One thing Della Valle taught me is the power to say no if something isn't right. That mattered even over sales.
‐‐ Ines de La Fressange
One thing everyone seems to agree on is that Republicans face a perceived compassion deficit.
‐‐ Gary Bauer
One thing for me that modeling definitely did was that you go to do a different job every day, and you are working with a completely new team of people. You have to learn how to talk to people and how to creatively achieve the same goals. I think it just hones your people skills.
‐‐ Cat Deeley
One thing George R. R. Martin does is surprising things to main characters. But he says so himself.
‐‐ Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
One thing governors feel, Democrats and Republicans alike, is that we have a health care system that, if you're on Medicaid, you have unlimited access to health care, at unlimited levels, at no cost. No wonder it's running away.
‐‐ Mike Huckabee
One thing, however, I know with certainty: violence, or the direct threat of violence, of the kind we have seen in the past few days, is totally unjustified as a response to any published word or image.
‐‐ Timothy Garton Ash
One thing, however, is sure, - that in all cases the effort should be to impose all the cost of repairing the wrong upon the doer of the wrong. This alone is real justice, and of course such justice is necessarily free.
‐‐ Benjamin Tucker
One thing I always did in my career was writing. I always was writing. I was trying to create things. For myself, for other people.
‐‐ Aasif Mandvi
One thing I always heard from the begining when I talked about this being a movie - was that the rule is that animated movies don't work unless they're Disney movies for kids. Unless they're family movies.
‐‐ Mike Judge
One thing I always loved about hip-hop music was the raw, boom-bap element - it felt powerful and manly.
‐‐ Common
One thing I always make - and I'm sure this is partly to do with memory and yearning and because I've made it ever since my children were born - I make gingerbread every year. And it's partly just the perfume of the spices in the house, makes it smell like winter to me.
‐‐ Bee Wilson
One thing I always tell people. If you want to be gold medalist, you partner one.
‐‐ Howard Bach
One thing I am certain of is that, if I have done anything good in music, it was, first, because of my father, and second, because of my wife.
‐‐ Charles Ives
One thing I am really dying to do, while I'm still young and in shape, is an action movie. I would love to do a Lara Croft type of thing that's really physical and tough. I want to have a gun and do martial arts. I would love to get paid to get into the best shape of my life.
‐‐ Megalyn Echikunwoke
One thing I am sure of is that I won't judge a dance reality show.
‐‐ Kajol
One thing I believe completely is that the human heart remains the human heart, no matter how our material circumstances change as we move together through time.
‐‐ Geraldine Brooks
One thing I can say about George... he may not be able to keep a job, but he's not boring.
‐‐ Barbara Bush
One thing I can say about the Dallas Cowboys: They have always had talent around them. They have been one of the most talented football teams in all of football.
‐‐ Emmitt Smith
One thing I can say about the French language is that no one in the world loves their language as much as they do. It doesn't matter if you're close - it still sounds terrible to their ears.
‐‐ Mads Mikkelsen
One thing I can say about the Motown acts is that we were a family. That's not a myth.
‐‐ Smokey Robinson
One thing I can say right off the bat is that creating great editorial is a huge challenge, and you can't help but go through the process and not appreciate how valuable this skill is, and how much I admire the people who do this every day.
‐‐ Michael Wolf
One thing I can't do, and I hope that there are other people out there that feel the same way, is climb a rope. Oh my gosh, it's so hard to climb rope! It's all about grip and arms.
‐‐ Katy Perry
One thing I can take credit for, along with the rest of show business, is when the red ribbons were out, we cured AIDS. Any advancements that came towards fighting AIDS were not done by scientists or doctors - it was people with little ribbons on their lapels.
‐‐ Gilbert Gottfried
One thing I cannot stand is when people say, 'Hi, how are you?' and they don't wait to hear how I am. They're just going through the motions. I say to people: 'Keep it human. Keep it alive. Don't turn into a robot.' You have to hear what the other person is saying clearly.
‐‐ Judith Jamison
One thing I carried my whole life, especially from my grandparents in Chicago, was a huge idealism for the world.
‐‐ Abigail Washburn
One thing I congratulate everyone on is the great explosion which has occurred in Washington's Black House and the very important scandal which has gripped leaders of America.
‐‐ Ruhollah Khomeini
One thing I'd like to do is angel investing in small companies. That's what's exciting, and if you are lucky to have a bit of money, you can take those risks.
‐‐ Nick D'Aloisio
One thing I detest, I have to say, is when a shoe is too soft, and it's molding to the foot. This is quite disgusting. And I really, really hate incredibly long shoes, where the last is very pointy, almost like Aladdin.
‐‐ Christian Louboutin
One thing I detest most about the financial press is the lack of accountability. All sorts of nonsense is said without penalty.
‐‐ Barry Ritholtz
One thing I did was grow up as an ardent naturalist. I never grew out of my bug period.
‐‐ E. O. Wilson
One thing I didn't understand in life was that I had $100,000,000 in the bank and I couldn't buy happiness. I had everything: mansions, yachts, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, but I was depressed. I didn't know where I fitted in. But then I found family and friends and I learned the value of life.
‐‐ Vanilla Ice
One thing I do believe is I'm a believer in the presence of God. I believe that God is close. Whether it's in joy, pain or personal failure, I believe that God is close. That much I feel in my life.
‐‐ David Gregory
One thing I do know is that poetry, to be understood, must be clear.
‐‐ Mary Oliver
One thing I do personally started 20 years ago. I started meditating, and I know twice a day I can kind of let everything drop. It's just about being quiet, like drawing back the day, and it allows me to have energy.
‐‐ Hugh Jackman
One thing I don't like is complaints.
‐‐ Eric Ripert
One thing I don't personally like is not having that privacy I used to have. Being able to do whatever I wanted to do without people recognizing me. That makes me watch what I'm doing more carefully. I'm not going to be acting no fool.
‐‐ Marvin Sapp
One thing I don't want to feel is marketplace pressure, so I'm really glad I enjoy teaching because I can rely on that for a salary. I think it would be such a different game if I had to write a book that has to sell well.
‐‐ Aimee Bender
One thing I found very interesting about comedians around the world was their knowledge of stuff outside of their own culture and comfort zone. That's not very common in the States. We produce our own soft power, which is pop culture, but we rarely try to absorb and learn information from other cultures and countries.
‐‐ Hasan Minhaj
One thing I hate in movies is when the camera starts circling around the characters. I find that totally fake.
‐‐ Takeshi Kitano
One thing I hate is people screaming at me. If you want me to do something, talk to me.
‐‐ Mario Lemieux
One thing I have always promised is to be open and transparent and to treat employees and partners with respect and integrity.
‐‐ Brian Krzanich
One thing I have been banging on about, we have a dessert deficit in the U.K. We still import a very large proportion of our desserts. I would ask everyone to go out and buy a British dessert.
‐‐ Owen Paterson
One thing I have clear is that I don't want to work for money anymore.
‐‐ Antonio Banderas
One thing I have frankly decided is that when it comes to political reform we have two conservative parties in British politics. Both the Labour and Conservative parties have constantly and repeatedly failed to honour promises they have made about reforming, cleaning, modernising our clapped-out system.
‐‐ Nick Clegg
One thing I have learned in my painful career as a gambler is that bragging when you get lucky and win a few games will plunge you into gloom and unacceptable beatings very soon. It happens every time.
‐‐ Hunter S. Thompson
One thing I have learned in my time in politics is that if one of the parties is shameless, the other party cannot afford to be spineless.
‐‐ Frank Lautenberg
One thing I have noticed is that when you're a younger editor, you're more intense about it. As you go along, you relax a little. More and more, I feel that the book is the author's. You give the author your thoughts, and it's up to him or her to decide what to do.
‐‐ Jonathan Galassi
One thing I have seen over and over again in life is that there is virtually no correlation between intelligence and common sense. IQ doesn't seem to translate that way.
‐‐ Vincent Bugliosi
One thing I have throughout my career, it felt like I did my best to align myself with quality artists, quality work, and it is a situation of steel sharpening steel.
‐‐ Common
One thing I hear a lot is, 'Dude, my mom loves your record,' or 'I got it for my dad for Christmas.' I'm essentially doing dad rock. Which is great, because I love Steely Dan, you know? Nothing wrong with dad rock!
‐‐ Mac DeMarco
