I'll work thirteen hours at a time producing a new track. Not a lot of people understand that - not girlfriends, friends, family.
‐‐ Ansel Elgort
I'll work to ensure that every single refugee who seeks asylum in the United States has a fair chance to tell his or her story. This is the least we can offer people fleeing persecution and devastation.
‐‐ Hillary Clinton
I'll work with a director if I think I'm going to get into a comfortable situation, and if it's someone I respect and who respects me, even if they're not so well known. Movies are hard to make, and you have to work toward a common ethic and do your best.
‐‐ Robert De Niro
I'll work with anyone - and I really do mean that - Democrat, Republican, independent, Libertarian, contrarian, vegetarian.
‐‐ Elizabeth Warren
I'll work with Jerry Seinfeld any day of the week. Get a nice little paycheck there, but you do it for free. It's just good to be associated with that man. He's a great guy.
‐‐ Patrick Warburton
I'll write a character with a certain actor in mind, but then once I start casting, I have to forget about who I pictured.
‐‐ Nicole Holofcener
I'll write about myself, or people I know, or archetypal characters, but the goal is to get at some truth, not to necessarily convey my own experience as an individual to the world.
‐‐ Conor Oberst
I'll write anything; I don't want to judge its form.
‐‐ Mitch Leigh
I'll write maybe one long paragraph describing the events, then a page or two breaking the events into chapters, and then reams of pages delving into my characters. After that, I'm ready to begin.
‐‐ Anne Tyler
I loathe all political parties, which I regard as inventions of the devil. My favourite prime minister was Sir Alec Douglas-Home, not because he was on the Right, but because he spent a year in office without, on his own admission, doing a damned thing.
‐‐ George MacDonald Fraser
I loathe and detest all this trivialisation of politics.
‐‐ Ken Livingstone
I loathe and detest movies and television and don't watch any. I do not have the time.
‐‐ Felix Dennis
I loathe bad theater and most theatre is very bad because it's repetitious, unexciting and, dangerously, it is sometimes praised for those things.
‐‐ Fiona Shaw
I loathe blogs when I look at them. Blogs look, to me, illiterate. They look hasty, like someone babbling.
‐‐ Paul Theroux
I loathe celebrity. I can't stand it.
‐‐ Elton John
I loathe cheese, it makes me ill.
‐‐ Colin Baker
I loathe crowds. I especially don't like cities. A city involves biomass. And biomass gets to me.
‐‐ Alan Garner
I loathe gardening, but I love gardens, and I have two beautiful gardens. I can not bear gardening, but I love gardens.
‐‐ Elton John
I loathe hair salons. People have always told me I am in the wrong business because I can't stand getting my hair cut or having it messed around with. Hairdressers feel as if they've got to be your shrinks. I just want them to do my hair so I can get out of there.
‐‐ Erin Wasson
I loathe having to go out and get dressed up. I'd much rather stay home and watch CNN.
‐‐ Brigid Berlin
I loathe hecklers. I haven't got a good syllable to say. When you come out of the club circuit and into the concert hall, they should be gone. There's an element of manners that should tell you that the ticket is dear and it's a different venue.
‐‐ Billy Connolly
I loathe my body. The liver spots, the sagging flesh.
‐‐ Gian Carlo Menotti
I loathe narcissism, but I approve of vanity.
‐‐ Diana Vreeland
I loathe rock stars. I am a music nerd, a fan, a follower... just like any fan of music might be. And although I have blood-relatives, a lot of times I feel closer to my audience than my true family, because at least my fans get what I'm doing, to a certain extent, whereas my family does not.
‐‐ Phil Anselmo
I loathe the idea of going onstage in a T-shirt and jeans.
‐‐ Martin Gore
I loathe the trivialization of poetry that happens in creative writing classes. Teachers set exercises to stimulate subject matter: Write a poem about an imaginary landscape with real people in it. Write about a place your parents lived in before you were born. We have enough terrible poetry around without encouraging more of it.
‐‐ Donald Hall
I loathe the word 'celebrity,' and I hope I'm not a diva. Whenever I see diva-ish behaviour, I just leave the room; I find it appalling. You should always try to be civil to people.
‐‐ David Harewood
I locate a great deal of the power of Occupy Wall Street in the name itself, 'Occupy Wall Street,' or '#OccupyWallStreet.' It works because the name contains everything you need to know: the tactic and the target. The name is also modular. You can create your own offshoot in your own city.
‐‐ Dana Spiotta
I locate that special problem in a character and then try to understand it. That's the genesis of all my work.
‐‐ Manuel Puig
I long ago came to the conclusion that all life is 6 to 5 against.
‐‐ Damon Runyon
I long ago lost track of the number of times the Obama administration has assured everyone that its vacuum-cleaner approach to electronic surveillance does not threaten the privacy or the rights of Americans.
‐‐ Andrew Rosenthal
I long ago ran out of bookshelf space and so, like a museum with its art, simply rotate my books from the boxes to the shelves and back again.
‐‐ Michael Dirda
I long ago suggested the hypothesis, that in the basin of the Thames there are indications of a meeting in the Pleistocene period of a northern and southern fauna.
‐‐ Charles Lyell
I long, as does every human being, to be at home wherever I find myself.
‐‐ Maya Angelou
I long for a South African society that's free of ideological forces - no society can ever really be free of ideological forces - but I wish it was free of power.
‐‐ Damon Galgut
I long for an audience. I ache for it. I think that's one of the hardest things about the television medium is that you don't get that. You don't get that immediate response.
‐‐ Bridget Regan
I long for books; I am utterly greedy about them.
‐‐ Deb Caletti
I long for my garden to be complete. Working in it is one of my joys, but it will never be finished because it's forever changing with the seasons.
‐‐ Mary Quant
I long for, not a writer's retreat - I can write in any situation - but a reader's retreat.
‐‐ Aleksandar Hemon
I long for the countryside. That's where I get my calm and tranquillity - from being able to come and find a spot of green.
‐‐ Emilia Clarke
I long for the day when advertising will become a business for a grown man.
‐‐ Howard Gossage
I long for the day when there are things I feel strongly about politically.
‐‐ Rosamund Pike
I long for the days when athletes were revered. I want to see the romance return to sports, to see people enjoy the game purely for the game and the players.
‐‐ Mike Piazza
I long for the days when grosses were not even known. There was no weekend competition.
‐‐ Mark Rydell
I long for the old days of Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn, stars who had real glamour and mystique. We only knew so much about their lives; the rest was a mystery.
‐‐ Pixie Lott
I long for the raised voice, the howl of rage or love.
‐‐ Leslie Fiedler
I long for the time of no more departures. It has something to do with age, probably.
‐‐ Heinrich Boll
I long for the time when all human history is taught as one history, because it really is.
‐‐ Maya Angelou
I long for typical days, but rarely get them any more.
‐‐ Nora Roberts
I long had a goal of becoming president of a company. But it was not till I was 57 years old that I became president of Cisco Systems with its 34 employees. Life offers opportunity at every stage.
