On a scale of one to 10, I'd rate my body confidence as a good seven. Everyone has their hang-ups, but I see my body as a training tool and I feel good about it.
‐‐ Jessica Ennis
On a scale of one to 10, I feel I'm at a nine because there's definitely room for improvement. I know I could go further.
‐‐ Maddie Ziegler
On a scale of the United States, the Hollywood influence on what comes out, that's not the majority views of across the country. What we read in Us Weekly or People magazine, or Entertainment Tonight, it's not what the majority of the country is thinking.
‐‐ Kid Rock
On a school day, I practice for two hours and more than half a day on weekends.
‐‐ Guan Tianlang
On a sea floor that looks like a sandy mud bottom, that at first glance might appear to be sand and mud, when you look closely and sit there as I do for a while and just wait, all sorts of creatures show themselves, with little heads popping out of the sand. It is a metropolis.
‐‐ Sylvia Earle
On a selfish basis, I really enjoy sports and activity.
‐‐ Alan Thicke
On a serious level, I wouldn't tell the press if I was in a relationship or not. I wouldn't ever reveal that, because it takes you down a certain road... I have no desire to be courting the press with my love life.
‐‐ Kit Harington
On a shelf above my computer are five letters that spell out W-R-I-T-E. Just in case I forget why I'm there. I also have 'Wonder Woman' paraphernalia from when I wrote five issues of the comic, and pictures of my husband and kids.
‐‐ Jodi Picoult
On a ship, everything is enclosed: the people are right on top of each other and can't get up and walk away.
‐‐ Patrick O'Brian
On a show like 'Oz,' I was wearing Dickies and a cut-off shirt and a gold cross.
‐‐ Dean Winters
On a single day, I read articles where I was described as being alternately 'lanky,' 'pudgy,' 'doughy,' 'balding,' 'utterly forgettable,' and 'constantly irritating.'
‐‐ Stephen Tobolowsky
On a smash TV series, you make much more money than you ever can in a movie. Do you know how much more Bill Cosby will make than Spielberg? The money for successful television is unbelievable.
‐‐ Lee Rich
On a soap, happiness never lasts for very long!
‐‐ Chandler Massey
On a spiritual level, it's as though with my sighted eye I see what's before me, and with my unsighted eye I see what's hidden. It's illuminated life more than darkened it.
‐‐ Alice Walker
On a standard space shuttle crew, two of the astronauts have a test pilot background - the commander and the pilot.
‐‐ Sally Ride
On a studio film, you don't have to worry about running out of film or messing up your costumes; you have five other sets of it. Studio films make you the most comfortable so you can just act.
‐‐ Sung Kang
On a submicro scale, pure diamond is billions of billions of carbon atoms bonded to one another. If you shrunk yourself down and stood inside the diamond, you'd see nothing but carbon in a perfect pattern in every direction.
‐‐ Sam Kean
On a summer night it can be lovely to sit around outside with friends after dinner and, yes, read poetry to each other. Keats and Yeats will never let you down, but it's differently exciting to read the work of poets who are still walking around out there.
‐‐ Michael Cunningham
On a television show, you basically make a movie a week. Movies take three months - it's crazy. They're so slow, it's like vacation to me.
‐‐ Eva Longoria
On a Terrence Malick set, your thoughts are his voice. You think you're thinking, but actually he's thinking for you. He speaks to you, and he's the voice in your mind.
‐‐ Olga Kurylenko
On a transcendental level, a film is not going to be better or worse because there's a prize behind it. The work will be what it is, with or without a prize.
‐‐ Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
On a Tuesday, September 11th, 1973, we had the military coup in Chile that forced me to leave my country eventually. And then, on a Tuesday, September 11th, 2001, we had the terrorist attack in the United States.
‐‐ Isabel Allende
On a TV show, you don't know where the character is going.
‐‐ Matthew Morrison
On a two week road trip I know I can get by better with no underwear than no laptop.
‐‐ Curt Schilling
On a very basic, concrete level, there have been times when my work, regardless of the content, has harmed relationships because I made that work such a primary priority in my life.
‐‐ Adrian Tomine
On a very basic level, many people think celebrities have too much already, so we shouldn't be entitled to our political opinions.
‐‐ Barbra Streisand
On a very gloomy dismal day, just such a one as it ought to be, I went to see Westminster Abbey.
‐‐ Karl Philipp Moritz
On a very local scale, a refrigerator is the center of the universe. On the inside is food essential to life, and on the outside of the door is a summary of the life events of the household.
‐‐ Robert Fulghum
On a very long and very high wire, I will not hope to not be blown off by high winds. I will have the certitude that such could not happen.
‐‐ Philippe Petit
On a very personal level, I have fond memories of spending a lot of time in the Library of Congress working on my collection of poems 'Native Guard.' I was there over a summer doing research in the archives and then writing in the reading room at the Jefferson building.
‐‐ Natasha Trethewey
On a very small scale, I kind of understand why the directors that I work with do certain things. I don't consider myself an incredible director. I'm not ready to do movies by any means. But, I feel like I can be a better actress now that I've been on the other side and kind of understand the process and more of the technical aspects of it.
‐‐ Hayley Kiyoko
On a very, very basic level, I'm definitely pro market because with the market comes the idea of the individual and the idea of specialisation, and I personally like being an individual and choosing my interactions. I don't see culture moving away from that, like back to a farming society. You couldn't do that with the amount of people we have.
‐‐ Tino Sehgal
On a visit to Cologne in March 1945, after a heavy bombing, I met hundreds and hundreds of deserters who were squatting in the rubble, many in the deep cellars left from Roman times. They had been hiding there after the retreat from France.
‐‐ Heinrich Boll
On acoustic guitar I tend to stay in the key of D for some reason. On electric guitar I keep basic: C, G, D, and A. The key of D minor is also real good for me.
‐‐ Tommy Shaw
On Ain't No Telling I came up with the bass solo.
‐‐ Noel Redding
On all open platforms, regardless of whether it's Facebook or the Apple App Store, the largest segment is entertainment and games. It's the largest revenue segment. And it's the same for Tencent.
‐‐ Ma Huateng
On all the 'Housewives' shows, there's always some wannabe wife who's always sticking her head in.
‐‐ Danielle Schneider
On all the peaks lies peace.
‐‐ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
On almost anything someone does in the computer business, you can go back in the literature and prove someone had done it earlier.
‐‐ Ken Olsen
On almost every environmental issue I care about, in fact, I've been wrong at one point or another. I used to think that climate change was no big deal, that most environmental problems were massive exaggerations, that oil reserves were effectively unlimited, and more.
‐‐ Ramez Naam
On 'America's Next Top Model,' I mentor girls on television. When that TV goes off, I actually mentor other girls in the modeling industry - girls that have not been on 'Top Model,' but who appear in 'Vogue' worldwide.
‐‐ Tyra Banks
On 'America's Top Model,' I've always told my girls to smile with their eyes. We call it 'smizing.' Over the years, it's actually become part of pop culture. I would be walking down the street, and girls would say, 'Smize!'
‐‐ Tyra Banks
On 'American Gladiators,' I got to pummel a lot of people off a pyramid with a giant Q-tip. It was so much fun to wrestle people with no risk of getting knocked out or choked out.
‐‐ Gina Carano
On 'American Top 40' the Kasem voice soared and swooped, like an expert aural acrobat, through promos, jingles and dedications, usually rising to a dramatic peak for the top-selling song of the week.
‐‐ Richard Corliss
On American TV, there just aren't a lot of female leads in comedy, especially at the peak of all the Judd Apatow stuff.
‐‐ Alia Shawkat
On an animated television series, you pretty much read the script as written. Whereas on an animated feature, you'll sometimes record the same scene multiple times over the course of a year as the filmmakers continue to tweak that part of the movie.
‐‐ Eric Stonestreet
On an average day, I have two things to read in my purse: a book and a play.
‐‐ Morgan Saylor
On an average day, I spend 12 hours listening to music. Very little writing.
‐‐ Michel Faber
On an average day, I will spend 90 percent of my waking moments working on 'Superwoman.' I'm a huge workaholic. My hobby is 'Superwoman.'
‐‐ Lilly Singh
On an average day, we allow ourselves the fiction that we own a piece of our workplace. That's part of what it takes to get the job done. Deeper down, we know it's all on loan.
‐‐ Mary Schmich
On an awards-show day, I can play basketball, go in, take a shower and put on a tux - it takes me three minutes to put on a tux - and be out the door in 15 minutes.
