When I start doing movies, that’ll be the time to pack Vine in. Quit when you’re on top. Be the king.
I enjoyed living in Chicago and doing plays for little or no money. I never actually thought that I would leave Chicago, originally. I wasn’t one of those people that had a plan to pack up the van and drive out to Hollywood. I didn’t want to.
And I think that, given the opportunity, somebody could really learn a lot just being around me and the girls because it’s really nonstop, 24/7 brainstorming and creativity and just trying to get organized and really pack a lot into a day – being there nonstop with all engines blazing.
I loved to party with the Rat Pack; they were so much fun.
Let me go over this again on the reclaiming the civil rights movement. People of faith that believe that you have an equal right to justice – that is the essence. And if it’s not the essence, then we’ve been sold a pack of lies. The essence is everyone deserves a shot – the content of character, not the color of skin.
I tend to pack light but still keep a large bag because I love to shop. For each destination I travel to, I like to buy something that the country or city is known for such as olive oil, truffle, jewelry, etc. I also like to buy perfumes because the smell brings me back to the memory of my travels.
I remember my mom would read the newspaper, and if she saw a place that was cheaper in rent, we were gone. She’d pack everything up, move the furniture and we were out of there.
As one looks across the barren stretches of the pack, it is sometimes difficult to realise what teeming life exists immediately beneath its surface.
I’m one of four so I’m very family orientated. Me, my sister and my two little brothers are like the four musketeers; it’s us against everyone else. We’re like a little pack.
I never settled because I wasn’t meant to pack toilet rolls or stack shelves.
Geneticists in the early 1900s believed that nature – in an effort to avoid wasting precious space within chromosomes – would pack as many genes into each chromosome as possible.
I got started when I was about 15, or 16. My first break through was the Vans song with my group The Pack. That became a worldwide thing.
I don’t want to pack everything into one year and then do nothing the rest of my life. I think it’s important to do things bit by bit.
I knew it was time to pack it in. I was in my 60s… I could still sing but I didn’t want to get to that point where people feel sorry for me.
With a tennis racket strapped tightly to her hiking pack, Martina Navratilova began her ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro. The tennis legend had visions of celebrating at the summit of Africa’s highest peak by hitting a couple balls to see how far they might fly in the thin air at 19,341 feet.
What did winning a Grammy do for me? It made me want to get rid of my Grammy, pack it away, and never see it again. It made me not want to speak to anyone who wanted to speak about my Grammy.
Did you ever run behind a slow pack? You get a trailing wind and a lot of body odor.
I was going to become a youth worker because I do voluntary work with the kids in the little village where I live. I make little films with them and stuff when I’m not working. I thought, I’ll pack it in then, and go and do something I love doing, and get a regular job because I’ve got two kids and a mortgage.
Always bring a pack of baby wipes with you.
Growing up, I ate a lot of candy. If you were my dentist, you would know that, you know, but I eat a lot of candy, so from eight to probably, like, 15, you wouldn’t see me without a pack of Skittles.
I’m a sucker for a packet of biscuits. I can eat a whole pack in 10 minutes.
Pack lightly. If I’m anywhere a week or less, I carry on. I can fit everything I need in one small bag! And I pack small, mini liquids so TSA doesn’t make me throw anything out.
Every summer my husband and I pack our suitcases, load our kids into the car, and drive from tense, crowded New York City to my family’s cottage in Maine. It’s on an island, with stretches of sea and sandy beaches, rocky coasts, and pine trees. We barbecue, swim, lie around, and try to do nothing.
You have to pack as much as you can in an hour or 70 minutes. This time around it was 15 songs, so it was a challenge to get them all the right length so you could get them all on.
I include lots of nutrients like Omega 3 fish oils in my diet, which work wonders for my skin, hair and nails. I also pack in the greens and drink lots of water, rather than choosing foods that make me feel lethargic.
Some artists are like ready-salted crisps and just do what they are supposed to do. But I’m every flavour in one. I’m one of those variety packs.
On the road, I’ll always pack a package or two of pre-cooked lentils, nuts, vegan protein bars and powders.
I can look back at different times in my life when I felt I could not find my way out of whatever it was. I’m not necessarily talking about marriage, but I wanted to pack it in. I wanted to disappear. A lot of that has to do with being in the public eye.
Men mostly ignore taking care of their skin. I think a weekly scrub and a face pack for every man is a must to get rid of all the pollution, dirt and grime.
As soon as Liverpool declared their interest in signing me, it was a simple decision to make. A club with Liverpool’s history wants you? Come on, you just pack your bags and go. It will be an honour to wear the famous red shirt.
Manmohan Desai’s films pack a lot of joy and have a child-like quality and you can see the director is having fun, but my movies don’t suspend disbelief that much. But it’s good to be compared to Manmohan Desai. He was run down by critics in his time.
When you start your career, you have to figure out a way to separate yourself from the pack. So I went for a kind of preppy, psycho-killer look: I had short hair, grey flannel pants, and a button-down shirt. I think it worked, because nobody else was looking that way at that time.
We’re in a world where masculinity, especially with these big spectacle movies, is often pushed by rippling six packs and forcing an image down someone’s throat trying to prove masculinity. Whereas I think true masculinity comes from having a strong sense of self.
No matter what your dream job is, you’ll likely hear ‘no’ many times before you achieve your goals. Just accept that as a fact. But by refusing to accept that ‘no,’ you’ll separate yourself from the pack.
Growing up and walking around the supermarket, lollies were the thing that gave me that kind of kick, and you’d expect lots of them. It would be that or a pack of cake mix which got me into food.
At training, I consider myself a bit of a morale booster. I take a pack of lollies just to boost the boys’ morale. I see that as crucial. I try and be a good influence and keep a high energy.
It’s always been my expectation to be the top guy, the face of the company, the one with all of that responsibility. But that should be everybody’s goal. I didn’t get into this to just be in the middle of the pack. If you want to do that, go work in a different line of work. This isn’t the place to camouflage yourself.
I consider my job as a screenwriter to pack a script with possibilities and ideas – to create a feast for the filmmaker to pick from.
I travel as light as possible and usually pack in less than a minute. If I’m going somewhere hot, I throw in some flip-flops, T-shirts and shorts – but I still pack clothes that I never use.
I’m just a pack mule. I’ve played leads and I’ve played character roles. Any actress in Hollywood will tell you as your age climbs, the leads thin.
I just wanted to play as long as I could. When you stop playing, you’re not going to get it back. When you don’t enjoy it, that’s the time to pack it in.
In high school, I remember feeling like a Jughead – like I was a little bit weird and kind of emotional. I also remember feeling like an Archie – sort of the leader of the pack.
I’m not a businessman. I could pack it in, but I like work. I don’t want to sound like Catherine Cookson, but I’ve worked since I was eight, with a paper round and in a fruit and veg shop.
I’m not good at interacting with people and am terrified to get onstage, so I just go up there, freak out and, most of the time, pack up and go home immediately after.
The way I pack is I look at how long I’ll be gone and I pack day for day. If I’m going on a three-day fishing trip, I plot each day. I put most of that in a little bag. If I’m going from there to work on golf courses for a few days, I plot that trip.
Obama broke his no-new-taxes pledge 15 days after he took office when he signed legislation on Feb. 4, 2009 raising the tax on cigarettes 158 percent – 62 cents per pack.
When I was 11 years old, I was a member of ‘Press Pack,’ which was a thing that would come out in ‘The Sunday Times’ in England. You’d write articles and send them off and would get a badge saying ‘Official Press.’ I was really excited about my badge.
Some of the stage outfits I’ve got are ridiculous. I’ll lay out clothes to pack, and it’ll look like Polly Pocket clothing – because it’s all stretchy, it’s tiny. I don’t need a case when I tour; I can fit it all in my handbag.
People who say they’re not nervous – I would be kind of curious to see how successful you are at what you do and how long you’ve done it. And what is success in your eyes? Have you separated yourself from everyone else in that craft? Or have you settled amongst the pack?
