One thing that bugs me in comedy is when somebody does a fake cry, you know, like they fake cry in a comedy. But in a drama they'll really cry. That bugs me.
‐‐ Sam Rockwell
One thing that changed when I moved upstate was that I became interested in different materials. I started making the stone benches because I was seeing rocks.
‐‐ Jenny Holzer
One thing that did get me into a lot of different types of music was when I was very young, the local record store went out of business and they were selling off all the vinyl. I remember going in - I was probably 16 or 17 and I'd just gotten a record player as a present. It was like hitting the jackpot: all these records for $3 apiece.

One thing that education can do is it can provide us with an opportunity to understand one another better, and so while I've spent a lot of my time in the world of politics, I've always felt that it is really not politics that will solve this for us.
‐‐ Condoleezza Rice
One thing that everybody told me about directing was, 'Never compromise'. And the whole job is a compromise. So it's very paradoxical. How do you not compromise when the whole thing is about compromise?
‐‐ Matt Dillon
One thing that feeds into the way you experience the social world is your mood - and one thing that affects your mood is the weather.
‐‐ Leonard Mlodinow
One thing that founders always underestimate is how hard it is to recruit.
‐‐ Sam Altman
One thing that God revealed to me is that we as Christians are going to have to get a portion of the media so that we can present the good news on a major basis the way that they're presenting the bad news on a major basis.
‐‐ Reggie White
One thing that golf teaches you is humility.
‐‐ Robert Wagner
One thing that happens when you're pregnant is that as your stomach starts to stretch. It itches! So I have to keep my belly really lubricated. Every morning, there's a buttering ceremony after I get out of the shower. It's really like basting a turkey with body butter.
‐‐ Padma Lakshmi
One thing that has become abundantly clear to me as I have advocated for the health and well-being of girls and women over the years is the innate power we each have within us to establish deep connection with one another and heal ourselves simply by sharing our stories.
‐‐ Christy Turlington
One thing that has made us so successful is that we've never taken outside investment. That means we can concentrate on what our customers want - not what the stockholders or the VCs want.
‐‐ Jack Dangermond
One thing that has really influenced me with Bowie where I've taken an approach from him is how he changes from album to album and has always modified his sound and his appearance. I think that's an important thing.
‐‐ Scott Weiland
One thing that hasn't changed, though, is that we still have to hear the new ad 2 or 3 times before it begins to affect us, even when we're already familiar with the advertiser in question and have a positive opinion of them.
‐‐ Roy H. Williams
One thing that helps to stretch me is to listen to other preacher's sermons. Every year, I will listen to at least ten other preachers, both to hear God speak to me, and also to evaluate their preaching to see what I can learn and how I can improve my own preaching.
‐‐ Adam Hamilton
One thing that humans still do better than computers is recognize images.
‐‐ Peter Diamandis
One thing that I always liked about fashion was that it was tied in with music and art and film.
‐‐ Tavi Gevinson
One thing that I always loved about, say, 'Raiders of the Lost Ark', is that Indiana Jones gets the Ark of the Covenant about sixty percent of the way through the movie. And then the rest of it is get-out-alive. To me, that's really cool. Because he's the one you care about at the end of the day.
‐‐ Graham Moore
One thing that I am proud of: I am really capable of laughing at myself.
‐‐ Penelope Cruz
One thing that I can't avoid the fact, because I am Thaksin's youngest sister.
‐‐ Yingluck Shinawatra
One thing that I can tell you that we have not done very well is to build in broadcast capability into the network, and we don't take advantage of broadcast radio.
‐‐ Vint Cerf
One thing that I discovered about myself is I really don't like traveling. I feel like it's a terrible personal failing, but I was so satisfied to arrive at the conclusion.
‐‐ Joshua Ferris
One thing that I do ask myself when I'm in the creative process is, 'Does the world need this?'
‐‐ John Zorn
One thing that I do find really sexy is a girl who's good at crossword puzzles.
‐‐ Chris Pine
One thing that I don't think my critics realize about me is that I've been trained to look adversity in the face.
‐‐ Reggie White
One thing that I feel very, very strongly is that we talk about Islamic countries, Islamic people, Islamic leaders, as either moderates or extremists. It's almost like there are only two categories of Muslims. And actually, that doesn't show respect. It shows lack of understanding of the diversity of Muslim thought.
‐‐ David Miliband
One thing that I get from a lot of people with 'American Gods' is people saying that they would love some kind of glossary with a list of all the Gods and who they are, so that they can look them up.
‐‐ Neil Gaiman
One thing that I had to remember in my personal journey in the music industry and coming up in the music industry was how many times I was told no. I was signed, I was dropped, I was signed, and I was put on a shelf.
‐‐ Kelly Rowland
One thing that I know and I feel Nigerians will celebrate is continuity and peace.
‐‐ Goodluck Jonathan
One thing that I learned is this - once a Braves fan, always a Braves fan. No matter what. And as a player, that means more than you could understand.
‐‐ Tim Hudson
One thing that I miss because we spend a lot of time in America is English food, like cooked breakfast and Sunday dinners.
‐‐ Louis Tomlinson
One thing that I notice that is changing, you don't see kids on Sunday. Most of them are home. The kids are having much more virtual childhoods instead of childhoods. They don't play ball or hang out with the wrong people or get in fistfights, all the things that once made childhood. I don't know how it's going to turn out.
‐‐ Pete Hamill
One thing that I noticed is having met some former Taliban is even they, as children, grew up being indoctrinated. They grew up in violence. They grew up in war. They were taught to hate. They were, they grew up in very ignorant cultures where they didn't learn about the outside world.
‐‐ Greg Mortenson
One thing that I pride myself on is, everything that I do is completely legit. We go through every channel, and do it the proper way.
‐‐ Nik Wallenda
One thing that I really like to do is, I'll look in the mirror, and I'll imagine that I'm rapidly aging, until I'm just a skull.
‐‐ Anna Akana
One thing that I tell people all the time is, 'I'm not going to answer a call from you after nine o'clock at night or before nine o'clock in the morning unless it's an emergency.'
‐‐ Brene Brown
One thing that I think never goes out of style is just purity. Niceness and purity. And the Muppets have never lost that. Kermit especially is just wide-eyed wonder, unblinking. And he can't blink. Which I think probably helps.
‐‐ Jason Segel
One thing that I think works in 'Casablanca' and which I've lectured a lot about - in terms of what I've been trying to achieve as a designer - is the film's creation of its own form of reality.
‐‐ Ken Adam
One thing that I would like the market to appreciate more is the difference between Disney and other media companies.
‐‐ Thomas O. Staggs
One thing that improved my cooking skills was being a poor student in California... If you don't have much money, you have to learn to cook.
‐‐ Diane Mott Davidson
One thing that in my reporting that I found and was amazed to find was that, as far as I could determine, neither high-level White House officials in the Bush administration nor even the top brass at the CIA even knew the history of water boarding when they approved it.
‐‐ Scott Shane
One thing that is almost always said to me is, I grew up with you. They are meeting me and feel that they actually grew up with me. I was with them during their play hours and thinking hours. I was a part of their childhoods. That's one of the most amazing things.
‐‐ Mark Goddard
One thing that is constantly on my iPod is India Arie - I like her a lot; I listen to her a lot. I think she is just a spectacular artist.
‐‐ Audra McDonald
One thing that is exciting about fashion is the surprise element. People don't know what they want. They just know when they see it.
‐‐ Marc Jacobs
One thing that is likely to make you lose touch is if you keep in touch with the past too much.
‐‐ John Hurt
One thing that is not to be underestimated is American culture's influence on the rest of the world.
‐‐ Yael Stone
One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape... it allows us to fix our emotions on events at the moment they occur, it permits a union of heart and mind and tongue and tear.
‐‐ Marilyn French
One thing that makes France different from other countries is the tradition of social solidarity. People from all backgrounds and political positions are willing to contribute for services and protection of society as a whole - but on the condition that money is being spent effectively and that everyone is paying their part.
‐‐ Francois Hollande
One thing that makes me very happy is to have a complicated idea and to feel that I've expressed myself clearly. I remember writing the ending to 'Happier at Home.' I wrote the entire book to build to that ending 'now is now,' and what I had to say was very abstract, and yet I felt satisfied that I managed to say what I wanted to say.
‐‐ Gretchen Rubin
One thing that makes me very happy is to see the growing activism among chefs in America. Chefs like Tom Colicchio, Bill Telepan, and Rachel Ray and food writers like Michael Pollan have gone to Congress, indeed sometimes even have testified before Congress, have lent this support to Mrs. Obama's effort to combat childhood obesity.
