As soon as I realized you could be funny as a job that was the job I wanted.

I recently spent quite a bit of time in Sheffield England which is where I'm from. I wouldn't move back there but it's funny when you spend a bit of time in the place where you were brought up. You kind of realize how that place has had quite a big effect on you or made you a certain way.

It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

I always wanted to be somebody but now I realize I should have been more specific.

I've got some great guy friends. They can start out as crushes. But when you realize something isn't going to happen you make a choice whether or not the friendship is worth it. And it usually is. Then you can laugh about the fact that you used to have a crush on him or he had one on you.

Because if you lived as I did several years under Nazi totalitarianism and then 20 years in communist totalitarianism you would certainly realize how precious freedom is and how easy it is to lose your freedom.

We clearly realize that freedom's inner kingdom cannot be touched by exterior attacks.

I've come to realize that protecting freedom of choice in our everyday lives is essential to maintaining a healthy civil society.

Until you have lost your reputation you never realize what a burden it was or what freedom really is.

Human beings the world over need freedom and security that they may be able to realize their full potential.
