I'd only read a bit of the first book. And I just knew about all the media furor over it. But I'd not read books 2 or 3. I'd just read a bit of it. And I'd seen the films.
‐‐ David Thewlis
I'd originally intended 'Stand By Me' for the Drifters.
‐‐ Ben E. King
I'd paint long strips of canvas and abandon them on the beach, or put bread out in geometric patterns for the pigeons downtown. I wanted people to find something nice and intriguing to puzzle over. Then I'd go back to see if the things were still there, or if anyone would notice.
‐‐ Jenny Holzer
I'd park myself in the bookstore and read with one eye on everyone coming in. I remember reading a Robert Bly book of poetry.
‐‐ Sally Mann
I'd perform in the mirror; I'd pretend to do interviews. I'd practice my autograph for hours.
‐‐ Fleur East
I'd personally like to see the Human Rights Act go because I think we have had some problems with it.
‐‐ Theresa May
I'd photographed musicians before but this was different. Syd was very charismatic, and he had the aura of a poete maudit, which made him the perfect subject for me - I realised that rock n' rollers were the modern equivalent of all the poets I was so enamoured with.
‐‐ Mick Rock
I'd pick a young white guy over an old white guy for president anytime because the younger guy is more likely to have been influenced by the great social changes of the '60s and '70s.
‐‐ D. L. Hughley
I'd play for half my salary if I could hit in this dump all the time.
‐‐ George Herman
I'd play music on the street, especially in developing nations where a lot of kids couldn't wear shoes. In order to relate with kids that would be following me barefoot, I would take off my shoes, and they would all laugh at me because I couldn't go three steps without wincing.
‐‐ Michael Franti
I'd play the same character for ten years if the words and the moments that I'm playing are authentic.
‐‐ David Walton
I'd play with these Indian players, the tabla and sitar.
‐‐ Bob Livingston
I'd played dumbasses a lot. On Mad About You, I played a very dumb waitress and they saw me.
‐‐ Lisa Kudrow
I'd played in about four or five bands before we started up, only a couple of which did club dates.
‐‐ Daisy Berkowitz
I'd played with Jon Wurster as a duo just for a lark.
‐‐ John Darnielle
I'd prefer not to tell confidential information about future products.
‐‐ Phil Schiller
I'd prefer to be good, but I'm not always. I struggle.
‐‐ Laura Marling
I'd prefer to go under the radar and just do the acting without being famous for it.
‐‐ Kelly Reilly
I'd pretty much given up hope of being published, so I just wrote the book I wanted to read.
‐‐ Kate Morton
I'd probably be a super wealthy guy if I had sat around writing songs and getting them placed like everyone else I know. But I write songs about people or after I meet them and they're somewhat biographical - they're fiction but also non-fiction.
‐‐ Nile Rodgers
I'd probably be famous now if I wasn't such a good waitress.
‐‐ Jane Siberry
I'd probably describe my sense of humor as 'twisted,' I guess. It's not hard to make me laugh, especially when I'm surrounded by my close friends, especially my bandmates.
‐‐ Mac DeMarco
I'd probably play games obsessively if I didn't write, although I admit I don't read novels partly because I don't enjoy it, not just because it's the wrong side of the creator-consumer barrier for me. I'm a visual writer. I think in moving 3D images and write down what I observe.
‐‐ Karen Traviss
I'd probably say my biggest yo-yo was when I was finishing up my senior year of college. I lost about 100 pounds and within a year gained it all back.
‐‐ Al Roker
I'd probably say to my younger self, get yourself a whole collection of lawyers. Which is what I have now.
‐‐ Mike Oldfield
I'd probably sit around the house and get lonesome if I didn't have something to do.
‐‐ David Edwards
I'd probably still be a financial journalist now if it weren't for writing novels. Mmm. Fun! I'm much happier writing novels!
‐‐ Sophie Kinsella
I'd probably want to teach at university, because children would drive me insane. I suspect it would be English literature, Shakespeare and so forth. I've always been deeply, deeply in love with that kind of thing.
‐‐ Stephen Fry
I'd propose that each central-city child should have an entitlement from the state to attend any school in the metropolitan area outside his own district - with per pupil funds going with him.
‐‐ James S. Coleman
I'd pull my little brother on our motorcycle on an inner tube behind it. We would go fishing, we would hunt some, growing up.
‐‐ Sam Brownback
I'd put it this way: Canadians want politicians to work together on their behalf. So that's what I'm committed to doing. I think it's been the goal of every NDP leader. Because we had a profound belief that we could do a good job on behalf of Canadians... if we were given that opportunity.
‐‐ Jack Layton
I'd put the ninety-nine billion dollars - whatever it is - that's being appropriated for the Air Force and the Navy, and I'd put it into schools. I'd put it into traveling scholarships.
‐‐ Nelson Algren
I'd quite like to direct. I don't think it will happen, but my urge is that way inclined.
‐‐ Kate Fleetwood
I'd quite like to do a film but I'd also love to do more theatre. I want to keep challenging myself with good roles. It's harder for women because there aren't as many challenging roles.
‐‐ Ruth Wilson
I'd quite like to do a musical. I'd probably have to develop that myself.
‐‐ Aidan Gillen
I'd quite like to have one place where I stay put. And I don't like living in cities all the time. In order to have ideas, you have to have some peace and quiet.
‐‐ Daphne Guinness
I'd quite like to try all sorts of different things, whether it be theatre, TV or film.
‐‐ April Pearson
I'd quite like to write a book about comics, actually. But trying to write about comics as literature, which I don't think anyone's really done before. Sometimes they're more like fan books, and I'd quite like to write one about the Marvel universe over the last 50 years. It's an unprecedented achievement to create that length of continuity.
‐‐ Stewart Lee
I'd rate myself an 8. I do have my flaws, but I'm a cool dude. If I wasn't myself, I'd kick it with me. I'm a down-to-earth person and all around cool guy.
‐‐ Lance Gross
I'd rather a young black actor read about success as opposed to how tough it was. I get these roles because I can act and that's it. Hopefully that's it.
‐‐ Idris Elba
I'd rather Apple cannibalize Apple than somebody else cannibalize Apple.
‐‐ Tim Cook
I'd rather attempt something I'm not sure I can do.
‐‐ Robin Wright
I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.
‐‐ Robert H. Schuller
I'd rather be a big fish in a specialized pond than a little, little fish in a more generalized big pond.
‐‐ Leonard Lauder
I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are.
‐‐ Milton Berle
I'd rather be a creature of the night than an old dude.
‐‐ Gerard Way
I'd rather be a face for happiness and doing things that you have a passion for, rather than faking it and pretending like I'm this face of women's basketball, when I can't stand the sport at all.
‐‐ Elena Delle Donne
I'd rather be a failure at something I love than a success at something I hate.
‐‐ George Burns
I'd rather be a good person off the field than a good baseball player on the field.
‐‐ Bryce Harper
