I remember seeing ‘Gremlins’ and having my mind blown and seeing ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ at 13, and it was this hugely aspirational experience.
I’m a hugely proud Welsh person. I just love it – it’s something very special, being Welsh.
I was an undergrad math major and a grad student in computer science. I’m hugely introverted, not atypical of math majors.
I’m a long-time fan of Rob Long, and his books are hugely re-readable, detailing the ins and outs of being a Hollywood comedy writer with a past success but with everything to prove.
I think I’ve benefited from not being hugely known. It means I have to do something really effective to be noticed.
South Africa is the most beautiful country I have been to. Canada is also hugely underrated.
Being chronically shy I needed to create a persona for myself and be involved with a band where I could be ruler of my own kingdom. Then Pulp became hugely popular and I lost control of it, which is when it all went wrong.
The world is hugely unequal.
There are thousands upon thousands of new Johnny Cash fans every year, inspired by the music, talent, and – I believe hugely – by the mystery of the man.
I think ‘Pretty Little Liars’ is going to be hugely popular for adults, for kids, for girls, for guys, you know, something for everyone to look at, and the stories are going to be great. There’s suspense every week. The friendship is really fun to watch. I think it’s going to have something for everybody.
The picture is being promoted as Disney’s ‘Spirited Away,’ although seeing just 10 minutes of this English version of a hugely popular Japanese film will quickly disabuse any discerning viewer of the notion that it is a Disney creation.
First, hugely popular and talented romance/dark fantasy author Meljean Brook gives a really deep, wonderful story. She’s clearly spent so much time thinking about the world of Sonja and her story in particular, it could easily have been a novel of its own.
Every time there is a major shift in technology, it’s been hugely exciting and scary at the same time. I have seen some really drastic changes in technology, like shooting only film to video to digital.
I’d like to see ‘French and Saunders’ back. They were hugely influential for me. They make me laugh so much; even their breathing makes me laugh.
I have a great relationship with animals, and with children. I get to their level. I try to see the way a child looks at the world, it’s hugely different.
When most people think of economists, they think of macro-economists. Macro-economists try to describe or – even harder – predict the movements of a hugely dynamic system. They’re like a transplant surgeon trying to simultaneously transplant every failing organ in someone’s body.
I have facial blindness. It’s hugely embarrassing as it makes me seem supercilious or snobbish.
But one of the satisfying things about performing a play is you know for that piece of time exactly what you’re going to be doing. Your life has a physical pattern. There’s something about the odd, repetitious nature of it that I find hugely relaxing. All the problems of life are taken care of for that bit of time.
Polenta is to northern Italy what bread is to Tuscany, what pasta is to Emilia-Romagna and what rice is to the Veneto: easy to make, hungry to absorb other flavours, and hugely versatile.
It’s a fight for every actor to surpass what they have done in their previous film, especially when it is accepted hugely.
When I married Sammy, my first husband, we were both just so young. But I’ve had a hugely successful career and I owe a lot of what I learnt in the industry to him, because he was already a top professional, and I was a nobody, really.
Trump has said he will dismantle the North American Free Trade Agreement. This would be hugely harmful for Canada and the U.S. and for integration in the region.
We must not fail to recognise that television can be a hugely positive influence in children’s lives, one of the greatest educators in contemporary society and an increasing influence on all the children followed in ‘Child of Our Time.’
One of the things I love about Helena Bonham Carter is that she is ravishing, but she does as much as she can to play it down and look funny. She doesn’t let her looks get in the way. I hugely respect that.
I think, definitely, I was hugely influenced by – obviously like Adele and Florence the Machine. They were my complete idols growing up. But also, there were a lot of influences from my dad, like singer-songwriters of the ’70s like Carole King and James Taylor.
Most people hugely underestimate the amount of ’empty space’ we have in our country. Fly over the U.K., and you see that human settlement does not fill up the U.K. at all. It accounts for something of the order of 15 per cent of the landmass.
I like the fact that Tess Holliday is comfortable in her own skin and loves herself. I think that’s a hugely positive message that women of all sizes really need to adopt.
Business 2.0 was hugely profitable last year, and will be profitable this year.
Music is hugely important to me.
I’ve got a great sense of humor, and if I’m able to say or do something in a movie that people feel like they want to repeat, that’s hugely flattering.
9/11 was a hugely overblown event that only assumed its overarching importance a) because it was done to the United States and b) because of the way the U.S. reacted.
I much prefer touring to anything else. Studio work is great, and can be hugely satisfying, but live work has the excitement and the lifestyle that I love.
There will be certain points of time when everything collides together and reaches critical mass around a new concept or a new thing that ends up being hugely relevant to a high percentage of people or businesses. But it’s really really hard to predict those. I don’t believe anyone can.
When you are born into a family like mine, you don’t really know anything else. But you quickly realise that it’s more about other people and how they are dealing with it. Some can be hugely in awe or uncomfortable, but to you, your parents are just your parents.
Sometimes you can just record anything and slow it down hugely and you’ll find all these hidden notes and frequencies that match up really nicely.
Addiction is a hugely complex and destructive disease, and its impact can be simply devastating. All too often, lives and families can be shattered by it.
I am hugely grateful to Mourinho. He is the coach who gave me my opportunity with Real Madrid, and I wish him lots of luck.
Before I got into television, I was working in New York. I interviewed a few people there, wrote a few articles for a fashion magazine out there called Paper’ – which I hugely admired.
My sister and I both benefited hugely from the great security that our parents had given us, and then we went off and squandered it all rushing around in showbiz.
To experience a Euros in France is hugely motivating.
The dedication of Don Winslow’s novel ‘The Cartel’ is nearly two pages long: a list of journalists who were either murdered or ‘disappeared’ in Mexico between 2004 and 2012 – the period covered in this hugely hypnotic new thriller.
There are clearly many good politicians who are guided by religious belief, so the mix can work. But there’s a line to be drawn. It would be hugely dangerous for a country’s laws to be set by the scriptures, and particularly those of the expansionist religions.
I’m hugely intrinsically motivated and have always believed that I’m fueled and motivated by learning.
In a way, bullying is an ordinary evil. It’s hugely prevalent, all too often ignored – and being ignored, it is therefore condoned.
If you look at European societies since the financial crisis began in 2008, with very, very few exceptions, the differences between rich and poor have increased, and sometimes hugely.
It’s hard to criticize someone who’s hugely successful.
In terms of moments that pushed me toward becoming a writer… My parents, my wife, and my English teacher in the 8th grade were all hugely supportive at moments during my development as a writer that were critical, where I might have quit when things got too hard.
Chance is hugely significant in biology. In fact, the presence of apparent randomness in so many aspects of biology – from mutations in DNA to the chance involved in that one sperm reaching that one egg that became you – suggests that randomness is useful, even necessary, in very many cases.
I cried after the game when we won the league – it was hugely special to me. The first season we came second and got to the Champions League semifinal, and I knew I needed to come back and win with Chelsea.
I think a setting is hugely important. I look at setting as a character with its own look, sound, history, quirks, goofy temperaments and moods.
I spent three years at RMIT doing a bachelor of arts and media studies. It was a hugely formative experience. As someone who had a private Catholic school upbringing, the world suddenly became a much bigger and better place for me.
I’m hugely into video games; I always have been. I started on the Sega with games like Sonic, Battletoads, and Tetris… all those old-school games.
People desire power. I don’t know why they want it so. It seems to me it implies a hugely superior intellect which separates them from most of the populace.
