I think the first album I bought was The Jackson Five, but the first CD I was given was 'Cotton-Eyed Joe,' the single! Bless my mum - don't know what she was thinkin'!
‐‐ Sheridan Smith
I think the first and principle objective is to repeal Obamacare before it does lasting, fundamental damage to our health care system, to our individual liberty, to the relationship each of us has with his or her doctor.
‐‐ Ted Cruz
I think the first British actor who really worked well in cinema was Albert Finney. He was a back-street Marlon Brando. He brought a great wittiness and power to the screen. The best actor we've had.
‐‐ Anthony Hopkins
I think the first CD I actually went into a store to pick out myself was a Good Charlotte album... I went through a tomboy punk phase in the fourth grade.
‐‐ Aubrey Peeples
I think the first couple of times you do make-out scenes, you psych yourself out and it's really nerve racking.
‐‐ Hilarie Burton
I think the first decade of this century is going to be remembered as a time of extremism.
‐‐ David Eagleman
I think the first decision I took when I became a government minister was to reverse the planned closure of Monklands Accident and Emergency. It's an issue close to my heart.
‐‐ Nicola Sturgeon
I think the first duty of society is justice.
‐‐ Alexander Hamilton
I think the first little jolt I got was reading Gerard Manley Hopkins - I liked other poems... but Hopkins was kind of electric for me - he changed the rules with speech, and the whole intensity of the language was there and so on.
‐‐ Seamus Heaney
I think the first movie I ever saw was a 'Star Wars' triple bill, when 'Return of the Jedi' was released.
‐‐ Richard Coyle
I think the first person who kind of broke my mind was probably Jimi Hendrix. Listening to him opened my mind up to where you can take music and how far you can take rock n' roll.
‐‐ King Tuff
I think the first photograph I did was a ballplayer. It was a way of showing action or something.
‐‐ Andy Warhol
I think the first role I ever played was Mr. Bumble in a production of 'Oliver.'
‐‐ Caitriona Balfe
I think the first rule of comedy is that it has to be funny and I find a lot of the broad comedy which is sent to me, painfully unfunny.
‐‐ Nigel Cole
I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself.
‐‐ T. D. Jakes
I think the first thing I consider is whether I like the script. Once that is done, the next thing I look for is my part in the movie. Many a times you come across good offers, but the part they are offering might not be challenging. So, I don't take up that film.
‐‐ Rani Mukerji
I think the first thing I did was several scenes from Romeo and Juliet.
‐‐ Sally Field
I think the first thing is don't give up. If you love the craft. If you love being a detective and discovering who a character is and the detail of how they walk and what kind of shoes they wear and what did they do yesterday and what's important to them. I definitely advise actors to learn about the craft.
‐‐ Lin Shaye
I think the first thing that I really did was 'Traffic Light,' which was more of a half-hour sitcom. And from there, I just got more comedic roles.
‐‐ Liza Lapira
I think the first thing that I saw on IMAX was 'The Avengers.' The scope and the size of it are pretty neat, I will say that.
‐‐ Chris Pine
I think the first thing you should know is that nobody in country music 'made it' the same way. It's all different. There's no blueprint for success, and sometimes you just have to work at it.
‐‐ Taylor Swift
I think the first thing you should learn is how to roast a chicken. Once you can roast a chicken, you can pretty much figure out anything else. And who doesn't like roasted chicken? It's a classic.
‐‐ Haylie Duff
I think the first things that are relevant are that things should work well; they should function.
‐‐ Robin Day
I think the first three Rickenbacker basses were imported around 1964. Pete Quaife, the bassist for The Kinks, bought one. Then John Entwistle from The Who bought one. As for the third one, I asked the manager of the store if I could get an employee discount. He said I could, and so I picked up that one.
‐‐ Chris Squire
I think the first time baby recognises me and smiles is going to be one of the most amazing times of my life, to be honest.
‐‐ Greg Rutherford
I think the first time I ever wore a tuxedo was when I played at the Talk Of The Town in 1967, because it was a nightclub and that was the thing to do.
‐‐ Tom Jones
I think, the first time I played Iago at the Public Theater, I realized I had a - much to my chagrin - I realized I had an instinct for these conflicted characters, for these torn characters, for these characters who could be described as evil. I wouldn't describe them that way.
‐‐ Liev Schreiber
I think the first time I realised 'Downton Abbey' was a hit was when I was sitting in a tea shop in New York and the couple next to me were talking about 'Downton Abbey,' and then they recognised me.
‐‐ Michelle Dockery
I think the first time I really heard poetry was in the schoolyard. Just the little limericks that kids say when they're jumping rope and playing games. I think that's the first time I heard rhyming words - I don't know if I'd call that the definitive poetry, but that's when I heard rhyming words said and not necessarily sung.
‐‐ Jill Scott
I think the first time I was ever really conscious of the difference between people's voices was that my mother's voice was so soft and gentle and her pronunciation was so perfect.
‐‐ Marian Seldes
I think the first time you try anything in a public way, you feel really exposed.
‐‐ Amy Grant
I think the first villain that I ever played was on 'Stargate'. I was this superior being that would take over a human host and believe that he was the most superior being in the universe.
‐‐ Kevin Durand
I think the Flecktones are a mixture of acoustic and electronic music with a lot of roots in folk and bluegrass as well as funk and jazz.
‐‐ Bela Fleck
I think the focus of the media changes. At the moment the more electronic stuff like trip-hop was the flavor of the month, just a little while ago. It all depends on the angle, from which point of view you see it.
‐‐ Stephen Malkmus
I think the folks who go after grand challenges are impatient.
‐‐ Peter Diamandis
I think the form, the Hollywood movie, I think the quality is obviously always going to be there and I think that the question of taste, there's always a question of taste.
‐‐ Keanu Reeves
I think the forms of terrorism are becoming very diverse, amongst them cyber-terrorism, for example.
‐‐ Yoshihiko Noda
I think the foundation of everything in my life is wonder.
‐‐ Alice Walker
I think the founding fathers believed religion shouldn't interact directly with government.
‐‐ Jesse Ventura
I think the Founding Fathers probably knew what they were doing in setting up the government to have a healthy tension between the executive branch and the legislative branch.
‐‐ Gina Raimondo
I think the French and the Japanese are both obsessed by seasons, small producers, freshness.
‐‐ Alain Ducasse
I think the French have a romantic cliche that Englishmen have great style, great music, irony and sense of humour. Well, sometimes cliches are true.
‐‐ Josephine de La Baume
I think the French Open, in many ways, brought out a certain characteristic in me and in my game that was already there. Just the circumstances allowed for it to be able to show.
‐‐ Michael Chang
I think the frustration you can get into as a young artist is when you realize your limitations, but you want to accomplish that rather than seeing that you don't have to do everything. Just focus on your strengths.
‐‐ Jose James
I think the fun of following the movie box office and stocks is very similar to the fun of sports - all three combine passion and unpredictability.
‐‐ Leonard Mlodinow
I think the fundamental part of my technique is my vibrato.
‐‐ Robin Trower
I think the fundamental thing about writing fiction is that you write what interests you and what inspires you. It can't be forced. I see no need to write about anything else or any other type of world.
‐‐ Jhumpa Lahiri
I think the funds that have been pledged at Euro Summit, combined with the outcome of the private sector involvement process should be sufficient in order to support financially the Greek Economy.
‐‐ Lucas Papademos
I think the funny thing about acting for me - and I hold it in a very holy, spiritual way - not to be overly fundamentalist about it, but it's that important to me - is that it is an ancient healing art.
