I was always running off to the city, whether it was Philly or New York, going somewhere where there was something more for me.
‐‐ Halsey
I was always scared in the amateurs, but the minute I got in the ring it was like another person took over. I become more vicious. In there I love to hurt people. Outside I can't hurt a bug.
‐‐ Nonito Donaire
I was always searching for something bigger, faster and better, and Slayer came up with that.
‐‐ Daron Malakian

‐‐ Jennifer Damiano
I was always singing as a kid. That's honestly all I've ever wanted to do.
‐‐ Karen Elson
I was always singing but didn't plan on pursuing it seriously. When I got to New York City when I was 18, I started playing in clubs in Brooklyn - I have good friends and devoted fans on the underground scene, but we were playing for each other at that point - and that was it.
‐‐ Lana Del Rey
I was always singing the way I felt, and maybe I didn't exactly know it, but I just didn't like the way things were down there-in Mississippi.
‐‐ Muddy Waters
I was always singing to myself, but I never ever performed, and I never told anyone I liked to sing. So it was a definitely a new adventure going in to audition for 'Glee.'

‐‐ Shilpa Shetty
I was always struck by how Picasso had no interest in music.
‐‐ David Hockney
I was always stuck in a musical no man's land.
‐‐ Ritchie Blackmore
I was always such a people-watcher. I would sit on street corners alone and watch people and make up stories about them in my head. Then, all of a sudden, I was the one being watched.
‐‐ Alanis Morissette
I was always such a skinny kid, so I kind of grew up with an 'I hate skinny' mentality.

I was always superthin, too skinny, actually. I felt like someone could break me in half. I realize now that being a bit more curvy and toned is so much more beautiful.

‐‐ Dakota Johnson
I was always talking about what I could and would do, and you would always make rhymes about the competion even though we werent thinking about competition.

I was always talking in weird voices from the time I was two. I guess I just found a way to keep doing it! I did get a degree in theater and took some voice-over classes... but most of it is just the same stuff I was doing as a kid!
‐‐ Grey DeLisle
I was always taught about the importance of giving back and helping those less fortunate. I think it's also incredibly rewarding.
‐‐ Claire Holt
I was always taught as a kid that if there's anything you want in life, you've got to work towards it. I guess that sort of stayed with me, really. But also, for me, from the time I was, like, 10 years old, all I ever wanted to do was be in a band and make music.
‐‐ Paul Weller
I was always taught if you do something, face the piper. Try to make it right.

‐‐ Ashwin Sanghi
I was always taught that Latin, Caribbean people were cousins to me, as well as blues was a cousin to me, as well as Africans were direct relatives to me. It was all a part of my language.
‐‐ Taj Mahal
I was always taught that the first rule of bunker play is to just get the ball out. When you have a steep face in front of you, this rule applies more than ever. Here, you have to get the ball up in the air as quickly as possible.
‐‐ Matt Kuchar
I was always taught to let the obstacles be your guide because they lead you to places that you wouldn't have gone on your own. Instead of going through a rock, you go around it, creating a path.

‐‐ Adam Yauch
I was always telling everybody that I could be funny.

‐‐ Larry King
I was always telling girls who said that they wanted to be the 'next' Kate Moss or the 'next' Gisele that it wasn't possible, because the 'next' girl wasn't going to look like anybody else; she would be somebody unique. If you look at all the great models... they all have an individual look.
‐‐ Twiggy
I was always telling my family I wanted to become an actress, and I did.
‐‐ Jackee Harry
I was always telling myself I could handle a more complex role, I could handle something bigger and more interesting than the work I was doing. But I wasn't demanding that of myself.

‐‐ Mary Elizabeth Winstead
I was always telling people I was doing great, even if I wasn't.
‐‐ Kevin Plank
I was always that girl who loved music and thought of music as an escape route.

I was always that kid. When I got ice cream, I put it in my eye. When I got my license, I got pulled over so many times for playing 'Les Mis' too loud.
‐‐ Awkwafina
I was always the bad guy in westerns. I played more bad guys than you can shake a stick at until I played the Professor. Then I couldn't get a job being a bad guy.
‐‐ Russell Johnson
I was always the biggest nerd in school: I had very few friends; I was always picked on; I used to wear really big glasses. I was the epitome of a nerd.
