I don't think playing a villain is my greatest talent.
‐‐ Sam Waterston
I don't think poetry is something that can be taught. We can encourage young writers, but what you can't teach them is the very essence of poetry.
‐‐ Robert Morgan
I don't think poetry will die, but I think that poetry does demand a certain kind of attention to language. It does demand a certain space in order to read it, and I think that space is somewhat threatened by the lack of attention that people have and the amount of time that they give to things.

I don't think politicians should be allowed into power who are not familiar with their bodies, because that's where our bottom line is. And I know that they would make totally different decisions if they felt responsible simply for their own bodies.
‐‐ Twyla Tharp
I don't think politicians should be allowed to take money for their campaigns from outside interests.
‐‐ Ronda Rousey
I don't think politics has anything to do with left, right, or center. It has to do with trying to do right by people.
‐‐ Paul Wellstone
I don't think 'pop' should mean that you had no talent.
‐‐ Grace Jones
I don't think, post 9/11, we're going to wait for real obvious things like Country A attacking Country B - because Country A doesn't attack Country B any more.
‐‐ Thomas P.M. Barnett
I don't think Post often came to Princeton during the '30s. I can't remember ever seeing him in Princeton.
‐‐ Stephen Cole Kleene
I don't think practitioners should necessarily be advertising their work.
‐‐ Sarah Hall
I don't think President Bush is doing anything at all about Aids. In fact, I'm not sure he even knows how to spell Aids.
‐‐ Elizabeth Taylor
I don't think President Obama has been that revolutionary in reaching out to ethnic communities. President Reagan did a lot for the black community that people don't realize.
‐‐ Terrence Howard
I don't think public life in and of itself can destroy you. I think it's the way people react to it, and some people are more sturdy than others... I don't think any one faction can be blamed for a person's self destruction - a certain amount of that has to be innate.
‐‐ Patti Smith
I don't think Pulp Fiction is hard to watch at all.
‐‐ Quentin Tarantino
I don't think punk ever really dies, because punk rock attitude can never die.
‐‐ Billy Idol
I don't think punk fashion is a specter or overemphasized - it made a big impression, as there had never been anything like it before.
‐‐ Vivienne Westwood
I don't think quantity time is as special as quality time with your family.
‐‐ Reba McEntire
I don't think radio is selling records like they used to. They'd hawk the song and hawk the artist and you'd get so excited, you'd stop your car and go into the nearest record store.
‐‐ Herb Alpert
I don't think rap really fits in to 'American Idol' in the sense that I believe rap is an art form in itself more akin to poetry, more akin to drama, if you will.
‐‐ Nigel Lythgoe
I don't think Reagan is primarily funny, and I don't think he's primarily marvelous; he's complicated.
‐‐ Eugene Jarecki
I don't think religious groups should be allowed to apply for federal funds to start new ministries they have not been doing before the funding was available.
‐‐ Jerry Falwell
I don't think Ripley is gay. He appreciates good looks in other men, that's true. But he's married in later books. I'm not saying he's very strong in the sex department. But he makes it in bed with his wife.
‐‐ Patricia Highsmith
I don't think rock 'n' roll is necessarily a young man's game.
‐‐ Adam Clayton
I don't think rock 'n roll is necessarily a young man's game. I think Neil Young is just as rock'n'roll now as he was in his 20s. I'd like to think we can still be edgy and challenging.
‐‐ Adam Clayton
I don't think Roger Dodger is really about men. I think it is more about relationships and about how you present yourself, not only to the opposite sex, but to yourself. What lies are you going to tell yourself in order to get through the day?
‐‐ Jennifer Beals
I don't think roles help you resolve your issues. I just think they're good markers.
‐‐ Kirsten Dunst
I don't think Romney is wacky at all, but religion makes intelligent people say and do wacky things, believe and affirm crazy things. Left on his own, Romney would never have said something like the Garden Of Eden was in Missouri, and will be again.
‐‐ Christopher Hitchens
I don't think running for office is anything I'm prepared for or could even prepare myself for.
‐‐ America Ferrera
I don't think Russia could start a war by attacking any of the NATO member states.
‐‐ Milos Zeman
I don't think Russia is setting this as a goal; I don't think this should be Russia's goal. I think even the United States doesn't need to be a superpower. China doesn't need to be a superpower. It's a different world.
‐‐ Mikhail Gorbachev
I don't think Russia will follow the United States's way. I don't think Russia will follow the French way. I'm sure Russia will find its own way.
‐‐ Anatoly Chubais
I don't think schooling of any sort really prepares you for real life. I don't know if art school would have prepared me to draw comics. Half of the people I know in comics went to art school, half of them didn't. Some of them went and dropped out.
‐‐ Dave Gibbons
I don't think screenwriting is therapeutic. It's actually really, really hard for me. It's not an enjoyable process.
‐‐ Charlie Kaufman
I don't think she is underappreciated, certainly not among writers, but Alice Munro is the classic underappreciated writer among readers. It is almost a cliche now to wonder why this living legend is not more widely read.
‐‐ Khaled Hosseini
I don't think shoving my butt into people's faces will tell them anything about who I am. How is that connecting to your audience? What is that doing for your music?
‐‐ Kiesza
I don't think Silicon Valley understands the power of Wikipedia, how it works, or the opportunities it represents.
‐‐ Mitch Kapor
I don't think silicone makes a girl good or bad.
‐‐ James Caan
I don't think so, but it's always in the back of my mind that many of the soldiers being wounded and killed in Iraq are about the same age as my kids. My godson is going over soon, so the war's about to get personal for me.
‐‐ Garry Trudeau
I don't think so-called high technology matters in death. I think they had high technology before Noah's Ark. And it got lost because that was the first Ice Age.
‐‐ Miriam Defensor-Santiago
I don't think so, in so far as I always aspired to play the way I do now but just couldn't get the sounds out always due to technical limitations - now I can pretty much play what I hear in realtime.
‐‐ Gary Lucas
I don't think so, in that Virgin is already a global brand. Brands like Amazon have had to spend hundreds of millions of pounds you know, building their brands, whereas Virgin is already well-known around the world.
‐‐ Richard Branson
I don't think so much about verbal comedy. I always think about visual comedy. I was raised watching silents, and I'm always thinking about how to make cinema, not good talking - although I want good talking. I'm much more interested in framing, composition, and orchestration of bodies in space, and so forth.
‐‐ Alexander Payne
I don't think socialism, and I don't think warmness and respect are necessarily bad words.
‐‐ Dave Matthews
I don't think some athletes understand how big it is to be an athlete, what they can do with just a simple gesture of shaking a kid's hand. It can make a fan's day. It can make a fan's life.
‐‐ Matt Kemp
I don't think something necessarily has to be mean or cynical to represent 'edgy.' I think 'edgy' can mean a lot of different things.
‐‐ Steve Carell
I don't think songs have to be like these super-#1-smash-hit-sounding songs, because I think it's more important that it's like, 'Hey! This is coming out of me. This is something I connect with. This is something that I like to sing.'
‐‐ David Archuleta
I don't think souls or bodies can be changed by incantation. Or anything else by the way.
‐‐ Christopher Hitchens
I don't think Steve Jobs had much desire to share his fortune.
‐‐ Xavier Niel
I don't think Steve Jobs nauseated people when talking about how great Apple stuff was. The reason why he didn't nauseate people is because it was true. The start of all great marketing is to have a great product.
‐‐ Guy Kawasaki
I don't think Steve Scalise has a racist bone in his body. Steve and I have worked on issues that benefit poor people, black people, white people, Jewish people. I know his character.
‐‐ Cedric Richmond
