I write mostly for pleasure, and the reading should ideally be for pleasure, too.
What we call barbecuing in this country is actually direct grilling. In many countries, it also means cooking in an enclosed box with a heat source, ideally wood, all year round.
Poems are ideally suited, in some ways, to social media because they pack so much meaning into so little language.
Theresa May… is ideally placed to implement Brexit on the best possible terms for the British people, and she has promised she will do so.
Ideally, I want to get out of the sport at least when I’m 30-31. I don’t want to be one of those guys who stays around too long, so I want to get as many fights in as I can.
The way I like to start a new project is to take a cover song and make a stab at it, ideally one that has nothing to do with the people in the room.
Ideally I’d like to be working steadily as an actor: movies, a TV series, that sort of thing. I’ve been through a few different TV development cycles, and they didn’t work out. When the time and project are right, it’ll come together. Like I tell a lot of guys, it’s not a race; there’s no finish line.
I think that’s the place ideally we’d like to get to as well, as queer people, where you can just judge the music for what it is and not just because it’s gay. I think it’s important that until we get to that place, statements have to be made, and we have to be loud and outward, so that’s where I’m coming from.
I started deliberately looking for characters, ideally outsiders and ideally Americans. So I just started reading widely, as I tell my students to do: read voraciously and promiscuously.
I always have Band-Aids, ideally ones with princesses on them, because they’re the best.
I’ve been obsessed with words since I was a little girl, and I am fortunate that each week as resident word expert on ‘Countdown’ I am ideally placed to quiz my guests in dictionary corner about the words and phrases they use.
Every news organization should ideally be as broadly representative as possible.
I felt from time to time that shooting live music is the most purely cinematic thing you can do. Ideally, the cinema is becoming one with the music. There is little artifice involved. There’s no acting. I love it.
Astronauts working for the government will always need to be either pilots or mission specialists. Those who want to be pilots should have military experience – ideally, a test pilot background.
Ideally, I’d like every issue to include a diverse group of stories that meet the qualifications sketched above, but covering a wide range of specific matter and flavour.
Naming something, putting it on record, in a lyric, feels like affirming people. Ideally, that’s what politicians should want to do: to put laws or policies in place that speak to people’s experiences, to make them feel heard.
Ideally, I’d like to write poetry for public performances and prose for a different, more contemplative kind of consumption.
My life, my family and my friends are back in the U.K., so ideally I would love the kind of career that is split between London and New York.
When you don’t get a certain quality of work, you end up doing lesser quality of work because there’s no work. I’m a professional actor, I have bills to pay so I end up taking work which ideally I wouldn’t have.
Ideally, you want to play games, and you don’t want to train every day without the matches.
I’m sure every designer has a certain person in mind who they would ideally like to wear their clothes, but the problem is that a lot of the time that person doesn’t actually exist, unless she is a 15-year-old model.
I think that the essence of a Christmas wreath – of all Christmas vegetative decoration – has to be green and, if possible, living. So the basis of a wreath is ideally holly, laurel, ivy, rosemary, larch, fir or whatever is to hand.
I think that one of the strengths of Cop Shoot Cop lay in the different, and at times, clashing personalities, Ideally, I want to have both ways of working in my life.
Although a great restaurant experience must include great food, a bad restaurant experience can be achieved through bad service alone. Ideally, service is invisible. You notice it only when something goes wrong.
Look, ideally I’d like to have free money to give to everybody. The reality is in government you have to choose and make decisions.
I ideally would like to do three films every year. Every day, I pray for it. But I should like a script before I sign on a film.
I’m never happier when writing than when I see gags taking shape – ideally, gags at my own expense. What I like is the shuttling back and forth, serious into comedy and vice-versa, ideally, both in the same sentence, or even simultaneously. The best jokes are always ideas in miniature.
I think whether you’re old or young, we’re all trying to do the same thing, and it’s random who we click with. Ideally, you’d want to collaborate with a Christopher Nolan or somebody like that, starting out, and build those friendships.
Yeah, ideally, I’d probably wish to be more anonymous. But scrutiny and success go together. And I want to be successful.
With stand-up you can just be yourself on stage. And ideally, you can’t see the crowd most of the time – it’s just lights in your face. But I still have had terrible stage fright.
On radio there’s an obligation to be funny or interesting, and ideally both.
Growth-hacking is about scalability – ideally, you want your marketing efforts to bring in users, which then bring in more users.
Ideally, a dancer should put in 10 hours of daily practice to deliver a polished performance.
You know what isn’t class warfare? Progressive taxation, as in, say, expecting billionaires to pay at least as much in taxes as their secretaries. Ideally, in fact, they should pay more.
It’s important to know the jam-packed power of certain foods that will not only protect you from a myriad of health issues, but also will help you with hormone balance. Ideally, your food choices should be organic and pesticide free.
I wouldn’t say that I’m actually trying to cause chills in the audience, but certainly my goal is to, at the very least, effect a physiological response – at the most, to effect some sort of state change, ideally, in the audience.
Ideally, it would be five days a week, spending at least an hour at the gym doing cardio three of those days and resistance training all of those days. My cardio is typically interval training.
We all put obstacles in our own path toward personal style, myself included. If we understood why we constructed these practical and emotional obstacles, we might move beyond it to healthier, happier perceptions of ourselves and, ideally, a better sense of self-esteem.
Reading while I’m writing ideally inspires my competitive side. When I read great writers, I want to be a better writer.
Ideally, it’s great to gain inspiration from the script, but when filming starts, characters and their journeys can change.
People forget that boxing is the art of self-defence – ideally, hit and not be hit – and maybe we should all think about that a bit more.
Ideally, I like to integrate the human issues into the suspense story itself.
As a technology, the book is like a hammer. That is to say, it is perfect: a tool ideally suited to its task. Hammers can be tweaked and varied but will never go obsolete. Even when builders pound nails by the thousand with pneumatic nail guns, every household needs a hammer.
Ideally, we date the folks who are dating for the same reason we are.
Ideally a book would have no order to it, and the reader would have to discover his own.
Ideally you want every relationship to work, if it happens it’s great, if it doesn’t it is unfortunate.
Ideally a book would have no order in it, and the reader would have to discover his own.
My own advice to people who would be in office for two or three terms is that they must accept democratic rotation: ideally, not put themselves up for re-election and allow the system to work.
The United States needs a much more progressive tax-and-transfer infrastructure, given how dramatically inequality has increased. But not every single policy needs to be ideally progressive to achieve that goal.
Ideally, a good pastor wants to empower a congregation to the point where they don’t need him. You want everyone to leave feeling better.
Nobody really wants to bowl a bad over, but if it happens, the individual is more disappointed than anyone else in the stadium or the team. Ideally, it is best to leave him to this thoughts and then have a chat with him after the team is back at the hotel when he will be less frustrated and more accepting.
It seems that for all of the artists signed to a major, there exists the same amount of artists that are struggling to break through to the surface within the label. I think, ideally, we’d end up with a very well connected competent indie team that will be along with us for the ride, however long that ride may be.
