Do not wait; the time will never be "just right." Start where you stand & work with whatever tools you may have.
My father...made us shop at Goodwill. I found things to wear and got Best Dressed (in the yearbook) two years in a row. I had lemons, so I made lemonade.
Any tool is a weapon if you hold it right.
One of the most important things a person can learn to do is to make something out of whatever he or she happens to have at the moment.
Any problem can be solved using the materials in the room.
There's nothing worse than trying to patch something or make do. If there wasn't something there in the beginning, it won't be there at the end.
Work whatever tools you may have at your command and better tools will be found as you go along.
We just said, 'Okay, you're in the movie. Bring what you would bring for a three-day weekend and I hope you like the way you look in it because once you're on camera, that's your wardrobe.' But it worked; it worked and we were very surprised.
Because we had no money when I was growing up, when I started dancing, I wasn't allowed to be frivolous - my mum made me go to every lesson because she was paying for it.
What you have to do is work around whatever the 'circumstances are at a club.
If you can't do what you want, do what you can.
So I turned these sort of deficiencies into a, a workable thing if you understand what I mean.
When my mother had to get dinner for 8 she'd just make enough for 16 and only serve half.
In the past, when I lacked designer duds, I simply relied on my hot glue gun.
You didn’t get the quest you wanted, you got the one you could do.
First you find out what you have, Dad would say. Then you figure out how to make it work for what you need, 'cause you don't get what you want. You get just what you have and no more.
But out of limitations comes creativity.
A man can live on his wits and his balls for only so long.
