I was a litigation lawyer. That’s all very logical. Become a litigation lawyer. Become successful. Have a nice office. But there was some pull inside of me saying, self-publish this book. I followed that intuition and it’s been a great choice for me in my life.
Being from the Midwest, everyone knows I take pride in representing the U.S. and to have my own racket and bag is really nice.
I will go to a nice restaurant in Miami, and no one sitting at the tables will notice me or even know who I am. Then everyone in the kitchen comes out and wants to take a picture.
We don’t know, ultimately, if we’ll end up in San Francisco, but we’re talking about keeping the house. It would be nice to always have a place here.
The best luxury in the world isn’t a diamond ring or a nice house – well, it could be – but it’s privacy.
I’m not a competitive person, and I think women like me because they don’t think I’m competitive, just nice.
I think being a woman is like being Irish. Everyone says you’re important and nice, but you take second place all the same.
I grew up in New Jersey and played sports and rode my bike around. It was a really nice time – kids didn’t have cellphones then – and you knew everyone in the town.
I think it’s nice to let people know that there is an invisible part of the world. I think there are many people now who are interested in the invisible world.
Keep your private life private. Be open to suggestions from different people. And just be nice. I have heard stories about people who are just plain rude to the press or fans.
Friendship is two-sided. It isn’t a friend just because someone’s doing something nice for you. That’s a nice person. There’s friendship when you do for each other. It’s like marriage – it’s two-sided.
I love to travel, but sometimes it’s nice to stay in one place.
I think you’re the grumpy Kid in the Hall, I’m the nice Kid in the Hall.
I like Copenhagen, just because my shows there have been really good for some reason. Not that I love the city itself, but every time I play there it feels amazing. Pretty nice people there.
Hunter can write a melody and stuff like that, but his forte is lyrics. He can write a serviceable melody to hang his lyrics on, and sometimes he comes up with something really nice.
When one burns one’s bridges, what a very nice fire it makes.
I smile every time I hear that I’m a fan favorite or a teenage hottie. It is a nice compliment, and the remarks from the fans are great.
It is nice to have valid competition; it pushes you to do better.
The press don’t like to say nice things because nice is boring. It’s much better to label me the devil. What we do is not brain surgery. We are entertainers, plain and simple, and we’re responsible to bring that money back, to make a profit.
Nice people with common sense do not make interesting characters. They only make good former spouses.
It’s nice to be settled and enjoying my football, the new experience, playing in the Champions League and all the things you dream about when you start playing football.
The leaders who we admire who have been able to bring great change in the past – Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela – they’re all inspirational religious leaders and smart tacticians. It would be nice to find the Muslim Gandhi, wouldn’t it?
I think if you’re happy and you’re a nice person and you have a nice personality that always shines through.
My best friend was Aboriginal. She taught me about ‘bush tucker’ – the food of the land, the different things you could eat if you got lost in the bush, like grasses and berries. There’s this tree called the billygoat plum – the fruit is quite nice.
They say such nice things about people at their funerals that it makes me sad that I’m going to miss mine by just a few days.
You can’t have the finest buildings if they’re not in focus. They become like nice cars parked on the street.
I’m a nice guy. And I like to enjoy life, and be around people I love.
I grew up in a very nice house in Houston, went to private school all my life and I’ve never even been to the ‘hood. Not that there’s anything wrong with the ‘hood.
It’s nice being friends over a period of time with people whose music you like so much, or other filmmakers, seeing people change, go through trials.
All of the Vines that were acted & setup & had nice cameras, those weren’t the good Vines. The good Vines were, like, a random little kid in the middle of a forest, like, yelling.
Virtue is not photogenic. What is it to be a nice guy? To be nothing, that’s what. A big fat zero with a smile for everybody.
Thank God I never got in a fight. All of the jock dudes hated me, but all of their girlfriends thought I was nice so they wouldn’t touch me. It was infuriating to them.
Never wear a seersucker suit straight off the rack. It’s going to look shapeless and droopy. If you’re going to sport seersucker, whether a jacket, trousers or a full suit, have it fitted. A nice, custom, tailored fit makes all the difference in the world.
It’s nice coming to Nashville, and we have four-bedroom house and a dog, and we go swimming a lot. We get down here and spread out a lot, and I miss my sweet tea and my cornbread and my good southern cooking – but I’m down here eating pretty for two weeks and I’m ready to go back to New York City.
Australia is so cool that it’s hard to even know where to start describing it. The beaches are beautiful; so is the weather. Not too crowded. Great food, great music, really nice people. It must be a lot like Los Angeles was many years ago.
If you want your children to improve, let them overhear the nice things you say about them to others.
I guess maybe there is two sides of me – the nice guy and then the beast within.
Going out and being nice to the world at large doesn’t make me feel good, so I replace that with things, with technology that does get me excited and does get my brain spinning, until one day it stops spinning, and then you can bury me.
Americans adore me and will go on adoring me until I say something nice about them.
According to my parents, I was supposed to have been a nice, churchgoing Swiss housewife. Instead I ended up an opinionated psychiatrist, author and lecturer in the American Southwest, who communicates with spirits from a world that I believe is far more loving and glorious than our own.
DWYCK’ was only intended to be a B-side of ‘Take It Personal,’ because we had done a record with Nice & Smooth for their album, Ain’t a Damn Thing Changed, called ‘Down The Line.’ They were returning the favor with ‘DWYCK,’ being that we let them borrow the ‘Manifest’ instrumental.
I consider myself a good person. And I think people perceive me to be, ‘Oh, she’s nice,’ but being a good person, knowing your strengths and working towards those strengths, and encouraging those around you to do the same, that’s a good person.
I think it’s nice to have New Zealand as a base for me… it’s this little island on the bottom of the Earth. It’s this nice, quiet place.
I’m learning to accept myself. I’m still in the process of learning to love who I am. And it’s been really refreshing and really nice to be able to do that and be okay. I think my fans have brought that out in me.
At home I am a nice guy: but I don’t want the world to know. Humble people, I’ve found, don’t get very far.
I like a nice rumble on bass, openness on guitar and drums that breathe.
One of the nice things about science fiction is that it lets us carry out thought experiments.
It’s, you know, kind of nice to be under the radar.
I like to think I’ve got some nice glutes here.
Knitting is very conducive to thought. It is nice to knit a while, put down the needles, write a while, then take up the sock again.
It’s nice to be in an environment where you feel wanted.
I definitely learned to appreciate there is something about looking good. I think it’s been sort of lost in the last 50 years, this idea of looking very nice and very put together.
I just wanted to be angelic and pure and nice and kind.
Travel magazines are just one cupcake after another. They’re not about travel. The travel magazine is, in fact, about the opposite of travel. It’s about having a nice time on a honeymoon, or whatever.
It’s really easy to have a nice philosophy about openness, but moving the world in that direction is a different thing. It requires both understanding where you want to go and being pragmatic about getting there.
It’s nice to be in first place. But just because you’re not on a winner doesn’t mean you’re a loser.
What I want to do is produce really delicious food. I want it to look nice, because when you see food you should want to eat it. You shouldn’t be saying, ‘Oh my goodness, isn’t the chef clever, he can weave the Eiffel Tower out of carrot sticks.’
It’s kind of nice to play somebody that isn’t psychotic or half-machine or dead or dying or on a spaceship somewhere.
Starship Troopers was great. It was great fun to work on something with blue screens and big budget special effects. Denise Richards was nice to look at too, of course.
I think perfect dates involve walking a lot, and not a bunch of driving around in cars. Ideally, you can walk together and go to a restaurant, and then walk from there to another nice place – this is, I guess, because of really great dates that I’ve had with my wife here in Portland.
