Complainers change their complaints but they never reduce the amount of time spent in complaining.

So for a year I spent all my time hiding from Jack Charlton in the car park practising my skills.

It's not just the kid who's spent every penny from his job to upgrade his car to tell the world he cares about sports cars it's also the person driving around in a fuel-conscious hybrid electric car because it's more a message to the world than an effective means of saving fuel to be quite honest.

By the time the children go to bed I am as drained as any mother who has spent her day working car pooling building Lego castles and shopping for the precisely correct soccer cleat.

I've spent more on my Dodger tickets that I did on my car.

It seems to me I spent my life in car pools but you know that's how I kept track of what was going on.

I spent a lot of money on booze birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

At the end of drama school I made a contract with myself: I'd try acting for five years. I was 26. I had already spent eight years working in restaurants and gas stations. So I had seen enough small businesses to understand that that's what acting is: a small business.

It's time to fundamentally change the way that we do business in Washington. To help build a new foundation for the 21st century we need to reform our government so that it is more efficient more transparent and more creative. That will demand new thinking and a new sense of responsibility for every dollar that is spent.

He has spent his life best who has enjoyed it most. God will take care that we do not enjoy it any more than is good for us.
