A lot of equipment can get in the way of the connection with food, with touching and feeling.
‐‐ Alice Waters
A lot of executives act like their time is worth more than anyone else's. But I always respect an employee who guards his or her time, even from me.
‐‐ Eli Broad
A lot of exercise is mindless; you can have music or the radio on and not be aware. But if you're aware in anything you do - and it doesn't have to be yoga - it changes you. Being present changes you.
‐‐ Mariel Hemingway
A lot of factors go into choosing a vice-presidential nominee.
‐‐ Marco Rubio
A lot of factors go into the longevity of a show.

A lot of feature films do two pages a day.
‐‐ Timothy Bottoms
A lot of female comedians will go up there in a sweatshirt and Converses, trying to dress themselves down, because it is sort of a boy's club. I'll go up in my heels. I like that people don't think I'll be funny. I'll take that on. I don't do standup comedy - I do standup and I do comedy, but I don't go up there and do jokes.
‐‐ Carly Craig
A lot of film directors are quite scared of actors. They are a bit of a nightmare sometimes, but I like them. It looks like cunning, but you try to get extra things from them all the time, by stealth, by making them feel confident, so they trust you and you can push a bit.
‐‐ Danny Boyle
A lot of film stars are just playing themselves in different frocks.
‐‐ Imelda Staunton
A lot of filmmakers from my generation were lucky enough to have their work more or less perpetuated by people who saw them originally on TV and on HBO and certainly on home video.
‐‐ Joe Dante
A lot of filmmakers hate testing movies. I love it because it's an audience medium. The biggest problem has been the prevalence of all these Internet sites. It's almost impossible to have a test screening without it leaking out on the Internet.
‐‐ Jonathan Mostow
A lot of filmmaking is an endurance contest between you and the people you're filming. Every time that you relax, I promise you, something interesting will happen.
‐‐ Marshall Curry
A lot of films come out before they're finished.
‐‐ Ed Harris
A lot of films made me love the movies, everything from Hitchcock to Godard. But the ones that really grabbed me were Costa-Gavras's films like 'Z' and 'State of Siege.'
‐‐ Paul Haggis
A lot of films need planning in order to survive at all. It's part of the dog and pony show.

A lot of first novels are coming-of-age stories. A lot are autobiographical.
‐‐ Stacey D'Erasmo
A lot of first-time filmmakers are almost apologizing for their movie by saying, 'Well, we only had 18 days to shoot, you know.'
‐‐ Mark Waters
A lot of folks are still demanding more evidence before they actually consider Iraq a threat. For example, France wants more evidence. And you know I'm thinking, the last time France wanted more evidence they rolled right through Paris with the German flag.
‐‐ David Letterman
A lot of folks believe their best years are behind them. But I want Americans to recognize that's not true.
‐‐ Mehmet Oz
A lot of folks feel like my brother and me or other politicians chart out their careers from Day 1 until the end. I've never been like that.
‐‐ Joaquin Castro
A lot of food criticism has a similar flavor to it, and I'm probably going to write about it in a different way.
‐‐ Alex Kapranos
A lot of food shows need only to tempt. Some food shows only need to inspire, to empower. And there are a lot of shows that do that.
‐‐ Alton Brown
A lot of football success is in the mind. You must believe you are the best and then make sure that you are.
‐‐ Bill Shankly
A lot of foreign people say, when asking about eating habits, 'What is your guilty pleasure?' I have no guilt. Whatever I do, I enjoy and it's the point. I think if you start to feel guilty about it, that's a problem. So, no guilty pleasures. I have pleasure and no guilt at all.
‐‐ Eric Ripert
A lot of fun stuff happens when you go out on a bike compared to when you're in a car. You're more in the environment. It's enjoyable. Even when It's raining It's still fun.
‐‐ Stone Gossard
A lot of funny stuff happens in Canada.
‐‐ Samantha Bee
A lot of gay men are in delusion if they think they're super macho.
‐‐ Scott Thompson
A lot of gay men have a lot of sex. That's what we do. But I've stopped all that-the revolving door into my bedroom. Promiscuity. That was of its day, really.
‐‐ Julian Clary
A lot of geeks are pale, bespectacled, wear dark clothing and don't get out much - the stereotype exists because it is very often true. I could pass for a non-geek but it would be inaccurate.
‐‐ China Mieville
A lot of genetic testing hasn't been integrated into healthcare because it has been expensive. I want to make people realise that they have the ability to be in charge of their own health.
‐‐ Anne Wojcicki
A lot of girls annoy me who go to university - one girl told me she was going to Oxford because it was something to do between leaving school and getting married. And I've got to pay for that being an income tax payer.
‐‐ Jeffrey Bernard
A lot of girls ask for advice on how to get into acting, and I'm kind of the worst person to ask, because it just kind of fell in my lap... I was just in the right place at the right time.
‐‐ Alexis Bledel
A lot of girls in L.A. just stand in the corner wondering 'Who's gonna talk to me? Who am I gonna diss?'

‐‐ Robert Hurt
A lot of great authors are published before their time. That's not wrong; it's just the way it works.
‐‐ Jonathan Galassi
A lot of great bluegrass comes out of Kentucky. There's a lot of great music, like the Judds, Billy Ray Cyrus, Ricky Skaggs, and Keith Whitley. There's a lot of bluegrass intertwined with country music.
‐‐ Chris Stapleton
A lot of great creativity comes from restrictions.
‐‐ Giles Duley
A lot of great people come to Facebook. In our business, we're about how do we help connect our companies to great people across all levels.
‐‐ David Sze
A lot of groups spend their whole cultural and aesthetic identity trying to move away from Africa, which I think is a mistake. One of the reasons I love Cuba and cultures like that is because they're not trying to move away from their African roots, they're trying to embrace them. That's part of the culture.
