I love Christy Turlington in the ’80s and ’90s. Classic.
We do hear perhaps too many accolades generally aimed at people like Steve Jobs. We have to remember that there are other classic things in life that we undervalue and take them for granted. If you think of the classic lines of the modern jet aircraft, it’s really been there since early World War II.
I’ve always dressed the same. I’ve never made a fashion mistake. I’ve always worn utilitarian. I started my collection because I wanted certain specific things, but before that it was vintage and classic Brooks Brothers.
A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.
These are classic, perennial ideals we are dealing with.
I don’t live in this soul music bubble. I love Young Thug, Drake, Kendrick Lamar. I even heard that Kendrick was a fan of my music. Hopefully there’s a door open for us to do music together. He’s one of my favorite artists. I love Jazmine Sullivan, Lianne la Havas, Usher, Ginuwine. It goes further than classic soul.
‘Romeo And Juliet’ is the classic love story. When two lovers are separated and trying to get back to one another, that’s fiercely romantic and something you become glued to.
For me it always comes down to what is a good song and I’m very old fashioned in the way that I like to make songs that have something classic about them whether you can play them with an orchestra or an electro synthesizer or an acoustic guitar.
I don’t think you can ever remake a classic.
I don’t buy into any of that hogwash. They put that out to sell tickets. It’s just a classic horror movie, with the Greek drama formula of good versus evil, and lots of fear.
I’m not trying to be new school and I’m not old school – I’m classic. There’s a lot of new cars and there’s a lot of old cars, but I’m just classic in doing what I do.
Mrs. Ari’s style on ‘Entourage’ is so fabulous. Gucci is a go-to for her because every season there is something fun, but there’s also something classic.
I race in two or three classic races a year and I may carry on for 10 more years or I may stop tomorrow.
‘The Big Sky’ is an American classic.
In the late ’80s and early ’90s, there was a slightly retro drum sound that was popular in hip-hop music called the 808 bass drum sound. It was the bass drum sound on the 808 drum machine, and it’s very deep and very resonant, and was used as the backbone as a lot of classic hip-hop tracks.
The knish is a classic example of peasant food evolving into comfort food and even sophisticated fare.
I love Thandie Newton. I love her fashion sense as she is just really classic.
What drives me is exploration with a purpose, more the classic Royal Geographical Society genre.
Fashion is mysterious, as a rule. Why are blue jeans a classic? You just hit on something that happens to be timeless and right.
At 14, I was in my own little classic rock country band. Then, after high school, I started another band called Northern Comfort. That was based out of Chico, Calif.

Any time you change something classic or iconic, you’re going to have some part of the fan base up in arms.
I’d love to tackle a classic Shakespeare play or take on Nora Helmer in ‘A Doll’s House.’ Musical theater, it’s the classics like Rodgers and Hammerstein and Cole Porter’s ‘Kiss Me Kate.’ I’m much more a Julie Andrews-type soprano than an Idina Menzel.
I like my body, I like to have fun with what I put on, but I also want to remain classic. So I guess my signature is sexy and eclectic but classic.
We want to make the old fast food model irrelevant. We want to make great ingredients and classic cooking techniques accessible to everybody.
I had a classic gym teacher in junior high who wore a weightlifter’s belt all the time.
If you try to multitask in the classic sense of doing two things at once, what you end up doing is quasi-tasking. It’s like being with children. You have to give it your full attention for however much time you have, and then you have to give something else your full attention.
When you look at Mark Zuckerberg and Snapchat and all these twentysomething billionaires, it’s really kind of fascinating; a classic tale of the haves and have-nots.
I know that a ridiculous number of classic serials have been commissioned, and that reviews show a reaction against them. The critics seem fed up.
The original ‘Scream’ is one of those classic things, but it totally pokes fun at itself too. It’s never taking itself too seriously, which is why I think it’s such a cult classic.
When I was a kid, and for many years after, I was your classic afraid-to-dance-type person.
Just classic immigrant story – I mean, child of immigrant story – did not grow up with cable and so felt constantly like I was being spoken to in a foreign language when I would go to school. And people would be like, did you watch this? Did you watch that? I’d be like, no, but I did watch ‘SNL.’
Prior to the Cruiserweight Classic, I had a tryout with WWE in 2013 and was told that I wasn’t what they were looking for at the moment.
I love the blues. I love rock. I love classic rock. I love country. All types of music I can appreciate.
What makes a classic is difficult to define. It’s entirely subjective, of course. And the term is employed far too promiscuously.

I absolutely adore classic crime and read a huge amount as a teen – Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, Sherlock Holmes, Josephine Tey, and many more.
‘Of Mice and Men,’ Steinbeck’s fifth novel, adheres to a simple dramatic structure, which observes the classic Aristotelian unities of time, place and action.
My interest in Princess Margaret comes through Vanessa Kirby’s brilliant portrayal of her in ‘The Crown.’ Rather than do the classic story from beginning to end, this book gives you many different glimpses. You get a much more intimate sense of the person through little incidents, stories, and gossip.
I grew up in the ’90s. My goal isn’t to be a ’90s rapper, but I have little hints of ’90s influence in my music. It’s a modern approach to classic rap.
I am all about old school romance. I love everything about the classic relationships.
I know in Britain with ‘Doctor Who’ all the classic actors, and the people who you’d really want to, work on the show. I like that the fact that ‘Torchwood’ has actors that want to be involved from the stage. It has raised our game, and I’m just happy for good actors who want to be in sci-fi shows who love the genre.
‘Sholay’ can and should never be remade. It is a classic, just like ‘Mughal-e-Azam.’ The magic which the movie created at that time cannot be repeated.
I like Tom Ford a lot because it’s so classic and has great quality. I wear a lot of Rag & Bone.
My music is more than me writing a flashy soul song. They’re heartfelt songs about my family and true stories. I have also songs that aren’t personal, but just painting a picture. I don’t like being put under labels, but my music is going to continue to stay classic and timeless forever.
In science, read, by preference, the newest works; in literature, the oldest. The classic literature is always modern.
My grandmother had always played show tunes from classic musicals at the piano when we were growing up, so that helped me fall in love with Rodgers and Hammerstein, Cole Porter, Lerner and Loewe, etc.
I was the classic killer. I always played an angry man. I think it was because I used to really be like that – I was hostile. And because I had a good sense of theatrical truth, I used my anger and rebelliousness and just went with it. Anger was just a part of me.
I’m a classic Church of England member, but part of its strength is the fact that it doesn’t ask us to sign up to too much of a canon… but I’ve always found the teachings of Jesus and the Bible quite useful as a sort of handy guide.
In the beginning, I was so inspired by the music. I had the option to make something modern with classic undertones, but I wanted to make something that was exactly like that old sound.

Kermit was the Everyman, the original Tom Hanks, but I have a special place in my heart for Fozzie Bear. The classic borderline hacky entertainer.
So I have the classic amateur’s technique; I know some very tricky bits and I have large gaping holes.
Nathaniel Philbrick’s ‘In the Heart of the Sea’ has rightfully taken its place as a classic for its literary merits. It has a special place in the cannibalism canon as well.

There’s this classic car crash thing about ‘Macbeth.’ You can just see this car driving at 100 mph towards this brick wall, and you can’t do anything about it, and the characters are desperately trying to stop it and can’t.
