Beware of the person who can’t be bothered by details.
In the year and a half that I’ve been sober, in the comfort of married life, Vogue and I have welcomed our first son and become a family of our own. We are busy, happy, and doing well. My finger is on the pulse and things I never bothered to try to understand make sense to me now.
If I’m on form and I’m not being bothered too much by mental problems or whatever, I can whip out something good. That’s why I’ve done quite a few overdubs for Tina Turner and things like that, because even before she made this comeback I said yes to her, just because I love Tina Turner.
No one bothered reading the books and understanding – and again, I’m not being high-falutin’ about it – but I think our books are great literature with great metaphors of real life dealing with fears and hopes.
Earlier, every time I wouldn’t get a roll, I would always take it in my head, and let it under my skin. And I would always get bothered with it.
A man marries to have a home, but also because he doesn’t want to be bothered with sex and all that sort of thing.
I don’t get bothered about statistics. If somebody had pointed out to me the odds of my being a working actress getting paid for what she does, I probably would have quit early in the game.
No, I don’t know why Bobby and Peter Farrelly bothered with a ‘Three Stooges’ movie, either. But if they’re anything like some men I know, their love for Moe, Larry, and Curly (and an assortment of fourth bananas) is deep, abiding, and unembarrassable. In other words: How could the Farrellys not?
Holding Congressional hearings is the purview of the majority, and during the first years of the Obama administration, Democrats could not be bothered.
When I was younger, I avoided exercise or anything strenuous. I didn’t even enjoy walking. As I got older, I spent so much time marking books or sitting at a desk writing that there was no room for exercise – not that I would have bothered anyway.
Nobody is bothered about an institution more than its alumni.
I had the perm because I wanted wash-and-wear hair. I didn’t want to be bothered with it.
If I had five minutes to live, I don’t think I’d be bothered singing a song. I’d be dead, so it won’t really matter. I’d have a glass of wine and a cigarette.

I really do want to just be able to sit in the corner of the pub with my friends… to just be an actor and still go to the supermarket and not get bothered.
I kept a lid on my feelings at school but, when I was 18, dropped out of everything and couldn’t even be bothered to get out of bed.
I’ve always envied people who compose music or paint, because they don’t have to be bothered with the sort of crude mess that language normally is, in everyday life and in the way we use it.
I’m not a massive fan of 3D. I’ve seen some good 3D, and I’ve seen quite a lot of bad 3D. I think if a film is created for the shock effect of 3D, then it’s a certain type of film that I’m not massively bothered about.
Social distancing means that celebrity parties and gatherings are still a long way off, but I’m not in the least bit bothered about them starting up again.
I directed ‘Death in the Gunj’ which released in 2017. It got very good reviews and a few awards but did not do well at the box-office. But I’m not bothered. I made the film that I wanted to make. It was not a film for everyone.
It’s easy to remember. That’s part of the reason why it’s never surprised me or bothered me that somebody doesn’t know my real name. What’s easier to remember: Danielle Fishel or Topanga? Topanga sticks with you.
I don’t get mobbed in the street or bothered. Well, people do stop and say nice things. ‘I like ‘Endeavour,’ or, ‘I loved The Thick of It.’
Being a mum is something that’s never bothered me too much. I have never felt a strong need to have children, but I am not averse to it either.
I’ve always been someone who thought it didn’t matter where you were playing. I always shot for the best you could get. It never bothered me if it was small or it was big.
There is socialism in the family that conflicts with meritocracy. And that bothered me.
We have such little mystery in our lives generally because of how we live now. I mean, of course, mystery is all around us, but the way we live our lives now, we’re too busy to be bothered with it.
I hate L.A. Can’t be bothered.
During my days as a cricketer, I used to be so involved with the game, I never bothered to look after my family.
I have only ever read one book in my life, and that is White Fang. It’s so frightfully good I’ve never bothered to read another.
When I started giving talks about women’s history, one of the things that bothered me was the tendency to say, ‘Well, everybody was totally oppressed and suddenly in 1964 we rose up, got our freedom, and here we are.’ It dismisses the women who fought for rights for several hundred years of our history up to that point.
I’m not bothered by the idea of getting old, or I guess you could say by having arrived at old. I was 10 when my mom turned 55. For 1955, she was a very old mom.
I don’t believe that anyone is not bothered by critics. I think that everybody cares.
The plantar fasciitis that I had before it really kinda bothered me when I directly cut on the foot.
Sometimes I say to myself, ‘Oh, I wish I could win a Tony Award’, although I’m not that bothered.
Like many other people of my generation, I don’t think I ever really bothered to grow up. I wasn’t ever really a proper teenager until I was about 19, and maybe I got a bit stuck there, because it seemed to go on and on.
Westerns were always my favorite things when I was little. And it always bothered me when cowboys were too clean in movies, or when they wore their guns like they had an outfit on. It always worked better when a guy looked sweaty and smelly; I hadda believe, I hadda believe that.
I’m a fairly unaffected human being. I’m easy to talk to, I hope. I’m not too bothered about the clothes I’m wearing. I’ve been misquoted in interviews as to appear earnest. Which I am not.
There have been 50 or 60 books written about Empress Orchid, but none of them bothered to really examine the period in China when she lived. I was taught that she was evil; it’s in all the textbooks.
As a parent with young children, I would always find little things that bothered me when I was reading bedtime stories or watching shows or listening to children’s music. I couldn’t find any stories, games or television shows that were fun and exciting while also being morally instructive and patriotic.
I have heard that my Wikipedia entry is completely incorrect, but then again, so is everyone else’s. I haven’t bothered about that.
When someone is bothered by someone claiming lack of drinking water, lack of medicine for the sick, and lack of food for the hungry, that person has problems too deep to be explained in an interview.
Since my adolescence, divisive politics has bothered me.
I don’t get bothered by fans.
For some reason, I seem to be bothered whenever I see acts of injustice and assaults on people’s civil liberties. I imagine what I write in the future will follow in that vein. Whether it’s fiction or non-fiction.
I’ve never bothered about my color. I never had that thing about being black. If the whole world was like that, maybe there would be more harmony and love. Maybe. I don’t have a problem with being black in a white country or being with my people.
Sir Alex Ferguson was a genuinely nice man. We met many times and even had dinner together on a few occasions. But woe to the person who threatened or bothered Manchester United in any way. Then Ferguson would not spare his venom. I know, because he often aimed that venom at me.
We are bothered a good deal by people who assume the responsibility of the world when God is neglectful.
Show me what society that ever existed that did not use the tools that they had available. Ask any person from East Germany… you will never hear somebody say, ‘The Stasi never bothered me because I didn’t have anything to hide.’ That’s not a thing that people say.
Life was so easy before I became an actor. I could talk to anyone, and no one bothered. I keep thinking to myself, ‘Should I not be myself,’ but I won’t do that.
I was aware that the things that I did bothered people, but that only spurred me on even more.
I remember thinking I couldn’t be bothered to feel any emotions any more.
When it came time to be a professional rapper, I wouldn’t sign anything without reading it. There was no way I was going to have people make decisions for me or wake up one day and find that I was broke because I never bothered to read a contract.
There used to be times when I used to be bothered about box office, director, producer, the actress… If those ticks were marked, I used to say ‘yes’ to a film. Later on, my focus absolutely changed. Now if a character stays with me for two to three nights, I say ‘yes’ to the film.
It bothered me when Kevin Durant left Oklahoma City.
Well, when you get into the business, what you have to realize is that signing autographs and getting ‘bothered’ is just part of the deal. It’s not a bother to me at all. That’s part of being an actor and that’s something you have to realize before you ever get into this business.
