I admire personalities. Some politicians who are only great mice are just persons.
On a lot of shows that I’ve done, we had the same directors, which was cool. But then, it’s also great to do shows where the director changes every week, because you get to see all these different personalities and see what you like dealing with better, as an actor.
When I fell in love with wrestling, I fell in love with the characters and the over-the-top kind of personalities and the wrestling aspect of it.

I just loved the idea of writing for different personalities all the time.
In an All-Star game the players are having more fun than usual and showing their personalities more than usual. And there are guys in this game – I’m not one of them – who are historically good. First-ballot Hall of Famers.
If it wasn’t for KISS, there would be no Guns N’ Roses. Bands like that made Guns N’ Roses. We were five guys with five personalities and five different influences. The stars were aligned for us.
Boxing should focus on pitting champion versus champion – those are the fights that everyone wants to see. The sports also needs to work on developing new heroes and personalities. I’d like to see more vignettes on fighters, focusing on their lives, goals and stories. Boxers need to be larger than life.
The beauty of jazz is that it’s malleable. People are addressing it to suit their own personalities.
I’m not very knowledgeable when it comes to designers, but I love going to fashion shows just to see the other personalities that show up. It’s such an eclectic group, and everybody is sort of like an artist.
When I first thought about the military – and this goes all the way back to ‘Glory’ – I learned really quickly that it isn’t a monolith. It is really an institution made up of some people with very different personalities and people of different backgrounds.
I choose my actors well and get to know the quirks of their personalities – and, most of all, I share humor with them. Then I keep my eyes open when they rehearse and perform, because you never know where the next stimulation comes from.
I definitely want to go out and explore different personalities and different people.
We’ve progressed well beyond the four humors in the two thousand-odd years since Hippocrates, but we still haven’t satisfied the urge to discover ways of sorting people into personalities and types and, in so doing, predict how they might act in specific situations.
The game has progressed, but in the end, they are still people out on the pitch, people with different personalities and feelings.

The magic in performing as an entertaining ventriloquist happens when the characters come to life and the interaction between the separate personalities on stage becomes ‘real.’ Then don’t forget that the act has to be funny, and to me, being funny and entertaining any given audience is more important than anything.
I want to create a platform where dancers can be creative away from their day jobs. I want them to be able to express their joy, their personalities and to have fun.
Chicago has definitely played a part in my character development. I love the essence of the city, the personalities of the people, the hard-working spirit that you need to get through the winters. And every neighborhood has its great restaurants and the local hot-dog stand.
I hope that when people see Asian women, they realize we are all different. A lot of time with Caucasian people, they just group us together as Asian. But even with different cities in China, people have different personalities… We look Asian, but we still look different. We don’t look the same.
Having been with the Indian team for such a long time and having had various experiences of not just conditions, but outside the cricket field, when you’re a coach, you’re not just coach on the field but also off it. You’re trying to build personalities, trying to build leaders.
I believe that children have to grow up as all-round personalities, but it cannot be at the cost of academics.
People are intrigued and fascinated, almost obsessed with the private lives of great public personalities.
I mean the cool thing about the movies is that you get to try on these different personalities and different styles.
Raider Klan was crazy because we all had our own personalities and our own little worlds when it came down to this music. It was the first step to creating your own weird little universe.
The people who write official histories for the Army believe that a generation needs to pass before you can tackle the official history. It’s useful to have some distance. Sources become available. Passions cool. It allows an opportunity to make some real assessments and judgments about personalities and characters.
I think a lot of great male comic actors are introspective, quiet personalities, which I really admire. But they are really able to turn it up when the camera’s on.
I think we all have different personalities… and even in relationships, we can be called psycho, and we can be called sweet, based on what the person feels about you.
Economics, politics, and personalities are often inseparable.
I would not know how I am supposed to feel about many stories if not for the fact that the TV news personalities make sad faces for sad stories and happy faces for happy stories.
I am most proud of the development of the characters as personalities that game players could relate to and care about.
When I choose child actors, I chose them for their personalities. And then I work with their own vocabulary, so I’m not imposing text or dialogue on them: I’m just receiving.
I’m coming from the notion that acting is an art. It is not a business. It is about building characters, not about selling personalities.
When you play with great musicians, whether they’re schooled or self-taught, they keep you on your toes. It comes down to people’s personalities and individual energies.
We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins.
It’s fun to get away from myself for a while when I take on these roles that have very different personalities from my own. I get to say things I normally wouldn’t say or act in ways I normally wouldn’t act. After all, such roles are more challenging because you really have to immerse yourself in the character.
I love Boston, but it’s a smaller city for the personalities and video and the other stuff we want to incorporate.

Things can change only through strong personalities. I am not very good at supporting ignorance and mediocrity, so maybe this leads to arrogant gestures and arrogant responses. So, nobody’s perfect.
Acting while I’m singing just kind of happened because I’m a hambone at heart, I guess. And I’m a Gemini – I’ve got several personalities to access as an actor.
One reason I don’t want to play in England again is because we don’t have any personalities.
I love people who have distinctive, unique personalities who are not in assembly lines and have something to offer.

I fight these strange personalities by getting into music.
Tennis needs some different personalities and a lot more emotions.
If guys don’t respect themselves, they don’t respect other people. That’s times and personalities. And all of them are not that way. But it don’t take but one or two to screw up the whole crowd.
People either think Hodor is a very easy character to play or a very difficult one; there’s no in between. But it’s a lot of fun having to completely switch personalities inside four seconds, with no words. That’s a joy for an actor to get to show all that complex emotion in such a short space of time.
You know, we have to take these characters – who, granted, have their separate personalities but, on a lot of levels, are pretty two-dimensional – and make them into people with flaws, with insecurities.
I’m not sure I’ll ever love softball as much as bobsled. It’s like having children: you don’t love one more than the other, you just love them differently, and that’s how my love for softball is vs. my love of bobsled – two totally different sports with different personalities.
