Terrorism is an attention seeking crime. ~ Thisuri Wanniarachchi
Attention Seeking quotes by Thisuri Wanniarachchi
It's always worthless sort of person who puts himself out in order to get somebody else worked up. ~ Riichi Yokomitsu
Attention Seeking quotes by Riichi Yokomitsu
All actors are naughty. We're all troublemakers - horrible, attention-seeking children. 'Me, me, look at me!' ~ Sienna Guillory
Attention Seeking quotes by Sienna Guillory
All serial murders are not sexually-based. There are many other motivations for serial murders including anger, thrill, financial gain, and attention seeking." It became clear from our research that financial gain was a huge motivator for Gosnell. ~ Ann McElhinney
Attention Seeking quotes by Ann McElhinney
I'm terribly attention-seeking. It's very different once you get all this attention, though. Because then you want to control it. And you can't exactly. ~ David Walliams
Attention Seeking quotes by David Walliams
There's nothing worse than having a fit and no one giving you the proper attention for it. ~ Christina Henry
Attention Seeking quotes by Christina Henry
Anxiously attached Codependents demonstrate the ability to maximize the attention they get from their partner, regardless of whether it is positive or negative (i.e., "I'd rather be screamed at than ignored"). Manipulation is used to keep the inattentive or inconsistent partner involved by alternating dramatic angry demands with needy dependence. When the partner is preoccupied and not paying attention, the anxious Codependent explodes in angry demands and behaviors that cannot be ignored. ~ Mary Crocker Cook
Attention Seeking quotes by Mary Crocker Cook
(...) the so-called democratization of reviews means the lowering of standards, and that subject knowledge, history and critical context are at risk of being lost in favour of people who only know how to write in attention-seeking soundbites. ~ Bernardine Evaristo
Attention Seeking quotes by Bernardine Evaristo
I had a nightmare about the Averys' sweet-tempered German shepherd, Ina. In the dream, as I was sitting on the floor in the Averys' living room, the dog walked up to me and began to insult me. She said I was a frivolous, cynical, attention-seeking "fag" whose entire life had been phony. I answered her frivolously and cynically and chucked her under the chin. She grinned at me with malice, as if to make clear that she understood me to the core. Then she sank her teeth into my arm. As I fell over backward, she went for my throat. ~ Jonathan Franzen
Attention Seeking quotes by Jonathan Franzen
When the attendant at Britz Rentals of Australia whipped around in our prepaid-in-full honeymoon car, my eyes grew wide and I knew we were in trouble. It was an SUV, yes, and a Toyota Land Cruiser at that--just as Marlboro Man had ordered. It was white and clean and very shiny. And painted in huge bright orange and royal blue lettering across the hood, the roof, all four doors, and the tailgate of the vehicle, were scrawled the enormous words: BRITZ RENTALS OF AUSTRALIA.
I could see Marlboro Man's jaw muscles flex as he beheld his worst nightmare playing out in front of his eyes. He could hardly even bear to gaze upon such an attention-grabbing abomination, let alone conceive of driving it all over an entire continent. Unfortunately, our last-minute attempts to trade to another vehicle proved to be futile; even if Britz hadn't been completely booked that week, it wouldn't have mattered anyway. Every single car in their fleet was smeared with the exact same orange and blue promotional graffiti.
Having no other transportational alternative, we set off on our drive, a black cloud of conspicuousness and, in Marlboro Man's case, dread following us everywhere we went. Being an attention-seeking middle child, I didn't really mind it much. But for Marlboro Man, this was more than his makeup was programmed to handle. As far as he was concerned, we were the Griswolds, and the Land Cruiser was our Family Truckster.
It was a pox on what might have been the perfect honeymoo ~ Ree Drummond
Attention Seeking quotes by Ree Drummond
The fact that 'attention seeking' is still considered a slur says much about the role of women in public life, on every scale. ~ Laurie Penny
Attention Seeking quotes by Laurie Penny
I've used the laws of the country to my advantage. ~ Donald Trump
Attention Seeking quotes by Donald Trump
It is not attention that the child is seeking, but love. ~ Sigmund Freud
Attention Seeking quotes by Sigmund Freud
deliberately vague, attention-seeking Facebook statuses are for thirteen-year-old girls. ~ Luke Smitherd
Attention Seeking quotes by Luke Smitherd
Blanket compassion will shift the distribution decisively towards the manipulative end of the spectrum, and may paradoxically decrease the compassion with which the genuinely despairing are treated: for they are apt to get lost in the great mass of pseudo-distress and manipulation, and often their conduct draws less attention precisely because it is less attention-seeking. ~ Anthony Daniels
Attention Seeking quotes by Anthony Daniels
It is my dream to create an art which is filled with balance, purity and calmness, freed from a subject matter that is disconcerting or too attention-seeking. In my paintings, I wish to create a spiritual remedy, similar to a comfortable armchair which provides rest from physical expectation for the spiritually working, the businessman as well as the artist. ~ Henri Matisse
Attention Seeking quotes by Henri Matisse
Mental health is an important topic, and should be discussed more frequently. It's not "attention seeking. ~ Brien Blatt
Attention Seeking quotes by Brien Blatt
I realised when I sang at family parties and Christmases I'd suddenly get everyone's attention, and, being the youngest of three, I thought what a brilliant attention-seeking ploy it was. ~ Kiki Dee
Attention Seeking quotes by Kiki Dee
Meditation is a very powerful time and you are very psychic. It is most important to not allow your attention, your mind, to wander. ~ Frederick Lenz
Attention Seeking quotes by Frederick Lenz
Pleasure is a by-product of doing something that is worth doing. Therefore, do not seek pleasure as such. Pleasure comes of seeking something else, and comes by the way. ~ Abbott Lawrence Lowell
Attention Seeking quotes by Abbott Lawrence Lowell
I had never wanted attention, and now I was
purposely inviting it. As I had told Dr Duverger, I had little vanity, and yet one recent
morning I realized that I was avoiding looking at my own reflection, because it was
disturbing. Did I wish to go through life like this? Yes, the scar was a horrible memento
of what I had done to my father, but now I questioned whether I needed it to be so
obvious. The actual weight was within me. I carried it as though it were a heavy
earthenware pot of water. I had to walk through my days carefully, so as not to let it spill
over. It was my own personal burden, not necessary to be shared with all who looked at
me. ~ Linda Holeman
Attention Seeking quotes by Linda Holeman
The true investor scarcely ever is forced to sell his shares, and at all other times he is free to disregard the current price quotation. He need pay attention to it and act upon it only to the extent that it suits his book, and no more.* Thus the investor who permits himself to be stampeded or unduly worried by unjustified market declines in his holdings is perversely transforming his basic advantage into a basic disadvantage. That man would be better off if his stocks had no market quotation at all, for he would then be spared the mental anguish caused him by other persons' mistakes of judgment. ~ Benjamin Graham
Attention Seeking quotes by Benjamin Graham
While our institutional mission and destiny are not in doubt, how we each participate and understand our individual responsibilities requires constant attention, effort, and vigilance. BYU will progress and prosper, but our individual success is not guaranteed without our own personal best efforts and worthily received blessings. ~ Cecil O. Samuelson
Attention Seeking quotes by Cecil O. Samuelson
I say to myself that the result of the unnatural effort to which I subject myself, writing, must be the respiration of this reader, the operation of reading turned into a natural process, the current that brings the sentences to graze the filter of her attention, to stop for a moment before being absorbed by the circuits of her mind and disappearing, transformed into her interior ghosts, into what in her is most personal and incommunicable. At ~ Italo Calvino
Attention Seeking quotes by Italo Calvino
Living in the present is the instant perception of beauty and the great delight in it without seeking pleasure from it. ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
Attention Seeking quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
Your call will become clear as as your mind is transformed by the reading of Scripture and the internal work of God's Spirit. The Lord never hides His will from us. In time, as you obey the call first to follow, your destiny will unfold before you. The difficulty will lie in keeping other concerns from diverting your attention. ~ Charles R. Swindoll
Attention Seeking quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
Adam's reply reflects his fear, as well as a note of deep sorrow. But there's no confession. Adam seems to have realized that it was pointless to try to plead innocence, but neither did he make a full confession. What he did was try to pass off the blame. He immediately pointed the finger at the one closest to him: Eve.
Also implicit in Adam's words (The Woman whom YOU gave) was an accusation against God. So quickly did sin corrupt Adam's mind that in his blame shifting, he did not shy away from making God Himself an acessary to the crime. This is so typical of sinners seeking to exonerate themselves that the New Testament epistle of James expressly instructs us, "Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed"James 1:13. Adam, however, was subtly trying to put at least some of the blame on God himself. ~ John F. MacArthur Jr.
Attention Seeking quotes by John F. MacArthur Jr.
It wasn't hard to find such data. For example, between 1948 and 1954, psychologists asked more than 10,000 adolescents whether they considered theymselves to be a very important person. At that point, 12 percent said yes. The same question was revisited in 1989, and this time it wasn't 12 percent who considered themselves very important, it was 80 percent of boys and 77 percent of girls. Psychologists have a thing called the narcissism test. They read people statements and ask if the statements apply to them. Statements such as "I like to be the center of attention ... I show off if I get the chance because I am extraordinary ... Somebody should write a biography about me." The median narcissism score has risen 30 percent in the last two decades. Ninety-three percent of young people score higher than the middle score just twenty years ago.4 The largest gains have been in the number of people who agree with the statements "I am an extraordinary person" and "I like to look at my body. ~ David Brooks
Attention Seeking quotes by David Brooks
Most of conflicts and tensions are due to language. Don't pay so much attention to the words. In love's country, language doesn't have its place. Love's mute. ~ Shams Tabrizi
Attention Seeking quotes by Shams Tabrizi
Ability does catches my attention, but its a politeness in the person that I remember. ~ Amit Kalantri
Attention Seeking quotes by Amit Kalantri
When she has an opinion, she makes it yours, and you'd do well to simply agree and pray she turns her attention elsewhere. ~ John Urbancik
Attention Seeking quotes by John Urbancik
Seeking survival, hostile, hidden from sight,
Deliciously flavoured - juicy, sweet bite,
Exploding senses preparing to ignite,
Inspiring to escape from the suffocating night. ~ Claudia Bakker
Attention Seeking quotes by Claudia Bakker
When out of the ordinary reports and studies come from individuals who seem to have their feet on the ground, more thoughtful people pay closer attention. To be open-minded means just that; to compare worldviews and philosophies without pre-judgment, to entertain singular and paradox phenomena, to efficaciously sift the gems of wisdom from common opinions in sacred texts and inspired writings, or even in newspapers or social media. What is true, and how do we know? - things to ponder. This all takes time and thought. The scales of discretion must weigh, over time, between hopeful thinking and prophecy, flights of fancy and common sense, a lucky guess and inspired revelation, and chance and destiny. This could keep one busy for a lifetime. As far as I'm concerned, this is the most important path for those who want to understand What This Is All About. ~ Stephen Poplin
Attention Seeking quotes by Stephen Poplin
Attention is psychic energy, and like physical energy, unless we allocate some part of it to the task at hand, no work gets done. ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Attention Seeking quotes by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
I think religion is a mistake - I'm exhausted by its self-righteousness. I think atheists should start screaming for attention like religious folks do. ~ Bjork
Attention Seeking quotes by Bjork
A question is not a supplication, an entreaty, nor a velleity for knowledge just put out in the air; it is already an order, a command. (Beggars, the destitute, pupils, factory workers, enlisted soldiers, prisoners, and patients have no right to question; they can only entreat.) A question commands a certain focus of attention, a selection of resources on hand, a certain type of language. It lays down a direction; it imposes a directive to think further down a certain track. ~ Alphonso Lingis
Attention Seeking quotes by Alphonso Lingis
Showing someone they were amazing and worth some attention and effort could be done in a moment, but the impact could last a lifetime. ~ Erin Nicholas
Attention Seeking quotes by Erin Nicholas
My guess? Romance novels. My guess? She started reading them early. My guess? She started them at a time where they made a huge impression on her and changed her perceptions. She isn't cocooned, she pays attention and she knows there are no men out there like the men in those books she reads so she prefers being with them than trying to find someone like them which, she thinks, is a fruitless endeavor. That fantasy is far better than any reality and, you know what? She's right. Men are a pain in the ass and a lot of them are dicks who cause heartbreak. And her, a girl like Faye? Well, she knows she's the kind of girl men like that will chew up and spit out. So she's smart and she's not going to go there. ~ Kristen Ashley
Attention Seeking quotes by Kristen Ashley
We are monumentally distracted by a pervasive technological culture that appears to have a life of its own, one that insists on our full attention, continually seducing us and pulling us away from the opportunity to experience directly the true meaning of our own lives. ~ Al Gore
Attention Seeking quotes by Al Gore
I spend a lot of my time trying to draw the attention of actors to the minute and subtle details of human behavior, which was the sort of thing I was looking at when I was a neurologist. ~ Jonathan Miller
Attention Seeking quotes by Jonathan Miller
You are asking yourself, as all of us must: 'Who am I?' ... 'Where am I?' ... 'Whence do I go?' The process of enlightenment is usually slow. But, in the end, our seeking always brings a finding. These great mysteries are, after all, enshrined in complete simplicity. ~ Bill W.
Attention Seeking quotes by Bill W.
Women wrap men with their second attention. ~ Frederick Lenz
Attention Seeking quotes by Frederick Lenz
I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT when this book comes out, Scientologists will scream about religious intolerance, say that I am a liar, that I was kicked out of the church, and call Troublemaker the work of a hateful bigot or a self-absorbed person with an "insatiable craving for attention." (That last part might not be totally untrue; I am an actress, after all.) What they will likely not do, however, is actually read this book, because that would be going against one of the basic tenets of Scientology. A member should not read or watch anything generated by someone whom the church ~ Leah Remini
Attention Seeking quotes by Leah Remini
The ego is nothing other than the focus of conscious attention. ~ Alan Watts
Attention Seeking quotes by Alan Watts
We're living at a time when attention is the new currency. Those who insert themselves into as many channels as possible look set to capture the most value. ~ Pete Cashmore
Attention Seeking quotes by Pete Cashmore
When you live your life seeking the opinion and approval of others, you become a slave in your mind and soul to others. This is the worst form of slavery. ~ Bien Sufficient
Attention Seeking quotes by Bien Sufficient
Why does evolution matter? There is so much about the evolution of life, the development of life on Earth that should rivet the attention of everyone to understand where we've come from and where we might be going. We need to understand the world around us if we are to succeed as a species on the planet. ~ Sylvia Earle
Attention Seeking quotes by Sylvia Earle
Buttercup, miserable even with Prim's constant attention, huddles in the cube and exhales cat breath in my face. ~ Suzanne Collins
Attention Seeking quotes by Suzanne Collins
We couldn't say her name often enough. It tickled us to mention her name to strangers and watch the expressions on their faces.
Girls liked her. Boys liked her. And
most remarkable
the attention came from all kinds of kids: shy mice and princesses, jocks and eggheads. ~ Jerry Spinelli
Attention Seeking quotes by Jerry Spinelli
It's funny, I've decided 'Hallelujah' is a kind of Rorschach test for people, because everyone has a different reaction to it and to what I'm doing. I just sang it, and whatever came out was just natural and spontaneous and maybe that's the best thing, because there's a kind of enigma, both in the meaning of the words and the way Leonard Cohen said them, that catches people's attention. ~ Renee Fleming
Attention Seeking quotes by Renee Fleming
l. She
dared one more quick look at the tat, but her attention soon
moved to the size of the muscle on which it had been inked.
Definitely leer-worthy. When he passed beside her on his
way toward the back of the room, she caught a whiff of sexy
aftershave and stifled a groan. Millicent was going to be all
a-twitter over him. Tara just knew it.
When she heard someone behind her whisper, "He's
sooo hot," she couldn't help but silently agree.
But it was another girl's answer that made her curious.
"Yeah . . . but no one in her right mind would mess with
him."
"Bethany did."
"But not for long."
"Yeah. Right."
Ahah. Bethany must be the girl glaring at him beside the
teacher's desk. ~ Sharon Sala
Attention Seeking quotes by Sharon Sala
In a world where we spend ever more of our time staring at screens, blocking out even our most intimate and proximate human contacts, public institutions with open-door policies compel us to pay close attention to people nearby. After all, places like libraries are saturated with strangers, people whose bodies are different, whose styles are different, who make different sounds, speak different languages, give off different, sometimes noxious, smells. Spending time in public social infrastructures requires learning to deal with these differences in a civil manner. ~ Eric Klinenberg
Attention Seeking quotes by Eric Klinenberg
I was the eldest child, so I know how it feels to have attention shared with a sibling. ~ Suriya
Attention Seeking quotes by Suriya
Of course, the slightest little mistake on the wire will deprive me of my life, so in that sense, yes, it is a dangerous profession. You have to pay attention; if not, you will lose your life. ~ Philippe Petit
Attention Seeking quotes by Philippe Petit
It must be remembered that no art lives by nature, only by acts of voluntary attention on the part of human individuals. When these are not made it ceases to exist. ~ C.S. Lewis
Attention Seeking quotes by C.S. Lewis
The diversity lottery program is a proven method of offering a path to legal permanent status for residents of African nations and other underrepresented regions seeking a better life here in the United States. ~ Cedric Richmond
