My New Year’s Resolution List usually starts with the desire to lose between ten and three thousand pounds.

I don’t understand the mentality of a rock fan, being obsessed with two or three songs from 25 years ago. I’m not that kind of a fan.

The form I most enjoy writing is the sonnet or sonnet-like forms, where you have a – you know, three stanzas or two stanzas that lead into a concluding couplet.

The three most dreaded words in the English language are ‘negative cash flow’.

I had no interest in being an actress what so ever, and when I was about 14 or 15, I was signed to a company in England. They owned a children’s TV show which they...

I eat fish, three times a week meat, and if not yogurt, something like this and it rarely continues.

It just didn’t seem to fit the story and lineage, I guess. So I just sort of surrounded ‘Blood Bank’ with three other songs that were very different from one other, and they all kind...

My favourite programme of all time is ‘Weeds’; the first three or four series are perfection.

You see, in America, it’s quite standard for an actor to sign, at the beginning of a series, for five or seven years. The maximum any British agent will allow you to have over an...

I’m not that good a player, and I’ll be the first to admit that. I might be a three or four grand-slam winner; I might be a two grand-slam winner, I don’t know.

There were three causes that accounted for the proclamation of martial law in Poland. First it was the progressing economic ruin of the country. Second, it was the decomposition of the functioning of the state....

Many of their lodges remained as perfect as when occupied. They were made of poles two or three inches in diameter, set up in circular form, and covered with cedar bark.

TV is designed a certain way where you have three, four days on stage and three or four days out. You’re basically making a feature every seven days. You have to shoot an hour’s worth.

The way I work, typically, I do everything at the very last minute. Even if I was given two months, I’d do it in the last three days.

I may as well say it, I have been married three times.

I’ve had two children. I’ve had three boyfriends. I’ve had a lot of things happen that can change your opinions and values and philosophies.

I started studying theater in school, and then I got into drama school at, like, 19, and it was a national drama school in Montreal, and so it was just you and nine other students...

I wouldn’t mind taking a rest for three or four months, but I have to keep on making films for the sake of my crew, who just wait for the next film because they’re not...

They still had the Lord Chamberlain, so we had this idiotic censorship. We were allowed three Jesus Christs instead of 10. Why three were OK, I don’t know.

For the first time, we have the genetic sequences of all three of the players in the global malaria debacle: the parasite, the anopheles mosquito and the human. It’s a very important milestone.

If a scene is longer than three pages, it better be for a good reason.

I live in a high rise with my family part of the year in New York and I don’t know three quarters of the people in the building. We live in the same square-footage and...
