James Bond has a license to kill, rockstars have a license to be outrageous. Rock is about grabbing people's attention.
‐‐ Gene Simmons
James Bond is one of those heroes that all guys feel they could actually be like.
‐‐ Pierce Brosnan
James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond.
‐‐ Ken Follett
James Bond was an early favourite, although I didn't understand much of it. I read the Bible a lot, too. You might say that this was my favourite, since I seemed to read it so often.
‐‐ Philip Kerr
James Brown became my father. He would talk to me the way a father talked to a son. He became the father I never had.
‐‐ Al Sharpton
James Brown died owing me $50,000. But I loved James Brown.
‐‐ Don King
James Brown is important because he decorates the clock correctly and he's good with lower mathematics. Don't get me wrong - he's good.
‐‐ Captain Beefheart
James Brown is the perfect example of flashy but classy. Classy doesn't have to mean boring. His gear was flamboyant but without being so over the top. The cape was probably the biggest part of his persona. He looked like Superman.
‐‐ Mayer Hawthorne
James Brown is the reason I play guitar.
‐‐ Kevin Eubanks
James Brown's life was really a metaphor for our inability to talk about matters like race and class in America.
‐‐ James McBride
James Brown's music still sounds as fresh and as good and as new as it did when he first created it.
‐‐ James McBride
James Brown was my favorite, my absolute idol. Every time I played with him was like a music lesson, and I never thought I could be so funky! I mean, a white boy from Canada - a Jew - getting down with his funky bad self!
‐‐ Paul Shaffer
James Brown was one of the first artists who found four bars that he liked and played them the entire way through, and then he just added to it vocally.
‐‐ Brian Austin Green
James Brown was the Monday-to-Friday guy. He was the hardest man in show business. He was like your dad and your uncle: He showed up, and he hit hard.
‐‐ James McBride
James Cagney, Steve McQueen, I loved all those guys. I grew up loving the movies but had no desire to be in them.
‐‐ Mark Wahlberg
James Cain was saddled with being called the father of hardboiled fiction. Apparently, he didn't like this saddle.
‐‐ Bill Callahan
James Cameron has always been way ahead of the curve in terms of the use of technology in his movies.
‐‐ Joe Morton
James Cameron's films have always been distinguished by ground-breaking technical excellence.
‐‐ Roger Ebert
James Cotton is a real blues guy, and he played with Muddy Waters, and it surprised me that they would want me to make a record with them, that he called me to do this record. I'd never done anything like that before. But I love blues, so I was very happy.
‐‐ Charlie Haden
James Dean was always a tortured soul.
‐‐ Ansel Elgort
James Finch has always had pretty stout cars for the restrictor-plate races and I know we'll be very competitive at Daytona.
‐‐ Kurt Busch
James Finch is exactly what I'm looking for, as far as getting back into the race car to have fun.
‐‐ Kurt Busch
James Franco has this interesting and relaxed look. It's pretty 'I don't care,' but it still looks good. Ryan Gosling also has amazing style. I take a lot of my fashion tips from those two. In my opinion, they're the ones getting it right.
‐‐ Josh Henderson
James Franco is a Method actor. I respect Method actors, but he never snapped out of character. Whenever we'd have to get in the ring for boxing scenes, and even during practice, the dude was full-on hitting me.
‐‐ Tyrese Gibson
James Garner is like a peaceful river through our chaos.
‐‐ Kaley Cuoco
James Garner was a gift to our business and an example of honesty and pure class. It was an honor to have worked beside him and receive his bear hugs every day.
‐‐ Kaley Cuoco
James Horner, James Newton Howard, John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Michael Giacchino, or Ramin Djawadi would all be a dream come true for a 'Throne of Glass' soundtrack.
‐‐ Sarah J. Maas
James Ivory comes close to the actors for the first rehearsal. He more or less lets you direct yourself and then will only correct you if he finds it incorrect.
‐‐ Leslie Caron
James Joyce - an essentially private man who wished his total indifference to public notice to be universally recognized.
‐‐ Tom Stoppard
James Joyce was a synthesizer, trying to bring in as much as he could. I am an analyzer, trying to leave out as much as I can.
‐‐ Samuel Beckett
James McBride's 'The Good Lord Bird' is set in the mid-19th century and is based on the real life of John Brown, the one who lies a-mouldering in his grave.
‐‐ Justin Cartwright
James Morrison just had a new album come out and I think he's incredible. I'd love to work with him, his voice is insane.
‐‐ Kevin McHale
James Patterson has a way with female characters. He understands women in a way that a lot of male writers don't.
‐‐ Tracy Pollan
James Ralston, my guitar player, has performed with Tina Turner for about 22 years. Jim Hanson on bass has played with Johnny Cash, Rodney Crowell and Bruce Springsteen, and they're fantastic musicians and amazing singers they get a really cool vocal sound together.
‐‐ Vonda Shepard
James Remar is a student of life.
‐‐ James Remar
James's expedition to Scotland is wholly imaginary, though there appears to have been space for it during Henry's progress to the North to pay his devotions at Beverley Minster.
‐‐ Charlotte Mary Yonge
James Salter has been a fighter pilot, a rogue, and a climber. He counts Robert Redford as a friend.
‐‐ Stephen Rodrick
James Salter has talents on the page we novelists would sell souls to the devil for.
‐‐ Sarah Hall
James Salter is a consummate storyteller. His manners are precise and elegant; he has a splendid New York accent; he runs his hands through his gray hair and laughs boyishly.
‐‐ Edward Hirsch
James Stewart was so kind and considerate and had such personal integrity.
‐‐ Brigitte Bardot
James Taylor is the kind of person I always thought the word 'folksinger' referred to. He writes and sings songs that are reflections of his own life, and performs in them in his own style. All of his performances are marked by an eloquent simplicity.
‐‐ Jon Landau
James Taylor may be an all-American boy but he isn't Horatio Alger, and the lionizing of many rock stars by the rock press has as much to do with old fashioned rags-to-riches stories as does the straight culture's deification of its idols.
‐‐ Jon Landau
James, that's a bad situation. I'm not saying it's not repairable, but it's pretty far. When you go from being in one of the best bands in the world to some cover band... as far as I'm concerned, he was playing down at the pub.
‐‐ Billy Corgan
James Thurber was an inspiration because his drawings were so primitive. I am self-taught - I didn't go to art school - so I thought when I started doing them, 'If James Thurber can be a cartoonist, I can,' because his stuff is very raw.
‐‐ Bruce Eric Kaplan
James Van Der Beek and I go way back. We were in the movie 'Angus' together in 1994 or 1995, so I've known him for a million years.
‐‐ Kevin Connolly
James was my given name, but I was a junior; so I was Jamie as a kid.
‐‐ James Denton
James Woods is great. I actually did a movie with James Woods in 2000: 'John Q.'
‐‐ Kevin Connolly
Jamestown changed the world in many ways, but perhaps it shaped our nation most profoundly the day Africans arrived. I can't think of a more relevant place to talk about the issues facing our community today than the place where African culture became American culture.
‐‐ Tavis Smiley
Jamie Dimon and J.P. Morgan are contributing millions to the Remain campaign because they do very nicely, thank you, out of the E.U.
‐‐ Michael Gove
