I go to the gym four times a week for 45 minutes to an hour without fail; I like using weights for muscle tone and the bike and rower for my heart rate. I do quite a lot of floor exercises.
I remember the nuns used to swear quite a lot, so I think maybe it’s picking it up from them.
We’ve all got darkness inside us. And I’ve got quite a lot of darkness.
Because I’m in the media quite a lot now, everyone assumes that everything is fine. People forget I sleep on a mattress on the floor with my son in a house I share with five other people.
I play with those two eras a lot. The ’70s did actually take quite a lot inspiration from the ’30s. I love the ’70s, the bold color. There’s something very sophisticated about it now, looking back.
I look after my skin quite a lot because in this job, it can get stressful. Pimples come out! I cleanse and moisturize, sometimes do face masks. I’ve also got a Clarisonic, which is good.
Quite a lot of people wanted me to write about my family, I suppose for fairly obvious reasons, and there was always something that would stop me, I thought they were asking me for the wrong motives.
I’ve played a lot of very posh, sort of noble or aristocratic English people, which is nothing like what I am, so I feel that there is quite a lot distance there and have played a little bit far away from myself.
I tend to work quite a lot during the weekends. My weekend can often be about two hours on Sunday.
I’m convinced that quite a lot of young people, when they get in trouble with the law, it’s a cry for help there. Because it’s not that they go out to offend. It’s that their behaviour is self-parading, it’s the big ‘I’. And sometimes that means they’re really lacking in confidence.
I could never gamble on stocks and shares because I saw my father get hurt that way – he lost quite a lot of money when the stock market collapsed in 2001.
Miffy has changed quite a lot since the early books, although I never realised it at the time.
When I first started on telly, I used to get quite a lot of fan mail from Indians saying it’s great that an Indian is on!
If you give children the freedom to do very little, quite a lot will do very little.
Everyone remembers the winner; nobody remembers who finishes second. But quite a lot, I seem to be right around the hunt with nine holes to play.
I did quite a lot of research for ‘Phobia’ because it’s a very sensitive topic, so I couldn’t have just faked it.
In a way, I’m always working with Mick Jones. I feel like he’s watching over me all the time. We talk about everything: history quite a lot. Balloons and wars and old football players. The Clash.
I’m not a big fan of file sharing. I mean, I’ve done it quite a lot for other people, where they send me the file, I do it and send them back. You don’t get any back-and-forth and exchange and feedback when you do it that way.
There are quite a lot of young players around now with undoubted talent who get stuck in academies at big clubs.
I always hoped I’d end up playing a lot cooler roles. I do end up playing quite a lot of idiot savants, and I’ve actually started to revel in that slightly.
I have changed quite a lot since I came to Milan and I think I have become a more all-round footballer.
I’ve played quite a lot of crooks and killers, and that’s quite interesting. Then Dumbledore is the complete opposite, isn’t he? He’s a nice old man.
I assumed no one would ever listen to my music, and for quite a lot of years, I was right.
We go to Dubai quite a lot, so I’ve seen it being gradually ruined.
Quite a lot of the girls I get photographed with are just friends and then, according to the papers, I have, like, 7,000 girlfriends.
My grandmother would take me to the cinema quite a lot. She’d take me with her and sometimes she’d sneak my sister in, and then we’d sometimes just sit and watch the movie again.
I think my first story sold for $550. This was in 1954, and it seemed like quite a lot of money, and I said to myself, ‘Hey, I’m a professional writer now.’
I speak Urdu quite a lot, too, and I read a lot of Persian.
I had a great grandmother who believed in so many strange superstitions. She used to tell the future from the things that catch on to the hem of your skirt when you’ve been sewing, and different colored threads would mean different things… Of course, all that influenced me quite a lot as a child.
I always loved country gospel from back when I was a teenager in high school and started listening to bluegrass quite a lot.
I wrote a song for Icona Pop which boosted my confidence quite a lot.
I don’t really miss the life around EastEnders because it’s so intense. It’s so well-watched that… it’s quite a lot… a lot of people recognise you. It kind of takes over your life.
I seem to have had quite a lot of pink dresses.
I exchange text messages with Ryan Giggs quite a lot because he was a legend here and someone I see as a big inspiration. Obviously, with him being the manager for Wales he helps me a bit.
No matter what I’ve published – and you can look it up, I’ve published quite a lot in science, quite a few books too – none of it’s very important. All will be forgotten and in a few years time will be a few comments in eight-point type in footnotes at the bottom of the page somewhere.
I did quite a lot of the arranging, fitting different sections together, tempo changes, all sorts of things like that. I actually acted as a bridge between Robert and Ian. Not so much composing, rather presenting musical ideas at each rehearsal.
I used to play tennis ball cricket quite a lot before playing serious cricket. Over there, you bowl yorkers. That could be the reason I bowl yorkers.
Being a firearms officer is incredibly highly scrutinised now, and I think it is one of the things that puts off quite a lot of people. And if you think that you are more visible in that role as a woman, you might feel slightly less inclined to go into it than a man.
I have always been known as Mahesh Bhatt’s wife, and I would tell people, ‘Hello! I’m here!’ This has always been a struggle. I would like to be known for who I am. I’m very happy to be known as his wife or Alia’s mother. But I am also a person who, in her own right, has gone through quite a lot of odds.
A travel book is about someone who goes somewhere, travels on the ground, sees something and spends quite a lot of time doing it, and has a hard time, and then comes back and writes about it. It’s not about inventing.
3D is quite a lot more advanced in animated movies; for live-action movies we’re just taking baby steps, we’re just in the beginning.
I’ve suffered quite a lot, to the point where I’ve experienced death. Years before I wasn’t fit to die, but I understand life better now. Death is nice, death is beauty.
I have been thinking quite a lot about retiring… it is getting very difficult to be both a player and a manager.
I thought of the idea of Summly in March or April 2011. I was 15 years old and I was revising for some kind of history exam. The problem was I was trying to find information that was useful to me. When you type into Google an esoteric term, you get quite a lot of stuff that’s not relevant.
I knew quite a lot about politics before I went to Parliament.
If you have the same drive and passions that everybody else has – for example, if you’re trying to do the right thing for your family and do the right thing for people you employ – then you can be forgiven quite a lot.
In all honesty, if somebody asked me the secret of auditioning for Americans, I don’t know. Often, I do what’s called self-taping for America. I go over there quite a lot to sit in a room and do stuff in front of people. You feel like a performing monkey. It’s bizarre.
In my case, the long gaps between my books have got quite a lot to do with lack of confidence. A lot of the time when I’m not writing I start thinking I can’t do it.
I watch quite a lot of my matches with Arsenal, and when I look back and see what I didn’t do right, I try to learn from it, which hopefully facilitates my progression.
Well, I moved around quite a lot so I was born in Yorkshire and then I moved to Blackpool, which is like North England.
The first one was quite cheap, but that was expensive for us. For my folks to buy on the Never Never. It was quite, you know, a rare object to have and I gained quite a lot of status by having this.
What works for me is knowing the character in an emotional sense. I wish I was more logical but it doesn’t work for me like that. I need quite a lot of time; it’s why I always worry when I’m doing more than one thing at a time. I hope that some sort of magic will kick in.
You simply can’t get inside the heads of other people and say to them, ‘Look, I went through some rough times.’ It’s impossible to explain everything the streets taught me, and that was quite a lot.
I’m quite content with who I am and what I do. You might get someone in your local Tesco who might know who you are. But not really. To think you couldn’t do those simple things, I’d say I’d probably crave them quite a lot.
I love singing, and I used to perform quite a lot, but now, as a director, you just tend to watch other people perform and tell them what to do.
I spend quite a lot of time thinking about how curated our information is. What we watch, what we read, what we buy, often who we talk to, is all shaped and influenced by some kind of a mathematical algorithm.
