I’d gone into that restaurant and sat down and the waitress had taken my order and everybody else had seen me with this what must have looked like this creature, this animal, sitting on the top of my head!
I think British science is becoming more like American science – and then there is everybody else, I’m afraid.
I get speeding ticket like everybody else. If the restaurant is full I’m waiting in line like everybody else.
The chemotherapy was very peculiar, something that makes you feel much worse than the cancer itself, a very nasty thing. I used to go to treatment on my own, and nearly everybody else was with somebody. I wouldn’t have liked that. Why would you want to make anybody sit in those places?
I realized I deserve to be happy and have all the things I want in life. It might be scary and outside the norm of what everybody else does, but I need to just go for it.
If you have the same drive and passions that everybody else has – for example, if you’re trying to do the right thing for your family and do the right thing for people you employ – then you can be forgiven quite a lot.
I always admired Ray Kroc, the man who invented McDonald’s. Ray had a vision of the most commonplace thing – a hamburger and fries to go – but to him it was just the greatest thing ever, and he was going to make it the greatest thing ever for everybody else, and he did.
The problem is that when government controls the economy, those who can influence government keep winning, and everybody else just stays the same.
But I don’t really care for directors flaring up and trying to humble some actor, which they would do to try and make an example out of them so everybody else would stay on the ball – and David wasn’t anything like that.
I look at myself as one of the silly, goofy kids that walks around the halls and has fun. I’m just like everybody else.
Like everybody else, I’ve had relationships in which I was passionately in love but was completely miserable all the time and didn’t trust the person I was in love with one inch.
My mom taught me, ‘There are a lot of doubters out there.’ It doesn’t matter what everybody else thinks.
You think you’re looking at things all the time, but you’re not looking at things, you’re looking at what your brain is interpreting through light and color. And who knows what everybody else sees?
It is fortunate that I am quite a secure person and my training flew in the face of what everybody else was doing as they were all just copying what the American bodybuilders did, as reported in the magazines. But it didn’t take long before people were listening to me: it happens when you are Mr. Olympia.
It would be against all nature for all the Negroes to be either at the bottom, top, or in between. We will go where the internal drive carries us like everybody else. It is up to the individual.
In today’s time, writing stuff that actually happened is touch-and-go, because you don’t want to be too personal. If you are, then it probably won’t relate to a mass audience. A lot of times you have to make it sound like it’s about everybody else, but you really went through it.
In terms of watching other directors, it’s more like I go on set now, and I’m prepared, as an actor, and ready to give them everything, but at the same time, you observe how everybody else does it because there’s always something to learn.
At some point in time, you definitely have to go drama. Not to say that you’re going drama just because everybody else does it. You do it to challenge yourself. You do it because, naturally, in the profession of acting, you want to show growth. You want to say that you take the craft seriously.
I was a fan like everybody else, even before I got called up for Scotland.
Definitely that was a big part of my childhood: wanting to fit. As an immigrant, you talk funny, you look funny, you smell funny. I wanted to do nothing but fit in and talk English and sit with everybody else.
I like America, just as everybody else does. I love America, I gotta say that. But America will be judged.
Everybody else has been seen, been proven.
Once you start lying, you get kind of comfortable. You start believing it. Especially if you truly believe you didn’t really cheat because you were doing what everybody else was doing.
Face your front’ is a saying in my parents’ culture. ‘Face your front, don’t look left and don’t look right.’ Don’t be comparing yourself to everybody else, yeah? Follow your own journey.
My family is from New Orleans. My grandma is French. Everybody else is from Mississippi – Creole people.
Interesting enough, we had a reunion of the 12 of us who graduated, right? The only one who wasn’t there was the guy who became a priest, and he was literally in prison in Libya, for being a Catholic priest. Isn’t that interesting? Everybody else made the reunion but that guy.
It seems like I always had to work harder than other people. Those nights when everybody else is asleep, and you sit in your room trying to play scales.
For a while, I drank the juice – I did things the way everybody else said to. I listened to their advice. But it didn’t work.
I want to be out there playing just as much as everybody else.
You don’t just become number one because you sing like everybody else. There is something different you bring to the table. Make sure you are constantly getting into the newest technologies. Learn the history of what you do, and always respect the ones who came before you.
I don’t view myself as a team manager, but a team captain. I’m part of the team, but everybody else as well.
I used to stay up all night, roam around, drink, and carry on like everybody else. That all changed when I got older, started to exercise and play golf. I knew by the time the day was over I would not feel like exercising, so I made it a point to exercise early.
After I got over the terrible pain of having something of mine taken from me, I began to think how bad everybody else must be feeling. It wasn’t a nice time.
I had done a lot of plays, particularly at my own theater in LA, and it was the first time in my theatrical life where I didn’t feel that my role was also to keep everybody else working hard.
The starting point of social movements stems from deep pain and intolerance towards loss already incurred and hence any gain including just voicing the injustice empowers the movement and everybody else around them.
We don’t want people to have expectations of us, but then we have expectations of everybody else.
I always say that my job is not to think about today. My job is to look around the corner and feel and see what’s coming, and then warn everybody else.
Be grateful for what you have and stop complaining – it bores everybody else, does you no good, and doesn’t solve any problems.
Who doesn’t think that they’re the best? I’ve put in the work and time just like everybody else. So, yes, I do believe I’m the best player.
I have problems like everybody else. I have problems with razor burn, and I try not to eat food that will make me gassy before meet-and-greets with fans.
The feeling of being accepted and acknowledgement and recognition and fame – I’m vain like everybody else. The feeling of achievement that I’ve helped the poor or somebody in need far outweighs the money.
I’m sure I went through a stage when I resented being Indian because in every other manner, in terms of cultural reference points and vocabulary and all the rest of it, I was way ahead of everybody else – so the one thing that set me back was being Indian. And I couldn’t do anything about it.
I simplify the spices. I’m the same way as everybody else: if I look at a recipe and there’s ten spices in it, I’m going to have to think long and hard about when I’m going to be able to make that… so I try to simplify the spices to three or four.
I think you know that I classify science as British science, American science, and everybody else.
I was very different than everybody else growing up. I spoke a different language at home, I ate different food, and I looked different. So I could always relate to Aladdin in that way, being the outcast.
I’m like, ‘Yeah, I could afford braces, but why should I change myself to be what everybody else wants me to be when I’m OK with who I am and I’m happy with who I am?’
I like ‘The Simpsons’ like everybody else. But yeah – people think I’ll always be super intense.
I’m often accused of being ahead of my time, but it’s simply not true. The truth is that everybody else is behind.
I get self-conscious and I get insecure, as everybody else does, but I try not to show that.
You can either go down the stage like everybody else, or you can go through the crowd like Roman Reigns. I’d take going through the crowd, the WWE Universe, every day of the week.
But I’ve always been fascinated with that prettiest-girl-in-the-class person that I never was, getting inside her head and showing that she’s just as tormented and messed up as everybody else.
Me and my family are straight. I am blessed. I am alive, man, and I am healthy, and that is the only thing that matters. Me and my family, everybody else, it really doesn’t matter because why do you care about somebody talking negative about you if they don’t know you?
As far as women fighting in MMA, I don’t like it when the division isn’t deep. I don’t like to see a woman who’s so much better than everybody else smashing other women. That’s tough to watch.
