I am fond of my writing in the film ‘Mondi Mogudu Penki Pellam,’ one of the first films to feature a mainstream actor like Vijayashanti speaking in Karimnagar-slang.

No jealousy their dawn of love overcast, nor blasted were their wedded days with strife; each season looked delightful as it past, to the fond husband and the faithful wife.

I have very fond memories of growing up in Greece, of my brothers and I causing chaos and climbing up trees, which is really cool. Back then, we didn’t have all the video games and all that stuff. We just had each other, and we played on the street.

I don’t know if this is the kind of retrospective analysis that people are fond of applying to their work or actions, but it feels like I knew I was going to be famous and I knew that an element of that would be traumatic, so that if I could make myself something big and otherworldly, it would be a kind of defence.

When it comes to judicial nominations, President Barack Obama and Senate Democrats are fond of reminding Republicans that elections have consequences.

I am very fond of Jeb Bush. He’s a friend; he was a terrific governor of Florida. I worked with him on some immigration and education issues.

When I went to Egypt right after 9/11 I was very upset. I used to live in Egypt. I had a lot of friends there. I spent two years teaching there. I had very fond feelings for that part of the world, and the fact that a culture I liked so much had attacked my own culture was really very upsetting to me.

I am fond of turkey with all the stuffing, which is my favourite!

I have fond memories of my kabaddi exploits at Lawrence School. I also enjoyed tennis and swimming.

You have to be very fond of men. Very, very fond. You have to be very fond of them to love them. Otherwise they’re simply unbearable.

I really spent the better part of the first 12 years of my career wrestling for Mid South. Fond memories, but a grueling territory.

Hrithik is a great help to me while I compose the music for our films. He gives his inputs to us. He sits with me and learns a lot about music too. He is very fond of learning and very involved in the filmmaking process.

None are so fond of secrets as those who do not mean to keep them.

I happen to be quite fond of staying out late and sleeping the day away.

My parents-in-law, brother-in-law and everyone else are so fond of my son, Kabir. I believe raising him in a joint family set-up will make him more mature and caring.

I am particularly fond of the late President Nelson Mandela. His speeches and courage changed my life and how I see myself. Mandela changed minds, changed lives, and changed the world.

I’ve done all my schooling at Chennai – it’s always home for me. All my growing up years have been spent here, and I have really fond memories associated with the city.

It is well that war is so terrible, otherwise we should grow too fond of it.

Reading is a form of prayer, a guided meditation that briefly makes us believe we’re someone else, disrupting the delusion that we’re permanent and at the center of the universe. Suddenly (we’re saved!) other people are real again, and we’re fond of them.

Ask a celebrity what social cause he or she wants to take up, and many would say utopic things. For me, however, the decision is very clear… I want to do something for children, a category of people I am genuinely fond of.

1985 – That was my time in New York, and I have such poetic, fond memories.

I’ll forever be grateful to NPR that they gave me such extraordinary freedom… It was 37 years of a fond relationship.

My mum was always extremely political. I have fond memories of making signs as a child for the nuclear disarmament protests at Greenham Common, or helping her bake cakes for them.

From a child I was fond of reading, and all the little money that came into my hands was ever laid out in books. Pleased with the ‘Pilgrim’s Progress,’ my first collection was of John Bunyan’s works in separate little volumes.

I have fond memories from growing up in Switzerland and drinking a glass of warm milk with a spoonful of honey before bed.

I have never really been fond of animals. I certainly wasn’t an ‘animal lover’ when I became involved in the movement. I just came to be persuaded that animals should be treated as independent sentient beings, not as means to human ends.

I’m very fond of Glasgow, particularly the West End. The whole stretch of the west coast of Scotland from Loch Lomond up through Mallaig to the Kyle of Localsh is so beautiful.

I will never play in England again, but I still actually look back with fond memories at some moments.

In the aftermath of September 11, you can’t – as Tony Blair was so fond of suggesting – draw a line under historical events. They don’t go away. They come back.

I’m not too fond of the typical Australian activities or culture. I’m not into surfing – that’s what I’m trying to say.

My favorite Luna disc is our third, ‘Penthouse,’ a sparkly, moody album that works from track one all the way to track 11. Tom Verlaine of Television and Laetitia Sadier of Stereolab make guest appearances. I am also fond of the final Luna album, ‘Rendezvous.’

I’ve always been fond of my heritage, particularly my Irish heritage. But I’m also from all over the world.

The heart of the matter is that everybody starts video games as a beginner. Then, after going through a lot of experiences and becoming more and more fond of video games, they become the experts.

You’ll always be close to somebody that you worked with very intimately for so long, and you become really fond of each other.

I have some fond memories – a couple of the nights on the town … a couple of songs I wrote when I was messed up that I’m sure wouldn’t have come out of me unless I was messed up. It’s kind of happy-sad about those days – I could do anything I wanted to. I did. And now I don’t want to do any of that.

I’ve always been very fond of animals.

There were few people, perhaps, more passionately fond of travelling, and seeing fresh places, and new scenes, than myself; but now, since, by the grace of God, I have seen beauty in the Lord Jesus, I have lost my taste for these things.

I’m not too fond of really cool design. I’ve got quite kitsch taste really, in things like tableware. I’m quite a sucker for 1930s pressed glass.

I have never used makeup in my life. I’m not fond of it at all. I love myself the way I am, and I try my best not to use it – the only things I use are sun screen and eyeliner.

I’ve got a lot of very fond memories playing football from the ages of four.

We were facing a financial crunch in the early 1970s because Mera Naam Joker’ didn’t work and we suffered huge losses due to that. My father was very fond of Mera Naam Joker’ and made it with a lot of passion, love and money according to those days. But it flopped.

I like Ranchi’s pleasant weather, more so because I am fond of the rainy season. Wherever I go, my visit ushers in the monsoons.

I’ve always been fond of acoustic music.

I started in theatre, in Liverpool, which is where I’m from, and which I love as a city. I acted at the Liverpool Playhouse, and I have very fond memories of it, but although I love the theatre I’m in love with film.

I am very fond of Edith Wharton. She’s quite high brow but also a great storyteller. My favorite is ‘The House of Mirth.’ I also like ‘The Reef.’

Most of us have fond memories of food from our childhood. Whether it was our mom’s homemade lasagna or a memorable chocolate birthday cake, food has a way of transporting us back to the past.
