If you ask what is the single most important key to longevity, I would have to say it is avoiding worry, stress and tension. And if you didn`t ask me, I`d still have to say it.
George F. Burns
Mere longevity is a good thing for those who watch Life from the side lines. For those who play the game, an hour may be a year, a single day`s work an achievement for eternity.
Helen Hayes
A man ninety years old was asked to what he attributed his longevity. I reckon, he said, with a twinkle in his eye, it because most nights I went to bed and slept when I should have sat up and worried.
Garson Kanin
It`s easy to take the check, you know, but if you want to have any longevity, just take things that have artistic merit in them. I want to do quality. If it`s good telly, I`ll do it. If it`s good theater, I`ll do it.
Cillian Murphy
They should be very versatile. Versatility is what`s going to give them the longevity. The world is opening up and a lot more stories and a lot more interesting scenes to portray in film. Versatility will help them. They must be able to see the world, lea...
Wesley Snipes
Sean Penn and Clint Eastwood have told me that I shouldn`t feel that I need to be in the limelight or the spotlight all the time. A career is about longevity, as shown in their careers. So, I really want to only do the best things and work with the best p...
Emmy Rossum
I think my longevity has a lot to do with where I come from -- a blue-collar town in Ohio -- and how I was raised: to work hard and respect other folks.
Robert Urich
I don`t go to premieres. I attend film openings I`m in, and that`s about it. Fame and celebrity doesn`t matter to me. The longevity of my career does.
Eva Mendes
I`ve never been the kind of actress whose sole interest was sex appeal, so I think that earns you some longevity. And I like character parts. It`s a lot more fun and you don`t have to rely on being the taste of the moment. That level of fame is probably v...
Anjelica Huston
There were certain perceptions that people had of me, you know...`He`s dumb,` or `he`s just got a pretty face,` or `he`s a thug,` or `he can only do one thing.` I`m not so concerned with that now. Longevity`s what it`s about.
Matt Dillon
I like to diversify. And I am all about longevity. I want to be doing this for as long as I can. I have made, I think, 72 pictures now. And I have made a lot of studio stuff and I have made a lot of low-budget stuff. The fun of making independent films is...
Michael Madsen
I`m picky, very picky. I wanted to be an actor since I was nine years old and I figured that was only one way to ever have any longevity and that`s to be careful about what kind of work you do. You can work for money, do a lot of whatever comes your way a...
Sam Elliott
[about his friend, Jerry Goldsmith] His chameleon adaptability was a prerequisite to longevity and success in Hollywood. We used to call him Gorgeous. He was the golden boy, a beautiful presence. His music had a freshness, and he had a freshness.
John Williams
Well, he did sell a lot of records, ... I`d rather hear Sister Gertrude in the Top 10 than the new Ludacris. I want us to release pop records, but in the sense of our pop ? just good songs with longevity that people can sing. Whatever happens, we`re embar...
King Britt
Those are the most successful people if they go to a class. When they come and just want to do a machine, sometimes the longevity isn`t as much.
Jennifer Anderson
The great increase in longevity has produced a surge in the desire to accumulate assets for retirement. It has outpaced the ability of the private sector to produce assets, so we need a larger government debt.
Andrew Schepers
Somebody said to me this morning, `To what do you attribute your longevity?` I don`t know. I mean, I couldn`t have planned my life out better. By all accounts I should be dead! The abuse I put my body through: the drugs, the alcohol, the lifestyle I`ve li...
Ozzy Osbourne
So I try not to do press and if you can keep the balance of keeping a certain degree of anonymity and do interesting work then you can hope for a degree of career longevity.
Charlie Hunnam
Longevity is definitely one of the reasons we have been so successful. We have so much experience in the herbal industry, and our customer service is fantastic.
Anil Kakodkar
If you ask what is the single most important key to longevity, I would have to say it is avoiding worry, stress and tension. And if you didn`t ask me, I`d still have to say it.
