We picked the Red Sox because they lose. If you root for something that loses for 86 years, you’re a pretty good fan. You don’t have to win everything to be a fan of something.

I would say things like ‘I am the greatest! I’m pretty! If you talk jive, you’ll drop in five! I float like a butterfly, sting like a bee! I’m pretty!’ When white people heard me...

When I was in college, all the pretty women were in the theatre, so I auditioned for a play.

Mobile devices are kind of at the opposite end of PCs, in that PCs are pretty open and you can do a fair amount with them, but many mobile devices aren’t.

If I’m working as an engineer for another band, the responsibility for brilliance pretty much rests on their shoulders. I think I’m pretty good, but I’m not good enough to turn a trout into a...

I deliberately returned slowly to training after Raphael was born and everything, apart from being bitten by a dog whilst out training in Monaco at the beginning of the year, has gone pretty well.

There is a huge difference between writing a book, which is a private activity I engage in with myself, and wanting to engage in overly intimate personal conversations with strangers, which I pretty much never...

David Lynch was very good, very patient with us, and the reaction in the United States seems pretty good.

And George Brett. I think most people know that George and I have become pretty good friends over the years.

Yeah, you know, within the context of TV families, these are pretty unsavory characters.

My style is definitely schizophrenic; it does change from day to day a lot. It depends on my mood: sometimes I’ll be going through a girly, childlike stage and wear a pretty lace dress with...

I did have a child, and I was reading a lot of picture books to her, but at the same time writing a children’s book was something that I’d been wanting to do for many...

Some people say I’m not a very pretty woman, but I’m a very beautiful woman inside.

I’m real bent on dialogue. I’m just a little bit crazy and when you put that along with 20 years as a criminal lawyer, it’s pretty easy to come up with some interesting plots.

Not to be mean about it, but some great rock and rollers, like Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry, are pretty one-dimensional.

People are prettiest when they smile with joy.

I didn’t like the idea of being foolish, but I learned pretty soon that it was essential to fail and be foolish.

I’m a pretty open book.

You go through stages in your career that you feel very good about yourself. Then you feel awful, like, ‘Why didn’t I choose something else?’ But overall I’m pretty satisfied that I made the right...

Growing up in Texas, you were either pretty or smart. Smart didn’t get you very far, because there weren’t too many job opportunities for women. I wondered why you couldn’t be both.

Runners, by nature, are intentional people and normally pretty light on our feet.

I am pretty controlled I have to say.

We all get old, but I always say the skinny, pretty girls will be screwed.

Eye-popping tales of growing income inequality are hardly new. By now, nearly every American must be painfully aware of the widening pay gap between top executives and shop floor laborers; between ‘Master of the Universe’...

Let’s face it, the Obama administration was handed a pretty poor deal from the previous administration.

I’ll bet you a six-pack of Coors that pretty soon, people will be discovering Cretaceous parasites inside Cretaceous bones. The possibility of looking into epidemiology and pathology is pretty cool.

I don’t know much about climate change. But I’m pretty sure we better figure out what to do to lessen its impact – at least its health impact – and that’s not going to happen...

I just have a respect for my audience. That seems to be pretty logical.

That, we encourage, and I think we’re doing a pretty good job with the website and also the DVD, like the first season came out and the second season’s being prepared now.

Those shows I did with Queen were pretty surreal. I was really excited and super-flattered, but intimidated at the same time.

I am pretty sarcastic and pretty dry.

The mind is pretty powerful. In skating, you learn to click into that zone and focus not necessarily on what you’re doing but if you’re doing it well.

I grew up Southern Baptist, so my experience was fairly conservative. Not archly so, but I think Memphis – when you get to certain parts of Memphis – are more liberal for sure. But I...

Women wish to be loved without a why or a wherefore; not because they are pretty, or good, or well-bred, or graceful, or intelligent, but because they are themselves.

Markets are saying pretty much what I’m saying too: that Greece is doing what it can, but that Greece is not going to be able to carry the weight of all of Europe and the...

The speech of God’s beautiful woman is a fountain of life to those around her.

Not pretty exactly, but gleaming with the loveliness of youth.

I’ve heard some tunes in recent years that were pretty close to that same idea. The idea was you turn on the radio and you want to hear some music and up comes a commercial.

I like to think that the Grand Prix helped Long Beach to pretty much change its image.

I did everything pretty cliche as an actor in New York. I read the trades, I sent out ‘head shots.’

I just went off for two months traveling around Europe on a motorcycle and pretty much turned my phone off. I did 5,000 miles with my dad. We went through Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia,...

You’re the prettiest thing I’ve seen fall from the sky today.

So it’s back once more, back up the slope.Why do they always ruin my ropewith their cuts?I felt so ready the other day,Had a real foretaste of eternityIn my guts.Spoonfeeding me yet another sipfrom life’s...

At this point, American workers are pretty respectful of the bosses they loathe.

I think the audience is pretty intelligent.

I think I have an inner confidence that my tastes are pretty simple, that what I find funny finds a wide audience. I’m not particularly intellectual or clever or minority-focused in my creative instincts. And...

I was embarrassingly well-versed in Marvel lore, so it was pretty easy to slip into that world. But really, already, by the time I’d started writing superhero comics, my dream was really to be writing...

When I’m directing, I’m pretty much not writing, but when I’m not directing I am writing a lot. It’s strange: people have asked me what my schedule is and what is my process like, and...

I understand that Detroit was a pretty rough place to grow up in the ’70s and ’80s.

I’ve gotten some pretty nice awards. I’m having trouble finding places to put them all.
