I like talking to engineers best. They built bridges, they're very precise, very disciplined, yet I find they have roving minds.

Ralph Richardson

I thought Obama ran the best campaign I have ever known - disciplined, well organised, very, very good. I was very impressed.

Nancy Reagan

People in the South are very organised and are thorough professionals besides being good paymasters. They are very disciplined and start and wrap up work on time.

Abhimanyu Singh

I voted for McCain. But I thought Obama ran the best campaign I have ever known - disciplined, well organized, very, very good. I was very impressed.

Nancy Reagan

I think the good thing about Macklemore is that he is very precise about what he gets involved in. As you can tell, he's very passionate about what he puts his name on, because he talks about things people don't usually talk about, and his concepts are very, very passionate.

Rita Ora

I've written what and when I want to. It's been about expressing myself. But with the degree, I had to learn to do everything in a very specific, disciplined way. I am very disciplined, but this demanded a totally different kind of discipline. A real challenge.

Joan Armatrading

The reason I put so much energy into it at the beginning was that while there were plenty of people looking after the talkies, almost nobody was doing the same for the silents. Now there are plenty of very good historians and restorers.

Kevin Brownlow

The thing about discipline is that people misunderstand the word discipline. People think discipline in the dog world is punishment. Discipline is how you achieve what you want to achieve in life. You have to be very focused, very disciplined, very consistent, very diligent. All of those things.

Cesar Millan

Very few people really care about freedom, about liberty, about the truth, very few. Very few people have guts, the kind of guts on which a real democracy has to depend. Without people with that sort of guts a free society dies or cannot be born.

Doris Lessing

We've often gotten the rep for being a player's coach. 'Talk sweet to 'em all the time.' In reality, we're very disciplined, very demanding. You can only be that way if you're fair and you're consistent.

Mack Brown

I had very supportive parents that made the way for me, even at a time when there were very few women - no women, really; maybe two or three women - and very few, fewer than that, African-American women heading in this direction, so there were very few people to look up to. You just had to have faith.

Leah Ward Sears

I've always been a very good judge of people. That's why I like so very few of them.

Donna VanLiere

If you wish to have power and influence over the many, be faithful (disciplined) when there is just a few. If you have a few employees, a few distributors, a few people, that's the time to stay in touch and be totally absorbed -- when there is just a few.

Jim Rohn

My music is very, very precise. It's very rigorous. The forms are much more intricate than you would imagine.

Meredith Monk

People often forget that even though training is very important, your diet also has to be very good. You have to get plenty of rest. That's when your body reacts to the training.

Hafthor Bjornsson

There are very few new things in this world, very few. That's why people that are young, if they're smart, try to profit from the experience of an older guy so they won't have to go through all the pain and suffering. But a certain amount of pain and suffer is good, because it makes a person think they've learned.
