Thankfully, I have other skills than just standing there and looking cute.
In my generation, thankfully, as somebody who served in the Afghanistan War, would have served in the Iraq War, if called to do so – was also strongly against the Iraq War, from the beginning – I’m so thankful that we live in a moment that we can honor the troops separately from policy.
I eat what I want, in moderation. I gravitate toward fresh veggies and clean foods, thankfully, but I am also a sucker for a cupcake every once in a while.

Thankfully, President Obama has stood firmly behind women’s health care issues by supporting coverage for contraception and reaffirming commitment to organizations like Planned Parenthood.

Thankfully my fans and well wishers have always being with me, and without my fans I am no one.
When I dropped out of school at 19 to start my first job in Hollywood, I didn’t know anything, and I had no idea where I’d end up. Thankfully, I was attached to some smart and forgiving people who let me learn under them.
I’m not much for cats. I’m terrified of mice. I’ve worked a lot with elephants, and they are extremely intelligent and sensitive, and thankfully, they seem to like me. You never want to get on the bad side of an elephant. And never trust a chimp.
What people like to comment on a lot is that I grew up in a religious family; my father is a pastor, and now I’m playing the devil. Thankfully, my family see the humorous side of the job.
Thankfully, the meat of the Tony telecast is the performances from the shows, so the awards show kind of creates itself around the season, and then I fill in based on the vibe of the season in general. I’m happy that there’ll be so many legitimately good performances on the show.
I’m an addict, I’m addicted to success. Thankfully, there’s no rehab for success.
Playing Lord Ram is a once in a lifetime opportunity and, thankfully, people were convinced with my interpretation of the divine character all those years ago.
For my whole career, I’ve been a singer-slash-songwriter, even though I’m very thankfully known for my voice. Songwriting has always been a joy in my life, and to be recognized for it is extremely validating.
Early on, I tried fiction, but I wasn’t very good at it. I wrote a very bad novel that is thankfully sitting in a drawer somewhere.
You have to find a way – and thankfully for me, it’s been music – to separate yourself from the racial identity. It’s not easy, and I continue to work, God bless, and I’m really, truly appreciative of it.
My brother and I had a lot of freedom growing up, and thankfully, we both turned out OK.
If these hands, used to fighting, would be acceptable to His Holiness, we most thankfully dedicate them to the service of him who deserves so well of the Church and of the fatherland.
Thankfully, Australia has emerged from its inauspicious colonial beginnings to become a proud nation, a nation that overcame those primeval prejudices.
Thankfully, there was not a lot of social media around when I was growing up.
Thankfully ‘Uyir’ happened. Things have changed for good since then.
If I was someone who wanted to do just love-interest roles then I’d be in a difficult position. But thankfully I’m someone who likes to do things that are edgy and different.
I don’t feed into negativity. I thankfully don’t. That’s just me.
Thankfully, I found a doctor at Presbyterian Hospital in New York, Scott Hammer, who diagnosed my chronic fatigue as the Epstein-Barr virus, and the medication I took either helped jump-start my immune system or made the virus dormant. I was very lucky.
Thankfully, I was able to go to Marquette University and get my education, a Catholic education, so I could please my family, because I think they wanted me to be a priest.
Thankfully, I have never experienced a miscarriage, but I have friends and family who have, and I’ve talked to them about their feelings.
Since I was five or six years old, I just wanted to be a professional football player. I wanted to play against the best players. I wanted to play in big stadiums in front of big crowds, and I was desperate to play for my country one day, and thankfully, I was lucky enough that happened.
Thankfully I have good genes and a fast metabolism, which doesn’t make me put on weight easily.
Thankfully, President Trump doesn’t just complain about problems – he solves them.
After ‘American Idol,’ I got a lot of ‘stuck up’ rumors that just fueled the never-ending flames of high school drama. Thankfully, my real friends always stood up for me and knew I wasn’t like that.
With others, I feel betrayed that those who had the authority in the Church to stop Brendan Smyth failed to act on the evidence I gave them. However, I also accept that I was part of an unhelpful culture of deference and silence in society and the Church, which thankfully is now a thing of the past.
In 1999, when Ted Williams came out and saluted the fans at the All Star Game at Fenway, I had a huge lump in my throat, and the producer is yelling in my ear to talk, and I couldn’t, thankfully, and it was much better.
If I’m playing a real-life person, I would take notes, I think that’s important. For instance, when I played Rosemary Clooney, I was lucky enough to meet her; thankfully, she was still with us. And I talked with her and read her book, so when it’s a real person, I want to find out everything I can.
You know I tore my MCL in the fight with Till. We did an MRI and thankfully nothing else was damaged.
I’ve got more freckles than just about anybody. My children didn’t get them, thankfully. They have tiny little freckles.
I love cricket. Thankfully, I didn’t make a career out of it. Otherwise today I’d have been working in a bank.
Thankfully, I don’t have a real mullet.
In the ’60s when I was a student, there was this campaign to destroy 75 percent of the old buildings in Paris, replacing them with modern architecture. I realized this as a dangerous utopia. This modern vision did not understand the richness of the city. Thankfully, such destruction did not happen.
I knew I wanted to get into acting and my parents were fine with that. My brother, thankfully, became a barrister so I went under the radar.
There’s a time where people were out holding posters in protest outside shows I was doing, and thankfully, we’ve moved past that. And a lot of country stations wouldn’t play me. They were more conservative than I was.
Thankfully, we live in country, unlike Russia, where we have First Amendment rights.
Our films are now portraying the real woman of today, and thankfully, female characters are pretty close to reality. This is a welcome change, and I think it is a reflection of our society.
Usually working in a film does not affect my personal life in any way, thankfully!
The beauty of Rome is that you can wander into a pizzeria just about anywhere and get a real Italian pizza that’s thankfully worlds away from the Super Supreme I used to order at Pizza Hut as a kid.
Thankfully, roads have opened that could lead us out of this Brexit crisis. One obvious solution, which is fast gaining support, is to hand the issue back to the country. I would add that we also need formally to take no deal Brexit off the table, because that way lies chaos and disaster.
It used to be that you had to make female TV characters perfect so no one would be offended by your ‘portrayal’ of women. Even when I started out on ‘The Office’ eight years ago, we could write our male characters funny and flawed, but not the women. And now, thankfully, it’s completely different.
