I’m drawn particularly to stories that evolve out of the character of the protagonist.
I’m drawn to interesting female characters and good storylines.
I’m drawn to ordinary people who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances, which is a big part of the human condition.
It is the element I miss in electronic music – no performance, no loving immersion. Maybe that is why I was never particularly drawn to electronic music.
I’ve always been drawn to discomfort and that limbo of unease you get between comedy and tragedy. Making people laugh one moment and the next making them feel really uncomfortable.
I’m very drawn to the story of Carla Bruni. Why is everyone talking about her? Specifically because everyone sees the first lady, but they know she was somewhere, topless, and had some Hollywood lover. There is some contrast in this person. I have these contrasts.
In my films that I’ve directed, and my work in commercials and videos, I’ve rarely used handheld. It’s just not something I’m drawn to, but I’ve seen it done very well.
I was drawn to West Africa. I did listen to a bunch of different styles of African music, and there was something about the percussion and the drums of West Africa, and the energy, that felt so cinematic to me.
I’ve always been drawn to older women.
I’m drawn to playing characters who are terribly flawed and have no idea about it.
Being gay myself, I’m naturally drawn to the interactions between men rather than men and women.
Most of the characters I’m drawn to, as an actor, are ones that are quite intensely lonely and a bit lost and are looking for some kind of redemptive answer.
I feel people naturally have a brightness. When that is extinguished by circumstances – be it a wrong marriage or a situation that you cannot leave psychologically – there’s something about that dying spark that I’m drawn to playing.
I’ve always been drawn to ambiguity in pop music.
Do not be taken in by ‘insiderisms.’ Fledgling columnists, eager to impress readers with their grasp of journalistic jargon, are drawn to such arcane spellings as ‘lede.’ Where they lede, do not follow.
I am drawn to characters that go on journeys, characters that are real people, that have life.
Comedians are not well people. Well people are not drawn to creating.
I have got pictures all around the rooms I sit in. I have got a very mad picture of a dog standing on a black thing on a piece of rope. It was drawn and painted by a Romanian poet who was under house arrest, and it is terrific.
The relationship between Cathy and Mom in the strip is the one relationship drawn from real life that I have proudly never even tried to disguise.
‘When Katie Met Cassidy’ is a romantic comedy about two very different women who find themselves uncontrollably drawn to one another. Issues of gender and sexuality play their part in the novel, but first and foremost, it’s a fun, fast-paced love story.
As a reader since very early, I have found myself drawn to rants.
We are all seduced by charismatic people, whether it’s in your office or in the bus or in the train. There are people who just, like, come through the door, and everybody turns around and looks at them and feels drawn to them.
Most writers are drawn to what is unknown, rather than what is clear in any tale.
I adore Copenhagen, where I live, but I’m really drawn to New York.
Many a secret that cannot be pried out by curiosity can be drawn out by indifference.
I’m drawn to cinema, especially when you’re on a project that feels like it’s going to be a challenge.
If you are not a feminist in love, you fail to recognise someone who does not love you. Feminism makes love easier. Otherwise, there is the danger of feeling romantically drawn to someone who does not see you as an equal.
Most believers struggle to really believe in the supernatural as a meaningful, deterministic reality except during moments when they are drawn to it, perhaps during a worship service or while reading a novel like ‘Adam.’ Being drawn to this truth is the first step to living a life in accordance to this truth.
Reading Stephen King’s book, On Writing, was like being cornered and forced to have a long, drawn out mental enema.
The characters that I’m typically drawn to are sensitive men who are experiencing some sense of identity crisis or growth in their life that they don’t know how to overcome.
The big battle at the end of DW isn’t drawn from history, but it’s influenced by history, certainly.
I was always drawn to gospel music and the roots of African-American music. It’s the foundation of rock and roll.
I am drawn to the mystery of marriage. You can never know what the contract is between two people, and that is a very strong subject. I think it may be my subject.
I’m drawn to roles that have real substance, that aren’t just the victim or the teenage girl or the girlfriend.
There have been no sects in the Christian world, however absurd, which have not endeavoured to support their opinions by arguments drawn from Scripture.
Initially I was very drawn to the Tao Te Ching, the Taoist philosophy. It was helping me deal with the balance of these external and internal issues with my chess life. Tai chi is the martial embodiment of Taoist philosophy. Initially, I had no intention of competing in the martial arts; it was just the meditation.
Hand-drawn animation is something that I feel really strongly about. A Pixar movie may be really great, but it looks like it was drawn by a machine.
I get drawn in when I feel there is something deep and mysterious going on beneath the surface of something.
It’s hard to find things that haven’t been said before or drawn before, but I’m trying.
I was a total floral hippie as a child so when I finally could make my own choices, I’ve been living in different black suit jackets and been really drawn to masculine clothes.
The ultimate part that I want to play in my life is Jimi Hendrix, so I guess I’m drawn to music even though I can’t sing or dance very well.
I was always drawn to Broadway musicals, and obviously composers like Gershwin, Rodgers, Berlin and Porter were writing music that I found wildly impressive.
We recognise that, with time, every human being will cease being, will only have been. And so we seek to resist time. We rebel against it. We are drawn like lovers to the unreachable past, to imagined memories, to nostalgia.
But no, I don’t think I’m particularly drawn to the period roles or the medieval roles.
I’m drawn to roles where someone has to struggle or fight.
I like to be able to get swift curves in the plant drawings that are usually drawn in five to ten minutes.
I’ve always had an affinity for the fashion industry – I’ve always been drawn to it. But I grew up in Calgary in Canada, which, being a fairly isolated city, is not particularly known for having anything to do with fashion.
Some people are drawn naturally – there are natural guitarists, and there are natural piano players, and I think guitar implies travel, a sort of footloose gypsy existence. You grab your bag and you go to the next town.
As long as the United States – and the world – gets its oil from the Middle East, we will be drawn into the endless crises that seem endemic to the region. American energy independence would not only liberate us, it would also drive down the worldwide price of oil.
I believe there’s no proverb but what is true; they are all so many sentences and maxims drawn from experience, the universal mother of sciences.
I’ve always drawn, for example, and I did consider when I was younger, it was either do I become an actor or do I become an animator cartoonist at that point. Do I work at Disneyworld or something and do animated cells or something?
Otherness is a big thing for me. I’m always drawn to characters that live lives that I couldn’t lead.
I struggled with feeling confident for a long time, but I think it’s important to be strong and not compromise for anyone or a relationship – I’m drawn to that.
I was drawn to love songs, but I was just drawn to great music – no matter if it’s hip-hop, pop, R&B or whether it’s rock n’ roll or country. It could be a Garth Brooks song, and if it’s a smash, then I’ll love the different wordplay and different melodies. That’s what I’m a fan of – great music.
Hold a picture of yourself long and steadily enough in your mind’s eye, and you will be drawn toward it.
I’ve always been sort of drawn to storytelling, and I was always very playful growing up.
I was just a little three-year-old kid, and I loved Hulk Hogan. And when you’re a three-year-old kid, you don’t list off the reasons. I was just drawn to him. He was always my favorite, even in the video games and everything like that. He was the one that I always remembered and liked the most.
Religious organizations exist to foster the interests of persons subscribing to the same religious faith. Not so of for-profit corporations. Workers who sustain the operations of those corporations commonly are not drawn from one religious community.
I’m not sure whay I’ve been drawn to this subject, except that murder is a subject that has always drawn people for as long as people have been telling stories.
People have drawn me, which is super cool. I’d love to print some out and put them on my wall.
