I learned my phrasing from Frank. I loved him so much.
‐‐ Eydie Gorme
I learned my profession onstage. I didn't have a musical background. I had no conservatory training. I don't play an instrument.
‐‐ Marcello Giordani
I learned my values. It's better to be poor than to be beholden. Wealth is not the object of life. You should be polite as long as possible, and when you can't be polite anymore, don't run.
‐‐ Daniel Woodrell
I learned never to empty the well of my writing, but always to stop when there was still something there in the deep part of the well, and let it refill at night from the springs that fed it.

‐‐ Tim Robbins
I learned no detail was too small. It was all about the details.

‐‐ Jan Karon
I learned not to blink in a close-up or move your head at all, because if you did, they wouldn't use it.
‐‐ Frankie Avalon
I learned not to confuse 'busy' with 'productive,' but I'm still far too addicted to email to resist its early-morning digital snuggles.

I learned nothing while I was in school.
‐‐ Lorraine Bracco
I learned on film at NYU. I was probably the last generation that was analog. Anyone who was a year younger than me, it was probably all digital.
‐‐ Colin Trevorrow
I learned one of the very important lessons in life in the 9/11 attacks. It's good to have a plan for your future; it's even better to write your plan in pencil.
‐‐ Tom Cotton
I learned one thing from De Niro: He taught me to listen. Nobody says anything strictly from the script. It's improvised. It was the best piece of advice I have ever gotten in my life. It has helped me through the past thirty years.
‐‐ Cathy Moriarty
I learned one thing from jumping motorcycles that was of great value on the golf course, the putting green especially: Whatever you do, don't come up short.

I learned one thing in Watergate: I was well-intentioned but rationalized illegal behavior. You cannot live your life other than walking in the truth. Your means are as important as your ends.
‐‐ Charles Colson
I learned one thing - never hate a positive option.

‐‐ Martin Lewis Perl
I learned quickly at Columbia that the only eye that mattered was the one on the camera.
‐‐ Gene Tierney
I learned quickly that if the student's perception is that you're not listening to them, and not understanding them, they discredit you.
‐‐ Tim Gunn
I learned quite early on in life that we are all two people. And one of those people none of us will ever know.
‐‐ Helen Mirren
I learned really early on that I had to treat it as if it were a real job. This might be my middle class background - the Irish work ethic, which isn't quite the same as the Protestant work ethic - but still, it's, 'Get a job and show up every day. Be there. And don't complain. Who do you think you are: you're nobody special; go to work.'
‐‐ Alice McDermott
I learned really valuable lessons from 'Blue's Clues.' I'd repeat them every day. 'You can do things. You are smart.'
‐‐ Steve Burns
I learned running the government for the Presidency, which I always thought was difficult, is even more difficult than I thought.
‐‐ Lloyd Cutler
I learned snails don't have ears. They live in silence. They go slowly. Slowly, slowly in silence.
‐‐ Billy Collins
I learned so many roles so quickly as a young singer, I thought it was time to come back to them and make them better - deeper, more nuanced.
‐‐ Renee Fleming
I learned so much about being an actor by being a director. More than I ever thought I would.
‐‐ Chris Lowell
I learned so much about playing and touring being on the road and in the studio with Jeff, but I'd always played a lot of gigs in Seattle even prior to joining the Fusion.
‐‐ Kenny G
I learned so much about the toxicity of our environment while trying to get pregnant, I didn't want to do anything to mess up the kid now that she was finally here.
‐‐ Constance Marie
I learned so much by being an actor, and part of my sort-of development as a writer is big thanks to the scripts I read in my acting life.
‐‐ Joel Edgerton
I learned so much from other actors and they definitely didn't treat me like some sex bomb or bimbo. I felt fully accepted in the regular movie world. I didn't feel categorised.
‐‐ Sylvia Kristel
I learned so much from Tony Danza I learned so much about myself.
‐‐ Judith Light
I learned so much in Laos. I learned that fried silkworm larvae are delicious. I learned how to make ant-egg salad.
‐‐ Ruth Reichl
I learned so much in the year after Flickr was acquired. People forget, but Flickr launched in February 2004. And a year later, the deal was done with Yahoo, and we closed it in March of 2005. It was really independent for a relatively short period of time.
‐‐ Stewart Butterfield
I learned so much in Zimbabwe, in particular about the need for humility in our ambition to extend mental health care in countries where there were very few psychiatrists and where the local culture harboured very different views about mental illness and healing. These experiences have profoundly influenced my thinking.
‐‐ Vikram Patel
I learned so much more prepping vegetables than I ever did in cooking school.

‐‐ Johnny Rivers
I learned some valuable lessons about the legislative process, the importance of bipartisan cooperation and the wisdom of taking small steps to get a big job done.

I learned something from that. If someone asks me something that I really don't want to do, I say no. I have to trust that. And I'm not afraid to talk money.
‐‐ Diana Ross
I learned something important in my race against Senator Brown: voters want political leaders who are willing to break the partisan gridlock. They want fewer closed-door roadblocks and more public votes on legislation that could improve their lives.
‐‐ Elizabeth Warren
I learned something through the experiences in my life, and that is that you never judge how someone may be reacting to a situation because you don't know what they may be going through. It's important that you treat people well, and I try to make people feel good about themselves always.
‐‐ Kimberly Schlapman
I learned something very important early on: You accept what happens and move on. In other words, if I hit a bad shot, I can't change it. There is only the next shot. That was a big lesson.
‐‐ Billy Casper
I learned Spanish at home and, since half my family doesn't speak English, it's my first language.
‐‐ Odette Annable
I learned Tae Kwon Do and gymnastics and I have a trainer.
‐‐ Ashley Scott
I learned that a long walk and calm conversation are an incredible combination if you want to build a bridge.
‐‐ Seth Godin
I learned that as much as you think when you're walking down that aisle that this forever, sometimes it's just not forever. You can have the best of intentions.
‐‐ Betty Wright
I learned that comedy is born out of strong characters. I won't begin writing a character until I have a clear take on them.
