I operate from a place of like water on a duck’s back. When things are thrown at me or said to me that aren’t worth my time, they don’t register with me. Like it just rolls off my back.
Now I know what it feels to be a working mother – it’s a mixed feeling. A part of me wants to face the camera, the other wants to stay with my son. But I am sure when the camera rolls, I’ll forget everything else.
I’m the kind of girl who just, like, rolls out of bed and puts my jeans on and shakes my hair out.
For me, Glasgow is all about the people and the spirit of the place. You have enough Gregg’s bakers, though, I’ll say that. The opening of the 1977 ‘Star Wars’ movie was possibly the only time I’ve seen a longer queue round the block than in Glasgow for sausage rolls. That was quite an eye-opener.
‘Constitutional’ is just a real pip of a word. Positively rolls off the tongue. In fact, it’s downright fun to say. ‘Con-stit-too-shun-al.’ It’s the verbal equivalent of skipping down the street with an ice cream cone in your hand. It’s like a semantic bag of Lays potato chips. You simply can’t just say it once.
My acting technique is to look up at God just before the camera rolls and say, ‘Give me a break.’
I like day-after-Christmas omelets, day-after Christmas pizzas… Or you take croissant rolls, put gravy on top, turkey, mashed potatoes, cheese, more gravy. That sounds good!
Since I was about seven, I’ve loved cooking. I’d wake up at five in the morning and make cinnamon rolls and all these different things.
I work on a musician’s week, so Monday is Friday. By the time Thursday rolls around, you stay in, and you work, and you don’t go out because it’s horrible.
Salomon Brothers, E. F. Hutton, Shearson, Lehman, Smith Barney… all these firms disappear, and the Street just rolls on.
We weren’t without food, but there were times when it was definitely a strain. I ate a ton of Hot Pockets and SpaghettiOs and Totino’s Pizza Rolls. I still enjoy those flavors.
No U.S. citizen is being kicked off any voter rolls.
Passive violence can be as simple as someone honking their horn at you for not turning fast enough when the light changes. And it can be highly complex, like when your co-worker undermines all of your work relationships by spreading rumors and lies about you. That’s how passive violence rolls.
I find that quite amusing – I used to get Deborah Kerr her sausage rolls.
If your girlfriend is saying, ‘Ugh, look at my stretch marks, look at my rolls,’ don’t say, ‘Yeah, I hate my thighs, too.’ Say, ‘No, you look really cute today – and I feel good, too!’
In theater, you get to rehearse several weeks, you memorize everything, and by the time you open, you know what the play is. In film, it’s almost the opposite. You do your work on your own and maybe have a couple of minutes to rehearse. When the camera rolls, you generally don’t know what’s going to happen.
Every time I have a hit, I buy a Rolls.
Marketing is not bragging, and touting one’s wares is not evil. The baker in the medieval town square must holler, ‘Fresh rolls!’ if he hopes to feed the townfolk.
Slang is a language that rolls up its sleeves, spits on its hands and goes to work.
Everyone who knows Puff knows Puff rolls with himself. His hustle is money. That’s what he does.
When I’m writing, I am concentrating almost wholly on concrete detail: the color a room is painted, the way a drop of water rolls off a wet leaf after a rain.
There are two kinds of stones, as everyone knows, one of which rolls.
I have driven school buses, sold egg rolls and painted houses, and I have often wondered what my life would have been like if I hadn’t gone into acting. Mind you, it’s a great life, going around pretending you’re other people and getting paid ridiculous sums of money for it.
Not every script that rolls in is ready to shoot. Few are, actually. So you go back and work on the thing.
The hardest part about writing fiction is finding long stretches of time to do it: for me, this means writing mostly on Saturdays and Sundays. But I am always thinking about my characters, jotting down ideas in stolen moments and hoping I’ll be able to make sense of them when the weekend rolls around.
I never settled because I wasn’t meant to pack toilet rolls or stack shelves.
First of all, it’s important to note that the federal government doesn’t have the authority to take anybody off of any voter rolls. The states are in control of each of their voter rolls in the 50 states.
People always expect you to be jumping out of a Rolls Royce and being in the papers for drunk and disorderly or sleeping around.
Authoritarianism doesn’t fall on a nation like a book falling from a shelf and striking you in the head. It rolls in like a slow tide.
Judicial Watch has a massive project to force states and counties across the nation to clean up their voter rolls.
When I over-prepare, I try to let it all go and forget all about it when the camera rolls, so I can just be present with the other actors and allow what’s going to happen to happen without too much preconception.
I took my son to an exhibition about inventing things, and he was so inspired he started collecting toilet rolls and empty bottles for his own ‘inventions.’
A rebel. That was me when I was younger. What was a rebel from New Jersey? A rebel was moving to the Village, not sleeping with top sheets, not eating a hot breakfast in the morning, not having 20 rolls of toilet paper and 10 boxes of Kleenex.
One of my favorite things to make is homemade sushi. I know how to make the rolls and it’s really fun to do.
Once a new technology rolls over you, if you’re not part of the steamroller, you’re part of the road.
Everybody calls it a purge, but when people move out of the state, they don’t need to be on our voting rolls if they’re living somewhere else. That’s how you get double voting.
There was a sketch group at Emerson, and if you could believe it, we were the cool kids. That’s how Emerson rolls. I was a film major, but I spent most of my time doing that.
Success is a sort of metaphysical experience. I live exactly as I did before – only on a slightly bigger scale. Naturally, I won’t be corrupted. I’ll sit there in my Rolls, uncorrupted, and tell my chauffeur, uncorruptedly, where to go.
It feels weird to say there’s more to me than that, like I’m being overdramatic, and a tear rolls down my cheek. But, no – I do like I feel like there’s more to me than just baseball.
You know, when you have a million plus names on the rolls, people who aren’t voting or are inactive, dead, people who have moved away, that’s a massive pool of potential voter fraud opportunities for those who want to be able to steal elections.
I can loop my tongue into multiple rolls.
The iPhone is like ‘omakase’, the style of sushi where the chef chooses what you’re going to eat, and might even tell you how to eat it – no wasabi allowed on this, no soy sauce allowed on that. Definitely no California rolls.
I come up with the ideas for my videos, and I write the lyrics and choreograph them, and I direct them and tell everyone what to do and how I want them to sing the parts and do the tongue pops and eye rolls and stuff like that.
The Rolls Royce was the real first car. It wasn’t the first new car I got, but it was the first real car I bought that’s like, ‘Wow, I got this.’
My dad made these dough balls and covered them up with a cloth in front of a gas fire, which was stuck on a wall. They were rising. In my head, I think they were the best rolls I’ve ever had. If there was a starting point for me, that was it.
Pre-competition rituals include nap time, because when competition rolls around, I’m a sloth. I also FaceTime my dogs.
People equate health to a picture in a magazine of a 6-foot-tall thin woman with her skin rolls Photoshopped and her waist edited to be tiny, so when they see bodies that jiggle and move around like they do, they assume it’s wrong.
From making it harder to register and stay on the rolls to moving and closing polling places to rejecting lawful ballots, we can no longer ignore these threats to democracy.
I grew up in Haifa and enjoyed the wonderful beaches and Mount Carmel that rolls into the Mediterranean Sea. From my early days at home, I remember a strong encouragement to study.
People say that making money in the content-media game is hard, and that is just, like, not my experience. It’s super-confusing, ’cause everyone’s like, ‘Oh, how are you going to monetize?’ It’s easy: just start talking, and then money rolls in.
We get picked up in these Rolls Royces and get three miles down the highway and five cop cars pull us over.
My brain kind of rolls pretty fast when I’m conscious. It’s constantly looking for stuff to do. Like if I’m in my house and I’m hanging out, I tend to be listening to music whilst watching a film whilst sending e-mails.
The food I eat the most is probably steamed, plain white rice. I know its really, really, really boring, but that’s honestly the food I eat the most. No, I like cucumber avocado rolls… I love that.
