In my sort of young, idealistic mind, I was just like, 'Well, it's either theater or film for me, and that will be that!'
‐‐ Gillian Jacobs
In my spare time I like to sleep.
‐‐ Jacob Lusk
In my spare time I like watching TV, laying on the couch, just chillin'.
‐‐ Casey Abrams
In my special place, room service could only consist of my husband making me a breakfast of eggs, avocados, and hummus. And coffee with milk.
‐‐ Kelli O'Hara
In my speeches, I always condemned communism, national-socialism and fascism.
‐‐ Jean-Marie Le Pen
In my sport, we're measured in millimeters and fractions of millimeters.
‐‐ Matt Emmons
In my sports or workout life, I like to prove to myself I can do something, whether it's a half marathon or whatever it is. I like to take challenges that scare me because then once we've accomplished it, we feel stronger.
‐‐ Kim Raver
In my stand-up, I generally improvise from an outline.
‐‐ Jeff Garlin
In my stand up, I think I try to be less energetic because I feel embarrassed about how much enthusiasm I have. There's something about acting like I don't care, or if I act like I haven't spent enough time on it, it seems to go better. If I act like I'm really trying to sell it, it doesn't go as well.
‐‐ Maria Bamford
In my standup work, I always do these characters, older people who are just off to the side. It's easier to write a story about the guy who made it to the top, but the middle is so much more interesting, so much more murky.
‐‐ Billy Crystal
In my state, over 17,000 households are going hungry on a regular basis.
‐‐ Patrick J. Kennedy
In my state, the Republican Party was the most progressive party.
‐‐ Edward Brooke
In my stories, I controlled what happened in a way I couldn't in real life. My characters lived through the horror and degradation of the cruelty of others and they not only survived, they thrived. They gave me hope and laughter, and they kept me going in spite of everything else. They were my heroes.
‐‐ Sherrilyn Kenyon
In my stories, whenever there's somebody wonderful and charming and bright and intelligent, that's me!
‐‐ Maeve Binchy
In my studio, it is unkempt and unattractive. Once I'm in my work, I don't notice where I am.
‐‐ Paul Auster
In my stunted career as a scholar, I'd read promissory notes, papal bulls and guidelines for Inquisitorial interrogation. Dante, too. Boccaccio... But after 1400? Nihil.
‐‐ Cathleen Schine
In my subconscious, my books were part of a single emotional journey.
‐‐ Jeanette Winterson
In my teaching, I enjoyed creating models to clearly communicate my thoughts.
‐‐ Erno Rubik
In my teaching, I try to expose my students to the widest range of aesthetic possibilities, so I'll offer them stories from Anton Chekhov to Denis Johnson, from Flannery O'Connor to A.M. Homes, and perhaps investigating all that strange variation of beauty has rubbed off on me. Or perhaps that's why I enjoy teaching literature.
‐‐ Chang-Rae Lee
In my teen years, I was hanging out with adults - Steven Meisel, Francois Nars, Oribe, Paul Cavaco. We had so much fun! We'd go out in New York.
‐‐ Christy Turlington
In my teen years leading up to the Olympics, I loved having the excuse to skip out on parties because of skating. Partying wasn't my thing anyway. Mostly I hung out with other skaters. We were all buddies, so it's not like I missed out on socializing. I was really enjoying myself.
‐‐ Dorothy Hamill
In my teenage years I was put off the idea of a career in flying, because I'd convinced myself that you had to be a boffin with degrees in maths and physics, which were my weakest subjects.
‐‐ Bruce Dickinson
In my teens and university and stuff, video games became more realistic, or they started to.
‐‐ Bryan Lee O'Malley
In my teens, I developed a passionate idolatry for a teacher of English literature. I wanted to do something that he would approve of more, so I thought I should be some sort of a scholar.
‐‐ Trevor Nunn
In my teens, I fell in love with the movies.
‐‐ Sean Penn
In my teens, I joined the Parachute Regiment. I jumped out of lots of airplanes, as much as the Government budget would allow us to. I did two active tours of duty: Northern Ireland, and then the Falklands war.
‐‐ Mark Burnett
In my teens I was interested in photography. Then I decided that I should learn something about the world of commerce. And I came to America at age 17 to escape Europe. I went to NYU - nothing better than being 17 years old and coming to New York.
‐‐ Nicolas Berggruen
In my teens, I was never part of the cool crowd.
‐‐ Jennifer Garner
In my teens, I worked as an aide in my community supervising and mentoring youth in various programs and delivering lunches to needy students.
‐‐ Hilda Solis
In my teens or twenties I wanted to do Blanche. Now I'm over that. Those roles are not attracting me now. Which is odd, because that's what most every actress would want to go do.
‐‐ Delta Burke
In my theater, I'm not trying to change the world.
‐‐ Robert Wilson
In my third husband I had discovered a blissfully laid-back type who thought it nothing less than hilarious when I misread the map on the way to Wales, so it took us an extra three hours, or when I was sick in a plastic carrier bag during much of the drive back from Devon - a bag that turned out to have a hole in it.
‐‐ Julie Burchill
In my third novel there is an actual black hole that swallows everything you love.
‐‐ Jonathan Lethem
In my thirties, I felt I had hold of one of the reins some of the time.
‐‐ Chaka Khan
In my thirties I found myself, to use a colloquial fiction, in a suburban house at the foothills of the Dublin mountains. Married and with two little daughters, I led a life which would have been recognizable to any woman who had led it and to many others who had not.
‐‐ Eavan Boland
In my time and neighborhood (and in my soul) there was only one standard by which a woman measured success: did some man want her?
‐‐ Jessamyn West
In my time as Archbishop of Canterbury I've seen a growing sense of unity and mission.
‐‐ George Carey
In my time in the U.S. Senate, I tried to craft an energy policy... I will be part of President Obama's efforts to achieve energy independence and enhance the landscape. I am also part of his reform agenda.
‐‐ Ken Salazar
In my time since moving to the United States, I've found that there is a dearth of great writing for black people. There are stories that depict us in a way that isn't cliched or niche, and that a white person, a Chinese person, an Indian person can watch and relate to. Those are the stories I want to be a part of telling.
‐‐ David Oyelowo
In my time, we served with noble and ethical leaders: Gerry Ford, Bob Michael, John Rhodes, men of impeccable honesty. We didn't have anybody locked up for a violation of ethics.
‐‐ Pete McCloskey
In my time, you needed to speak a little Italian, and that was it.
‐‐ Juan Manuel Fangio
In my town, and especially in my area, there were people from everywhere: Algerians, Senegalese, French people, Asians, all kinds of immigrants and natives, and everyone circulated.
‐‐ Tahar Rahim
In my town, I had only one adult American male role model: my father. I grew up taking it for granted that missionaries were what American boys grew up to be.
‐‐ Huston Smith
In my tradition, one must wait until one has learned a lot of Bible and Talmud and the Prophets to handle mysticism. This isn't instant coffee. There is no instant mysticism.
‐‐ Elie Wiesel
In my trailer, I work out with free weights and do situps and push-ups. I'm just trying to stay lean and active looking.
‐‐ Norman Reedus
In my travels, I also noticed that kids in Thailand like spicy food, and kids in India love curry. I'm hoping to introduce my son, Hudson, to lots of veggies and spices when he's young. I say that before he's started on solid foods, so it could be easier in theory than practice!
‐‐ Curtis Stone
In my travels, I have encountered cranes on three continents.
‐‐ Alex Shoumatoff
In my travels, which have been wider than ever man yet accomplished, I have seen many, many wild beasts of Arabia and India; but this beast, that is commonly called a Tyrant, I know not how many heads it has, nor if it be crooked of claw, and armed with horrible fangs.
‐‐ Apollonius of Tyana
In my twenties, I thought I was Robert De Niro and I invested all of myself in my acting. But, as I've got older, I've calmed down a bit. I've thrown my game plan out of the window.
‐‐ Matthew Rhys
In my twenties, I was a bit of a worrier; it bothered me what people thought of me, what job I was doing.
‐‐ Michelle Dockery
In my twenties, I was a huge, insane risk-taker.
‐‐ James Ransone
