I think every American kid grows up dreaming about being in the movies. That’s completely normal for us. But I mostly wanted to be a writer, and I got taught the scriptwriting program.
Writing a first novel was an arduous crash course. I learned so much in the six years it took me to write it, mostly technical things pertaining to craft.
Most of our social nature is like that of other primates – we’re mostly out for ourselves.
I want to tell the story. Mostly, when you see rock movies, it has to be this over-the-top thing. I want to give people a Bret Michaels movie where they see that my life is a comedy of errors. I also want to show my fans how to get through the kind of troubles that would leave most people flat on the floor.
If someone tied me down and made me answer the question, singer, actress, clothing designer, I most likely – it could change on any given day, but mostly likely I would lean towards singing. It’s where I feel most like myself – on stage singing.
Living most of the time in a world created mostly in one’s head, does not make for an easy passage in the real world.
The LGBT Community was mostly responsible for birthing my career, and I am deeply indebted to you… You have loved me faithfully and unconditionally, and for so many years you provided me with work even though my star had long since faded.
But some people will say you just did these programs. Well, yes, the programs are important and I’m proud of the programs, but mostly I’m proud of the way the San Francisco Symphony plays these programs.
The Great Depression of the 1930s saw more American unmarried women working from nine to five, mostly in repetitive, boring, subordinate, dead-end jobs. But the number of working women doubled between 1870 and 1940. During World War II it doubled once again.
What is called an acute knowledge of human nature is mostly nothing but the observer’s own weaknesses reflected back from others.
In America most everybody who’s Italian is half Italian. Except me. I’m all Italian. I’m mostly Sicilian, and I have a little bit of Neapolitan in me. You get your full dose with me.
Freedom is a lonely battle, but if the United States doesn’t lead it – sometimes imperfectly, but mostly with honor – who will?
I’m not the sort of writer who can plan out things. Mostly I have no idea where I’m going.
I mostly gave away what I had from the James Bond movie.
We became friends as we became a band. Our friendship evolved as the band evolved. It had its ups and downs, but it was mostly ups for the four of us. We got along well almost all of the time. Hey! We liked each other and we still do.
Vetrimaaran expects his actors to be spontaneous. Since he mostly prefers shooting in live locations, you have to be prepared for everything when you work with him.
In the ’80s, I was putting out an album virtually every year, I think mostly based on fear – that if I didn’t, people would soon forget about me.
I like to cook, but mostly Greek. When I am confused or tired, I think about what I can cook. It takes you away from everything, as you are thinking only of your dish.
Anybody who gives away money is mostly looking at things where they think they can make a difference. I’m trying to help people who helped me, educational institutions that helped me with scholarships, or organizations that were very useful to me in growing up.
I never see a novel as a film while I’m writing it. Mostly because novels and films are so different, and I’m such an internal novelist.
Before being humans with morals, people are mostly animals, fighting for domination and survival.
I’ve learned some exciting things – mostly, that people really want to help each other; and that, if you can lay out a vision for them – and that vision is sincere and genuine – they’ll get interested.
Because TV is mostly close up, it has to be fast. And because it has to be fast, you don’t have time to explain completely, by a sequence shot, what’s happening between people. So instead of experiencing what’s happening, say, when a couple is dancing, dialogue is used to explain.
I’ve been watching RFD-TV for a few years. As a person who lives mostly in the country, I appreciate a network that shows the many facets of rural life.
When I’m directing films, I mostly try to create an environment on set that mimics what’s in my mind as to the tone and feel of things. I try to create a place where you feel that anything’s possible.
I watch a lot of YouTube videos. I like game play channels like the Game Grumps. But I mostly watch sketch comedy.
Celery leaves are an underused ingredient, most likely because supermarkets sell mostly leafless stalks.
Many financial and industrial companies have been bailed out with the public’s money, but very few of those who had run those companies have been punished for their failures. Yes, the top managers of those companies have lost their jobs – but with a fat pension and mostly with a handsome severance payment.
I’ve always written by hand. Mostly with a fountain pen, but sometimes with a pencil – especially for corrections.
We’ve been called the soundtrack of people’s lives. There have been lots of downs, of course but mostly ups. That EW&F is still clicking at least twenty years on and has a life of its own, that the songs have stayed alive – we’re like a good book that people go back to.
The most bizarre thing I’ve ever read about myself is that I was dead. That was kind of weird to read that I’m dead – mostly because I was reading it.
We draft mostly high school kids and we have one of the finest, if not the finest, player development programs and coaching staffs and we teach our players the right way to play. We also have a game plan in scouting, and there are certain types of players that we look for.
I was mostly an indoor girl at university. Where other students did drama or music or sport alongside their degrees, I wrote. I used to work on essays and classwork during the day and ‘The Bone Season’ in the evenings.
You can still make music that people love, but there won’t be more innovation. I started listening to electronic music a long time ago. But mostly I listen to rap. I think rap is the most interesting.
‘Thunderbolts’ I was mostly attracted to because I really wanted to write Punisher and Elektra and Deadpool, who are characters I have always really enjoyed. But the funny thing is that over time, I came to really like Red Leader; he became one of my favorite guys in the book. Sometimes characters surprise you.
I went to church irregularly and was mostly reading comics in the pew.
I wish I had a little more joy of cooking – because mostly I have anxiety of cooking. I’m so proud when things come out well.
I was the only Christian on the cast, but that was cool because we all respected each others talent and mostly they respected me a lot even though I was the only Christian.
There were exceptions, a couple of families that just plain didn’t want to even think about it, although forty years had passed but mostly the people were very interested in talking about it.
We started this mostly from an intellectual place.
Nobody has a completely happy life, unless you’re completely imbecilic. Life is mostly pretty awful.
I do have a few little tattoos, but they were mostly done to cover scars because I’m so fair.
I grew up mostly in Schenectady, N.Y. From an early age, building and creating things was a real passion for me.
I was always a big reader, mostly because my parents were.
I mostly work out so I can eat religiously. I’m such a foodie. The only way I can make myself feel better about what I eat is to work out.
In real life, I have mostly gone for nice guys. I definitely had a phase where I was like, “Oh, the bad guy is really cool.” It’s fun to be bad for a while, and then that ended really terribly – one piece of advice I’ll give to people is your mom is always right.
Being the boss anywhere is lonely. Being a female boss in a world of mostly men is especially so.
A well-designed home has to be very comfortable. I can’t stand the aesthetes, the minimal thing. I can’t live that way. My home has to be filled with stuff – mostly paintings, sculpture, my fish lamps, cardboard furniture, lots of books.
There’s an awful lot of terrible television which I could do, but I mostly stick to Have I Got News for You.
I’m looking for best practices constantly. Apple has beautiful design, beautiful product, incredibly functional. But mostly it’s about picking product, getting behind it, marketing it and introducing it to a customer. What they’ve done just inspires me.
I’m not making films for middle aged journalists, who are mostly men. I make films that hopefully entertain people, where they can learn something about life.
At that time, the people that were in the animated film business were mostly guys who were unsuccessful newspaper cartoonists. In other words, their ability to draw living things was practically nil.
Honest, I listen to classical mostly. It keeps my mind fresh to write rock songs.
I graduated from Academy of Fashion and Costume Design in Rome. At first, I thought I was going to be a costume designer for films, and then I ended up working in fashion – not as a designer, but mostly as a model.
I have two bookcases that used to be filled with cookbooks, but now it’s mostly books about politics and government. I might just give this all up and run for office.
