What I try to keep an eye on is I don't work for the party bosses in Washington. I work for 26 million Texans.
‐‐ Ted Cruz
What I try to keep in mind is that there are going to be a lot of articles that are going to be misrepresentative of what I'm about as a person and as a writer.
‐‐ Alanis Morissette
What I try very hard to do is have an hour or so in the morning when I leave the house and don't have my phone with me. I'll go sit in a cafe and read and handwrite in my notebook and not be facing a screen. My head will be clear. I will be able to hear myself think. Because honestly for the rest of the day it's just screens, screens, screens.
‐‐ Jami Attenberg
What I used to do between writing fits was feed my kids, ride my horse and go shopping for cat and dog food.
‐‐ Anne McCaffrey
What I used to play was rhythm guitar before I saw Jack Bruce. I said, That's what I want to do in life. He was definitely the main influence.
‐‐ Geezer Butler
What I usually do is hoard money - I accumulate as much as possible in the fear of not having enough to pay tax.
‐‐ Mark Billingham
What I value in books is lucidity. I want the language to be rich; I love lexical fireworks on the page, but I have to know what it means. I want to be surprised and delighted, not merely baffled.
‐‐ Mal Peet
What I value most in my friends is loyalty.
‐‐ David Mamet
What I've absorbed of the gothic or paranormal has come mainly from films.
‐‐ Glen Duncan
What I've always been most interested in is exposing the way stories and fantasies reconstitute our everyday reality. What appears to be non-fiction is not only totally mysterious, unfathomable, and strange when you really look at what it is.
‐‐ Joshua Oppenheimer
What I've always done as an entertainer is try to come up with things that people will find interesting, or compelling, or humorous.
‐‐ James Taylor
What I've always found about going to a tailor is that it's a little bit daunting. You don't know exactly what it's going to look like, it's hard to know who to go to, and it's still a very expensive proposition.
‐‐ Aslaug Magnusdottir
What I've always lacked is a really strong band to back me up.
‐‐ Mick Taylor
What I've always loved about faeries is the way that they, unlike so many other supernatural creatures, are not human and have never been human. They have different customs and different taboos, and woe to anyone who breaks them.
‐‐ Holly Black
What I've always loved about gymnastics and one of the many reasons I love watching it now is the combination of skill and freedom it has - the discipline and expression - letting you dance.
‐‐ Gwendoline Christie
What I've always said about comedy is if you do it in the right way, you can say anything to anybody because they know where you're coming from. They know it's not malicious.
‐‐ Trevor Noah
What I've always said is that I'm opposed to institutional racism, and I would've, had I've been alive at the time, I think, had the courage to march with Martin Luther King to overturn institutional racism, and I see no place in our society for institutional racism.
‐‐ Rand Paul
What I've always thought I would do is make a bunch of movies and then stop to teach for awhile. And then just teach at film schools - you know, teach children.
‐‐ Eli Roth
What I've always tried to find in my books are points at which the private lives of the characters, and also my own, intersect with the public life of the culture.
‐‐ Salman Rushdie
What I've become convinced makes a writer are the days you hate it, the days you'd rather stick those pencils in your eyes. Sometimes I almost punish myself - if I'm not going be able to write, I'm not going be able to do anything else. I just sit there and wait.
‐‐ Ron Rash
What I've become good at is bringing things that aren't necessarily mainstream to the mainstream. What I did see on Twitter was a potential for mass publication; it's a mainstream consumer broadcasting device. It transforms customers and companies. You have to be transparent or you fail.
‐‐ Ashton Kutcher
What I've been conscious of, from the beginning is that I can't be Jil Sander.
‐‐ Raf Simons
What I've been developing is a vegan fast food chain and vegan food markets.
‐‐ Heather Mills
What I've been doing with my misfit, so-called acting career in film from day one on my first film, 'Spanking The Monkey', is, I've kind of made a concerted effort to hijack my acting career to turn it into film school, because I've always had the blasphemous idea of becoming a reasonably competent filmmaker in my own right some day.
‐‐ Jeremy Davies
What I've been noticing is people coming up to me and going, 'Are you an actor?' which is cool. That's ultimately what I want.
‐‐ Alfie Allen
What I've been surprised by is not how different people are, but how similar they are. There are certain types of Airbnb people, and they are in every city in the world - it's just that in some cultures, there is more of a generational divide.
‐‐ Brian Chesky
What I've been telling everyone that loves Carolina football is that we are going to put a team out there that, number one, is in good shape. We're going to be fit, we are going to be able to play the whole game and we're not going to poop out.
‐‐ Steve Spurrier
What I've certainly learned is that whenever I've said anything about real politics, I've come under attack. So it's best simply to play politics on television.
‐‐ Kevin Spacey
What I've come to believe is that psychological advice isn't worth much if it isn't rooted in personal experience.
‐‐ Timothy Noah
What I've come to know is that in life, it's not always the questions we ask, but rather our ability to hear the answers that truly enriches our understanding. Never, never stop learning.
‐‐ Lester Holt
What I've come to learn with self-publishing is that if you want to provide readers with something of equal quality, it requires the same amount of time and expense.
‐‐ Jane Green
What I've discovered and really confirmed to myself is that opera really likes loud colours, and you need something bold, something savage, unpredictable, passionate. You can't really run a two-hour opera round some muted murmuring.
‐‐ Ian Mcewan
What I've discovered is that in art, as in music, there's a lot of truth-and then there's a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth, but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for, my moment. It's the moment that the audience falls in love.
‐‐ Lady Gaga
What I've discovered is that my kids weren't watching the 'Today' show... they watch 'Gumby' and 'Bugs Bunny!'
‐‐ Jane Pauley
What I've enjoyed most, though, is meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. Good food is a global thing and I find that there is always something new and amazing to learn - I love it!
‐‐ Jamie Oliver
What I've figured out how to do is make people feel comfortable on television and on the radio, which enables me to have access to them, which is key for what I do.
‐‐ Ryan Seacrest
What I've found about 'Cinderella' is that what it provokes in an audience is really extraordinary. It appears to be a deceptively simple tale, but I've heard nothing but people drawing all different things out of it.
‐‐ Kenneth Branagh
What I've found - and the older I get, the more I understand this and stand behind it - is, my whole life has been an exploration of telling the truth. It's scary to be truthful, and it's scary to reveal yourself, and I'm very attracted to doing things that scare me.
‐‐ Jane Wiedlin
What I've found, and what Scripture tells us, is that your faith is not something on the side, something you carry with you - it is inherently who you are.
‐‐ Benjamin Watson
What I've found I really like about sci-fi is it can look at philosophical questions about humanity but in a different context. It can really make you think. That's what 'Doctor Who' does, even if it's a bit silly some other times.
‐‐ Sarah Snook
What I've found in doing research is that men want a relationship that feels fun. In other words, they want a relationship that has qualities or elements of their same-sex relationships - just like women do, too.
‐‐ Hill Harper
What I've found in my career is that 70 to 75 percent of comics are nice and have some sense of social skills, but there are those who end up in comedy because they don't know how to socialize. I don't want to deal with that group.
‐‐ Lewis Black
What I've found in my life with our children is that often you can give them advice and tell them to eat the right things, stay in shape and wear sunscreen, and they don't really want to listen. But then they hear it from someone else, and they do listen.
‐‐ Rick Pitino
What I've found is that there is a tremendous interest in these issues, across the political spectrum, sort of left-right terms we used to describe people don't really hold here exactly.
‐‐ Robert McChesney
What I've found recently is the heart, the soul, whatever you want to call it, it doesn't differentiate: If you really live the experience making a movie, it's the same as living it in real life, as crazy as it sounds.
‐‐ Paul Walker
What I've got to do now is let them judge me for who I am as an actor and not for my notoriety.
‐‐ Mickey Rourke
What I've learned about acting is that it needs to be mysterious. If you overthink how a beat needs to be played, it can trip you up.
‐‐ Kate Winslet
What I've learned about being a parent is how much you sort of secretly learn from everyone else and how valuable it is.
‐‐ Sarah Jessica Parker
What I've learned about marriage: You need to have each other's back; you have to be a kind of team going through life.
‐‐ Tom Petty
