It surprised me the most that being more who I am and not who I thought I had to be would make me successful.

Jason Mitchell

I went through my whole life wanting to feel I belonged. I was very, very lonely, so I would marry people that I wasn't really in love with, and who weren't right for me, because I hoped they would be.

Lana Wood

I could prove God statistically. Take the human body alone - the chances that all the functions of an individual would just happen is a statistical monstrosity.

George Gallup

Getting to have a higher purpose other than just being successful is very necessary for me.

Zac Brown

I do remember, one time, a man came to me after the students began to work in Mississippi and he said the white people were getting tired and they were getting tense and anything might happen. Well, I asked him "how long he thinks we had been getting tired"? I have been tired for 46 years and my parents was tired before me and their parents were tired, and I have always wanted to do something that would help some of the things I would see going on among Negroes that I didn't like and I don't like now.

Fannie Lou Hamer

While I was working for the WWE in 2013 and 2014, TV deals had come to me, movie deals had come to me, sponsorship deals had come to me, and they were all turned down by WWE because they would involve me being taken away from their shows.

If I'm a director and I read a script and I say yeah I really want to do this, I would never walk away because the deal wasn't very good - that I wasn't getting paid very much or that the chances that I would see anything on the back end were remote because of the financial waterfall and the way it's structured. I would never use that as a reason not to do something.

Steven Soderbergh

I was never really aware of being famous. Being in a magazine or on a billboard - that really didn't register to me at all when I was younger. People would come up to me and recognize me, but I was very fortunate in that people were always so warm.

Fred Savage

The chances of me getting into the Hall of Fame as a racer are slim to none. But as an owner I have a chance to do something special, mostly because I learned a lot of secrets from Dale.

Michael Waltrip

It's very motivating, very aspiring to have the knowledge of me being able to be successful so young and have players go out of their way to talk about me.
