To me, the good thing about living in L.A. is diversity in lifestyle choices, color, and religion.
‐‐ Sandra Bullock
To me, the great joy of writing is discovering. Most writers are told to write about what they know, but I still love the adventure of going out and reporting on things I don't know about.
‐‐ Tom Wolfe
To me, the greatest invention of my lifetime is the laptop computer and the fact that I can be working on a book and be in an airport lounge, in a hotel room, and continue working; I fire up my laptop, and I'm in exactly the same place I was when I left home - that, to me, is a miracle.
‐‐ Bill Bryson
To me, the greatest pleasure of writing is not what it's about, but the inner music that words make.
‐‐ Truman Capote
To me, the guitar is a tool for songwriting, and it's fun, too. The day that it's not fun, that's when I'm not gonna play guitar anymore.
‐‐ Scott Ian
To me, the highest expression of life is art with jokes. It's very rarified, very difficult to accomplish if you want to be more than just funny and more than just jokes about human gaseousness.
‐‐ Neil Peart
To me, the Holocaust stands alone as the most horrible human event in modern civilization.
‐‐ Robert Shapiro
To me, the hook of the riff is what makes a great guitar recording. It's the backbone of the whole song. When you have a strong riff, it's the rocket fuel for the track.
‐‐ Dwight Yoakam
To me, the horror genre is the genre of non-denial. It's about admitting that there is evil in the world and recognizing that there is evil within us and that we're not in control and that the things that we are afraid of must be confronted in order for us to relinquish that fear.
‐‐ Scott Derrickson
To me, the idea of heaven would give you certain pleasures, certain joys - but it's very important to have an intellectual understanding of why you want those things.
‐‐ Alice Sebold
To me, the idea of living this lifestyle is so boring that I would prefer to read Marcel Proust the whole time during a tour.
‐‐ Laurent Brancowitz
To me, the idea of success is to be able to work with people you admire.
‐‐ Xavier Dolan
To me, the idea that any kind of disaster helps create a nation seems a ridiculous one. There was no family in the house on the land next to me, and there might have been.
‐‐ Michael Winter
To me the interesting main character is never the one without flaws.
‐‐ J. J. Abrams
To me, the job of a playwright is to explore and bring to light our lives. You can't hold back; you have to give in to this. Sometimes, you say things people don't want to hear.
‐‐ Ted Lange
To me, the job of the artist is to provide a useful and intelligent vocabulary for the world to be able to articulate feelings they experience everyday, and otherwise wouldn't have the means to express in a meaningful and useful way.
‐‐ Mos Def
To me, the joy you're going to get in a 'Punisher' story is watching him punish incredibly wicked people. Now, if you can add to that an emotional content, wonderful.
‐‐ Greg Rucka
To me, the kitchen is a place of adventure and entirely fun, not drudgery. I can't think of anything better to do with family and friends than to be together to create something.
‐‐ Ted Allen
To me, the lyrics of the song define the kind of style it is.
‐‐ Elizabeth McGovern
To me, the machinima artform has essentially evolved now into the Let's Play streaming world. That's what it is: it's people performing and creating art using video games. It's just more personality-driven rather than story-driven these days.
‐‐ Burnie Burns
To me, the magic of photography, per se, is that you can capture an instant of a second that couldn't exist before and couldn't exist after. It's almost like a cowboy that draws his gun. You draw a second before or after, you miss and you're dead - not them. To me, photography's always like that.
‐‐ Mario Testino
To me, the main and most exciting thing about photography is to meet people. The picture is the result of what happened between me and them on the set.
‐‐ Francesco Carrozzini
To me, the mind and body are one. I'm very transparent, in a way, and people can very easily make out what mood I'm in.
‐‐ Deepika Padukone
To me, the money is - it's certainly a wonderful thing. But it is in direct proportion to how you're able to bless yourself and bless others with it.
‐‐ Oprah Winfrey
To me, the more bizarre the character, the more I'm attracted to it.
‐‐ James Marsden
To me, the more interesting villains are the ones you can, in some sense, relate to or sympathize with at times. Maybe you sympathize with them one moment; the next moment, they do something truly atrocious, and you feel bad you ever sympathized with them in the first place.
‐‐ Jason Aaron
To me, the most critical thing in agriculture is investing in the peasant agriculture, transforming peasant agriculture.
‐‐ Jakaya Kikwete
To me, the most emotional thing is to see regular people wearing our clothes. Yes, sometimes I see our clothes on somebody, and I think, 'No!', but you can't stop someone in the street and say, 'Please go home and change.'
‐‐ Domenico Dolce
To me, the most important thing in life is to be a human being. Second is acting.
‐‐ Peter Stormare
To me the most important thing is a good story, though I know how cliche that sounds.
‐‐ Josh Trank
To me, the most important thing is happiness.
‐‐ Sheryl Swoopes
To me, the most important thing is to tell a good story. If I can do that, I think that enlightenment, respect of nature, etc. follows.
‐‐ Kathryn Lasky
To me, the most important thing is to wear something that I love and feel comfortable in, and Christmas is a great opportunity to get one of my old favourites out.
‐‐ Amber Le Bon
To me the most important thing was stirring things up and scoring some runs so we could win a ballgame.
‐‐ Rickey Henderson
To me, the most interesting films are films that take very strong points of view and bang them up against each other and let sparks happen.
‐‐ Marshall Curry
To me, the most interesting part of 'True Blood' is that the entire crux of the show is based on identity and finding your true identity.
‐‐ Marshall Allman
To me, the most romantic gesture is a quiet night with my girl. I like to cook for her. I'm a meat eater and a griller - I do steaks, I do chicken, I do fish. I have a broad palate!
‐‐ Taylor Kinney
To me, the most worrisome part of traveling comes before any of the traveling actually occurs: the suitcase-packing process. It's a challenging and anxiety-filled process - I am caught between wanting my suitcase to be light and worrying I am going to need every single item in my bedroom.
‐‐ Laura Marano
To me, the musical is best when it's a musical comedy. So if you have a very, very funny show, and very good, funny songs, that's what the musical does best.
‐‐ Eric Idle
To me, the New Jersey law enforcement community, and many other Americans, one of the biggest impediments to improved relations between the United States and Cuba is the continued safe haven provided to the fugitive, Joanne Chesimard.
‐‐ Rodney Frelinghuysen
To me, the newspaper business was a way to learn about life and how things worked in the real world and how people spoke. You learn all the skills - you learn to listen, you learn to take notes - everything you use later as a novelist was valuable training in the newspaper world. But I always wanted to write novels.
‐‐ Carl Hiaasen
To me, the nicest luxury would be to have a room where I could keep all my books in one place - and have space for more.
‐‐ Annabelle Selldorf
To me, the noise of a threshing machine is better music than a lot of music I hear nowadays. I took a man's place in the threshing crew when I was only 14 years old.
‐‐ Clyde Tombaugh
To me the notion that Palestinians are actually Jews is, I think, quite revelatory and very radical and a possible bridge that has been ignored, I think, in this entire controversy and there's ample evidence to support it.
‐‐ Lawrence Wright
To me, the object of practicing is to allow you to play what you hear. But you're always hearing new things, so you never get to the end of it.
‐‐ David Sanborn
To me, the only good reason to be touring is if you still have something good to share instead of just revisiting past glories.
‐‐ John Darnielle
To me the only real star of the movie is the writer. And I work with writers very closely, from outline to first draft and on to the seventh draft, whatever it takes. Then my job is to support the director to make the best movie we can. Some producers try to go past them, but my job is to support them.
‐‐ Dino De Laurentiis
To me, the piano in itself is an orchestra.
‐‐ Cecil Taylor
To me, the print business model is so simple, where readers pay a dollar for all the content within, and that supports the enterprise.
‐‐ Dave Eggers
To me, the psychology behind the character is critical. So I work very hard to get into the mind of the man that I'm going to be playing, because number one, I want to understand why he's doing what he's doing. It's essential, it's absolutely essential.
‐‐ Andre Braugher
