One of the things I enjoy is the challenge of Mother Nature.
‐‐ Nik Wallenda
One of the things I enjoy most about writing historical romance is researching inspiring backgrounds and settings.
‐‐ Nicola Cornick
One of the things I enjoy most during the World Cup is watching a team improve, mature, and gel during the course of the tournament.
‐‐ Rabih Alameddine
One of the things I enjoy the most is fishing.
‐‐ Henry Paulson
One of the things I enjoyed when working in manga was when I couldn't tell where anything was going because there weren't narrative tropes and structures I was used to. After doing it for seven years, I got to the point where I did see structures. I did start to learn, but at first I didn't know where it was going. It was very exciting for me.
‐‐ Kelly Sue DeConnick
One of the things I expect Mr. Trump would look for in a vice president is discretion.
‐‐ Michael T. Flynn
One of the things I feel very strong about is the achievement of the Band really being a complete band.
‐‐ Robbie Robertson
One of the things I find about acting is that the less the audience knows about the actor, the more they're able to believe in him in the role.
‐‐ Hayden Christensen
One of the things I find depressing about some of the upper echelons of Anglicanism on both sides of the Atlantic is that it's sort of taken for granted that we all basically know what's in the Bible, and so we just glance at a few verses for devotional purposes and then get on to the real business.
‐‐ N. T. Wright
One of the things I find exciting about Joan of Arc is how clearly the story of her life reveals the creation of myth, a process in which every one of us is involved - every one of us who tells stories and all those who listen, each informing the other.
‐‐ Kathryn Harrison
One of the things I find extremely challenging about the continent of Africa is that when the immediate needs and the social needs of people are not met, that kills dreams, and it's all about survival.
‐‐ Djimon Hounsou
One of the things I find in writing about people who are dead is that, after a short or long time, no matter how close the relationship was, they become like characters in fiction.
‐‐ Michael Lindsay-Hogg
One of the things I find really hard and view as a massive drag... is that I'm losing my ability to be completely anonymous.
‐‐ Alexander Karp
One of the things I find very difficult about theatre is the repetition - that something can slide away from your original intentions.
‐‐ Ben Whishaw
One of the things I find very little of in America - and certainly not on Broadway - are plays with political attitudes.
‐‐ Michael Lindsay-Hogg
One of the things I get amused by is when my opponent talks about the middle class.
‐‐ Scott Walker
One of the things I give Nancy Pelosi a lot of credit for is that she's able to get things passed and hold her members together because she shows us that she's doing everything possible to get our views into these bills.
‐‐ Peter Welch
One of the things I had a hard time getting used to when I came to California in '78 was Santa Claus in shorts.
‐‐ Dennis Franz
One of the things I had to learn as a writer was to trust the act of writing. To put myself in the position of writing to find out what I was writing.
‐‐ E. L. Doctorow
One of the things I had to really work on is, when you're the leader of an organization, people look at the expression on your face. Your mood has a lot to do with how people think the whole organization is doing.
‐‐ Jim Yong Kim
One of the things I have always enjoyed about Scientology is their proactive approach to journalists who are covering them.
‐‐ Louis Theroux
One of the things I have an allergic reaction to playing, especially as a black actor, is the mandatory kind of best friend/cop/detective type. You will never see me in that movie.
‐‐ David Oyelowo
One of the things I have been preaching around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner, especially from the elites.
‐‐ Hillary Clinton
One of the things I have tried to do with this book and with all of them really is avoid that simple, easy, reductionist view of motivation and to show we do things for a complex net of reasons, a real braid of reasons.
‐‐ Russell Banks
One of the things I haven't been ready for is how male-dominated the music industry is. I just didn't have a clue.
‐‐ Laura Mvula
One of the things I keep coming back to in my writing is that society doesn't work on this mirror principle, you don't have an exact replica on the left of what you have on the right. It just doesn't work that way.
‐‐ Thomas Frank
One of the things I learned as a young semiotics nerd was that if you have plot moving forward, no matter how banal the facts of it, simply the fact that the plot is rolling forward makes you wonder what's going to happen next, which creates suspense. So you can control peoples' attention simply by having things move forward in a story.
‐‐ Ira Glass
One of the things I learned from my father, and it did not serve me well at all, was that he was a successful writer, he earned a living. And it was a shock for me to find out that it was actually hard to make a living as a writer.
‐‐ Michael Tolkin
One of the things I learned from working on the Olympics was, the world does not need another big multimedia show.
‐‐ Laurie Anderson
One of the things I learned in animation is that you never, ever want to start doing a voice that you can't sustain for four straight hours.
‐‐ Pamela Adlon
One of the things I learned in editing 'The Reagan Diaries' is to never say what Reagan would do, because he surprised people.
‐‐ Douglas Brinkley
One of the things I learned in law school is that there's nothing wrong or undesirable or dishonorable or destructive about amending the Constitution.
‐‐ Adrian Cronauer
One of the things I learned in 'Slavs!' is that it's much easier to talk about being gay than it is to talk about being a socialist. People are afraid of socialism, and plays that deal with economics are scarier to them.
‐‐ Tony Kushner
One of the things I learned is that you've got to deal with the underlying social problems if you want to have an impact on crime - that it's not a coincidence that you see the greatest amount of violent crime where you see the greatest amount of social dysfunction.
‐‐ Eric Holder
One of the things I learned, one of the strangest things, is how to think. There was nothing else to do. I couldn't see people, or go for a walk in the forest. All I had was my head and my books, and I thought a lot.
‐‐ Abraham Pais
One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself.
‐‐ Lucille Ball
One of the things I learned very early on is you need to cast the kids for the characters you want them to play. They need to be who they are, right? If you want a loud, boisterous kid character, you need to find that kid.
‐‐ James Wan
One of the things I learnt over the years is that there is a craft to writing, like there is a craft to acting. I hadn't done my apprenticeship as a writer. I did try to be a writer for hire but I'm not any good at it.
‐‐ Lennie James
One of the things I like about a character: I always think it's fascinating when a character can turn on a dime and go from one emotion to another. I like watching that.
‐‐ Albert Brooks
One of the things I like about acting is that, in a funny way, I come back to myself.
‐‐ Bill Murray
One of the things I like about doing historical films is drawing the line between now and then.
‐‐ James Purefoy
One of the things I like about music is it's an abstract art, totally abstract, where you can convey an emotion, which I find amazing.
‐‐ Bernard Sumner
One of the things I like about performing on the stage is that it is a kind of meditative experience. Time does stand still. You have no concept or feeling of the passing of two or three hours' time. It's all kind of one present moment, which is a kind of a description of meditation.
‐‐ Michael Emerson
One of the things I like about the computer that I use is that I can write a program on it or I can download a program on to it and run it. That's kind of important to me, and that's also kind of important to the whole future of the internet... obviously a closed platform is a serious brake on innovation.
‐‐ Tim Berners-Lee
One of the things I like about the Internet is it does force us to realize we're all humans, and it forces us to look at the pattern of people, not one moment.
‐‐ David Sze
One of the things I like about when I tour sometimes is that occasionally you'll see a dad there with his 12-year-old son and they're both enjoying it.
‐‐ Tim Vine
One of the things I like best about 'Biggest Loser' is being around people who are trying to make the right choices. When you feel defeated about your weight and your health, like there's no hope, and you still make the choice to fight for it, to make the change happen no matter what people say or think, that's inspiring to me.
‐‐ Alison Sweeney
One of the things I like best about the Halloween show is that I change outfits about six times in the show. It is a lot of fun to play the different characters.
‐‐ Nancy Kerrigan
One of the things I like enormously about Bob Weinstein is that that he's the only studio head I have ever known who will change his mind and say he was wrong.
‐‐ Dean Koontz
One of the things I like to do during an 'overhaul' revision is bust out my highlighters and colored pens. Tools like these make me feel like a real writer.
‐‐ Lisa Graff
One of the things I liked about my character in 'Run' is that she can just disappear into the background if she wants, which is what I'm like.
‐‐ Katie Leung
One of the things I liked about playing Tony Gates in 'Line of Duty' was that I don't think he gave much thought to justifying his actions until he was under investigation.
‐‐ Lennie James
