For me, the risks in terms of opening that brewpub were fairly high. I put my house up as collateral, I invested the liquid money I had and two years of my time to get it over, but that's really not much of a risk for what the potential reward was if it worked.
‐‐ John Hickenlooper
For me, the romantic comedies I love are the ones that pay homage to the genre, but also find their ways to twist it and tweak it.
‐‐ Greg Berlanti
For me, the safest place is out on a limb.
‐‐ Shirley MacLaine
For me the safety pin is about rebellion, and I'm punk in the soul.
‐‐ Donatella Versace
For me, the short story is the depth of a novel, the breadth of a poem, and, as you come to the last few paragraphs, the experience of surprise.
‐‐ Amy Bloom
For me, the show must go on - it doesn't matter how ill you are, you get on and do it.
‐‐ Martine McCutcheon
For me, the showbiz memoir is uninteresting - you want to tell people something they don't know about.
‐‐ Alexei Sayle
For me, the sketching of dresses was about fantasy and dreams. In my little room at home, I felt that I was somewhere else. In Paris, for instance.
‐‐ Alber Elbaz
For me, 'The Social Network' isn't about Facebook. It certainly isn't about how people use it. It's about a flawed character and his pursuit of that grand idea that defines him and validates his life and how far he'll go to get it, and the repercussions that come as a result of that - what he gives up in the process.
‐‐ Trent Reznor
For me, the sound design and the musical score is a big part of what makes scary movies work.
‐‐ James Wan
For me, the source material can come from anywhere. It can be a poem, it can be a dream, it can be a movie, as long as the end part of it is interesting - that's what it's about for me.
‐‐ Baltasar Kormakur
For me, the spirit of Christmas means being happy and giving freely. It's a tradition for all the kids in the family to help mom decorate the tree. Christmas is all about family, eating, drinking and making merry.
‐‐ Malaika Arora Khan
For me, the stronger ground I have in my personal life, then the more will I have to fight the good fight.
‐‐ Ani DiFranco
For me, the study of these laws is inseparable from a love of Nature in all its manifestations.
‐‐ Murray Gell-Mann
For me the stunts are so cool, they're one of my favourite things when we're doing the film.
‐‐ Rupert Grint
For me, the summer will be pure gray - mother-of-pearl gray, very pale gray. To me, this is the big statement for summer. Then we have light blue, light turquoise, lots of pink.
‐‐ Gianni Versace
For me, the teen years were all about searching for a place for myself, wondering why I seemed so different than everyone else, wondering especially why no one could look past the surface and figure out who I really was underneath.
‐‐ Robin Wasserman
For me, the 'Three Stoppages' was a first gesture liberating me from the past.
‐‐ Marcel Duchamp
For me, the times in my life when I've been single have been more formative and crucial than I could have imagined. I can cope, function and be happy on my own. I'm highly capable. That doesn't mean I don't like being with a partner, or that I don't feel more rounded when I'm with someone. But the times on my own have been so good.
‐‐ Lesley Manville
For me, the toughest thing for kids to deal with is when the parents are fighting. It's not violence on them - it's the feeling of violence in the family.
‐‐ Avi Arad
For me, the triad of 'Harry Potter,' the 'Hunger Games' and 'Twilight' feature strong women, and as a declared feminist, it's a wonderful thing. These women have really opened up this particular world of storytelling, which I'm very grateful for.
‐‐ Cassandra Clare
For me, the two weeks between Christmas and Twelfth Night have come to be reserved for desultory reading. The pressure of the holiday is over, the weather outside is frightful, there are lots of leftovers to munch on, vacation hours are being used up.
‐‐ Michael Dirda
For me, the vast marvel is to be alive. For man, or for flowers or beast or bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly and perfectly alive.
‐‐ Al Purdy
For me, the virtual choir has taught me that, if anything, the Internet builds these post-national tribes, people finding each other anyway they can.
‐‐ Eric Whitacre
For me the visual is just as important as the music.
‐‐ Christina Aguilera
For me the voice is the most important, but making your singing believable makes a great performer.
‐‐ Hollie Cavanagh
For me, the way I stay consistent is through stand-up comedy.
‐‐ Kevin Hart
For me, the way to approach a subject such as Vietnam is through storytelling.
‐‐ Tim O'Brien
For me, the wheelchair symbolizes disability in a way a cane does not.
‐‐ Annette Funicello
For me, the whole process involves envisioning this book in my head as I'm working.
‐‐ Daniel Clowes
For me, the winning strategy in any start-up business is, 'Think big but start small.'
‐‐ Carmen Busquets
For me, the work begins with a rough cut of the film. I can't do much with the script. I've tried to write music to a script prior to seeing the film, but I've found it turns out to be a waste of time.
‐‐ Cliff Martinez
For me, the world is a stage, and we are all playing the character we have chosen to play on that stage. It is the job of the photographer to capture the drama of the performance.
‐‐ Alix Smith
For me, the world that I inhabit in reality is probably a very different world than the one people expect that I would be in.
‐‐ David Bowie
For me, the worst part of playing golf, by far, has always been hitting the ball.
‐‐ Dave Barry
For me, the worst writing generally just 'flips' things: this person's really a traitor; it was all a dream; etc. Nothing is so ruinous as a forced 'twist,' I think.
‐‐ Nic Pizzolatto
For me, the writing process is the same as the reading process. I want to know what happens next.
‐‐ Neal Asher
For me the writing, when I'm going to direct it myself, is really just the first draft, and I don't change it very much; I only change it on average about two lines per movie.
‐‐ John Sayles
For me, theory has always opened things up to where I can walk into a room and just by hearing something I know exactly where to go on the guitar. I have a better time playing because I have a variety of colors to bring to the table.
‐‐ John Frusciante
For me there ain't no high heel high enough.
‐‐ Christian Louboutin
For me, there are always things to learn. It's like the next movie is going to be the good one, you know.
‐‐ Maiwenn
For me, there are no answers, only questions, and I am grateful that the questions go on and on. I don't look for an answer because I don't think there is one. I'm very glad to be the bearer of a question.
‐‐ P. L. Travers
For me, there are no my people and strangers, no bad people and good people. All people are equal for me.
‐‐ Viktor Yanukovych
For me there are two types of country: There's the shoot-yourself-in-the-head country, and then there's really good country music.
‐‐ Avicii
For me, there are two types of people: the young and the experienced.
‐‐ A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
For me, there are worse things than being pigeonholed as the nice guy.
‐‐ John Krasinski
For me, there can be no higher public service than serving as a member of the U.S. Supreme Court.
‐‐ Merrick Garland
For me, there has always been a disconnect with the sort of elitist structure of the high-art world - and my distaste for that is at odds with my feeling that art should aspire to do great things.
‐‐ Shepard Fairey
For me, there is a basic recognition of horror as the most open doorway where the intersection of philosophical and religious ideas can come tighter.
‐‐ Scott Derrickson
For me, there is a lot of room for improvement and there are a lot of things I would like to be better at.
‐‐ Geddy Lee
