I loved the world of roller derby because I thought it was such an empowering metaphor, that you get out there and do it. It's such a rocker, athletic, capable, cool exhibitionist sport; it's about this great sort of camaraderie.
‐‐ Drew Barrymore
I loved theater growing up, and my mom always took us to the touring productions that would come through town. We would go to Chicago all the time and see shows. I loved it.
‐‐ Robin Lord Taylor
I loved theatre and did magic, too, but I was never the best at it - there was never a teacher saying, 'You're great, you have to make this your career!' I was good at science and math. I figured I'd go into science and become a dentist.
‐‐ Nathan Fielder
I loved theatre and film when I was growing up in Harpenden, Hertfordshire. My mum's a reflexologist and my dad's a corporate financier.
‐‐ Laura Haddock
I loved 'Tin Cup' because even though that character had her own career and was strong, she was pretty confused. I think she was my favorite character because she was well-rounded. She didn't have it all together.
‐‐ Rene Russo
I loved to dance and went to Studio 54 at least twice a week. But I always felt nervous around the people there. I was in awe of that whole Halston-Liza Minnelli crowd. To me, they were the real celebrities, and I was just a girl from Idaho.
‐‐ Margaux Hemingway
I loved to do sports when I was young. We were on a family holiday and went sailing. I just loved it. And there, you can say, life began to change for me.
‐‐ Hannah Mills
I loved to eat. For all of Hollywood's rewards, I was hungry for most of those 20 years.
‐‐ Gene Tierney
I loved to fall down.
‐‐ Dick Van Dyke
I loved to get all dusty and ride horses and plant potatoes and cotton.
‐‐ Dorothy Malone
I loved to learn everything, everything in sight, and I was never satisfied that I knew everything there was to know in each of my courses.
‐‐ Gertrude B. Elion
I loved to make a great defensive play, I'd rather do that than hit a home run.
‐‐ Bill Dickey
I loved to make people laugh in high school, and then I found I loved being on stage in front of people. I'm sure that's some kind of ego trip or a way to overcome shyness. I was very kind of shy and reserved, so there's a way to be on stage and be performing and balance your life out.
‐‐ Steve Martin
I loved to read, and I think any child who loves to read will read anything, including the back of the cereal box, which I did every morning.
‐‐ Judy Blume
I loved to read, and if I could've been a professional reader, that's probably what I would've wanted to be!
‐‐ Kathryn Lasky
I loved to read and to write, but then something happened. As I made my way through school, I kept getting handed books to read that didn't excite me and didn't even remotely connect to the realities of my life.
‐‐ R. A. Salvatore
I loved to read and would read anything that roused my interest, whether it was below my age level or above it, even if I could barely make sense of it.
‐‐ Mary Gaitskill
I loved to read, but I always thought that the dream was too far away. The person who had written the book was a god, it wasn't a person.
‐‐ Rita Dove
I loved to read, still do, and it seemed that the writing was a result of the love of books and reading and libraries.
‐‐ Adriana Trigiani
I loved to read when I was a kid, and as soon as I realized that an actual person got to make up the books I loved so much, I decided that that was the job for me.
‐‐ Margaret Haddix
I loved to sing and I loved to act, and I didn't want to continue opera because I wanted to act.
‐‐ Kelli O'Hara
I loved to watch cartoons and even made little stop-motion films in the backyard. At the time, I never really thought that it was something you could do for a living; it never actually hit me that people do that sort of thing or I would be capable of it.
‐‐ Eric Darnell
I loved to write; in my late teens I had a 'zine. But it wasn't until I went back to school, later on in my 20s, that I actually saw that I had writing talent.
‐‐ Sonja Sohn
I loved to write when I was a child. I wrote, but I always thought it was something that you did as a child, then you put away childish things.
‐‐ Rita Dove
I loved Transformers when I was a kid.
‐‐ Mike Shinoda
I loved 'Truly Madly Deeply' and all those 1990s romcoms because you had great actresses like Juliet Stevenson and Emma Thompson starting out.
‐‐ Helen George
I loved Veronica right off the bat. She was so strong and I think it is so important because there are so few shows that portray women, especially young women, as being strong and being able to stand up for themselves.
‐‐ Kristen Bell
I loved watching classics such as 'Casablanca' and goofball comedies such as 'How To Murder Your Wife' on WGN-TV.
‐‐ Richard Roeper
I loved watching so many of the great designers I've worked with do what they do. That's why I'm still loyal to the designers that I've known since I was 16.
‐‐ Naomi Campbell
I loved 'Welcome to the Dollhouse.' That was one of the most influential movies ever. You know that genre with the nerdy girl, and she redeems herself in the end. Like 'Napoleon Dynamite.' And in 'Welcome to the Dollhouse,' she doesn't. She sucks. It's like, that's what's real. That's what's heartbreaking.
‐‐ Jonathan Krisel
I loved Westerns as a little kid, and I loved horror films.
‐‐ Mel Brooks
I loved what I did. I could've been secretary of state for ever.
‐‐ Madeleine Albright
I loved what I did. I remember cruel mothers who would pinch their children to make them cry in a scene, but my mother encircled me with affection.
‐‐ Shirley Temple
I loved when my boyfriends would call me their Amazon girl.
‐‐ Patti Hansen
I loved when my dad was home. He liked to sit in the living room and watch boxing and baseball on TV. Or he'd be tinkering around or listening to records by his musician buddies - George Shearing, Oscar Peterson and the Jackie Gleason Orchestra.
‐‐ Natalie Cole
I loved when my folks would watch 'The Dean Martin Show.'
‐‐ Bonnie Hunt
I loved 'White Christmas' for the music aspect. I was into musical theater.
‐‐ Lana Parrilla
I loved Wimbledon and what it meant, but the surface felt uncomfortable. I just didn't like it, I was a hard-court guy, a Californian kid.
‐‐ Pete Sampras
I loved Woody Allen's short pieces. I was equally influenced by Woody Allen and Norman Mailer. I was very into this idea of being high-low, of being serious and intellectual but also making really broad jokes.
‐‐ Meghan Daum
I loved words. I love to sing them and speak them and even now, I must admit, I have fallen into the joy of writing them.
‐‐ Anne Rice
I loved working on '90210,' and I liked playing Ozzy because he was different from everybody else. And it was great because I got a great fan base.
‐‐ Michael Trevino
I loved working on 'Donnie Darko.' I learned a lot from the cast, Jake Gyllenhaal and the producers. I love doing what I do because I get to meet so many great people.
‐‐ Daveigh Chase
I loved working on 'Happy Gilmore' because I love to travel to new places and we got to go to British Columbia. Any Adam Sandler film is fun to work on because it is a reunion of the boys club of guys that have worked together in the past.
‐‐ Kevin Nealon
I loved working on Of Mice and Men. It was a wonderful group of people. John Malkovich is to me one of the best actors around right now-and a lot of fun to work with.
‐‐ Sherilyn Fenn
I loved working on 'The Flash.' I love the team there.
‐‐ Ciara Renee
I loved working on Wall Street. I loved the meritocracy of it and the camaraderie of the trading floor.
‐‐ Chelsea Clinton
I loved working with Bob Dylan.
‐‐ Benmont Tench
I loved working with Eric Close and J T Walsh.
‐‐ Jeri Ryan
I loved working with Jamie Lee Curtis, and I felt she was a wonderful actress even that early in her career.
‐‐ Donald Pleasence
