I was very shy. I'm still shy.
‐‐ Patti LaBelle
I was very shy when I was younger. But I did have a terrible temperament. I would get angry very quickly, but the rest of the time I was this big goofball, playing the drums in a band and making out with girls.
‐‐ Jeremy Renner
I was very skinny and very lanky and kind of awkward. In Puerto Rico, everybody is a little more voluptuous, with these beautiful bodies, and there I was, the skinny, lanky girl.
‐‐ Joyce Giraud
I was very skinny, braces; so I never thought I would be a model.
‐‐ Candice Swanepoel
I was very skinny, but that was just my natural build. I always ate sensibly - being thin was in my genes.
‐‐ Twiggy
I was very slender and small. All my friends were on the team, so I had to make it too. I was a very aggressive player. I wanted to be one of the best, but I just ended up as one of the good ones.
‐‐ Ed O'Neill
I was very slow in maths, geometry I actually enjoyed.
‐‐ Liam Neeson
I was very small, about 3 or 4 I think, and just wanted to be the people on telly telling these wonderful stories. Obviously the idea grew and matured with me but I can't ever remember wanting to do anything else. I've just sort of taken it for granted all my life that that was what I would do.
‐‐ David Tennant
I was very sorry when I found out that your intentions were good and not what I supposed they were.
‐‐ Sitting Bull
I was very spiritual as a kid. I think I felt and thought about things a lot more deeply than most of the other kids my age. I wanted to help people.
‐‐ Jake Epstein
I was very sporty at school, and sport was probably the thing I was best at, but my real passion was for fashion.
‐‐ Kirsty Gallacher
I was very stale at Fox. Much of it was my own fault. I was lazy and didn't fight for things I wanted to do at other times. Most of my stuff consisted of setup/punchline jokes to the camera - a very old-school approach. I was part of the establishment, I guess.
‐‐ Frank Caliendo
I was very strongly influenced by women's magazines and I really believed tha a woman could not be married and raise a family and have a successful career all at the same time.
‐‐ Helen Reddy
I was very studious.
‐‐ Kesha
I was very studious, too much. I would never go out at weekends. I was very serious. You should have seen me in class - I was blushing and sweating every time the teacher asked me something.
‐‐ Eva Green
I was very successful from a very early age, and I want to keep it.
‐‐ John Mayer
I was very superstitious when I was a teenager, and I had to fight against that because it made me feel anxious.
‐‐ Penelope Cruz
I was very sure I did not want to be the stereotype of what Indian people are seen as, which is Bollywood and henna. That's all great! It's what we are, and I love it. I love saris; I love music. I love henna; I love dancing, but that's not all we are.
‐‐ Priyanka Chopra
I was very surprised that for a while I could only get cast as straight. It was that way for a few years.
‐‐ Steve Buscemi
I was very surprised to get a reading for 'Arrested Development' because it really seemed to be the opposite of that which I was known for doing.
‐‐ Jason Bateman
I was very surprised when I heard that I had been chosen to receive the James Cardinal Gibbons Award.
‐‐ Aaron Neville
I was very thin, like a boy, and I was very un-sexy.
‐‐ Luise Rainer
I was very troubled, yes. Me and my brother both - we were troubled and troublemakers.
‐‐ Chloe Sevigny
I was very unfamiliar with YouTube; I thought it was the place for dog and cat videos.
‐‐ Lindsey Stirling
I was very unhappy about being killed off on 'Supernatural' in season 7.
‐‐ Jim Beaver
I was very unique as a child, dressed a certain way, acted a certain way, didn't fit in with everybody. So I immediately got picked on, especially around the age of 12 and 13, when you start going to junior high and start mingling with the older kids. To counteract that, strictly for self-defense, I wanted to get bigger.
‐‐ John Cena
I was very unmotivated at school.
‐‐ James Purefoy
I was very unsure about what I wanted to do in high school.
‐‐ Aaron Tveit
I was very, very eager to work. It's just the way I am.
‐‐ Phoebe Philo
I was very, very financially secure my whole life. I have been very lucky to say that.
‐‐ Brian Wilson
I was very, very fortunate. I knew that. I've always known that.
‐‐ Kim Wilde
I was very, very large as a kid and never athletic, and my home life was a little upside down and I never felt comfortable.
‐‐ Brad Garrett
I was very, very little - it was the first time I ever cooked on my own, with my mother's supervision - and I made scrambled eggs. I felt so accomplished, like magic!
‐‐ Gail Simmons
I was very, very quiet. I was always a loner, hardly spoke, and I was quite a nerd in school. So I was an outsider always.
‐‐ Shahzia Sikander
I was very, very religious. And of course I wrote about it in 'Night.' I questioned God's silence. So I questioned. I don't have an answer for that. Does it mean that I stopped having faith? No. I have faith, but I question it.
‐‐ Elie Wiesel
I was very, very shocked about Cooperstown. I thought my chances were fairly good, but I tried to stay low key about it, not too high and not too low. That was the way I played, too.
‐‐ Al Kaline
I was very, very shy as a younger girl, just petrified of people.
‐‐ Chris Evert
I was very, very shy in public and school, and quite loud and brash at home.
‐‐ Tuppence Middleton
I was very, very sick when I was growing up in Russia. The ambulance constantly came to our house. I had horrible asthma that is easily treated in America, but they didn't even have inhalers back in Russia.
‐‐ Gary Shteyngart
I was very, very thrown by the fact that I had to make some big changes in my life in order to be myself, but under this kind of movie-star banner.
‐‐ Kate Winslet
I was very vocal about what I wanted to do at a very young age. I wanted to be inside of the television set. I didn't know being on TV was being an actor.
‐‐ Bresha Webb
I was very willing to take on controversial roles that people didn't really want to look at.
‐‐ Rosie Perez
I was very young, and I kind of decided I wanted to do comedy. My parents were musicians, so we traveled on a tour bus. You're in a different town every night; as a kid, you're trying to make friends fast. You try to be funny.
‐‐ Trevor Moore
I was very young, and I remember this heated, passionate argument and trying to figure out some place called Vietnam, something called a Watergate, and some guy named Gerald Ford who my dad knew who had just become president, and how all these things fit together.
‐‐ Bill Huizenga
I was very young, and I was on vacation with my family, and there was a retrospective of old films, and one of them was 'The Phantom of the Opera' with Claude Rains that was in color. It was something very important for my career because I began to follow these stories that were morbid.
‐‐ Dario Argento
I was very young at the time, and I mainly appreciated their vocal qualities, even though I was already living as they did - as black performers in a white world.
‐‐ Bobby Short
I was very young. I thought I knew a lot and I really didn't. I trusted the wrong people.
‐‐ Tia Carrere
I was very young when I saw 'Gone With the Wind,' but I fell in love with Clark Gable. And when I got to work with him, I couldn't believe it. I still had a crush on him. He was quite an old man by then; he must have seen that I was head over heels, even though I was married.
‐‐ Carroll Baker
I was very young when we got married and I don't know why it worked out like it did or how I was smart enough to know that this was the right guy, but somehow I got lucky.
‐‐ Kyra Sedgwick
