I like it when actors get an opportunity to chew into something. They love scenes with beginnings, middles, and ends - scenes that give an arc to their characters and allow audiences to get to know these people.
‐‐ Tracy Letts
I like it when an actor is secure enough to ask questions, and the director is secure enough not to be threatened by that.
‐‐ Paul Haggis
I like it when characters respond to things that are outrageous and movie-like in an authentic way.
‐‐ Jane Goldman
I like it when hard work pays off.
‐‐ Mikaela Shiffrin
I like it when I can hear directly from the writer: what they're seeing, what they're envisioning, and what their intention is.
‐‐ Jennifer Hale
I like it when I can sing half of a verse and throw the mike in some kid's face, and they sing it right back to me.
‐‐ Mitchel Musso
I like it when I go into a cinema and I'm not aware that I'm there; I'm totally involved in the film for two hours.
‐‐ Atticus Ross
I like it when I'm chirpy and happy, so I decided to do my hair green. I got my sunflowers too - I was like a living, walking garden.
‐‐ Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce
I like it when I strut.
‐‐ Delta Burke
I like it when it's nice and quiet. I'm not a big city person.
‐‐ Louis Oosthuizen
I like it when journalists are nice to me, and it's happening more and more.
‐‐ Ron Wood
I like it when my wife is in her jeans, with very little makeup. But, I also appreciate the range - the different ways she can look. The moment she walks out all dressed up and... whoa! That's always good.
‐‐ Patrick Wilson
I like it when one is not certain what one sees. When we do not know why the photographer has taken a picture and when we do not know why we are looking at it, all of a sudden we discover something that we start seeing. I like this confusion.
‐‐ Saul Leiter
I like it when people make an effort to wear things that you wouldn't normally put together - I like eccentrics.
‐‐ Bat for Lashes
I like it when somebody tells me a story, and I actually really feel that that's becoming like a lost art in American cinema.
‐‐ Quentin Tarantino
I like it when someone gives me a new book of poetry by a poet I haven't read.
‐‐ Nell Freudenberger
I like it when someone tells me 'I don't agree.' This is a true collaborator. When they say 'Oh, how great, how great, how great,' that's not useful.
‐‐ Pope Francis
I like it when songs develop in some way. Four minutes usually isn't enough time for something to develop musically.
‐‐ Donald Fagen
I like it when stories are left open.
‐‐ Alan Rickman
I like it when the deeper you go with the character, the more you see the layers start to peel away.
‐‐ Edward Norton
I like it when things crescendo to a huge moment like 'Hold Back the River.'
‐‐ James Bay
I like it when you have something happening by coincidence. Just something in a book is enough. But I prefer a fragment of an image so you are far more free to bring in elements of your own.
‐‐ Dries van Noten
I like it when, you know, 3-under wins, you know, 20-under par, it just brings so many other people into contention.
‐‐ Paula Creamer
I like it when you read a script and there's the part that you show to the other characters and then there's the part that only the audience knows.
‐‐ Anjelica Huston
I like Italian movies. I was frequently there in the '60s, in Rome and the vicinity. It was a great period in life. I was very influenced by their stuff.
‐‐ Clint Eastwood
I like Jaco Pastorius' 'Portrait of Tracy.' He was this bass player who played jazz fusion. He was the dopest bass player who ever lived.
‐‐ Ty Dolla Sign
I like Jacques Derrida; I think he's funny. I like my philosophy with a few jokes and puns. I know that that offends other philosophers; they think he's not taking things seriously, but he comes up with some marvellous puns. Why shouldn't you have a bit of fun while dealing with the deepest issues of the mind?
‐‐ Alan Moore
I like Jailhouse Rock and Love Me Tender. The black-and-white films. With music, I tend more toward the '70s stuff because I was at the shows for those, so they bring back memories.
‐‐ Lisa Marie Presley
I like James Franco. I think he's really cute. I remember a while ago there was a rumor going around that he was getting married and all my friends and I were freaking out. Yeah, I think he's cute!
‐‐ Miranda Cosgrove
I like Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Common. But I like the underground stuff like Young Jeezy, Black Rob and Shine. I also love heavy metal like Slipknot and Pantera, It's very intense stuff.
‐‐ Vanilla Ice
I like Jay-Z. I love Luda. I love Ledisi. I like Beyonce, of course. I think she's just brilliant. She's a triple threat. But my favorite - my all-time rapper is Tupac. See, I could have been Tupac's girlfriend.
‐‐ Stephanie Mills
I like Jay Z, Journey, and Kings of Leon.
‐‐ Alex Rodriguez
I like Jaykae. He's a great artist, and I absolutely love Dr. Dre's album and a bit of Calvin Harris now and then.
‐‐ Adam Peaty
I like jazz, but I could never play it. You just sit there with a guitar the size of a Chevy on your chest, wearing a stupid hat, playing the same solo for an hour.
‐‐ Dave Mustaine
I like jazz, rock n' roll, some hip hop - I can't think of any music I don't like.
‐‐ B. B. King
I like jealous men. I love jealousy. I do.
‐‐ Adriana Lima
I like jeans with sneakers or boots.
‐‐ Jane Levy
I like Jeremy Scott, and he has some really dope sneakers.
‐‐ Theophilus London
I like Jesus, I mean, I think he was a good guy.
‐‐ Denis Leary
I like jewelry. Big rings, big necklaces. Shoes, belts, luggage.
‐‐ Janel Parrish
I like Jo Nesbo and Hakan Nesser. There are so many good books in the world. I don't want to spend time reading bad crime novels.
‐‐ Maj Sjowall
I like Joaquin Phoenix. He's an amazing actor and he's so buff.
‐‐ Katie Leung
I like Jodie Foster and then Meryl Streep. They're just, like, the greatest ever.
‐‐ Elle Fanning
I like Joe Sakic. Coming out of Buffalo, I obviously like Alexander Mogliny, Pat LaFontaine. Hasek is up there. Miroslav Satan. Whoever seemed to be a good player at the time I'd watch. Jagr too. I tried to learn a lot from those guys.
‐‐ Patrick Kane
I like John Carpenter. I like some of his films more than others.
‐‐ Guillermo del Toro
I like John Kerry. I think he's intellectually curious and very thoughtful. I think he's deeply committed on issues like the environment. I think he's an internationalist, which I am.
‐‐ Howard Dean
I like John McCain. He can always be counted on for a good quote.
‐‐ Ted Cruz
I like jokes, but Ray and I, we never did jokes. We weren't in that line of humor. We each contributed our own kind of observations. I'm glad to have people look at and laugh at and respect and get some creative juice out of what we did by observing.
‐‐ Bob Elliott
I like joking around and being a little mischievous. Once an audience or even a group of friends realizes that you're being benevolent about it, then they're along for the ride.
‐‐ Reggie Watts
