Time Me Trying Quotes

This collection holds 9 time me trying quotes, drawn from writers, leaders, artists and thinkers across the QuoteForever archive. The most quoted voices here are Mickey Mantle, Laura Marling and Sheamus.

They are ordered so that each author has a say before anyone repeats, which means the first page gives you the range of the topic rather than one writer's back catalogue.

Use the grid and list views to change how much of each quote you see, follow an author's name to read everything else they said, or open a quote on its own page to copy it, share it, or turn it into a picture quote.

Mickey Mantle / Baseball Player

Somebody once asked me if I ever went up to the plate trying to hit a home run. I said, 'Sure, every time.'

Laura Marling / Musician

It took a lot of time and practice for me to realise that there's no point trying to be something you're not.

Sheamus / Professional Wrestler

My ma is from County Clare, so she's a Munster fan, so she keeps sending me Munster jerseys all the time, trying to convert me to Munster.

Doug Baldwin

I want to know what coverage it is every single time. I want to line up and be able to read what the defense is trying to do to me so I can get open.

Devin Townsend / Musician

The reason why everything I do is so different is not because I'm trying to be provocative; it's simply a reflection of whatever was happening to me at the time I wrote that particular record.

William Moseley / Actor

For me, my taste isn't limited to magical films. Whatever I read and I like, I go up for, and a lot of the time it's an American accent which can be quite trying, but I'm working on it as much as I can.

Gary Woodland

For years, I felt like I was just whacking at the ball, trying to see how far I could hit it, especially with the driver. Whatever the coach I was working with at the time told me to do, I would just go along with it.

Travis Beacham / Screenwriter

I think, television and comics, what's appealing to me as a writer about both of those mediums is that they allow you to sort of let the story unfold in its own time as opposed to trying to compress it into a two-hour discreet unit of narrative.

Charles Soule / Comic Book Author

I actually started trying to be a professional writer with novels, and I wrote two that exist and are around... kind of. But they never really went anyplace in particular. I still like them both. What it showed me was that you can spend years on a novel, and then it could just be, like, OK, you spent that time and that's that.
