I've often found myself looking fondly at the Valentine's cultures in other countries. South Korea, for instance - where women must give chocolate to men.
‐‐ John Niven
I've often gone to start a film only to find the producers surprised to discover that I'm American.
‐‐ Alessandro Nivola
I've often had people ask me, would you allow a homosexual to be your friend. Yes, I will. And the reason I will is because I know that that person has problems, and if I can minister to those problems, I will.
‐‐ Reggie White
I've often heard people say that managing creative people is the hardest thing in the world. 'They're never happy, they drive up the cost of things, blah blah blah.' I just manage people the way I always wanted to be managed. That is, to be creatively challenged, but never to be told what to do.
‐‐ John Lasseter
I've often heard the complaint from both Democrat and Republican voters alike that they hate the fact that politicians get into office and they - and they're fearful, they're fearful to make tough decisions because they think more about the next election than they do about the next-generation.
‐‐ Scott Walker
I've often liked a girl, made her laugh, and thought she liked me, and then found out that she didn't like me that way. I've definitely done time in the friend zone.
‐‐ Demetri Martin
I've often made critical comments about settlement expansion in the occupied West Bank and in east Jerusalem, and my position hasn't changed. At the same time, it's equally important to me that the two sides, both Israel and the Palestinians, work towards a durable peace settlement: that's to say a viable two-state solution.
‐‐ Angela Merkel
I've often noticed that there is a moment when a man develops enough confidence and ease in a relationship to bore you to death. Sometimes one hardly even notices it's happened, that moment, until some careless remark arouses one's suspicions.
‐‐ Eve Babitz
I've often noticed that we are not able to look at what we have in front of us, unless it's inside a frame.
‐‐ Abbas Kiarostami
I've often played very strong, flashy, kind of inadvertently mean women. I am not that way in my real life.
‐‐ Holland Taylor
I've often reflected on this in the past weeks as I've been following the presidential campaign: Very often, I thought it would have been great for both of these guys to sit down and be force-fed a couple of dozen episodes of Star Trek.
‐‐ Patrick Stewart
I've often said, 'If I had one drive to win a game to this day, and I had a quarterback to pick, I would pick Kenny.' Snake was a lot cooler than I was. He was a perfect quarterback and a perfect Raider. When you think about the Raiders, you think about Ken Stabler.
‐‐ John Madden
I've often said in the past that I thought MTV was sort of evil incarnate and signified the beginning of the end. And I don't know if I'm entirely wrong about that, but they did sign my paychecks a year ago, so I guess I'm part of the problem.
‐‐ Martha Plimpton
I've often said it: that it is seen to be a place of energy, of excitement, of enthusiasm. That there's something about Ireland.
‐‐ Enda Kenny
I've often said that all poetry is political. This is because real poems deal with a human response to reality and politics is part of reality, history in the making. Even if a poet writes about sitting in a glass house drinking tea, it reflects politics.
‐‐ Yehuda Amichai
I've often said that far more sensible than a 'make poverty history' campaign would be a 'make wealth history' campaign. It is, after all, the wealthy people who do all the damage. The less money you earn, the fewer resources you use up.
‐‐ Tom Hodgkinson
I've often said that the most important thing you can give your children is wings. Because, you're not gonna always be able to bring food to the nest. You're... sometimes... they're gonna have to be able to fly by themselves.
‐‐ Elizabeth Edwards
I've often said that there's no such thing as writer's block; the problem is idea block.
‐‐ Jeffery Deaver
I've often said that while gaining muscle can be very difficult, it's also pretty simple - at the heart of it, you just need to take in more energy than you expend, and use an intelligent program. This is especially true for beginners.
‐‐ John Romaniello
I've often said the most difficult things I have to say to people through humour. I can very quickly put someone in their place with it. But we all walk away unscathed because there's been some funnies around it, and I'll usually make sure that it comes back at me.
‐‐ Dawn French
I've often said the reader knows every bit as much about Thorne as I do. When I created him for 'Sleepyhead,' I was determined he should be a character who would develop, book by book, change and grow as we all do, and who - crucially - would be unpredictable.
‐‐ Mark Billingham
I've often said there's no such thing as a track record in TV. I seen people who created things much more successful than mine treated like dirt.
‐‐ Joss Whedon
I've often said there's nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse.
‐‐ Ronald Reagan
I've often said there's two kinds of actors. There's a more gregarious type and the shy type.
‐‐ Al Pacino
I've often sat down with people talking about a film I've been in, and they haven't realised I was in it.
‐‐ Helen McCrory
I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people.
‐‐ Marilyn Monroe
I've often taken important classical, biblical or literary stories and interrogated them. I have tried to reinvigorate Lot by interpreting it differently.
‐‐ Howard Barker
I've often thought even ragtag gatherings of documentary filmmakers are more fun than gatherings of fiction filmmakers.
‐‐ Marshall Curry
I've often thought having a politician for a parent must be like having a constantly embarrassing uncle.
‐‐ Johann Lamont
I've often thought I'm a short music hall comedian stuck in a leading man's body.
‐‐ Roger Rees
I've often thought if I didn't make my marriage work, I would have failed at my one true shot at happiness.
‐‐ Bethenny Frankel
I've often thought that my background in rock 'n' roll has gone to waste in film work. My background was that I was a rock 'n' roll drummer and I don't think I used drums in my first ten years of film scoring.
‐‐ Cliff Martinez
I've often thought that my lack of intimacy with those around me is the fault of those around me.
‐‐ Luke Ford
I've often thought that Obama should come out in favor of oxygen, just to see how many right-wingers keel over from holding their breath for too long.
‐‐ Kurt Eichenwald
I've often thought that the gauntlet of American politics is more individualistic, more expensive, more unpredictable than in many other democracies.
‐‐ Hillary Clinton
I've often thought the Bible should have a disclaimer in the front saying, 'This is fiction.'
‐‐ Ian Mckellen
I've often used the extremes in my work to comment on the mainstream. I think that sometimes a subject that I'm working on, like popular culture, is so present all around us that they're hard to see. It's like: How do you see the air you breathe? How do you see how it affects you?
‐‐ Lauren Greenfield
I've often wished when I started a book I knew what was going to happen. I talked to writers who write 80-page outlines, and I'm just in awe of that.
‐‐ Charlaine Harris
I've often wondered, when they've done Of Mice And Men on stage, and I've seen it, how they did that gun thing. I've watched it on stage, but I don't remember it.
‐‐ Ray Walston
I've only actively promoted what we always hope is good science.
‐‐ Elizabeth Blackburn
I've only auditioned for one non-culturally specific role. I went through drama school and studied classic texts and played lead roles in 'Measure for Measure' and 'The Importance of Being Earnest' alongside a very culturally diverse group of acting students. But as soon as we graduate and enter the industry, all of those roles fall away.
‐‐ Shari Sebbens
I've only been doing this fifty-four years. With a little experience, I might get better.
‐‐ Harry Caray
I've only been in long-term relationships. I've never really dated myself.
‐‐ Dakota Johnson
I've only been in love with a beer bottle and a mirror.
‐‐ Sid Vicious
I've only been in one fight in my whole life... in 7th grade, yet everyone thinks I'm a maniac.
‐‐ Ray Liotta
I've only been interested in the artistic side of life.
‐‐ Elton John
I've only been living in England for the last 10 years, if you don't count my student years.
‐‐ Terri Windling
I've only been making records since 1991. When you look at the long-standing careers of people like Joni, it's not very long!
‐‐ Sheryl Crow
I've only been on MTV once as one of their 'Closet Classics,' with some bootleg footage of a 1970 tour I did in Holland. They didn't know what to make of my music, but they finally invented a name for it - world beat music.
‐‐ Taj Mahal
