When Dad heard ‘The One and Only,’ he said: ‘That’s a smash.’ Dad played the demo through the speakers at Abbey Road, where we were recording. I was a huge Nik Kershaw fan and was desperate to meet him, but everyone else hated the song.
I think it is the weak and the young and the minorities that you need to look after to get a healthy creative environment – to get a lot of choices, a lot of different styles of music, a lot experimental stuff that everyone else feeds off.
I like to eat chocolate and pizza – that’s my vice! – just like everyone else, but if I do it I have to keep it under control.
We don’t want to do what everyone else does. We want to create trends. We like to think outside of the box.
I wasn’t born with nerves. You have to take yourself out of the equation and think about everyone else – you’re the entertainer.
I don’t know about everyone else, but I really loved lunch and recess because it was an opportunity to get carried away with your imagination.
You know, I was chubby when I was a little girl. And I have all those issues everyone else has. But I try not to. And I’ve learned over the years that it’s such a waste of time. And people like me whether I’m a little bit fatter or not.
It’s fine to have armed guards, but don’t then tell everyone else they can’t own a gun.
When I was in my 20s, and even though I was studying medicine, I didn’t ever really think that my body would fail. Now I’m in my 40s, I have to face a different reality – I, like everyone else, am slowly falling apart.
I learned it is important to be confident in what you have and drown out all of the outside noise. You can’t be distracted by what everyone else is doing and how they are doing it.
I didn’t want to be like everyone else. I wanted to be better. If I did what everybody else did, then why would you look up to me? Why would I set an example?
I’m a huge believer in the importance of vacations for leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyone else. I work extremely hard – usually 70+ hours a week.
I think there’s something fundamentally wrong with thinking that there’s a God who looks after you but kills everyone else. There’s something, if not immoral, then gross, about it.
At West Ham, I was the last person to be offered a scholarship. I remember an Under 18 match against Fulham. I was 16 and had to prove myself. Everyone else already had their scholarship. It was probably one of my best games. Knowing that every day I’d have to fight has made me into the person I am today.
It was different to what everyone else was doing. It was very hard to pigeonhole The Cranberries. And we were just huge; it was just sensational.
As I grow older, I realise that just because I’m so obsessed with the truth, it doesn’t mean that everyone else in my life is equally comfortable with it.
I’m all about zagging when everyone else is zigging.
I don’t want to change; I just want to be like everyone else. I’m nothing special.
I want to avoid becoming too styled, too ‘done’ and too generic. You see people as they go through their career, and they just become more and more like everyone else. They start out with something individual about them, but it gets lost.
I was living down in this awful little redneck town in Oregon, and everyone else was living in Seattle, so we rented a house in Portland, between the two.
This is an important thing: People who live in the mainstream and the status quo think that everyone else is there to serve them.
I’ve been so low sometimes and when everyone else would be so high because I didn’t like myself.
I think a lot of people love to convolute what everyone else does in order to disempower women.
You just keep your feet on the floor. I never feel I get too high and I never feel I get too low about things. Everyone else may deal with things like that differently but that is just how I go about it.
I was bullied and picked on because I was so different to everyone else, and I definitely didn’t believe or even know I was fabulous back then. But those hard times made me everything I am today. It’s all water under the bridge now, but being bullied and going through adversity definitely made me stronger.
I am not really that big into fashion, where I am looking at trends or what everyone else is doing.
Remember you’re not entitled to anything. You have to earn your success every day, and you will make mistakes like everyone else.
The only people playing the roles of classic rock stars are hip-hop artists, now. Kanye’s stage persona, and the way he approaches making albums, and the way he wants to be better than everyone else? That’s reminiscent of Freddie Mercury. That’s reminiscent of the Beatles.
I used to do interviews – I still do – interviews every day, all day. And you go from maybe doing a couple of professional interviews, where you can hear the sound right, to everyone else sounds like they’re at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
The only person who really impressed me with making new music is Cudi. Everyone else seems to be jumping on the same music, the producer-made stuff, but the one person that’s made new music to me is Cudi.
One of the things that happens to everyone who is grief-stricken, who has lost someone, is there comes a time when everyone else just wants you to get over it, but of course you don’t get over it. You get stronger; you try and live on; you endure; you change; but you don’t get over it. You carry it with you.
This is the crux of the problem: because the Republicans and the right wing have been successful in almost eliminating unions, everyone else has suffered as a result.
If I had the day off and knew everyone else was voting, I wouldn’t miss it. It would become a routine part of my responsibility as a citizen – like paying taxes, only less soul crushing.
While I know myself as a creation of God, I am also obligated to realize and remember that everyone else and everything else are also God’s creation.
Actually I did, because I saw the film like everyone else, ten years ago and I remembered some of it. I just wanted to see it, to kind of remember the tone a little bit.
Since I’m a contrarian, I don’t want to go along with what everyone else thinks.
Everyone wants to demagogue everyone else. That may be good politics, but it’s awful policy.
From Noah Baumbach, I learned to have a strict no cell phone policy on set. There is nothing that bums you out more than looking over and seeing somebody on their smartphone, and that goes for actors and everyone else.
I’m sure like everyone else I’m not always the happiest if I don’t do a good job in quali or the race or whatever, so I think beating myself up sometimes makes me work harder.
I do what I wanna do and I see who I wanna see. And when you get into your forties, it’s like being a teenager again, really. Everyone else in their forties thinks they can chat to you.
Chuck Lorre and everyone else on ‘Mom’ did such a great job of balancing that line that rides tragedy and comedy. They make you cry, and then they make you crack up about it.
I think people find a lot to relate to in my social media, being a mom, and trying to live my best life, and I’m a fan of Oprah and other things people are fans of, and my heart breaks when there are tragedies, like everyone else, and I want to help.
Everyone else who has fought the Klitschko brothers has been scared.
I didn’t have a school life like everyone else because I started working at a young age. That’s what I regret.
I have no limo. In cities, I usually hail a taxi like everyone else.
I grew up with a single pair of shoes until I grew into the next size. My parents believed in the American dream and the power of education but didn’t have the money to send me to college. I realized early on that I needed to go against the flow and be better than everyone else to support my family.
There’s no need to dress like everyone else. It’s much more fun to create your own look.
Everyone else wants to hear ‘I wanna be Top 5,’ or ‘I want to be winning a Grand Slam.’ Those are all goals of mine, but I’m not going to put a time limit on them.
My politics were really radical when I was younger, and then I moderated like everyone else does when they start having kids.
I’d probably be a super wealthy guy if I had sat around writing songs and getting them placed like everyone else I know. But I write songs about people or after I meet them and they’re somewhat biographical – they’re fiction but also non-fiction.
We try to make sensible decisions with the facts in front of us. The problem with sensible decisions is that so is everyone else.
You can’t be rich unless everyone else agrees that you’re rich.
That time, when everyone else is asleep, and it’s just me and my little man, that’s the best time I’ve ever spent in my life. I just get to love on him. It, literally, is the best.
The French league is clearly developing. It is really pleasing to see. Paris, for me, is above everyone else in France. When they come for you, it is always attractive.
It was so important to have stuff outside of rugby so you have a life balance. I took a lot of criticism for that earlier in my career and thank God I ignored what everyone else said and did what I was always going to do.
I can’t identify a race of people in this country who are more committed to the health of this country, who believe more in the Constitution, who believe more in equality and liberation and fairness to everyone else than black people.
