‐‐ Colin Trevorrow
I'm from Ohio, and I wasn't one of those kids who grew up making movies or whatever, but I always wanted to write. I was probably in high school when I realized the things I was writing weren't books; they were movies, they were visual.
‐‐ David Leslie Johnson
I'm from Oklahoma. I mean, you can't have good hair in Oklahoma. That's why everyone wears hats. The wind just messes it up.

I'm from Port Arthur, Texas! Little guy! Little character guy from one of the saddest oil-refinery towns in America. And here I was driving over to Beverly Hills, to 20th Century Fox, to be on 'M*A*S*H!'

I'm from really humble beginnings. I've never been this Hollywood diva, but you get caught up in what you're pretending to be.
‐‐ Heidi Montag
I'm from Santa Cruz in Northern California, and the 49ers were my dad and I's bonding time. We would go to games in the '80s. It was a good time to fall in love with football when your team was unstoppable.

I'm from South Georgia, so my mom, she always cooked some dang good food when I was growing up.
‐‐ Phillip Phillips
I'm from Southampton.

I'm from Texas. You would think my biggest draw would be in that state. But my biggest draw is Pennsylvania.
‐‐ Bill Engvall
I'm from the '60s, but no one has ever accused me of being a hippie. I never had much interest in the Woodstock crowd, which partied to change the world, while real people were starving to death in Africa.
‐‐ Lloyd Kaufman
I'm from the beatnik generation, where everybody wanted to be a poet or writer or something. And at that time, I was a jazz critic, and I was always thinking, theorizing about what makes great art or what's important in art.
‐‐ Harvey Pekar
I'm from the Bob Wills and the Little Richard school of music. Bob Wills did what the hell he thought, Little Richard did what he thought, and those were my big influences.
‐‐ Buck Owens
I'm from the bottom, I understand what it's like to have and to not have. My perception on giving is to put yourself in those people's shoes and go from there. So that's what I did.
‐‐ Kevin Garnett
I'm from the Bronx, so I am looking forward to performing before my homies. I'll keep it live in the house.
‐‐ Big Bank Hank
I'm from the burbs. I've been in the hood, but I don't live there. I have lived in the hood, but I don't live there anymore. I lived in Harlem, and that was crazy, even though Harlem is a lot nicer than it used to be.
‐‐ Jay Pharoah
I'm from the creative side of Hollywood. I'm up for anyone that wants to support my work. If you have eyeballs and give me a budget and are nice to me, I'm in.
‐‐ Jenji Kohan
I'm from the dirty depths of New Jersey.
‐‐ Ezra Miller
I'm from the disco era where everybody thought they were John Travolta... What song is going to get me on the dance floor? Anything from 'Saturday Night Fever,' and you're up there like a demon.

‐‐ Margaret Atwood
I'm from the gulf coast of Louisiana.
‐‐ Ian Somerhalder
I'm from the 'less is more' school. I had to be in the 'more is more' zone with 'Dallas Buyers Club', so I was out of my comfort zone, but I had to trust that.
‐‐ Jean-Marc Vallee
I'm from the Madeleine L'Engle school. The more she delves into science, the more she knows there's a creator who's behind these amazing laws, these amazing events. The symmetry of nature, the structure and order of it.

I'm from the middle of nowhere in Somerset, and if I have too much stimulus or chaos, then I tend to not be as creative.

I'm from the Midwest. We like to know who our neighbors are.
‐‐ Jami Attenberg
I'm from the Mississippi delta originally.

‐‐ Dana Carvey
I'm from the school of, 'if you want more, you have to require more from yourself.'
‐‐ Vera Farmiga
I'm from the school that great performers and great leaders create more great leaders. Give people other experiences, other responsibilities. Have them join organizations within the company and outside the company.
‐‐ John Stumpf
I'm from the South, and there's a different understanding of how to chop. There's a syllable play. It's a delicate art. Your accent has a lot to do with it. If you're from a certain area, words don't roll of your tongue as slick.
‐‐ Yelawolf
I'm from the South - I love to eat, and that's why I have to exercise.
