We set out with nothing but music as our dream, but we didn't know where we were going, whether we were going uphill or downhill, or as we took a break after becoming tired, whether around the corner there was a paradise or a pitfall. That's how we started.

J-Hope

It's an uphill battle to help our kids learn to make good food decisions - particularly when they are too often presented with an a la carte lunch room choice of french fries or yogurt.

Amy Klobuchar

The road to freedom must be uphill, even if it is arduous and frustrating.

Andrew Goodman

For women, no matter what career, what path you choose, it's still an uphill battle to work your way up to these top leadership positions. And you're much more closely scrutinized for everything - for things that men are not.

Anna Gunn

All ballplayers should quit when it starts to feel as if all the baselines run uphill.

Babe Ruth

Our work for human dignity is often lonely, and almost always an uphill climb. At times, our efforts are misunderstood, and we are mistaken for the enemy. There has been a clear erosion of respect for U.N. blue and our impartiality.

Ban Ki-moon

Nothing in my life has really ever been easy. I've always been someone who did it uphill.

Becky Hammon

It's a real uphill challenge to battle the white-guyness.

Billy Gibbons

It's always an uphill battle. You know, I'm a Republican in Maryland. This is the bluest of the blue.

Bob Ehrlich

With my history, unfortunately, with my family suffering through gun violence, it's something that I feel passionately about, that even though the odds are certainly always uphill, that doesn't mean that I will stop fighting to try to change that.

Carolyn McCarthy

There's no limit to what you can accomplish, but there's always someone one step ahead of you, so it's a constant uphill battle.

Catherine Mary Stewart

It is an uphill fight to persuade workers that the minimum wage is not in their interest.

Charlie Sykes

It's a fun uphill struggle, making health insurance as a comedian, actor, and author. But it's hard to explain to people how I make a living. In New York, most people know enough creative types that I make some sense. But when I'm talking to someone like my suburban cousins or my mom's friends, it doesn't always go smoothly.

Chris Gethard

I always knew that it was going to be an uphill climb to replace Letterman from complete obscurity with no experience, but I think I had to go through it to know exactly what a titanic effort that was going to be.

Conan O'Brien

But I love bowling in India, the grounds are quite flat whereas in South Africa you feel you are running uphill.

Dale Steyn

Rebuilding the civic fabric of Central American countries is the only long-term solution to stemming the flow of illegal migration, and without Mexico as a willing partner, the U.S. will continue to fight an impossibly uphill battle.

Dan Crenshaw

All filmmakers want the option to make another film, to have it not always be such an uphill battle - for it to be our life, our working life.

Debra Granik

Reverse innovation is an innovation that is first adopted in developing markets and flows uphill to mature markets. This concept directs forward-looking companies to look beyond industrialized nations to draw new ideas, products, and processes from emerging economies.

Dinesh Paliwal

I have felt for the last 10 years I have had this battle; I've been fighting so hard to have an education. It's been this uphill struggle. I was Warner Bros' pain in the butt. I was their scheduling conflict. I was the one who made life difficult.

Emma Watson

Contours on the second half of a long putt have more impact on how the ball rolls because it's going slower. Adjust your speed if that last part is playing uphill or downhill. Don't get fooled by an early slope or break.

Ernie Els

The Divas division is always an uphill battle. We have a group of really hungry and talented women. It's just a matter of being able to showcase all of us in the right light and with the right stories.
