I agree that it’s absurd to call a category of music ‘female-fronted metal,’ because if you look at Otep or Epica or Arch Enemy, we don’t sound anything alike.
I can easily get a gold in the 48 kg. category, but 51 kg., it’s difficult because other boxers may have a height advantage.
In fact, I’ve always thought that there are actors who can talk very quickly and effectively. And I’ve never felt that I’m in that category!
My supporters are people who believe in being fiscally responsible and socially accepting. I think most people are in that category. Speaking with a broad brushstroke, those are my supporters.
It is wrong when we, in effect, throw safe and sound financial institutions into the same category with banks and lenders that climbed too far out on a limb with no way to return.
I suppose when I was growing up, it was all about fitting into a box or fitting into a category. You know, looking like I listened to hip-hop, or looking like I listened to grime. You’d see someone and go, ‘Oh, look at that person. He’s wearing that or that; he listens to punk rock.’
Suddenly, I was in a category with Barbara Striesand, Olivia Newton John, Donna Summer, Carley Simon – it was kind of neat for me.
I am very clear that I am not a feminist. It puts you into a category and I don’t like that.
You talk about Shaq, I would put Tim Duncan in that same category. Mr. Fundamental, just kept things simple. He is a great teammate, a great player, and a great person. When you have those ingredients in a champion, you just want to be a part of that and have an opportunity to play with him.
In many ways, we might compare to The Pretenders more than others, but still, we created our own category.
I have a Category 4 Pyrotechnics licence and I do firework displays.
The iPad is creating a new format for reading content. One of the things that’s happening as a result is the world of personalized news aggregators, which is a category that’s been around for quite some time, is getting new life.
I don’t quite know how the urban music category came about, but I suspect it had something to do with trying to maximise sales.
I don’t want to say names, but there are certain companies I won’t work with because of previous people they’ve worked with. I don’t want to be put in the same category as another athlete that I don’t necessarily think is a good role model.
There is no pop category, let alone any infinitely gene-sliced genre name, to contain the lead in Rihanna’s voice in ‘Needed Me.’
I come from the world of theater, and I know Noel Coward’s writing well. He has such a specific voice, and was one of the wittiest writers who ever lived, and you think of him in the same category as someone like Shakespeare who’s just impossible to imitate.
The young adult category is particularly interesting to me in terms of science fiction and fantasy tropes.
I measure success in terms of the connection with the audience, which we’ve been able to do in spades. I mean, it’s very hard to do that. You think about it, you go back in time, you can say, ‘Well, there’s, like, ‘Saturday Night Live’ and ‘Rolling Stone’ or ‘MTV.’ I think ‘Vice’ is in that category now.
If you want someone who is sort of still, has a bit of an edge, is older, you get Morgan Freeman. If you want someone who can carry a gun and still play a father, you get Danny Glover. My category is ‘that guy who happens to be black.’
Published in 1947, ‘The Plague’ has often been read as an allegory, a book that is really about the occupation of France, say, or the human condition. But it’s also a very good book about plagues, and about how people react to them – a whole category of human behavior that we have forgotten.
I am fully prepared to fight with any opponent in my category from any team.
I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?
In the 46-48 kg. category, I know every boxer, and I defeat them whenever I fight them.
I don’t think a song should be put in a category.
I felt more doubtful than usual with ‘Goon Squad,’ because I knew that the book’s genre wasn’t easily named – Novel? Stories? Novel-in-stories? – and I worried that its lack of a clear category would count against it. My hopes for it were pretty modest.
As an actor, I probably fall into more of the sidekick/best friend/doctor/lawyer category.
I’m actually really good at Balderdash, and no one wants to play that game with me. Especially the movies category; I don’t want to give away my secrets, but I am pretty good at that category.
People put you into a category and if you don’t fight it you’re stuck there for the rest of your life.
One of the sad commentaries on the way women are viewed in our society is that we have to fit one category. I have never felt that I had to be in one category.
Not everyone needs to be slammed into a category and locked there.
I’m Braun Strowman. You can’t put me in a category with anyone. I’m my own entity – there’s nobody else like me – so I’m going to continue going out there to be Braun. I’m no good guy or bad guy, I’m Braun.
But now sustainability is such a political category that it’s getting more and more difficult to think about it in a serious way. Sustainability has become an ornament.
If you put the collections together, whether it’s Rick Owens, Alexander Wang, or whomever, sometimes they do streetwear, but they’re never called that. They’re always called ‘sportswear’ or ‘high-end’ or ‘luxury.’ I feel like I’m tossed into that streetwear category so that I don’t exist in this space.
Were Trump campaign officials the only ones engaging in questionable behavior regarding Russia? Hardly. The Clintons are in the same category.
I just see religious freedom, as a category, as just being a black hole.
I don’t want to fall into any single category. I don’t want to be known for portraying drunks or heavies or saints.
If you’re in Bollywood and working in any category, and you receive a Filmfare Award for it, it’s a huge thing for any creative person.
Category after category, Barack Obama hasn’t met the promises that he laid out to the American people.
I feel that when the reforms in UN take place and the Security Council will be expanded in the permanent membership category, India will have a place, I hope so, but first it is to be expanded.
Any time you’re nominated for anything, it’s a true blessing and something you should be really excited about, but it’s sort of time to not be considered new anymore because I don’t really feel like I’m new. I’m just glad people still see me as fresh. I wish there was a ‘fresh country artist category’ rather than ‘new.’
I’m trained in mixed martial arts. I started when I was 14 and did my first competition at 18. It was a grappling competition against all guys a weight category above me, and I got first place.
Some great people are leaders and others are more lucky, in the right place at the right time. I’d put myself in the latter category. But I’d never call myself a normal designer of anything.
Just figure out what you think jazz is, and then if it fits into that category, it’s jazz, and if it doesn’t, it isn’t. It’s no big deal.
As much as I appreciate people putting me in the category of these very acrobatic belters, I feel like my strength is my… interpretation and my truthfulness with songs, and I don’t want young people to think it’s all about the high notes that they have to hit.
People lump us into the nu-metal category, and there might be a hint of that stuff, but if you really listen to a nu-metal band and then listen to Slipknot, it’s so apples and oranges that it’s retarded.
I just don’t think most people put myself and Robert Frost in the same category.
There are politicians who seethe with ambition all the time, and there are a lot of other politicians who don’t. I’m in the second category, that’s all.
And also, Sergio Leone was considered in Italy a director of category B, not a big director.
Very few people get into that category of being a good grafter.
Any artist who aligns themselves with a politician is making a category error because what politicians do is not on a human scale, it is on a geopolitical scale.
Depression – it falls into that small category of things like combat that, if you haven’t been in it, you can say you can imagine it all you like. But it’s truly different.
There’s no such thing as ‘sissy bounce.’ We don’t separate it here in New Orleans at all. It’s just bounce music. Just because I’m a gay artist, they don’t have to put it in a category or label it.
This does not mean that every copyright must prove its value initially. That would be a far too cumbersome system of control. But it does mean that every system or category of copyright or patent should prove its worth.
People wanted to put me in one category, I think because it was easier for them.
I don’t sell anything. So, I have a personal image, but I think that’s because I’m from an art background, and I’m an artist, and I think most artists do have personal images. I consider myself more in that category of the way an artist had a look.
I feel that I fell somewhat under that category where I was using fighting to kind of run from my own self to an extent, to kind of numb the things that I thought about myself. When I had fighting taken away, I was forced to look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘What are you without fighting?’
