What I hope to do is create a play that investigates the ongoing violence toward women and children in the world, and searches for some kind of answer to the question, 'What Can We Do?'
— Marsha Norman
I hope that we always have diversity, that we have equality and representation every step of the way.
— Marsai Martin
I hope to win something here, with Everton.
— Marouane Fellaini
I like to say that the greatest handicap of deafness does not lie in the ear, it lies in the mind. I hope that through my example, such as my role on 'The West Wing,' I can help change attitudes on deafness and prove we can really do everything... except hear.
— Marlee Matlin
I like to work in the morning, usually from 7-12, and still always hope to do more later. At the end of a book, I just work most of the time, but in general, I like to be working nice and early.
— Markus Zusak
A superhero is someone who, at some point or in some way, inspires hope or is the enemy of cynicism.
— Mark Waid
Lord save us all from old age and broken health and a hope tree that has lost the faculty of putting out blossoms.
— Mark Twain
I don't think I've got an innate sense of style, but I guess I'm influenced by those I love and admire. You hope that you combine those influences in a way that becomes your own.
— Mark Ronson
I love writing novels, even if only a few thousand people read them. Here's my soul; I hope it appeals to your soul.
— Mark O'Donnell
The U.S. is supposed to be a beacon of hope to the world - the shining city on a hill where freedom is available to all and individual liberties are protected.
— Mark Meadows
The American system is a beautiful and durable thing, but flawed. I would like to think that this decadence is not sustainable, whether in the eyes of the electorate or the eyes of whatever the local economy is built on; that would bring me hope.
— Mark Leibovich
I found Jerusalem to be a tourist trap. I hope that I don't offend anyone by saying that.
— Mark Kozelek
Of course, you would have to be insane to hope your child grows up to be a playwright or poet. Given the odds, you would have to be quite cavalier about your children's future.
— Mark Helprin
At Chicago Hope they have a technical staff that works real hard to make that O.R. as realistic as possible.
— Mark Harmon
Despair - or as I like to call it, des-pair - means feeling unpaired in a world in which it feels like everyone else is paired with a good job, a happy marriage, loving family, caring, and hope - and you're not.
— Mark Goulston
I think you can safely say that the mystery in 'Twin Peaks' as we started to explore more is very large, there are many aspects to it and the hope is that people will find things that they are interested in in all sorts of things related to the larger mystery.
— Mark Frost
Whether you do stand-up comedy or write a story, you have a duty to deliver. As a comedian, you walk out on stage, and you have a minute to hook them, or they'll start booing. As a writer, it's very similar. A reader doesn't have time to say, 'I'll give him 50 pages, as it's not very good yet, but I hope it'll get better.'
— Mark Billingham
My hope is that we're going to be more strategic and focused as we look for a way to address the long-term deficit and debt issues that are affecting this nation.
— Marsha Blackburn
I hope to see the bringing together of all the best educated people of the earth into a worldwide Congress of Scientists.
— Marquis de Condorcet
You learn timing on the road. You learn structure and how to read an audience. You learn so much about the business of laughter that you can't learn on a set, because it's all on you. Sometimes you bomb, and you know not to tell that joke again... You just hope people find the humor in the awkwardness.
— Marlon Wayans
I hope I inspire people who hear. Hearing people have the ability to remove barriers that prevent deaf people from achieving their dreams.
I hope that Facebook and other Internet technologies were able to help people, just like we hope that we help them communicate and organize and do whatever they want to every single day, but I don't pretend that if Facebook didn't exist, that this wouldn't even be possible. Of course, it would have.
— Mark Zuckerberg
I don't write stories about despair. I write stories about hope.
I hope that by just being a competent member and expressing informed views on issues that aren't related to issues of LGBT equality, Republicans see me as a general asset.
— Mark Takano
We can't wait until elections to fight for what we care about. We can't hope for a benevolent leader who may choose to listen to us. We need a network that lets the best ideas and leaders rise to the top through an open, inclusive democratic process.
— Mark Pincus
I'm not God, don't intend to be and hope I never have that much power.
— Mark Neumann
I sort of missed one big thing, to touch first base. I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history.
— Mark McGwire
Everyone likes a bit of variety. I'm sure none of my readers only want to read about anti-heroes or villainous protagonists any more than they only want to read about square-jawed heroes doing the right thing. I just write characters than entertain me and hope they'll be ones that other people want to read about, too.
— Mark Lawrence
I don't know whether your heart ever necessarily changes, but time changes the way that you perceive the world. And you just hope it gives you more empathy and all those other things.
— Mark Knopfler
When I was in acting classes early on, there were so many people in these classes who were doing great work, and you'd just look at them and say, 'Wow, I hope to someday be like that.' And yet these people never worked. You never saw them.
You make a film you feel is as real as possible and hope people react as though it were real.
— Mark Haddon
I hope that they enjoy the movie. Don't be critical. Don't expect to get the same feelings you got when you watched the series when you were 10 years old. Let your kids see it and experience it on their own.
— Mark Goddard
Yes, I could win the Olympics. I hope to, and that's what I'm training for. But it's really going to come down to me racing on that day... Just being really calm and mature about what the reality is - that's my strategy.
— Mark de Jonge
All you can hope for when you get a book adapted for TV is that you get a good actor and not some muppet off 'EastEnders.'
I hope to bring fresh ideas to the big screen.
I hope I have a long future here with Everton. It is a daily task to improve.
I think in my case, I had no choice but to have a good sense of humor. I grew up with my dad, Danny Thomas, and George Burns and Bob Hope and Milton Berle and Sid Caesar and all those guys were at our house all the time and telling jokes and making each other laugh.
— Marlo Thomas
I hope that through my example, such as my role on 'The West Wing,' I can help change attitudes on deafness and prove we can really do everything... except hear.
I hope my daughter, and one day my granddaughters, will be at Dodgers Opening Day.
— Mark Walter
I'm not an expert on the Middle East or terrorism or the use of military force or politics. It's all I can do to know a little bit about how to help people raise their kids and what to do when they get sick. When a war happens, I just hope it gets over with quickly so that how we take care of children becomes more important again.
— Mark Vonnegut
I've always looked at famous actors and hope that once they get a part that they have success in, they would reprise it every few years in the way a pop singer will reprise their hits. Like Bob Dylan singing 'Blowin' in the Wind' until he's fed up with it, finding different ways of doing it.
— Mark Rylance
I hope maybe 'The Returned,' in some small way, can contribute to the argument of the poignancy of human life and make people not take for granted things.
— Mark Pellegrino
Congressional Republicans have come to understand that their last, best hope of blocking bad policy from the White House is through spending bills.
I really do hope that the people will like 14:59. The critics seem to like it. We got a lot of good reviews.
— Mark McGrath
I hope I'm learning until I'm dead.
— Mark Lanegan
All I can hope to do is instill great morality in my son and trust him along the way. The music he listens to or how he chooses to wear his hair doesn't define his moral compass, and if he wants to listen to country music and wear a cowboy hat too, that's fine.
— Mark Hoppus
I'm thankful to get the opportunity to direct. I hope I don't mess it up.
I don't remember deciding to become a writer. You decide to become a dentist or a postman. For me, writing is like being gay. You finally admit that this is who you are, you come out and hope that no one runs away.
A working detective has no hope of understanding what even experts who devote their lives to the study of criminal psychology can't figure out.
— Mark Fuhrman
I hope gay marriage will be legal in every state.
— Mark Consuelos
