There are more women editors than people realise. I think we’re more able to keep our eye on what the film needs. Between men, sometimes it’s a real ego battle, and that’s very bad for the film.
I think I’m an extremely good mother. I know I’m an extremely good mother. But I didn’t realise how much it sucks out of you.
Women are not stupid, but they were not clever enough to realise that feminism did not bring freedom, but the opposite. That’s why I’m glad feminism is dead.
The attraction to me was that Harvard was such a big community, with interesting things to do and interesting people, but you realise when you’re there that things are a lot narrower than you thought. It’s a little bit of a let-down.
I meet people who are famous, and it’s made me realise that fame has huge lifestyle disadvantages. I’m nervous about that. I don’t want to become a celebrity.
I’m very camera shy, but I realise it’s important to promote films.
I don’t think people realise the quality of player in the lower leagues.
It’s really important that young people realise very rarely do you become an overnight success.
I’m grown up enough to realise how to play cricket. I love the game.
Part of me is probably more conservative than people realise. I like my old string quartets, I don’t like music that’s trippy for trippy’s sake.
Only the filmmakers need to realise your potential.
When you get older, you realise it’s all about winning games and winning trophies.
People say, ‘When did you decide you were gay?’ and you think, ‘When did you decide you were heterosexual?’ It’s not a decision: it’s something you gradually begin to realise about yourself.
My life experience has made me realise what’s important and what is not.
My mother helped me to be who I am: to have strength and not to let people run all over me and yet to be humble; to realise that all of this that I have today could be gone.
I don’t want to just keep playing for the sake of playing. The day I realise I’m not good enough, I’ll go. I want to play as long as I can – not just to make up the numbers but to play with utmost passion.
Dyslexia, though, made me realise that people who say ‘but you can’t do that’ aren’t actually very important. I don’t take ‘no’ too seriously.
I am a Muslim, yes, but I am also very English. People don’t realise how proud I am to be representing my country or being from Birmingham.
Whether you’ve done anything wrong or not people will write whatever they want, so it’s just a matter of not reading it, not buying into it, and hopefully the people that do read it realise that it’s just fictional stories for entertainment.
I used to play as a No. 10, in Bilbao, in most of the games, but when I came to United, when you come to one of the biggest clubs in the world, you realise that if you want to be a No. 10, you have to score 10, 12 goals per season.
I realise that women don’t want to get treated differently but just equally. I don’t know what feminism is all about, but I understand that women should be treated equally, and I endorse that thought.
Training and playing are different things. I’ve noticed it. If you come in and you realise after six minutes that it is tiring, then that is a clear difference to training.
I’ve been five times to Mali, and when you’re there, it makes you feel differently, like you realise you’ve a lot in life to be thankful for, and you have to give something back as well.
The wonderful thing about maths is it’s a totally logical subject, and a pathway has been marked out. I think a lot of these things can be crystallised in something quite essential, that people can get. If I can’t explain it, I realise that’s probably because I don’t completely understand it myself.
We must realise that man’s nature will remain the same so long as he remains man; that civilisation is but a slight coverlet beneath which the dominant beast sleeps lightly and ever ready to awake. To preserve civilisation, we must deal scientifically with the brute element, using only genuine biological principles.
I didn’t quite realise until we started to put together our first cut of ‘Wonderstruck’ how much time is spent with no words spoken whatsoever.
Working backstage as a teenager made me realise there’s not much glamour in this profession – just lots of hard work. That’s a good thing to learn early on.
It is for me to realise my value and put in the effort to win big tournaments.
As an author, I realise, you’re on your own. You have to do everything you can to help The Book. If I make sure people know it’s out there, they can make up their own minds whether they want to read it.
Actors normally go to the gym to achieve a certain kind of fitness for a role but when you start playing a sport, then you realise that being athletically fit is a very different kind of fitness.
We get prompt feedback on social network. The overseas audience is quick to convey what they feel about a film and we realise whether we are up to date.
A lot of things in films are cheated with the use of camera tricks, so while it may feel unnatural to do, when you look at the result, you realise that it is right.
I write something that I believe I’ve made up, and it’s only when a friend later points it out to me that I realise I’ve been writing about myself again.
I don’t know about the hair. I’ve had it since I was a kid, and when I look at myself in the mirror, it looks quite normal. But then when I look at myself in a photo, I realise that my hair is basically bigger than my head! There’s quite a lot of interest in my hair, which is strange, as for me, it’s normal!
I won’t say there’s disrespect for the Indian home cook, but I was never exposed to that. Even in a semi-urban Indian family, you will find a maid. And once you meet these people, you realise they cook purely out of passion or love for the family.
I wasn’t good at being affable. You get beyond that and realise the attraction in any human being has more to do with what they give to someone rather than just being face candy.
I was fortunate enough to play in a number of finals, and I can still remember waking with butterflies in my stomach. It is at moments like those you realise why you fell in love with football in the first place.
2012 was the year I saw Twitter as a negative. More people need to realise that not everything they read is true and that Internet trolls are a real problem.
I was a good but not super serious student until about 10th grade, until I was about 14 or 15. Then I started to realise how competitive the world is. I started to meet kids who were more high-performing.
I don’t seek discomfort. But, very often, you realise that what you fear is actually quite ephemeral; something’s different, something’s unfamiliar; therefore, it must be worse.
Meeting people from different countries makes you realise that everyone around the world has the same needs and aspirations.
I’m trying to get my kids – in particular, my step-daughter Mary, who’s 12 – to recommend music to me. You reach a certain age and realise you haven’t kept up, but I don’t want to fall behind.
I don’t have any terrific self-esteem issues but I do sometimes realise I’ve been too lucky and that I’m over-praised. It makes me nervous. I have this sense of being overrated.
Electricity is a wonderful thing. Do you realise that if we didn’t have electricity, we’d be watching television by candle light?
Sport has made me realise that you have to be stubborn and to persevere to get the results. It might take longer in politics, but once you have the right goal and desire, you will reach it.
More are the names of God and infinite are the forms through which He may be approached. In whatever name and form you worship Him, through them you will realise Him.
A lot of young girls don’t realise how diverse the career opportunities are in games development. Many think that you need elite math skills and a vast knowledge of all things tech to work in games, and haven’t thought about avenues like design, producing, art, writing or composing.
The Bible is very resonant. It has everything: creation, betrayal, lust, poetry, prophecy, sacrifice. All great things are in the Bible, and all great writers have drawn from it and more than people realise, whether Shakespeare, Herman Melville or Bob Dylan.
I behaved worse than anybody for 15 years, and you have to pay the price for that. I used to blame other people, then therapy made me realise I had to change.
Most people travel outside of Australia. They don’t realise what we’ve got.
Guest roles are how you get initiated into the industry. It’s fun. Over the course of a few years you realise you’ve done many shows. You get a chance to prove yourself, and that’s how you get jobs because of people who have worked with you in the past and trust you.
I feel very grateful for the way I was brought up. I did not realise it then, but as I grew older and started writing and realised the material that was there was very strong, I felt very grateful that my life was complicated and that my identity was never clear but put me in a position that was always questioned.
When I was at drama school, I wanted to change the world, and thought I had some great wisdom to impart to people about humanity. Now that I’m older, I know enough to realise that I know nothing at all.
