My first marriage was not happy. I married him because I was impressed that he knew which wines to order and how to leave his visiting card. Ridiculous reasons.
I collect art, and I drink wine… things that I like that I had never been exposed to. But I never said, ‘I’m going to buy art to impress this crowd.’ That’s just ridiculous to me. I don’t live my life like that, because how could you be happy with yourself?
Skiing is ridiculous.
Great men of action… never mind on occasion being ridiculous; in a sense it is part of their job, and at times they all are.
I can’t imagine putting my name on a t-shirt. For someone to wear my name? Me? It’s ridiculous.
In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again. We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.
To me, the idea that any kind of disaster helps create a nation seems a ridiculous one. There was no family in the house on the land next to me, and there might have been.
I know what I do for a living is ridiculous.
I often feel a discomfort, a kind of embarrassment, when I explain elementary-particle physics to laypeople. It all seems so arbitrary – the ridiculous collection of fundamental particles, the lack of pattern to their masses.

My artwork gets stolen all the time; it’s ridiculous.
I got a lot of influences. I got relevant influences today. I got influences that you wouldn’t even think of. I’m very influenced by Marilyn Manson. His style is ridiculous. Like, honestly, if you want me to keep it 100, Marilyn Manson has as much style as Kanye West and Pharrell Williams.

I briefly thought of becoming a priest but quickly saw that would be ridiculous.
The idea that the Hispanic vote hinges on one issue – immigration – is the most ridiculous and patronizing notion.
I mean, I hate when actors talk about how hard their job is. It’s ridiculous, because we have the best job in the world.
I find respect for a mediocre British composer, as opposed to a really good American, ridiculous because they automatically respect a composer if he’s from England.
You’re always asking yourself, are you doing the best for your child? And other parents let you know if you’re not, just not in a direct way. There’s a sense of competition, which is ridiculous because you know deep down you’re all suffering.
I’m not the sexiest thing in the world, I feel actors who have to ‘play’ sexy lose all their sex appeal. When they start with the tongue and the heavy lids, it looks so ridiculous. I think you just have to be yourself.
I remember in the early nineties people saying the hat was just for old women, but that’s ridiculous.
I was a scapegoat. The media had to put responsibility on somebody, and I was chosen. They felt free to say that because someone was thin they were anorexic, which is ridiculous.

We are never so ridiculous through what we are as through what we pretend to be.
It is ridiculous to think we can erase racism in South Africa, but through theater there can be a genuine attempt to move on with our lives and build a better country.
We’re surrounded by violence, and we see so much of it on TV, especially the news programs. We almost become numb. And that forces filmmakers to try to outdo themselves… They say, ‘Look what I can do,’ and it becomes like a showoff thing. To me, that’s ridiculous. Filmmaking isn’t a contest!
It’s 2015, and I’m the first female coach in any of the major sports. That’s ridiculous!
Uncle Fester always intrigued me. I certainly always enjoyed his kind of humor. He’s just full of mischief in a kind of macabre way. I don’t see anything twisted about it. It’s sort of ridiculous and wacky. It’s sort of fun.
I have received nasty e-mails, messages on Twitter and ridiculous comments, not only about my size, but my family.
I mean, art for art’s sake is ridiculous. Art is for the sake of one’s needs.
I believe that Jesus was, you know, the Son of God. And I understand that… we need to be really, really respectful to people who find that ridiculous and… preposterous.
Film festivals are usually unpleasant experiences on some level. The lines are ridiculous, the crowds are ridiculous, or the schedules are impossibly arranged: ‘You say that there’s a film you really want to see? Try the 8 A.M. show! Oh, it’s too bad you didn’t get to bed until 2 A.M. the night before.’
Every milieu has something ridiculous about it – film-making, the music world, painting – because people who take themselves seriously become funny pretty quickly.
It’s ridiculous, the people I get to work with.
I don’t knock material rappers, but let me hear it in a different way. How many songs do I have to hear about rims on a car? It’s ridiculous. There’s no substance. It’s a hollow shell.
I saw Deep Purple live once and I paid money for it and I thought, ‘Geez, this is ridiculous.’ You just see through all that sort of stuff. I never liked those Deep Purples or those sort of things. I always hated it. I always thought it was a poor man’s Led Zeppelin.
To think that there’s one version of a man is ridiculous.
‘2001’ is a really interesting movie because it came out in 1968, and everybody thought that that was possible, and look how ridiculous that was. We don’t have ships like that, and you know, nobody in 1968 was going, ‘Oh, that’ll never happen!’ But of course it never happened. We’re not even close to it.
We’re taking part in a divine comedy and we should realise that the play is always a comedy, in that we’re all ultimately ridiculous.
Hello? Three words: Benicio Del Toro, which, incidentally, is Spanish for ‘he wants me.’ It is just ridiculous how hot he is. I feel the same way about Benicio as I did when I was a kid lusting after David Cassidy.
I’m ridiculous in my oversharing; my mom and sister are very open but a little more judicious than me… and my father is a decidedly private person.
If you were to hold me to a standard of, ‘What are you doing, singing about a scratch-off ticket at your level of success?’ then my music’s gonna be ridiculous.
We don’t like to be forced off our own tour, onto foreign soil, to qualify for our Olympic teams. That’s ridiculous.
The whole idea from some of our opponents that armed security makes us less safe is completely ridiculous. If that’s true, armed security makes us less safe, let’s just go ahead and remove it from everywhere.
Every coach talks to their players. Imagine not talking to Lionel Messi – that would be ridiculous.
A frustration I have is that a lot of people increasingly seem to equate an advertising business model with somehow being out of alignment with your customers. I think it’s the most ridiculous concept.

What was frustrating about Armageddon was the time I spent not doing anything. It was a big special effects film, and I wasn’t crazy about pretending I was in outer space. It feels ridiculous.
There are times when you see how ridiculous is this life, how ludicrous it is, you know, leaving your house every morning and being followed by paparazzi.
You don’t want to get too ridiculous on the weekdays.
Racism is ridiculous no matter where it’s coming from.
Dallas is an extraordinary place in it’s own right. The first thing about Dallas that you can’t get away from, particularly when I arrived, you’ve got no idea of the heat in this place. It’s over 100 degrees, and with that the humidity is ridiculous. I mean, people don’t live here, armadillos live here.
It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story.
I personally am not religious. I think, put into the wrong hands, it’s incredibly dangerous. It’s the reason for most of the wars that have been fought around the world, and it’s pretty ridiculous when you think about what they’re actually arguing over.
Might I be ridiculous? Might my career in music be laughable? Yeah, that’s possible, but that’s certainly not my intention.

What makes me laugh is ‘Masterchef,’ with that ridiculous thing they always say, ‘cooking doesn’t get any tougher than this!.’
There’s this ridiculous idea that I’m a gender traitor because I’m not a feminist. I’m supposed to be part of a sisterhood: you’re automatically supposed to support all women just because you have the same genitals as them, which doesn’t make sense.
As physics has proven, we’re ultimately particulate matter, which means we are all one. That’s why racial and gender bias is so ridiculous.
