He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest.
- Theodor Adorno
Men are like shoes. Some fit better than others. And sometimes you go out shopping and there's nothing you like. And then, as luck would have it, the next week you find two that are perfect, but you don't have the money to buy both.-
- Janet Evanovich
As with all journeys, the Way has an end, though it should not be imagined as a straight road leading to a fixed destination but rather as a majestic mountain whose peak conceals the presence of God. There are, of course, many paths to the summit-some better than others. But because every path eventually leads to the same destination, which path one takes is irrelevant.
- Reza Aslan
I always show up to work and give it everything, and some things turn out better than others - and some things you can expect that it will come out better than others.
- James Van Der Beek
I believe that I understand gangs better than others. Because they're formed out of necessity. They're formed by people to keep from being suppressed.
- Jack Bowman
Further, Take heed that you faithfully perform the business you have to do in the world, from a regard to the commands of God; and not from an ambitious desire of being esteemed better than others.
- David Brainerd
A man can keep another's secret better than his own. A woman her own better than others.
- Jean De La Bruyere
And you find as a writer there are certain spots on the planet where you write better than others, and I believe in that. And New Orleans is one of them.
- Jimmy Buffett
There is no such thing as a bad beer. It's that some taste better than others.
- Billy Carter
There is no such thing as bad whiskey. Some whiskeys just happen to be better than others. But a man shouldn't fool with booze until he's fifty; then he's a damn fool if he doesn't.
- William Faulkner
I'm a regular part of the TV audience world, and I know that I like shows that I would watch. And this is a series that I definitely would watch. And some episodes are better than others.
- Joe Flanigan
Life is a struggle, I would tell him. Some days are better than others, and every person's life is bittersweet, filled with joy and pain.
- Dorothea Benton Frank
LAW 46
Never Appear Too Perfect
Appearing better than others is always dangerous, but most dangerous of all is to appear to have no faults or weaknesses. Envy creates silent enemies. It is smart to occasionally display defects, and admit to harmless vices, in order to deflect envy and appear more human and approachable. Only gods and the dead can seem perfect with impunity.
- Robert Greene
I've gotten away with a lot in my life. The older you get the more you realize you're not getting away with it, it's taking its toll somewhere. So you try not to put yourself in those situations. Part of the mysterious process called growing up. Some people do that better than others.
- Jon Hamm
When you repeat, in that wooden and perfunctory way, that our situation is better than others, that we're 'well-placed to weather the storm', I have to tell you that you sound like a Brezhnev-era apparatchik giving the party line.
- Daniel Hannan
What it means is that some of Charles' press secretaries have been better than others as some of the Queen's press secretaries have been better than others.
- Anthony Holden
It was acting, and WWE is the longest-running weekly episodic program in television. Sure, there are story lines that are better than others.
- Linda Mcmahon
Anyone can write. Some people can write a bit better than others; they're called authors. Then there are some who can write better than authors; they're called artists.
- Walter Moers
My concentration level blocks out everything. Concentration is why some athletes are better than others. You develop that concentration in training and concentrate in a meet.
- Edwin Moses
Don't simply knock and wait for the door to be opened. Go look for the keys. Some fit the lock better than others.
- Christopher Pike
And no kinds of love are better than others
- Lou Reed
It's something that was very interesting to me to be a part of and all of them again because of the relationship. Some of the superhero movies are better than others.
- Blair Underwood
Noelle: But I look like a freak now.
Craig: I told you, Noelle, everybody has problems. Some people just hide their crap better than others. But people aren't going to look at you and run away. They're going to look at you and think that they can talk to you, and that you'll understand, and that you're brave, and that you're strong. And you are. You're brave and strong. p.366-367
- Ned Vizzini
So much time is wasted on trying to be better than others.
- Elijah Wood
