The thing about movies these days is that the commerce end of it is so inflated and financiers are just expecting this enormous return on their investment.
Alex Winter
Narcissists - people with an inflated self-concept and a strong sense of uniqueness and superiority - seek attention and affirmation on Facebook.
Amy Morin
I would argue that television and particularly the BBC were instrumental in puffing up the Royal Family to a level where they were inflated out of all, all proportion to their relevance on the national scene.
Andrew Morton
I find it funny how at British festivals there are such inflated egos. It's rare that I even talk to anyone at a lot of them.
Ben Howard
In order for Obamacare's cost structure to work, millions of Americans must sign up to pay inflated prices; that would help pay for the subsidies to cover insurance company costs on those with pre-existing conditions.
Ben Shapiro
The only players I hurt with my words are the ones who have an inflated opinion of their ability. I can't worry about that.
Bill Parcells
Common sense solutions to lowering your gasoline bills can go far. Carpooling, taking fewer or shorter road trips, and ensuring that your tires are fully inflated can all help stop the pinch at the pump.
Bob Ney
I know what it's like to have an inflated libido.
Daniel Cudmore
But if you look at WorldCom, which is the biggest failure to date, they grew dramatically, they were buying companies that were bigger than they were and they were doing it off inflated stock.
Don Nickles
Until the province is willing to look internally at their inflated budget, to engage the private sector, to exhaust every other available avenue, we can't justify a series of costly new taxes on residents who are already telling us that they just can't afford it.
Doug Ford
The term 'cyberutopian' tends to be used only in the context of critique. Calling someone a cyberutopian implies that he or she has an unrealistic and naively overinflated sense of what technology makes possible and an insufficient understanding of the forces that govern societies.
Ethan Zuckerman
The ego being shattered is not what frightens me - that can be useful for writing - but the ego being inflated is sort of like it dying of gout.
Garth Risk Hallberg
Inflated descriptions by the pen or exaggerated illustrations by the pencil.
Grace Darling
I would say Silicon Valley and New York have inflated salaries.
Harper Reed
You know the green grifters have no argument when they start raising the 'no blood for oil' cry on the blogs. Excuse me, if Obama's make-sure-your-tires-are-properly-inflated administration would simply allow more energy production here in the U.S., that wouldn't be a problem very long, would it?
Howie Carr
In the 2010s, it is not the price of bread that is falsely and unnecessarily inflated by obstinate politicians but that of energy. There are cheap sources of energy either available or possible, but there is a reluctance to use them.
Jacob Rees-Mogg
The bicycle might just be the greatest of all inventions. It empowers the human machine, and with no input beyond perhaps a trendy isotonic health drink in a brightly coloured bottle at an inflated price.
James May
People who take more than their share usually feel an inflated sense of entitlement.
Jeanne Phillips
I am in favor of high wages and agree that the higher the wages, the stronger the evidence of prosperity, provided (and that is the important point) they are so naturally, by the effectiveness of industry, and not in consequence of an inflated currency or any artificial regulation.
John C. Calhoun
I think my biggest problem was, as a celebrity on a TV show, you get an inflated ego and you think you're the center of the universe.
Kirk Cameron
Because Scientologists view children as spiritual beings, you're not treated as a kid, so you're given a lot of responsibility. Your ego becomes extremely inflated.
I had a period when I was sixteen where I started to get a big head. I was going through puberty, and I was nominated for an Academy Award. My head got inflated. My friends were the real ones who said, 'You're acting different.' But the truth is that I don't need that, because I don't get out of hand.
To measure prices by a currency that is called by the same names as gold, but that is really inferior in value to gold, and then - because those prices are nominally higher than gold prices - to say that they are inflated, relatively to gold, is a perfect absurdity.
I think that there are some in the media who have an overinflated view of their mission.
Rather than giving people an inflated view of themselves, we need to give them concrete reasons to feel good about themselves.
The goal of re-importation is to provide American consumers with access to drugs at the world market price - not the inflated price now paid only by Americans.
The Lovemongers came together because we felt kind of overinflated by the end of the Eighties.
The inflated imitations of gold and silver, which after the rapture are thrown into the fire, all is exhausted and dissipated by the debt. All scrips and bonds are wiped out. At the fourth pillar dedicated to Saturn, split by earthquake and flood: vexing everyone, an urn of gold is found and then restored.
There are no consequences for Snowden breaking the law in Snowden's World. It's where his massively inflated ego dictates the rules and determines which he will follow.
I will say this: I've always sort of had maybe an inflated sense of my ability to sequence songs in a narrative flow.
Certainly, with my giant overinflated ego, playing in the CFL would have been like failing.
Have transfer prices in England surprised me? No. Are the prices over-inflated? Yes. But there is no surprise now.
Hyper-parenting has many pitfalls. Overprotected and overpraised children may develop an inflated sense of entitlement.
If the Fed is omniscient, why didn't they pull back on the excess money supply that inflated the massive housing bubble that popped so disastrously back in 2008?
I don't read reviews. I refuse to have my ego inflated or deflated by someone I don't know.
Every actor, male or female, is paid what he or she is worth. There is no inflated sum or underpaying in the industry.
A man should have duties outside of himself; without them, he is a mere balloon, inflated with thin egotism and drifting nowhere.
I have no inflated ideas about success anyway.
There was, of course, a global financial crisis. But our Labour predecessors left Britain exceptionally vulnerable and damaged: more personal debt than any other major economy; a dangerously inflated property bubble; and a bloated banking sector behaving as masters, not the servants of the people.
