If I'm on form and I'm not being bothered too much by mental problems or whatever, I can whip out something good. That's why I've done quite a few overdubs for Tina Turner and things like that, because even before she made this comeback I said yes to her, just because I love Tina Turner.

If I'm on holiday, I'm active on the beach, I play tennis, I run, I swim a lot. It's just about making the workouts fun, I think, and then it doesn't really feel that bad.
‐‐ Candice Swanepoel
If I'm on holiday, I travel light, but if it is a work trip, I take everything but the kitchen sink.
‐‐ Marie Helvin
If I'm on location on some island, we usually get up at four in the morning to set up. By seven thirty, we're on the beach working until noon, then we rest. It's not exactly a vacation.
‐‐ Daniela Pestova
If I'm on my own, I'll speak to 'Monkey' to generate new stuff for the act. I mean, I don't do it for moral support, although I wouldn't say that's out of the question. In fact, I could do it, I might do it... yes, I think I should actually start doing it more.
‐‐ Nina Conti
If I'm on set and there's no other option, I get on a treadmill, but that's my most hated thing.
‐‐ Anna Kendrick
If I'm on the board of any company where there's an offer that comes in, I want to negotiate.
‐‐ Nelson Peltz
If I'm out of town and I'm in a situation where I have to be creative, it has to be hot dogs because that's my comfort food.
‐‐ Ester Dean
If I'm out trailriding, I have a favorite motorcycle. Riding on the road, I've got a favorite. If I'm jumping, I have a favorite, and if I'm racing, I have a favorite.
‐‐ Evel Knievel
If I'm outside, I want something flat on my feet.
‐‐ Ashley Madekwe
If I'm painting, I paint every day. I'll be up in the studio from 8:00 in the morning to 8:00 at night.
‐‐ John Mellencamp
If I'm paying money to come to see you, you shouldn't look like everybody else in the crowd.
‐‐ Randy Jackson
If I'm performing with a DJ, it's all on me to draw the energy. I like the camaraderie of a band.
‐‐ Talib Kweli
If I'm playing a gig in London, it feels so important. The adrenaline rush here is bigger than anywhere else. I kind of like the pressure that London puts you under.
‐‐ Laura Mvula
If I'm playing a violin thing, for instance, I tend to respond to that sound with the way I finger.
‐‐ Andy Summers
If I'm playing cards for pennies, I want to win.
‐‐ Carl Hubbell
If I'm playing in the morning, I'll get some carbs early: porridge with chopped banana. If I'm playing in the afternoon, I'll start with less carbs and have some eggs and fruit for breakfast, then a light lunch about 90 minutes before I play, so I don't feel sluggish or full.
‐‐ Rory McIlroy
If I'm playing with Ozzy it's just a guitar thing. But with the vocals I feel like I'm studying for the SATs.
‐‐ Zakk Wylde
If I'm preparing for something and I've got a huge day the next day, I have to get into character the night before to assess the scene. I can't assess a scene unless I'm in character, if that makes sense.
‐‐ Samantha Morton
If I'm president, there are going to be government vans that drive around and pick up people who shouldn't be wearing certain clothing. Talk about lack of civil rights - I'm sorry, I'm pulling you right off the street, and we're giving you clothes that you're going to be O.K. in.
‐‐ Denis Leary
If I'm producing, I'm not acting, and it's such a long road to get anything off the ground.
‐‐ Kim Cattrall
If I'm pushed, I'd also have to admit I don't like people with allergies. They just annoy me. There seems to be something far too self-centred about it. 'No thanks, I'm allergic.' Why not just say 'No thanks'? I wasn't asking for your medical history, I was just passing around the nuts. Trying to be friendly, that's all.
‐‐ Jack Dee
If I'm put in a situation where I am not really sure what's going to happen, it can be overwhelming. I get a bit anxious.
‐‐ Misty Copeland
If I'm racist, don't think I would have directed shows like 'The Parkers' and 'The Wayans Brothers' or worked 41 episodes with Victoria Rowell on 'Diagnosis: Murder.'
‐‐ Scott Baio
If I'm reading a script, and I'm not buying it, I need to be able to relate to the character on some level, and they need to have more than one dimension. I need to have an idea of what this guy's thinking about when he's taking a shower not on camera. And if I can't picture him taking a shower and getting dressed, then he's not a real person.
‐‐ Rory Culkin
If I'm ready to play, I want to play.
‐‐ Giancarlo Stanton
If I'm really considering doing film from now on then that is the smart thing to do, or you can go either way. You can just do the same character over and over again and make a different comedy like over and over again.
‐‐ Ray Romano
If I'm really feeling good and not having a lot of interruptions, I can do a minute of animation a day, so theoretically, I could do a film in three months without any interruptions.
‐‐ Bill Plympton
If I'm really honest, I'm not a huge fan of scary films.
‐‐ Imogen Poots
If I'm really under pressure to get work done, I can adapt to most situations, but I prefer to be at home, in a comfortable chair, with as few distractions as possible.
‐‐ John Corey Whaley
If I'm remembered for having done a few good things, and if my presence here has sparked some good energies, that's plenty.
‐‐ Sidney Poitier
If I'm researching something strange and rococo, I'll go to the London Library or the British Library and look it up in books.
‐‐ Ben Schott
If I'm riding my bike I just replay the same scenarios over and over in my head, like I haven't had a new mental adventure since high school. So that's what I like about books on tape, so my mind can't wander anywhere.
‐‐ David Sedaris
If I'm right in the middle of a deadline, I'm up really early.
‐‐ Marilu Henner
If I'm right, the only reason our species is still around is because of our friendship with the canines.
‐‐ Bruce Cameron
If I'm saying a universal truth, but maybe it's something that people don't feel comfortable saying... It's a strange take, but at the same time, what you're hitting on is kind of right. You can relate. That's the heart of comedy. You have to have a point of view. You gotta commit. And the more you commit to it, sometimes the funnier it gets.
‐‐ Vince Vaughn
If I'm seeing you, you're going to influence me. I'm sorry - I'm just that way. I'm a big sponge. You can't copyright an aesthetic.
‐‐ Douglas Carter Beane
If I'm sending emails, and I get all wound up and stressed and don't know what to do with myself for 20 minutes, I just go soak in hot water and lie there, thinking, 'What should I do?' So it's meditative.
‐‐ Tom Ford
If I'm serious about patients and their GPs being able to have more control of their health care, I can't have a top-down system that imposes restrictions on the services they need.
‐‐ Andrew Lansley
If I'm serious, yes, I'd like to have done what Shakespeare did... to act and write. You learn so much from acting. One of our great writers, Alan Bennett, does both supremely well. When I write a story, I tend to speak it aloud as I'm writing it.
‐‐ Michael Morpurgo
If I'm shopping at the Gap or Old Navy, I'm saying that I'm an ordinary person: I don't want to be seen; I don't want to stand out. That's a statement. If I'm wearing a leather jacket, there's something about me that's kind of a rebel. So everybody says something, whether they want to or not.
‐‐ Jidenna
If I'm singing something I don't like, it literally feels like stepping on nails.
‐‐ Caitlin Rose
If I'm sitting around exulting over traffic data, I'm an idiot.
‐‐ Ezra Klein
If I'm slimmer, I feel better about myself, but I don't lose weight for anybody else or for a magazine.
‐‐ Lucy Davis
If I'm so popular, why did they replace me with Tommy Thayer?
‐‐ Ace Frehley
If I'm spending time on something, I may as well do good as opposed to average.
‐‐ Fred DeLuca
If I'm still walking, I am not dead. So I have to still walk and run towards the benefit of Lebanon.
‐‐ Najib Mikati
If I'm stuck in the midst of a story, I take a nap. It often works, and if it doesn't, I still feel better.
‐‐ Max Apple
If I'm stuck in traffic or have a bad moment in my day, I go back to my yoga practice, and I breathe.
‐‐ Isla Fisher
If I'm successful in fooling a wire service, I don't really have to do anything else to promote the story.
