I knew 'True Detective' wasn't something I could allow anyone else to develop. But by the time HBO expressed an interest, I still had no real experience.
‐‐ Nic Pizzolatto
I knew very early on that there would be quite a bit of attention: Superman is known all over the place.
‐‐ Brandon Routh
I knew very little or nothing about the Olympics. Having qualified was itself a big achievement for me, and then being there was quite overwhelming. Although I lost in the opening round, but the fact that I fought well was enough for me to take away from Athens.
‐‐ Vijender Singh
I knew Vincent Price from films - he was a big movie star - but the first time I met him was when we filmed 'The Oblong Box.'
‐‐ Christopher Lee
I knew we were going to marry someday, but I was absolutely surprised when he actually proposed. And surprised he had bought a ring. I ran around the yard screaming.
‐‐ Jennifer Garner
I knew what book we had to write, it was clear in my head; it was journals and poetry. So I passed on their offer. I told my agent this is our vision, and no one's done it this way.
‐‐ Kenny Loggins
I knew what could happen to my son if he was sent to the wrong school and got in with the wrong crowd.
‐‐ Diane Abbott
I knew what I wanted to be at 8 years old - an actor!
‐‐ Lea Michele
I knew what I wanted to be, but I didn't know exactly how to get there. I thought you move to Nashville, you sing downtown, and someone discovers you, and you become a country music star. I had no idea.
‐‐ Tyler Farr
I knew what I wanted to do even when I was a little girl.
‐‐ Sharon Stone
I knew what I wanted to do for my entire life, from nursery to university. I've always been geared towards wanting to act. I've stuck with it, dedicated time to it.
‐‐ Archie Panjabi
I knew what I wanted to do from the time I was 5.
‐‐ Lenny Kravitz
I knew what I wanted to do in sport from the age of nine.
‐‐ Magdalena Neuner
I knew what I wanted to do when I was 13 and I had to go through four years of high school to get out. That's a blessing, because I never had to lay on my bed staring up at the ceiling going, 'What am I going to do with my life?'
‐‐ John Mayer
I knew what I was getting into: 72-ounce steaks, shakes by the quart, atomic wings. When I landed 'Man v. Food' in 2008, I accepted the fact that my weight would fluctuate. But instead of stressing about the scale, I made my long-term health a primary concern.
‐‐ Adam Richman
I knew what I was getting into when I chose golf. Hell, I knew I'd never get rich and famous. All the discrimination, the not being able to play where I deserved and wanted to play - in the end, I didn't give a damn. I was made for a tough life because I'm a tough man. And in the end, I won: I got a lot of black people playing golf.
‐‐ Charlie Sifford
I knew what it was to be uncomfortable in a movie theater watching unfolding on the screen images of myself - not me, but black people - that were uncomfortable.
‐‐ Sidney Poitier
I knew what kind of genre 'Casa de mi Padre' was going for. But my character, specifically, I think is very real.
‐‐ Genesis Rodriguez
I knew what my father, more than anything else, wanted me to do. Seventeen, vain, and spoiled by poems, I prepared to enter a remote West Point. I would succeed there, it was hoped, as he had.
‐‐ James Salter
I knew what my job was; it was to go out and meet the people and love them.
‐‐ Princess Diana
I knew what my times were and how my practices were progressing and how close I was to the goals I had set for the year. I swam hard. I always swam hard. If I didn't, I knew I would pay for it either the next day or the next meet.
‐‐ Debbie Meyer
I knew what normalcy was, and I wasn't having it.
‐‐ Gary Coleman
I knew what show business was, which was why I didn't want in on that action. I saw what happens! You get it, and then you lose it.
‐‐ Carrie Fisher
I knew what the Dodgers uniform represented as a kid growing up in Brooklyn.
‐‐ Joe Torre
I knew what type of player I was: a free agent, a small kid who came from a small school.
‐‐ Victor Cruz
I knew whatever I did, it was going to be big.
‐‐ Scott Caan
I knew when I got into this business I couldn't have it both ways: I could live the playboy lifestyle, which is not a bad thing to do, or have a traditional family life, which is how I grew up. And that was more important to me.
‐‐ Chris O'Donnell
I knew when I got to play with Al Jackson I would be a better bass player because he was the best drummer in the world. I worshipped him.
‐‐ Donald Dunn
I knew when I grew up, I always wanted to be a liar, and if you're in television, you're lying because you're just pretending to be yourself much like I'm doing now.
‐‐ John Ritter
I knew when I shot the 'She Keeps Me Warm' video that the comments were not going to be homophobic... that they would be about fat-shaming. I'm a large girl making out with somebody. I knew just that sheer fact would set people off.
‐‐ Mary Lambert
I knew when I was 10 that I wanted to act full-time.
‐‐ Jenna-Louise Coleman
I knew when I was 6. I just knew it; I didn't care about nothing else. If I didn't make it in this world, I would probably be homeless. I gave myself that little to fall back on.
‐‐ Shawn Wayans
I knew when I was diagnosed with cancer the only thing I could control was what I ate, what I drank and what I would think.
‐‐ Kris Carr
I knew when I went to a very hippie high school that focused on music that I wanted to do something in the industry.
‐‐ Tove Lo
I knew when my career was over. In 1965 my baseball card came out with no picture.
‐‐ Bob Uecker
I knew who I was as a girl but I had to find who I was as a woman.
‐‐ Delta Goodrem
I knew who Jackie Kennedy was in terms of being the wife of JFK and being a clothes horse, and I knew that she later married Onassis, but I had a very, very vague idea of who he was.
‐‐ Lydia Leonard
I Knew why I felt at home. The spirit of freedom was hovering over that play yard as it did all over France at that time. A country was free again.
‐‐ Audie Murphy
I knew William Burroughs really well, and I was always star struck being around him. I adored him.
‐‐ Patti Smith
I knew with Snape I was working as a double agent, as it turns out, and a very good one at that.
‐‐ Alan Rickman
I knew you had to go in and audition and maybe they'd hire you, and that's where you start. I had a good understanding about press: that it's the actor's responsibility to publicize his or her films.
‐‐ Laura Dern
I knew your father before you did, and I don't think he'd be too proud of what you're doing right now.
‐‐ Scotty Bowman
I knit for Caps for Good - a charity that gives hats to Third World babies - while I watch movies with friends.
‐‐ Isabelle Fuhrman
I knocked a lot of guys out from the seventh round on - so if I gave up, I would never have achieved what I did. There was no giving up. It's weak to give up. The easiest thing in the world is to quit.
‐‐ Micky Ward
I know a baseball star who wouldn't report the theft of his wife's credit cards because the thief spends less than she does.
‐‐ Joe Garagiola
I know a couple of my friends - quite a few - there is a conservative movement in Hollywood, and we kind of stay amongst ourselves.
‐‐ Robert Davi
I know a dramatic role is going to happen, but you just got to be patient, you know? It's going to happen when it's supposed to happen. I'm not rushing it. I'm not trying to make it happen tomorrow.
‐‐ Kevin Hart
I know a fellow who's as broke as the Ten Commandments.
‐‐ John Phillips Marquand
I know a few chords on the guitar, but I wouldn't be able do a show or even be part of a jam session with one.
‐‐ Jake Shimabukuro
I know a few expressions. I know what Hilary Clinton basically says in Russian when you translate her into Russian over and over and over is, 'izvinite pozhaluista.' That's, 'excuse me please, excuse me please.' Let's reset things. That's not the way you deal with folks. You show strength if you made a mistake.
‐‐ Louie Gohmert
