I'd like to say from the beginning that the 12 years I've been coming here, I've met unfailing courtesy and cooperation, courtesy from your people and cooperation from the Ministry of Information.
‐‐ Peter Arnett
I'd like to say I'm R&B's savior. Whether that's the truth or not, I'm definitely going out there with my mic and my shield to declare, 'I am here to save R&B.' I will have the people saying, 'Sir, there is a man at the musical gates saying he is here to save R&B.'
‐‐ Jamie Foxx
I'd like to say I was smart enough to finish six grades in five years, but I think perhaps the teacher was just glad to get rid of me.
‐‐ Alan Shepard
I'd like to say it is only average people who revel in the mistakes of others.
‐‐ Sibel Kekilli
I'd like to say that I'm a rock star, but I'm not - I'm honestly more of a relationship kind of guy. I'm a guy you could take home to meet your mum rather than a guy your mum wouldn't like.
‐‐ Ed Sheeran
I'd like to say that parody is a celebration of a person's specific characteristics, as opposed to mockery.
‐‐ Ana Gasteyer
I'd like to say that right now, in the last few years, the Democrats have been closer - have been more pro-environment. The coal industry is pretty well entrenched in the Republican Party and that's one of the things that we need to phase out.
‐‐ Ted Turner
I'd like to say this was our worst game. Unfortunately, I can't.
‐‐ Don Mattingly
I'd like to say to all my fans out there, thanks for the support. And to all my doubters, thank you very much because you guys have also pushed me.
‐‐ Usain Bolt
I'd like to scale back the television. I'm constantly told that I'm over-exposed, and I don't want to end up like Carol Vorderman.
‐‐ Jack Whitehall
I'd like to see a comprehensive gun control bill brought to the floor, but if we have to do it in several votes, that's fine, too. But give us the vote. Let us make our case to our colleagues on the floor and have a vote.
‐‐ James Langevin
I'd like to see a ghost. It would confirm there's an afterlife.
‐‐ Marlon Wayans
I'd like to see a much more open Monarchy, myself. I used to think they were completely useless and we should get rid of them. I don't necessarily feel that way anymore. I'm still ambivalent, I still loathe the British class system, and the Royal family are the apex of the British class system.
‐‐ Helen Mirren
I'd like to see a Republican Party that embraces a lot of the libertarian ideas.
‐‐ Jim DeMint
I'd like to see a world free of strife, stress, pain, hunger, war - a cool place where everyone could live.
‐‐ Dionne Warwick
I'd like to see an arrested growth of development. You can't stop it, but it's important we do something about the developers having the upper hand.
‐‐ John Murray
I'd like to see anyone do what I do for one week.
‐‐ GG Allin
I'd like to see fashion slow down a bit. What freaks me out about fashion today is the speed - the speed of consuming, the speed of ideas. When fashion moves so fast, it takes away something I always loved, which is the idea that fashion should be slightly elusive. Hard to grasp, hard to find.
‐‐ Raf Simons
I'd like to see marriage count again among African-Americans and not just in the society in general.
‐‐ Leah Ward Sears
I'd like to see more crossover between white and black music. That's something I've been advocating for years.
‐‐ Daryl Hall
I'd like to see much more understanding of emotional issues around hurt, abandonment, disappointment, longing, failure and shame, where they stem from and how they drive people and policies brought into public discourse.
‐‐ Susie Orbach
I'd like to see my grandchildren climb trees, not stand under them. I'd like to see them learn to make bread and brown it over a fire using my toasting fork.
‐‐ Laurie Graham
I'd like to see myself married with a child and hopefully still involved in the entertainment business as an actor who is also able to write a bit and direct some projects.
‐‐ Fred Savage
I'd like to see one person - just one - who would own up to having been a coward.
‐‐ Edith Piaf
I'd like to see people pay attention to the science of hip hop. The knowledge part, the political side of what hip hop could do, or where hip hop is gonna go. I always say it's gonna become universal as we become a galactic union.
‐‐ Afrika Bambaataa
I'd like to see someone try to make Cush Jumbo up. It's my real name.
‐‐ Cush Jumbo
I'd like to see something done about the long putters and belly putters. But I go back and forth on that. I've actually worked with a belly putter.
‐‐ Matt Kuchar
I'd like to see that bipartisanship come back that we used to have in the House of Representatives, in the Clinton years. I think there's a possibility that the voters are going to send the message that everybody running - Congress, the Senate, the presidency - that they want us to come together.
‐‐ Bill Richardson
I'd like to see the Amazon rainforests before they're all gone, and also the Galapagos - that's another one I'd like to do. I'd love to go diving in those areas. Basically, places, like, that are kind of going away, and I'd like to see them before they all become condos and high-rises.
‐‐ Bill Engvall
I'd like to see the bay cleaned up before I die.
‐‐ Richard Wright
I'd like to see the comics' style expanded. I'd like to see artists synthesize traditional comics arts style with fine-arts styles or whatever. I like to see innovation. I don't like it when an art form becomes stagnant.
‐‐ Harvey Pekar
I'd like to see the giant squid. Nobody has ever seen one. I could tell you people who have spent thousands and thousands of pounds trying to see giant squid. I mean, we know they exist because we have seen dead ones. But I have never seen a living one. Nor has anybody else.
‐‐ David Attenborough
I'd like to see the government get out of war altogether and leave the whole field to private individuals.
‐‐ Joseph Heller
I'd like to see the government talk a little bit less about the AP and little more about Bob Levinson.
‐‐ Matt Apuzzo
I'd like to see the health care professionals making decisions, not some bureaucrat in Indianapolis working for an insurance company.
‐‐ Chuck Schumer
I'd like to see the high schools put in a rule that limits recruitable athletes from playing on teams outside a 100-mile radius from their home or school.
‐‐ Dean Smith
I'd like to see the Olympics live. I've only watched it on television.
‐‐ Shania Twain
I'd like to see the Second Coming in every one of us. That we all be Jesus. That we all embody that consciousness.
‐‐ Jane Siberry
I'd like to see the University of Western Australia and the other four or five universities in Western Australia really excel through having some of the greatest minds in the world attracted to it.
‐‐ Andrew Forrest
I'd like to see 'Top Chef: Amateur'. Sometimes we have an amateur chef on the show and they just can't cut it against the pros but there are some great stories there.
‐‐ Tom Colicchio
I'd like to see us improving on what we had last year.
‐‐ David Leslie
I'd like to see where boys and girls end up if they get equal encouragement - I think we might have some differences in how leadership is done.
‐‐ Sheryl Sandberg
I'd like to see women get on to boards and run companies despite the fact that men occupy the citadels of power.
‐‐ Rachel Johnson
I'd like to sell out worldwide stadium tours. That'd be something. Or to have sixty number ones on Billboard.
‐‐ Zara Larsson
I'd like to set a story in Australia, but I would need to feel confident my German and U.S. readers, for example, would stay with me.
‐‐ Michael Robotham
I'd like to settle down eventually, but acting is emotionally draining.
‐‐ Scott Patterson
I'd like to share my experiences and the lessons I've learned and hopefully create some amazing, fun courses.
‐‐ Tiger Woods
I'd like to show people that if you put the hard work in and you believe in yourself, then you can do whatever you want to.
‐‐ Oscar Pistorius
I'd like to sit down with Hillary Clinton onstage and ask her about Glass Steagall and all the big banks and her own campaign contributions.
‐‐ Eileen Myles
