People think that I don't like women.
‐‐ David Coverdale
People think that I don't work, and I fly around in Oprah's private plane doing whatever I want.
‐‐ Gayle King
People think that I'm a really outgoing person because of how I am on stage. But I'm not. I'm really shy.
‐‐ Joel Madden
People think that I'm conceited, and I'm not a nice person.
‐‐ Slick Rick
People think that I'm mean because I'm quiet, and I don't really go out places or because I don't really say too much. On the other hand, people think that I'm soft because I may not handle myself the way other people handle themselves. That's just not me. They don't know my background or none of that stuff.
‐‐ Derrick Rose
People think that I'm some kind of genius who's got these statements to say, and... I'm not really.
‐‐ Chris Lilley
People think that I'm very serious.
‐‐ Kate Mosse
People think that I must be a very strange person. This is not correct. I have the heart of a small boy. It is in a glass jar on my desk.
‐‐ Stephen King
People think that I popped out of my mother's womb singing 'Chasing Pavements'.
‐‐ Adele
People think that I work out but it's all t'ai chi.
‐‐ Lou Reed
People think that if they read something in the newspaper or see it on TV, it has to be true.
‐‐ Tammy Faye Bakker
People think that if you are a scientist you have to give up that joy of discovery, that passion, that sense of the great romance of life. I say that's completely opposite of the truth.
‐‐ Ann Druyan
People think that if you get a lot of views, the ad truck just shows up at your front door. That's just not true.
‐‐ Burnie Burns
People think that if you have a huge appetite, then you'll be better at it. But actually, it's how you confront the food that is brought to you. You have to be mentally and psychologically prepared.
‐‐ Takeru Kobayashi
People think that if you look fairly reasonable, you can't possibly act, and as I only care about acting, I think beauty can be a great handicap.
‐‐ Vivien Leigh
People think that if you've written a book and somebody's given you a pat on the back then, you know, it's all - you're all settled, you know? You're going to be fine. I know that if I'm not confused, and really afraid, my work isn't going to be any good.
‐‐ Barry Lopez
People think that Israelis are mean, evil people who only want to hurt Arabs all day.
‐‐ Naftali Bennett
People think that it is important to learn by assisting the great photographers. I say that is a big mistake. Be happy; just learn from any little guy. Learn how to use the camera - you don't need anything else. You can't be taught the real skill anyway.
‐‐ Peter Lindbergh
People think that it's their sovereign right to download music and not have to pay for it.
‐‐ Johnny Kelly
People think that just because you're a center, you're not as smart as the guards or the smaller guys.
‐‐ Patrick Ewing
People think that lemon is good for the voice, but it dries it out.
‐‐ Jill Scott

‐‐ Christopher Walken
People think that saving the planet or finding their place in that effort is a really overwhelming thought.
‐‐ Nikki Reed
People think that the arts are optional and they aren't. They teach a level of emotional depth that's equally important to mathematic skill. You can replace some math skills with a calculator if you know how to operate the thing, but there's no calculator for human interaction.
‐‐ Hal Sparks
People think that the directors direct actors. No. Really, what the director's doing is directing the audience's eye through the film.
‐‐ Julianne Moore
People think that the people in Hollywood have some master plan. They just make the movies that people go to see. I think it's that simple. I promise you if people were lining up around the block to see a Bible movie, they'd make Bible movies from now to the end of time.
‐‐ Alan Arkin
People think that theater actors are too big for the camera. It's like, 'No, we're actors and we adjust for our audience.'
‐‐ Megan Hilty
People think that their world will get smaller as they get older. My experience is just the opposite. Your senses become more acute. You start to blossom.
‐‐ Yoko Ono
People think that there is a country there that these people are only around when they are on CNN. I don't think that's limited to Haiti.
‐‐ Edwidge Danticat
People think that there is so much money in tennis, but the reality is unless you're ranked in about the top 50 you don't earn much at all. It is hard to support yourself travelling the world, to be away from home most of the year and to pay for a coach to help you become a better player.
‐‐ Samantha Stosur
People think that we bought a lot of things during Nawaz Sharif's time and that I am very close to him. I have never met Nawaz Sharif, one to one, in my life.
‐‐ Mian Muhammad Mansha
People think that what I see diving must drive what I put into films, but that isn't really the case. When I am making a Hollywood production, I am telling a different kind of story. Of course, if I see something interesting that works, we will look at it, but they are different things.
‐‐ James Cameron
People think that whatever I put into strips has happened to me in my life.
‐‐ Lynda Barry
People think that when they're playing it safe, they're trying to preserve what they have, but there is no preservation of what you have in music. There's no safety in music.
‐‐ Josh Homme
People think that when you're connected with other people it's more painful. The opposite is true. When you're connected to the river you have despair, but you also have joy, and there's a flow in the river.
‐‐ Eve Ensler
People think that, when you're doing comedy, nothing means anything, that people run around and act crazy. It's quite the opposite. The stakes are life-and-death.
‐‐ J. Smith-Cameron
People think that when you use Google you're finding exactly what you need, but really, you need expert help.
‐‐ Robert Darnton
People think that women don't negotiate because they're not good negotiators, but that's not it. Women don't negotiate because it doesn't work as well for them. Women have to say, 'I really add a lot of value, and it's in your interest to pay me more.' I hate that advice, but I want to see women get ahead.
‐‐ Sheryl Sandberg
People think that you can save calories by eating fewer meals a day, but it works just the opposite: the fewer meals you eat, the more counterproductive it becomes to you being able to lose weight.
‐‐ Ian K. Smith
People think that you have to do something huge, like go to Africa and build a school, but you can make a small change in a day. If you change Wednesday, then you change Thursday. Pretty soon it's a week, then a month, then a year. It's bite-size, as opposed to feeling like you have to turn your life inside out to make changes.
‐‐ Hoda Kotb
People think that you upload a video, and it goes viral, and then you're a YouTube star, and I'm like, 'Nah, no.' In total, with all of the channels I've done, I've uploaded anywhere from 400 to 1,000 videos to the Internet, and each one of those takes a whole day to make.
‐‐ Connor Franta
People think that young people don't care about things, but I think they do care; they just aren't super interested in conforming to what older people think are the right way to do things.
‐‐ Olivia Wilde
People think the earth is going to die and they have to save it. That's ridiculous. If you rid the earth of flowering plants, people would die, period. But the earth was without flowering plants for almost all of its history.
‐‐ Lynn Margulis
People think the free market is a philosophy, they think that it is a creed. It is none of those things. Free market is a bathroom scale, it is a measuring tape, it's simply a measurement.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
People think the gold medal is yours and they say you're going to win - but they have no idea how hard it is. People aren't doing it negatively - they're mostly lovely and they really do want you to win - but they don't understand the difficulty and intensity of competition.
‐‐ Jessica Ennis
People think they have a perfect idea of who you are from a four-second Snapchat video... and fake blogs, stories, magazine covers. In reality, that's not the case. Nobody knows who I am except family and my close friends.
‐‐ Kylie Jenner
People think they have to be ambitious. But at a certain age, all you want is to be around nice, decent people.
‐‐ Graydon Carter
People think they know who I am, because I've played so many very, very out gay men on stage, and they think that's me.
‐‐ Nathan Lane
People think they know you. They know the things about you that you have forgotten.
‐‐ Mick Jagger
