With both Caddyshack and Vacation, it’s not like the subjects were serious enough that they engaged my interest for another round. I love the characters, and the actors were great, but I didn’t see the need to make another Vacation movie.
Generally, I try to stay in a certain shape all year round.
I drive a motorbike, so there is the whiff of the grim reaper round every corner, especially in London.
You pick guys in the first round – whenever you pick guys – you pick them for a reason.
I didn’t get round to having children until I was 35, and then I wasn’t around very much.
I like to be lean. If I get too bulky I can’t move well and I like to move. When I’m not training, I get really round and soft.
The wheel goes round and round and comes back, and opportunities are given again. You just have to remember that.
I was driving in Norway and found myself on pure ice. I lightly pressed the brakes but I still started skidding. The car spun round and round and collided head on with another car coming in the other direction. There was a five or ten-second period where I blacked out.
There are some people who want to throw their arms round you simply because it is Christmas; there are other people who want to strangle you simply because it is Christmas.
On October 20, 2012 – 17 months and two days after I was diagnosed with that rare form of bone cancer – I stepped back into the ring at the Barclays Center to fight Josh Luteran. He didn’t make it out of the first round. Just 1:13 in, it was over. Knockout. I was back.
I’ve tried my hardest to bribe my chef, but my team have been clever and hired someone who not only is not bribeable but who chases me round the house and makes sure I eat what he’s cooked, and he lays out my vitamin pills and supplements in front of me so I can’t ‘forget’ to take them.
I live in a Moomin house in East London which I fill with blankets and nice crockery and get people round for dinner. When you travel a lot, you feel rootless and adrift – this is my sanctuary, where I can breathe out.
I had an obsession with underarm shields – pointy ones, round ones, full ones, half ones.
I’ve always loved life, and I’ve never known what’s ahead. I love not knowing what might be round the corner. I love serendipity.
Whenever, at a party, I have been in the mood to study fools, I have always looked for a great beauty: they always gather round her like flies around a fruit stall.
I spent a career carrying typically either an M16 or an M4 Carbine. An M4 Carbine fires a .223 caliber round, which is 5.56 mm at about 3000 feet per second.
Every one soon or late comes round by Rome.
I know Los Angeles has it better than Chicago when it comes to produce year round!
I’m not terribly well read. My wife forces books into my hands and insists I read them, which I’m grateful to her for. She made me read ‘War and Peace.’ The whole thing. It was amazing, but I had to hide it. You can’t walk round reading ‘War and Peace’ – it’s like you’re in a comedy sketch and you think you’re smart.
Look at Willis McGahee. Perfect example. Totally shredded knee. Comes back and gets picked in the first round. It’s pretty hard to have a career-ender, unless I have a neck thing. But either way, I know I’m insured.
The thing is, I love a celebrity interview. Doesn’t matter how big or how small. It could be Hillary Clinton or the guy who made it to the third round of ‘Popstars,’ I’ll read it.
For a long time, images of black men with big lips and a round head were used to make us feel inferior, but it doesn’t need to be like that, we don’t need to self’loathe. We can change the narrative.
Few years ago, I was one of the busiest actresses in Sandalwood, working round the clock. I was so busy that my assistants had a tough time adjusting to my hectic schedule.
Veganism is a point of contention all year round. So much so that many vegans cut themselves off from the rest of society, huddling together for warmth and smugness, and using online forums to vent their disgust at the morally corrupt dairy- and meat-eating savages who make up most of the populace.
I went to Cork, Ireland, and stood on the dock some of my ancestors had left from. I felt their ghosts gather round me, and I cried to imagine what it must have felt like – leaving that beautiful land and those beloved people, knowing it was forever.
To sing a simple round is truly an enlightening experience.
I love round people, I love skinny people. I love people in general; we’ve got to get past labels and stop being so critical about everything.
Food makes me happy. Make me work round the clock, but just feed me first!
I thought if you tapped out, you lost the round. Come to find out, you actually lose the fight.
I don’t find an advantage or disadvantage in being a woman when reporting. What little advantages there might be in some instances is cancelled out by the basic lack of lavatories round the world for women.
An aria in an opera – Handel’s ‘Ombra mai fu,’ for example – gets along with an incredibly small number of words and ideas and a large amount of variation and repetition. That’s the beauty of it. It’s not taxing to the listener’s intelligence because if you haven’t heard it the first time round, it’ll come around again.
Once you get into the NFL, it doesn’t matter what draft pick you are, what round you are, if you’re undrafted or not. It’s football time again. The draft, all of that doesn’t matter anymore.
There was an undercurrent of poverty throughout my childhood. We lived with my grandmother in her two-bedroom flat, and I slept with my parents. We had cheap holidays, I had to save for my bike and get a paper round as soon as I was old enough.
There’s been rumors going round. I never confirm any of them.
In my opinion, the Doha Round is the most important thing that we can do to reduce inequalities, create opportunities, and develop the poorest countries, face up to the struggle against terrorism and strengthen democracy.
I know that if I play well, money will come and not the other way round.
Thinking back to how it fell apart for Mourinho at Chelsea, I do have some sympathy for him. At most clubs it is the manager who determines the long-term stability of the players but at Chelsea it seems very much the other way round.
Spin Me Round was number one all over the world, everywhere. It changed the face of pop music, no question. We took technology further than Trevor Horn.
The only way round is through.
There was a time when a man was so convinced that the world was round that he was determined to prove it.
If we fought like the old days, with no time limit, it would be better to work. We only have five minutes to work per round so it’s complicated, especially because everybody knows that my ground game is good.
Religion has nothing to do with God. It’s a fundamental attitude of human beings, who ask about the origins of life and what happens after death. For many, the answer is a personal god. In my opinion, it’s religion that produces God, not the other way round.
The quarter finals is always an exciting round because you know you’re one match away from that one table situation: where the magic really starts to happen at the Crucible and where it starts to come into its own.
Daleks scared the hell out of me, to the point where I wouldn’t go round to another boy’s house because he had Dalek wallpaper in his bedroom.
It’s harder to score well in a slow round. The tendency is to overthink shots while you’re waiting and become mentally exhausted. Instead, chat with your playing partners about anything but golf. Concentrate on each shot for no more than a minute. You’ll stay fresh.
The parents’ job is to be there for their kids, not the other way round. Troubles between parents need to be talked through with friends and not visited on the children.
The mullet has made a comeback, of sorts, and it looks great on young people. But I think if I was walking round with a mullet 25 years later I’d just look like a bloke who’s stuck in the 80s.
I had to make a change. It was no slight on my staff either. We’d all been at Boro for seven years. But certain players had got too familiar with the set-up. I had to turn it round. Terry was the one man I could think of to do it. So I went for him.
I don’t want to sound like Catherine Cookson but I’ve worked since I was eight, with a paper round and in a fruit and veg shop. Taking a pay cut won’t demotivate me, not at all. It’s not about money in the first place. It’s about the job.
I’ve had a private pilot’s license for years and flown all round the U.K. and over to France.
I used to see Triumph TR7s and E-Type Jags, and I used to think, ‘One day, I’m gonna have one of those.’ I remember seeing an E-Type and walking round it 40 or 50 times.
How many stories have you read that aren’t true, stories about me and Angie being married or fighting or splitting up? And when we don’t split up, there’s a whole new round that we’ve made up and we’re back together again!
I hate how old people get in my way when I’m swimming. You’re trying to get into the zone and normally, if there’s someone faster than you, you get out of the way, but old people don’t; they’re like, you can go round me. I give a little tut when I pass them.
I started singing in pubs and clubs around Belfast when I was 10. My dad is a musician, and he took me ’round; I impersonated Tina Turner and Shirley Bassey, and the crowd couldn’t believe what was coming out of this little girl.
