Actually it’s a gift as an actor to cover such different parts of history. It’s like time travelling, being inside a history book, in the actual locations.
They put a picture of me on a magazine’s cover and wrote ‘Mahima had an accident. She’s got scars all over the face. We can actually call her scarface.’ It still hurts me.
The New Testament doesn’t present Jesus as a single man to cover up his humanity. It presents him as a single man because… he was a single man.
I’m constantly struggling. You know, the stories that I feel like I could cover, do the work that I want to do and being a mother. That’s really where my struggle is – and being a wife and having a life – and for me it’s really hard to find that balance. I’m always struggling to find that balance.
I loved modeling. I absolutely loved it. I was so happy to get the cover of ‘Vogue’ – 23 times. I keep each copy. I made more money as a model than as an actress or as a filmmaker. In monetary terms, beauty pays more than anything.
Our institute’s agenda is relatively simple. We study the relationship between social-economic change and culture. By culture we mean beliefs, values and lifestyles. We cover a broad range of issues, and we work very internationally.
I think bare legs in winter are idiotic. Unless your naked pins are toned, tanned and veinless, it’s best to cover up. There is nothing more elegant in winter than dark tights worn with matching knee-length boots and a belted trench coat.
I enjoy having my privacy and not seeing my face on the cover of everything, y’know?
Michael Giles the first drummer of King Crimson, never agreed to the name King Crimson. But then, if you’d knew Michael, you would know he didn’t agree to the album cover either. So maybe Michael didn’t agree to the point of definition with many things.
I’m always looking for a cover subject that reflects the magazine, an interest in fashion, in culture, in society. We’re trying to bring the world into the pages of ‘Vogue.’ We do that by tapping into the zeitgeists with our cover subjects.
There are so many songs out there in the world that – if I know we have to come up with a new cover, then I’ll just sit in my room and sing song after song and figure out which one I can kind of sing the best.
The press doesn’t just cover presidential campaigns, they influence them by making arbitrary decisions about who is ‘top tier’ and merits coverage.
The Rockwell magazine cover was more a part of the American reality than a record of it.
We made history. Two Latin urban singers on the cover of Billboard is incredible. I’m proud of myself, I’m proud of J Balvin, our music, and of all Latinos.
On my record cover, you can barely see my face. I still think I look really geeky.
As it pertains to my black womanhood, there’s just a lot of ground to cover. There’s a lot of stuff to say.
I’m honored to join a very distinguished group of footballers to appear on the cover of ‘FIFA.’ Most of all, I am humbled that the fans have chosen me, and I will strive to make them proud with my performance on the pitch.
I’m Italian and Spanish and Jewish. I’m 100 different things meshed into one. I think that shows girls that uniqueness is beautiful. They can look at me on a magazine cover and see me in a movie and say that they have someone they can relate to.
Across the years, in spite of everything I knew, my passion endured. Newspapers and magazines paid me to cover fights when I’d have paid my own way.
Truly, if you can’t cover a five-car pile-up on Route 128, you should not be covering a presidential campaign.
Corporate blogging strategy requires some specialist insight in order to understand tone, the definition of micro-niche leaders, and subjects to cover.
Liberalism has never been about establishing a universal standard. Liberalism is simply intellectual cover for those wanting to gain political power and increase the size of the state.
I just waited tables three nights a week to cover the bases.
For me, when I go in to write a profile, and no ground rules are laid down, and I’m there to write an on-the-record profile and cover readings while in the room, then that means it’s on the record.
I started when I was really young. I was playing with my dad when I was 8 or 9, and I started playing shows then. I had a short stint in a DIY all-girl punk cover band.
If you do come across ‘Sanctus’ in a bookshop, please see past the cross on the cover and the sinister outline of a monk and just read the first page and make your own mind up. If it’s still not for you, then that’s fine; just put it back and walk away.
‘Tales From Topographic Oceans’ is like a woman’s padded bra. The cover looks good, but when you peel off the padding, there’s not a lot there.
I’m confident in my intentions and why I’m making music. I’m not making music because I want to be on your TV screen or the cover of your magazine.
It’s pretty shocking that the guys in Europe who cover traditional media will cover Google, whereas in the U.S., there are five different equity analysts that will cover the internet universe.
I must have listened to at least 10 covers of Leonard Cohen’s ‘Hallelujah’ – Jeff Buckley’s cover is usually my go-to song.
I know many people on the left are suspicious of words like Americanization. To them, it can sound like a cover for white privilege and warmongering. It suggests arrogance and groupthink. But these connotations are not fixed. It is in our power to reshape them by recalling the best of America.
I don’t usually try to rely on songs to woo a girl, but I think Coldplay can get a girl in the mood… or make her cry, one or the other. I used to play in cover bands; we sure did our fair share of Coldplay. I like ‘Viva La Vida.’
If you go back to the history of the ‘Madden’ game, I was probably on the cover of it half the time. So if I was to believe there was a curse, I would also have to believe I’d been cursed. And I’ve never had that feeling.
I think pressure gets to people when it appears they’re trying to cover things up.
I was super-obsessed with cover videos. When I was, like, 10, I would come home from school and watch them from 4 o’clock until 8 o’clock every night. I was so intrigued that people took these super-popular songs and did them their own way.
It’s cool that I’m 20 and am on the cover of the video game. A lot of kids play hockey, and a few get drafted, and only a few get to be on the cover. It’s a great feeling.
When I was young, I was a sucker for smooth men. Bryan Ferry hired me, at 19, to be painted blue and dress up as a mermaid for the cover of his album ‘Siren.’ It was love at first sight.
Being on the cover of ‘Vogue’ at 15 meant nothing to me. I never really understood what it was they were looking at, what they saw in me.
Sometimes you’re forced to do the cover before the story is done.
‘Vogue’ has a history of picking up on various TV shows that reflect a moment in popular culture, whether it’s putting Lena Dunham on the cover or Sarah Jessica Parker.
Every individual ought to know at least one poet from cover to cover: if not as a guide through the world, then as a yardstick for the language.
It’s no fun for me to cover a song and produce it the exact same way as it already exists. When I hear that happening, I have to say, ‘What’s the point?’
If you’re on the cover of any magazine, you certainly get recognized more.
I realised that a lot of women felt the same way I did – they didn’t want to wear heavy make-up, but, for whatever reason, there were elements in their skin they want to smooth out or cover.
The uplands of my home country in north central Kentucky are sloping and easily eroded, dependent for safekeeping upon year-round cover of perennial plants.
One thing I learned working at magazines was that if you couldn’t get people to look at a page or a cover, then you were fired. It was all about how you create arresting works, and by arresting I mean stop people, even for a nano-second.
I did Playboy. There was an ad in the paper for playmates. Playboy called me and flew me to Los Angeles, and I was on the March cover of 1992.
I’ve never really gotten into the whole labels thing. There were times I would cover a pop song, and people would say ‘You sound really country.’ I gave up on that whole thing a long time ago.
I think people sometimes have a hard time placing me because I don’t fit into a box. When they ask what I do at a cocktail party, I either say I’m a Renaissance woman or I’m a high-level madam. Lately I’ve been more comfortable saying I’m an artist, because that can cover a lot of different things.
The impact of low interest rates is broad and deep. Many Americans rely on interest income from their savings to help cover their cost of living.
The ‘Robben Island Bible’ has arrived at the British Museum. It’s a garish thing, its cover plastered with pink and gold Hindu images, designed to hide its contents. Within is the finest collection of words generated by human intelligence: the complete works of William Shakespeare.
If I took over the ‘Glamour’ offices for a day, I would put Joe Pesci on the cover. I would say ‘We’ve got to change all these magazines a little bit. We have to bring out a different version of what is, like, cool. You know, what’s winning. Joe Pesci, Burt Reynolds.’
Every musician in the known universe has signed a bad piece of paper, myself included. But it’s really very simple. You’re the artist. It’s your picture that’s going on the CD cover, nobody else’s. Protect yourself. Get a good lawyer. You’ll kick yourself later if you don’t.
