A lot of our so-called Latino leaders are gutless. I talk to these cry-baby Latino leaders, and they say they can't win elections until Latinos are a majority.
‐‐ Juan Vargas
A lot of our tracks have sounded a lot better than I thought they would because of recording, mixing, and because I probably didn't hear it that way. I'm not a songwriter.
‐‐ Charlie Watts
A lot of our writers, like Conan O'Brien, moved on to other things.
‐‐ Matt Groening
A lot of painters listen to music, I think, while they paint. But I hate to do that. It's a horror. I can't really listen to the music. I'm not really concentrating on it, and I'm not really concentrating on the painting.
‐‐ David Lynch
A lot of panel programmes rely on men topping each other, or sparring with each other, which is not generally a very female thing.

A lot of parents pack up their troubles and send them off to summer camp.
‐‐ Raymond Duncan
A lot of parents tell their children that if they want to be an actor, that's fine, but they should do something else first, so they've got something to fall back on. It doesn't work like that, as far as I'm concerned.
‐‐ Ewan McGregor
A lot of parents today are terrified that something they say to their children might make them 'feel bad.' But, hey, if they've done something wrong, they should feel bad. Kids with a sense of responsibility, not entitlement, who know when to experience gratitude and humility, will be better at navigating the social shoals of college.
‐‐ Amy Chua
A lot of parts of L.A. are interchangeable with suburbs in Joburg. Very big, ostentatious houses with palm trees and lawns. Lawns are very important. Never underestimate lawns.
‐‐ Neill Blomkamp
A lot of parts on television are static. Nothing really changes.
‐‐ Jim Parrack

‐‐ Christina Aguilera
A lot of people are afraid to tell the truth, to say no. That's where toughness comes into play. Toughness is not being a bully. It's having backbone.
‐‐ Robert Kiyosaki
A lot of people are bored of all the political correctness.
‐‐ Clint Eastwood
A lot of people are crazy, cruel and negative. They got a little too much time on their hands to discuss everybody else. I have a limited amount of energy to blow in a day. I'd rather read something that I like or watch a program I enjoy or ride my damn motorcycle or throw back a couple of shots of tequila with my friends.
‐‐ Queen Latifah
A lot of people are deeply dissatisfied by the diminishing control they have over their lives, because of the way our system of government is set up, to cater to the powerful, cater to the wealthy, cater to the corporations, and not to the individual American citizen.

A lot of people are doing something about their weight, but by their own reckoning, it isn't enough to get the results they want.
‐‐ Paul Taylor

‐‐ Mark Zuckerberg
A lot of people are frightened by old age - by being around people who are, basically, on their way out - but I'm fascinated by it. It's an amazing thing to be around someone who has had a life well lived.

A lot of people are intimated by art, but it's something to be revered beyond criticism.
‐‐ Hannah Gadsby
A lot of people are like, 'Don't read your news clippings.' I read them every day. Anything negative somebody said about me, I find it and use it as fuel.
‐‐ Richard Sherman
A lot of people are like, 'So you want to be famous.' And I'm like, 'No, I want to be good at my craft. I don't care about fame, I don't care if I even ever make it. As long as people know what I am as an actress in this business, I'm set for my career right now.'
‐‐ Chloe Grace Moretz
A lot of people are living in a dream world - they want to deny that aging occurs or believe it doesn't have to occur. They'll hold on to this belief until the moment they die. The reality will eventually hit them.
‐‐ S. Jay Olshansky
A lot of people are living their lives online in much more public ways with Facebook and Twitter.

A lot of people are quite discouraged by the process of getting healthy because, one, they think they can't afford it, and two, it's daunting. I wanted to start a dialogue. Because you won't be able to even get there until you actually accept yourself and start connecting with yourself.
‐‐ Kate Hudson
A lot of people are realizing they had the wool pulled over their eyes by Obama.
‐‐ Clint Eastwood
A lot of people are really excited to see the continuation of Cory and Topanga and 'Boy Meets World'. I was getting a lot of positive feedback, which I was really happy about.

A lot of people are simply interested in exploring their own spirituality, their own values, who they are, whether they're happy where they are.
‐‐ James Redfield
A lot of people are singing about how screwed up the world is, and I don't think that everybody wants to hear about that all the time.
‐‐ Mariah Carey
A lot of people are surprised by my love of heavy metal. I fell in love with heavy metal almost before any other genre. One of the first concerts I went to was a Donnington Monsters Of Rock concert.
‐‐ Jamie Cullum
A lot of people are surprised economists are assisting with kidney exchanges. Exchanges are what economists are good at.
‐‐ Alvin E. Roth

A lot of people are surprised when I talk so much about the present, but politics is just a crucial part of archaeology.
