I think race has been a burden for black Americans. Being Muslim has also been a challenge because so many people do not understand Islam.

Andre Agassi, American Athlete (1970-  )
I've been motivated by overcoming challenge and overcoming the hurdles and obstacles that face me. There still is plenty out there to get motivated by.

The biggest challenge was that we had to shoot so quickly and with such a limited budget.
Debbie Allen, American Actress (1950-  )
The challenge to me as a director was for the audience to see the film as going on in a straight line, so that they did not sense all of these break-ups. I did not want a film to be a collage of all these images.
Pedro Almodovar, Spanish Director (1949-  )
The opera is like a husband with a foreign title - expensive to support, hard to understand and therefore a supreme social challenge.

The biggest challenge in New Orleans has been to find workers who can climb a ladder after lunch.
Harry Anderson, American Actor (1952-  )

Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938-  )
Well I think after leaving prison, and having written three diaries about life in prison, it became a sort of a new challenge to write another novel, to write a new novel.
Jeffrey Archer, English Politician (1940-  )
I've written what and when I want to. It's been about expressing myself. But with the degree, I had to learn to do everything in a very specific, disciplined way. I am very disciplined, but this demanded a totally different kind of discipline. A real challenge.
Joan Armatrading, St. Kittsian Musician (1950-  )

Gerard Arpey, American Businessman (1958-  )
Planet of the Apes was a gigantic challenge, making the clothes work so people could do stunts and action in the clothes. I really learned a lot about that in that movie.
Colleen Atwood, American Designer
Now, China, India have set goals. We're going to be able to review what they're doing. We're going to be able to challenge them if they don't meet those goals.

There are millions of jobs to be had there, more energy security, so we're going to pursue this.
David Axelrod, American Public Servant (1955-  )
Life is a song - sing it. Life is a game - play it. Life is a challenge - meet it. Life is a dream - realize it. Life is a sacrifice - offer it. Life is love - enjoy it.
Sai Baba, Indian Leader
