I am playing with the assumptions that we have in our everyday life when we are tripped up or fooled and we learn something, that makes things exciting – I am having fun with that stuff, but you have to manage it so it doesn’t get too cute, that’s what I trying to work toward.
Some people had fathers who were bankers or farmers, my father made films, that’s how I saw it. As for the movie stars, they were just around, some of them were friends, others weren’t, it was all just a part of my everyday life.
Oh, I still like dresses. I’ve still got plenty of them. It’s just that I don’t put them on specially for photo-shoots anymore. It’s just part of my everyday life.
I take my inspiration for the song writing from little experiences, not even if I’ve experienced them myself but say if something has made me sad, I will use that emotion. I just use everyday life and write about it.
Much of everyday life is filled with opportunities to be distracted. Our possessions… entertainment… cares and anxieties… and even the passionate desire and pursuit of things, some good and not so good, can keep our minds and hearts caught up in a flurry of activity.
I’m from Tuscaloosa, and I just grew up with Alabama football just being a part of my everyday life. I drove by campus every other day as a child. ‘Roll Tide’ was an everyday thing to say.
When people in Vancouver do recognize me, they hide it. I went to a store near my home and I know they’re ‘Battlestar’ fans – they have pictures on the wall! – and I know they know me, but everyone was so smooth and pretended I wasn’t there. Most people don’t realize how good they are at acting in everyday life.
For most Olympic athletes, their training is their hardest challenge and where they push themselves to the limit. For Paralympians, training and competition is an escape from the hardships and struggles of their everyday life. That is the difference.
Most gospel music is very vertical. And there’s nothing wrong with that – there’s nothing wrong with, you know, ‘God, we praise you,’ and ‘hallelujah.’ Those songs are very important. But I also like to do songs that are very horizontal, that kind of fit within the fabric of people’s everyday life.
I am really influenced by normal, simple, everyday life and people, like the Biji and Dolly in ‘Vicky Donor,’ who used to drink and say whatever they felt like. These characters were so lively. I have seen these people around me.
We shift in our everyday life; we evolve, depending on the circumstances.
Deference has been codified in American life as political correctness. And political correctness functions like a despotic regime. It is an oppressiveness that spreads its edicts further and further into the crevices of everyday life.
I think I’m working on being a lot more positive in my everyday life because I realize comments and things can hurt.
We are working women. Also, we have the problem of children, of men, to take care of our houses, so many things. I try to explain that in my clothes. They are clothes for everyday life. That is the real life of woman.
Really, most of us just focus on what’s in front of us. We’re too busy putting out the fires of everyday life.
A true leader must strive towards a grand vision of human progress, but remember that the minor details of her everyday life really matter to those who look up to her as a role model.
For me, writing a novel is like having a dream. Writing a novel lets me intentionally dream while I’m still awake. I can continue yesterday’s dream today, something you can’t normally do in everyday life.
I really like Kendrick Lamar. I’m still a Talib Kweli fan, Lupe Fiasco, Mos Def, Common Sense – people who say things that are relevant to everyday life. I don’t pay attention to artists that talk about throwing money away and the car that they drive.
The advance of technology is based on making it fit in so that you don’t really even notice it, so it’s part of everyday life.
My mum’s really short so she always wears really tall heels, and I used to steal them and now it’s just a part of my everyday life.
For those of us living in Texas and other border states, the reality of an open and unsecured border is a part of everyday life.
I don’t want to become a serious, annoying sociologist. I try to regard sociology as a part of everyday life.
