For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one’s predicament into a human achievement.

I’’d love to see Sting come back. The guys that had the potential to make any money and draw any money, they came. The ones that made it, made it, and the ones that didn’’t, didn’’t. The list of those who made it, there’s lots… the list of those who didn’’t make it are longer then the ones who did.

Democracy is timelessly human, and timelessness always implies a certain amount of potential youthfulness

Skills have been de-emphasised in art, as elsewhere in the culture. The atomistic nature of our individuality is made clear in Warhol’s tongue-in-cheek ambition for us each to be ‘famous for fifteen minutes’. We’ve all got to be as creative as one another: to accept that some people will always be exceptional is uncomfortable for us. Instead of seeing great art as an indication of what humanity can achieve, it comes to be seen as an expression of what another being, a potential competitor, has achieved.

The potential of your body is endless

What we worry about is actually the potential negative aspects of wearing a mask, where people are not protecting their eyes, or other aspects of where the virus could enter your body, and that gives you a false sense of confidence.

The first ‘D’ is to dream: dream big – not for yourself, but for the country and for the world. The second ‘D’ is to discover: discover your full potential and the opportunities that surround you; and the third ‘D’ is to do. ‘Do’ means to act on your dreams and make best use of the opportunities you have discovered.

The great thing about visual horror films is there’s real potential for strong, beautiful imagery. It’s the one genre that really lends itself to creating strong images. And I’ve always loved that idea of windmills – your mind aimlessly spinning.

Instructing is instinctual craftsmanship, aware of potential, desiring of acknowledgment, a delaying, consistent procedure. 

Running the company for the shareholders often reduces its long-term growth potential.

I didn’t invent the turtleneck, Lana. But I was the first to see its potential as a tactical garment. The Tactical Turtleneck, Lana. The… Tactleneck!

The universe is always delivering change, both positive and negative, to help guide us toward our highest potential.

Perhaps I am stronger than I think

We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize

A human being is like a television set with millions of channels…. We cannot let just one channel dominate us. We have the seed of everything in us, and we have to recover our own sovereignty

Because you are alive, everything is possible.

I have no direct knowledge of this, but I suspect that Apple will launch a living room product that redefines people’s expectations really strongly, and the notion of a separate console platform will disappear concurrent with Apple’s announcement.

Everyone was telling me you have this great potential and you can be on top. I didn’t believe that, but everyone was just telling me to believe in myself. I did and I’m kind of up on top and it’s amazing.

Never let anyone define you or limit your potential. You define yourself.

Don’t let fear hold you back from reaching your full potential.

In those days, before it became scientific, cricket was the best game in the world to watch, with its rapid sequence of amusing incidents, each ball a potential crisis!

You perform at your highest potential only when you are focusing on the most valuable use of your time. This is the key to personal and business success.

The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.

The potential of the average person is like a huge ocean unsailed, a new continent unexplored, a world of possibilities waiting to be released and channeled toward some great good.

None of us will become perfect in a day or a month or a year. We will not accomplish it in a lifetime, but we can begin now, starting with our more obvious weaknesses and gradually converting them into strengths.

Limitless is your potential. Magnificent is your future.

The key to greatness is to look for people’s potential and spend time developing it.

Luck never built a business. Prosperity and growth come only to the business that systematically finds and exploits its potential.

Charlie Sheen has the potential to cause your soul to weep and forfeit

Everybody has the same energy potential. The average person wastes his in a dozen little ways. I bring mine to bear on one thing only: my paintings, and everything else is sacrificed to it…myself included.

Human potential is the same for all. Your feeling, “I am of no value”, is wrong. Absolutely wrong. You are deceiving yourself. We all have the power of thought – so what are you lacking? If you have willpower, then you can change anything. It is usually said that you are your own master.

It is under the greatest adversity that there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others.

It is under the greatest adversity that there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others.

The secret is to believe in your dreams; in your potential that you can be like your star, keep searching, keep believing and don’t lose faith in yourself.

Every human life contains a potential. If that potential is not fulfilled, then that life was wasted

Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one’s potential

Whether it is in the United States or in mainland Europe, written constitutions have one great weakness. That is that they contain the potential to have judges take decisions which should properly be made by democratically elected politicians.

My potential is more than can be expressed within the bounds of my race or ethnic identity.

Building a solid foundation in the early years of a child’s life will not only help him or her reach their full potential but will also result in better societies as a whole

There’s a lot of potential that goes unused in places like South Central L.A., a lot of brilliant, smart people who just don’t have that chance to shower it.

In every difficult situation is potential value. Believe this, then begin looking for it.

Nature has not been lavish in her endowments, but each person has his or her own potential in terms of achievement and service. The awareness of that potential is the discovery of purpose; the fulfillment of that potential is the discovery of strength

When you talk about black entrepreneurship, you’re talking about addressing the foundation of what’s going on with our people when we don’t have any financial power. Our basic needs aren’t being met in a lot of cases, so there’s no way we’re going to be able to tap into our potential until we address those bottom-level base needs

You’re alive. That means you have infinite potential. You can do anything, make anything, dream anything.

In order to do something you’ve never done, you’ve got to become someone you’ve never been. I think that all of us have great potential within us, but greatness is a choice; it’s not our destiny. And in the pursuit of our dreams we are introduced to trials, failures and disappointments , which take us to the door of discovery and greatness.

Everyone has inside of him a piece of good news. The good news is that you don’t know how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is

Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

You have young men of color in many communities who are more likely to end up in jail or in the criminal justice system than they are in a good job or in college. And, you know, part of my job, that I can do, I think, without any potential conflicts, is to get at those root causes.

Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it’s only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential.

We need to steer clear of this poverty of ambition, where people want to drive fancy cars and wear nice clothes and live in nice apartments but don’t want to work hard to accomplish these things. Everyone should try to realize their full potential.

The most useful pot is the pot which has been broken

Don’t accept the opinions of others because they do not see what great and valuable potential is inside you.

One of the greatest tragedies in life is to watch potential die untapped.

I have never doubted myself even if others did, I always believed I could get to where I am today and thank God this came true.

My one regret is that I didn’t win a trophy with Tottenham, despite us being a strong team who played good, attractive football.

If you focus on what you left behind, you will never see what lies ahead.

Happiness, not in another place, but this place…not for another hour, but this hour.

No matter how bad the situation , it could always be worse.

Animation can explain whatever the mind of man can conceive.
