There are a lot of people I look up to and respect, but there’s nobody really specific I would call a hero.

People predicted in the 1910s that live theater was going to be all gone and that we’d just be watching movies. No, live theater is still around, because it does things that are specific to it.
I made a specific choice not to call my collection Ivanka. There’s so much value in the Trump name. And there’s such a deep connection to luxury and success.
With ‘Mask,’ ‘Smooth Talk’ and ‘Blue Velvet,’ I loved the specific experiences so much. Each one was a specific filmmaker with a specific vision.

I collect… for a long time, I collected Nike Air Max 90s, this specific shoe.

I moderated a panel focusing just on women and the specific challenges that women entrepreneurs face. And we found that around the world, the challenges are the same, whether it is gaining access to capital, risk-taking, or the ability to expand beyond a small business and grow.
I like stories in specific time periods. ‘The Revenant’s’ era of American history was fascinating because it was this lawless no-man’s land. It defined the idea of the American frontiersman as man conquering nature. In a way, the story of Hugh Glass is about man dominating nature.

Breughel is an example of an artist – I mean, this is true about artists and painters in general, but he is a specific example of an artist whose work contains more than you think it does at first glance. Whose work rewards, sustains attention and looking.
Now, we don’t get that many specific threats against sporting events, per se. But we know from listening to the chatter how terrorists want to attack iconic events.

As Fallingwater demonstrates, Wright’s genius was always specific, but also always lively, always daring.

My specific goal is for Twice is to travel across the U.S. together, performing for fans in every state. That would be a dream!
I never had to do anything specific to craft my ‘image.’ I wanted people to know that I was a goofball, that I didn’t take myself too seriously, and that I love what I do. On my Twitter and Instagram, whenever I can, I try and show myself. I’m not trying to be an Instagram model.
I used to think that, when I was a director, I would have a very specific vision of what everything would look like, but now I am more of a camp counselor.

I’ve done specific work to take care of anxiety. I believe that the psychological side can work for you just as it can against you. The better your command is over the psychological aspect, the better your physical performance. There’s no other way.

Looking back on high school, I just remember specific scenarios and thinking, wow, that was such a big deal at the time, but right now it feels like it never even happened. So I guess if I can give any advice, I would just say that everything will pass, and it’ll feel like it was a big deal over nothing.
The Memorial Finder covers the gap. It tells you the specific panel and number where you can find an individual but begins to reveal the connections between the names themselves. As you move around the site itself, a smartphone app will reveal adjacencies as well as the stories behind the names.
I guess that in this process of trying to incorporate or to be faithful to the films I admire so much, that’s how I start to find my own voice. The admiration I have for filmmakers, this gratitude, perhaps that’s my only way to become specific.
Microeconomics is the study of how specific choices made by businesses, consumers and governments affect the markets for different goods and services. For example, a microeconomist might examine how price changes affect sales of apples relative to oranges.

Regional clustering of specific cancer types triggered some investigations on a potential role of infectious agents in these malignant proliferations.
I’m constantly listening to music and thinking about it and compiling my own cassettes and CDs in obsessively specific order. I have quite lunatic agendas for what I want to achieve. They won’t make sense to anyone other than me, but it is what I’ve spent most of my life doing.
