I went to Dartmouth College so simply by being an Indian-American woman, I was already so statistically interesting. And then the fact that I didn't want to do anything science-related, and I wanted to write comedy plays and act little bit - I mean, I became deeply interesting in college because of how rare that was.

I went to Dave Eggers with this idea of doing a movie about a guy going through some sort of Frank Capra-esque journey.
‐‐ John Krasinski
I went to department stores, and there was nothing that I really loved. All the shoes were too complicated, too crazy, too ridiculous, too extreme. The platforms were so high; the shoes were so ugly, covered in crystals and feathers and crap. I just thought, 'Maybe somebody wants a beautifully simple, sexy shoe that they can actually walk in.'
‐‐ Edgardo Osorio
I went to dinner with my mother-in-law and I just realized I was talking in sound bites to her and expecting her to laugh every time I said anything or be jotting something down in a notebook. So you have to kind of really have a talk with yourself after you've done a press tour and say, 'Chill out!'
‐‐ Emily Mortimer
I went to Disney World for the first time, and I got an ice cream cone. The kid at the booth recognized me and started tweeting... It was the first time in my life someone handed me ice cream for acting.
‐‐ Barbara Rosenblat
I went to drama school and, after that, went to Paris to train at a place called Ecole Philippe Gaulier. When I came home, I realised I'd have to have a serious stab at it. I didn't have an agent and didn't have the traditional drama school showcase, so I started a comedy group with a couple of friends.
‐‐ Mathew Baynton
I went to drama school at New York University.
‐‐ Molly Shannon
I went to drama school at NYU for serious acting. So I was doing Chekov and Sam Shepard plays.
‐‐ Casey Wilson
I went to drama school for four years at Carnegie Mellon, conservatory training before television comedy. I was doing Shakespeare and Chekov plays. It's about delivering on the promise of a $100,000 education and taking the shackles off and trying the hand at my craft. I'm thrilled with what I've seen so far.
‐‐ Josh Gad
I went to drama school for three years, and the whole thing there is that hopefully you are introduced to a man called William Shakespeare who is the greatest of all time of all storytelling.
‐‐ Hayley Atwell
I went to drama school. I'm classically trained; I studied Shakespeare, blah blah blah. But I always preferred to do Oscar Wilde, or Shakespeare's comedies over his dramas.
‐‐ Elizabeth Banks
I went to drama school in England, and you spend your first year working on the muscles surrounding the vocal mechanisms. You learn how you support it and create characters through your voice so that became an obsession. So I went to Hollywood thinking, 'Oh, I'm going to be one of the great voice-over artists.'
‐‐ Lake Bell
I went to drama school in Paris and started doing theatre with a friend. Then I moved into movies and slowly but surely I got roles.
‐‐ Jean Reno
I went to drama school in Scotland.
‐‐ Richard Madden
I went to drama school in the U.K., where we did endless Chekov plays.

I went to Duke University in the medical track. And then I decided I wanted to do something more creative, so I switched to biochemistry at Nebraska.

I went to Duke, which is... a Top Five school. Not community college. But whatever.

I went to eight different schools my first nine years of school.
‐‐ Vanessa Lachey
I went to electric razors so I would not have to look at myself in the morning.
‐‐ Mario Cuomo
I went to elementary like any other kid, but I was just always a little different. I had that sparkle, and everyone told my mom, 'She needs to be on TV, acting.'
‐‐ Raven Goodwin
I went to elementary school in Ottawa, and then to a private secondary school.
‐‐ Douglass North
I went to engineering school, I went to physics class. I said, 'Screw this, I don't want to be here. I'd much rather be at a club playing music.'
‐‐ Huey Lewis
I went to engineering school, which I thought was what I wanted to do, for about two weeks. We had an orientation class and we met this guy where he worked and stuff and it was cool, but I was like, 'There is no way this is going to be my life.'
‐‐ Evan Glodell
I went to England for five months when I was in high school, by myself, so I did experience a bit of being the fish out of water.
‐‐ Jane Levy
I went to Ethiopia, and it dawned on me that you can tell a starving, malnourished person because they've got a bloated belly and a bald head. And I realized that if you come through any American airport and see businessmen running through with bloated bellies and bald heads, that's malnutrition, too.
‐‐ Dick Gregory
I went to Europe with Spencer Tracy. What a thrill, working with John Ford when I was a kid.
‐‐ Robert Wagner
I went to film school, and I came in when video art was king, weird stuff was king, and there, you don't have a script as your bible.
‐‐ Jonathan Krisel
I went to film school and wanted to learn everything there was about making movies.
‐‐ Zach Braff
I went to film school at Columbia and did that for a couple years, and really thought I was going to be a filmmaker, and then I kind of drifted over to the acting side after that.
‐‐ Scott Adsit
I went to film school at UT Austin. I learned a lot, and that school's good for puking up all your bad movies early and quick. But ultimately, no one can teach you to be an artist.
‐‐ Jay Duplass
I went to film school, so I certainly know how to make things quickly and cheaply. But at the same time, I have the experience of working with Steve Starkey for three years. I watched him produce some gigantic movies.
‐‐ Lauren Miller
I went to film school so I have a writing and directing background, and I think a lot of the material I'm interested in writing and getting out there is stories about anti-heroes and people you should just not ordinarily root for - trying to figure out a way of appealing to people they wouldn't normally appeal to.
‐‐ Danny McBride
I went to film school to make films just because you're in control of the story.
‐‐ Julie Delpy
I went to film school, trained as a director, have made a lot of movies, and taken a lot of photographs, so I tend to envision things spatially. As I'm working, I need to have a map of the space. I need to know what's happening in all corners simultaneously.
‐‐ Ransom Riggs
I went to film school, worked as an assistant, and wrote several scripts that haven't gotten made.
‐‐ Lauren Miller
I went to find myself and save myself by being an agent.
‐‐ Victoria Principal
I went to Florida when I was 15. That was my first time in America, so you learn about how different the regions are.
‐‐ Janet Montgomery
I went to Floridita on Wardour Street when I was 18. All I could afford was pumpkin soup and a glass of champagne, but it was worth it.
‐‐ Karen Gillan
I went to football training when I was five because I think my father thought he had two boys.

I went to Fountain Valley High School. I remember watching Grove Shakespeare productions here. It left a big impression on me.
‐‐ David Denman
I went to four different proms in high school. I was addicted to the whole ballroom thing.
‐‐ Amanda Seyfried
I went to Ft Bragg and learned that Delta was indeed gearing up for the rescue. Still I was concerned the Reagan staff would not be willing to take the risk of sending an official military force into Laos.
‐‐ Bo Gritz
I went to Gettysburg College, where the famous Civil War battle was fought. I majored in English. I would've liked to major in writing, but they didn't offer a major in that.
‐‐ Jerry Spinelli
I went to go see 'Final Destination' which you have to be 17 and over to see and they're like 'Uh, we need to see your I.D.' Here's the really funny thing is that I actually had done my hair and makeup that day. If I don't do my hair and makeup I can understand it but I had actually made an effort to look older.
‐‐ Kay Panabaker
I went to Goldsmith College of Art in London in the '80s and there I made sculptures, but the objects had nothing to do with how I was thinking. I was making beautifully sanded wooden boxes!
‐‐ Sam Taylor-Wood
I went to Goucher College in Maryland for the best possible reasons - to learn - but then I dropped out at 19 for the best possible reasons - to become a writer.
‐‐ Anne Lamott
I went to government for making these changes. I remember a number of guys among these important figures.
‐‐ Anatoly Chubais
I went to grad school in San Francisco, and then left for New York City with my eye on Broadway. I had saved $5000, which seemed like a lot of money in my mind... until I realized it was going to take $2500 to get to New York and then the first and last month's rent.
‐‐ Anika Noni Rose
I went to grad school with the grand plan of getting my Ph.D. and writing weighty, Tudor-Stuart-set historical fiction - from which I emerged with a law degree and a series of light-hearted historical romances about flower-named spies during the Napoleonic wars.
‐‐ Lauren Willig
I went to graduate school at Harvard for one year I worked in the state legislature in Sacramento for one year. I taught school in Compton for two years.
