One of my favorite things in books is watching someone make the mistake. You know it's going to happen. You keep thinking: 'Don't do it!' But of course they're going to do it. It's riveting. You learn through them that it's okay. It's the ecstatic fall, where you watch someone make that terrible decision, and there's such pleasure in it.

One of my favorite things in the world is to be seeing two people that are really old, still holding hands, still kissing.
‐‐ Tommy Lee
One of my favorite things is mayonnaise and I have to tell you that. I love mayonnaise, but I don't eat it any more. If I do I put light mayonnaise on it, which I know is still not good but it's a lot better than the other one and I don't eat it that much.
‐‐ Mike Ditka
One of my favorite things is when people will ask for a song that I hadn't planned to play. It is really fun to see if you can remember something, and you don't always. I mean, sometimes it's just crash and burn.
‐‐ Lyle Lovett
One of my favorite things to cook is fondue. I'm Swiss. It's a great social meal.
‐‐ Ryan Seacrest
One of my favorite things to do is be in front of the camera and act.
‐‐ Angie Everhart
One of my favorite things to do is cook. I love taking the time to plan and prepare meals. I try to use all organic ingredients and make everything from scratch.
‐‐ Marisa Miller
One of my favorite things to do is formulate powers for a character, then come up with their corresponding weaknesses and liabilities. And I delight in world-building: melding the supernatural with the natural, then tweaking and polishing until it feels organic.
‐‐ Kresley Cole
One of my favorite things to do is go running early in the morning when everyone in my house is still sleeping. I throw on my iPod, and it's, like, my time.
‐‐ Kourtney Kardashian
One of my favorite things to do is not to speak on screen. In theater it's different because there's a lot of emphasis on language - it's a different medium. But that is one of the most wonderful things about film. A person's face can say so much more than their voice can.
‐‐ Linda Cardellini
One of my favorite things to do is play golf at Braemar Country Club. It's quiet and not overly crowded. The people are nice, and there's wildlife all around the course. As far as my game itself, I can go from a 10 handicap to a 30, depending on the day.
‐‐ Scott Baio
One of my favorite things to do is sit around and listen to old records... You're forced to listen to the whole thing. And it's so cool digging through the bins trying to find them. I get giddy about records.
‐‐ Ashley Monroe
One of my favorite things to do is to play music really loud and dance my butt off in the morning. I'll do it alone in my apartment. You can't have a bad day after that.
‐‐ Allison Williams
One of my favorite things to make is homemade sushi. I know how to make the rolls and it's really fun to do.
‐‐ Carly Rae Jepsen
One of my favorite times of year is around Christmas when my entire family gets together and we make tamales together. It's a full two-day event, and we create an assembly line. It's awesome because everyone has his or her own part in making the dish. It's so much fun.
‐‐ Sabrina Bryan
One of my favorite tools is 'flip it.' 'Flip it' can become your new favorite mantra when you are having one of those mean thoughts. You can choose to flip it and change how you are feeling about yourself in that moment. This is helpful at any age.
‐‐ Elizabeth Berkley
One of my favorite traditions is that my sisters and I, we all wear the same pajamas. I've even still got some from when I was 6. Also, I'll always remember cooking together in the kitchen and that no matter how busy our schedules are, we are all together for Christmas.
‐‐ Bailee Madison
One of my favorite vacation memories was the Thai foot massage and Internet access salons in Bangkok, followed up by my testing cellphone coverage while wading in Provincetown Harbor on Cape Cod.
‐‐ Kara Swisher
One of my favorite vacation places is Miami, because of the people, the water and the beach - of course - and the architecture on Miami Beach is so wonderful.
‐‐ Oksana Baiul
One of my favorite vampire movies is 'Nosferatu,' which has a palpable sense of dread that's a pre-war dread.
‐‐ Anton Yelchin
One of my favorite ways to eat albacore is tuna poke.
‐‐ Tom Douglas
One of my favorite ways to use cilantro is in a beautiful clear soup with monkfish and lime. It's a great dish for cooler weather, especially because monkfish is very good in fall and winter. Also, I like the meatiness and rich texture of monkfish.
‐‐ Nobu Matsuhisa
One of my favorite ways to write paranormal, as in the 'Wake' trilogy, is to write very normal characters with just a hint of something other-worldly. Like somewhere, maybe, someone really can get sucked into other people's dreams.
‐‐ Lisa McMann
One of my favorite - well, my favorite, favorite, absolute favorite event to go to is Alfre Woodard has a party that I call the blacktress party. It's, like, black actresses that either have been nominated for an Oscar or should have been, and it sort of is just a night where we all get in a room and we get to celebrate each other.
‐‐ Gabourey Sidibe
One of my favorite workouts to do with my girlfriends is yoga. We are equally impatient with our yoga. We are those people who are sweating in the back, and we'll be in downward dog giggling and looking at each other. And I know what we're all thinking: What are we going to order for dinner afterward?
‐‐ Summer Sanders
One of my favorite writers is Chekhov. I love his attitude toward the world. Just accept things for what they are. Don't judge. Be moral as you tell your story, but have no moral at the end. Just look at it.
‐‐ Pawel Pawlikowski
One of my favorite writers is Hans Christian Anderson. His stories speak to the times.
‐‐ Sandra Cisneros
One of my favorites has always been 'Swap Meet.' One of the reasons why I like that is it's a song that's in a drop-D tuning, and of course, also being a guitar player, it's one of the songs that I really like the riff on it.
‐‐ Chad Channing
One of my favorites is chilaquiles. It's corn tortilla chips in a simple, brothy tomato sauce with a little chile for heat. It's wonderfully homey. It has irresistible crispy bits and I love to eat it. And you can play around with it - add chicken, sliced red onions, or all these different things that can easily dress it up.
‐‐ Rick Bayless
One of my favorites is one called 'Rory's Radio' that I wrote about my brother Jeff's best friend growing up - his name was Rory Dunigan. I dedicated my first record to my brother, who got killed in a car accident in 1999, and I really didn't have any songs on the first album about him, nothing on a personal note.
‐‐ Ashton Shepherd
One of my favorites is 'The Sound of Music'. When Julie Andrews runs through the hills singing her head off, I always wish that a gust of wind would blow her skirt up.
‐‐ Mark Roberts
One of my favorites of all time was with Jim Jarmusch, called 'Dead Man.' I was in that with Johnny Depp. I ride really well, and I shoot a gun really well. I love the genre. Once I did Westerns, I was hooked.
‐‐ Lance Henriksen
One of my favorites to order in fancy restaurants is escargot.
‐‐ Kirsten Prout
One of my favourite actors of all time, although he doesn't necessarily play villains, is Peter Lorre.
‐‐ Robin Williams
One of my favourite actresses is Kate Winslet. She plays strong female characters and seems like she has a strong political awareness. I really like Naomi Watts and Juliette Lewis.
‐‐ Emily Perkins
One of my favourite books of all time: 'The Great Gatsby'. I just think it's so well written.
‐‐ Danielle de Niese
One of my favourite exhibitions is called 'Do It,' which I co-curated with the artists Christian Boltanski and Bertrand Lavier 21 years ago.
‐‐ Hans-Ulrich Obrist
One of my favourite films is called 'Lacombe Lucien,' directed by Louis Malle. The lead character in that film, like the lead characters in many '70s and '80s films, has a moral ambiguity to him.
‐‐ Joe Cornish
One of my favourite items is a very old jacket - it was my mum's uniform from when she was working 15 or 20 years ago.
‐‐ Astrid Berges-Frisbey
One of my favourite kinds of movie is the American picaresque, in which the characters make their way across the country, learning about life against the gorgeous backdrops of that vast land.
‐‐ Steven Pinker
One of my favourite messages about 'The Pirate Fairy' is that the story is about appreciating your own talents.
‐‐ Christina Hendricks
One of my favourite movies is 'Annie Hall' because it's about the silver lining of the break-up.
‐‐ Mike Birbiglia
One of my favourite movies is Billy Wilder's 'The Apartment.' It's shot in super wide screen, and it's beautiful.
‐‐ James Mangold
One of my favourite parts of acting is the clothes that you get to wear, because it's very important.
‐‐ Andrew Scott
One of my favourite pieces is 'Antony and Cleopatra' - I'd love to be in that. Or an alternative version of 'Romeo & Juliet' where I get to play Mercutio, something like that.
‐‐ Cynthia Erivo
One of my favourite things about country music is that, at least until recently, you could always count on a solid story, a punchline and a pun. I think it has that in common with hip hop, where they're not afraid of wordplay and I really appreciate that.
‐‐ St. Vincent
One of my favourite things growing up was 'Asterix', those books.
‐‐ Paul Giamatti
One of my favourite things to do is compete for a crowd. It's just really fun for me.
‐‐ Simone Biles
One of my favourite things to think about is, if you could be invisible and go back in time, where would you go? I've always said ancient Egypt. I would love to see them building the pyramids, and I've always had a real fascination with medieval time and monarchy in medieval times.
‐‐ Elizabeth Debicki
One of my favourites is 'American Beauty.' Spacey is so good in that.
‐‐ Christopher Mintz-Plasse
