After 50 years of smoking unfiltered cigarettes, my father died, too young, of a massive heart attack. He was 69. It’s almost certain that all those years of nicotine inhalation were a major contributor to his clogged arteries.
Wal-Mart is the biggest distributor of DVDs out there, but personally, I think their manufacturing policies have destroyed our economy, and they don’t pay their employees enough. I have massive problems with them.
I’m used to being a small part of a massive production.
International money transfer is a massive consumer rip-off. Banks and companies like Western Union have gotten away with it for too long.
When I worked on ‘Xena’ I had to concentrate on fighting like Lucy Lawless. In ‘Kill Bill’ I not only had to stop fighting like Lucy, after three years of copying her moves, but start fighting like a Wu Shu martial artist. I’d never done Wu Shu before so mentally it was a massive challenge.
‘What’s It Gonna Be?’ is about having a massive crush on someone, so it made sense to go back where – to school, where it all began. But it was important for us to explore those archetypal characters – The Jock, The Nerd, The Dork, The Popular Kid – and then flip expectations.
Cape Town, South Africa, was pretty incredible. That’s probably the coolest place I have ever been, and the kiteboarding is insane there. It’s so windy, so you can get massive air.

I feel like, Estonia, the sky is so low, and the people are much more close-minded than in America. So when I came to the U.S., I had a massive explosion of creativity and felt like I could do basically anything I want.
I had a weimaraner for 11 years called China, and he was a great dog, a bit mad. They’re massive, weimaraners; they’ve got big floppy ears. They look like a pointer, but they’re liver-coloured.
I’m a massive believer in brands. Silicon Valley has tried to reprogram everybody to think brands aren’t valuable. Or theirs are, but yours aren’t.
For whatever reason, it’s easier to perform in front of a massive crowd than in front of a small one, but again, that’s how we came up.
‘Lord Of The Rings’ fandom was massive, worldwide, entrenched. Generally it had been part of the fans’ life all their life, because they had it read to them as children; they’d become Tolkien students.
I do not equate productivity to happiness. For most people, happiness in life is a massive amount of achievement plus a massive amount of appreciation. And you need both of those things.
Over the years, the most ponderous problem for women has been that men think that men and women are very different. Another of our massive problems is that women also think that men and women are very different.
I do live a weirdly divided life, because I’m not a Hollywood superstar, I don’t live on Malibu Beach, I don’t do massive ‘OK!’ spreads, I don’t go to premieres and parties that much.
I was concerned about doing the right thing when I was a kid. I suppose as a child, you’re a massive egomaniac, and you think that everything you do is going to affect the world.
For some reason I seem to be a massive hit with middle-aged women. I seriously don’t know what it is.

Whenever I race in the U.K., the crowd just makes such a massive difference, often between winning and losing.
I love hard work. ‘One Man, Two Guvnors’ was so physically tiring I ached all the time, but I took a massive amount of pride in the fact that I only ever missed two shows.
As any successful mad scientist will tell you, energy ain’t free. Popular culture tends to forget this, instead focusing on the destructive capabilities of our finely crafted death rays without noting the massive energy expenditures required to use them.
The 2006 World Cup was the summer I came to United so the England thing was kind of ongoing. Getting to the World Cup was massive but it wasn’t until I got to United that I had that feeling that winning was a possibility.
I wasn’t ever a massive David Essex fan, but I liked a few of his tracks, and Stardust was one of them.
I had a very wise person tell me that he thinks marriage, when you’re younger, you keep thinking you can fix things. That’s what people do. And you can’t really fix anything. It shouldn’t be a massive difficult thing every day. Life’s difficult enough.
When I was 11 I became a massive fan of The Monkees. We had a so-called ‘band’ of kids on my street and we’d go along to people’s houses and mime to Monkees records.
We have a massive shortage of engineers and one of the big glaring holes is that we have so few women doing engineering – it’s less than 10 per cent of the workforce.

I’m a massive Trekkie. I’ve got original artwork from the ’70s. I’ve got outfits. Yeah, I have actual ‘Star Trek’ outfits that I wear. I’m a massive, massive ‘Star Trek’ fan.
In business, you can have one massive success that earns $50 million overnight, and that’s it. You’re successful. End of story. But in the music business, you have to keep on doing it.
There’s a certain vibe at Eden Gardens… Playing in front of 60,000 people is special and it makes a massive difference.
Great performers – in sports, the arts, business, or whatever field – have undertaken massive amounts of training. And when that training is complete… they train some more, and harder than they expect to perform. Why? Training builds confidence and ensures peak performance.
I’m the worst. I get on my Instagram, put up a picture of my face looking all cheekbones and blue steel, and get massive dopamine hits when I see the likes come in.
We’ve gone from, in the ’50s and ’60s, being very optimistic about the future, where the future is all spaceships and The Jetsons and flying cars, to where we were just sure the future was going to be a massive pile of rubble.
The love of the family, the love of one person can heal. It heals the scars left by a larger society. A massive, powerful society.
It’s been quite a ‘pattern interrupt’, a massive change of the old programming.
I was a massive fan of ‘Twin Peaks.’ Massive. I don’t know how any of us grew up in this age of television and weren’t astounded, and saying that, I’m still shocked that that was on network television.
One of the reasons that the Senate was structured and founded the way it is, as opposed to the House, it was designed for gridlock. It was designed to stop massive new laws being passed and voted on daily. It was designed to stop the growth of government.
Engineering is the art of managing scarcity – it’s easy to design and build a massive bridge that will last forever if cost is not an issue. Similarly, to build a new company, you must manage scarce resources.

Because I haven’t since.

One of the things I find really hard and view as a massive drag… is that I’m losing my ability to be completely anonymous.
I’m a massive scaredy cat. I’m scared of being in a fast car, I’m scared of being on a rollercoaster, I would never go skiing, I would never do anything that had the possibility of endangering my life in any way. I should get some therapy, really.
He had a massive stroke. He died with his tie on. Do you think that could be our generation’s equivalent of that old saying about dying with your boots on?
Getting married has certainly made a massive difference to my own life. So I am committed to giving support for family finances and having the right policies for work-life balance that make it easier for couples to have a rich family life.
‘Bahubali’ is not about big budgets, big visuals, or massive marketing. If a hero, producer, and director in Bollywood can have that kind of trust, something even bigger than ‘Bahubali’ is possible.
I did a shoot with massive iguanas in Costa Rica when I was modeling back then. They were like little dinosaurs, and they sat right across my arms and by my face. The guy told me not to make any sudden movements because they had enormous claws. The guy said he would rip my skin if he attacked.
