There’s an old hymn called ‘How Can I Keep from Singing?’ That’s what writing feels like to me. I have to write. It’s intrinsic to who I am. So it was a natural choice for...

Even though it doesn’t look like it, I run. On a treadmill. And I bounce around to all the songs on my iPod – the Pixies, Wagner, Richard and Linda Thompson, even books on tape....

I play golf – even though I’m awful at it.

Though I am an MP from Maharashtra, my heart beats for Katihar.

Suspense is very important. Even though this is humor and they’re short stories, that theory of building suspense is still there.

The period from 2001 to 2005 was really tough. My films were not working even though there was an acceptance of a model. I was depressed but did not cry. I cry when I am...

I find writing extraordinarily difficult and not very pleasurable, though I find having done it very pleasurable. I won’t lie about that.

So stick up ivy and the bays, and then restore the heathen ways, green will remind you of the Spring, though this great day denies the thing, and mortifies the earth, and all, but your...

The fact is, I was never too bright in school. I ain’t ashamed of it, though. I mean, how much do school principals make a month?

The country of the Two Holy Places has in our religion a peculiarity of its own over the other Muslim countries. In our religion, it is not permissible for any non-Muslim to stay in our...

I think it is good escapist entertainment even though it’s bad.

My father was a boxer, though. So, I have a particular interest in Ray Mancini, I think.

One of the hardest things I’ve had to deal with in my career is keeping my material topical even though I only release albums every three or four years.

Ice and I just live our own lives. I have to answer to him, and he has to answer to me, and that’s it. We don’t care about the outside world, and even though it...

Loyal and efficient work in a great cause, even though it may not be immediately recognized, ultimately bears fruit.

The difference between the Parthenon and the World Trade Center, between a French wine glass and a German beer mug, between Bach and John Philip Sousa, between Sophocles and Shakespeare, between a bicycle and a...

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

A changing environment will affect Alaska more than any other state, because of our location. I’m not one though who would attribute it to being man-made.

Even though the vast majority of my work was outside television, the amount of creation and inventing that went into the TV shows was non stop and, unknown to me, a great strain.

I feel as though the camera is almost a kind of voyeur in Mr. Bean’s life, and you just watch this bizarre man going about his life in the way that he wants to.

I’m greedy for that satisfaction of doing something hard and knowing that, even though I was afraid I couldn’t do it, that somehow I can deliver.

Sleepy Hollow had a lot of action in it, even though it was a fairy-tale movie.

Chase after the truth like all hell and you’ll free yourself, even though you never touch its coat tails.

Even though reality TV is very manipulated, it’s all manipulated so that something real happens. And so, our job in this era is to make that real thing happen, because nobody wants to see any...

For my whole career, I’ve been a singer-slash-songwriter, even though I’m very thankfully known for my voice. Songwriting has always been a joy in my life, and to be recognized for it is extremely validating.

I always felt as though, ‘If nothing else, I have a successful marriage.’

I try to incorporate melody. Even though I’m screaming, I still like to think I bring melody into screaming.

It was as though all my hostilities, anxieties, and conflicts were in one ball that was flying away into space, farther from me all the time, leaving me content with myself.

I watched ‘Ghostbusters’ from the age of four. It’s my favorite movie, still. Bill Murray’s, like, the weirdest straight man that you’ve ever seen. He’s convinced that he’s the normal one, even though he’s definitely...

I liked the kid who wrote me that he had to do a term paper on a modern poet and he was doing me because, though they say you have to read poems twice, he...

Flowers that bloom in the winter may not survive till spring.

I love speed. I love racing cars, whether it’s on the streets or wherever. Don’t tell the St. Louis police, though.

I find performing very difficult. It’s difficult to be a good actor. I get very nervous, even though it sounds disingenuous, because you could legitimately go, ‘Well, why do it?’

Some kids go walking in the mountains, but I just went to the cinema. So when I told my parents I wanted to be an actor, even though this wasn’t normal for Arab kids or...

For though we often need to be restored to the small, concrete, limited, and certain, we as often need to be reminded of the large, vague, unlimited, unknown.

I was a bratty little sister. I was the youngest of three, and I often felt as though I didn’t fit in.

It is precisely as though I were possessed by some other spirit when I enter on a new task of acting, as though something within me presses a switch and my own consciousness merges into...

I was born a proud daughter of Pakistan, though like all Swatis I thought of myself first as a Swati and Pashtun, before Pakistani.

I never shot on sets, but if I was traveling somewhere or on location, I would always have my camera, and I’d always be – it’s that kind of fly on the wall approach to...

After its defeat in the Second World War, Japan, unlike Germany, failed to show true contrition or give a fulsome apology, though it showered its neighbours, including China, with generous economic assistance. Only in 1995...

Live as though it were your last day on earth. Some day you will be right.

I have also been saddened, though hardly surprised, by the weakness of the EU’s reaction to the criminal attack on the Danish embassy in Syria, which seems to have been permitted, if not actively encouraged,...

I am still married, yes – no children. I have Benzo, though; he’s my dog, a Lhasa apso.

As a designer, you have to solve a lot of problems. Even though people are wearing clothes that are supposed to look beautiful, they’ll have to do all kinds of things.

My idea of relaxation is not lying down by a beach. I have to move around, do stuff. Though I’m a massive quiz show person.

Even though I occasionally appear on it, I don’t watch television.
