I turn up in Los Angeles every now and then, so I can get some big money films in order to finance my smaller money films.
‐‐ John Hurt
I turned 24 in the middle of my first World Cup and it was quite an unbelievable experience. It's really hard for words to do it justice.
‐‐ Cobi Jones
I turned 40, got married, got a kid, and my mother passed away. I experienced life and death, with the enjoyment of creating life and the loss, within one year.
‐‐ Daniel Wu
I turned 40 on the set of the reunion show for 'Sheer Genius,' so it wasn't a hideous birthday because I had everyone on the cast and crew sing 'Happy Birthday' to me, and I won $10,000 for being the fan favorite. It was really liberating to turn 40 and realize that I felt very comfortable with myself and knew who I was.
‐‐ Tabatha Coffey
I turned 54 this year and I find myself feeling like I'm in a bit of a race to get down on paper the way I really feel about life - or the way it has presented to me. And because it has presented to me very beautifully, this is hard. It is technically very hard to show positive manifestations.
‐‐ George Saunders
I turned 65 last year, and each year I get more and more interested in human health. For most people it happens around age 50, but I've always been a slow learner. It's critical in terms of the cost of health care.
‐‐ Craig Venter
I turned a lot of people in white America - and not just white America, but middle-class America - into hip-hoppers, you know?
‐‐ Vanilla Ice
I turned atheist in the '90s when India went through troubled times - communal riots, bomb blasts... Mumbai, where I live, was badly affected. I blamed religion; also, extremists on both sides - right and left.
‐‐ Amish Tripathi
I turned Compaq from a small company with troubles into a computer powerhouse. We can do the same at Intershop.
‐‐ Eckhard Pfeiffer
I turned down a lot of easier opportunities in order to go for the things that I really and ultimately wanted to do. And what's really nice is that it's starting to work. I've been an actor for coming up on 14 years now and the level of activity that's taking place now is a culmination of a slow cooker approach to as opposed to a microwave.
‐‐ David Oyelowo
I turned down a lot of films.
‐‐ Francesca Annis
I turned down a lot of things that were so-called commercial. You're coming out of one film, and then they want you to be in the same one.
‐‐ Robin Wright
I turned down a movie this summer because it was nine weeks in Vancouver and my oldest daughter is 14. I've got four more summers with her. I'm not giving away nine weeks of her summer to go do a silly movie.
‐‐ Jeff Foxworthy
I turned down a scholarship to Yale. The problem with college is that there's a tendency to mistake preparation for productivity. You can prepare all you want, but if you never roll the dice you'll never be successful.
‐‐ Shia LaBeouf
I turned down all the requests for the rights to the books, for years, mostly because they wanted the rights to the characters, and to turn it into a TV series. This would have allowed them to do anything they wanted with the characters, and that just wasn't an option for me.
‐‐ Louise Penny
I turned down as many roles that I thought were beyond my abilities as I did ones I thought weren't good enough.
‐‐ Joel McCrea
I turned down dates because I dreaded sitting in front of a plateful of food.
‐‐ Markie Post
I turned down 'Harry Potter' and 'Spider-Man,' two movies that I knew would be phenomenally successful, because I had already made movies like that before and they offered no challenge to me. I don't need my ego to be reminded.
‐‐ Steven Spielberg
I turned down many chances to be on TV before 'Pop Idol' because I really wasn't interested in being famous. I didn't need it and didn't want it.
‐‐ Simon Cowell
I turned down one of the big young adult franchises.
‐‐ Douglas Booth
I turned down plenty of films which proved to be hugely successful. And, of course, I've also had plenty of experiences where everyone thought we were doing brilliant work and it ended up pretty horrific. Same as any actor, really.
‐‐ Ewen Bremner
I turned down 'Some Like It Hot.' See how smart I am? I felt I couldn't bring anything funny to it. The outfit was funny. I don't need to compete with the wardrobe.
‐‐ Jerry Lewis
I turned down some movies that were quite good. mainly on the basis of taste.
‐‐ Dick Van Dyke
I turned down the first script offered to me, and the second. I lay on my back one day under an umbrella, in the garden, reading the third, and wondered why I had turned down the first.
‐‐ Conrad Veidt
I turned down the opportunity to be in some films that went on to be blockbusters.
‐‐ Elizabeth McGovern
I turned down twelve films last year... Huge money films, but I had no respect for the writer or the work.
‐‐ Shia LaBeouf
I turned everybody on so, psychologically, I guess I was pushing the boundaries creativity.
‐‐ Jim Capaldi

‐‐ Marina and the Diamonds
I turned on VH1 this morning just to get a little warm-up before I came over here, and I think it's just terrific. There's so much great stuff: diverse and wonderful music, good performances, great looking girls, great videos, the whole thing.
‐‐ Debbie Harry
I turned pro and won Rookie of the Year on the South African Tour and then it took me two tries at the qualifying school on the European Tour and to get my card and the rest is history.
‐‐ Retief Goosen
I turned the Gloucester Christmas lights on and our local Newent lights on, so everyone recognises me now. It is a completely different life for me.
‐‐ Charlotte Dujardin
I turned to music originally because of my past and needing a release or an outlet to get out anger or frustration or hurt.
‐‐ Christina Aguilera
I turned to my mom and said, 'I'm going to be a martial arts movie star.' She didn't believe me, and neither did my dad. They both thought I would grow out of it. That it was a phase. I decided then I was going to do it or die trying.
‐‐ Scott Adkins
I turned to the novel, an artistic form which had in former days been neglected and had thus acquired a bad reputation, but which during the nineteenth century had developed and elevated itself to the ranks occupied by drama and the ancient epic.
‐‐ Henrik Pontoppidan
I turned up my nose at yoga for years. I was a rugby player growing up. But now I know. When I'm on those long international flights, like 22 hours from L.A. to Sydney, I'll get up sometimes and do yoga in the aisle just to stretch out a little bit.
‐‐ Jason O'Mara
I tweet 15 times a day to keep my brain stimulated.
‐‐ Alejandro Jodorowsky
I tweet from bed. I love it because it's so quick. And it's funny. But it also leaves a lot of room for error because new people don't sense the sarcasm - there's no sarcasm font.
‐‐ Christine Teigen
I tweet in the morning and the evening. To write 12 hours a day, there is a moment when you're really tired. It's my relaxing time.
‐‐ Paulo Coelho
I tweet myself and do all the Facebook updates. It started off with me wondering whether I was showing off and I was very careful about what I wrote.
‐‐ Prabal Gurung
I Tweeted Keri Hilson the other day and she actually wrote back! I was so excited.
‐‐ Kevin Durant
I tweeted once, and I still stick to this, that I would love to marry a Croatian girl. I want my children to speak Croatian first, and for them to do that, we need someone who speaks very good Croatian.
