Mormonism is not historic Christianity. When people say, ‘Well, Mormons and Christians all believe the same things,’ my response is, ‘If that’s true, why are they always on my front doorstep trying to convert me?’
Some people say I chastise the Republican Party too much.
You know what the Englishman’s idea of compromise is? He says, Some people say there is a God. Some people say there is no God. The truth probably lies somewhere between these two statements.
I love John McCririck. Not a lot of people say that! Part of his misogynistic ways are very real, but part of it is a little act.
A lot of people say ‘Boo’d Up’ reminds them of ’90s R&B. It has that feeling, which is why I think people take to the song so much.
I endorse a lot of people – sometimes people say I endorse too many books. And my response has always been the same: If I can get one case study that can give me one good idea that I can implement for $25, or for these days one-third of that on Kindle, I’ve gotten a very good deal.
I am really not a speedcuber. My best time when I was practicing was about a minute. Usually people say if you can create a piano, you must be a good piano player, but it is not true. They are different type of human activities and need different capabilities.
Although my parents both liked her, they just didn’t approve of a same-sex relationship. Nowadays, people say that you must let children be what they are, but when I was growing up, the parents defined the child – and my parents had a definite vision of how they wanted me to be.
I just want people to remember me like I remember Buster Keaton. When they talk about Buster Keaton or Gene Kelly, people say, ‘Ah yes, they good.’ Maybe one day, they remember Jackie Chan that way.
People say, When you have children, everything changes. But maybe things are awakened that were already there.
Immortality. We all want to be remembered: We want to do things that will make people say, ‘Isn’t he wonderful?’
You know, whatever people say, nothing’s going to change it – what I think, what I’m capable of.
Despite what people say about my major film roles, I’m not a dull or monotonous woman searching for self-identity.
If I know what’s true in my heart and my soul, then what people say can’t shape that.
People say to me, ‘What are you going to be doing in five years?’ The thing is, I don’t care! It’s what I’m doing today that matters.
It’s funny when people say you have sex appeal or call you the next Brad Pitt. I just laugh. I’m not that. I don’t want to be that.
Remember who you are. Remember to be strong and don’t care about what people say.
It harms me when people say I am ‘non-mainstream’ or ‘non-commercial’ actor. I try to fight off such labels.
At a lot of college graduations, you’ll hear people say, ‘Follow your passions,’ and that is important, but no one talks about the stress of not having enough money, the issues of debt, and the issues of work stress.
I always think – when I get mad, and people say, ‘Don’t be the angry black woman’ – it’s like, well, why not? There’s so much to be angry about.
I am Chinese – it doesn’t matter what other people say.
People say it’s really the press who create those soundbites about fashion. That’s what sells magazines and clothes.
Nirvana was pop. You can have distorted guitars and people say it’s alternative, but you can’t break out of pop music’s constructs and still get extensive radio play and media coverage.
No matter what people say outside of football, we don’t work for money, we work for the love of the game and the money is something that follows.
When all of a sudden, people say, ‘Wow, you look nice,’ and carry on, it’s shocking. Really awkward.
I always surprise myself with my voice. A lot of people don’t get it, and they’re like, ‘You can’t sing. Stop. What are you doing?’ And it’s funny to hear a lot people say I sing in falsetto because it’s not falsetto – that’s my voice.
‘Entourage’ is a staple L.A.-based show, and people say it’s pretty real, and I thought it was. It’s an exaggeration of the truth.
It’s nice when people say, ‘God, I’ve been listening to you since 1963 or 1985, or whatever.’ I appreciate anybody who goes out and buys music these days.
I think when people say ‘real hip-hop,’ they want it more buried in the streets. They want it more connected to the streets and the grime and the roughness of the streets. They don’t want the fluff.
It’s one thing to put out the opportunity, but it’s another to take it and run with it. People say to me, ‘Thank you for the opportunity,’ and I always respond with, ‘Thank you for taking it.’ We need to be able to see where, how, these changes can grow. Rome wasn’t built in a day, nor was WWE.
I first went to Barcelona in 1975 after university, and I stayed for three years. I learnt Catalan because that’s what everyone speaks in the mountains. They speak English to foreigners, but what people say to each other is much more important than what they say to you.
So many young people say, ‘I’m just going to see what happens.’ It’s so much more powerful to make things happen and have a plan.
I’ll hear people say every so often that having HIV must not be so bad – ‘Just look at Magic and how well he’s doing.’
I think that you should definitely listen to what people say, because everyone says it: High school is not the real world.
My dad told me something long before I was in politics, and when your dad gives you advice every single day, eventually one or two of the things stick in your mind. And he said, don’t believe what people say, believe what they do.
If you’re convinced as an artist of what you’re doing, the only move is to, no matter what people say or what management says or your best friends say or people on Facebook, do what you do, and people will find their way to it.
I’m humble ’cause I think many years ago people say, ‘Well, Alibaba’s terrible company’. And I know we were not that terrible. We’re pretty good; we’re better than people thought. But today, when people have a high expectation on you, and I start to worry and nervous because we are not good yet.
I like ‘Brawl in Cell Block 99.’ I think Vince Vaughn is incredible and I’ve never seen Don Johnson like that. It is very realistic. Some people say it is a horror film. It is not a horror film at all. It is very realistic.
When people say England, they sometimes mean Great Britain, sometimes the United Kingdom, sometimes the British Isles, – but never England.
When people say to me, ‘You’re so prolific!’ it’s, like, no, I’m just hopeless with money.
Running a successful, growing company in Silicon Valley can create an ironic sort of depression and delusion. The better you’re doing, the higher the stakes, and higher expectations for you to win. Maybe that’s why people say it’s so hard. But that doesn’t make it hard. That just makes it distracting.
When people say that George Harrison made me famous, that is true in a way.
A lot of people say I seem masculine, but I don’t feel it. I feel intrinsically feminine. I’d love to be one of the boys but I always felt a bit on the outside. Maybe my masculine qualities come from overcompensating because I’m not one of the boys.
I don’t really focus on these things – on what tags are given to me or what people think of me off the field – stuff like that. My main focus is always to do well on the field for the Indian cricket team. When people say good things about me off the field, I am more than happy to accept them.
Quite often you hear people say, ‘What about separation of church and state?’ There is no such thing.
You’ll hear people say now, ‘Oh, I don’t want to see something in 3-D. That’s wrong, because what they’ve seen is 3-D done poorly.
People say I’m not good at writing about men. My dad left when I was 16. Give me a break. I’m doing the best I can.
I’ve done my share of period stuff. I’m not sure why, but people say I have a period face. The bread and butter of British TV is Jane Austen adaptations and bridges and bonnets and boats and horses.
People say my music is English. I don’t know what it is. Maybe it’s not me writing English music, but that English music is becoming more like me.
I never turn on the crowd. Sometimes, you think it’s a terrible show, and then afterward, sometimes people say they really liked it. So turning on the crowd is only going to alienate the few people who might like it. What do I do in that situation? Get through it.
If you put a demo on the net and people say it was the finished version then they’re going to say it sucks. I really hate that.
People say that I’m a millionaire, but that’s not true – I only spend millions.
Well concerning the world records that I did, I think it helps a lot to me, yeah. I think it’s a very individual thing because I heard some people say, like, oh I don’t like it at all. But I definitely, for me it really made a big difference.
A good journalist is not the one that writes what people say, but the one that writes what he is supposed to write.
My biggest nightmare is I’m driving home and get sick and go to hospital. I say: ‘Please help me.’ And the people say: ‘Hey, you look like…’ And I’m dying while they’re wondering whether I’m Barbra Streisand.
When people say, ‘Nothing’s coming to me,’ they usually don’t like what’s coming to them.
Some people say that practice makes perfect but I just feel that the repetition works against me and I start thinking too far ahead during a show.
