Many hotels, I just sat there and – I call it the silent scream – I don’t know why, you just sit there, and tears will just come down, and you’ll just sit there for hours, man. There’s no place to turn, and when you do turn, who cares? You’re just a dumb professional wrestler.
Gymnastics is the greatest sport in the world, and one of the hardest, but we have to watch out for domineering male figures who try to belittle and scream at young girls.

I was a nursery school teacher, and I worked with youth groups. I loved that job. It was exhausting, but you got a lot back – all their purity and insight and innocence is so on the surface, and they’re so unrepressed; they’d really scream at you and then give you a massive kiss.

I really liked ‘Nightmare on Elm Street,’ ‘Halloween,’ and ‘Scream.’
We’re just actors, man, just part of things. We’re just doing our jobs, like everyone else does their jobs. The adulation for us is much more because we are always in the public eye. But I never became an actor because I wanted people to scream out my name.
I think Roland read ‘Primal Scream’ first and then gave it to me. This was, I think, even prior to ‘The Graduate’ days. We both got heavily into and it offered a lot of questions about how screwed up our home life was.
I can be quite fiery. I was worse when I was younger but even now, when there is a bad decision from… it doesn’t matter who, I sometimes want to scream.
It’s the moms who are overaggressive. A lot of times their daughters are very sweet and cordial, and the moms tend to grab you and scream and want to kiss you. You gotta watch out for the moms.
I’m actually quite a nice person. It’s to do with the way I look, an uncompromising sort of face, brusque delivery and voice, and I think the combination of all that. When I’m doing pantomime, children will scream the place down before I open my mouth. There’s obviously something that really gets them.
A ‘scream’ is always just that – a noise and not music.
I like the scene in the first ‘Scream’ movie where Sidney gets up, and dusk is falling, and she’s looking out at the hills of Santa Rosa, there where it was filmed, and that’s where you sort of hear her theme being played out. I always liked that moment because, to me, it became more than just a horror movie.
On Mars, where the air is spare – a hundred times less dense than on Earth – someone could hear you scream. But you’d have to really strain to get anyone’s attention. On the Red Planet, where the wind is high-pitched and faint, even a symphony orchestra will sound as thin as cheap gruel.
I would never scream at my kids, never raise my voice. But as they often tell me, they were so well behaved that screaming was not necessary.
People who make videos bashing other people are like people who run into a public square and scream into a pillow. They’ll get attention, but they won’t change anything.
Thanks to our present surgical methods in physiology we can demonstrate at any time almost all phenomena of digestion without the loss of even a single drop of blood, without a single scream from the animal undergoing the experiment.
I think it is important not to scream from the rooftops to make yourself heard, I want my work to do the talking for me.
My kids have never seen me scream at anybody. They’ve never seen an argument. There’s never been even a cold silence. And those are things that I grew up with because my parents did end up divorcing.

The place is very well and quiet and the children only scream in a low voice.
I would say it’s not as hard as writing, because when you’re a writer, you walk right into the pit all by yourself, but when you’re a director, there are at least 80 people who scream, ‘Don’t do that!’ when you make a mistake.
I used to take pride if my kids were playing basketball, and I’d be there, and I wouldn’t say anything. People were obviously expecting me to yell and scream at the ref and at them and everything. I wouldn’t say anything.
I grind my teeth and keep my thumbs in so tight that I’ve dislocated them, just not to scream. Sometimes as an actor one is lucky enough to be asked to scream.

It’s different hearing girls I don’t even know scream my name.

We live surrounded by people who sound like us, vote like us, spend like us. We get only the news we want to. And then scream into the social media echo chamber that is designed to serve us up information we already like.
A doctor once told me that with crying you aren’t sure what its derivation is. If someone comes at you with a knife, you don’t cry: you scream, you try to run. When it’s over and you’re OK, that’s when you cry.
If you go up on a mountain and scream about change, you better make sure you’re ready for people to come.

The Democrats always scream ‘racism’ at a Republican contender in any field across the country.
I never really got the chance to scream about some of the painful things. In the book, I look at my whole life experience, at ego and fame, too.
In Spain, they go to the stadium and treat it like going to the theatre. In England, they go to support their team, to scream and shout, and do everything they can. I love that.
To write a novel is to embark on a quest that is very romantic. People have visions, and the next step is to execute them. That’s a very romantic project. Like Edvard Munch’s strange dreamlike canvases where people are stylized, like ‘The Scream.’ Munch must have had that vision in a dream, he never saw it.
I play a little bit of everything. I beat on the walls. I whistle. I scream. I go outside and scream because it sounds cool when it’s recorded. I play drums on a chair. I snap, clap… just anything to build the track and make it feel like I want it to.
When I first became famous, I didn’t know if I could go where I wanted to because I didn’t know how people were going to act. Some folks would scream and holler, and I didn’t know what to do with that.

I’ve had bad experiences on red carpets where people didn’t know who I was and were like, ‘Get out of the way!’ It’s so embarrassing to have someone scream at you like you’re not worth anything when you were invited there.
I always say, when I play the first few notes and people scream… if you’re tired of that, you should try retail. What else are you looking for?
Gamers are horrible roommates because they monopolize the TV with something less watchable than ‘The Mob Doctor’ and, if that wasn’t irritating enough, have the audacity to scream combat commands through a head set.
I’m not the biggest horror fan. I get scared so easily. If I’m just walking on set, and someone taps me on the shoulder, I scream and jump and freak out.
