I don’t think people should do things because you know, ‘I am turning this age, I must go have a husband.’ If you find somebody and it works out then have kids, it’s very nice. But if you don’t, you don’t.
The cast of ‘Parks & Rec’ is just a group of unbelievably nice, humble, down to earth, hilarious friends.
I’ve been a fan of The Rock ever since he first came to wrestling. Every time I went to school, I talked about The Rock. So when I finally got to meet him I couldn’t believe it! When he walked through the door, I went bug-eyed! ‘I’m standing next to The Rock, man!’ He’s huge. He’s very nice, though.
Sure, I like ice cream, but when you keep a healthy lifestyle, it’s: Do you prefer sweets and crappy food, or do you prefer to have a nice body? It depends on what you want more.
The escape to an unchallenging fairy tale can be very nice and I’m all for that, but film can also challenge you to confront the realities of our world.
What’s been nice is that I’ve been able to direct from a very idealistic place. I’ve never had to make my living as a director, which gave me a chance to choose material I feel passionate about. The directing allows me to not have to grab any acting role that comes along. I can pick and choose a little bit.
It’s a nice challenge to escape your reality. I think that’s why actors do what we do. We like to play other people. It’s therapeutic.
To wake up when the sun comes up and enjoy that and then, when the sun goes down, to have a nice property or house where I could watch it on my porch when I’m older. It would be peaceful.
Germans make nice cars.
I think there’s nothing better than laughing in life, so that’s nice, to be thought of as someone who can make someone laugh. It’s ’cause I think life is hard. You know, my dad was a really silly man. A great Irish silly man. And that’s fine.
I am an earring person, so I like wearing just nice, big earrings.
I wasn’t looking for another marriage. I had been married before. He is a nice man – a geologist, an Ernest Hemingway type. But Paul and I married because of convention.
I am but a blank canvas, because everyone interprets you in a different way, and I think that’s quite nice.
You must live life in its very elementary forms. The Mexicans have a very nice word for it: pura vida. It doesn’t mean just purity of life, but the raw, stark-naked quality of life. And that’s what makes young people more into a filmmaker than academia.
A lot of what I’ve done as Nine Inch Nails has been governed by fear. I was trying to keep the songs in a framework that was tough, and I learnt a lot from Jesus and Mary Chain about how to bury nice pop songs in unlistenable noise – the idea being if you can get behind that wall, you find there’s a pearl inside.
Johnny Rotten. He’s a big fan of mine. I used to see him out in the audience in England and he’d stand up and holler. He’s funny. Smart too, and a nice guy. Don’t think he’s a jerk because he isn’t.
My fantasy breakfast is just a really good egg scramble. Maybe I’ll add a little feta, so, uh, obviously not totally dairy-free. Definitely some vegetables, maybe some really nice tortillas; something to make it like a Mexican-style breakfast. I just really love breakfast.
Mum and Dad used to do a lot of entertaining. We had quite a nice house, so everybody descended on us at Christmas – aunts and uncles, who weren’t even aunts and uncles.
It’s nice to be in a creative world that’s kind of isolated, but you can get led astray down some pathway while you’re recording that you might not like later. And there’s a lot of time to get in your own head and stay there.
I’ve come up with a bridal collection, and for Diwali, I’ve done really nice kadhas, long danglers, and fun-affordable daily wear pieces.
A great figure or physique is nice, but it’s self-confidence that makes someone really sexy.
Being a nice girl from the Mid-West, my inclination is always to give in and say yes because I want people to like me.
I am really nice. But not in the cage.
You do get some weirdos, but if there are any nice people out there who want to write to me pleasantly, then they’ll get a pleasant reply back!
I like the nice guys. I like when they show the stories, the human element behind it all.
I think the path is different for everybody. Go after the doors that are open to you. That has always been my motto getting into the music business. Do the things that seem to be good opportunities and work hard at it. Try to make good decisions and be nice. Hopefully all of that will pay off at some point.
Serendipity is nice, but hoping for luck and the magic of happenstance shouldn’t be an excuse for a lack of proactivity. I had to learn for myself that waiting isn’t a life plan.
You rarely see women being nice to each other on television anymore.
When I’m working I don’t have room to think about myself and my own issues. It’s really freeing. There is no room for me, which is really nice.
It’s nice to stay up nights worrying about the material, and not about the investors who gave you $10 million to do your musical.
A naughty part of me thinks, how come Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry and Tim McInnerny have all done really good parts in a film, whereas I’ve only ever done bits and bobs? Before I die, wouldn’t it be nice to be the scheming old man in a movie?
One of the nice things about being a private company is operating without the intensity of public glare. It’s hard to grow a company under a microscope of constant second guessing.
I’m seeing a guy now who has nothing to do with films. It’s so much nicer with somebody who isn’t an actor. Two crazy people in one house would be too much. It’s better there’s one crazy person, and one nice person who looks after that crazy person.
If I had children, as soon as I have them, I’m teaching them everything I know. I don’t want to feed you fairytales. Fairytales are nice. But they come to an end, and then you have to face reality.
I don’t know what drippy means, but it’s not very nice. To be drippy. I don’t feel like I drip much at all.
I have nice muscle tone in my arms. I can’t really take credit for it, though – all the members of my family do. A lot of arm wrestling happened in our family growing up!
We didn’t care about salaries and having a nice car. We just cared about science and were really ambitious.
It would perhaps be nice to be alternately the victim and the executioner.
Sometimes I get lonely, but it’s nice to be alone.
I think careful cooking is love, don’t you? The loveliest thing you can cook for someone who’s close to you is about as nice a valentine as you can give.
One of my life’s watchwords is ‘hyggelig.’ It’s an untranslatable Danish term for getting together with friends and family and sitting around in a cosy atmosphere with nice food and wine and candles.
That’s a very nice compliment, for somebody to be described as having grit, having some gravel in the gut.
I used to not be confident. My father certainly didn’t add to my confidence. When I was 17 or 18, I was voted the most beautiful girl in England by the association of press photographers. When they called Daddy for a comment, he said, ‘I’m amazed. She’s a nice looking girl, but nothing special.’
Manchester City, the club and the fans, they were amazing. But I’m sorry, the city wasn’t that nice. I was all the time at home, and I didn’t enjoy it. It was raining all the time. I was a little bit upset.
I prefer cynical people. Nice guys grow on trees.
I read a lot of obscure books and it is nice to open a book.
Twenty years ago I wanted to move to a nice place so our Charley would grow up a nice boy and learn a profession. But instead we live in a jungle, so he can only be a wild animal. D’you think I picked the East Side like Columbus picked America?
Not to be vain, but I have nice long legs, so I like to accentuate them. Find what part of your body you love most – it can be your arms, your chest, your legs – and emphasize that.
You can crack a joke and make a person smile but it matters a lot when that’s on screen. It can be a very nice joke but if you shoot it badly or the actor gets the timing wrong, it won’t be funny.
I record my radio show, and my staff makes me a nice lunch in the kitchen, usually fish – whatever’s freshest and line-caught – and a salad. I drink water and herbal tea, a blend of catnip, elderberry, and horehound.
A nice blend of prediction and surprise seem to be at the heart of the best art.
If you want to look right now under Obama who our enemies are, just look at who he is nice to.
It’s nice, I think, when people use your music for things you didn’t think of.
People sometimes recognize me here, but they are very nice.
It’s nice to have some continuity you can come back to. I feel that in coming home, coming back to London.
It’s nice to have been around long enough to be a part of people’s lives. A lot of people who come to my show are real nostalgic for the ’80s.
I raised my kids kind of old-fashioned – if you don’t have something nice to say, then don’t say it at all. I teach love, acceptance, and tolerance… I sometimes think that this generation is lacking in decency.
One of the nice things about licensing music to movies or advertisements is you can reach a lot of people who normally wouldn’t hear music.
