One of the things that's always amazed me about people who attack me, saying I'm opposed to renewable energy, is I'm pretty sure I'm the only Republican who had an energy bill vetoed by a Republican governor.
‐‐ Cory Gardner
One of the things that's beautiful about New Orleans is how culturally rich we are and how well we have worked together. People call us a gumbo. It's really important that we get focused on the very simple notion that diversity is a strength, it's not a weakness.
‐‐ Mitch Landrieu
One of the things that's been crazy for us has been the speed at which news can break on Digg, because it's powered by a mass of humans versus a machine that has to go out and crawl and find the information and then determine its relevance mathematically.
‐‐ Kevin Rose
One of the things that's been nice about my career is that I've been able to do so many different things, and variety keeps your creative soul fulfilled. I'm constantly looking to find new things to do. It's just project to project for me. You never know where the next thing's going to come from.
‐‐ Drew Goddard
One of the things that's been really fun about my run on 'Swamp Thing' is putting him in all kinds of different locations around the world, and seeing how his exterior foliage changes based on his location.
‐‐ Charles Soule
One of the things that's clear to me from interviews that I've read is that the more popular successful jazz musicians had audiences above and beyond the music community.
‐‐ Branford Marsalis
One of the things that's difficult for people to understand is when you join the military, you don't sign up as an endorsement of any particular policy of the moment.
‐‐ Phil Klay
One of the things that's driving films in a particular direction is that the after market value of them is dropping really fast and in many segments of it, not just DVDs. Pay television is dropping.
‐‐ Lorenzo di Bonaventura
One of the things that's frustrated me as a deep-sea explorer is how many animals there probably are in the ocean that we know nothing about because of the way we explore the ocean.
‐‐ Edith Widder
One of the things that's fun about TV is it grows, and you set goals and aim towards stuff, and one of the writers has an idea, and you say, 'Ooh, that's so much cooler. Let's do that instead.' It's so much more fluid and organic that way, and that's the most fun part about it.
‐‐ Jed Whedon
One of the things that's great about doing a show over and over again... is that you have to find ways to make it spontaneous, as though everything is happening for the first time... to continue to mine the material and find new things.
‐‐ Bebe Neuwirth
One of the things that's great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education, academia, the service industry, arts, publishing, theater, politics, fashion, finance, as well as movie-making.
‐‐ Sarah Jessica Parker
One of the things that's, I think, hard in television is that there's a certain sameness to a lot of television because you're working in a very constricted box, and the box is defined by the amount of money you have to spend and the amount of time you have to get ready.
‐‐ Carlton Cuse
One of the things that's important about family is the narrative history they create for themselves.
‐‐ Gabe Newell
One of the things that's important for anybody adapting source material that is primarily a male buddy picture is to find ways to latch on to strong female characters in the piece and bring them to the forefront and celebrate their point of view alongside the men; otherwise, it becomes a sausage party, and it's a singular point of view.
‐‐ Bryan Fuller
One of the things that's influenced me musically was my experience at Brown University. I was surrounded by musicians that I really admired, and felt challenged to come up with music, lyrics, and recordings that stood up to the expectations of those musicians and myself.
‐‐ Lisa Loeb
One of the things that's interesting is that the PC has always had a huge amount of scalability. It was sort of the wild dog that moved into Australia and killed all the local life because it could just adapt. There used to be these dedicated devices, like dedicated word processors.
‐‐ Gabe Newell
One of the things that's interesting to me is I find things like caffeine and stunts actually relax me. When they're putting a bit of gel on my arm and lighting me on fire, or when I'm about to go into a high-speed car chase or rev a motorcycle up pretty fast, I find everything else around me slows down.
‐‐ Nicolas Cage
One of the things that's making ArcGIS come alive is apps. Apps are opening up the ArcGIS platform, making it available to everybody in your organization as well as to the public.
‐‐ Jack Dangermond
One of the things that's often forgotten about drug rehabilitation, it's not a destiny. It's a journey.
‐‐ Peter Hobson
One of the things that's particularly nefarious about Ebola is that it continues to live in a dead person for some period of time after death. A person who's been dead for a day or two may still be seething with Ebola virus.
‐‐ David Quammen
One of the things that's pretty unique about nu shu, when you look especially at these old letters and stories that have been saved, is that there are certain lines that are very standard that are used again and again. It's almost like a formula in a sense, so that these certain lines come up again and again.
‐‐ Lisa See
One of the things that's really important in 'Queen of the Night' is how people communicate with their clothes.
‐‐ Alexander Chee
One of the things that's really, really present in 'Between the World and Me' is, I am in some ways outside of the African-American tradition.
‐‐ Ta-Nehisi Coates
One of the things that seems absolutely clear to me about werewolves - with their canine makeup - is that they would be dogs, as it were.
‐‐ Glen Duncan
One of the things that sells music is when the artist is looked at as someone who's come up from the streets. Not just any streets, but the toughest, meanest streets of the urban ghetto. And that's called 'street credibility.'
‐‐ Geoffrey Canada
One of the things that separates a good genre movie from a bad genre movie, I always think, ironically, is when you care about the people. The dime a dozen ones are where you don't have any awareness of the character.
‐‐ Ethan Hawke
One of the things that strikes me is so many of the critics are people whose lifestyle doesn't change when the price of fuel changes, or if they keep a Wal-Mart store out of their area.
‐‐ Lee Scott
One of the things that struck me about the 1870s, which we still haven't nearly addressed, is what to do about the male-female divide. One of the forbidden topics is when men own up to the omnivorousness of their sexual interest and how to square that with being in love with an individual woman.
‐‐ Michel Faber
One of the things that takes a bit of getting used to on an American series is having a different director, and often writer, every week.
‐‐ Gina Bellman
One of the things that Teller and I are obsessed with, one of the reasons that we're in magic, is the difference between fantasy and reality.
‐‐ Penn Jillette
One of the things that the court held in Brown v. Board of Education is that government can't impose a badge of inferiority on some of its citizens. Yet that is exactly what Proposition 8 does with respect to gay and lesbian couples in California.
‐‐ David Boies
One of the things that ties people together, whether they live in a rural or urban area, is the really big number of people who have served in the military. Veterans issues are very important in the district.
‐‐ Pete Gallego
One of the things that ultimately led me to leave mathematics and go into political science was thinking I could prevent nuclear war.
‐‐ Paul Wolfowitz
One of the things that upset me was some of the criticism leveled at Simon and Garfunkel. I always took exception to it, but actually I agree with a lot of it.
‐‐ Paul Simon
One of the things that was a blessing for me is my parents were music lovers. Neither of my parents played an instrument, but they were avid record buyers. And I grew up at every age listening to all kinds of music.
‐‐ Gustavo Santaolalla
One of the things that was confusing about Limp Bizkit to some people is that our tastes were very different.
‐‐ Fred Durst
One of the things that was kind of shocking for humans... was to come to terms with was the fact that, hey, we may not be the center of the universe.
‐‐ Kevin J. Anderson
One of the things that was missing from the 2014 election was a Contract With America type of platform.
‐‐ Ron DeSantis
One of the things that was most shocking to me about starting to work in the funeral industry is just how industrial the environment is.
‐‐ Caitlin Doughty
One of the things that was probably to Dad's discredit was that he was never a fund-raiser. But he didn't live in an era of TV ads.
‐‐ Bob Latta
One of the things that was really an issue was I did not want to just be a woman secretary of state. I wanted to be a secretary of a state who was a woman, but not just chosen for that particular reason.
‐‐ Madeleine Albright
One of the things that we can say with confidence is that we will have much lighter, much stronger materials, and this will reduce the cost of air flight, and the cost of rockets.
‐‐ Ralph Merkle
One of the things that we have to keep in mind on Iran is Iran is also a country with ballistic missiles, cyber capabilities.
‐‐ Michael T. Flynn
One of the things that we hope to do with 'Pitchmen' is to give people an appreciation of what we do.
‐‐ Billy Mays
One of the things that we're all struggling with is how to judge the quality of the value-added experience of an educational course or year. I don't think it's impossible to do that, but it's difficult.
‐‐ Roy Romer
One of the things that we're trying to do with Creative Labs and all our experiences is explore things that aren't all tied to Facebook identity. Some things will be, but not everything will have to be, because there are some sets of experiences that are just better with other identities.
‐‐ Mark Zuckerberg
One of the things that would be great is to some day have so many women comedy writers that we wouldn't say there's just one type of female humor. There's lots.
‐‐ Mallory Ortberg
One of the things that would steer me away from a franchise is that I'm playing the same character all the time and I wouldn't want to be known for that.
‐‐ Saoirse Ronan
