‐‐ Alex Ebert
It's not that I wanted to be an actor; it's that I didn't want to be a dancer! I was trained in traditional Chinese dance, and after working so hard it seemed unfair to just disappear into a group.
‐‐ Ziyi Zhang
It's not that MySpace lost and Facebook won. It's that MySpace won first, and Facebook won next. They'll go down in the same order.

‐‐ Dave Eggers
It's not that our high school system was not designed well, but that it was designed in 1906 when the country was just out of the industrial era. There hasn't been a substantial systemic change the way we do high school since then.

‐‐ Gustavo Dudamel
It's not that sexual liberation or feminist messages are dead.

It's not that the film is violent, it's that people have an issue with violence right now.
‐‐ Thomas Jane
It's not that the Irish are cynical. It's rather that they have a wonderful lack of respect for everything and everybody.
‐‐ Brendan Behan
It's not that the system is broken, but clearly there are ways to improve the system, strengthen it, to make sure that we can put together the various bits and pieces of information in a way that allows us to stop every single terrorist out there.
‐‐ John O. Brennan
It's not that there are no masters, but that there are many. And the job of the solicitor general is to balance those masters and to accommodate them all, each in their proper places, wisely and well and in so doing to represent the people of the United States.
‐‐ Elena Kagan
It's not that there is a terrible morality in Hollywood. I think there isn't any. There isn't any, by and large.
‐‐ Alan Arkin
It's not that things won't change - they can't help but change. Things are becoming more and more competitive.
‐‐ Lu Guanqiu
It's not that we fly by the seat of our pants. We're not afraid of failure.
‐‐ Craig Ferguson
It's not that we like sad movies that make us feel like, 'Oh, my God, what a bummer.' We like emotionally moving experiences. It's nothing new. It's catharsis. It goes back to the Greeks.
‐‐ Gayle Forman
It's not that we need new ideas, but we need to stop having old ideas.
‐‐ Edwin Land

It's not that we use technology, we live technology.
‐‐ Godfrey Reggio
It's not that white guys shouldn't be allowed to engage in discussions on race in America. But there's nothing more exhausting than white male liberals' dogmatisms on race that were clearly formed during a conversation they had with that one black guy they met back in college.
‐‐ John Ridley

It's not the '90s anymore. I think the gay community is a lot more accepted these days.
‐‐ Tila Tequila
It's not the act of arrogance to draw, it's humbling - you must use your God-given talent. And of all the people I sketch, in most cases I feel I have to measure up to the subject.
‐‐ LeRoy Neiman
It's not the average people that come to my show.
‐‐ Young Jeezy
It's not the case of turning in a bunch of songs and recording the next month. I think you're looking for songs all year long and you're writing all year long.
‐‐ Keith Urban
It's not the case that carbon dioxide drives temperatures. When you leave Ice Ages, it's the other way around: The temperatures go up first, and then carbon dioxide levels go up.

It's not the drinking to be blamed, but the excess.
‐‐ John Selden
It's not the easiest life in the world, but then no life is easy.
‐‐ Dean Stockwell
It's not the easiest thing in the world to act with Harry - we are very close. I'm not saying it won't ever happen again but it's best to work with other people. There are no professional boundaries at which to stop when you act with a sibling.
‐‐ Luke Treadaway
It's not the end of the world if I can't get a film job, or if a movie doesn't turn out well - even though I don't like it when that happens. There are other things I enjoy doing, and I involve myself in them.

It's not the ideal situation to have two directors. It's just not the ideal thing.
‐‐ Donna McKechnie
It's not the Jews that killed Christ. It was a political situation, and it was the Romans who killed Jesus. They put Jesus on the cross, not the Jews.
‐‐ Monica Bellucci
