(on Carol Reed) He was always a director who got as much out of actors as could possibly be gotten. And he could stage individual scenes as well as they could possibly be staged. If he had a weakness, which I admit he has, it was that he didn`t have a sufficiently keen story sense.
- James MasonOn horror: "I don`t take stuff seriously. I saw `Hellraiser 3` the other day at Cannes; it`s OK, it`s a good film, I didn`t hate it or anything. I thought it was quite good, but it was all just so serious. Some guy walking round with pins sticking out of his face. I just can`t sit there and think ,`this is really scary.` If I made a `Hellraiser` film, I`d like Pinhead to be whacked against a wall and have all the pins flattened into his face. I immediately start thinking of funny things and gags - that`s just the way I am. I doubt I could ever control myself sufficiently to make a serious horror film."
- Peter Jackson(on Carol Reed) He was always a director who got as much out of actors as could possibly be gotten. And he could stage individual scenes as well as they could possibly be staged. If he had a weakness, which I admit he has, it was that he didn`t have a sufficiently keen story sense.
- James MasonAny sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
- Arthur C. ClarkeI like the idea of bringing cartoon characters to life... and although the Americans have already attempted this, their culture is not sufficiently humane to make it work.
- Gérard DepardieuI`m afraid I`m not sufficiently inhibited about the things that other women are inhibited about for me. They feel that you`ve given away trade secrets.
- Mary McCarthyAt home (in Sweden), the actor`s profession was not considered particularly reputable, but being an actor or star in a Hollywood film was something very important in American eyes. Then I slowly realized that as an actor in Sweden you were allowed to be involved in some kind of artistic project which could be a flop and yet still be justifiable if it carried artistic weight and ambitions. In Hollywood, on the other hand, if you do not succeed you are nobody. You become a mere piece of paper with a figure on it. You are just as good-or bad-as your last film was financially. And while Sweden remains sufficiently small for you to work in, say, Malmö and still make films in Stockholm, in the States you either work in Hollywood or you live somewhere else and you work for the legitimate theater.
- Max von SydowWith waits of up to 8 weeks for a routine screen for STI in some parts of the country and some people being turned away who may never get seen, STIs will continue to rise until capacity is increased sufficiently in specialist services with the experience to deal with cases efficiently and speedily.
- Angela RobinsonWith waits of up to eight weeks for a routine screen for STI in some parts of the country and some people being turned away who may never get seen, STIs will continue to rise until capacity is increased sufficiently in specialist services with the experience to deal with cases efficiently and speedily.
- Angela RobinsonHappiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. If the dispositions of the parties are ever so well known to each other or ever so similar beforehand, it does not advance their felicity in the least. They always continue to grow sufficiently unlike afterwards to have their share of vexation; and it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of the person with whom you are to pass your life.
- Jane AustenIf I were sufficiently romantic I suppose I`d have killed myself long ago just to make people talk about me. I haven`t even got the conviction to make a successful drunkard.
- John Dos PassosThe issues involved are sufficiently important that courses are now moving out of the philosophy departments and into mainstream computer science. And they affect everyone. Many of the students attracted to these courses are not technology majors, and many of the topics we discuss relate to ethical challenges that transcend the computer world.
- Michael QuinnIt does not seem to me to be sufficiently recognized everywhere among the officials that the existence or non-existence of our people and Empire is at stake.
- Paul von HindenburgI prefer the company of peasants because they have not been educated sufficiently to reason incorrectly.
- Adam SpenceA lifetime is more than sufficiently long for people to get what there is of it wrong.
- Adin DavisI had no inducement to proceed further into the interior. I had been sufficiently disappointed in the termination of this excursion, and the track before me was still less inviting.
- Alan GrieveThe soy-bean, in particular, has proved sufficiently resistant to cold in spring and to adverse weather during summer to warrant heavy planting, especially throughout the South.
- Alan RupeIt has often struck me that the relation of two important members of the social body to one another has never been sufficiently considered, or treated of, so far as I know, either by the philosopher or the poet.
- Alfred Lord TennysonThe private interest of the individual would not be sufficiently provided for by reasonable and cool self-love alone; therefore the appetites and passions are placed within as a guard and further security, without which it would not be taken due care of.
- Allan RossThat is never too often repeated, which is never sufficiently learned.
- Alton GreeneA life is not sufficiently elevated for poetry, unless, of course, the life has been made into an art.
- Amanda AbelI was on the Oprah Winfrey Show once. It was a really slow news day for Oprah, and there were several of us on `cause none of us was sufficiently interesting by his or herself.
- André RouxThe trifle now inscribed with your name. was occasioned by a particular fact; but to the disgrace of human nature, the subject is sufficiently general to interest every heart not totally impenetrable.
- Andrew BrustThey never lower the tax rate sufficiently to get rid of the windfall profit that falls to the government.
- Ann NishidaThe goal of achieving a diverse student body is sufficiently compelling to justify consideration of race ... under some circumstances.
- Ashley FioreWith this process improvement, ProFlu-1 is now sufficiently streamlined that it can be effectively used in the highest throughput labs, ... In the first week after release, we have shipped ProFlu-1 to several of the largest and most prestigious US labs.

- Michel de MontaigneIf a woman is sufficiently ambitious, determined and gifted - there is practically nothing she can`t do
- Helen LawrensonFor one man who thanks God that he is not as other men there are a thousand to offer thanks that they are as other men, sufficiently as others are to escape attention
- John DeweyA man sufficiently gifted with humor is in small danger of succumbing to flattering delusions about himself, because he cannot help perceiving what a pompous ass he would become if he did
