I don't think if you asked any of my childhood friends they would say that I had a weird childhood; they might say there weren't a lot of regular rules, the conversations in the house were always very open, dreams were a great thing to talk about, everybody was making something all the time.
‐‐ Jennifer Lynch
I don't think if you looked up all the main points of feminism I would tick every one essentially myself.
‐‐ Jamie Dornan
I don't think if you're serious about literature your library is filled with award-winning books.
‐‐ Andrew Wylie
I don't think ignorance is a way that you gain distance on something.
‐‐ Alice Sebold
I don't think immortality is necessarily the key to understanding the world. You have to be careful with what you think you're achieving. I'm all for science discovering amazing and fantastic things about our world, but I think the motivations behind it are slightly askew.
‐‐ Reggie Watts
I don't think in a male or female way. I don't differentiate between male and female. I never have. I'm not considered a feminist.
‐‐ Martha Stewart
I don't think in my family anyone looked after anyone. It didn't matter how old they were.
‐‐ Diane Cilento
I don't think in terms of legacy or that kind of stuff. I've always thought that'll take care of itself if I did everything right on a day-to-day basis.
‐‐ Landon Donovan
I don't think in terms of optimism and pessimism when writing a story. I am telling a story.
‐‐ Doris Lessing
I don't think in terms of projects.
‐‐ David Ferry
I don't think in words; I think in pictures, in images.
‐‐ Lance Henriksen
I don't think Indian actors are good. A couple of them are, like Anupam Kher, but not many are there like him in the industry. There are thousand of actors and actresses in the industry, but you can count on hand how many of them are really good; the rest of them are just pretty faces.
‐‐ Russell Peters
I don't think individual achievement in business is the most meaningful way for it to operate.
‐‐ Michael Eisner
I don't think Iraq could be transformed overnight into a democracy. How can you take a country that doesn't have any kind of tradition of democracy, where its people have been brutalized and repressed for decades, and suddenly impose Jeffersonian ideals?
‐‐ Elaine Sciolino
I don't think Ireland has ever had a genius for the novel. Of course, there were plenty of Irish novels, but I don't think that was ever the natural means of expression for the Irish.
‐‐ Lady Gregory
I don't think Israel can accept an Iranian terror base next to its major cities any more than the United States could accept an al Qaeda base next to New York City.
‐‐ Benjamin Netanyahu
I don't think it ever does any harm in any business to feel that there is someone there who cares about it. If you look at any business, fashion being the most obvious, the aura, or the reality of the designer, is part of what creates it. It's true in luxury goods stores and in good food stores. It leaves a palpable sense that someone cares.
‐‐ Andre Balazs
I don't think it ever occurred to me that I wouldn't be an entrepreneur. My dad became a real estate developer, and that work is usually project-based. You attract investors for a project with a certain life cycle, and then you move on to the next thing. It's almost like being a serial entrepreneur, so I had that as an example.
‐‐ Stewart Butterfield
I don't think it ever works to tell people what they can't eat. They can do it for so long, and then they fall off. You have to bring them into a new relationship with food.
‐‐ Alice Waters
I don't think it is about stalling or curing: it's about reversing. Curing gives you the impression of immortality. Stalling gives you the impression that you'll be 85 forever, which is not great.
‐‐ George M. Church
I don't think it is an easy thing to write and expect to be commercial, even if you are from Venus and a hermaphrodite.
‐‐ A. S. Byatt
I don't think it is deniable: whenever we, I, conservative media, are really interested in something, the mainstream media purposely avoid it.
‐‐ Rush Limbaugh
I don't think it is ever enough for a governing majority to simply be opposed to things. We have to be for things.
‐‐ Cory Gardner
I don't think it is given to any of us to be impertinent to great religions with impunity.
‐‐ John le Carre
I don't think it is important to be a role model, because if you are a role model, you are pretending to be someone else.
‐‐ Zendaya
I don't think it is so difficult to solve the problems between Cuba and the United States; it all depends on whether there is a dialogue, a discussion, or if the prejudices and hatred of people like the extremists and terrorists from the Cuban community, who try to impose their policies, prevail.
‐‐ Fidel Castro
I don't think it is worth trying to look 10 years younger through surgery.
‐‐ Debra Winger
I don't think it makes any sense for an individual to invest in common stocks unless they know the company, work at the company, and so on.
‐‐ Eli Broad
I don't think it makes any sense to try to get anyone to not talk.
‐‐ Louis C. K.
I don't think it matters how fast you write. It's how long you thought about it. I like to think of it as a well filling up. I think about it until the well is full, and then I let go.
‐‐ Jim Harrison
I don't think it matters where I came from any more.
‐‐ David Bailey
I don't think it negates your skills as a parent if you're homosexual.
‐‐ Rosie O'Donnell
I don't think it's a bad thing to go out there and challenge yourself as an actor.
‐‐ Matt Bomer
I don't think it's a bad thing to share how you feel, especially if people can relate to it.
‐‐ Norah Jones
I don't think it's a coincidence that 'The War Room' and 'A Perfect Candidate' are films that have been consistently shown and available for rental for 20 years. These are films that are more about the moment in which they were filmed: they also have a great deal to say about larger issues about who we are as a country.
‐‐ R. J. Cutler
I don't think it's a contradiction to find painfulness funny.
‐‐ Jill Soloway
I don't think it's a director's job to peek behind the curtain too much.
‐‐ Paul Thomas Anderson
I don't think it's a good advert for any restaurant, a fat chef, and secondly, who wants to eat a dessert when the chef's a fat pig.
‐‐ Gordon Ramsay
I don't think it's a good attitude in your life to feel that you have to be rich to have self-esteem.
‐‐ Tom Petty
I don't think it's a good idea to plan to sell a company.
‐‐ Elon Musk
I don't think it's a good thing to have Christian states, Muslim states, or any kind of ethnic states.
‐‐ Norman Finkelstein
I don't think it's a low point being in the finals of the French Open, three points away from the victory.
‐‐ Martina Hingis
I don't think it's a matter of, do you win the game or not, it's how gracefully do you play it.
‐‐ Ted Danson
I don't think it's a question of age as much as it's a question of what kind of shape you're in.
‐‐ Strom Thurmond
I don't think it's a secret that I'm not a fan of all the attention and the media, stuff like that, but I understand it's part of it, and I have to do it.
‐‐ Andrew Benintendi
I don't think it's a secret that New York tastemakers don't love my work.
‐‐ Stephen Schwartz
I don't think it's a Western thing to really talk about intrinsic motivation and the drive for autonomy, mastery and purpose. You have to not be struggling for survival. For people who don't know where their next meal is coming, notions of finding inner motivation are comical.
‐‐ Daniel H. Pink
I don't think it's about entertainment. I think it's about being ourselves.
‐‐ Diane Sawyer
I don't think it's about playing and singing, to be honest. That seems like old news, you know? I wasn't thinking about that. I just think that's in my body now. Dancers don't think about their legs moving one way and their arms moving another. Over time, you incorporate that into your instrument.
‐‐ Esperanza Spalding
I don't think it's always good to read lots of poetry.
‐‐ Amber Tamblyn
I don't think it's an accident who our parents are; I believe we choose them. So maybe I chose my parents in order to effect change.
‐‐ Patti Davis
I don't think it's an artist's responsibility to be political all the time. I think your first responsibility as an artist is to make music that people will listen to and enjoy. However, I think that when you are able to say something that is moving and put it in a great song, then that is even better.
‐‐ John Legend
I don't think it's an incredibly radical premise to try and have sympathy for someone who has made a mistake.
‐‐ Joe Cornish
I don't think it's any coincidence that I lost my religious faith and 'manned up' in the same year. I was described somewhere as a lapsed Catholic, which is funny because I'm not going back! I want to achieve things rather than live life in an animalistic way.
‐‐ Jimmy Carr
I don't think it's any mystery that any Christians can be some of the most judgmental people on the planet.
‐‐ David A. R. White
I don't think it's any secret I've never been an advocate for the Affordable Care Act.
‐‐ Brian Sandoval
I don't think it's any secret that the public has lost confidence in the state government, and there's a lot of work that needs to be done on issues related to public integrity.
‐‐ Eric Schneiderman
I don't think it's anything you ever get used to... for many years, I could never sort of put my name in the same sort of category as the word 'famous' or anything like that. And I just found it very uncomfortable... if you get used to it, then something must be wrong.
‐‐ Johnny Depp
I don't think it's at all weakening of the system if people with the same last name put themselves forward to the electorate, when their experiences, their character, and in my case, gender, may be different.
‐‐ Hillary Clinton
I don't think it's blowing my own horn to say the show is not as good. There was chemistry there that took years and years to build and now that's gone. The commentary is lacking.
‐‐ Jerry Lawler
I don't think it's by accident that I was first attracted to translating two French women poets.
‐‐ Marilyn Hacker
I don't think it's by any means an end to my career.
‐‐ Mario Vazquez
I don't think it's cool for people to say, 'You shouldn't reference God because I don't believe that, and I don't want to hear it.' Well, there's a lot of stuff I don't believe that I still gotta hear.
‐‐ Steve Harvey
I don't think it's different to be a black girl in England than it is to be a black girl from America. We all collectively share in a pain of displacement and not feeling like we quite belong in places.
‐‐ Cynthia Erivo
I don't think it's easy to be married to anyone.
‐‐ Jada Pinkett Smith
I don't think it's ever changed, whether its Frank Sinatra, Glenn Miller, Zeppelin, Guns n' Roses or anyone today, the reason why you get into music is because you love it, and if you're good at it, that's a plus.
‐‐ Zakk Wylde
I don't think it's fair to 12-, 13- and 14-year-olds to say 'Show us you're a winner right now!' Winning isn't everything. I'll never buy that thing that if a boy loses a football game, he's a loser in life.
‐‐ Joe Paterno
I don't think it's fair to compare Dick Cheney to Vader - it's unfair to Vader.
‐‐ Mark Hamill
I don't think it's fair to pinpoint Asia in terms of piracy. It's a worldwide problem. With 'The Expendables 3,' piracy extended everywhere, and over 10 percent of it was in the United States. So I don't want to put my hands over my eyes. It's a shame there is no DVD business in a lot of Asia, certainly China and India.
‐‐ Jon Feltheimer
I don't think it's going to be possible for the next generation of writers to tell stories without telling stories about telling stories.
‐‐ Dan Harmon
I don't think it's good for anyone to be in the public light - for negative reasons.
‐‐ Gary Cohn
I don't think it's good for economy to have a broken immigration system.
‐‐ Michael Grimm
I don't think it's good for people to be born into money and not know what it is never to have it.
‐‐ Ruth Rendell
I don't think it's good in any business for anyone to have a monopoly. On the other hand, you need to have size to get costs down.
‐‐ Rick Scott
I don't think it's good to be sentimental, so I try not to be.
‐‐ Chrissie Hynde
I don't think it's good to constantly talk about your own weight and the fact that you look fat in jeans.
‐‐ Bethenny Frankel
I don't think it's good to run on anger, but it's really great when that's the first couple of gallons in your tank - when you've had enough, and you're just pissed off enough to go for it. In a lot of ways, that sort of environment can be a catapult for a great situation.
‐‐ Josh Homme
I don't think it's good to say that you won't do certain things, but I don't necessarily have the natural urge to write.
‐‐ Alia Shawkat
I don't think it's good to try and change anyone. The trick and the mystery - of relationships and life in general - is to learn to live with the bits you don't like.
‐‐ Helen Mirren
I don't think it's government's job to find health care for people. I think it's the individual's job to find health care.
‐‐ Ted Cruz
I don't think it's healthy to buy into hype in any form, whether it's positive or negative. You have to exist in yourself and just move on with life.
‐‐ Elizabeth Debicki
I don't think it's healthy to take yourself too seriously.
‐‐ Payne Stewart
I don't think it's hypothetical whether or not it's a good idea to topple secular dictators in the Middle East and hope to get a good outcome and hope that stability comes thereafter.
‐‐ Rand Paul
I don't think it's important to be that good at singing. I think people who are good at singing sing backing vocals for pop stars. It's about how you project. I wouldn't consider myself to be a singer.
‐‐ Robbie Williams
I don't think it's more difficult for actors to have a good marriage than anyone. I think, in the end, a really important component of any relationship is honesty, and it also comes down to luck.
‐‐ Cate Blanchett
I don't think it's more important to preserve female friendship than a marriage. But I think that there's a place for female friendship that's really important in the lives of all the women I know. As I've gotten older, it's become much more important to me.
‐‐ Diane English
I don't think it's necessarily healthy to go into relationships as a needy person. Better to go in with a full deck.
‐‐ Anjelica Huston
I don't think it's necessary to be an actor to get great performances out of an actor. But I do think it helps me as a director because I know what I like as an actor, and I try to get that to the actors who I'm working with.
‐‐ Steve Buscemi
I don't think it's necessary to shout if you have a good story. But I also don't think you should shy away from being bold in the statement that you're making.
‐‐ Nancy Gibbs
I don't think it's not feminist to use every tool you have to succeed, and part of that is being a woman - presenting yourself in a certain way.
‐‐ Christina Hendricks
I don't think it's possible to have a sense of tragedy without having a sense of humor.
‐‐ Christopher Hitchens
I don't think it's possible to have a wedding without it being stressful!
‐‐ Debra Messing
I don't think it's possible to separate out the strands of a writer's history, circumstances, life events, and that writer's themes.
‐‐ Dani Shapiro
I don't think it's possible to touch people's imagination today by aesthetic means.
‐‐ J. G. Ballard
I don't think it's rational for a country to try to kill the Saudi Arabian ambassador in a restaurant in Washington.
‐‐ Lindsey Graham
I don't think it's realistic to say kids shouldn't watch any TV. I just wish the shows would be better. And that kids would watch less. Get out there and do things, kids! Don't become couch potatoes!
‐‐ Judy Blume
I don't think it's really good once you've lost an election to sit around, watch your former opponent, and swipe at them.
‐‐ Kerry Healey
I don't think it's really possible to share someone in most cases.
‐‐ Amanda Seyfried
I don't think it's right that everybody knows everything about me.
‐‐ Alan Rickman
I don't think it's sacrilegious to remake any movie, including a good or even great movie.
‐‐ Jonathan Demme
