The natures of men and women are very mixed, and for me, the most fascinating type of woman is the one who is a little masculine, has a little of the man in her, and the sort of man who is fabulous is the one who is a little woman, too. It’s impossible not to mix them!
I was just reading about Paul Simon in ‘Uncut’, and it was fascinating. I never think about him much or think about his music or anything, but it’s interesting to hear his ideas on stuff.
To be fair, there was one season a couple of years ago when I really got into ‘Love Island.’ My partner was super into it. It was an absolutely fascinating, in-depth look of humanity through the guys of ‘Love Island.’
For fitness, I’ve just bought a watch which keeps a track of how many calories I burn, what’s my heart rate, which is very fascinating.
The most fascinating part is how fashion just attracts all these social rejects, if you will, from around the world, encourages individuality. They’re the people who make the industry tick.
There are a few writers whose lives and personalities are so large, so fascinating, that there’s no such thing as a boring biography of them – you can read every new one that comes along, good or bad, and be caught up in the story all over again.
It’s a fascinating job, to come in and be the most interesting person in an episode. Whoever the guest star is, that’s the job – to maintain the interest and the focus for that 42 minutes or whatever, and it should be a huge relief to those people that are the leads in the shows.
Canada has a passive-aggressive culture, with a lot of sarcasm and righteousness. That went with my weird messianic complex. The ego is a fascinating monster. I was taught from a young age that I had to serve, so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.
The Web is fascinating and transformative, but it’s an easy, flashy, get-rich-quick option to the hard graft of proper industry.
The contradictions are what make human behavior so maddening and yet so fascinating, all at the same time.
Listen, I wrote 10 unsuccessful books before I broke through, so I’m looking all the time to keep my books fascinating. I want to write what people want to read, not push any message.
When I began writing that I was able and did travel and met some fascinating people and also uncovered some history, which has not been discovered before.
Germany’s fascinating. It’s a really rich landscape to film and dramatise.
The years of space flight since the orbiting of Sputnik I back in 1957 had produced many fascinating results, but they had also brought a realization of the many problems that surrounded the use of rockets for space flight.
What’s fascinating about the Australians is they have this quality that they are impervious to majesty. They’re not awed.
It must have been fascinating for Bono to have Johnny Cash do a cover of his song, and hear how he translates the words that he has used. And it would be fascinating to see a great director do his take on my work.
I grew up looking at my father as to how to behave. In watching him I grasped so many things. His own temperament was of a calm person. He was very composed and I never saw anger in him. To me, that was fascinating.
Seattle is still more Caucasian than most medium-sized cities. The sort of psychosexual politics of white fandom in context of black athletes who are also both very rich and slightly angry is just, to me, bottomlessly fascinating.
I love religions and find them fascinating, and I find Judaism very beautiful. It’s enriched my life enormously.
When you start off acting, it does seem very romantic, and the make-believe part of it all seems very exciting. It’s only later that you begin to realize how fascinating the work is – that it’s a bottomless pit, and you never get to the end of it.
I write to satisfy the story or poem or piece of fascinating research that speaks to me. To rub a sore, to resonate with joy, to answer a question no one else has satisfactorily answered for me.
People evolve and grow, and life is fascinating and fun and tragic.
I think that’s what makes life interesting – the evolution of getting older, and it’s kinda fascinating to me, the whole process.
I think Tilda Swinton is terribly interesting. I think she’s fascinating. I love her work.
I was reading about all of these medical and psychological experimental programs that the government and various intelligence agencies had run throughout the 20th century. Any book you can read on that, there’s some really horrifying and fascinating stuff that goes on there.
In socialism, everything is supposed to be equal. And yet, it’s always fascinating how the elite government bureaucrats (in socialist places like Venezuela, Cuba and Argentina) are the ones that wind up with all the money.
‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,’ while not nearly the masterpiece proclaimed by many critics, is certainly a fascinating cross-species: a big-budget summer action fantasy with a sylvan, indie-film vibe, and a war movie that dares ask its audience to root for the peacemakers.
Google is fascinating, and the book isn’t finished. I’m creating, living, building, and writing those chapters.
The whole nature of war is both stupid and fascinating. It’s this big game, except people die. Yet we still keep on playing it because of the big power struggles that exist all over the world. It’s really amazing to me that people really do that.
In 1989, my father died after a prolonged struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. All four of his siblings followed him into the shadow lands of that fascinating, maddening affliction.
Martin Luther would be the headliner of any ‘dead-or-alive dinner party’ I would ever throw. He is, quite simply, one of the most fascinating brains and compelling personalities in history.
Yes, I love going to fittings and talking about the history of a costume. For ‘Versailles,’ a play set in 1919, the costume designer told me that pocket squares had just been introduced. The tango was becoming fashionable in London, and dancers used them to mop their brows. I love to learn fascinating stuff like that.
People are surprisingly off put just by saliva, the substance that you carry around in your mouth. You swallow it. You have no objection to it. But then it leaves your body, and you’re just revolted. So it – that – just that right there to me is a fascinating thing.
The dog collar is fascinating to people, when it doesn’t repel. I’ve got used to being shouted at in the street.
Dramas about addiction can be exciting to watch. And then dispiriting. Exciting because degradation is fascinating to follow from the relative safety and smugness of an ‘appropriate’ life, and dispiriting because if all that sad mayhem can happen to this or that character, what’s to keep it from happening to me or you?
I think Africa is the most interesting continent on the planet. You look at a country like Egypt, and you look at a country like Ghana. It’s just completely different, and the people look completely different. It’s just a fascinating continent with the most culture.
I’ve discovered that being behind the camera is more fascinating. If I had to choose a profession today, it would have been something behind the camera.
Endnotes, often confused with footnotes that live at the bottom of a page, is that lump of text at the end of the book, sometimes even relegated to a tiny font size. They’re often forgotten but, in nonfiction, particularly history books, can offer a fascinating footprint into the author’s research, a joyful, geeky abyss.
I would like to see more of the making of just regular television shows. Like the casting process. I think it’s so fascinating to watch the actors come in and see how they discuss everybody afterwards. It’s a crazy world that has no rhyme or reason.
Technology is fascinating.
To be able to travel the world, especially to places I never thought I’d be… it’s really, you know, still fascinating for me.
I want to travel the world – like Egypt. I love history. That’s my favorite subject at school. From the building of the pyramids to… King Tut. Their way of working without technology. I find all that fascinating.
Luca Changretta’s not someone you want to be at odds with. It’s a fantastic opportunity for me, and he’s a fascinating character.
The Vikings themselves are fascinating creatures. They’re human beings, of course, but their ethos are so different from ours. The fact that they live as warriors – their willingness to die for the sake of what they believe in – is quite shocking to us, and it’s fascinating to see.
Half of my life, I’ve had people staring at me because they think I’m funny-looking and ugly. The other half of my life, I’ve had people staring at me because they think I’m fascinating. Everything neutralises. It’s more of a statement on society and how weird it is.
I find something fascinating about the quiet man in the background who has no desire to be the center of attention.
I find it fascinating that sport has such a strong connection to success in business. Arguably, C-suite women are some of the most successful women, and more than half of them played at a more advanced level than just the general population of women in business that had sport in their background.
I liked Art Linkletter’s way of conducting an interview while still keeping it light and I even admired Jack Bailey, host of ‘Queen for a Day.’ Particularly fascinating was how he could listen to all those awful tales of woe, then smile and slap someone on the back and declare her Queen for a Day.
