I've just tried to grow up in the most natural and gradual process that I possibly can and make choices I feel are right for me and my fans.
I have a theory that no child ever does outgrow its ungratified legitimate desires; though subsequent maturity may bring him to the point where his original desire has reached such astounding proportions that the original object can no longer possibly appease it.
Here we will have possibly a bunch of tax dodgers deciding the election.
Challenges cannot possibly be good or bad. Challenges are simply challenges.
The English writer, Charles Lamb, said one day: "I hate that man. " "But you don't know him. " "Of course, I don't," said Lamb. "Do you think I could possibly hate a man I know?"
Between "just desserts" and "tragic irony" we are given quite a lot of scope for our particular talent. Generally speaking, things have gone about as far as they can possibly go when things have got about as bad as they reasonably get.
We cannot possibly take them all into this country [asylum seekers] - it is a completely unrealistic expectation.
Thus science strips off, one after the other, the more or less gross materialisations by which we endeavour to form an objective image of the soul, till men of science, speculating, in their non-scientific intervals, like other men on what science may possibly lead to, have prophesied that we shall soon have to confess that the soul is nothing else than a function of certain complex material systems.
. . . but there isn't going to be any First Lady. There is just to be plain, ordinary Mrs. Roosevelt. . . I never wanted to be the president's wife, and don't want it now. You don't quite believe me, do you? Very likely no one would-except possibly some woman who had had the job.
I have certainly not got re-elected to retire, and I shall certainly start trying to push my influence in politics as far as I possibly can
I think we've got a number of states coming up that we're going to do extremely well and possibly winning, including California and New York state. So I think we do have a path to victory.
Beyond the window, some kind of small, black thing shot across the sky. A bird, possibly. Or it might have been someone's soul being blown to the far side of the world.
Possibly, over the course of time, the brain capacity of homo sapiens will have made such great progress, that complications as contained in this game can be fathomed instantly with a shrug and a smile. Then, not only will the game of chess have ceased to exist, but also will the remembrance of frequently missed objectives elicit pity, as a reaction to the shortcomings of a lower organized form of life.
When people say to me, 'Why are you so good at writing at women?' I say, 'Why isn't everybody?' Obviously there are differences between men and women - that's what makes it all fun. But we're all people. There's a lot of good writers who are very humanist, but still manage to kind of skip fifty-five per cent of the race. And I just don't get that. Not to be able to write an entire gender? To me, the question isn't how do you do it? It's how can you possibly avoid doing it?
The average player would rather play than watch. Those who don't play can't possibly appreciate the subtleties of the game. Trying to get their attention with golf is like selling Shakespeare in the neighbourhood saloon.
Paul Newman is simple not an actor and possibly not even alive.
Those who have never suffered the iniquities of exile cannot possibly understand the significance, the gravitas, of a mattress.
The terrorists-those nineteen people, with hundreds or maybe thousands behind them-did the worst thing you can possibly imagine. But tens of millions people did the right thing. . . On 911, all the hatred and murder could not compare with the weight of love, of bravery, of caring.
One of my concerns is that the health care not be as good as it can possibly be.
So OK, it's your special big Four-O birthday But don't expect me to be obsequious and fawning You, being you, can't possibly be a good example So do try, at least, to serve as a warning
