I knew I wanted to write about female friendship. I’ve got a few friends I’ve known since we were teenagers, who have spanned the decades, and I do find that a fascinating thing, that friendship can last that length of time.
I find Maersk fascinating. It is the Coca-Cola of freight with none of the fame. Its parent company, A. P. Moller-Maersk, is Denmark’s largest company, its sales equal to 20 percent of Denmark’s GDP; its ships use more oil than the entire nation.
I’m interested in complexity, in the mathematical sense, as well as the idiomatic sense. The idea of emergence – that it’s possible for complex patterns to arise out of many simple interactions – is fascinating.
The ambiguities of language, both in terms of vocabulary and syntax, are fascinating: how important connotation is, what is lost and what is gained in the linguistic transition.
I love visiting LA. It’s an endlessly fascinating city, and is, of course, America’s entertainment capital. Each time I go, I fall in love with it all over again. That said, it’s not the sort of place I’d want to live.
I find my husband’s family history fascinating, as they can trace the family lineage back to ancestors who fought, and died, in the first battle of the Revolution, as well as to many other interesting people.
To me, there’s so much we don’t understand about our world, and I think it’s really fascinating to see these people come up with the stuff that they come up with.
I hate the word ‘feminine!’ I mean, there is a woman and a man, and when I say ‘woman,’ it suggests all that is radiant, tender, fascinating, gentle, demoniac, exaggerated! ‘Feminine’ makes me think of somebody who is spindly and over-sweet – I don’t like that!
I always wanted to go to Cuba growing up. It was this fascinating, forbidden country that seemed to have a lot of politics and folklore and history behind it.
I just love to impersonate people, and I impersonate people because I find them fascinating.
Medical ethics is a fascinating discipline, as it deals with issues replete with complex philosophical, moral, and ethical considerations that are rarely black or white.
I think actors, athletes, and anyone who’s a public speaker is very amazing or fascinating to me.
I’m just so used to music videos or live TV, so to really see something that’s scripted and you have to do it over and over again to get every angle – it’s fascinating to me. I would love to do a little acting.
I have always wanted to tell Miranda’s backstory. To me, it’s so fascinating that as a YouTuber, everyone knows what we show them. No one knows what goes on when the cameras are off. I always thought, what would Miranda do in her time off?
Hey, don’t knock Judy Blume. Without her, my younger self would never have been able to decode the random acts of madness perpetrated by the fascinating creature known as the teenage girl.
And ‘Queer Eye’ is fascinating. It has a pinch-me-I’m-dreaming quality. It’s very bourgeois, of course, and much more about the liberation of the consumer than the liberation of the democratic citizen.
There’s a ton of stories that can come out of L.A. I actually think that even though I enjoy being in New York more, I think that L.A. is a really fascinating place.
I’ve always been drawn to the extremes of human behavior, and crime fiction is a great way to explore the lives and stories of fascinating people.
What’s fascinating is that when you write a script, it’s almost a stream of consciousness. You have an idea that it means something, but you’re not always sure what. Then when you get on the set, the actors teach you.
Proper stupidity is fascinating.
I always think it’s absurd when people go, ‘How can you have a show about Batman without Batman?’ ‘Gotham’ is plenty fascinating, ‘Chinatown’ style.
It sounds extraordinary but it’s a fact that balance sheets can make fascinating reading.
‘Revolutionary Road’ is a fascinating study of the human condition of a fragmenting marriage and the torment that these two people put themselves through in their efforts to try and find happiness and try and stay together, actually.
First season of ‘Survivor’ – Richard Hatch was fascinating.
You cannot simplify human intelligence, emotion, and growth. To watch the frills and furbelows of a human psyche is fascinating.
I’d love to see a Nirvana biopic. I loved them when I was younger. I really like jazz music, so I’d like to see a Billie Holiday biopic – she was a fascinating woman.
It’s always fascinating – and sometimes a little disquieting – when two first-rate critics violently disagree.
I find the most normal things about famous people to be the most fascinating.
‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ isn’t a great movie because Audrey Hepburn is brilliant and everyone else isn’t. It’s a great movie because everybody is fascinating, and she is at the center of it being amazing.
The human condition is endlessly fascinating to me, and the existential horrors of life are what drive our imaginations and theater in general.
Brock Lesnar is a fascinating human being.
The making of documentaries for ‘Humanoids From The Deep,’ ‘Galaxy Of Terror’ and ‘Forbidden World’ are absolutely fascinating.
I got nominated for a Tony in my Broadway debut, which was fascinating and thrilling and sort of unbelievable all at the same time.
I’ve been visiting Thailand for more than 20 years but didn’t fall in love with it until I visited Phuket Town in Phuket. The northern part of Phuket is one of the most fascinating places I’ve ever been, and largely unspoilt and unknown.
If you think about it, now that Spider-Man is in the Marvel universe, that means that Peter Parker was probably, like, eight years old when he saw Tony on TV telling the world he’s Iron Man. And when you start thinking about it as a whole world like that, it gets really fascinating.
Police work was fascinating, and I didn’t imagine that acting was something a kid from San Mateo, California, could really pursue.
In the fact that ‘Vogue’ is someone that can help guide enormous audiences through this fascinating world, I would like to think we are as influential and actually are now reaching so many more people than we ever dreamt of back in the Fifties or the Sixties.
One person I find fascinating is J.Crew’s Mickey Drexler. I would love to get into that brain and see how it works.
Abraham is such a fascinating figure. Three world religions – Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – all claim him as a patriarch. He was raised in a religious home. And yet he rejected religion in order to pursue a personal relationship with God.
We all wake up in the morning wanting to live our lives the way we know we should. But we usually don’t, in small ways. That’s what makes a character like Batman so fascinating. He plays out our conflicts on a much larger scale.
I’m slightly obsessed with drag queens and performers. Their quips and their one-liners, their style, their singing… I find it fascinating. And thoroughly entertaining. I’d love to play one.
For a while, people couldn’t understand why I’d find them so fascinating, but I’d rather go to a trial than to a Broadway play. Now that we have Court TV, they see what I mean.
I know it’s become an ongoing thing about whether videogames are art, and I think there’s plenty of examples of things that use the form in a fascinating way. Things that are more surreal or artistic, like ‘Katamari Damacy’ or ‘Vib-Ribbon.’
Nagasaki is not just an international city with a long and fascinating history. It is a global inspiration for all those who seek to create a safer and more secure world.
I find it fascinating the things that capture people’s imagination.
Race impacts 90 percent of our society – and I’m probably undershooting that figure. I find this fascinating and like to address it when pertinent.
I’m a big fan of talking about God. Whether people believe in God or not, that’s so fascinating. Or where you go when you die is fascinating.
My parents had never been to Germany. But I knew what I didn’t want to write about, and I didn’t want to write about Edinburgh. A lot of writers find Edinburgh fascinating, but I never did. As a matter of fact, I couldn’t wait to get away from it.
To me, ‘Unforgiven’ is one of the best films ever made. Aside from the fact it takes the genre and kicks it between its legs, it’s this fascinating deconstruction of the myth of the West.
I grew up in Brooklyn, New York. I grew up in a very Jewish neighbourhood and thought the whole world was like that. My parents were secular, but I went to a very Orthodox Jewish school, and I really got into it. I found it all fascinating, and I was just kind of really attracted to the metaphysical questions.
My own interest developed because I thought it was a fascinating subject and something I wanted to pursue.
I find myself fascinating.
I found the Internet really fascinating.
You don’t have to be a Fundamentalist Christian to be interested in the Bible. It’s really a fascinating mythology.
My mentor in college was Stephen Shore. I loved his color palettes and his taking mundane things but finding them fascinating.
That’s my ambition: that you look at the pictures and realize what complex, fascinating, interesting people every single one of my subjects is.
The rise of women and feminism is well documented. What is equally fascinating – and less talked about – is the impact this has had on men.
