People have always thought that I wasn't ambitious. They judged by appearances and were fooled. I was competitive. I wanted success and was willing to work for it.
‐‐ Perry Como
People have always told me a lot that I remind them of Joyce DeWitt.
‐‐ Jane Wiedlin
People have always told me I look young for my age... and I think it's because I've always taken care of myself.
‐‐ Ian Ziering
People have always tut-tutted about actors stepping out of line politically. And I can sort of see it because what you've got your fame for is not being someone who can influence things, so it's cheating.
‐‐ Joanna Lumley
People have always wanted to be recognized, and that's human nature. But people used to want to be recognized for their accomplishments, and now they simply want to be visible.
‐‐ Diablo Cody
People have an awful lot of problems that society has put on them and a lot to work through because of it.
‐‐ Dana Plato
People have an idea that one is in control of a career, a lot more than you really are. You can engineer things to an extent. But you are at the mercy of what comes in across the desk.
‐‐ Gary Oldman
People have an idol they want to be like and try to follow what the idols did. But when you do, you find out you're not very successful and you're not very happy. You try to copy these models, and it doesn't yield successful results.
‐‐ Clayton Christensen
People have an image of Italians. When I go somewhere in the world, I don't care where it is, when they look at me it's not about my intelligence. It's who can I beat up.
‐‐ Danny Aiello
People have an opinion of Africa and it is not so good, but we have to let sport unite us all.
‐‐ Didier Drogba
People have asked me a lot of times, because I didn't hit a lot, how long a dozen bats would last me. Depending on the weight and model I was using at that time - I would say eight to 10 cookouts.
‐‐ Bob Uecker
People have asked me a lot, 'What comes first? The pictures or the story? The story or the picture?' It's hard to describe because often they seem to come at the same time. I'm seeing images while I'm thinking of the story.
‐‐ Chris Van Allsburg
People have asked me about playing outsiders. I don't consider myself an outsider. Maybe that's why I'm interested in that. I'm not really sure.
‐‐ Paul Dano
People have asked me about the 19th century and how I knew so much about it. And the fact is I really grew up in the 19th century, because North Carolina in the 1950s, the early years of my childhood, was exactly synchronous with North Carolina in the 1850s. And I used every scrap of knowledge that I had.
‐‐ Allan Gurganus
People have asked me, 'Is it about Apple or is it about Jobs?' and I say it's about how a man becomes his company and the company becomes the man. That has only happened a few times, like it happened with Ford, I think, they became inextricably linked together.
‐‐ Joshua Michael Stern
People have asked me why are Australians and Brits so good at American accents, and it's quite simple. We grew up listening to the American sound on our TV. That's why American actors have a hard time with foreign accents.
‐‐ Dominic Purcell
People have asked me why I made the first chapter of my first novel so long, and in an invented English. The only answer I can come up with that satisfies me is, 'To keep out the scum.'
‐‐ Alan Moore
People have bad things to say about publishers, but I think they still have services, and I want to see what they are. And if they end up not being any good, I don't have to keep using them.
‐‐ Amanda Hocking
People have become aware that way that we've been eating is making us sick.
‐‐ Alice Waters
People have become disillusioned with Parliament, and that threatens democracy.
‐‐ John Rhys-Davies
People have become less discriminating listeners, which is tragic, really. There's a lot of emperor's new clothes out there, whether they're female or male solo acts. That bothers me. It's hard to break through, and it's like climbing Mount Everest if you actually do.
‐‐ Paula Cole
People have become shallower. They view spending, entertaining, seeking leisure and enjoying as the main objectives of their life.
‐‐ Zhang Yimou
People have become so much more obsessed with the stories behind their food. When we go the market to buy bacon, we want to know where that pig came from and what processes were involved in getting it to us.
‐‐ Michael Paterniti
People have been able to see that as cheeky and as flirty as I am, I am not the dreadful slapper that the press used to portray me as. But it will probably all turn around and people will hate me again in a couple of years.
‐‐ Amanda Holden
People have been born in refugee camps and they are getting tired of that.
‐‐ Javier Bardem
People have been convinced that growth for growth's sake is a good thing.
‐‐ Tom Scholz
People have been dealing with health long before there was science, certainly before nutrition science. We're constantly reading about scientific studies that support old wives' tales.
‐‐ Michael Pollan
People have been doing this for hundreds of thousands of years: using whatever is available to build shelter. If you ponder what could be used, then building materials are everywhere.
‐‐ Dan Phillips
People have been frying foods since Jesus was on this planet, and there is always going to be greasy, fried, salty, sugary food. It is up to the individual to walk in and say, 'I don't want those fries today.'
‐‐ Richard Simmons
People have been killing because of racial differences since the time of Adam and Eve, but in this country racism has been primarily aimed at African Americans.
‐‐ Bob Cousy
People have been listening to Burning Spear for a long time now, and they know who I am and what I stand for. Yes, I do address many of the same ideas from album to album, adding only a little different flavor or coloring. Yes, the message has remained virtually the same because the issues haven't gone away yet.
‐‐ Burning Spear
People have been looking for love potions since hunter-gatherer societies.
‐‐ Helen Fisher
People have been savaged by a predatory economic and political system, and some are turning to Trump. Unfortunately, Trump is just more of the same.
‐‐ Jill Stein
People have been so supportive of this career for so long, and they are still enjoying the music that I bring to them.
‐‐ Dionne Warwick
People have been talking about competition among insurers, and what they really need to be talking about is competition in the delivery of health care as well.
‐‐ Angela Braly
People have been to jail when they're innocent. I knew I would never miss a single ball on a snooker table on purpose and, until then, I was sure the evidence would support me.
‐‐ John Higgins
People have been told so often that resurrection is just a metaphor, and means Jesus died and was glorified - in other words, he went to Heaven, whatever that means. And they've never realized that the word 'resurrection' simply didn't mean that.
‐‐ N. T. Wright
People have been turned away from hospitals simply because they have no insurance. People have been put out of hospitals because they have reached the lifetime caps.
‐‐ Sheila Jackson Lee
People have been very strong against Obamacare since I was first elected, and they still feel that way. They want us to work to get rid of it. They also are very strong for keeping the government running.
‐‐ Chuck Fleischmann
People have been warning us that language was going to the dogs ever since Latin started turning into French. Yet the dogs in question never seem to emerge yelping on the horizon.
‐‐ John McWhorter
People have been watching me since I was eight. They've been watching me grow up, so they feel that connection with me.
‐‐ Kyle Massey
People have called me Superman my whole life. In various sports, that seems to be the common theme. My favorite superhero is actually the Incredible Hulk. He's the only superhero that can't die.
‐‐ Robert Griffin III
People have challenged me all my life, told me I wasn't fast enough, wasn't smart enough, but you know what? No one's ever outworked me. My definition of tired and most people's definition of tired are two totally different things.
‐‐ Jon Runyan
People have choices. They are going to vote with their feet.
‐‐ Thomas Perez
People have come to me for my opinion since 'October Baby.' But, hey, look, I'm an actor who is very fortunate to be in a movie that's making wonderful noise, and hopefully helping parents and children to be a little closer. Leave me alone. I'm not talking about politics. I'm just trying to have a conversation with my own kids.
‐‐ John Schneider
People have come to me over the years and said to me: 'I admire the culture of Starbucks. Can you come give a speech and help us turn our culture around?' I wish it were that easy. Turning a culture around is very difficult to do because it's based on a series of many, many decisions, and the organization is framed by those decisions.
‐‐ Howard Schultz
People have confused playing devil's advocate with being intelligent.
‐‐ Cecily Strong
People have contemplated the origin and evolution of the universe since before the time of Aristotle. Very recently, the era of speculation has given way to a time of science.
‐‐ George Smoot
People have created feuds between me and other artists.
