The girl with a future avoids a man with a past.

A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.

Do not worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older it will avoid you.

To avoid being mistaken for a sellout I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets.

Widespread state control over art and culture has left no room for freedom of expression in the country. For more than 60 years anyone with a dissenting opinion has been suppressed. Chinese art is merely a product: it avoids any meaningful engagement. There is no larger context. Its only purpose is to charm viewers with its ambiguity.

Man should not try to avoid stress any more than he would shun food love or exercise.

I think the biggest thing is clean as you go. Wash all your knives cutting boards dishes when you are done cooking not look at a sink full of dishes after you are done. Cleaning as you go helps keep away cross contamination and you avoid having food borne bacteria.

I believe it's extremely important to include some other type of fitness activity in your training so cross training will help you to avoid injury when you are dancing.

Fitness needs to be perceived as fun and games or we subconsciously avoid it.

Fear nothing but what thy industry may prevent be confident of nothing but what fortune cannot defeat it is no less folly to fear what is impossible to be avoided than to be secure when there is a possibility to be deprived.

We have not sought this conflict we have sought too long to avoid it our forbearance has been construed into weakness our magnanimity into fear until the vindication of our manhood as well as the defence of our rights is required at our hands.

To seek understanding before taking action yet to trust my instincts when action is called for. Never to avoid danger from fear never to seek out danger for its own sake. Never to conform to fashion from fear of eccentricity never to be eccentric from fear of conformity.

If you reject the food ignore the customs fear the religion and avoid the people you might better stay at home.

This world of ours... must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate and be instead a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect.

I really had little interest in becoming famous. When I write my book it will be my guide to avoid becoming a rock star.

I don't have famous neighbours and if I did I'd avoid them. I don't live the jet-set.

It's really easy to avoid the tabloids. You just live your life and don't hang out with famous people who are in the tabloids. Don't do anything controversial and be a normal person. Have friends. And get a job and keep working.

People should watch out for three things: avoid a major addiction don't get so deeply into debt that it controls your life and don't start a family before you're ready to settle down.

With engineering I view this year's failure as next year's opportunity to try it again. Failures are not something to be avoided. You want to have them happen as quickly as you can so you can make progress rapidly.

It would be great to be able to pass on to someone all of the successes the failures and the knowledge that one has had. To help someone avoid all the fire pain and anxiety would be wonderful.

Failure should be our teacher not our undertaker. Failure is delay not defeat. It is a temporary detour not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing doing nothing and being nothing.

Not only did I avoid speaking of Salinger I resisted thinking about him. I did not reread his letters to me. The experience had been too painful.

In the revolt against idealism the ambiguities of the word experience have been perceived with the result that realists have more and more avoided the word.

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
