I don’t have a horror film in me just because I don’t like to be scared. But I definitely have a documentary in me, and I certainly have dramas.
I feel like it’s big now with the passing of Mac Miller. Rest in peace, Mac Miller, who was a good friend of mine. That just showed people, like, it could happen to anybody. Just because you have fame or money, you’re not immune to negativity and depression and stress.
Just because I’m young doesn’t mean I didn’t work hard to get to where I am.
Just because ‘Planes’ is an animated movie doesn’t mean I don’t take my work seriously. You can always push yourself to be better.
Just because I am a celebrity doesn’t mean I can’t say, ‘Sorry.’
I stick to my own type when I go out, and I don’t make friends with people just because they’re celebrities.
The ‘Raining Gold’ video naturally took on one of the messages behind the song, which is you should never assume anything about someone or a situation just because it looks a certain way on the surface.
I got sent some cheese once. I’m not sure if that was saying something about my act, or just because I like cheese.
Just because you’re upfront with someone doesn’t mean you’re an honest person; you might just be someone in the passenger seat.
This industry is all about work, and just because Sundance exposed me to the world, it is my job to stay deserving in that world. The work never ends; the hustle just get harder, and you get stronger!
I love shopping in New York just because you walk around and find a little store you’ve never saw before, and you’re like, ‘Oh what’s that? This is my new favorite place.’ I love that about New York.
Just because a group does not take its decisions by voting does not mean they have no understanding of the essence of democracy.
On films, you have the liberty of working out the details, the psychology, taking maybe more risks and takes than you can in television just because you can’t be figuring things out on the day.
The tour life definitely puts strains on your body, not just because of the dancing but because of the fact that you are traveling into the wee hours of the day, getting up early, going to sound check – just the grueling process of it all.
We’re just into toys, whether it’s motorcycles or race cars or computers. I’ve got the Palm Pilot right here with me, I’ve got the world’s smallest phone. Maybe it’s just because I’m still a big little kid and I just love toys, you know?
Just because you’re passionately interested in something doesn’t mean it has to be your career. You might have to look for more than one passion. Some passions may afford a career and some may not.
All white people in the United States have benefited from a white supremacy. But does that mean that a white person should be viewed badly because they turn against a white supremacist policy? Just because you’ve benefited from something shouldn’t disable you from repudiating it.
People evolve and it’s important to not stop evolving just because you’ve reached ‘adulthood.’

This is the other thing: we make the cost of raising kids higher than it has to be just because we feel they need all this stuff, like gadgets, certain schools, and activities that are nice but aren’t really necessary.
Getting divorced just because you don’t love a man is almost as silly as getting married just because you do.
What is the best music is impossible to define. Just because it’s played by a virtuoso player, doesn’t mean it’s great music. It might not reflect the soul of a people, which is really my criteria for great music.
People aren’t going to support an artist just because they have an audio file. They have to feel a real connection.
Just because I made it look easy doesn’t mean that it was and you don’t work hard and become a Hall of Famer without working day in and day out.
When I saw Adele, I thought: ‘I’ll give it an hour before people say I was her,’ just because I was fat. When you watch ‘X Factor,’ you can bet your bottom dollar, every single fat singer sounds like me as far as the judges are concerned. Can you imagine if they did that with every black artist?
Just because we say networks are important doesn’t mean that networks explain everything. We’re just adding additional information. Networks don’t work like a match – they work like a magnifying glass.

Just because a company falls doesn’t invalidate what we can learn by studying that company when it was at its historical best.
I’m not the type that’s going to sit and preach to people if they don’t need it just because I’ve been around the block a few times.
We sought justice because equal pay for equal work is an American value. That fight took me ten years. It took me all the way to the Supreme Court. And, in a 5-4 decision, they stood on the side of those who shortchanged my pay, my overtime, and my retirement just because I am a woman.
Some of the snowballs have a kind of animal energy. Not just because of the materials inside them, but in the way that they appear caged, captured.
Just because I’m sassy and have a mouth on me doesn’t mean I’m coming from a negative place.
Just because I do what I do doesn’t mean I escaped adolescence, all the bumps and bruises that go along with it.
So I don’t think I’m gonna pull my head into my shell just because a bunch of people start acting like idiots.
There are times when what you do will be mysterious to everyone… times when you have to change directions before people are ready. Just because someone does something that critics don’t like or understand doesn’t mean you’re failing as a musician. It probably means you’re growing.
New York may be the city that never sleeps, but Shanghai doesn’t even sit down, and not just because there is no room.
Just because you have opposition doesn’t make you a great leader.
The thing about a hero, is even when it doesn’t look like there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, he’s going to keep digging, he’s going to keep trying to do right and make up for what’s gone before, just because that’s who he is.
Just because you’ve got a hit doesn’t mean you’ve made it.
Just because you liked something as a youngster doesn’t mean you have to like it as an adult. You can change your taste a little bit on the sweets and things like that.
Traditional social media, in the view of our company, has become a bit repetitive. It doesn’t feel very good to be marketed to by your friends. Snapchat is different because it says, look, friends aren’t valuable to you just because they can get you into a cool party.
I like making sci-fi movies because I like watching sci-fi movies. I like watching horror. I like being in a horror movie. I’m a fan. My perspective’s a little different just because I get to participate as well as spectate.
A lot of people have told me, ‘You’re not this and so can’t play that,’ and I can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve been told I’m not sexy. I just go: ‘I’m a lot of things. Just because I don’t wear my sexiness overtly doesn’t mean that I can’t become that girl for a role.
It’s always agonising to separate my life as an actress and personal life. Just because I’m happy with my acting life doesn’t mean I’m happy with my personal life. I’m always making an effort to balance between the two.
Just because you’ve been on stage doesn’t mean you can dance.
In 2017, it’s discouraging that it seems like we’re going backward. And that’s not just because of Trump; that’s because we, as humans, condone discrimination; it’s a human issue. It’s part of something bigger.
Just because we don’t recognise someone from an area of our own lives, somehow it has become easy to simply ignore them and walk away.
As far as things I avoid, I always avoid following trends just because they’re trends.
I am not one of those actors who will abandon my flagship serial, my main claim to fame, just because I’ve done a hit movie.
We should never rush into folly just because other nations are practicing it.
If you think about it, a lot of great horror films have bad sequels just because the market demands you to make the other one right away. Thank God no one in the ‘Evil Dead’ family thinks that way.
Just because you work in the fashion industry, it doesn’t mean you live your life in fashion.
Just because you live 20 years or 100 years doesn’t make it less meaningful. They’re both short amount of times. So all we can do is just live in that time, whatever time we’re given.
I had racially prejudiced comments directed at me on different blogs. People think that just because you’re in the spotlight, you’re fair game. It’s hard, and I don’t think you’re ready at any age for it. Thankfully, I have some great fans who got me through it.
I understand that there are a few roles out there and tons of actors. Just because you don’t get the big break doesn’t mean you’re not worthy or that what you have to offer isn’t valid.
