School days are the unhappiest in the whole span if human existence. They are full of dull, unintelligible tasks, new and unpleasant ordinances, with brutal violations of common sense and common decency.
Henry Louis Mencken
Since I started out very young, I definitely knew where he was coming from, and I knew his attention span was probably a lot shorter than us adults. I had to play with that and work with that, but he really did give a beautiful performance.
Tiffani Thiessen
I thought, hopefully this will be better than other HBO specials, and I`ll get whatever rewards come with that. Maybe somebody will want me to do a sitcom - if I`m lucky. Next thing they were talking about it on C-Span, and I`m like, Huh? My only goal was...
Chris Rock
My concentration span is truly that of a gnat. Some people have this ladder, and that`s all there is - the ladder. I have the ladder, too, but there`s a building around it with scaffolding, and lots of windows for me to peek into. Then suddenly I`ll remem...
Natascha McElhone
An actor must interpret life and, in order to do so, must be willing to accept all the experiences life has to offer. In fact, he must seek out more of life than life puts at his feet. In the short span of his lifetime, an actor must learn all there is to...
James Dean
About her long career in entertainment: "This is my tenth year now, so things have changed within this span of time - so drastically that when I look at the work done when I just joined, it`s like, "Oh my God!" So much has changed in these ten years. You ...
Aishwarya Rai
About Rekha: "Rekha is very inspiring. It is not necessarily relative to just one performance, but her entire career, the span of characters that she has essayed, the performances that she has delivered itself is extremely inspiring. I am inspired by her ...
Aishwarya Rai
I have an extraordinary attention span. I manage to juggle two or three different ideas at the same time, and that`s probably, if I have a gift, that`s probably the best gift that`s given me. (2007)
Paul Newman
I think we all had that as a concern. That monster there is like a producer`s dream, isn`t it? Any one of us could get bumped off at any time and we`re all aware of it. It keeps you on your toes. - on the potential short life-span of characters on "Lost"
Naveen Andrews
You`ll get name recognition. The proceedings will no doubt be on C-SPAN. That doesn`t strike me as being a foolish expenditure of money.
Barbara Keshen
We do as much harm holding onto programs and people past their natural life span as we do when we employ massive organizational air strikes. However, destroying comes at the end of life`s cycle, not as a first response.
Alyaksandr Milinkevich

They fail to recognize the broad biological principle that organic material is constantly being recycled. Everything has a time of being - a birth, a life span, and a death.
Alan Walters
There were so many individuals and companies that were very instrumental in making this project happen in this short time span, said Scott Bass, director of Administrative Services, Glades County School District.
Mike Dunn
The roads just break apart through the years. It was around 18 years ago Country Road was paved. The life span for a road is 10 years, so we are past due.
Dan Green
The kids` attention span is limited anyway. They`re happy to see a little, move on, come back to the ship, hang out with the friends they`ve made and eat American food for dinner.
David Fowler
Studies have shown that daily doses of hydroxyurea decrease the number of painful crises a person may experience and lengthen their life span as well,
Dorothy Moore
Plus the public`s attention span is so short right now, if a skater doesn`t strike while the iron is hot... well it`s not like people will forget you, but they just won`t care anymore.
Brian Boitano
My music is the opposite of Nintendo. It works best for people who have an active attention span and are able to create worlds inside their head. It`s a stimulus for the imagination, and it requires a bit more from the listener to build a world between th...
Robert Rich
It`s not unusual for us to change a game or start a new one. Typically, every game has a life span, and you have what we call game fatigue. We thought it was a good time for a new game that looks and plays differently.
