The nice thing about Reddit is, we don’t have to sell your data or build a profile of you or do stuff that makes people feel uncomfortable.
Acting is so much about waiting… waiting for an audition, waiting for the right part to come along. It’s nice to write your own thing, write about what you’re feeling and then go out and perform them. It’s a nice thing to have and not get bored.
The nice thing about animation is that you can realise your inventions without understanding all the hard theory.
The nice thing about ‘Farscape’ is that you got to be the good guy and still do the bad guy things.
The nice thing is that when people come up to me, it’s the football they remember, not all the other rubbish.
I think one nice thing about mathematics is that we don’t really have one prize that dominates all the others, like the Nobel prizes.
So chess is kind of this nice thing that I have no real aspiration for. It’s just a frivolous thing I can enjoy.
The nice thing about being a celebrity is that, if you bore people, they think it’s their fault.
One nice thing about being a woman in Hollywood is that the women tend to be very close-knit. All of us writers and directors know each other and cling to each other for safety and support, and it’s really a completely different vibe than the men experience out here, where they’re all trying to murder each other.
You can only really understand good if you have bad, so the idea of heaven or anything that happens for eternity, even if it’s nice, I can’t imagine it being nice forever. Even the idea of forever is kind of ridiculous, which is unfortunate because it’s kind of a nice thing to say, you know.
It’s not a very nice thing to not have empathy. I would like to have empathy. In the past I haven’t been very empathetic with other people.

When the kids are laughing in the audience, I tear up, I’m so happy I did a nice thing.
The nice thing about quotes is that they give us a nodding acquaintance with the originator which is often socially impressive.
Winning a trophy would be a good way to finish a bad season in a positive way. But I’m not obsessed by the fact I have to win a trophy every year – it’s a nice thing, but I know it’s sometimes impossible.

I have a fascination with the nasty things people do to each other and the way relationships go wrong, and how there can be this very dark underbelly to seemingly normal, mundane domestic life. They’re the stories in the newspapers I always find interesting. That’s not a very nice thing to admit to, is it?
The nice thing about gag manga is how it has this aspect where, at the very least, you’re permitted to come out with anything. In my case, anything can talk. Like the mountains.
The nice thing about anger is that, as an emotion, it’s strong enough to unplug me from the comedian’s mind for a minute and just be a frustrated member of the citizenry.
The nice thing about being a writer is that you can make magic happen without learning tricks.
The nice thing about ‘Futurama’ for me personally was that it was a way to honor some of the traditional ideas in literary science fiction, not so much movie or television science fiction – although we have that too, obviously. Our situation, a workplace comedy, led to all sorts of stuff.
Whenever there is a new song out, we’ll sometimes try to rehearse a celebration so when one of us scores a goal, we can celebrate it together. I find this a nice thing between team-mates to show the friendship between us, and I try to do this whenever I can.
Globalization, as defined by rich people like us, is a very nice thing… you are talking about the Internet, you are talking about cell phones, you are talking about computers. This doesn’t affect two-thirds of the people of the world.
