‐‐ David Burtka
I always thought that farts were funny, and I always thought that they were mine to talk about because they came out of my body.
‐‐ Jenny Slate
I always thought that feminine, softer side was just too vulnerable to put out there, because then it's like you're opening up a door for everybody to come in, and you don't know who's going to come in that door.
‐‐ Grace Jones
I always thought that Grover Norquist had a - he really is a true ideologue, in every sense of the word.
‐‐ Nina Easton
I always thought that I might retire from any form of sexuality by the age of 40 and just become a dignified older person.

‐‐ Yoko Ono
I always thought that I was okay with arithmetic.
‐‐ Erskine Bowles
I always thought that I would spend the first half of my life making money so I can spend the second half of my life giving it all away. And one of the defining moments of my life was when I realized that I could do both at the same time with TOMS.
‐‐ Blake Mycoskie
I always thought that if I got no love at all early in my standup career, or I was god awful, I thought I'd get into psychology.

I always thought that if I made it big or got successful at what I had started out to do, that I wanted to come back to my part of the country and do something great, something that would bring a lot of jobs into this area.
‐‐ Dolly Parton
I always thought that if I wanted to do a family, I wanted to do it big. I wanted there to be chaos in the house.

I always thought that, in a way, you want your Superman to be a total unknown.

I always thought that it's important to have other things, not just work, and I often even suggested my managers take some time off and come back fresh and ready to fight again.
‐‐ Ernesto Bertarelli
I always thought that it was every performer's dream. That's the epitome of being an artist, being able to express song, dance and acting in a live theatre setting and really connecting with an audience on that level.
‐‐ Deborah Cox
I always thought that it was kind of silly that a baseball card could be worth so much money.
‐‐ Matthew Modine
I always thought that life is full of stories and characters that feel like literary stories and characters. So when I started making documentaries, they weren't humble empirical things, just following people around. I was always trying to impose a story.
‐‐ Pawel Pawlikowski
I always thought that Mario was kind of the bad guy - because if you knew about the game, there was supposed to be a back story where Mario was teasing the ape, and the ape stole his girlfriend, and this was kind of karma for Mario, you know?
‐‐ Rich Moore
I always thought that one day I would be somebody. I would be successful in music, and I would have fans that cared about my music. At the same time, I really feel like an ordinary guy; I have been an ordinary guy forever.
‐‐ G-Eazy
I always thought that one of the reasons why a painter likes especially to have other painters look at his or her work is the shared experience of having pushed paint around.
‐‐ Chuck Close
I always thought that poetry is the verdict that others give to a certain kind of writing. So to call yourself a poet is a kind of dangerous description. It's for others; it's for others to use.
‐‐ Leonard Cohen
I always thought that putting tons of reverb on my voice was kind of the equivalent of airbrushing. And I wanted other girls and women to hear a real female voice that wasn't completely manipulated.
‐‐ Kathleen Hanna
I always thought that socialism here would be peculiarly American, with some reasonable, post-industrial evolution between working-class needs and market forces. It won't be bloody like the Russian Revolution.
‐‐ Howard Fast
I always thought that sororities were just made up of cheerleaders from high school. And I kind of picked on those cheerleaders!
‐‐ Spencer Grammer
I always thought that the badge a cop has was more like the shield that Captain America has. It's an obvious sign of good and something you'll protect other people with, but it will also protect you.
‐‐ Judd Nelson
I always thought that the fastest way for me to get ahead and get noticed and to do well was to make my act very accessible. When I first started, I talked about family stuff, my dog, my cat. It was all I knew back then; I wasn't forcing anything, but I wasn't like, 'Hey, don't you hate doing homework?'
‐‐ Nick Swardson
I always thought that there was a really good chance that I wasn't going to get married.
‐‐ Candace Bushnell
I always thought that there was going to be life after baseball, and so I designed that in my life I would have other interests after baseball that I would be able to step into. And I didn't realize the grip that baseball had on me and on my family.
‐‐ Nolan Ryan
I always thought that there was something in hip-hop culture that was the misfit of all the musical styles, where they didn't really belong. They're kind of like, 'No, we're a real culture! We're not going anywhere, you can't get rid of us!' I really liked that there was a rebelliousness about it. I connected with that.
‐‐ Iggy Azalea
I always thought that you breathe, you eat, you go to sleep, and you draw.
‐‐ Paloma Picasso
I always thought the biggest failing of Americans was their lack of irony. They are very serious there! Naturally, there are exceptions... the Jewish, Italian, and Irish humor of the East Coast.
‐‐ Colin Firth
I always thought the desert was the antithesis of peace - something that attacks you. So you don't go to the desert for peace.
‐‐ Sam Shepard
I always thought the name of my first book would be 'The Insecure Chef,' because when I started cooking, I was so nervous.
‐‐ Chrissy Teigen
I always thought the point of life was something richer than that. Something full of great tragedy or comedy, reversal of fortune, ecstasy, that kind of thing. But no, contemporary urban theorists seem satisfied with the merely livable, which always sounds to me like the merely survivable, the not so bad.
‐‐ Jonathan Raymond
I always thought the point was to have a bigger life, to meet more people. So I don't understand Hollywood.
‐‐ Kathleen Turner
I always thought the real violence in Hollywood isn't what's on the screen. It's what you have to do to raise the money.
‐‐ David Mamet
I always thought the saddest feeling in life is when you're dancing in a really joyful way and then you hit your head on something.
‐‐ Lena Dunham
I always thought the Vancouver Olympics would be my last destination, but I'm extending it to Sochi... I want to start anew, not as an Olympic medalist but just as yet another figure skater.
‐‐ Kim Yuna
I always thought the women of song don't get along, and I don't know why that is.
‐‐ Joni Mitchell
I always thought there were some people who were just destined to be disengaged in their jobs because that was their personality, and no matter how hard managers tried, there wasn't much they could do with some of those people.
‐‐ Tom Rath
I always thought Tinker bell was really cool. I'd like to be able to shrink down to a really small size and fly around to places, play tricks on people... you know, fairy-like stuff.
‐‐ Georgina Reilly
I always thought to myself, 'I don't want to be doing stand-up when I'm 40 years old.'
‐‐ Chelsea Handler
I always thought Vincent Lindon had a sexy body, a body you can trust, a solid body you can lean on.
‐‐ Claire Denis
I always thought we had an environmental problem, but I hadn't realized how urgent it was. James Lovelock writes that by the end of this century there will be one billion people left.
‐‐ Vivienne Westwood
I always thought what made 'Beetlejuice' look so great was because it looked like some genius kid made it in his basement.
‐‐ Michael Keaton
I always thought what you wore underneath was as important as what you wear on top.
‐‐ Donna Karan
I always thought when I hit 50 years old that'd be it for the travel. I don't have to tell you - you wait at an airport, your flight's delayed, get on a 14-hour flight, get off, get stuck in traffic, you get to the hotel and the room service is closed.
‐‐ Brian Setzer
