I had, like any other young novelist, started out by believing the difficult thing was to get published and that, once you managed that, well, your financial problems were over. I discovered, like any other serious novelist, that actually they had only just begun.
Mordecai Richler
-
It's much harder, much more work to be your own artist, and it's hard for me to just want to do one thing. I love doing my own music, but I really have to get into a groove with it, which has been difficult over the last few years because I've had so much great work coming in.
Gail Ann Dorsey

The thing I was up against in documentary films - was trying to get non-actors to convincingly play themselves in a way I'd come to know before the camera started rolling. And many non-actors can't do that convincingly, even if they just have to play themselves - they can't be naturalistic. And I would always want to recreate something I'd witnessed them do or say, and it just would be incredibly difficult because of the fact they weren't actors.
Terry Zwigoff
-
A winner's attitude: it may be difficult, but it's possible. A loser's attitude: It may be possible, but it's too difficult.
William James
-
England and all civilised nations stand in deadly peril of not having enough to eat. As mouths multiply, food resources dwindle. Land is a limited quantity, and the land that will grow wheat is absolutely dependent on difficult and capricious natural phenomena... I hope to point a way out of the colossal dilemma. It is the chemist who must come to the rescue of the threatened communities. It is through the laboratory that starvation may ultimately be turned into plenty... The fixation of atmospheric nitrogen is one of the great discoveries, awaiting the genius of chemists.
William Crookes
-

Hopefully we can be a band who has a career like U2 or Aerosmith or somebody like that but that's very far and few between. We're happy to be where we are at now, so it's a gift, you gotta just keep pushing forward. For all of us it's very easy to be out here and do what we do, easy in the sense that it's a gift but it can be difficult at times.
Barry Kerch

All the songs are pieces to the puzzle. They each represent something different. So it's really difficult to say one song represents the album.

No matter how difficult the situation is, it won't last forever. What follows the night is the day. What follows the winter is the spring.
Anthony Robbins
-
It's very difficult to move yourself up bit by bit. It's like trying to eat an elephant for God's sake. I can do it. It's just I have to have it bite by bite, you know. It's possible. You can eat an elephant, but you have to do it bite by bite. You can't do it all in one go.
Colin Montgomerie
-
It's certainly a lot more difficult to get a project made if you're talking about something progressive. That's just the nature of the industry.
Tim Robbins
-
I've only cried at one book, but I'm too embarrassed to tell you which. It wasn't terribly intellectual. I will admit, though, to crying when I've read books aloud to my elementary class. We read a biography of Gandhi once, and it was very difficult to read the part where Gandhi was killed, because they were waiting for a happy ending.
Rebecca Makkai
-
How do you get the protagonists and antagonists together, in the same space, without somebody having to die?

So then, of course, we had the tragedy with Andy Whitfield, which made everything very difficult and pushed back.

Richard Feynman
-
But why do only unimportant things?" asked Milo, who suddenly remembered how much time he spent each day doing them. "Think of all the trouble it saves," the man explained, and his face looked as if he'd be grinning an evil grin--if he could grin at all. "If you only do the easy and useless jobs, you'll never have to worry about the important ones which are so difficult. You just won't have the time. For there's always something to do to keep you from what you really should be doing, and if it weren't for that dreadful magic staff, you'd never know how much time you were wasting.
Norton Juster
