When I read interviews with people like Kevin Barry or Colin Barrett, who I hugely admire, they don’t really seem to come up against the question of likeability even though their characters, in some instances, are really horrible.
Kids see cooking as a creative outlet now, like soccer and ballet. It gives me hope that things like fast food, childhood obesity and the horrible state of school lunches can be addressed by kids and their parents.
As horrible as jail was, there were some first-rate guys in there.
I grew up in a house where my father encouraged my brother and me to fail. I specifically remember coming home and saying, ‘Dad, Dad, I tried out for this or that and I was horrible,’ and he would high-five me and say, ‘Way to go.’
Sometimes I feel that my job on earth is to put Julie White through horrible things, watch her writhe and then recover.
Wigs are horrible.
Existence itself does not feel horrible; it feels like an ecstasy, rather, which we have only to be still to experience.
My mother was really young when she had me, so she was a horrible cook, but we lived with my grandmother, who was fantastic. We eventually got our own place, and my mother started learning to cook. But it was also the ’70s, so she was very experimental, and, well – thank God we had a dog.
I’m never horrible to anybody. My problem, and you can ask any of my friends, is that I’m too nice to everybody.
It’s very rare to have a patient who isn’t absolutely delighted when you say, ‘I read your feedback. The session didn’t go well. You actually got more upset, and I made about three really horrible errors.’ If you do that from the heart and not as a gimmick, boy, it’s a wonderful thing.
When I was younger, I’d listen to a song and take it literally. I’d think, Boy, what a drag. How horrible, he must be really bummin’.
We think of violence as being conflict and fighting and wars and so forth, but the most ongoing horrific measure of violence is in the horrible poverty of the Third World… and the poverty in the United States as well.
I wouldn’t mind meeting some of the people I’ve attempted to portray from the olden, olden days. They probably would all have really terrible skin and horrible bad breath, and I’d have to give them an Altoid.
People who are truly horrible are often the most interesting people in the room. You look at them and just say, ‘Why?’
I don’t want to be an editor – I want to be really forward about that. I would be a horrible editor.
Now, to find dinosaurs, you hike around in horrible conditions looking for a dinosaur. It sounds really dumb, but that’s what it is. It’s horrible conditions, because wherever you have nice weather, plants grow, and you don’t get any erosion, and you don’t see any dinosaurs.
It’s one of those things where if I do a movie, I don’t even know if I’m any good. So, I may do one and it sucks and I’m a horrible actor, and I’ll never do another one.
Anti-Semitism is a rotten thing. It’s an ignorant, stupid, horrible thing. As is anti-Muslim feeling. They have to be together.
I have a recurring dream where I’m on the run for a horrible thing I did years and years ago. Like, in the dream… because the thing I did was so long ago that it’s just a faint memory in my dream, so I’m sort of remembering it as I’m on the run from the police. And I’m totally guilty of it.
I’m a massive Steven Seagal fan. I know his movies are horrible, but I’ve watched all of them over and over again. I’d want to do a movie with him and Van Damme.
The only thing that matters is to have charm and expression. Then comes that horrible gnawing doubt of our own magnetism. Is it possible that, though we are not lovely, we are not irresistible either? That we will have to go through life belonging neither to the triumphantly beautiful nor to the triumphantly ugly?
My mom and dad were actors when they were younger and had a horrible experience of it. My dad became a literary agent and my mom a casting director.
I don’t put myself through that nauseating experience of looking at someone’s face while they go through your stuff. Ugh! It’s just horrible! It gives me the cringes to even think about it.
Hillary Clinton is a dud. She’s horrible.
People think that unless you become the de-glam girl, who has horrible things happening to her, you’re not really acting; all it takes to cry for the camera is some glycerine. Not doing anything is what’s difficult; I know a lot of actors who will agree with me.
I think I’m really quite horrible to myself in many ways.
Life is full of horrible mistakes.
In the beginning of the Great War, the emotions of Europe ran riot in a most horrible manner, first among the so-called ‘living,’ and then among the killed when they awoke.
When I was growing up, I was eating fast food every day. I’d drink soda non-stop, candy, just everything. It was horrible. My go-to was McDonald’s, for sure.
The only way you can handle big kinds of questions is to simply state briefly what the truth was. What am I going to tell you about the Holocaust? Would you like three pages about it? I don’t think you would… I don’t think anything different than you think – it was horrible.
Dark witches focus on dark magic, black magic and all kinds of horrible things. I don’t believe white witches have warts on them either, or pointy noses.
You don’t get happy by sitting around going on, ‘Oh this is a horrible situation, what to do?’ You’ve got to find the courage to change that. I think change is extremely hard for people.
My father was an autodidact. It wasn’t a middle-class house. Shopkeepers are aspirant. He paid for me to go to private school. He was denied an education – he had a horrible childhood. He got a place at a grammar school and wasn’t allowed to go.
I’m avoiding having an assistant because then I would become the horrible boss. I can’t justify having an assistant as a 25-year-old; I just can’t do it!
The country is yearning to put behind all these horrible things that have to do with corruption, state capture, behind us. The sooner these are all done, the better, because we want to move on; we want to move on to a better life.
Horrible things can happen to you, and horrible things happened to us on September 11. But if we look for love and happiness and fulfillment, we will find it.
Technology, you know. I’m pretty horrible. I use it, but mostly I like to view it from afar. But I’m still fascinated by it.
My son has been called many names, accused of many horrible crimes. As a father, I’ve borne all the humiliation that my son has undergone.
I have lots of favorite shows, but not reality! I don’t like reality TV so much. I’m saddened by people who don’t show respect to each other and to themselves. It’s horrible. Unfortunately, that’s demonstrated a lot on reality television.
Some really good things kind of swing both ways and I like to see people that can swing really, really, really sad and horrible and terrible and really, really, really beautiful and funny.
It is disgusting that ‘Life & Style’ and ‘InTouch’ magazines continue to print these false stories about my life: the status of my marriage, false reports about a miscarriage, the horrible lie that my dad is not my biological father, jealousy over my sisters’ lives, etc.
Movies are boring. It’s like watching paint dry. I did a little role in a movie, and it was eight lines. I was there for three days. It’s just horrible. Television is 15 hour days. Movies are 18 hour days. And it’s 18 hours of doing not a thing.
Criticism really used to hurt me. Most of these critics are usually frustrated artists, and they criticise other people’s art because they can’t do it themselves. It’s a really disgusting job. They must feel horrible inside.
I’ve never rejected the world I came from. To be rejected by it is horrible.
The American people have determined that the good to be derived from capital punishment – in deterrence, and perhaps most of all in the meting out of condign justice for horrible crimes – outweighs the risk of error.
As long as my body holds out, I’ll be grooving when I’m 70, and not some sort of horrible spectacle.
Sometimes when we label something dystopian fiction, I feel like we’re trying very hard not to use the words ‘science fiction,’ because science fiction has those horrible connotations of rocket ships and bodacious babes.
With every interview you feel like you lose a piece of yourself, and with every bad review you become just that little bit more bitter. It is horrible in a way.
Young people will tell you, if you’re not prepared to write the most violent, the most misogynistic, the most horrible kinds of rhymes and scenarios, you are not going to get air play.
People do horrible things.
I had a hip replacement a couple of years ago. I have a song about that. And why wouldn’t you? It strikes me that that was a huge event. It’s kind of funny and horrible and interesting, so why wouldn’t one write about that?
It is a horrible feeling to have people bashing you online.
I think it’s too easy often to find a villain out of the headlines and to then repeat that villainy again and again and again. You know, traditionally, America has always looked to scapegoat someone as the boogie man… there is a tradition in the most simplistic of action movies for there to be some horrible villain.
