Living in an age of advertisement, we are perpetually disillusioned. The perfect life is spread before us every day, but it changes and withers at a touch.
Joseph Priestley
Pitiful is the person who is afraid of taking risks. Perhaps this person will never be disappointed or disillusioned; perhaps she won`t suffer the way people do when they have a dream to follow. But when the person looks back-she will hear her heart
Paulo Coelho
There was a period when I became disillusioned with the politics of what goes on in show business. My mom had missed a lot of her childhood, so I figured it would be a good time to hang up my acting shoes . . . I was probably reading too much J.D. Salinge...
Mackenzie Astin
I went into the business for the money, and the art grew out of it. If people are disillusioned by that remark, I can`t help it. It`s the truth.
Charlie Chaplin
When she was younger, my mother was quite committed to Roman Catholicism. But she got disillusioned with it and moved closer to something like Buddhist beliefs near the end of her life.
Ralph Fiennes
We picked the title just to show them that we`re aware of the fact, that we`re slightly disillusioned and aware of what goes on in the music business.
Mark McGrath
So our problem is not Labour, it is us, is making us attractive enough to gain disillusioned Labour support and to compete effectively with the Lib Dems for those loose votes.
Alex Bawek
Seeing how those companies operate, it didn`t amount to a massive vote of confidence in their artists. There was talk of me going to Columbia after that, but nothing happened. I got disillusioned, and I pulled back.
Madeleine Peyroux
I do feel part of that generation of people who were rather idealistic in the `70s and became disillusioned in the `80s. Not just about social services issues, but the world.
