I always get quite close to my script because I work quite hard on them.

I’m not sure I’m quite ready to have someone be a prospector of jobs for me, because I believe there’s some kind of destiny involved with meeting people… some things are just meant to happen.

In the beginning, I thought it would be really glamorous, working in fashion. But it’s actually quite hard. You don’t even know half the stuff that goes on backstage.

I’ve been doing a lot of music for films and television for quite a few years.

When I was teeny tiny, I definitely had a voice that didn’t quite match the way I looked at five.

Parliament must not be told a direct untruth, but it’s quite possible to allow them to mislead themselves.

I got into reading a lot of noir and a lot of thrillers as well, and I really admired the plotting about those and the way that they can surprise you. And obviously to surprise...

and then what happened?- I asked him, but I had no desire to know. Whatever it was, it has to be ugly.

My work is made on lines similar to those of a film production. A lot of my work is kind of bureaucratic, endlessly phoning up people, trying to find the cameraman and the lighting man,...

Scripture is the thing I like to share with people more than anything. My prayer reality is quite kooky. I have this very unique dialogue with the Lord. I utilize my own sort of street...

It was not pre-arranged. It just happened that the driver made a demand and I just didn’t feel like obeying his demand. I was quite tired after spending a full day working.

Liberal capitalism is not at all the Good of humanity. Quite the contrary; it is the vehicle of savage, destructive nihilism.

Of course I want to take the last shot, let’s be quite frank: I’ve been doing for nine years already, and I’ve made a ton of them.

I find going back through things sometimes exhilarating because I find things I didn’t know I had, and sometimes it’s very off putting because there are things I never quite finished, and there’s nothing at...

So I’m not really quite sure what Landis’ plans were to make another one. The American Werewolf in Paris was a completely separate story.

If I go to a party I don’t feel like I have to be in the centre. But I do find myself quite often being placed in that position. Even when I was younger at...

What’s comfortable to me is familiarity. Comfort has nothing to do with the size of the garment. I do find something quite comfortable and charming in a too-narrow shoulder, a sleeve that’s too short or...

I’m not quite as anonymous as I was.

I’m a much healthier eater and I’ve lost quite a bit of weight over the years.

European citizens expect that there will be also a fair system inside the European Union and in the euro, and that’s why we have to have quite hard discipline.

The person who is brutally honest enjoys the brutality quite as much as the honesty. Possibly more.

Currently a level of unemployment of 7 percent or more seems to be required to keep inflation from accelerating, a level quite unacceptable as a permanent situation.

My body doesn’t have any rhythm, you know. I’ve got quite good rhythm when I’m singing but my feet are very much two left feet.

In the early days, I had very little idea about arrangements, and I wrote songs a little flat, as it were, just on an acoustic guitar. They didn’t really have quite enough nuance.

Previous governments, particularly the one before I took over, mismanaged the economy quite badly.

I’m quite dyslexic in school. My dad let me figure out what I wanted to do on my own. My parents never really lecture me.

My first app was released in July or August of 2008. It was a ‘fingermill’ – a treadmill for your fingers. My level of programming was quite basic to begin with, so it was more...

I’d got over playing a character. People accepted who I was, and if I was incompetent and useless, they felt quite endeared to me.

Look for when the environment is changing – the big shift now is mobile Internet. It’s really happening big-time. The way you interact with services on a smart phone compared to the Web is quite...

I’m really tall, and I used slouch and think it was really uncool to stand up straight – now I wish I hadn’t been quite so dumb!

The factors that have been holding farmers back are similar to those that threaten other types of growth in Africa. Infrastructure and transport are in many cases quite poor, resulting in the losses of huge...

I’m quite handy with a screwdriver. I like making and fixing things.

We’re all quite vulnerable human beings really.

The experiments show quite clearly that, as you resist more and more temptation, you’re actually more and more likely to fail.

Quite often in life, when a tragic event arrives it becomes a springboard for mirroring all other things in one’s life that one hasn’t come to terms with.

I’m quite confident, but I don’t fancy myself. I don’t really care about how I look.

I actually get quite sad when I smell bacon.

I’ve learnt to accept what has happened to my voice, I suppose, but I do wish it didn’t sound quite so rough.

I would quite like to create a fragrance for men though – something that I like.

I came to Los Angeles and did auditions for television. I made a terrible mess of most of them and I was quite intimidated. I felt very embarrassed and went back to London. I got...

People are fretful about lifestyle retailing because the idea that anyone’s immortal soul and deepest longings can be quite so readily anticipated and consolidated with several hundred thousand other like-minded types is worrying.

Sexuality, desirability has nothing to do with body type. It has to do with how you feel from within. I was at my fattest best in ‘The Dirty Picture,’ and I was called the most...

So as an amateur Olympic competitor I loved criticism, because it made me better. But now as a professional I don’t really know how to channel it or where to take it, so I don’t...

I came into the Agency with a set of ideas and attitudes that were quite typical of people coming into the Agency at that time. You could call it liberal anti-communism.

Nothing focuses your mind quite like flying a jet. That’s one reason NASA requires that astronauts fly T-38s: it forces us to concentrate and prioritize in some of the same ways we need to in...

Chet Faker’s a reference to the late Chet Baker. I’m a big fan of his vocal style; it’s quite fragile and soft, and that was a style I wanted to take on.

I, as prime minister, never went to Washington. Certainly never went to a presidential ranch. I hate to say this, but I wasn’t going to be the pilot fish to the shark, whereas Australia quite...

But if I have a lot of imagination, I could tell myself whatever I wanted, you know. I handle myself quite well. I’m kind of fascist with myself, you know. There’s no discussion. There is...

I’m quite grateful to the BBC. They helped me back onto the touring circuit.

There’s been quite a clear upswing in nationalist sentiments. Everyone is talking about it, in Turkey as well.
