Quotations regarding 'Rain'
Training has been such a huge part of my life and career I hope to keep going with it.
David Prowse, British Actor (1935- )
I desire to assist in attracting to this profession young men of character and ability, also to help those already engaged in the profession to acquire the highest moral and intellectual training.
Joseph Pulitzer, American Publisher (1847-1911)
What I do say is that I can write verse, and that the writing of verse in strict form is the best possible training for writing good prose.
Philip Pullman, British Writer (1946- )
The traditional Christian attitude toward human personality was that human nature was essentially good and that it was formed and modified by social pressures and training.
Carroll Quigley, American Writer (1910-1977)
'Ouch' is not independent of social training. One has only to prick a foreigner to appreciate that it is an English word.
Willard Van Orman Quine, -
We hope that through these trade arrangements, through collaboration in training, in manpower development, and what have you, ASEAN in, say, ten years' time, will be a very different ASEAN.
Sellapan Ramanathan, Statesman (1924- )
Training is fabulous because it gives you a basis, a strong structure, so that when you're unbelievably nervous and you think that you can't get a word out, you will get the word out.
Charlotte Rampling, French Actress (1946- )
Education is more than Pisa. Particularly musical education. We also need education and training for more than reasons of usefulness and marketability.
Johannes Rau, German Statesman (1931-2006)
I must say acting was good training for the political life which lay ahead for us.
Nancy Reagan, American First Lady (1921- )
I came out of the Civil Rights Movement, and I had a different kind of focus than most people who have just the academic background as their primary training experience.
Bernice Johnson Reagon, American Musician (1942- )
I had only played five games in my senior year in high school. I was not large enough. Hell, when I graduated, I was about five foot four and weighed 120 pounds. I didn't go with the Dodgers until spring training of 1940 and I weighed all of 155 pounds soaking wet.
Pee Wee Reese, American Athlete (1918-1999)
Basically it starts with four months of training, just basic stretching, kicking and punching. Then you come to the choreography and getting ready to put the dance together.
Keanu Reeves, Canadian Actor (1964- )
I went from elementary school to proper training, operatic training, and I went on to the Motown University and learned a lot of things from some wonderful people.
Martha Reeves, American Musician (1941- )
We find that the Romans owed the conquest of the world to no other cause than continual military training, exact observance of discipline in their camps, and unwearied cultivation of the other arts of war.
Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus, Roman Writer
Few men are born brave. Many become so through training and force of discipline.
Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus, Roman Writer
They don't allow you to go any further unless you can do this bomb suit training, because it puts such a mental strain on your spirit. It dumbs you down about 25 to 30 IQ points. You start to hallucinate in the heat inside the suit after 20-30 minutes. So you try not to stay in it too dang long. So the preparation for that - it's either you have it, or you do not.
Jeremy Renner, American Actor (1971- )
I had to wait a while to get the scans back but it shows nothing in terms of needing surgery which is good. I hurt my AC joint and I just need to strengthen it. There is an outside chance to start training by the end of this week and if not than the start of next week.
Claudio Reyna, American Athlete (1973- )
We started training a month before the movie started and then by five months in, we were at our peak shape.
Ryan Reynolds, Canadian Actor (1976- )
That process by which you become a writer is a pretty lonely one. We don't have a group apprenticeship like a violinist might training for an orchestra.
Anne Rice, American Novelist (1941- )
It takes a couple of years just to get the background and knowledge that you need before you can go into detailed training for your mission.
Sally Ride, American Astronaut (1951- )
