I’m also launching a podcast. Because, I mean, the world desperately needs another podcast, am I right? Not to be a tease, but the format is different from anything else I’ve seen out there, and the subject matter is hopefully boundless, eye-opening, and a little cathartic.
I just absolutely needed the theatre so desperately – it was my fate; it was where I was running towards. It was the place where I found peace and survival and all kinds of things.
You see, Leavers desperately need a psychological win. We need to feel our vote for change can actually change things.

I’ve been the type of father who tries desperately to be perfect but doesn’t succeed all the time.
I don’t feel like, unless I have a boyfriend or somebody to march down the aisle with for the fifth time, that I’m ‘Oh, poor me.’ I’m not going to go running out desperately looking, making myself crazy and thinking that, without that, I’m nothing.
Even crushed against his brother in the Tube the average Englishman pretends desperately that he is alone.
It makes me so desperately sad to witness just how unforgivably wretched our world has become.

Education should be one of our top funding priorities; talking about it does not help the teachers and students who desperately need promises fulfilled.

France desperately needs to work on its competitiveness and attractiveness.
In a deeply tribal sense, we love our monsters, and I think that is the key to it right there. It is monsters; it is learning about them: it is both thrill and safety. You can think of them without being desperately afraid because they are not going to come into your living room and eat you. That is ‘Jaws.’
I’ve never really let any kind of negative things affect me, generally. I would take a positive out of the most desperately horrible situation.
When I speak of drama, I’m really referring to just ‘desperately trying not to be ordinary’. Trying to get something that has a little bit of friction, conflict, absurdity.

So, I think China desperately needs to legitimize some form of opposition.
I just desperately wanted to be thin. That’s all I thought. I was obsessed with it, which it was ridiculous because I had everything going for me. I was following my dream. Everything I wanted at the time, I was getting. But I was obsessed with this other thing that was making me unhappy.
I remember going to the Gap when I was in the fifth grade, and I desperately wanted a pair of blue jeans. I was with my dad, and I remember picking up the jeans, looking at them, and thinking that they had to fit me. But there was nothing that fit me. This was before the age of stretch, so I was trying on adult Gap.
You realise that there’s nothing more endearing than people who are desperately trying to be liked or trying to be the hero, you know? Who also probably just need a hug or want to impress their dad?
People are always trying to be on top. And not always with a macabre agenda, but I think that people are desperately trying to remain in control, rather than being honest.

We are all good at things – a varied assortment of things – and we all desperately need to find out what those things are for our self-esteem. If there is anything young people need, it is confidence and an identity and a purpose.
If you want to express yourself, it is difficult to be by yourself. You must have people around you who understand the same music. It is like being the chef d’orchestra. They need you, but you need them desperately.

Everyone has something that they desperately need that makes them feel good, that they don’t want anything to get in the way of. Whether it’s a man’s golf game, whether it’s a woman’s cooking. I have a friend who has to clean. She’s addicted to cleaning.
When we’re in a peak, we make a ton of money, and as soon as we make a ton of money, we’re desperately looking for a way to spend it. And we diversify into areas that, frankly, we don’t know how to run very well.
I’m kind of desperately looking for those things that will… you know, sort of show my wilder side, in a way, my much more irreverent, badly behaved side.
And I desperately needed books that would take me out of my environment and show me a world where being smart and brave and prepared was more important than being cute or cheerful or knowing the right thing to say. And that’s what science fiction and fantasy gave me.
The tragedy for comedians is there’s nothing more they want than to be liked. We desperately seek approval. It’s almost like a personality disorder you can do as a job.
I’m sure we’ve all had that annoying experience when we desperately need a flashlight, we find one, and the batteries are out. Imagine how much money we would save and the amount of toxins leached into the soil, etc., reduced if we didn’t use any batteries in flashlights!
As a child, I loved story books and wanted to be in them so desperately and live the stories.

My mother had Alzheimer’s, and it’s a desperately, desperately cruel thing to witness.

I do recognise I have a responsibility to the audience. They feel fairly confident that if I’m in something, they can sit down with their family and be entertained by it. I don’t desperately want to change that.
When Carpenter was shooting ‘Vampires’ in New Mexico when I was living there, I desperately tried to get a job working on that film, and I couldn’t. So my first job as a PA was on a CBS movie of the week that was shooting next door, and whenever I could, I would sneak over so I could watch.
There’s this classic car crash thing about ‘Macbeth.’ You can just see this car driving at 100 mph towards this brick wall, and you can’t do anything about it, and the characters are desperately trying to stop it and can’t.
We will not stop fighting until every single black life is provided the type of love and support we so desperately deserve.
I’m desperately trying to unplug. The last thing I want is a watch that connects to my phone which connects to my iPad that connects to my computer that airplays to my TV.
I so desperately hate to end these movies that the first thing I do when I’m done is write another one. Then I don’t feel sad about having to leave and everybody going away.
Our young people desperately want the chance to participate in and lead our nation’s economic and cultural revival. They’re up for the challenges that they’re going to inherit. It only remains for us to present the path to address them.
