It’s very hard to turn your back once you’re aware of what’s going on, and you’re aware of the injustices, and you’re aware of the civilian casualties. It’s much easier if you have no idea and you’ve never seen it.
Most Canadians previously had no idea what went on in the residential schools. You tell Canadians the last one closed in 1996, they are appalled. So now that Canadians are aware of residential schools, you’d think there would be a huge impetus for progress. It hasn’t, and that’s amazing.
I get the greatest feeling when I’m singing. It’s other-worldly. Your feet are anchored into the Earth and into this energy force that comes up through your feet and goes up the top of your head and maybe you’re holding hands with the angels or the stars, I have no idea.
Actually, I had no idea what shooting hoops was or were. I thought dunking was something you did with a beignet and a cup of steaming coffee. I wasn’t exactly sure what a Knick was.
I remember Michael saying, ‘Rich and famous? It’s much better to be just rich’. I didn’t quite get it to begin with. But he’s right. You lose anonymity. I say to my family that you’ve no idea until you lose it how precious anonymity is.
I started speaking about what I was dealing with through my music, and 4 million women responded and said, ‘Us too, Mary.’ And I didn’t know that everyone was hurting like I was hurting. I had no idea.
The doctor heard my heartbeat and found out I had an irregular heartbeat. I was not symptomatic or aware of my symptoms. I had no idea that this could make me five times more likely to have a stroke than somebody who doesn’t have this.
You know what Michael did? He got me the most fabulous place to live. If you read the tabloids, it’s the enclave of the enclave, Beverly Hills, which I have no idea what an enclave is. If it’s chic-chic, it’s cool.
Everything has always been so organic for me; I have no idea what I would be doing if it wasn’t for music. Music forever!
When I made ‘Hard Boiled,’ I had no idea that it would be released to an international audience. I just wanted to make a film to team up my two favorite actors, Tony Leung and Chow Yun-Fat.
I’m not fascinated by one particular case, but by knowledge that I had no idea was out there.
What I love about the creative process, and this may sound naive, but it is this idea that one day there is no idea, and no solution, but the next day there is an idea. I find that incredibly exciting and conceptually actually remarkable.
I wrote my first novel-length story when I was 14 but had no idea what to do with it. Brisbane was a long way from the publishing industry then. Nowhere’s a long way from the publishing industry now.
You should carefully study the Art of Reasoning, as it is what most people are very deficient in, and I know few things more disagreeable than to argue, or even converse with a man who has no idea of inductive and deductive philosophy.
When I was 14, I had no idea who I was, and it was so confusing. So to see strong, confident girls, that I get to be around all the time, it’s so amazing. It’s reinvigorating for me.
I’m not really sure where it comes from, but every time I meet someone who says ‘I really want to be an entrepreneur’ but has no idea what they want to do, I really just think: ‘This person is totally aimless.’
Surely it’s no coincidence that the Era of the AUMF, the Era of Endless War, is also the Golden Era of the Chickenhawk. We keep electing leaders who, on the most basic experiential level, literally have no idea what they’re doing.
I have no idea why we bleed maize and blue, but we do. There’s something about Michigan. Maybe it’s that we’re less jaded out there in the Midwest, I don’t know, but it’s a love of what we do and each other that brings us together. It’s just a magic place.
When we started Airbnb, I had no idea about the people we would meet or the friendships I would make.
The longer I’ve been doing this, the more I’ve realized that you have no idea what kinds of roles are possible for you – dream roles can take you by surprise. That being said, I need to play Hamlet one day. I’d also love to be in a play that I have written myself.
I never knew my father. He’d disappeared from the scene before I was born, and I still have no idea who he is. Perhaps strangely, it’s never bothered me; I certainly don’t believe it’s really affected me.
We once believed we were auteurs, but we weren’t. We had no idea, really. Film is over. It’s sad nobody is really exploring it. But what to do? And anyway, with mobile phones and everything, everyone is now an auteur.
I would call universities and community colleges and say, ‘I really want to go to college. How do I get to college? What do I do?’ And they would say, ‘You have to get an application. You have to get letters of recommendation.’ It was terrifying. I had no idea what I was doing.
I never look forward, because I have no idea about how any of it happened to getting here. I’ve no idea how the next five years are going to be.
Before the group left, Gary asked for my phone number, and the next day he called to ask me to dinner that night. I had no idea he was married, but I found out that night.
I have no idea why people want to watch puppets be the slightly meaner version of the weirdo holding them. It’s beyond my comprehension.
I enjoy going on hikes, and I enjoy the occasional yoga. The one thing I’m good at athletically – and I don’t know if I’m good at it anymore because I haven’t done this in a while – I can throw a pretty good spiral in football, but I have no idea how to play.
When I set out to research the story of the Culper Spy Ring, I had no idea where it would take me.
I have an irrational fear that something bad is going to happen to me when I’m drinking out of a water fountain. I have no idea why.
I didn’t really know anything about Margot Fonteyn. I’d never really been a ballet child, so I had no idea what an incredibly huge icon she was, not just in terms of a creative icon – she was also a style icon. I had no idea she was up there with Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Onassis in terms of that kind of image.
In London, I live with one of the other ‘Strictly’ dancers, Amy Dowden. She got me a chocolate advent calendar and I had no idea what it was. I’d never seen one before!
I grew up when people were afraid to ‘come out’ as gay. If you asked me how many gay kids I grew up with or went to school with, I would have said none – which of course could not have been true. The truth is I have no idea how many confused and frightened kids I grew up with. They are still out there.
I had no idea the Vikings were interested. I was actually expecting other teams because the Green Bay Packers and three or four other teams asked for film after the combine in Dallas, and the Vikings weren’t one of them.
I had no idea ‘Moon River’ would do so well. I was too busy working to think about it.
As a teenager I had no idea that I had the potential to win an Olympic gold medal and my athletic career developed only by lucky circumstances.
I tend not to have any references to anything. I just jump into the script in front of me. If you reference too much, you have no idea if the performances are right.
I went into college undeclared. I had no idea what I wanted to do, but I knew that music was obviously this central big important thing in my life that I was gonna keep doing.
Nicola Barker is both prodigiously talented and admirably fearless. I have loved her books. But for some time, I had little or no idea what the point of the story of Sri Ramakrishna was. In fact, he was one of the outstanding men of 19th-century India.
‘Brisco’ was the first show I created, and of course, at the time I had no idea what a special experience it was because I didn’t have a frame of reference. After it was over I was like, ‘Damn. Shoot. That was something special.’ I’m still upset that it got cancelled.
If you were to ask me to speak Swedish or Dutch or German, I have no idea if I could pull that off!
I have no idea if I will go for an arranged marriage or love marriage.
I have no idea how to use social media for anything other than forwarding a good fart joke.
Facebook and Google are essentially an advertising duopoly, and we have almost no idea how their algorithms work.
I was really across-the-board, like a nutcase. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, so I just did everything. I was even part of FHA, Future Homemakers of America. How lost was I?
Everyone knows that metaphors are important, yet we have no idea why.
I have no idea if some societies, anthropologically speaking, aren’t really suited for democracy. I don’t think that’s true.
Mariah is a beautiful and talented person, and I’ve had a crush on her for as long as I can remember. Every day, my respect for Mariah continues to grow higher. She’s a caring, warm and funny person. People have no idea how funny she is! I feel like I’ve always known she was my forever love.
I’m inspired when I find out about something that I didn’t know was a remake. An example is, of course, stuff like ‘The Fly,’ or ‘The Thing,’ or even ‘The Blob.’ For our generation, all those things, whether it was ‘The Blob’ or ‘The Fly’ or something else, we had no idea they were remakes.
I always believed in God, I would go to mass most of the time, but I had no idea of the calling to holiness.
