I would probably choose supporting roles if I had to make a choice. It’s actually a really hard thing to say. It’s all on a role-by-role basis, ultimately. I shouldn’t be so quick to say that. I feel like you’re given greater license to be colorful and eccentric in supporting roles, and that’s interesting to me.
I could handle the basketball but I wasn’t quick enough to move defensively. Offensively, I was fine. I could get around, I could do stuff, but defensively I wasn’t quick enough. I couldn’t keep up. That was the biggest thing. And that was at the Division II level.

I’ve cooked plenty of meals when I was sad, lonely, depressed, angry, bored, and/or under the weather. My primary aim in these circumstances is generally to cheer myself up, to fill my stomach with something warm so I can feel comforted and fed, usually just with a quick soup or an omelet.
When people are telling stories on screen, you can show the reactions of people, play it off those reactions, and it can be fun. But when it’s someone just giving an opinion on things, even if the opinion is kind of interesting, that is potentially deadly. It has to be really quick.
School was pretty good about letting me take up music and that’s where I had my first musical ideas and first said, ‘Yeah, I’m going to be a musician.’ I just had to do a quick stop gap in the army first.

YouTube is so quick and so instant, and you make a video, and you can upload it the same day, whereas with a book, you have to go through a lot of time and a lot of people and a lot of processes.

Internet marketing entrepreneurs have truly opened my eyes to just how important a quick turnaround time can be. Often times, an interview they conduct with me today is online by the next morning. The interviewee is then able to start making money less than 24 hours after the initial interview.
I already accepted that I can’t jump no more. I’m not as fast as I used to be. I accepted that already.

Sweat doesn’t fall off you. The water just accumulates until it gets too big and agitated and falls off like a sphere of water. It then floats around until it hits something. It takes a lot of water to fall off. Usually it just hangs on, so you get a quick build-up of sweat when working out.
Everyday… well, if I’m doing it myself, I have my five-minute makeup routine, which is I do tinted moisturizer, and then I do a quick concealer, and I use our bronzer every day. And then I have to curl my lashes, and then I do our Quickie mascara, and that’s it.
The dog is often quick to resent a kick, be it from man or beast, but I have never known him to show anger at the door that slammed to and hit him. Probably, if the door held him by his tail or his limb, it would quickly receive the imprint of his teeth.

I’m volatile, up-tempo, quick to react and passionate. People often think all that high-energy stuff is just for the stage, but that’s me. I like to express myself. When I was younger I would listen to the Jam in my bedroom and jump around in excitement to the music.

The immediacy of the technology of the web allows us, as songwriters, to write something very sharp and quick.

There’s no quick fix for a broken heart.
These days with the web, you can burn out a character really quick.

Who makes quick use of the moment is a genius of prudence.
