I came home one day and Nick was in his bedroom reading ‘To Kill a Mockingbird,’ and the tears were just flowing down his cheeks, at the terrible injustice that was being described in that book and the bravery of fighting against it.
I remember getting a toilet in our house. I remember sharing a bedroom with my sister, and my little sister was sleeping in my mom and dad’s room.
I am also a drummer of sorts. I’ve got an electronic set sitting in my bedroom.
After River was born, I remember being in the bedroom by myself, overwhelmed because he wasn’t latching well, and I yelled, ‘Dave, I need help! Can you get in here?’ Suddenly my husband, my mom, and my in-laws were all in the doorway. I just melted into tears. It really does take a village.
For me the greatest revenge of all is having a happy adulthood, waking up in my gorgeous turquoise bedroom in the morning beside a person who really inspires me. That’s the best revenge a girl-loving girl from the Bible belt could possibly have. And, importantly, it’s healthy.
One of the walls of my bedroom was a collage of about 15 years of baseball photos. I would cut out the baseball pictures from every issue and I had this huge montage of thousands of pictures.

In my bedroom, I have my yoga mat and the puppets I’ve made over the years, and because I’m very into smells, I have some burned sage on my bedside to help clear my head.
I was working two landscaping jobs; I was recording songs in the spare bedroom. I would get up at 4 A.M., go to work, get back at 6 P.M., have nap, then start recording, just go until I fell asleep.

My whole thing is, I collect what I know I want to read, and I have certain bookshelves in my bedroom that contain all the books I haven’t read yet.
There is a crisis of public morality. Instead of policing bedrooms, we ought to be doing a better job policing boardrooms.
Yeah, I don’t like pitch-black dark. I always like to have a crack of light coming into my bedroom.
It’s the aspirations that capitalism is promoting as beautiful, positive attributes that are dangerous. All that is in the bedrooms of the poor and in the villages of the Third World, and it’s like a cruel carrot that’s being waved in front of people’s noses. It’s a seduction, an unattainable dream.
Take off your bedroom slippers. Put on your marching shoes,’ he said, his voice rising as applause and cheers mounted. ‘Shake it off. Stop complainin’. Stop grumblin’. Stop cryin’. We are going to press on. We have work to do.
The first thing I hear when I wake up is the sea, which is so close to our house that its reflections from the sun dapple our bedroom ceiling.
I love fashion. I love couture. I’m going to erect a shelf in my bedroom with an art light to be the spot for the shoes of the month. I want them to serve another purpose.
I have accumulated no money but I accumulate a lot of happiness. If you get rich, you have an apartment with an extra bedroom – and then you die.
We’re a really close family, we’ve only ever been in three-bedroom houses, so we were always sharing bedrooms, two of us, or three of us at times.
I finished ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ in 2012, and I’m living in my agent’s guest bedroom in Los Angeles because you don’t make a ton of money writing an animated film. The movie makes a billion dollars, and you make ‘twelve cents.’
As soon as I left Georgia, my narrative became about taking risks and the fight for creative bedroom artists with no platform.
I had a dark room in my bedroom. I was always taking apart cameras and putting them back together. I still am a tinkerer.
My mom, how she raised me, my brothers, my cousins, when I was a kid with one bedroom for 12 people… You think about all that, and God blessed me to get somewhere and do something I love and do something I’ve done since I was a kid. And blessed me with the talent to do it.
I’ve come from a working class background in South Wales with eight of us in a three bedroom house. Four boys in one bed, two sisters in the other bedroom and mum and dad in the box room.
Why do they put the Gideon bibles only in the bedrooms, where it’s usually too late?
I have three closets in my bedroom.
I was just another long-haired teenage kid with visions of grandeur, strumming a tennis racket or a broom in front of his bedroom mirror.
My bedroom was my executive office. Buyers came to my apartment and that’s where they saw the collections.

Usually if you’re a woman in Trump’s bedroom, the only document you need is a nondisclosure agreement.
When I was very little, I probably wanted to be more normal. I probably wanted the Laura Ashley bedroom, and instead I got thrift-store everything.
‘Nothing Left to Lose’ was an album that I wrote in my bedroom, and you don’t know who is listening or who cares.
My childhood bedroom had wallpaper that was printed with clouds and rainbows.
It’s really weird being placed into something like that because it was never an intention to make bedroom pop. I was just making music. All the people that have that genre placed on them are not the first people to have a home studio and and post it on the Internet.
I’d think the house was the source of great sadness or pressure. I knew it wasn’t. I knew it was just where I lived. But I’d walk up the stairs and the second floor was just desolate. My old bedroom: empty. My old rehearsal room: empty. First floor studio: messy and empty. Middle room: broken gear everywhere.
This idea of the digital native in the bedroom taking down a fascist regime and building a billion-dollar company is a very attractive image, but actually, if you look at the research, young people are on the lowest rung of digital opportunity.
My mother died, and I couldn’t stand to look at her bedroom any more. I’d get sick. I’ve always been a momma’s boy.
Television’s an intimate medium. It’s in our living rooms. It’s in our bathrooms. It’s in our bedrooms – and we respect that.
I slept in the bedroom used by Sabine Baring-Gould’s wife when I was researching ‘The Moor,’ and later the Jamaica Inn on Bodmin Moor.
All Oprah needs is a good book. My only request when she’s building any house is, ‘Could I please have a TV in my bedroom?’
Some of the hotels I’ve been put up in for work in Scotland have been shockingly bad. They’re the type of hotel where the bedroom is like a cell and the Internet doesn’t work. I feel quite aggrieved at that because you should at least be treated reasonably well and have basic comfort.
I have no system of writing. It’s chaos. I could be upside down on my bedroom floor; I’ll be scribbling on a pad that I’ll then lose. I’ll be on the toilet with my laptop on, sitting in the pub with my iPad.
The thing with me is, I’m both untidy and I hate mess. But I’m not untidy in communal spaces, like living rooms. My bedroom is havoc.
Our television set was in the bedroom. I can picture my mother fast asleep, exhausted from driving my brothers around. I can picture the Maple Leafs playing the Canadiens. One or the other would always be on the CBC on Saturday night.
We were the best of friends. We monkeyed around recording sketches and jingles in George’s bedroom. On November 5, 1979, I phoned George and said ‘It’s now or never.’ Then we formed our first band.
I’ve had experiences on both sides of the ocean and various classrooms and bedrooms around New York.
My best friend was crazy about Culture Club. She had posters everywhere. She joined the fan club. She knew everything about them. No one else sounds like Boy George, and I have great memories of singing along in her bedroom.
I recorded 80 per cent of the record in my guest bedroom; then, when ‘Shine’ went to number one on one of the charts, the label called and said, ‘Can you do an EP?’ Then, ‘Can you do a full length? And can you do it in two weeks?’
It’s not government’s business what people do in their private bedrooms.
I picked up the guitar when I was about 14 or 15 maybe, and then I started just messing around with loops on GarageBand, and just building my own beats in my bedroom and then just releasing that on SoundCloud.
I was obsessed with Nelson Mandela. I had big posters of him in my bedroom and he became my proxy father figure. He was in jail, so I could project all sorts of things about what he would say to me.
I always sleep on my own. I can’t sleep with somebody else. Always separate bedrooms, bathrooms and closets. I’m very individual and I want my own space.
Voiceover is probably the toughest of all the markets to get into. Everybody wants to do it because it’s again three to five hours work. You can roll in there with your bedroom slippers and robe on if you wanted to. And it’s fun.
Coming from my bedroom in San Antonio to this big world and going from singing covers off my laptop to making music in this nice studio, making professional-sounding music – it’s just weird.
