I came here when I was 20. I came to go to school, but I ended up working for Halston as an assistant. That happened in a very strange way. My father had a meeting with Halston. And my father said to me, 'Join me. I want you to meet this amazing American designer.' And I happened to just tag along, and Halston offered me a job.

I came here when I was almost 22. I'm perfectly bilingual, but I'm never going to sound like Sandra Bullock.
‐‐ Roselyn Sanchez
I came here with a lot of things that I would like to get done for my community and my constituents. Shooting hoops at the White House was not at the top of the list but would certainly be a thrill.

‐‐ Vidal Sassoon

I came home for a week after I finished filming 'Rambo' because, after being in the jungle for three months, all I wanted to do was walk in the Highlands.
‐‐ Graham McTavish
I came home from school one day, and there was a phone call for me. And I picked up the phone. They said, 'This is the Harvard Admissions Department. We'd like to let you know that you're accepted in the freshman class.' And I said, 'Come on, who is this really?'
‐‐ Ben Bernanke
I came home in the afternoon to sleep, and there was this e-mail from Comedy Central saying they were interested in having me be part of this new show called 'Jump Cuts'! So I called them right away, and the producer started laughing and said, 'We sent that e-mail one minute ago - you're so fast!'
‐‐ Lev Yilmaz
I came, I saw, God conquered.
‐‐ Charles V
I came, I saw, I conquered.
‐‐ Julius Caesar
I came, I studied architecture in America, so my technical background's completely western. But my seventeen years, the formative years of one's life, and I can't say that the Chineseness in me is not there.
‐‐ I. M. Pei
I came in as an engineer and worked on artificial intelligence at Google. I worked on related sites and matching advertising to queries with some of our earliest ads.
‐‐ Marissa Mayer
I came in here and a fella asked me to have a drink. I said I don't drink. Then another fella said hear you and Joe DiMaggio aren't speaking and I said I'll take that drink.
‐‐ Casey Stengel
I came in on the decline. Phil Elliot was in first, he got his book out, he sold thirteen thousand, I think he got two issues out before I got mine in, this was March '87. He was out in December '86.
‐‐ Eddie Campbell
I came in on the tail end of the old school of Hollywood.
‐‐ Tom Berenger
I came in the Dawson's Creek era; it was all about tiny guys who looked like teenagers, and I haven't looked like a teenager ever. So I was, like, auditioning to be their dads. At 25.
‐‐ Jon Hamm
I came in the league as not a shooter, not a scorer. My game was to play defense and make my teammates better. The most important stat to me was that left column - winning. Nothing else matters.
‐‐ Jason Kidd
I came in thinking about Bobby Ewing, but I love this Ray Krebbs role.
‐‐ Steve Kanaly
I came in with Halley's Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don't go out with Halley's Comet. The Almighty has said, no doubt: 'Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together.'
‐‐ Mark Twain
I came in with my idea of what a cowboy would wear, but then I met some real cowboys and they said that I rode the horses well, shoed the horses, but no good cowboy would be wearing a pair of Levi's. I had to get a good old pair of Wranglers.
‐‐ Steve Kanaly
I came in with the intention of serving as long as it made sense for me to do so. The election was a natural moment to think about whether I wanted to stay longer, and I'm thrilled to turn the reins over to my longtime colleague Elisse Walter.
‐‐ Mary Schapiro
I came into a strong organization, and I hope I strengthened it more and expanded its capacity to deal with some of the challenges that might not have seemed as great 10 years ago, such as H.I.V., AIDS and children affected by war.
‐‐ Carol Bellamy
I came into acting with that sort of dull, meet-with-triumph-and-disaster-the-same philosophy and it's been the right one for me.
‐‐ Jamie Sives
I came into advertising in 1961. I had been turned down for jobs on the Ford account in the late Fifties as 'not their type.' If it hadn't been for Bill Bernbach, I would now be sitting in some luncheonette, continuing my life as a messenger.
‐‐ Jerry Della Femina
I came into American politics and into this political system proud of politics and the way we make decisions.
‐‐ Byron Dorgan
I came into Chicago in winter - I'd never been so cold in my life! I was very homesick, and a poor student at that time. America seemed so different and so filled with amazing things - and almost all of them were out of my reach.
‐‐ Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
I came into music because I thought the presentation of poetry wasn't vibrant enough. So I merged improvised poetry with basic rock chords. That was my original mission.
‐‐ Patti Smith
I came into music just because I wanted the bread. It's true. I looked around and this seemed like the only way I was going to get the kind of bread I wanted.
‐‐ Mick Jagger
I came into my teens unaware that most Americans, blacks as well as whites, were ignorant of the main facts of Negro history. And so it was the facts of other histories that I found most intriguing. I fell into a U.S. history major by chance late in my second year at Fisk University.
‐‐ David Levering Lewis
I came into office to do what was correct, not to see what was politically expedient to get re-elected.
‐‐ Luis Fortuno
I came into politics because I wished to change things. You can't do that by lying to people; you have to educate, and persuade, and carry them with you - and it's often a long haul.
‐‐ Ken Livingstone
I came into politics because of my opposition to what a Tory Government was doing to the community I grew up in.
‐‐ Nicola Sturgeon
I came into politics partly because I want to be able to reduce taxes so that individuals have more of their money to spend, so that businesses have more of their money to create jobs, but I believe that lower taxes are sustainable when you get the public finances in order, so I will only make promises I can keep on taxation.
‐‐ George Osborne
I came into reality television with MTV's show 'The Real World,' specifically the 1994 season set in San Francisco. I was glued to the Puck and Pedro drama.
‐‐ Molly O'Keefe
I came into the advertising business in 1952, at the age of sixteen, as a delivery boy for a stuffy, old-line advertising agency named Ruthruff and Ryan, which could have served as the setting for the 'Mad Men' television series without moving a desk.
‐‐ Jerry Della Femina
I came into the 'Comedy Bang! Bang!' TV show with a level of confidence that I don't think I would've had if I hadn't been doing the podcast for three years already. I certainly had to figure out in those three years the sense of humor I wanted to do and the way to talk to celebrities without being incredibly intimidated by them.
‐‐ Scott Aukerman
I came into the game when I broke into the major leagues, the minimum salary was seven thousand dollars, and I'd have to go home in the wintertime and get a job.
‐‐ Nolan Ryan
I came into the industry as an actor. And moved on to become a star with the help of my dancing skills.
‐‐ Mithun Chakraborty

I came into the music world in 1988 with a song called 'Ooh La La,' that was like a breath of fresh air in Haitian music.
‐‐ Michel Martelly
I came into the rap game in 1992; my life was changing, but my group wasn't successful; I also saw the biggest rappers in the world die all of a sudden in the ensuing years, so it was a matter of conquering yourself before you can conquer the world.
‐‐ Ja Rule
I came into the Republican party in 1980, when I was a college student at Georgetown.
‐‐ Luis Fortuno
I came into the world a Jew, and although I did not live my life entirely as a Jew, I think it is fitting that I should leave as a Jew. I don't want to turn my back on a great and noble heritage.
‐‐ Felix Frankfurter
I came into the world at the right time.
‐‐ Helge Ingstad
I came into the world at the same time as the auto, if you will.
‐‐ Ferdinand Porsche
I came into the world two months too soon, I was in such a hurry.
‐‐ Georg Brandes
I came into this environment where there was so much love, so much positive energy. I never heard my parents say, 'We have adopted kids.' The minute my sister Linda and I landed in Sweden, we were their kids.

I came into this whole business by going to see Rock Against Racism gigs with the Clash.

I came into this world the way every person on the planet does - with clenched fists.
